Siheyuan: My Northeastern Farmhouse

Chapter 62
After leaving the steel rolling mill, other militia teams from Dongcheng District joined on the road, as well as soldiers from the Dongcheng District Armed Forces Department and the Beijing Garrison!
The location of this annual militia training is in Mentougou. The whole journey is about 30 kilometers. You must arrive before 5 pm today.Originally, Gu Weijun thought it was similar to the military training in his previous life, maybe just with more bullets in the shooting session.

But when the militia team left the West Second Ring Road about 5 kilometers away, the order came down immediately, "There is an aircraft reconnaissance in the northwest, pay attention to evacuate and hide immediately!"

"Beep!" The piercing whistle sounded, and one after another people in the team conveyed that there are planes in the northwest, evacuate and hide immediately!Anti-aircraft machine guns ready!Anti-aircraft machine guns ready!
Under the leadership and demonstration of the veterans, the militiamen quickly evacuated and hid on both sides of the road. The farmland on both sides of the road had been harvested, and the haystacks formed the best hiding spots!
Several female militiamen carried the Soviet-made DP-26, quickly ran past Gu Weijun, found a small bag of soil, set up the machine gun, and quickly took aim in the air after lying down.

Several female soldiers quickly ran to the car pulling the cannon, got on the car, and cooperated with pulling out the green protective net, quickly camouflaging the car and the cannon!Then pull off the safety, raise the muzzle, and be ready to fire at any time!
Gu Weijun was dumbfounded until he was kicked by Secretary Huang and scolded: "Why don't you go hide quickly and contact the rear headquarters?"

"Oh, oh!" Only then did Gu Weijun react and quickly made tactical moves. He trotted around, found a small pit, unhooked the radio, covered it with a green coarse cloth, quickly cranked it up, and quickly connected to the steel rolling mill.

"Hey?"

"Report to the headquarters, we encountered an enemy plane, heading northwest, over!"

"What me?" Chief Zheng's voice was broken, "Forget it, what's the mark on the fuselage?" "Reconnaissance plane or bomber?"

Gu Weijun looked up at the blue sky in a daze, "Maybe, maybe... it's blue?" "Maybe it's satellite remote sensing?"

"Haha, get lost!" "Remember the training manual again!" "Pa," Section Chief Zheng hung up the communication.

Gu Weijun is also very helpless... He has no training experience!I can’t make it up!

"Beep!" The whistle sounded again, and then the loudspeaker shouted: "Alert is off!" "Alert is off!"

"All departments return to the team!" "Guards on safety!"

Gu Weijun quickly packed up the radio and returned to Secretary Huang and Chief Hao.

Secretary Huang handed the big horn to Section Chief Hao Chuan. Section Chief Hao Chuan took the horn and shouted at the top of his voice: "Comrades, the air defense evacuation and concealment just now were done very well!"

"Especially the female militia comrades, they set up machine guns and artillery as soon as possible while hiding!"

"We must learn from our female militia comrades, applause!"

"Wow!" The militia team applauded.

Chief Hao continued to raise his voice, "Comrades, remember, reconnaissance planes fly high and make a quiet sound; bombers fly low and make a loud buzzing sound; fighter jets fly fast and make a buzzing sound."

"Moreover, you must see the pattern on the tail of the aircraft clearly. The Soviet revisionists are the red five-stars! The American emperor is the white five-stars! We are the red five-stars with Bayi!"

"Okay, move on!"

The team continued to move forward. Colleagues from the Propaganda Department immediately ran out of the team and continued to sing: "The sunset is flying over the western mountains and the clouds are flying!"

At three o'clock in the morning, a third of the march had passed, and the order was given again, "Rest where you are, boil water, replenish water, and eat!"

The militia team quickly divided into several teams, mainly female militiamen. They held shovels. They first tested the wind direction with cloth strips, and then each found a suitable position. They dug a deep pit first, and then a shallow pit two palms away.

The pit should be deep enough for squatting, and shallow enough for pots to be placed, and then opened from the bottom; then three more shallow trenches should be dug above the shallow pit to serve as flues.The flue is about 20 cm higher than the shallow trench. The shallow trench is covered with straw and then spread with soil.

After the smokeless stove was dug, the female militiamen quickly lit a fire under the shallow pit, took the bucket from the car and started boiling water.

During this process, Secretary Huang, Section Chief Hao, and Dongcheng District’s Armed Forces Minister Zhang Ping kept walking around the female militiamen who were digging smokeless stoves, and from time to time they gave guidance.Secretary Huang sighed: "These are all the experiences accumulated during the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea!" "We didn't dare to light a fire at that time. Once there was a fire, the American imperial plane would come soon."

"Also, I think we will need to add how to use the water sources around us in the future to practice filtering and disinfecting water!"

Minister Zhang Ping nodded solemnly, "Well, Political Commissar Huang is right. I think this time the militia training will include water-fetching training after they arrive at Mentougou!" "You can't eat dry food or cook at the base for these ten days. , Fetching water, making fire, and cooking in the wild must also be well trained!" "It's not very peaceful in the north now!"

The three of them were silent!
After a short rest, the team set off again. In the afternoon, they added radiation protection drills and gas protection drills.In short, try to be as real as possible to ensure that if a war suddenly breaks out, you can respond quickly and ensure an effective counterattack!
When we arrived at the Mentougou Militia Training Base, it was already moonlight and the stars were clear. Under the guidance of the base personnel, after allocating accommodation, several groups of female militiamen joined forces again and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

The hardest part today is actually for the female militiamen who serve as cooks. When resting during the march, they have to dig holes to boil water. When they arrive at the base at night, they have to prepare dinner as soon as possible.The dinner was very sumptuous, including steamed buns with Erhe noodles, a large pot of soup with a few eggs and tomatoes, and cabbage stewed with pork. Everyone also got a big piece of fatty meat!

After dinner, the female cooks and militiamen could not rest. They had to continue boiling water. It was necessary to ensure that every militiaman could soak their feet at night to relieve fatigue and activate blood circulation!

Of course, the other militiamen did not rest immediately, but continued to learn the knowledge in the "Militia Training Manual" under the leadership of their respective militia platoon and battalion commanders.There will be shooting training tomorrow, so the structure, maintenance, and shooting principles of each firearm will be explained, including the 53-type cover, Type [-] rifle, Type [-] rifle, light machine gun, etc., including: malfunction phenomena, causes, and solutions wait.

Gu Weijun is the commentator, starting from the most common [-] cover: "Do you see it?" "First turn the trigger handle to the left, pull it back to the end, load the magazine, press the bullet, and throw out the magazine , push the bolt forward, and finally turn the handle to the right."

"We just talked about the structure and shooting principle. After the bullet is loaded, the simplest thing is three points and one line: the eye, the sight, and the shooting target. After the trigger is pulled, the bullet will be fired."

"However, if the distance is too far, according to the gravity mentioned in the shooting principle, if it exceeds 50 meters, the ballistics must be calculated when shooting. We will explain the ballistic calculations of various firearms in detail later."

"Okay, let's learn to retract bullets now! Watch my demonstration!"

"Okay, now it's time to disassemble and maintain it!"

"In short, the Sanba Gai is a gun with little vibration, but has a long barrel and a long range; it is more suitable for hand-to-hand combat!"

"Now we continue to learn the next rifle: Type [-]."
