When Huang Xiong came to the headquarters office, there were three other people besides Li Yunxing. One of them he recognized was "Chang Wei", an officer in the camp, and there was also a "Chang Ma" who often appeared at the training ground. He seemed to be a Big shot. 【Read full text】
The person he didn't recognize was Ran Yao. Li Yunxing immediately called the security team in the headquarters office. This Huang Xiong's knowledge is obviously not what ordinary people can have. He is probably an officer of the Ming Army. He had to make sure he was a spy.
Finally, there was Dongmen Chuiyu who came to watch the fun. He didn't have much to do now, and the order in Dongmen City was also on track. He often went to Ma Qianzhu's place to fool around, and he also drafted a lot of staff charters and the like. What a fictitious person.
"Sit down." Ran Yao said seemingly casually.
"Thank you, Chief." "Thank you, Chief, for the seat!" Huang Xiong stood at attention again - he seemed to be particularly good at this.
Everyone saw that his gestures were indeed different from those of ordinary recruits.
"Have you ever been in the army?" Ran Yao asked bluntly.
"Yes! I was once the boss of Jizhou Town." He looked calm.
He was also an officer of the Ming Army. This was a bit beyond Li Yunxing's expectation. During this recruitment, many local fugitive military households came. However, the generals in Jizhou Town are completely different from the military households in Hainan. The former are real soldiers, while the latter are just serfs of military landlords. The difference is really huge.
"Since you are an officer of the imperial court, why did you come all the way to Qiongzhou?"
Huang Xiong hesitated for a moment: "The villain accidentally killed Shangfeng because of a quarrel with him."
Still a murderer. No wonder he had to abscond so far.
"Why was there a conflict?"
"It's not just for some money and food." Huang Xiong smiled bitterly, "The imperial court has always owed wages, and the soldiers were starving to death because of the debt. We didn't get a share of the money and food allocated by the higher authorities. I went to ask for it, and I got up. conflict."
The reason is quite straightforward. But Ran Yao knew that if it was a secret agent, the reasons for coming here would naturally be fabricated. They were in Hainan and were unable to go to Jizhou to investigate the truth of the matter.
"Why did you come to us as soldiers?"
Huang Xiong said: "The elders are from overseas and have nothing to do with the Ming Dynasty government, so they naturally want to come here."
There is no loophole in this statement. Several people looked at each other, and Ma Qianzhu suddenly asked:
"What do you think of our team training?"
"My lords and elders have never heard of the methods of military training, and I dare not comment on their superiority." Huang Xiong said respectfully, "However, within ten months, the ignorant people in the countryside have been trained to know how to advance and retreat, and understand how to advance and retreat." The formation is already extremely advanced. It is more than enough to deal with rural bandits."
Ma Qianzhu nodded, asked some random questions, and then asked him to go.
"Do you want to keep him?" Ran Yao asked in a low voice.
If you want to be on the safe side, not only can this person not be used, it is best to just click away - he has received a full set of military training for time travellers. If he is really a spy, he will leak a lot of details to the government after escaping.
Wei Aiwen said: "I suggest keeping it. There will be more and more people like this in the future, and everything has a beginning. I don't believe this, and I don't believe that. Who else can we use?"
"What if it's a spy?" Li Yunxing hesitated.
"If he were a spy, he wouldn't reveal his identity so easily." Ran Yao said, "I personally think he is telling the truth."
"What you said is not materialistic." Dongmen Chuiyu criticized.
"What is materialism? We must be more vigilant. We have so many workers and people now. Can you say that all of them are reliable?"
"Xiao Wei is right, we can't always stay in our own small circle." Ma Qianzhu made up his mind and said to Ran Yao: "Mark 'controlled use' on his file and find two soldiers to monitor him. he."
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."
"Hey, hey," Wei Aiwen called out, "You are placing spies in the training camp, why don't I know about it?"
"This is managed vertically by the Executive Committee. Just read our briefings." Ran Yao knocked on the table. There was also a document on this week's soldier movements on it. "Xiao Wei, your sense of confidentiality is It’s not good, this thing is classified, and you just leave it on the table like this?”
"Soldiers can't come in here. Even standing guard is our responsibility and we can't leave it behind. Besides, the house has door locks." Wei Aiwen said carelessly, "Chief Ma, how about going to see our shooting training?"
"Okay, let's go take a look."
So far, the new army has conducted a total of 100 shootings, including 400 live ammunition and 600 no projectile shootings. This number has exceeded the number of shootings by recruits of the British Army, which paid the most attention to shooting in the 19th century - the time traveler said to himself The founder of the family can be said to have spared no expense.
When the group walked to the second company, they found that the soldiers of the second company were gathering together. A long, dark and sturdy soldier was holding a rifle, aiming at a rock in the distance. A large number of people gathered around him.
There was a "pong" sound. The stone was blown away. It seems they practiced well. Wei Aiwen recognized this soldier as Yang Zeng, Li Yunxing's top shooter.
Just when Wei Aiwen was about to go over and say something to Yang, Dongmen Chuiyu walked over in front of him.
He said to the soldier who was shooting: "You did a good job."
The soldier chuckled.
