Chapter 107 Daily Life Is the Most Disgusting
"This batch of new guns is quite a lot. It should be enough to equip every soldier on your island with one." Seeing how excited he was, Zhang Wei happily told him the good news.
The military district is well aware of the number of soldiers on the island, and the weapons sent over are based on that number.
"Okay, okay, no problem! This gun looks good. Is it really as powerful as the legend says?" Li Hongguang didn't care about those things. His mind was completely on the new gun at the moment.
Seeing that he really wanted to try the gun, Zhang Wei could understand.
After all, when he saw a new gun, he also wanted to try it out.
"Of course, why don't we try it first?" Zhang Wei winked at him.
Li Hongguang touched the gun and was indeed tempted by Zhang Wei's suggestion, but now that Huo Ci was leading a team here, he couldn't just leave them here and go and try out the gun himself.
"Uh..." But he didn't respond at this time, nor did he directly refuse. If you look closely, you can even see the struggle in his eyes.
"It won't take long to test a gun. We'll unload the weapons and supplies first. You go quickly." Zhang Wei said generously.
Li Hongguang came to greet them, of course not alone, he brought other soldiers with him. At this moment, they were all helping to unload the goods, so it would not be a big deal for him to try out the gun.
But he was obviously not the one who could make the decision on this matter.
Li Hongguang turned his gaze to Huo Ci, who had been silent, waiting to see his reaction.
"Okay, go ahead." Receiving his gaze, Huo Ci actually nodded and agreed, "We should try out the new gun first, in case it gets stuck when we use it officially."
Huo Ci naturally took this into consideration. After all, the soldiers on the Xisha Islands were far away from the islands, and supplies, weapons and equipment were delayed.
The mission will be used soon, and Huo Ci doesn't want anything unexpected to happen to Li Hongguang and the others.
"Thank you, Mr. Huo!" Li Hongguang was very surprised.
Without any hesitation, he ran with the gun in his arms, already impatient to test it out.
"Captain Huo, you seem to be more humane now!" After Li Hongguang left, Zhang Wei leaned in front of Huo Ci and whispered.
"He has been stationed there for many years, it's not easy." Huo Ci said.
It is indeed not easy for Li Hongguang. Although any new weapons will be sent to the island as soon as possible, there is still a gap in time. It is no wonder that he would have such a reaction.
Not to mention the scarce supplies in the Paracel Islands, the soldiers' lives were not good.
This time they brought half a shipload of supplies, all of which were for supplies here.
"That's right!" Zhang Wei led his men and moved together with the soldiers here, and it took quite a while.
When everything was done and the two were taken to Li Hongguang's tent, he had already returned after testing the gun.
"Hey, Tuan Huo, this new gun really lives up to my expectations. With it, getting rid of those little guys will be no problem!" Li Hongguang was very happy and full of confidence.
Having more powerful weapons is undoubtedly one of the ways to boost confidence.
"That's right. It was developed not long ago and has strong lethality. If we fight them, we will definitely make them have no chance of returning!" Zhang Wei responded.
You know what, they both get along quite well!
"As you know, this place is made up of many islands. The enemy soldiers who landed on the islands have now hidden themselves. I have sent people to search, but there are no results yet." Li Hongguang returned to his business after a while.
He was just too excited just now, but he is not a person who does not know the seriousness of the matter.
"The little guy is insidious. Soldiers who go to search should be careful and don't fall into ambushes." Huo Ci reminded.
"Yes, the conflict between us and Xiao Rizi has been going on for a long time. We know very well what kind of people they are. Every team member carries a flare, and once there is a situation, it will be fired immediately. Don't worry!" Li Hongguang nodded slightly.
If they were to face any other enemy, they wouldn't necessarily act like this, but Xiao Ri is well-known for his insidiousness and disgusting nature!
"You are all familiar with the terrain on the nearby islands. You should know which places are more suitable for Tibetans." Huo Ci said after a moment of silence.
Li Hongguang has been stationed in the Xisha Islands for five years. Logically, he should have been familiar with the terrain of the islands.
"Yes!" He nodded and took out the map he had prepared in advance and gave it to Huo Ci: "It has signs on all the places suitable for hiding, but we don't have enough manpower at the moment, so we have only searched one-third of the area, so progress is slow."
Li Hongguang marked all the places he had searched on the map.
Although this is just an island in the sea, its area is indeed not small, and it is mostly dense jungle, just like a primeval forest. It is very easy to hide in it.
Even if the soldiers here have already understood the terrain, it is still difficult to find people in the vast jungle.
"Okay, we will support you later." Huo Ci wrote down the topographic map in his hand.
"The residents of several surrounding islands have also been protected to prevent them from becoming hostages of the enemy. Those people are not good at living like human beings and are best at doing these disgusting things." Li Hongguang added.
After the enemy landed on the island, he reacted quickly and arranged everything as quickly as possible.
Huo Ci nodded and appreciated the precautions taken by Li Hongguang. This way, he would have fewer worries.
However, he had to protect the residents, defend the fortress, patrol the sea, garrison the base on the main island, and add the search, so it was no wonder that he did not have enough men under his command.
"You have worked hard these days. Let them have a good rest today." Huo Ci made a quick decision and instructed Zhang Wei, "Have the soldiers take over the night guard after dinner."
"Yes!" Zhang Wei responded and immediately walked out of the tent.
……
The main island is just a temporary base with some simple tents. They usually spend most of their time at sea and only come to the main island to rest occasionally.
Huo Ci and Li Hongguang stayed in the tent until dinner was served before going out. Huo Ci was already very clear about the situation in the Xisha Islands and had already made certain arrangements in his mind.
The soldiers in the barracks cooked a big pot of food in the evening with the supplies delivered to them, and the dishes were quite rich.
But looking at those soldiers eating with hearty appetite, it seems that they don’t usually eat so well.
Supplies are limited on the islands, not to mention the Xisha Islands, where conditions are even more difficult.
Huo Ci looked at everyone enjoying the meal and remembered to take out the meat patties that Jiang Yushan had made in the morning and asked the soldiers to heat them up and share them with them.
Although Jiang Yushan made a lot, there were many soldiers on the side, so each person only got a quarter of a piece, but everyone was very satisfied.
"Wow~ Is this cake also part of the supplies this time? It's so delicious. Do you have any more?" The soldiers on the Xisha side had never eaten such delicious cakes, and they all wanted to get some more.
