Chapter 65 Live Fire
At 4:30 p.m., the team held a meeting.
Director Xu of the Political Department announced the decision to adjust the positions of Zhang Yuhang and others on behalf of the branch party committee.
The branch has already held a meeting of middle-level cadres. In fact, everyone knows who will be promoted, who will be transferred, and who will remain unchanged.
But I still find it a bit incredible to hear with my own ears that Zhang Yuhang, who had the least hope of succeeding Li Da, actually became the deputy captain.
As for Liu Haipeng's promotion from instructor to squadron leader, Lan Doudou's promotion from deputy squadron leader to instructor, and Han Xin's promotion to deputy squadron leader just a few days after arriving, the big guys weren't surprised.
After all, the situation of the Fourth Squadron is different from that of other squadrons. All the leaders are the "normal". In the words of the superiors, there is no position that is not conducive to the work.
It is worth mentioning that not many people were actually promoted during this adjustment, but the magnitude of the adjustment was not small.
For example, an instructor becomes a squadron leader, or someone is transferred from a township to an urban area. Just like playing chess, I moved all the chess pieces and basically considered everything that should be considered. It is not easy for the leaders of the game to mobilize the enthusiasm of the comrades.
People were so happy that they celebrated just by moving. As the "big winner" of this adjustment, the Fourth Squadron had to celebrate even more.
The four people were promoted collectively and their families treated them to a treat.
Lan Doudou's husband Yu Wenqiang booked the private room, Liu Haipeng's lover Sister Ding brought the drinks, but Han Xin still only had to drink.
Because we had something to do the next day, we didn’t drink much, ate very little food, and just chatted.
After chatting, I realized that there was a reason why the bureau appointed Zhang Yuhang as the deputy captain.
Linghai Branch does not have an anti-drug brigade like other district and county public security bureaus. It was originally hoped that Li Da, who had just retreated to the second line, could play a role. However, it turned out that Li Da did not like to appear in public and was not very good at anti-drug work.
Xiao Zhi is also the deputy director of the Municipal Anti-Narcotics Committee, and Secretary Huang of the Political and Legal Committee is also the director of the District Anti-Narcotics Committee. Of course, they must consider how to carry out anti-drug work. They have proposed to the branch more than once that since there are difficulties in establishing an anti-drug brigade, they should promote someone who can take the lead. Comrade Li Chongzheng succeeded Li Chongzheng as deputy captain of the criminal police.
As the "Shadow Narcotics Control Office Director" of Linghai District, Zhang Yuhang's abilities are obvious to all. Coupled with the detection of the 2.12 case and the convening of the city's special anti-drug action summary conference during the Spring Festival in Linghai, everything became logical.
Considering that the next three squadrons will be in charge of technology, intelligence and anti-narcotics, Zhang Yuhang suggested that Liu Haipeng adjust the division of labor within the squadron.
Liu Haipeng is responsible for the management of precursor chemicals, Lan Doudou is responsible for publicity and education and drug abstinence and drug control, and Han Xin is still responsible for the investigation of drug cases.
Lan Doudou would definitely be too busy to be responsible for so many things on his own, and it would be unrealistic to ask for police from the branch. After discussing it all night, they unanimously decided to transfer Xiao Cao, the commentator of the anti-drug science education center, back to help organize the accounts, Lan Doudou is specially responsible for writing manuscripts and the like.
…
We still have to do the same jobs as before, we still don’t have a single soldier under our command, and our wages don’t get a penny increase.
But after being able to transform from an ordinary policeman to a deputy squadron leader at the deputy squadron level, people would have to call him "Team Han" when going out. Not only was Han Xin very happy, but she also fell in love with the warm little family of the Fourth Squadron.
Early the next morning, we gathered in the branch courtyard on time.
We took a car arranged by the Political Department and rushed to the Municipal Bureau Police Officer Training Center in Binjiang Development Zone.
Study in the morning and listen to the city bureau's police combat instructor's lectures on the use of firearms, including the structural principles of the currently distributed Type 64 pistol and Type 05 revolver, as well as shooting essentials such as reloading, aiming, precautions, and firing timing.
Inspect the gun, reload, load, shoot, unload, inspect the gun again...
Han Xin was about to doze off as she listened, thinking to herself, do I need to learn these things?
I originally thought that shooting in the afternoon would be interesting, but when the whole team arrived at the shooting range, I almost laughed. The scene was actually divided into several areas. It was clearly explained where to stand and what to do when.
The commander, safety officer, starter, scorekeeper, bomb launcher...the division of labor is clear and each performs its own duties. In order to ensure that the live ammunition assessment shooting is flawless, it is as if you are facing a powerful enemy!
But looking back at the dozens of police beauties from our brothers’ police stations, I felt that it was very necessary.
Just as he was peeking at the young ladies with great interest, a first-level police inspector accompanied a third-level police inspector on crutches to the shooting range.
The third-level police officer took a look and asked with a sullen face: "Start one by one and ask them to go over and pick up the gun from the table, aim at the target and pull the trigger a few times to shoot out the bullet, then put the gun on the table and come back. Is it called close to actual combat?"
