751. Chapter 751 Field Military Training

"I heard that there is braised pork in the cafeteria today!"

"Is there such a good thing? Then you have to hurry up, it's too late to be robbed by the veterans!"

When Sun Zhen heard the news, he couldn't care about the fatigue of training, so he trotted all the way back to the dormitory with his team, quickly took the dishes and chopsticks and rushed to the cafeteria. {We don't write novels, we're just online text porters - although the food supply of the Haihan militia is good, and you can see oil and meat every day, but most of them are cheap seafood, and there is very little food supply for poultry and meat. Meat dishes like braised pork can only be eaten once in ten days and half a month. The last time the canteen served back to the pot meat, Sun Zhen's recruit class was too slow, and when he went to the canteen, there were only scraps left, and in the end, everyone was given a few pieces of meat the size of a fingernail.

However, this time Sun Zhen's quick response finally ensured that he did not miss the opportunity to fight the tooth sacrifice again. And today's canteen especially serves not only braised pork, but also two meat and two vegetarian stir-fried dishes in each class. After each team finished eating, they had to sit around the dinner table and wait for the military discipline officer to announce the start of the meal, Sun Zhen took advantage of this gap to ask the veterans he knew at the table next to him: "Today's food is so good, is it a holiday?"

The veteran glanced at him and said, "What kind of festival will you have when you don't touch the world and the ground? This is going to send troops! Make a tooth sacrifice first, and then it is estimated that you will have to eat dry food for a while!"

"Out of ...... Send troops?" Although Sun Zhen was nervous, he couldn't help but start to get nervous when he heard this: "I haven't finished my recruit training yet, and I'm going to go to the battlefield?"

The veteran smiled: "Sending troops does not necessarily mean going out to fight...... Don't guess, General Qian is here, and something will definitely be announced later. ”

Sun Zhen turned around, and sure enough, he saw Qian Tiandun appear in the cafeteria surrounded by several guards. It was unusual to see Qian Tiandun appear at this time and place, after all, his three meals were all prepared by the man and sent to the office alone, and he would not eat with ordinary soldiers in the cafeteria.

"General Qian is here!" With a shout, everyone immediately stood up and stood upright, holding their breath and waiting for Qian Tiandun's lecture.

"Before the meal begins, I announce one thing. Qian Tiandun's voice was not loud, but everyone could hear it clearly: "After lunch tomorrow, the first company of the special operations battalion and the third company of recruits will gather at the No. 7 pier of Magonggang for a week-long wilderness survival training. The specific destination and training content will be announced when the time comes, okay, let's sit down and eat. ”

After Qian Tiandun left, the cafeteria immediately became lively, and many people were speculating about where the destination of this training would be, and why two companies, one old and one new, would be arranged to train together.

Although Qian Tiandun's announcement was only training and not stepping on the battlefield, Sun Zhen's mood was not much lighter, because the establishment he now belonged to was the third company of recruits mentioned by Qian Tiandun just now. Before this, Sun Zhen had already had an experience of wilderness survival training, but at that time, except for the instructor who led the team, all of them were recruits, and there were no tactical goal requirements, as long as everyone could complete the wilderness survival within the specified time, they would pass the test. And this time he will actually act with the veterans, Sun Zhen feels that this time may not be as easy as the last training.

After dinner, I returned to the dormitory, and sure enough, the company commander arrived soon. The company commander of the third company of recruits is surnamed Wu Mingqin, a naturalized officer of Annan origin, and also a subordinate of Qian Tiandun when he served in Annan in the past.

Wu Qin's coming to the dormitory is to make a supplementary explanation to what Qian Tiandun announced just now: "Tomorrow morning, the training will be suspended to sort out the housekeeping, this training needs to bring all personal equipment, the brothers should pack up as soon as possible, don't find out that you didn't bring that when you set off." In addition, this training is armed training, so ammunition for three combat bases will be distributed before departure. I would like to emphasize here that the results of this training may affect the future of the brothers, so everyone cheered me up, understand?"

The firearms currently used in the training of the recruit company are Type 28 front-loading flintlock pistols, each combat base is 50 rounds of ammunition, calculated at an average rate of one fire every two minutes, one base of ammunition is enough for a musket unit to fight a low-to-medium intensity battle. And three bases of ammunition are distributed at a time, which has never been seen in the past training of recruit companies. After all, the recruits are usually trained in shooting, and they only have 10 rounds of ammunition at a time. The amount of ammunition distributed alone made Sun Zhen already smell an unusual smell, if it was just wilderness survival training, how could he put on such a big posture.

