Coming back from my grandmother's house, the journey was quite smooth. picked up an officer of the Northeast Army from Grandma Grandma, and now there is hope for joining the army, and it is a double win, joining the Northeast Army, which can not only avenge Qin Yan's hatred, but also solve the problem of food shortage at home; Zhang Guazi walks with the wind, and the evening sun is warm, as if it only belongs to Zhang Guazi.

When he arrived at the hospital, Zhang Guazi lifted his spirits, dusted off his body, and excitedly knocked on the door bolt "Tom Tom", the door was knocked tremblingly, and the sound broke the eardrum "Yanyan!" Yeon-yeon! Open the door, there's good news for you! ”

Qin Yan in the house heard the call of melon seeds and hurriedly ran out, her husband ran out to get food without eating at noon, the village is not rich, where can he get food? As it got late, Qin Yan's heart became more and more nervous, for fear that something would go wrong with the melon seeds, and the call at the door at this moment was undoubtedly a powerful reassurance.

"Yeon, I can join the army! At that time, not only will our family's rice and noodles be settled, but I will also be able to help you avenge your revenge! Zhang Guazi grabbed Qin Yan with both hands, and as soon as the words fell, he hugged her tightly.

Qin Yan pushed away the melon seeds: "You are not allowed to go!" “

"Why? It's a win-win! If you can take revenge again, and you can get money and food, why don't you go? “

"I said no, I just didn't! Our family is not short of that bit of food, and we can cope with it if we save a little. “

"Impossible! Am I watching you eat lazy vegetables and vegetable porridge made by vegetable gangs? You have given too much for this family and suffered too much; In the past, I didn't have the ability to let you live a happy life, but now, the opportunity has come, how can I not seize it! “

Qin Yan waved her hand and slapped Zhang Guazi; The melon seeds were shocked, and it was some time to share the same bed, why did Qin Yan beat himself, and what he was going to do was not wrong, although he loved, but he couldn't stop the anger and doubts in his heart, standing in front of the door, watching Qin Yan cry and run back to the house.

After all, a husband and wife are 100 days in a day, not to mention Zhang Guazi's manly husband, how can he be angry because of a slap from his wife; He calmed down and went to the back room to visit his mother.

"Mother, the child is going to be a soldier, and the child has a future! I'll take revenge on you and kill those little devils without a single piece of armor. ”

Zhang's mother, who was lying in bed, her sick body that had not moved for a month was trembling constantly, and her head was raised vigorously to sit up.

"Mother, don't worry about him, he's this stubborn temper, you don't know; I also persuaded him, but he didn't listen, so let him go, sooner or later he will regret it. Qin Yan comforted Mother Zhang, still with anger in her words.

It didn't take long for Zhang Guazi to become a soldier smoothly along the line given by her grandmother, and Qin Yan still dutifully took care of the Zhang family; And the farming in the field is considered to be deserted.

Zhang Guazi didn't understand a lot of things when he first entered the barracks, and the rules were much worse, but because he worked in the fields all year round, his physical fitness was still very good.

In and out of the Northeast Army, the first thing is to learn the written language, so as to facilitate communication between the front line and the rear during the war; Of course, when a soldier has a gun to take, the enemy has to kill, and good marksmanship and the use of all types of guns are necessary.

The officers on the line of Grandma Sun are directly in charge of Zhang Guazi's unit, because of this relationship, Zhang Guazi has been given preferential treatment, Chinese characters, linguistics will not be opened in private, marksmanship can not keep up with the recruits of the same class, and is pulled out for separate training.

Zhang Guazi's oath was kept in mind, he had never touched the gun, he didn't know how to aim and press the gun at all, every time he hit the target, he aimed the gun a little down in advance, and then riveted enough to stabilize the gun body, and all his energy was put on stabilizing the gun, so that he didn't aim at all, except for the first shot, all of them missed the target. Zhang Guazi knew that he was not talented, so he often went to the military academy to practice alone, but he could not master the skills when he practiced alone.

