Wandering the Heavens

Chapter 329: Sword 32

"There are more than a dozen rooms. Old Zhao and I are drooling just looking at this one!" Li Yunlong sighed.

"Commander, Political Commissar, I can only show you around the operations room. Other places are confidential unless the brigade commander himself comes. Next, I will show you other places." Yu Xian explained.

The war room includes several institutions, including the command center, dispatch center, telecommunications room, power generation room, and archive room. The command center and dispatch center are semi-public in nature. The telecommunications room, as the name suggests, is an institution for monitoring, intercepting and deciphering enemy radio communications. The power generation room is a place to ensure the normal operation of the war room. The archive room is actually an intelligence analysis center.

It is impossible for Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang to visit the above three places. In fact, Yu Xian is the only one who has full authority in the entire teaching brigade. This is one of the reasons why he is so exhausted every day.

"How about going to the shooting range? I heard that from the initial transfer of personnel to the current downsizing, most of the officers and soldiers assigned to the teaching brigade are sharpshooters!" Li Yunlong's fox tail was finally revealed.

Yu Xian didn't hesitate and took them out of the command center and headed for the shooting range. The shooting range was quite far from the command center, and it took them almost half an hour to get there.

There are also soldiers doing shooting training here, but they don't shoot or hit. They stand opposite each other, with their feet in a bow stance and their rifles aimed, with a shell on the muzzle.

Of course, in addition to standing training, there are also kneeling and lying training. The lying training is especially exaggerated. The soldiers lie on the ground with both hands keeping the shooting action, and then a soldier takes a few chicken feathers to tickle his exposed skin.

"This...what is this for?" Li Yunlong was puzzled.

"Captain Li, this is sniper training, which is to maintain shooting state under various extreme conditions. They are all sharpshooters among sharpshooters. If they have a qualified sniper rifle, they can easily hit targets within 1000 meters. Of course, it is still because of the weapons. We do not have optical talents and technology, so currently sniping targets within 600 meters are very difficult." Yu Xian felt helpless about the huge gap between ideals and reality.

"I've read some reports about snipers on the battlefield. They undermined Hans Tiger's command by sniping his officers on the battlefield. But I didn't expect that you have already started trying and exploring systematic training." Zhao Gang was convinced by Yu Xian's foresight.

"I'm just repeating what others have said. As I said before, whatever we do now is preparation for the future." Yu Xian hinted that this was not preparation for the current war.

Zhao Gang looked at Yu Xian meaningfully, then at Li Yunlong. Both were regimental-level military commanders, one always wanted to fight, the other thought about politics. Yu Xian was more suitable for the path of political work!

"Captain Yu, although the equipment of this teaching brigade is much more standardized than that of the independent regiment, there is not much difference!" Li Yunlong shook his head as he looked at the Type 38 rifles and Hanyang rifles all over the field.

"Okay! I'll let Captain Li and Political Commissar Zhao open their eyes. Let's go and take a look!" Yu Xian said with a smile.

A few minutes later, Li Yunlong was dumbfounded when he saw the new firearms and rocket launchers in front of him. He didn't expect that the big deal Zhang Wanhe was talking about was actually this.

Yu Xian was very considerate. In addition to the machine gun and the rocket launcher, he gave Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang five bullets each for the remaining three types of guns so that they could try their hands. In order to give them face, Yu Xian also specially invited the soldiers who were training at the shooting range to watch.

After finishing the shooting, they continued their training. Yu Xian took them to take a look at the bunker where the rocket launcher was tested before.

The meaning is obvious. If the headquarters is not determined to launch a war to break the current deadlock, the rocket launcher is an effective means to attack the artillery tower. Of course, in view of the current reality that the base is heavily blocked and friendly forces are eyeing it covetously, if you want to equip this thing, you must have enough materials. As for how to get the materials, it depends on what each combat unit can get.

Although the first batch of standard equipment hastily produced by Shuiyao No. 1 Institute was given to the teaching brigade, this kind of thing can be heard on the surface, and each unit has a share, but it is true that the teaching brigade took the lion's share.

Li Yunlong's curiosity was satisfied. He left the shooting range, looking back every few steps, and went to the cafeteria to eat. During the meal, no one talked about work, but chatted about all kinds of things until it was almost dark.

Before leaving, Yu Xian asked Zhao Gang to do one thing, which was to check whether there were any industrial and technical talents among them, especially those in optics, when they fought the Japanese later. If there were any, except for the diehard elements who were guilty of heinous crimes, they should be shot and the rest should be kept.

I want this coal-producing land in northern Shanxi, and no one can take it away from me!

"Old Zhao, what was Yu Xian whispering to you just now?" Li Yunlong looked at the sunset in the sky without drinking a drop of wine but felt drunk.

"He said that the teaching brigade has a special combat mission and basically has no Japanese prisoners. After our independent regiment captures the Japanese, we will look for technical talents who have learned physics and chemistry, especially optical talents." Zhao Gang told this very straightforwardly.

Li Yunlong was unhappy when he heard this. Yu Xian told Zhao Gang this because he was afraid that he would ask for too much in exchange.

"Old Zhao, we can't let Yu Xian get away with it. If he wants it, he has to exchange it for something." Li Yunlong warned.

"Old Li! You are overthinking this. Technical talents in this area must be sent to the Anti-War Alliance for education before being assigned. Not to mention us, even the brigade commander cannot make the decision." Zhao Gang said with a smile.

"Yeah, that guy does things flawlessly. I guess the brigade commander has already reported his opinions to the division or even the headquarters. Old Zhao, he recited a poem while looking at the sun that day. Since you are a college student, why don't you recite one too?" Li Yunlong was tactful and stopped talking about the previous topic.

"Okay! Let me think about it!" Zhao Gang looked at the dusk painted by the setting sun: "I feel uncomfortable in the evening, so I drive to the ancient plain. The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it is almost dusk."

"What do you mean?" Li Yunlong asked, adjusting the brim of his hat.

"This is a poem written by Li Shangyin, a poet from the Tang Dynasty. The general meaning is that he was worried in the evening so he went out to relax and happened to see the scenery of the setting sun shining on the earth." Zhao Gang did not go into details.

"You are the educated people. I, Old Li, can only say that it's so damn beautiful! Hahaha," Li Yunlong laughed.

A few months after Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang came to inspect and study, the first batch of standard equipment was delivered to the teaching brigade. After completing the equipment replacement, they started adaptive training without stopping.

The adaptive training content is also very hardcore, directly carried out in the form of actual combat, and cooperated with various frontal troops to complete the attack and sabotage activities behind the enemy. Among them, the most active in applying for combat missions was Li Yunlong's independent regiment, which did not even rest during the Chinese New Year and insisted on doing a job.

In this situation where small battles continued but no major battles occurred, it was 1945. Yu Xian had not been on the front line for more than a year. He was in charge of various tasks in the command center and dispatching the operations of various squadrons and teams on the front line.

And now Yu Xian is waiting for the arrival of May. By then, the top leaders of the organization will launch a final counterattack after victory in the European battlefield. This will be his last time to kill the Japanese, so he must go to the front line.

I really want to lead the independent regiment to attack Taiyuan!
