Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower
Chapter 21: Meeting Shunliu
Thinking of this, Lin Tian suddenly became enlightened.
He said to the villagers: "If there are any young people in your family or village who are willing to join the army to fight the Japanese, you can come here to find us at any time."
"When you arrive, you'll be given a gun, and you'll practice live ammunition shooting every day. You'll also get more than a dozen dollars a month. If you kill the Japanese, we'll give you an extra reward."
"If anyone is injured or sacrificed, we will provide compensation."
When the villagers heard this, they thought it was a great idea as they could fight the Japanese and get a salary of more than ten dollars.
They all gave Lin Tian a thumbs up and praised him continuously.
"Hey, Old Sun, let's ask your bull to join the army. It would be a pity if your bull, with all his strength, stays at home farming instead of killing the Japanese devils!"
"Commander, my little tiger just turned eighteen this year. He fights with others all the time. I will send him to you later. Please discipline him for me!"
"The salary is so high! If I weren't so old, I would have wanted to join the army!"
"No! I have to let my grandson join the army. This kid is always wielding guns and sticks. It would be a waste if he doesn't come to fight the Japanese!"
"Chief, I want to join you!"
"Yes, Chief, if you want us, we will stay here today and not leave!"
……
The fellow villagers were talking about it.
This is much more profitable than farming at home. Moreover, the military salaries of the Central Army, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army and other factions of the same period were not as high.
They would often deduct money from the soldiers, and the officers would often beat and scold the soldiers. Serving in their army was like being treated like a beast of burden, and they would often lead you to harm the common people.
The Eighth Route Army is different. It is the real team that fights the Japanese invaders and is the people's army.
After hearing Lin Tian's words, fifteen of the twenty or so young men immediately shouted that they wanted to join Lin Tian's team.
The rest of the people also wanted to participate, but they couldn't leave their families without someone, and the old masters were too old to play even if they wanted to.
However, those who did not sign up still clamored to ask their relatives and friends to join the army after they came down the mountain.
Lin Tian accepted everyone who came and immediately arranged for Fang Zheng to take a few soldiers to be responsible for the registration of these fifteen new soldiers.
There was no other choice. To register, one had to write. There were more than a hundred people in the queue, but only three of them could write. After much thought, Fang Zheng was the only one who could do it.
Once the base is built, these young and strong men can officially participate in training.
After explaining these things, Lin Tian saluted his fellow villagers again and then led the team to continue running exercises.
After running, it was time for breakfast. Lin Tian sat on a small stool at the door and started eating with a bowl.
After a while, Fang Zheng also squatted next to Lin Tian with a bowl of rice in his hand and a list in his other hand.
"Platoon leader..."
Fang Zheng swallowed the food in his mouth and said.
"This is the information of the fifteen young men who registered this morning. It includes their names, ages, addresses, family members, and land holdings."
"I thought that if someone were to die one day, we could use this information to provide more living care for the martyr's family."
"After all, the Japanese bullets don't have eyes. Maybe I, Fang, will die gloriously someday."
When Lin Tian heard this, he glared and cursed.
"What the hell are you talking about, kid?!"
"Just live your life well, don't talk about honor or dishonesty!"
Seeing Fang Zheng scratching his head, Lin Tian took the list, glanced at it, and said, "Well, not bad, I'll collect all the information later. What you said makes sense. War is ruthless."
"and many more…"
"This is…"
"Shunliu?!"
"Fang Zheng, did you write the name correctly?"
Lin Tian pointed at Shunliu's name on the list, widened his eyes, and asked in shock.
"Platoon leader, you are still not confident in our work."
"But this name is a bit strange. The others all have given names, but this one seems to be just a nickname. It doesn't even have a surname."
"I checked it several times when I registered."
"Shunliu said that his father told him that his mother gave birth to him very smoothly, and he was born in a flash, so his parents named him Shunliu."
Fang Zheng looked at the list and said with a smile.
