Wandering the Heavens

Chapter 259 Special Forces Blades Out of the Sheath 32

The instructor reported for duty on a sunny afternoon. The scene was rather quiet. He was driven to the base by Chen Shanming, not brought by any of the top figures in the brigade.

In less than a year, Gong Jian was already a major. Chen Shanming took him to the barracks to settle down, put on the red blood cell training uniform, and went to the grass of the training ground to meet the red blood cell team. Yu Xian was explaining to everyone how to prevent and respond to chemical gas. There was an hour of drill every day, which was more professional than other troops now.

"I didn't expect that when I came here again, Golden Eagle had retired." Looking at the Langya that had changed a lot, Gong Jian was a little uncomfortable.

"You know his physical condition. His disability has been rated, so it's only a matter of time before he changes his job. Before he left, he recommended you to No. 1, and No. 1 took advantage of the fact that the Iron Fist Group had just been reorganized and the Navy Department didn't understand the situation and quickly brought you here." Chen Shanming comforted.

"How is the red blood cell training going during this period?" Gong Jian was more concerned about this.

"This Yu Xian is good. I am responsible for the conventional special operations training, while he is responsible for some more professional subjects, such as chemical defense and radiation protection. I have to say that young people have a lot of ideas, but we are old."

"Yes, thank you for your hard work during this period. From now on, we will live and die together!" Gong Jian stretched out his fist.

"Live and die together!" Chen Shanming also stretched out his fist and bumped it with Gong Jian.

After catching up on the past, the two came to the place where the lecture was to be held. Yu Xian paused and signaled everyone to stand up and turn around.

"Let me introduce to you all. This is Gong Jian, the instructor of our Red Cell Special Operations Team!" Chen Shanming pointed at Gong Jian and introduced him.

"Hello, instructor!" The seven people stood at attention and saluted.

"Hello everyone!" Gong Jian also stood at attention and saluted in response.

What happened next was more interesting. After Gong Jian finished a few simple words, he signaled Yu Xian to continue his lecture. A new official has three things to do when he takes office. Yu Xian knew that he was going to find an opportunity to make a point, but now was not the right time. He had to wait until everyone finished listening to the lecture.

Yu Xian didn't know what to say. He could barely have a say during training, but Gong Jian had to make the decision on everything else.

Sure enough, after the class was over, Gong Jian said he would go to check on everyone's barracks. As soon as he entered, he immediately became angry and said that the housekeeping was not good and it was a disgrace to the soldiers. Give them half an hour to clean it and he would come to check it.

When half an hour was up, he put on white gloves and touched Song Kaifei's bed board, saying it was not up to standard and he had to keep working on it. It was already dark after all this work. As a punishment for the Red Blood Cell's poor housekeeping, he was allowed to skip dinner and continue training.

Looking at the fully armed Red Cell team crawling forward in the mud, Gong Jian finally felt that they looked like a special forces unit.

The days that followed were much simpler. After all, Gong Jian had experience studying abroad. He studied Yu Xian's training outline, and found someone to have a frank talk with. He revised the training outline, increased the weight of some specialized subjects, and submitted it to the brigade for discussion and evaluation.

Looking at the order of the names on the outline, Yu Xian felt embarrassed. After a period of conducting training, he knew that the first version of the outline he had produced was so immature that it was unbearable to look at.

First, he made systematic modifications and improvements under the guidance of Chen Shanming. Now Gong Jian is teaching him step by step to further organize it. Finally, he saw his name placed in the most conspicuous place, and the names of Chen Shanming and Gong Jian placed in the guidance position. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that he was not worthy of the position.

After the brigade commander and the political commissar saw the training outline, they directly implemented it using the red blood cells as a pilot to see the results. At the same time, they also used the political commissar's relationship to hand the outline to a military academy for study and improvement.

He Chenguang felt a little lost. Since the new training outline was finalized and officially implemented after Gong Jian's arrival, he felt that all the skills he was proud of were being abandoned by this era.

For example, the sniper tactics learned since childhood are how to snipe targets from a long distance. Now Yu Xian can transform a model airplane into a miniature bomber, flying directly over the enemy's head to drop grenades; he can also load the remote-controlled boats used by anglers for baiting with high explosives for surface combat, etc.

As for the matter of marksmanship, He Chenguang was better than Yu Xian in sniping, but he was not as good as Yu Xian in burst shooting and rapid shooting. After the loyalty assessment, the action report sent by Dog Head Lao Gao specifically mentioned Yu Xian's marksmanship. He shot accurately and shot down the tranquilizer gun in his team's hands.

