Show the sword, start from the guerrillas

Chapter 173 Chapter 172, let’s do it!

"There are senior fitters? That's all right!" Li Yuexuan was relieved when he heard there were senior fitters! With an eighth-level fitter, what else do you need a lathe for?

How good are the skills of senior fitters? Well, with the blueprint, hand-rolling a rifle is nothing to them. Moreover, there are some jobs that they have to do by themselves, and the equipment cannot do it.

"Haha, as long as you are satisfied! Those drawings you showed me just now, are they for making guns?" Zhu Xingyu followed here from the east wing, so he asked this question.

"Well, as long as we can tinker with everything on the blueprint, we can make our own guns! However, the time span will be a bit long. After all, making a gun is not like reloading bullets. That requires a lot of processes. By the way, have the explosives and pig iron been delivered?" Li Yuexuan asked.

"It was delivered, but the explosives were placed at the house at the east entrance of the village. We didn't dare bring them here! After all, Kaizi explosives are not TNT. They might break after the explosion!" said Zhu Xingyu.

"Ha... now that everything has been delivered, let's get started. What are we waiting for?" Li Yuexuan had been drawing the blueprints for several days and was ready to take action.

"Don't worry about this. Make arrangements for the comrades first and we can start tomorrow! We have to eat one bite at a time and do things one step at a time. How about you go and check on the supplementary platoon first?" Zhu Xingyu said in a comforting tone.

"Well, I was anxious. Let the comrades settle down first! By the way, do we have enough supplies? Don't mistreat the technical workers. They need to do a good job in food, clothing, shelter, and security!" At this time, Li Yuexuan suddenly remembered that he was still a "second mate", so he asked.

"Haha..." Zhu Xingyu grinned and said, "Don't worry about these. We have killed a lot of devils this time and obtained some supplies. Together with our inventory, it is enough for the new comrades!" Zhu Xingyu said with a smile.

"Then I'll go around and take a look at the new recruits first!" Li Yuexuan said, then he tidied himself up, took out the box gun and hung it on his belt, hung the survival axe above the ammunition bag on his chest, rearranged the engineer shovel and hung it diagonally on the left side behind him, and then walked out of the yard.

"Comrade Youshun, be careful!" Zhu Xingyu looked at Li Yuexuan's receding back and reminded him, then turned around to take care of the equipment installation.

Just as Li Yuexuan walked out of the yard, Cai Xiaotian, who had been waiting outside, came out from his hiding place and followed Li Yuexuan. Cai Xiaotian changed into a military uniform and a sheepskin coat. The TT33 pistol could not be seen under the sheepskin coat, but he could quickly pull it out. It must be said that it makes sense for bandits to like wearing sheepskin coats.

Of course, Cai Xiaotian was carrying a rifle at this time, which was the Type 44 rifle. Not to mention, the short gun body looked very harmonious on Cai Xiaotian's back.

"I've been busy drawing these days. How is Xu Hongying adapting to the new gun?" Li Yuexuan asked.

"I have already familiarized myself with the structure of the gun, but the specific shooting results still require live ammunition shooting before the final judgment can be made!" Cai Xiaotian's voice still sounds like a child, but the words he spoke are in the tone of an adult, and sound very funny.

"Well, let's go to the recruit training ground first, and then bring Class 7 and the sharpshooters from each class, and then we'll test the quality of the reloaded bullets!" Li Yuexuan said.

"Shouldn't you tell the captain about this?" Cai Xiaotian reminded. "I'll report to him when I get back! Quality is more important than quantity. How can we ensure the combat effectiveness of our guerrillas? We can't rely on the new recruits, we have to rely on the veterans and squad leaders! Of course, the new recruits will grow and eventually become veterans, and then our combat effectiveness will increase!" Li Yuexuan said as he walked.

"Hmm..." Cai Xiaotian nodded vigorously behind him, he also agreed with this statement.

The two of them walked at a leisurely pace, not in a hurry, but soon arrived at the training ground outside the village. However, the first thing they saw was not the new recruits fighting there, but the tall Lowe, who was training a group of veterans in close combat.

"Look at me, this move of mine may look stupid, but in actual combat, as long as I grab the enemy's head with both hands, I can break his neck in one go!" Luo Wei stood in a horse stance, with both hands in front of him, making a rotating motion. Well, it looks stupid, but the neck twist is very powerful.

"Okay, I've taught you all the essentials of the movements. It's not good to practice this on each other, because a mistake can mean a life! So, each of you should hold a sandbag in your hands and practice twisting your hands!"

Li Yuexuan and Cai Xiaotian smiled at each other as they watched Luo Wei teach his special moves to the veterans. They both knew this move and knew it was powerful, so they didn't comment on it.

Continue walking eastwards and you will reach the woods where everyone practiced the locust stone, which was also the place where pigs were slaughtered and meat was cooked. Of course, now it has become a training ground for 50 new soldiers.

"Comrades, this move is called a kick to the crotch with a gun! This move combined with your bayonet skills can play a decisive role in actual combat! Watch out..." Yang Gongxun held a Type 38 rifle in his hand and made a stabbing motion. Then, when he drew back the gun, he made a blocking motion and his right foot quickly popped out and then quickly fell back.

"Just this move, if used well, can make the Japanese fly away in one go! Comrade Wei Youtian from Class 1 has already used this in actual combat! In that battle, he personally killed a Japanese soldier, and also made himself go from a rookie to a veteran with a record of killing the enemy! The key is that he killed the Japanese in his own field!"

"Comrades, we are the poor people's army, the soldiers of our fellow villagers. If we master this move, we can protect our parents and relatives at the critical moment! Okay, now follow my command..."

Seeing the new recruits already practicing the crotch kick, Li Yuexuan smiled knowingly. How come the ram's trick of blasting the balls works so well on the devils?
While the new recruits were practicing hard, Li Yuexuan found Xu Hongying who was practicing holding a gun alone in a corner of the training ground. He said hello to Guo Liandong and went to the Seventh Company.

When he and Cai Xiaotian returned to the east wing of the Liang family compound, Class 7 was already ready for another shooting practice. In the last battle, Class 7 was unable to participate in the final battle, which was a pity. Everyone was excited to be able to shoot again today.

Zhao Danian and the others now almost unconditionally supported Li Yuexuan's request! So, Li Yuexuan quickly followed Cai Xiaotian out of the village with 200 rounds of bullets and went to the shooting range.

After this live-fire shooting, Li Yuexuan's work focus in the guerrillas will officially shift from training to production.