When Lin Tian heard Fang Zheng's words, he didn't run away. It seemed that it was Shunliu. This was too coincidental. It seemed that because of his time travel, he brought people from other dimensions to his world.
After taking a look at the list, Lin Tian shouted excitedly: "Great, great!"
"Fang Zheng, stop eating and go get Shunliu for me."
After hanging out with Li Yunlong for a long time, Lin Tian was also subtly influenced by Li Yunlong's style. Sometimes when he was anxious or excited, he began to speak fluently.
When Fang Zheng heard this, he asked, "What are you doing, platoon leader? I just had my bowl of food served to me and I haven't even taken two bites yet." However, looking at Lin Tian's serious expression, Fang Zheng sensitively realized that this Shunliu might not be simple.
He immediately stood up, picked up the bowl, tilted his head back, stuffed all the rice into his mouth, threw the bowl away, and ran out in one step.
In less than ten minutes, Fang Zheng ran back from the construction site with Shunliu.
At this time, Shunliu was standing behind Fangzheng, at a loss as to what to do.
Shunliu had just come down from the construction site. In the middle of winter, he was only wearing a short vest and was steaming all over. It was obvious that he had worked very hard.
Looking at Lin Tian in astonishment, Shunliu stammered and asked, "Platoon... Platoon leader, I heard you were looking for me."
Shunliu didn't know why the platoon leader called him here, and thought that he was dissatisfied with his work not working hard enough.
His face changed, and he said anxiously: "Platoon... Platoon leader, I will work hard and not take the platoon leader's salary for nothing..."
Lin Tian was amused when he heard this and said with a smile: "Who said you didn't work hard? Huh?"
"Tell me, I'll teach him a lesson for you."
Shunliu was even more confused when he heard this. It wasn't like the army was dissatisfied with him for not working hard enough. Could it be that the army didn't want him anymore because he was too small?
He hurriedly explained: "Platoon leader, don't look at me because I am small and thin."
"My father said that I have meat on my bones."
"I can run back and forth in the mountains without taking a breath, Platoon Leader. If you don't believe me, I'll run for you to see."
Lin Tian looked at Shunliu's honest appearance and laughed. He immediately comforted Shunliu not to get excited, saying it was not what he thought.
"Let me ask you, have you been hunting in the mountains with your father since you were a child?"
Shunliu listened and thought, is it possible to hunt in the mountains?
More anxious.
"Platoon leader... Platoon leader... Platoon leader."
"My father and I only hunted a few wild deer to supplement our family income. We didn't have..."
Before Shunliu could finish speaking, Lin Tian interrupted him.
"Who said you can't go hunting? Just listen to me quietly."
"You've been hunting in the mountains with your father since you were a child, so you must be fast, have good endurance, and be an accurate shooter?"
"Can you fire a gun? Come with me to the shooting range and shoot a few rounds."
Shunliu followed Lin Tian with trepidation, and they arrived at the shooting range.
Lin Tian asked a soldier to bring his Mauser 98k sniper rifle, remove the scope, and throw it to Shunliu.
"Can you shoot? Fire two shots and show me."
The movement from Lin Tian's side immediately attracted the attention of all the soldiers on the training ground.
Shunliu took the gun without saying a word, looking into the distance, just when everyone was confused.
Suddenly, Shunliu moved, raised his gun, aimed, and shot, all in one go.
"Oh!"
One shot.
The gunshots echoed in the valley for a long time.
"What's this fight?"
"It's just shooting into the air, why is the platoon leader making such a fuss?"
"What is this kid doing?"
Listening to the doubts of others, Shunliu raised his finger and said in the direction of the gunshot: "There is a dead rat over there."
"Dead rat?"
"Where is where?"
"Is the distance about 400 meters?"
"Can you see a motionless dead mouse from that far away?"
"This kid is really good at bragging."
"Yeah, yeah, you're really good at it."
