The heavens start from Changjin Lake

Niu Wa wrapped his gun in his arms and wiped it with a gray rag to make the gun shiny.

Holding the gun, he said, "Xia Yuan, do you know what this gun is called?"

Xia Yuan glanced at the gun in Niuwa's arms. This gun was handed down from the Qing Dynasty. It was equipped until the end of the Anti-Japanese War. It had a local name called Hanyang. The prototype of Hanyang was the German 1888 Committee Rifle. At that time, this gun had huge problems, such as difficulty in loading and unloading, poor reliability of extracting shells, and easy bombing. In 1898, the German military adopted the Mauser 1898 rifle to replace it.This type of rifle was resold to Turkey, some countries in Africa and the Qing government in China.

During the Westernization Movement, the Westernization Party believed in the "Mauser" brand very much. German businessmen lied about the 1888 committee rifle as a Mauser rifle, successfully deceived the Qing government, and sold the 1888 committee rifle as a Mauser rifle. Qing government.Beginning in 1896, Hanyang Armory Factory began to produce this type of rifle, and in 1899, Nanjiang Manufacturing Bureau also began to produce this type of rifle.

Since then, the Type 1888 rifle has also been called Hanyang-made.

And the Hanyang in Niuwa's arms has been made for some years, and Niuwa takes care of it like a treasure, but its accuracy is average, and its range is not as far as imagined. Most of them are eliminated, and there are huge problems.

That is to say, the junk equipment that others don't want is kept by the guerrillas like a treasure, and they almost never leave their bodies.It was still very difficult for the guerrillas in this period. There were no decent weapons. Most of them were made in the border area and old sleeves. The only good weapon was the eliminated Hanyang made in Niuwa’s hand.
The other pistols in Chuanbao's waist are imitation Mauser pistols among the people, and they are also made in the border area. Most of the foldable pistols are hand-made by blacksmiths in the base area. Some have an old barrel, and most of them have no rifling. Yes, only one bullet can be loaded at a time, the workmanship is extremely rough, the tolerance is extremely large, it often fails to fire, and the accuracy is even more outrageous. It is not too big to aim at a distance of 20 meters, and it is often aimed at the head to hit the foot. The range is short and the power is strong. Small, low unit cost, easy to replenish bullets, and some can be directly loaded with black powder.

Due to its low cost and simple production, some non-front-line guerrilla leaders almost have one hand, and they can be used as bullets with a little black powder.

As for the heavy firepower equipment, not to mention some guerrillas with better conditions, the only heavy firepower equipment of the main comrades in the border area is crookedly seized from the Japanese devils, so there is no need to think about cannons or anything.The heavy firepower equipment of Gaojiazhuang is the earth mine made by the villagers spontaneously. By making a shell and stuffing it with black powder, a land mine with not very powerful power is completed.

It was under such difficult conditions that the guerrillas relied on the wisdom of the masses to fight wits and courage with the puppet soldiers.

Because it is such a backward weapon, it may have been exchanged for a dozen Eighth Route Army soldiers with their lives.

Xia Yuan knew that the devils in the Heifengkou gun tower could not be moved for the time being, and he probably would wait until the stage of the big counterattack before taking out the devils in the Heifengkou gun tower. Strong, he can kill the devils and retreat cleanly, but the militia may not be able to, the guerrillas may not be able to, and the common people may not be able to.

"It's really fast. I'm not as proficient as you." Niu Wa still couldn't believe it. Xia Yuan had only touched the gun for a long time, and he just told him how to do it. After a few tries, he was able to pull it so proficiently. He is even smooth and smooth, without the slightest lag in his movements, and he is far more proficient than veteran fighters like them.

"No."

"Heifengkou gunhouse?" Niuwa couldn't help but clenched his hands on his knees, and said, "I know a lot. Heifengkou is only eight miles away from us. Sometimes it can come three times a day, but during this time, the devils There is a big sweep going on in other places, so I have no time to take care of this side."

After touching this kind of antique-level weapon, Xia Yuan sighed a little. The Red Army used such crude weapons to conquer the world.

While being surprised in his heart, he was relieved at the same time. This kid is a material for shooting guns, and he began to look forward to it again in his heart. If this kid can shoot accurately, that would be great.

Xia Yuan knows that people in this era have a feudal mindset, and many people have no knowledge. They subconsciously think that exercising like Xia Yuan is useless and will only waste energy in vain.

