Chapter 200: Reunion and Acquaintances
Looking at his comrades who were all shocked, Lin Zheng couldn't help but curl his lips.
"You ask me, who should I ask?
Isn't the pillar right there now? Why don't we go over and ask him?"
"Yes, yes, yes, go ask, go ask,
This is too outrageous. I have fought in wars all my life, and if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes today, I would definitely not believe it if someone else told me.”
When He Yuzhu heard their questions,
I couldn't help but roll my eyes in my heart.
If he could speak it out loud, he really wanted to ask Lin Zheng and his friends whether they knew the gold content of the four life-saving coins and more than 4 taels of gold.
How much material can this much gold buy? Can't this even feed a super gunner?
Then he stretched out his finger and gestured, then pretended to be very puzzled and said,
“That’s how we compare!
That's what the company commander taught me just now, and I hit it after two attempts.
As for the ballistic calculations and other miscellaneous things you mentioned, I don’t understand what they are even from what I have learned myself! "
Although psychologically speaking,
Lin Zheng and his friends did not believe what He Yuzhu said.
But they had just seen He Yuzhu's operation, and they also knew that he had not received much education. The facts before them forced them to believe what He Yuzhu said.
All of a sudden, everyone was in a dilemma.
However, He Yuzhu was in no mood to comfort them, and continued to destroy the bunkers and firing points on the opposite mountain one by one.
As the various firing points were cleared, a large number of people were killed and wounded.
The morale of the spies and bandits collapsed.
The public security fighters quickly captured the top of the mountain and captured a large number of surrendered bandits and spies.
As the battle drew to a close, the soldiers spontaneously began to clean up the battlefield, clear their equipment, bury the bodies, and treat the wounded.
Lin Zheng and the others also calmed down.
Return to the headquarters to begin arranging the next tasks.
Miao Xuegang also led the artillery company to organize the equipment, collecting all kinds of shells and shell casings into different categories, preparing to take them back and return them.
He Yuzhu originally wanted to lend a hand,
But the people in the artillery company treated him like a treasure and would not let him move at all.
"Alright, alright, Zhuzi, our artillery company has lost face in front of our comrades this time. You are a precious treasure now.
Just listen to your comrades and take a good rest first.
I will commend you for your contribution when I return."
Seeing that his comrades were in an attitude of "I will get angry if you move again", He Yuzhu didn't know what to say and could only stay aside doing nothing.
Soon, the comrades cleaned up the battlefield, and the spies and bandits carrying the prisoners began to march down the mountain.
The soldiers of the artillery company also dismantled the mortar into parts.
Put it on the horse and join the main force.
When He Yuzhu and his men led their horses to meet up with everyone, the soldiers all greeted them enthusiastically.
The company and platoon leaders even asked Miao Xuegang, the artillery company commander, for details.
"Sure, Lao Miao,
Your extraordinary performance this time really shocked us.
I thought I would have to stay in the mountains for four or five days at most, until the bandits ran out of ammunition, before I could leave.
I didn't expect that you could destroy all the bunkers and firing points with one shot, and scare these bandits so much.
Even morale was directly destroyed."
"That's it, Lao Miao. With your extraordinary performance today, the higher-ups will definitely give you a third-class merit or something.
Don’t forget to treat us to a drink when the time comes!”
……
Watching several company and platoon leaders making fun of themselves,
Miao Xuegang didn't think it was a big deal at all, and nodded with a smile.
"Although it was Zhuzi who fired the cannons to destroy those firing points today, I was the one who taught them, so the leaders above should reward me.
I will treat you to a good meal and plenty of wine."
When they heard Miao Xuegang say that it was He Yuzhu who fired the artillery to destroy those firing points, several company and platoon leaders looked at He Yuzhu who was leading the horse in surprise and praised him one after another.
"Zhu Zi, when Director Lin and the others told us just now, we didn't believe it. I didn't expect that it was you who really destroyed those firing points.
Tell your brother if you have learned it before.
You are such an accurate shooter, you are a real gunner."
"Yes, I originally thought that we had to use up all their weapons and ammunition.
I thought that your cannon was like a pair of eyes. You fired a dozen rounds and defeated the bandits. This allowed us to complete the mission ahead of schedule and avoid freezing in the mountains.
It saved us so much trouble!"
I heard from several company leaders.
He Yuzhu then realized that when they came here just now, they had already learned from Lin Zheng and others that it was He Yuzhu who fired the cannon so accurately just now.
He just didn't want to believe it, so he came over to tease Miao Xuegang and find out what was going on.
He Yuzhu only believed it after they confirmed it again and again.
I think there is nothing wrong with lowering your posture.
So he touched his head sincerely, and then smiled honestly.
"I've never touched a gun before.
I learned it from our company commander. I fought the way he taught me to fight, and the rest was just based on my feelings.
I don’t know what happened, I just thought I could hit it, and then I did.”
He Yuzhu's words were not only directed at the platoon leaders, but even Miao Xuegang, the artillery company commander, was speechless.
It feels like he's just showing off, but there's no evidence.
They just froze for a moment, and then said in unison,
"Zhu Zi, you have made such a great contribution, you will definitely be rewarded by the higher-ups, let's have a couple of drinks tonight!"
No matter what year it is, even in this era of material scarcity, after going through the test of blood and fire, soldiers are not only thick-skinned, but also have a very good alcohol tolerance.
He Yuzhu didn't dare to drink with them, otherwise he would be knocked down in minutes.
So I quickly shook my head and refused.
"No, with your alcohol tolerance, I dare not drink with you, otherwise I will definitely drink under the table.
I have to drive back to Beijing tomorrow, and you don’t want me to drive the car into a ditch, do you? "
Although some platoon leaders said that drinking and driving is not a big deal,
I have also heard that when they were marching and fighting in the past, some people were drinking while transporting supplies to the front line steadily.
But some people think that since He Yuzhu is going to drive, he should be more cautious.
If the car really gets into a ditch, it will be troublesome.
Then I dissuaded him.
A few people were chatting on the side of the road when they suddenly heard a soldier next to them yelling,
"What are you looking at!
Hurry up and leave, or I’ll beat the shit out of you.”
The company and platoon leaders didn't feel anything, but He Yuzhu, who heard this for the first time, subconsciously looked up.
Then he looked at the prisoner with a smile and said,
"Hey! Isn't this Brother Wang Younian? Why are you here alone?
Where's that bastard One-Eyed Dragon?"