The officer saw that Zhang Guazi was really stupid, so he taught it himself; The left elbow is supported outward, the right hand is forward, and the gun is dragged against the groove formed under the collarbone and the right arm, and the shoulder can be slightly pushed forward, so as to stabilize the gun body with a tighter grip on the gun drag; The center of gravity should be as downward as possible, not shooting upright, as a horse step, through the transmission of force, the recoil exerted by the shoulder body is transmitted down to the waist, hips, and finally by the legs; Parallax, wind speed, distance and other factors should be taken into account when aiming, and the muzzle should be lowered a few degrees as much as possible when strafing, so as to match the recoil to hit the target more accurately. and taught Zhang Guazi to shoot a few times.

After half a month of usual practice and his own hard work in private, Zhang Guazi still can't master strafing, and his point shooting and directional sniping abilities are better; There was a lack of troops in the team, the officers couldn't wait that long, and their comrades-in-arms of the same class all graduated one after another, leaving only Zhang Guazi alone.

"Why don't you give up machine gun rifle strafing and try the sniper position, maybe you can get something." The officer pinched the half-washed cigarette, and the smoke slowly came out of his mouth.

"It's okay, I can still practice, I will definitely be able to do it!" Zhang Guazi is unwilling to admit defeat, he believes that he will definitely be able to do what others can do.

"Brainless! The battle is ready to be fought, and there is time waiting for you? Strafing is used to kill pawns, do you know what is the most important thing in a team? The officer threw the cigarette on the ground.

"Guns!" Zhang Guazi blurted out.

"You're really an elm pimple, I'll shoot him himself if I put a machine gun there?"

"No, it won't."

"That's not all, let me tell you, the most important thing in the team is to get enough people who are the first to respond to the enemy's movements and grasp the overall dynamics, but also to be able to unite the team and boost morale; And this person is where I am now! The officer glanced at Zhang Guazi, "However, now that it is a war, no one can guarantee that he will not die, so he must always prepare a replacement for himself." ”

"That must be an adjutant!" Zhang Guazi didn't think much about it.

"I said it all! You're stupid! The adjutant will not stay in our broken temple in the future, people have backgrounds, and they just come over to take a formality; And the person who succeeds me must and can only be you. The officer squinted and peeked at the melon seeds.

Guazi stared at the officer, obviously he was surprised, how the officer was relieved of a recruit who had just entered the army and couldn't even use a gun well.

"Surprised?" The officer patted Zhang Guazi on the shoulder, "I single-handedly run this team, I don't want it to degenerate into a tool for warlords in the future, it is only used to fight against the Japanese invaders, and you are my fellow countryman, I also know Grandma Sun, I can trust you." ”

"Me? The guns are not good and not suitable. "Zhang Guazi knew that the officers wanted to engage in dictatorship, and since Mr. Sun preached the Three People's Principles, although Yuan Shikai was restored, the people's aspirations were all democracy and freedom; Zhang Guazi was reluctant to go along with the officers.

"Don't worry, I will help you establish your prestige and win people's hearts."

"It's a dictatorship! You and I know how Yuan Shikai died, and now the people's will is wanting, which is tantamount to dancing on the tip of a knife. Melon Seed whispered.

"I know, but we are not a dictatorship, but to keep the soul of the army, fight against the Japanese invaders, and never fight among themselves." The officer said righteously and turned to leave, "I have other things to deal with, you can think about it yourself." “

However, a few days later, a stranger came to the team, saying that Zhang Guazi's fellow villagers came to deliver a message. It's been a month since Zhang Guazi was busy practicing marksmanship and language, and he couldn't write a letter to his family, and he never received a letter from home, which was the first one.

After receiving the letter, Zhang Guazi quit the so-called fellow and returned to the house.

"I have a full-term relationship with you, my wife is not virtuous, and my mother is critically ill and does not wake up for several days; I have asked Lang Zhong to see it, but it is not satisfactory, only two or three days of life; If you are free, return quickly, so as not to regret it for life. “

The letter was full of personal anger, although there was self-blame, but it was just an apology, and then "pass", "if you are empty", "quick return", and "regret for life" are all expressing Qin Yan's anger that Zhang Guazi insisted on going his own way, which caused Zhang's mother to be critically ill.

However, at this moment, the officer is dealing with important tasks, and then there is a military and political meeting to be held, which will inevitably be delayed for a day, if Zhang's mother can hold on for three days, if she can't, I'm afraid that Zhang Guazi won't even be able to see her mother for the last time before her death.
