Chapter 68 Li Yimin, Yaogang Village
After receiving the supplies, Director Zheng left Shanghai via the Suzhou River that same evening.
Along with the drugs, penicillin and drones were also taken away.
Following the instructions of his superiors, he did not immediately return to Beijing to report on his work and the latest situation.
Instead, he took the supplies to the Anhui General Headquarters, which was preparing for the Yangtze River Crossing Campaign.
Although Beiping was very curious about drones, there were priorities.
With the crossing of the Yangtze River imminent, we must prioritize the current battle.
The delivery of penicillin, gauze, and iodine solution just solved the problem of insufficient medicines in the logistics department.
With these medicines, the lives of many wounded soldiers can be saved.
Moreover, drones, as a revolutionary technological product, are perfectly suited for testing their effectiveness on the battlefield.
If it's really that magical, it will greatly increase the chances of winning this battle.
Once they crossed the Yangtze River, they could march straight to Nanjing and completely destroy the Kuomintang reactionaries' stronghold.
Let this ancient city return to the embrace of the people!
After reporting to the leaders of the forward command post, Director Zheng received permission to immediately assemble a special team.
The base of operations has been set up in Yaogang Village, Feidong County, Anhui Province, which has already been selected. The command post will also be moved here later.
This location is safe and ideal for training this special team.
Soon, a conscription order was issued to the entire army.
All officers and soldiers with a secondary school education or above were selected.
After undergoing a rigorous political vetting process, they were sent to Yaogang Village.
Several military vehicles covered with tarpaulins drove along the road, their spinning wheels kicking up clouds of yellow dust.
In the cargo box behind, a dozen or so soldiers, around twenty years old and dressed in khaki military uniforms, sat in two rows.
The carriage was quiet; not a single person spoke.
Although everyone was curious, the superiors gave strict orders when they were selected.
You are not allowed to say or ask anything without permission!
The carriage was covered with a tarpaulin, so you couldn't see outside or know where you were going.
The vehicle bumped along the uneven road, and everyone kept their lips tightly closed, maintaining an upright posture.
This is the strict military discipline of the People's Liberation Army!
Finally, after a bumpy ride, we arrived at a temporary barracks built with wooden planks.
"Everyone get off the bus!"
At a command, the soldiers stepped out of the carriage one by one.
They all turned around curiously, looking around, wondering what kind of place they had come to.
I'm even more curious about what kind of mission it is that is so mysterious?
Li Yimin stood in the crowd, moving his hands and feet, which had gone numb from the jolting.
His position is instructor, and his educational background is college degree.
He was an active member of the Communist Party when he was a senior colonel, and he participated in student demonstrations against the Nationalist government on several occasions.
He was even arrested and imprisoned for six months for participating in a protest, and almost got expelled from school.
If his descendants want to take the civil service exam in the future, and the verification section shows that his grandfather had been imprisoned, I wonder if they will be disqualified?
While Li Yimin was moving his hands and feet, he was also observing the surrounding situation with his eyes.
He found the camp heavily guarded, with a soldier carrying a submachine gun standing guard every ten meters.
Moreover, soldiers were seen guarding the high part of the hillside, and a machine gun was even set up there!
A question arose in his mind: "With such tight security, what kind of place is this?"
Not only him, but the other selected soldiers also looked around curiously, their eyes filled with confusion.
Moreover, among the questioning voices, there were quite a few female voices.
I even saw two female warriors in white coats, who looked like nurses.
Clearly, this mission is not gender-specific; selection is based solely on educational background.
Li Yimin and the others were, after all, soldiers who had received rigorous training, and they quickly lined up in formation.
After being assigned to barracks, we had lunch.
Immediately following this was two hours of training on confidentiality and discipline, followed by a half-hour break.
One soldier asked curiously, "Instructor, what kind of training will we have next?"
Li Yimin smiled and corrected, "The instructor just said that from now on, everyone should put aside their past positions and jobs. We are all soldiers, and we should only address each other as comrades."
These are the words the instructor said to them when class had just started.
However, this is only temporary. After completing the course, adjustments will be made accordingly.
Those with good academic performance will be appointed as class monitor!
Here, you will be completely separated from your former unit and carry out a top-secret mission!
People gathered in small groups, curiously discussing what the next lesson would be.
Unfortunately, no matter how much they let their imaginations run wild, they could not have imagined the advanced technology that would overturn their understanding!
Half an hour later, as the whistle blew, nearly a hundred people returned in an orderly fashion to the temporary classroom built of wooden planks.
Some people sat on the ground, some sat on bricks, all holding notebooks and waiting for class to begin.
Soon, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man walked in.
Behind the middle-aged man was a soldier who placed a nice-looking cardboard box on a dilapidated wooden table.
Director Zheng glanced around and a warm smile appeared on his face.
"Everyone here is a top student selected from various military units, so I'll keep it brief."
Our military obtained some extremely advanced equipment through special channels.
Its level of advancement far surpasses that of the United States today!
And you are the talents selected from the army to learn and master this equipment!
Director Zheng paused briefly, waiting for the crowd below to process the information.
He was pressed for time; he had to teach everyone how to use drones today before setting off overnight to return to Beiping.
He rushed back to Beiping to report on his work, carrying ten drones, medicines, and stockings.
After the performance review, there wasn't even a day left; everyone had to rush back to Shanghai immediately.
Therefore, due to time constraints and heavy workload, the presentation was only briefly paused before continuing.
"Next, everyone must watch carefully and learn diligently, and be sure to memorize every step."
What I have on my desk is called a drone, which is a type of aircraft.
However, unlike the airplanes you are familiar with, it is called a drone because it does not require a human pilot.
As for how to do it, I will explain it to you later.
Now you will learn how to assemble it!
Unlike other teachers, Director Zheng did not create suspense or keep students in suspense during class.
His time is very tight, and he has no time to waste.
I picked up the small knife on the table and gently melted off the outer plastic protective film.
Then the box was opened, the drone and its accessories were taken out, and an introduction was given.
Following the steps Lin Wan taught him, he assembled the drone.
Everyone below craned their necks and stared intently at every step.
Li Yimin was sitting in the second row, so he could see more clearly than the others.
Even after assembly, he quickly jotted down important notes in his notebook.
Director Zheng answered everyone's questions carefully, then disassembled the assembled drone and reassembled it.
He began, "Now, I'm going to select two students to come up and practice."
