As September enters the central region of Henan, it rains more and more. On this day, at the training ground of the security company on the Dawangzhuang Riverbank, the crisp sound of Czech-style light machine guns sang rhythmically.
In the heavy rain, a group of muddy teenagers struggled to crawl and squirm on the ground, braving machine gun bullets whizzing over their heads. They crawled through the rope net that was only two centimeters above their heads, then turned around and crawled back.
Only Zhou Wen was supervising, Uncle Ma was controlling the machine gun, and everyone else, including Gao Xiaoshan, was training.
Zhou Wen actually didn't pay attention to the training personnel. His mind was already intoxicated by the sound of Uncle Ma's machine gun. He squinted as if he was enjoying the beautiful piano music.
"Da! Da da! Da da da!" Yes, Zhou Wen thought that Uncle Ma was not shooting a machine gun, but playing the piano. He had sublimated machine gun shooting to the realm of art.
Zhou Wen has never seen anyone who can control the rhythm of machine gun shooting to such an arbitrary extent.
This is the feeling of a gun, the feeling of a machine gun. Talents always appear inadvertently. When I gave him a chance, he gave me a super gift package in return.
The sound of machine gunfire stopped, and Zhou Wen came to his senses. He took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, and said loudly: "Everyone gather."
Everyone, including Uncle Ma, stood in the queue carrying machine guns.
"Everyone stand at attention! Count!" Gao Xiaoshan ordered loudly. "1, 2, 3...43."
Gao Xiaoshan ran out of the queue, saluted Zhou Wen and reported: "Reporting to the scholar, the whole company has gathered to report the count. There should be 43 people, but there are actually 43 people."
Zhou Wen returned the greeting solemnly and said loudly: "Everyone, take a break."
Looking at the neat and tall team in front of him, the rain and mud covered everyone's face, but it could not cover their bright eyes, nor their firm will and determination. Zhou Wen knew that the time had come to take action.
The whole company has been training for more than two months. It should have been taken out long ago to gain practical experience, but in order to avoid the limelight of the robbery incident, the training was closed for another month.
The training intensity formulated by Zhou Wen is very high. Because the teenagers in the security company have been practicing martial arts and playing guns since they were young, they have a very good foundation. Coupled with Zhou Wen's massage effect, everyone's physical abilities have been greatly improved in all aspects. Stress resistance and
Excellent recovery ability.
The training effect is remarkable. The training progress in various subjects including tactical movements, proficiency in operating various existing firearms, combat formations, soil work, bomb shooting, grappling and fighting, etc. is very fast.
It can be said that the first phase of training has been successfully completed.
In the future, the second phase of training will be formulated through actual combat training and actual combat needs. It will include combat training in various terrains such as mountains, rivers, and cities, field survival, and subject training for various special arms.
Zhou Wen now also knows the effectiveness of Buddha's Light Massage in transforming the body.
Those who are under 20 years old and have practiced martial arts successfully have the best results. Like all the teenagers in the guard company, their strength has increased nearly twice. Their physical coordination, reaction speed, running speed, endurance and physical strength, and all aspects of their senses have been greatly improved.
Especially Gao Xiaoshan, Xu Dacheng, Sun Tiezhu and others who have a solid foundation in martial arts have better results than others.
Generally, the transformation effect of massage is basically gone after three days. Xu Dacheng initially requested massage every day, but after three days, there was basically no improvement effect. Only the treatment still had an effect.
What worries Zhou Wen is that he discovered that the Buddha's light is not infinite energy, and now the luster of the Buddha beads can only be restored to 80% of its original value. It is estimated that he will stop transforming about a hundred people, and some of it will be used for treatment.
For the older Uncle Ma, the effect was halved, but he was also very surprised. If you think about it, halving it also increased his strength by 50%, not to mention the increase in other body functions.
His ability to control machine guns is now at a higher level than before. Most of his lameness has been cured, and he can basically keep up with training now. His mood and demeanor are completely different from before. It is not an exaggeration to say that he has a second youth.
.
Wang Huzi and Old Uncle Wu also received Zhou Wen's massage, which basically increased the massage by 20%. But it also made them extremely happy. They were amazed again and again.
Zhou Wen explained to them that his massage only unblocked some blocked meridians in their bodies and healed some old injuries, allowing them to fully reflect the effects of their previous martial arts training, so there were various increases.
Everyone was doubtful, so they were too embarrassed to ask again. Zhou Wen repeatedly asked for confidentiality. He was not allowed to discuss it at ordinary times, let alone leak it in front of people outside the security company, otherwise he would be punished by military law.
Now Zhou Wen has a high prestige in the guard company, and all the brothers, including Gao Xiaoshan, have shown their utmost trust in him.
Wang Huzi wanted to promote him to the rank of officer, and Gao Xiaoshan gave up his position many times, but he flatly refused.
He just explained that it is not appropriate for him to stand out now, and it is best to maintain the status quo. So everyone calls him scholar. Scholar is the authority, and scholar is everyone's leader.
Now the guard company has been divided into several groups based on each person's expertise.
Xu Dacheng served as the leader of a six-person artillery team, equipped with one Hanyang-made gun, five shell guns and an 82mm mortar.
