Chapter 21: Captain Zeng
The “Xian Ning” warship, which had just been maintained not long ago,
The evening drill activities generally involve practicing light signals, operating searchlights, and even evening naval guns firing, though such cannonballs training is generally not frequent,
Because they do not want to waste cannonballs and money.
As for the Navy soldiers’ morning training, there are many kinds of training,
For example, sometimes the Navy soldiers’ morning training involves practicing sampans, practicing throwing life buoys, and washing clothes, etc.,
But sometimes, it involves practicing signal flags, rowing sampans, running training, and cleaning the warship, or practicing firefighting,
As for the afternoon, there are also similarly numerous training items, and they often include pistol, rifle, and machine gun shooting training, including live ammunition cannon firing training, as well as Tai Chi training, and various military equipment training,
As well as singing military songs, and going out to sea for naval battle live-fire exercises,
After Leader Yang agreed to Zhou Wenhua’s request to dispatch two elite Navy soldiers to assist in training the Security Team,
He instructed his adjutant Wu Dahua to immediately go to the “Xian Ning” warship to find people.
It did not take long,
Adjutant Wu Dahua drove the military vehicle and arrived at the “Xian Ning” warship, which was moored in the port area,
At this time, the Navy soldiers on the warship were also conducting afternoon military training projects.
Many Navy soldiers were training in pistol shooting.
The “Xian Ning” warship, the Navy Department’s first new-style warship,
So military training has never been interrupted, and it is extremely strict.
And Captain Zeng Guanying, as the captain, was personally supervising the training, not allowing the Navy soldiers to slack off.
“Eh? Wu Hua!”
“Why are you here? Aren’t you supposed to be handling affairs by Leader’s side?”
“Is it that Leader has some urgent matter and sent you to instruct me?”
While fully focused on supervising the Navy soldiers on the “Xian Ning” warship conducting pistol shooting training,
Captain Zeng suddenly surprisedly discovered that Officer Yang’s adjutant Wu Dahua was running towards him.
So he also nervously inquired.
“Mm! Yes!”
“Officer Yang asked me to request two soldiers from you with good marksmanship and excellent combat skills, to go to Zhou Family there to assist in training a newly recruited Security Team!”
“There is a monetary reward, and the training time is about two to three months!”
Adjutant Wu Dahua said straightforwardly.
“What? Requesting people from me to go to Zhou Family to help them train a Security Team?”
“That Zhou Family? They actually have such face?”
Upon hearing such an unexpected reply,
Captain Zeng was slightly stunned, then surprisedly asked back.
“It’s the Zhou Family of Zhou Wenhua, the one who donated to our Navy to purchase an aircraft carrier and a minesweeper!”
“They are also relatives of Elder Mr. Zhou Jixian!”
Adjutant Wu Dahua smiled and responded.
“Hahaha! So it’s Zhou Wenhua of that Zhou Family! I was wondering which Zhou Family it was!”
“Alright! I’ll immediately dispatch two people with the best marksmanship and fighting ability to you!”
“Not to mention just two people from me; if he wants a team, I’d agree without hesitation. Donating so much money to our Navy for development is exactly what we’ve been hoping for!”
“I hope that in the future, he can continue to generously donate money to our Navy’s major development!”
“A weak nation will be bullied!”
“Our Navy is also deeply weakened; taking advantage of the current domestic peacetime, we should quickly develop our Navy’s strength,
“Accelerate the development of Navy strength to resist foreign enemies; these are all things I hope to see!”
After hearing this, Captain Zeng suddenly understood, laughed heartily, and then said with a heavy heart.
“Mm! Yes!”
“So our Navy’s development must be accelerated, and thus we need even more donations from patriots like Zhou Wenhua!”
Adjutant Wu Dahua also nodded lightly and agreed.
He was also full of expectations for the current Navy’s development.
Immediately after, Captain Zeng personally named and found two Navy soldiers with the best marksmanship and martial arts skills, handed them over to Adjutant Wu Dahua, and let him take them to Zhou Wenhua’s home to serve as training instructors.
Adjutant Wu Dahua also nodded in thanks, then without hesitation took these two Navy soldiers onto the military vehicle he had driven, and quickly left.
