Looking at the smoke rising from the explosion of the shell in the distance, Zhou Wen looked at Xu Dacheng with a strange expression, feeling inexplicably shocked: "There is really a kind of person in this world called genius, and there is really a kind of ability called talent."
One shot hit the target. Yes, you read that right, right in the middle.
The first day of contact with artillery, the first artillery operation, the first artillery shell.
Xu Dacheng was a little frightened by Zhou Wen's eyes: "What's wrong? Ah Wen, I got hit." He didn't know how evil his performance was, and thought it was a normal phenomenon.
"Look behind you." Zhou Wen pointed behind him.
Xu Dacheng turned around and saw Wang Huzi and the others with their jaws dropped to the ground, staring at him with cross-eyed eyes. Those teenagers were relatively calm. The ignorant are fearless.
The whole place was silent.
"Try one more shot." Zhou Wen said.
Don't let the blind cat touch the dead mouse, right? Pointing to a large stone by the river about five hundred meters away, he said, "Did you see that stone by the river? Just hit it there."
It was the same operation again, the same explosion again. After the smoke passed, the big rock disappeared.
Okay, here comes another one flying in the sky.
"Okay!" Wang Huzi and others came to their senses and cheered.
"Okay!" The teenagers cheered uniformly, beginning to change from ignorance to knowledge.
Zhou Wen lost his composure, rushed over and picked up Xu Dacheng, shouting loudly: "God of Guns! God of Guns!"
Then everyone shouted to Xu Dacheng: "God of Artillery! God of Artillery!" "Brother Dacheng! Brother Dacheng!"
Xu Dacheng watched everyone, including Zhou Wen, look at him with admiration and enthusiasm, and the teenagers shouted loudly and ran towards him.
His thoughts immediately became confused: "Is this showing his face? Being admired? I'm not ready yet. This is too sudden. I'm so embarrassed. It feels a bit weird."
When everyone picked it up, they shouted and threw it into the sky, caught it, and threw it again. The body floated, and so did the heart. Thinking finally returned to normal. In an instant, ecstasy, excitement, screams, intense satisfaction, etc., erupted from the chest, from the heart, and from every pore in the body from head to toe.
"Ahahaha! Brother has become a god too! I'm so satisfied! It's so special! Ahahaha!"
The ghost's cry went straight into the sky, so frightened that everyone's hands shook and they almost didn't catch it.
Zhou Wen pulled Xu Dacheng, who was still nostrils flaring with excitement, and walked to the front of the team and said loudly: "I announce two things. One is that Xu Dacheng will be the leader of the artillery team of the guard company starting today. There are six artillery team members. , selected by him personally.
Second, three days later there will be a company-wide competition in three subjects: shooting, fighting, and tactical movements. After the competition, they will be reorganized, and those who perform best in the competition will serve as team leaders and deputy team leaders in the future. Do you understand? "
"Understood!" the whole company replied in unison.
"Next..." Zhou Wen said and paused. Next to him, Wang Huzi stood out with his chest and belly ready to step forward to lecture.
"Disband!"
Wang Huzi choked on his breath and stretched his neck. What do you mean by this? Am I still not the leader? Is this still my soldier?
Zhou Wen walked up to Wang Huzi and explained: "Captain, you are in a hurry. Time is tight. Didn't I tell you yesterday that I could repair the gun? I have to race against time, otherwise you won't believe anything I say in the future, right?"
Wang Huzi opened his mouth and couldn't say anything. It turned out to be here. Yesterday I didn't say I didn't believe you, I just asked, and no one asked me? Can I still live this life?
Wang Huzi poked Yahuazi again.
Zhou Wen told Xu Dacheng a few words, and then asked Ergazi to take a few people to follow him to the warehouse.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Hong Xiu smiling and looking at him with his little hands behind his back. Zhou Wen said happily: "Hong Xiu, brother, I see you are here."
"Brother, you're here. I've been waiting for you for a long time. Come on, guess what I'm holding in my hand?" Hongxiu said with expectant eyes.
Zhou Wen has a big head. Guess what? A flower? A piece of candy? Each answer was rejected by Hongxiu, who smiled and shook his head.
At this time, Ergazi, who was following, stood to the side and saw what Hong Xiu was holding, and blurted out: "It's a notebook, little scholar, it's a small notebook."
Xiao Hongxiu's expression immediately changed, her big eyes were filled with tears in a blink of an eye, and she shouted to Ergazi: "You saw it, you cheated, you are a liar, you are a bad guy, woo woo woo!"
The game I originally planned to play with my big brother was ruined by this big bad guy. It's so sad.
Zhou Wen was furious and yelled at Ergazi: "You idiot, you know nothing. Get out of here and go to the warehouse to move things. Are you still standing there waiting for me to beat you up?"
Ergazi didn't expect that he would flatter Ma on the leg, so the brothers went to the warehouse in a nonchalant manner.
Zhou Wen quickly pulled Hongxiu, stretched out his hand to wipe her tears and said: "If Hongxiu doesn't cry, he has been scolded by me. He is a big bad guy. You can call him big bad brother from now on. If you don't cry, you won't be beautiful if you cry again." ." The little girl leaned on Zhou Wen's shoulder and gradually stopped crying.
Suddenly he raised his face and looked at Zhou Wen and said, "Brother, do you think I'm still pretty?" Zhou Wen almost squatted and sat on the ground. This kind of thinking changes, no matter how young she is, she is still a woman. When she hears that she is not beautiful, she immediately becomes vigilant. But this trick works.
