Volume 1: The Battle of Songhu Chapter 17 My gun is my life
Shashi, the station of the 19th Independent Brigade.
The morning training had ended, and five hundred recruits had been assembled on the playground.
Xu Jiu was pacing back and forth in front of the queue of recruits with his arms belts in his hands, and behind him, five hundred old rifles had been piled up into dozens of tips, ready to be shot for the recruits.
According to Xu Shijiu's original plan, at least three months of training time should be given to these recruits, and with three months of basic training, all kinds of technical and tactical essentials will be almost learned, and these recruits will have a certain ability to survive on the battlefield, and they will be able to grow up quickly when they see blood.
Two months is still a bit short, and many technical and tactical essentials have not been practiced, but there is no way, the battlefield in Xuzhou is tight, and the national government has no troops to adjust, so these recruits can only be transferred to the battlefield, in fact, the recruits of the 74th Army are lucky, and the recruits of many troops have only been trained for less than half a month before going to the battlefield.
Xu Shijiu looked at the front row from the front, compared with two months ago, these recruits have changed very obviously in terms of skin color, eyes and momentum, two months ago, they had a vegetable complexion, dull eyes, and people were wilting, and now two months later, they are all dark-faced, sharp-eyed, and more energetic.
In Xu Shijiu's words, this fucking person has the appearance of a soldier.
"Brethren, the recruit training is over, and from now on you will be a real soldier." Xu Shijiu's cold gaze swept over the faces of the officers and soldiers in the front row like a knife, and he said loudly, "As a soldier, your duty is to defend this country, this nation, and the fathers and villagers of all China from being bullied by others. β
"When you face the enemy's bayonets, you must understand that behind you are the compatriots you are protecting, you have no way to retreat, you have no choice but to fight to the death" Xu Jiu's voice was as sonorous as gold and iron, and then said, "Of course, I will not let you fight the enemy empty-handed, today, start the gun."
The faces of the five hundred recruits suddenly showed excitement, and after two months of hard training, they had not touched a gun.
"But before I fire, there are some things I have to say." Xu Jiu said loudly, "The gun is not only a weapon to kill the enemy, it is also your brother in life and death, it is your life, the gun is there, the gun is lost, the person is dead, you must keep in mind, under any circumstances, you can't throw away the gun in your hand"
"My gun is my life, if the gun is there, the person is there, and if the gun is lost, the person will die"
"My gun is my life, if the gun is there, the person is there, and if the gun is lost, the person will die"
"My gun is my life, if the gun is there, the person is there, and if the gun is lost, the person will die"
First, a few officers and students shouted loudly, and then five hundred recruits also shouted, and the momentum was overwhelming.
Yu Jishi came over accompanied by Feng Shengfa, He Lingxiao, Yang Shaoren and others, and happened to see this scene, looking at the neat infantry queue of the 19th Brigade, with high spirits, and then listening to the deafening roar, Yu Jishi couldn't help but feel a little agitated, and the only regret should be the military uniform.
To this day, the recruits of the 74th Army are still wearing all kinds of rags.
Xu Nineteen had already seen this, and hurriedly ran over, stood up and saluted, and then reported loudly: "Report to the military seat, the 19th Independent Brigade is giving guns to recruits, please give instructions." β
Yu Jishi returned the salute and said indifferently: "Go on." β
"Yes." Xu Shijiu took the order and ran away again.
Yu Jishi turned his head and asked Feng Shengfa: "When will the military uniform arrive?" β
Feng Shengfa looked at Yang Shaoren, and Yang Shaoren hurriedly replied: "The military uniforms ordered from Shanghai have been transported to the Hankou wharf by the British foreign ship, and all regiments and battalions will soon be able to put on the new military uniforms. β
"Hmm." Yu Jishi nodded and said, "Before this big military parade and exercise, all departments must change into new military uniforms, not only new recruits, but also veterans, and all officers and soldiers must appear in Huangpi with a new look and a high-spirited military posture to be reviewed by the supreme leader. β
Feng Shengfa and the others hurriedly stood up.
Yu Jishi pulled the white gloves on his hands, and suddenly asked again: "Hey, where are the veterans of the 19th Brigade?" β
Feng Shengfa replied: "Military seat, the veterans of the 19th Brigade are trained separately from the recruits, the recruits are trained in the training camp, but the veterans are trained in Baishuitan, which is more than ten miles away from here. β
Yu Jishi asked, "Do you want to train separately?" β
Feng Shengfa said busily: "What recruits need most is basic subject training, while what veterans need most is training in mental will and physical limits, so it is better to train separately." After a pause, Feng Shengfa said again, "Moreover, the instructor of the veteran is Mr. Jiang Baili's protΓ©gΓ©, and he uses a special training method, although it is cruel, the effect is very good. β
"Mr. Jiang Baili's proud protΓ©gΓ©, special training? It's kind of interesting. Yu Jishi said, "Let's go, take a look." The next group of people got into the car separately and went straight to Baishuitan, which was more than ten miles away.
Whitewater Beach, a training ground for veterans.