Although Sun Zhen participated in the last wilderness survival training was also equipped with muskets, each person was only equipped with five rounds of ammunition, and it was stipulated in advance that no fire should be fired unless there were extremely special circumstances. During the whole training process, it is true that there was no time to use a musket. After all, the previous training site was arranged on Wang'an Island, south of Penghu Island, where there were neither fierce beasts nor potential enemies, and the purpose of carrying guns was more to keep the trainees in a simulated state of participating in battle, rather than self-defense or killing.

At noon the next day, after the 3rd Company of Recruits had completed their assembly in the barracks, they immediately rushed to Pier 7 to stand by. In addition to their personal weapons, the recruits also brought some baggage, such as thin blankets, instant dry food, drinking water, tents, military flags, military horns, and so on. Although Sun Zhen is a new recruit, he can also feel that this training is a little unusual, if it is a simple wilderness survival training, he doesn't need to bring so many things out. It's not so much survival in the wild, but more like an armed training in peacetime.

Soon another company of veterans also came to the dock to stand by. The First Company of the Special Operations Battalion was a unit personally formed by Qian Tiandun in Annan, and it was also the prototype and template of the Annan Special Operations Force. This company is almost equivalent to Qian Tiandun's personal guard troops, and it is also the elite of the Annan militia. At present, all the officers at or above the platoon level in this special operations battalion led by Qian Tiandun are basically from this company.

And the personal equipment of this company is undoubtedly extremely outstanding among the Haihan militia. The main weapon of the individual is the large-caliber version of the 30-type rear-loading flintlock pistol, the barrel is about a quarter shorter than the model installed by the militia army, but the caliber is nearly one-third larger, and the lethality is stronger at close range. The secondary weapon is the Type 31 flintlock pistol, although it is a single shot, but it can still play a life-saving role at critical times.

It is worth mentioning that the Type 31 flintlock pistol is an imitation of the original historical 836 flintlock pistol, which was produced in Massachusetts, North America from 1836 to 1844, and was also the last military flintlock pistol in the United States. The pistol fires fairly well at 10 meters, and the reload rate is relatively fast, with skilled gunners being able to reload three to four times per minute, and even surpassing rifles in close-range engagement environments.

After Haihan Ordnance produced this pistol in small batches, it was handed over to Qian Tiandun's special operations battalion for trial. Later, a small-caliber police version with a shorter barrel was developed for use in the police force of the Ministry of Justice. In the entire Haihan militia group, only some companies under Qian Tiandun's command were equipped with this kind of flintlock pistol on a large scale, and in other units, at least the platoon commander was qualified to be equipped with such weapons.

In addition, the soldiers' tactical daggers, personal backpacks, and short leather boots are all unified standard equipment, which makes the recruits so greedy. Of course, the most enviable thing for the recruits is the conspicuous armbands on the uniforms of these veterans. Although the uniforms of the recruits and veterans are the same, the "Special Company" armband with red letters on a black background illustrates the unusual identity of this team.

Sun Zhen looked at the weapon in the veteran's hand, and then looked at the burning stick in his hand, not only feeling a little at the gap between the two sides. However, he also knew that this gap was only existing at this stage, and if he could follow the training of new recruits, he would also have a certain chance to become one of these majestic veterans.

The two "Exploratory" sailing ships had already set up their gangplanks, but neither company had yet received the order to board the ships. After nearly 300 people stood on the dock for about a stick of incense, Qian Tiandun, dressed in military uniform, finally appeared on the pier. At the same time, he also brought a slightly unexpected news to the soldiers present, that is, the training will be personally led and directed by him. However, Qian Tiandun still did not mention the destination of this training.

The two companies quickly boarded two sailing boats, untied their cables and hoisted their sails, and after leaving Magong Port, they crossed the waterway between Penghu Island and Baisha Island and turned northeast. This course also made the soldiers on the ship a little confused, because the northernmost Jibei Island of the Penghu Islands is directly north of Penghu, and the distance is only about ten nautical miles, and the outline of Jibei Island can be seen on Baisha Island, which obviously does not match the current direction of travel.

After another two hours of sailing, the officer finally informed the soldiers on board that this time the place they were going was somewhere on the west coast of Dayuan Island. Of course, according to the standard Haihan place name, this place should be called Taiwan Island.

The following will be re-edited later