Five young men with the best equestrian skills were selected to form an investigation team. All the equipment was equipped with a Hanyang-made gun and a shell gun. Xu Dacheng also served as the team leader.
It's not that Zhou Wen is nepotistic, but that he is the best horseman in the entire company. In addition to his great skills, his training results are second only to Gao Xiaoshan, and he is a master of artillery, so everyone is convinced.
The top 18 most accurate rifle shooters form three long rifle groups. The group leaders are Ergazi, Li Hu, and Niu Bao. The group leaders use Yingqiqi, and the team members are equipped with relatively good guns made in Hanyang.
Uncle Ma led five people to form a machine gun team. They were equipped with one Czech light machine gun, three made in Hanyang, and Uncle Ma was also equipped with a shell gun.
The six people with the strongest fighting ability form an action team, with Sun Dazhu as the team leader. Each person has a flower trap and a shell gun.
Zhou Wen and Gao Xiaoshan each have an English Qiqi and a Big Eye Luzi.
Speaking of the big-eyed masturbation seized from Fatty Zhao, Wang Huzi was also jealous, but Zhou Wen gave up his interest with just one sentence, "It's all yours. I'll lend it to Brother Shanzi to play with for a few days and then return it to you." Bah!
It was Liu Bei who borrowed Jingzhou again.
Forget it, I don't care about you anymore. I won't lose my worth by fighting with you little brats.
As the saying goes: plans don't change fast.
Zhou Wen's attack plan was delayed again by an accident.
In the evening, Zeng Erniu came and said, "Mr. Zhou, please go to Xuchang to interview him as soon as possible. He has been transferred back to the headquarters. He is responsible for investigating the matter of Fatty Zhao being ambushed. He wants to discuss it with you."
Zhou Wen had a good impression of Zeng Erniu, so he agreed with a smile and asked Xu Dacheng to take him to eat and rest. Zhou Wen thought carefully for a while and felt that Zhou Jinbao would have no problem.
I decided to go to the city tomorrow and take Hongxiu with me. She complained about it for a long time last time, so this time I took Hongxiu for a walk in the city.
At 6 o'clock in the morning the next day, Zhou Wen set off on horseback with Hongxiu. On this trip, he only asked Gao Xiaoshan and Xu Dacheng to go with him. Plus Zeng Erniu, the five of them rode out of Dawangzhuang and galloped away.
Hongxiu was riding a horse for the first time. She was so excited that she screamed and chattered happily on the road. Everyone was very interested and they talked and laughed all the way to Xuchang.
After entering the city, Zhou Wen took out his pocket watch to see that it was not even 10 a.m., and said to Zeng Erniu: "Brother Erniu, tell Brother Zhou that we will meet at Piaoxiang Restaurant on South Street at 12 noon. I
Treat me, let’s have a few drinks. Now let’s go shopping with Hongxiu.”
After bidding farewell to Zeng Erniu, Zhou Wen took a few people for a walk slowly on the street. Last time, Zhou Wen walked all over the streets and alleys of Xuchang City in order to find the black market, so he naturally became the leader and tour guide.
This time I got a hundred yuan from Uncle Wu, and I would be embarrassed if I didn't spend it all.
The four of them ate various snacks on the way and helped Hongxiu buy a few sets of skirts and clothes.
Hongxiu has never been so happy and happy since she was sensible. She has long regarded Zhou Wen as her relative, and she is not shy. She is wearing new clothes, her belly is full of food, and the smile on her face never stops.
Then we came to a shoe store. Seeing that there were women's leather shoes for sale, I asked Hongxiu to choose and try on the feet. Xu Dacheng was there to help Hongxiu come up with bad ideas.
Zhou Wen was looking around in the store. He was suddenly attracted by a pair of high-waisted leather boots. He picked them up and took a look. They had suede cowhide uppers, thick cowhide soles, and cleats on the soles. They looked like Japanese Showa V military boots.
The early Japanese Showa Type 5 military shoes were well-made, waterproof and non-slip, and protected the feet very well. They were good for long distances and were strong and durable. They were famous as good military boots during World War II.
At the end of World War II, due to the decline in Japan's national power, it began to make shoddy products. "But next year will be the fifth year of the Showa era in Japan. This should be an early trial product. I didn't expect that it would be sold in Xuchang City." Zhou Wen thought.
"This young military man has a good eye. These are military shoes worn by Japanese soldiers. They are authentic Japanese products. We also got the goods from Tianjin through good connections. I heard that only a small number of Japanese soldiers have them, and all in Japan have them."
Not easy to buy.
If you're interested, just give it a try. It doesn't matter whether you buy it or not." The shopkeeper also knows how to do business, and he introduced it warmly when he came up.
Zhou Wen called Gao Xiaoshan and Xu Dacheng and asked them to try a pair. Both of them were full of praise. He bargained with the shopkeeper for a while, and finally the price came to 12 yuan a pair.
After asking about the supply situation, he planned to go back and measure the sizes of the brothers and buy them all. I will buy three pairs today. Zhou Wen knows that a good pair of shoes is as much as an extra life for a soldier. Although it is a little more expensive, it is very valuable.
worth.
Everyone was very happy after they came out, especially Hongxiu, who was wearing her newly bought red leather shoes and jumping up and down all the way, attracting the attention of passers-by.