Of course, there are no bullets for shooting targets now, and ammunition is the most important issue in Gaojiazhuang. Not to mention Gaojiazhuang, even the border area is very short of bullets, and most of the bullets made in the border area are supplied to On the main combat troops, there are very few who can get some for them.

Niu Wa said: "Of course, isn't the border area also holding a meeting on this matter? It is probably to discuss countermeasures. This kind of matter is beyond your control."

The most important point is that the devils who have suffered will vent their anger on the people in the nearby villages, arrange for the transfer of the people in the enemy-occupied areas, and so on. All aspects need to be coordinated and coordinated.

"Maybe, it's talent."

Moreover, every action requires the coordination and cooperation of all parties.

Holding the gun, Niuwa sat down on the ridge of the field and said, "Let's not talk about our village, even the entire border area. There is a shortage of weapons and ammunition. There are more than 40 militiamen in our village, and there are only four guns. Everyone else uses them." It’s a long gun, so don’t worry, when the time comes when the gun is seized, it will be given to you first, it would be even better if there is a gun that has been eliminated, Chacha can actually still be used.”

For example, in Liangjian, Li Yunlong acted without authorization to fight the little devil. The brigade commander knew that it was too late when Li Yunlong acted without authorization. On the one hand, he ordered Li Yunlong to come to see him after the battle was over. The Japanese devils with additional staff blocked it.

"Talent, talent." Niu Wa coughed lightly, and said again: "Putting the bolt is just one of them. The most important thing is to hit accurately. If you don't hit correctly, it is a waste of bullets, so proficiency in movements is secondary, just remember How to pull the bolt, how to load, how to fire the gun will do."

Gao Chuanbao was a person who had fought, and he knew the horror of the devils. He sat on the ridge and said, "The Heifengkou gun tower has been around for several years. It's not that the guerrillas have never fought, and they can't be defeated at all. Besides, you go to harass the devils and kill them." Devil soldiers, the people in the nearby villages will suffer, the devils are very revengeful, you can't mess around, you just join the guerrillas, don't think about doing anything, another point, beating devils is not as simple as you think .”

He once heard the saying that when a person is alive, the gun is there, and when the person is dead, the gun is dead, which means that the gun must be there when the person is there, and the gun must be destroyed when the person is gone. This is to prevent it from being captured by the enemy, but At this time, there is no such rule. After all, the guerrillas and militias are extremely short of weapons and equipment at this time, and guns far exceed their lives.

"Have you touched a gun before?"

Niu Wa nodded in satisfaction, muttering in her heart, talent, is my talent poor?He began to doubt life a little bit, thinking that it would take a certain amount of time for Xia Yuan to skillfully pull the bolt and shoot, but he didn't expect that he was so proficient in speaking just now.

Niu Wa patted Xia Yuan on the shoulder, handed him the bullet and put it away in his bosom, and said, "By the way, I see that you often exercise in the village, save some energy, and use it to beat the little devil."

Xia Yuan lowered his head, as if accepting the preaching, but he was also thinking in his heart, discussing countermeasures.

"Brother Niuwa, I know this gun, it was made by Hanyang." Xia Yuan pointed at the gun and said.

Xia Yuan pondered for a moment, and said, "Brother Niuwa, have you ever thought about whether the devils will attack the villages near Gaojiazhuang if they finish their raids over there?"

He handed the gun to Xia Yuan and said, "Come and try."

In fact, mobilizing guerrillas to attack the gun towers is an untenable statement in itself.On the one hand, the militia, guerrillas, armed forces, and the Eighth Route Army all emphasize the importance of discipline. This is also the three major disciplines, the eight points of attention, and various policies in the future.

Xia Yuan touched his head with a hint of embarrassment.

Niu Wa stared, and his eyes widened.

Niu Wa said from the side: "After you beat the devil and seize the devil's gun, you will have your own gun. The gun is life, and life is the gun. Even if the person is gone, the gun must be there!"

Especially in the current situation of Gaojiazhuang, Gaojiazhuang is not the only village that is fighting the Japanese devils. If he acts without authorization, he will soon be retaliated by the devils there.Therefore, any premise based on the action plan against the devils needs to be distributed to all divisions, detachments, and teams to coordinate and cooperate with each other. You attack, I flank, you cut off the devil's retreat, I cut off the devil's increase, and you destroy the road , I transferred the masses, and the various divisions in the entire region cooperated with each other and acted in an orderly manner.

