Chapter 14: Suicide Note! Granting a gun, a high-precision sniper?!
"The company commander means that the new recruits will first be familiarized with the fixed sentry posts by the veterans, and then assigned to patrol posts after they have adapted."
Kai Youmu continued to relay the meeting's content, "There have been unusual movements in the Sky Poison area recently. Each platoon must rotate positions. All personnel must be present during combat readiness, especially snipers, machine gunners, flamethrowers, and other special personnel..."
As Kaiyoumu spoke, the veterans' faces gradually became serious.
The two new recruits, Xu Ge and Li Dongshui, realized a fact, that is, the old company is different from the new recruit company. It is not that they only need to complete the training and then not worry about anything else, but they have corresponding tasks.
To put it simply, in addition to training, you also have to work!
“That’s basically what the meeting was about.”
After Kai Youmu finished speaking, everyone looked at Guo Yuanshuai.
Guo Yuanshuai put his legs down and sat up straight. "Let me first express my firm support for the work of the company and the battalion, and participate in border patrols and combat readiness maneuvers as normal."
Hearing this, Kaiyoumu felt relieved.
You should know that during the company meeting, the company commander Liu Guoping specifically emphasized that no one could be an exception.
At that time, Kai Youmu took the initiative to report that there was a sick person in his class, but the instructor Jiang Da assured him that there would be no problem with the old deputy class leader.
Now it seems that it is true.
"You four will either be discharged or transferred next year. Plus, you all have injuries and have made contributions and earned honors for the company. It's reasonable to give you some special consideration."
Guo Yuanshuai looked at the four veterans and said, "But you've all been in the Wolf Brigade for so many years. You should know that we are the border rapid reaction force. We directly help the motherland and the people guard the gate!"
"Deputy squad leader, there's no need to do any ideological work on us. You've already expressed your opinion, so how could we fall behind?" Niu San spoke first.
Wang Lin raised his hand: "Deputy, we'll do whatever you want us to do!"
Liu Senlin: "Me too!"
Su Liujun smiled: "Don't look at me, squad leader. I'm a warrior from the Wolf Brigade. I have a strong mind, isn't that great?"
Kai Youmu also raised his hand: "Deputy class leader, I also..."
"Does it have anything to do with you?"
Guo Yuanshuai said unhappily, then looked at the four veterans with a look of relief, "That's fine! Then we won't go to the military hospital for treatment for the time being. We'll wait until the end of the year when we have some free time. You can spend time as a sick person during regular training, but you can still participate in patrols and combat readiness!"
"yes!"
"Xu Ge, talk to Dr. Lin tonight and tell her we plan to go after next month or the end of the year. Ask her if that's okay?"
"It should be fine. Doctor Lin said it can be done anytime." Xu Ge replied.
Niu Sanxian looked unhappy: "Just ask me if I ask you. What's the matter? You can make decisions for my aunt directly now, right?"
Xu Ge: ...
"Why don't you ask yourself? She's your aunt." Wang Lin retorted.
Niu Sanxian said confidently: "I dare not!"
"Okay, let's adjourn the meeting."
Guo Yuanshuai stood up and said, "Don't play games tonight, the four of you. Pack your combat kits and attend the firing ceremony tomorrow morning. Oh, and teach these two new recruits how to write a suicide note."
Xu Ge and Li Dongshui: ???
Under what circumstances should you write a suicide note?
"Squad... Deputy Squad Leader, isn't there a gun-awarding ceremony tomorrow? There doesn't need to be any dead bodies, right?" Li Dongshui's face turned pale.
Guo Yuanshuai was amused: "Writing a suicide note is a routine, I have to write it every time during the war preparation period, don't be afraid, hahaha!"
Niu San first took out his battle preparation bag, opened it, and pulled out a piece of paper: "Here, if you two don't know how to write, just copy it."
Kai Youmu asked, "Deputy Class Leader, is the suicide note I wrote still there?"
"It's definitely gone. You have to rewrite it too."
"oh!"
Xu Ge took Niu Sanxian's suicide note, and Li Dongshui also came over to take a look.
The content on the paper is very simple, just a few simple sentences:
(Dad, Mom, Grandma, Grandpa, and Grandma, I still owe Ban Fu and Wang Lin over 10,000 yuan. Please remember to help me pay it back with my pension.
There's nothing in my phone, don't try to crack it! Just smash it!!!
Finally, love you guys, muah!)
. . .
. . .
The next morning, the veterans started working after breakfast.
Only two new recruits, Xu Ge and Li Dongshui, were left in Class Nine, sitting on the benches looking at each other. Everyone else had gone to the armory.
"Xu Ge, what did you write in your suicide note?" Li Dongshui asked curiously.
Xu Ge: "It's almost the same as Niu Sanxian's. As for you, I see you wrote several pages!"
Li Dongshui nodded. "Well, I have so many things to take care of. Just the placement of the figurines in my collection took up half a page."
"Why are you taking this so seriously? Do you really think this suicide note will be useful?"
"Who knows, what if I die?"
"With your military quality, you still want to sacrifice yourself? What else do you have besides accurate shooting? You can't even run well. By the time you arrive at the battlefield, the war will probably be over." Xu Ge said unhappily.
Li Dongshui wasn't annoyed, but instead chuckled: "I know you're upset, but there's nothing I can do. I'm just more accurate than you!"
The reason why Xu Ge disliked Li Dongshui so much was because the clerk delivered the gun numbers of each new recruit last night.
