"Minister Zhang from the Armed Forces Department just left."
The old Party Secretary jumped off the table and whispered to Su Jianguo.
"They approved ten old guns for us; although they're quite old, they're still usable."
He pointed to the corner of the wall, where ten rifles were neatly arranged, with several boxes of ammunition next to them.
Su Jianguo's eyes lit up. With this equipment, he would be more confident in dealing with wild boars.
"This is the arrangement now."
The old Party Secretary raised his voice and turned to everyone.
"The thirty militiamen are divided into three teams of ten men each. Jianguo leads one team, Jianjun leads one team, and Zhao the Hunter leads one team."
The crowd immediately stirred, and someone shouted.

Su Jianjun straightened his back and patted the hunting rifle in front of his chest.
"Don't worry, Secretary, I guarantee the mission will be accomplished!"
"Old Zhao."
The old Party Secretary said this to Hunter Zhao in the end.

Su Jianguo's team consisted of eight young and strong villagers and two militiamen who knew how to use guns.
"Each person will be issued five bullets."
The old Party Secretary said sternly.
"Use it sparingly; the armed forces department has only given us this much."
