Siheyuan: Bringing Warehouses to 1959

Zeng Wangcai couldn't answer, so Liu Youren said earnestly: "Platoon Leader Zeng, the commander asked you to earn supplies for the military region, not to consume supplies. I just said it, don't really eat the piglets..."

Facing Liu Youren's nagging, Zeng Wangcai seemed to see the people who helped the poor in the future, earnestly persuading the poor households not to eat the seeds, not to eat the piglets...

"You're joking, I'm not joking!" Zeng Wangcai said with a smile, "But don't worry, wild boar, we killed wild boar. Comrades have been working hard to open up the wasteland recently. If you don't eat well, you won't have the energy to work. This is not all prepared for you."

What he said was half true and half false. The true part was that the soldiers ate well, and the false part was that the wild boar was really prepared for Liu Youren, and it also allowed the soldiers to have some meat instead of always eating fish.

"That's good, that's good..." Liu Youren felt relieved and got in the car and followed.

There is still less than half a month left before the first platoon is due to deliver the supplies. To be honest, Liu Youren is really worried that Zeng Wangcai will not be able to complete the task, which will bring shame to the entire logistics department of the 70th Division.

Now that he heard that a wild boar had been killed, he thought that Zeng Wangcai and his team had made good progress in completing their mission, otherwise they would not have had the heart to eat and drink.

It was dark, there was snow, and the road was difficult to drive on, so the two cars were driving one after the other, swaying back and forth. When they were almost at the camp, Liu Youren's car accidentally got stuck and the wheels slipped and couldn't get out.

Zeng Wangcai and Xiao Bao stopped the car and came over to help push the cart. They were sweating all over, but they couldn't push the cart out.

"Get something to cushion it!" Liu Youren's forehead was sweating from being pushed.

"Forget it, we're not far from the camp here, I'll call for help!" Zeng Wangcai said as he took the gun from the car and fired three shots into the sky. The interval between the first shot and the next two shots was a little longer.

After firing the gun, Zeng Wangcai explained: "This is a communication signal. There is one more thing I want to talk about. Minister Liu, can you give us more bullets next time? We use them up too quickly during training."

"Training consumes too much energy? Do you still have time to conduct live-fire training?" Liu Youren asked in surprise.

"Of course. Our platoon has the same military training. We shoot at live targets, but the results are not very good. It will be fine once our accuracy improves." Zeng Wangcai explained with a chuckle.

It’s a headache. I didn’t notice it at first. The soldiers were very passionate about shooting. Every time they went out hunting, they were so happy.

If you find a wild boar, snap, snap; if you find a pheasant, snap, snap; if you find a badger, snap, snap...

Every day in the forest of West Mountain is like a war. Fortunately, Zeng Wangcai had foresight and this side is deserted, so there is no need to worry about anything happening.

It is said that sharpshooters are fed with bullets. The shooting level of the whole platoon improved rapidly, but there is also a disadvantage, that is, the prey they shot was not good to look at.

Zeng Wangcai once found eight bullet holes on a pheasant. There was not a single piece of good meat left. That pheasant was unlucky for the rest of its life.

The bullets were consumed too quickly, so Zeng Wangcai had to order the soldiers to be more restrained, which resulted in less prey being caught.

"Haha, it seems you have indeed gained something!" Liu Youren waved his hand. "There is no problem with bullets. I will double them. It's good as long as we can kill prey. Our division is the ace division of the military region. No matter what, we are unwilling to lag behind. As long as we receive a mission, there is nothing we cannot complete. This time is no exception. Don't fall behind. If there are not enough bullets, I will have someone send them to you later. You don't have to wait until next month."

"That's great. Oh, and there are grenades. Give me ten or eight boxes!"

"Grenade? You use grenades to hunt?"

"No, it's better to be prepared..."

Zeng Wangcai experimentally released a wooden-handled grenade to test the lethality of its fragments. The result was not very good, as one grenade killed two fish.

That’s right, fried fish!

With less than half a month left, there was no other way to gather 10,000 kilograms of supplies except fish.

Although fishing at that time was not slow, it was troublesome and ostentatious. The lake would soon freeze over, and fishing would require a lot of effort to dig holes.

Bombing fish is different. Just pull the grenade and throw it into the lake, and it can also train the soldiers' throwing skills.

Zeng Wangcai begged and pleaded for some more grenades.

At this time, the squad leader of the second squad, Yu Tie, came over with the soldiers of the second squad. Someone helped push the truck, and soon they got it out of trouble.

"Oh, you also built a parking lot?" Liu Youren looked at the flat and open ground under his feet and nodded repeatedly, "It seems that you have indeed done a lot of things in the past half month."

Even the parking lot has been repaired, how could the rest be bad?

In fact, the so-called parking lot is a large piece of vacant land behind the Peninsula Camp, which was cleared and used as a car training ground.

Zeng Wangcai wants everyone to learn how to drive and train the soldiers to be all-rounders, and the driving training ground will also have other uses.

"Haha, you're too kind!" Zeng Wangcai laughed and said, "Let's go, the comrades are all waiting for supper."

When Liu Youren heard the word "midnight snack", he thought it was a dinner deliberately arranged by Zeng Wangcai and did not think much about it. But the actual situation was that as long as there was a lot of work that day, Zeng Wangcai would arrange midnight snacks for the soldiers at night.

The group came from the driving training ground at the back with flashlights and arrived at the camping area surrounded by a simple fence. At this time, several bonfires were burning in the open space in front of the tents.

The soldiers were still busy, some were cooking, some were weaving fishing nets by the firelight.

"Okay, everyone, put down your work!" Zeng Wangcai stood by a campfire and clapped his hands, "Everyone, stand up!"

Warriors, cheer up! Stand up!

Zeng Wangcai did not order a gathering, and continued, "Welcome Minister Liu from the Divisional Logistics Department to deliver supplies to us. Let's all cheer!"

clap clap clap!

The soldiers clapped their hands three times in perfect unison, not one more, not one less.

"Minister Liu, can you please say a few words to the soldiers?"

"No, don't do this so late at night. We can talk about it tomorrow." Liu Youren was itching to get his supplies back. He looked around and asked, "Where are your supplies? Take me to see them!"

"Minister Liu, it's not convenient after dark. The supplies are in Warehouse No. 1. Let's do it tomorrow. We'll see tomorrow!" Zeng Wangcai said with a smile.

"Oh, there are warehouses? Warehouse No. 1..." Liu Youren nodded, relieved, and then did not mention going to check the supplies anymore.

For dinner, we had cornmeal buns with bone soup, and the dish was large slices of meat sandwiched in the buns.

Liu Youren couldn't even enjoy this kind of eating style and this kind of food at the division headquarters.

Seeing that Zeng Wangcai and his men were so willing to eat, he once again conceded that Zeng Wangcai and his men had gained a lot of supplies.

Nothing happened that night. We gathered early the next morning for exercise.

Because of Liu Youren's arrival, Zeng Wangcai did not go to training and let Zheng Yilin lead the team to run five kilometers first.

"Platoon Leader Zeng, let's go check out the supplies first!" After washing up, Liu Youren said while breathing the cold air.

"Don't worry, let's cook and eat first. The warehouse is next door, we can go there after we finish eating."