His gun was a 191 assault rifle, while Li Dongshui's was a 191 sniper rifle.
Xu Ge became angrier and angrier as he thought about it. He reached out to grab the scope from Li Dongshui's hand and said, "Give me back the scope. I'd rather smash it than give it to you!"
Li Dongshui immediately stood up and dodged: "How can you be so shameless..."
Beep beep beep!
"Everyone, gather downstairs in tactical attire!"
The two of them didn't care about playing around anymore. They quickly put on their hats and belts, put on their backpacks and water bottles, took helmets and tactical vests from the equipment cabinet at the door, and hurried downstairs.
On the playground, the veterans were already in position, each of them fully armed and carrying various firearms.
The most common weapon is the 191 assault rifle. In addition, each squad seems to have one or two sniper rifles, as well as squad machine guns and grenade launchers. There are even people in one row carrying flamethrowers.
Xu Ge was dazzled by what he saw. He had heard that there were many types of weapons in his old company, and this was really an eye-opener.
When we arrived at the third row, Kai Youmu was already standing at the edge as the squad leader of Class 9.
As Xu Ge fastened his helmet and made his way to the rear of the team, he vaguely felt that the gun on Wang Lin's back was much longer than that of the others. He took a quick look and was stunned.
"Damn! Wang Lin, what kind of gun is this? Why is it so big?!" Xu Ge exclaimed.
"Holy crap! Type 10 heavy sniper rifle... No, this is the latest model, the Type 201 high-precision sniper rifle!" Li Dongshui, who had followed, was stunned. "Wasn't this rifle just unveiled this year?"
Wang Lin turned around and smiled: "Not bad, Xiao Ashui, you are quite knowledgeable."
Li Dongshui swallowed hard, squeezed in front of Xu Ge, and reached out to touch the sniper rifle on Wang Lin's back. "Oh my god, our company actually has this treasure! My 191 precision marksman rifle suddenly feels less valuable!"
Xu Ge, a gun-blind man, didn't know what a Type 10 rifle or a Type 201 rifle was. He just felt that the gun on Wang Lin's back was extremely powerful. He asked curiously, "How far can this gun shoot?"
Li Dongshui said without hesitation: "The effective range is 1500 meters, and the maximum range is over 3000 meters. It can easily hit a coin within 800 meters!"
"Wow!" Xu Ge exclaimed.
Li Dongshui patted Wang Lin on the shoulder and said, "Wang Lin, how many 201mm high-precision sniper rifles do we have in our company?"
"This is the only one our battalion has." Wang Lin turned around and smiled. "You want one too?"
"Yeah, yeah!" Li Dongshui nodded frantically.
"Let's talk about it after you take first place in the group's shooting competition."
Li Dongshui was about to say something when Luo Shan in front of him had already started to form a team, so he immediately stood still.
After the company commander Liu Guoping gave a few brief remarks, the gun-awarding ceremony officially began.
The new recruits whose names were called stepped forward one by one and took their guns from the cadres and veterans.
When it was Xu Ge's turn, the person who handed him the gun was Guo Yuanshuai.
"Private Xu Ge!"
"arrive!"
"Taking over this steel gun means taking over the sacred responsibility entrusted by the motherland and the people. I hope you will cherish the weapon in your hands as you would your own life. Can you do that?"
"able!"
"Take the gun!"
Bang!
Xu Ge took the 191 assault rifle handed to him by Guo Yuanshuai and hung it solemnly on his chest.
Guo Yuanshuai handed over a small box containing a scope, flashlight, batteries, and other accessories, and whispered, "Don't lose the gas guide again!"
Xu Ge: ...
. . .
. . .
Huh~Huh~Huh~
Heavy breathing sounds came one after another.
All the members of the Sixth Company were running hard across the Gobi Desert with guns on their backs.
In order to take care of the new recruits, the veterans carrying the flag in front deliberately slowed down their speed, but many of them still slowly fell behind.
"Catch up, everyone! It's only been a short while and you're already losing track? If there's a war, you'll all be cannon fodder!"
Next to the third row of people, Luo Shan kept shouting.
Li Dongshui reached out and grabbed Xu Ge's water bottle strap, his eyes almost wandering away.
In contrast, the patients in Class 9 all looked relaxed. The deputy class leader even felt a little bored and lit a cigarette while running.
"Fuck, he's smoking during a five-kilometer cross-country run on the plateau?" Xu Ge was stunned.
"No...it's more than five kilometers, right?" Li Dongshui gasped in the back, "How much longer? I can't take it anymore!"
After the gun-awarding ceremony, the troops were taken out of the camp to the training ground for gun calibration.
The recruits originally thought that the training ground was nearby, but they didn't expect Liu Guoping to directly give the order to advance five kilometers.
"It's almost there, it's only 6,000 meters, and you look like you're half dead." Guo Yuanshuai turned around and cursed, "You two, hurry up and get to the front!"
Li Dongshui: "Ah?"
"What the hell? Can't you run? If you can't, give your gun to Xu Ge. He'll use two of them from now on!"
"Really, class vice-chairman?" Xu Ge immediately became alert.
"I can run!" Li Dongshui gritted his teeth and shouted, and forced himself to speed up.
Ten minutes later, the recruits finally saw the gate of the training ground.
Guo Yuanshuai ran to Su Liujun and said, "Go, try Xu Ge's tactical skills."