Niuwa took the gun, took out a bullet from his bosom and handed it to Xia Yuan, "This is the bullet. Our village doesn't have many bullets. I only have three bullets on me. When the little devil comes, I will shoot more bullets." , but not too many, a lot of bullets need to be saved for future needs.”

Xia Yuan didn't explain too much about this, but just changed the subject and asked, "Brother Niuwa, how much do you know about the devils at Heifengkou?"

Xia Yuan nodded and said: "Brother Niuwa, don't worry, the gun is here! The gun is here when the man is gone!"

Not to mention that he has just joined the guerrillas, even if he is the guerrilla captain, he can't just act when he says he will act. There are also village chiefs, district chiefs, the Eighth Route Army, and so on.

Xia Yuan didn't dislike it either. He reached out to take it and touched the wiped gun. For Niuwa and the others, the gun was their life. Seeing is more important than your own life.

Xia Yuan was full of displeasure, and he said, "Brother Niu Wa, don't worry, I'm not in a hurry. Brother Niu Wa, I'll give you the bullet."

As far as the bullets in Gaojiazhuang have been stored for several months, there are only more than 80 bullets, and the old village head ordered people to strictly guard them. On weekdays, Niuwa only carries three bullets on his body.

Gao Chuanbao just heard Xia Yuan's words, came over and said: "Nonsense, this is an act without authorization, but we will be criticized, and we can't touch the devils in the Heifengkou gun tower, that will be sacrificed, Heifengkou's position is condescending, If you can't fight, you can't attack, three or five devils can guard an area, just a few guns in your hand."

Xia Yuan said again: "Brother Niuwa, have you ever thought about taking advantage of the devil's sweep to attack the devils in the Heifengkou gun tower?"

"By the way, this is made in Hanyang. There are only four in our village, one for me, one for Chuanbao, one for your Gouwa, and one for Dabao." Niuwa held the gun and said, "I'll give it to you." You talk about how to pull the bolt, how to fire the gun, well, here is the bolt, once you pull it and turn it, it will open, put the bullet in, push it, aim and pull the trigger. "

"Brother Niuwa, I will." Xia Yuan simply tried a few times, and then under Niuwa's shocked eyes, he pulled the bolt and loaded it very skillfully. The movement changed from stiff to smooth, and Niuwa was shocked .

He seemed to feel that the previous words were too heavy. Thinking of Xia Yuan's life experience, Gao Chuanbao's lips murmured, a little unbearable, and sighed: "Xia Yuan, I know you are eager to take revenge, but if you have to pay attention to a process, that's it. It is the same as planting crops. Without spring sowing, there is no good autumn harvest. The Heifengkou gun tower has been standing in Heifengkou for several years. The guerrillas fought dozens of times, and every time they suffered heavy casualties. It is not a sneak attack. It will be able to sneak attack successfully."

The most important point is that many of them have no weapons and equipment. If the people in front die, the people behind can pick up the weapons and equipment left by the people in front and continue fighting. They never put their guns when they die. Destroys the idea of ​​preventing enemy capture.

Xia Yuan nodded heavily, "Brother Niuwa, don't worry, I will practice my gun well, and I will definitely kill more little devils then."

It's not that if you want to act, you can act.

Thinking of this, Xia Yuan felt quite sad, and his thoughts became more firm.

The most critical point is that the four guns with low precision are difficult to form a large-scale combat effectiveness.

"The devils are fierce, and the puppet army is ruthless. We need to find an opportunity to wipe them all out. Otherwise, when the spring wind blows, they will be blown up again, and weeds will be wiped out."

Gao Chuanbao knows big characters and understands big principles, and he speaks clearly and logically. He said: "Comrade Xia Yuan, revenge can't be in a hurry. If something happens to you, who will avenge Xiazhuang? Kill one or two devils." The puppet army is not relieved at all, if you want to kill them, kill them all!"

Niu Wa also found an opportunity, and said: "Brother Chuanbao is right, weeds must be cut by the roots, otherwise, the people nearby will suffer. Xia Yuan, revenge is not in a hurry. Guess you just learned how to pull the bolt, in the future I also want to teach you how to hit the enemy, practice the gun well, devils can't escape!"

Xia Yuan nodded superficially, but actually had a new idea in his heart.