This reminded He Chenguang of a detail he had overlooked during the training of the recruit company. At that time, everyone aimed for several seconds before firing, which made it take longer to fire. But Yu Xian, whether it was five or ten rounds, would have fired all of them when others had only fired two or three, and his score was not low.

Although Yu Xian's various tactical moves were not as good as He Chenguang's, they were just tactical moves. If they fought with real swords and guns, they would not win at all. Thinking of this, He Chenguang looked at his collar badge and felt a little guilty.

Gong Jian also noticed his mentality and went to talk to him specifically. Not long after the conversation, Tang Xinyi came.

The development of the military game hit a bottleneck because the tactical movements of the models found did not meet the requirements. Finally, at the reminder of Gu Xiaojie, He Chenguang came to Langya again for help. Gong Jian saw this as an opportunity for He Chenguang to regain his confidence. Knowing the relationship between He Chenguang and Tang Xinyi, he took the opportunity to borrow him for two hours a day.

Time always flies when there is something to do. After a few months of running-in, the Red Cell Team faced its first test. Gao Shiwei, deputy commander of the military region, was coming to inspect the newly formed special operations team. If nothing unexpected happened, something unexpected happened.

Li Erniu, this honest boy, was too nervous and made a fool of himself, and even shot the hostage target. In order not to leave a bad impression on Gao Shiwei, He Chenguang took the responsibility and passed Gao Shiwei's test.

Gao Shiwei was an experienced man, and could not hide He Chenguang's thoughts from him at all. However, he could also see the solidarity of the Red Cell Team. At the same time, He Chenguang's marksmanship also saved this unsuccessful inspection.

In response, Gao Shiwei praised He Chenguang, and his next words revealed that the inspection was about to end. He Chenguang did not understand this and said that sniping was only a part of red blood cells, and there were other training subjects that needed to be demonstrated.

As soon as these words came out, Gong Jian and Chen Shanming secretly felt that something was wrong.

Gao Shiwei didn't care, saying that he had military experience and knew what the troops' reports were, so he didn't need to read them. He Chenguang didn't think so, saying that the Red Blood Cells had trained overtime for a month to prepare for the inspection, and had revised and improved the preparation plan again and again. If the general didn't take a look, it would disappoint everyone.

"I looked at the team list, and you also appointed an acting deputy team leader?" Gao Shiwei did not respond directly to He Chenguang's words but changed his approach.

"Report, I am Yu Xian, deputy leader of the Red Cell Special Operations Team!" Yu Xian stepped forward, saluted and said loudly.

"Well, you look good. How do you think the Red Cell Team is doing now?" Gao Shiwei asked.

"Report, unqualified!" Yu Xian said without any hesitation.

"Well, why?"

Gao Shiwei was surprised by Yu Xian's answer, and the Red Cell members were even more dissatisfied.

"Report, Sun Tzu's Art of War says, 'Be swift as the wind, be slow as the forest, be aggressive as fire, be still as a mountain, be unpredictable as the shadow, and be powerful as thunder. The most basic discipline of a qualified army is silence. Obviously, the red blood cells have not learned to be silent." Yu Xian glanced at He Chenguang next to him and said.

"Your answer surprised me, but I give the Red Cell a passing grade today. This is because you have not only achieved excellence in military expertise, but also have not fallen behind in ideology. Remember, you are not serving as a soldier for me, Gao Shiwei, you are serving the people, and this military uniform is not for me. You don't need to prepare carefully for my inspection, but you should train and kill the enemy to defend the interests of the country and the people."

Gao Shiwei glanced at Yu Xian and He Chenguang, then at the members behind him, and thought for a long time before giving a summary.

After seeing Gao Shiwei off, Gong Jian's face fell. Two accidents happened during one inspection. All members practiced for three hours more. After the extra practice, they held a summary meeting. He Chenguang and Li Erniu made self-criticisms at the meeting.

"Yu Xian, why did you say that the red blood cells were substandard in front of the leader?"

He Chenguang was obviously not convinced. He felt that he had done nothing wrong. Even though he had just read his self-criticism at the meeting, he still couldn't understand it. After the meeting, he immediately went to Yu Xian to argue with him.

"Were the leader's words not clear enough?" Yu Xian was so tired that his eyelids were fighting and he just wanted to wash his clothes and go to bed.

"I am convinced by what the commander said, but why did you say that the red blood cells were unqualified?" He Chenguang emphasized his question.

"I told you the reason right then and there. Do you have any other explanation?" Yu Xian said as he changed his clothes.

"Are you being fair to everyone by saying this? Are you being fair to all the hard work you've done these days?" He Chenguang saw Yu Xian trying to go out with the basin and pulled him along.