Gao Shenxing carried an old rifle in his hand and yelled at more than 500 veterans: "Do you remember the oath you made when you first received the gun? β
"My gun is my life"
"The gun is in the right place"
"A missing gun kills a person"
Five hundred veterans responded loudly.
Although many veterans hated Gao Shenxing to death, after two months of hellish cruel training, no one dared to openly provoke Gao Shenxing.
"My gun is my life." Gao Shenxing's provocative gaze swept over the faces of the veterans in the front row one by one, and said coldly, "Everyone can say this, but do you really understand the meaning of this sentence?" How much do you know about the guns in your hands? Can you really do it when the gun is in the person and the gun is lost? β
The five hundred veterans were dumbfounded when they heard this, and they really didn't know this.
"I don't know, do you? You stupid pigs, you have never really understood your own guns" Gao Shenxing said coldly, "Then, let me tell you, the gun is not a cold dead thing, it is spiritual, if you cherish it, it will cherish you, if you ignore it, it will kill you."
"Guns still have spirituality?" One veteran muttered softly, "Isn't that?" β
Gao Shenxing's cold eyes immediately turned to the veteran, and shouted: "Wang Xiaomu, out of the ranks"
The veteran who was whispering just now suddenly felt numb, but he still obediently stepped forward and stood in front of the queue.
Gao Shenxing first put the old rifle in his hand on the ground, and then strode to Wang Xiaomu, and snatched the formal rifle in Wang Xiaomu's hand, and with a shake of his hands, a large number of firearm parts and the bare body of the gun fell on the grass with a clatter, and the veterans looked at each other, what did this two hundred and five want?
"Private King Xiaomu." Gao Shenxing glared at Wang Xiaomu coldly, and said in a deep voice, "Give you half a minute, blindfolded, and reassemble your rifle, if it is not assembled well, you should know the consequences." As soon as the words fell, a gendarme had already stepped forward and covered Wang Xiaomu's eyes with a strip of black cloth.
Gao Shenxing took out a pocket watch from his pocket again, and said fiercely: "The timer begins"
Wang Xiaomu was stunned for a few seconds, and when he reacted, he hurriedly lay on the ground and groped for the scattered firearm parts to assemble them, but he rarely disassembled the firearms and was not familiar with the structure of the firearms.
"When the time comes," Gao Shenxing snorted, and Wang Xiaomu froze there with a broken face.
"Private Wang Xiaomu, fully armed for 20 kilometers off-road" Gao Shenxing gave an order, and a gendarme had already stepped forward with a heavy marching backpack and pressed it on Wang Xiaomu's back, and helped him assemble a rifle and put it around his neck, Wang Xiaomu drooped his head, and was about to accept the punishment, Zhang Youquan, who couldn't bear it, finally stood up.
"Slow" Zhang Youquan stepped forward and said loudly, "We are not convinced"
"Zhang Youquan, do you want to rebel?" Gao Shenxing strode over, and his big mouth almost bit Zhang Youquan's face, and the spittle Xingzi sprayed all over Zhang Youquan's face
Thinking of Gao Shenxing's cruel methods in the past two months, the horizontal flesh on Zhang Youquan's face trembled, and it was inevitable that he had some heart palpitations, but he soon calmed down and said with his head held high: "We are not convinced, it may be possible to assemble a firearm in half a minute, but it is absolutely impossible to be blindfolded, this is absolutely impossible." β
"Impossible?" Gao Shen said, "You say it's impossible? β
"No way." Zhang Youquan said loudly, "Unless it's an immortal." β
Gao Shenxing stared at Zhang Youquan's eyes deadly, handed the pocket watch in his hand to the gendarmes beside him, and snatched his Hanyang-made rod from Zhang Youquan's hand, and then put his hands together, the Hanyang-made rod turned into a pile of parts and scattered on the grass, Zuihou Gao Shenxing took the black cloth from the gendarme's hand and blindfolded himself.
Zhang Youquan's heart suddenly hung in his throat, two hundred and five, is this what you want?
The veteran in the front row also widened his eyes for a moment, this two hundred and five should not really be able to do it, right?
The gendarme didn't think so much, and after taking the pocket watch and clearing it, he shouted: "The timer begins"
In the next moment, Gao Shenxing quickly squatted down, first grabbed the wooden gun body made by Hanyang from the grass, and then touched the parts one by one and assembled them, his movements looked unfast, but it only took more than ten seconds to assemble most of the parts, and when Gao Shenxing Zuihou loaded the bolt and closed the bolt, it took a few seconds for the gendarme to shout: "The time is up." β
The whole training ground was silent, and all the veterans were stupid, how could this be?
Zhang Youquan's jaw was about to fall, but he also admired it a little, although Gao Shenxing's two hundred and five were not close to people, he was also a real person, at least no one could play with guns
"How's that, convincing or not?" Gao Shenxing carried the reassembly of haode Hanyang, and said coldly.
Zhang Youquan swallowed his saliva, speechless, Gao Shenxing snorted, and said: "All of them, fully armed cross-country for twenty kilometers, you are not allowed to eat lunch if you don't finish running"