"Beautiful, do you think our red sleeves can't be beautiful? We must be beautiful at all times." This guy is too unprincipled, you said, crying with tears on your face, and blowing out a snot bubble while talking. Can a little girl be called beautiful?
Hongxiu smiled broadly, took out the small book in her hand and handed it to Zhou Wen and said, "Brother, these are the words I wrote."
"Wow! Hongxiu is really good at being able to write so many words. When my brother was your age, he couldn't even recognize a few words."
"My eldest brother couldn't read when he was a child. What did he do?"
"Let's have fun and fight. My brother is very good at fighting. If anyone messes with Hongxiu in the future, my brother will go up and beat him up."
"Then - the big bad guy just now?" Well, the emotions went around and around again. So children love to hold grudges, especially little girls.
"Who is that? Ergazi, come out."
Ergazi and the others were carrying things while listening to the conversation outside. They were filled with admiration: "The little scholar is really capable of everything. His level of flattery is as high as that of Gao Laozhuang."
Suddenly I heard Zhou Wen's call, and Ergazi pulled his head out...
After the laughter was over, all the broken guns were taken out and put away. Zhou Wen took Hong Xiu and walked forward to observe carefully. Then I picked them up one by one and started to dismantle them.
Hongxiu didn't bother, just quietly and obediently watching Zhou Wen's operations.
The dismantled parts were taught to Ergazi and they were put together in categories. The most damaged firearms are those with old slides and those made in Hanyang. There are actually a few Ying Qiqi.
After careful inspection, Zhou Wen felt happy. After taking it apart and repairing it, he could probably assemble a usable one. Now that I have some idea, I need to find a blacksmith to make a few small tools.
When I thought of drawing, I took Hongxiu to her house and borrowed pen and paper from Mr. Zhou, and asked Ergazi to lead the way to the blacksmith in the village. Hongxiu also wanted to go along, and after obtaining Mr. Zhou's consent, they left together.
Dawangzhuang is a large village with a hundred households, so there are blacksmiths and carpenters. When we arrived at the blacksmith shop, the blacksmith was in his forties and his surname was Wang. After listening to Zhou Wen's explanation while drawing pictures, he said he could do it and agreed on a price to pick it up tomorrow.
After everyone came out, Zhou Wen looked at Hongxiu's thin body, his heart moved, and he took them back to the regiment headquarters. Hongxiu held Zhou Wen's hand tightly along the way, never leaving even a step.
Zhou Wen went to Wang Huzi and said, "Captain, I made a rough estimate today and found that about twenty pieces can be repaired. For the other missing parts, if blacksmith Wang is good at his craftsmanship, he can get another forty pieces out."
"What? Well, that's good!" Wang Huzi thought to himself: "What a risk! I almost made another mistake."
But I was really happy in my heart. This was the surprise that Lao Wu said. He said loudly: "Don't worry, go get it. If you need anything, just ask. Don't go back today. Let's have a few sips. Haha."
"Thank you, captain. Forget about drinking. The warehouse is still a mess. I will accompany the captain another day. I just want to ask for instructions."
Zhou Wen pulled Hongxiu and said, "This Hongxiu is the child of Mr. Zhou's family. I like it very much and want to have a sister. I want to ask the group leader for permission to send half a catty of meat to their family every three days. Of course, if the group leader is in trouble, I will You can also pay.”
"No embarrassment, no embarrassment. Isn't this a trivial matter?"
Zhou Wen led Hongxiu to Old Uncle Wu, received a large piece of pork and returned to the warehouse.
When he arrived at the door of Hong Xiu's house and explained his purpose of coming, Mr. Zhou rubbed his hands in embarrassment and said, "How embarrassing is that? No, thank you ***."
"Mr. Zhou, my name is Zhou Wen. As you have seen in the past few days, Hongxiu and I are very close to each other, and we just want to recognize this girl. We don't need to be pretentious, just recognize her in our hearts.
Hongxiu's body is probably in need of nutrition. Don't be polite, it's all for Hongxiu, no matter what else you do. "
These words were spoken both softly and hardly, and could not be rejected. There is a saying: When a scholar encounters a soldier, he cannot explain why.
Mr. Zhou's eyes turned red: "Hey! It's all because of my incompetence as a father. This child has suffered so much. Come in and sit down, come in and sit down." As he spoke, he made way for the room, then turned around and shouted: "Xiuqin, Xiuqin, Xiuqin Qin."
Zhou Wen entered the house and saw a beautiful young woman in her thirties walking out of the back room. Her face was as radiant as snow, her eyes were like water, and her large peasant woman's clothes could not hide her plump body. She smiled slightly and nodded to Zhou Wen: "Xiu'er has caused trouble for you."
"She's really beautiful. No wonder she was attracted by that Shi Santan." Zhou Wen said in his heart, but he said a few polite words.
Turning to look at Mr. Zhou, he said: "Mr. Zhou, Sister-in-law Xiuqin. Now I can still speak in this group. No matter what difficulties you have in the future, just speak up. Since I have accepted Hongxiu as my sister, I will help in any way I can." .”
This is a bit confusing, recognizing my sister and calling my mother my sister-in-law. Forget it, let's each do our own thing. Auntie can't talk about this. Zhou Wen mentally helped himself find the steps.
Zhou Wen continued: "But, if it is convenient, I would also like to know your specific situation. Mr. Zhou is a well-educated man, and his sister-in-law also comes from an extraordinary background. How come you work as an accountant in the supplementary group?"