"Now, please call me again." Dongmen Chuiyu said calmly.
The soldier fired another shot. Right on target.
Dongmen nodded and stood beside the soldier. Then he took out a Gerinde pistol from his waist, loaded it with blank ammunition, and said, "Do it again."
The soldier began to clear the barrel of his gun, and it was here that a shot was fired into the air from the east gate. The soldier shook his hand and some gunpowder was scattered outside.
The only staff officer in this staff department began to urge: "Hurry."
The gunpowder finally got in. During the cleanup, two more shots were fired at the east gate.
The soldier began to reload.
"Hurry. Hurry up."
The gun in Dongmen's hand went off again. The soldier's bullet fell to the ground.
"What are you doing? Reload. Reload quickly!" Dongmen shouted in the soldier's ear.
The soldier hurriedly took out another bullet from the ammunition bag.
The gun went off again. Followed closely by his urging: "Quick! Move faster!"
The soldier tremblingly loaded the bullet into the barrel.
Another shot. Everyone can see the soldiers' hands shaking as they install the flash cap.
"Shoot, shoot quickly!" he continued.
The soldier finally completed the loading process.
"Quick. Aim. Shoot!" he ordered amidst the sound of the pistol.
The soldier's gun fired.
The stone in front did not respond. The bullet missed.
Dongmen Chuiyu put away his pistol and said, "Keep practicing."
Everyone shook their heads. The gun was very accurate, but he was not a soldier.
After leaving the crowd, Wei Aiwen caught up with him and said angrily:
"Dongmen Chuiyu, don't you think you're going too far?"
"What's too much?"
"Do you know how much effort Yang Zeng has put into practicing shooting since he joined the Chasseur Platoon? He is now the most accurate soldier in the entire battalion."
"That has nothing to do with me. Captain Wei, please remember. What we need are soldiers, not shooting athletes." He glanced at Li Yunxing and said, "Wars are not fought in a quiet shooting gallery."
He walked away before Wei Aiwen could reply.
Wei Aiwen and Li Yunxing began to hate this guy who wore glasses even though he was not nearsighted.
What makes Wei Aiwen even more distressed is that half of his spectacular artillery, including the cannons and gunners, was given to the navy! What was left for them was only nine 12-pound mountain grenades and a few 6-pound light cannons. The 8-pound cannons and 7omm breech-loading guns were all assigned to the navy. This result also made Zhang Bolin, the self-proclaimed artillery director, angry - he had spent a lot of effort on the artillery. And Li Haiping used despicable material temptations such as being able to freely eat fish in the Navy to lure away the best gunners, which made him even more angry.
"Commander Ma, don't do this!" Zhang Bolin said angrily, "Our Army is the main force in the counter-encirclement and suppression campaign. How can we fight this battle if you gave all your artillery to the navy?"
"Yes, yes, there are clearly four infantry companies in the training camp. Why did the Navy dedicate one company to serve as a 'naval team'? We also agree with the Executive Committee's statement about the navy. The army is a local army and a navy. But this is so bullying!”
Ma Qianzhu stood up and said, "You know you need a cannon! The 8-pound cannon is for you. Do you have a horse?"
"There is——" in Nanhai Farm
"You are still the artillery director. Do you know how many horses an 8-pounder cannon requires?"
Zhang Bolin was mute. He really didn't know how many horses it took to pull his beloved weapon.
"At least 6! They must be medium-sized horses." Ma Qianzhu knocked on the table, "How many horses are there in Wu Nanhai's farm?"
"You can also use a donkey -" Zhang Bolin continued his weak resistance.
"A donkey can only pull 12 pounds of mountain grenades. A mountain howitzer, a cannon, and an ammunition truck will cost you 30 donkeys alone. Wu Nanhai has lost all his money and there is not enough for you! If you don't live in the family, you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are!"
Zhang Bolin completely turned off the fire, and Wei Aiwen was still obsessed with the issue of the Marine Company.
"The marine company is the future navy sailors, and the training camp was originally just for substitute training. Now that one month is over, the navy wants them to go on board for training."
The two of them were beaten by Ma Qianzhu and came out in despair.
"The navy is really bullying!" Wei Aiwen was still angry.
"They took advantage of the Fengcheng Hotel to bribe the senior officials of the executive committee. What a ****!"
"Let's talk to Battalion Commander Xi."
"Fat Xi?" Zhang Bolin simply shouted disrespectfully, "He and Ma Qianxu wear the same pair of pants."
"Where are the other people? Bai Yu, Ying Yu them-"
"I find it unreliable. Those old soldiers have been 'listening to the Party's words' all their lives, but now they have become 'listening to the Executive Committee'."
"Our Army will be in ruins if this continues." Wei Aiwen was heartbroken about the future of the Army.
"Hmph, I think it's time to organize a group to protect the rights and interests of our army - this is also for the sake of all time-travelers! Letting them continue to mess around is not good for the cause of time-travel - the navy is of no use now, and counter-encirclement and suppression is not based on We? The Executive Committee is putting the cart before the horse. I heard that many officers in the battalion are dissatisfied with the resolution of the Executive Committee——"
"Keep your voice down and tell me what to do specifically?"