"Cheng Zhi, half of the newcomers participating in the training this time were admitted from local colleges and universities. They have never touched a gun before."
"I won't talk anymore. You have your own difficulties too. Safety comes first."
"Cheng Zhi, I know you want to be as close to actual combat as possible, but it is not easy for us to be organized as we are now. At least we can bring new comrades to shoot outdoors, unlike others in underground shooting ranges, one person in one cubicle."
Just as he was talking, the crisp sound of gunfire rang out.
The ten newcomers in the first group strictly followed the regulations and started firing live ammunition under the command of the starter. The safety officer stood behind them and stood ready, and everything was carried out in accordance with the procedures.
The voice of the target reporter came from the walkie-talkie. A policeman from the Xingdong Public Security Bureau did a good job. In the first round of shooting, the five bullets actually hit a good score of 46 rings.
Cheng Zhi looked at it for a while, then turned around and said, "Director Tian, I'm going back first, you are busy with your business."
"Cheng Zhi, let me see you off."
"Don't give it away, otherwise if I think of something, I will cause you trouble again."
"What are you talking about? Don't talk to us about your opinions. Even the bureau leaders take it seriously! For example, it makes perfect sense to have new police officers come to the city bureau police officer center for training instead of going to the police academy like our brother city bureaus. Many new police officers graduated from the police academy and have to go back to school a few days after being admitted to work. They have no sense of freshness and affect their enthusiasm for work."
"That makes a lot of sense."
"Cheng Zhi, don't get me wrong, your opinions are very reasonable."
Director Tian had just helped him to the car when he suddenly heard the commander's scolding voice coming from the intercom: "The third one on the left, what did I tell you this morning, what I told you just now, put your gun down quickly, do you hear me? "
Cheng Zhi turned around and asked, "What's going on?"
Director Tian was shocked and hurriedly raised the walkie-talkie: "Commander, commander, report the situation!"
The commander took a look at the list of assessors and reported: "Report to Director Tian, Linghai branch police officer Han Xin did not comply with safety regulations. I have ordered the security officer to take him away from the shooting area."
Cheng Zhi took the walkie-talkie: "Why don't you comply?"
"After he checked and loaded the gun, he fired five bullets in one breath without taking aim seriously. After shooting, not only did he not check the gun, he even still held the gun."
"Bring him here and continue to organize other new policemen to shoot."
"yes!"
Han Xin had never expected to be in such a "limelight", so she was brought to the two leaders by the security officer in confusion.
Director Tian was very angry. When he saw him, he immediately asked, "Tell me, what's going on? Did you not study hard this morning?"
"Report to the leader, I studied hard."
"Since you have studied hard, why don't you obey orders and obey orders?"
"Report to the leader, I forgot about it as soon as I picked up the gun. Maybe it's a habit."
"Habit?"
Han Xin said with a bitter face: "Yes."
I have never encountered anything like this before, and I have never seen such a newcomer before. The more Cheng Zhi thought about it, the more strange he became. He held his crutch and asked: "Have you ever touched a gun before?"
"Touched."
"Where did you touch it?"
"Reporting to the leader, I used to be a border armed police officer. I was just transferred back from Nanyun."
"So he was a soldier."
"yes."
"Is this how your army teaches you to shoot?"
Han Xin really didn’t know how to explain it and said hesitantly: "Reporting to the leader, this is not how we teach recruits during training, and this is not what we teach in daily training in our brother units. We... our old unit is in a special situation. Just our old unit. Teach like this.”
Cheng Zhi stared at him closely and asked, "Why is it so special?"
Han Xin thought to herself, so what if you were a third-level police superintendent? No matter how senior you are, I can't answer this question truthfully. And then I thought that it would be inappropriate to tell such a senior leader to abide by the confidentiality regulations, so she simply admitted her mistake: "Report to the leader, I was wrong. Please give me another chance, I promise to obey orders and obey orders."
A good shooting test was almost messed up by him. Fortunately, there was no safety accident. Director Tian was angry and asked coldly: "Comrade Han Xin, what is your attitude? Do you know who you are talking to?"
"Report to the leader, I don't know."
"I didn't know I could tell you..."
"What are you telling me?"
Cheng Zhi was most annoyed by the over-the-top introductions made by others. He pointed at Han Xin and said, "After the other groups have finished their assessment, I will arrange a live-fire shooting for you alone. Just follow the instructions taught by your army."
Han Xin said with a sad face: "Leader, I was wrong."
"You can fight however you want. Where did you get all this nonsense and you're still a soldier!"
"yes!"
…
There was such a big commotion, not to mention the embarrassment of the Linghai branch police officers who came together to participate in the live-fire assessment. They stood in the safe area talking to each other, whispering, and looking this way from time to time.
Han Xin was even more embarrassed than them, and kept cursing herself secretly for not remembering better.
Fortunately, not many police officers participated in the assessment this time. They waited patiently for more than 40 minutes like the children who had made mistakes, and the assessment for the remaining groups was completed.
Director Cheng Zhi and Tian took him to the shooting area, signaled the shooter to fire, and then pointed to the pistol on the table: "Let's start."
"yes!"
Han Xin quickly checked the gun, loaded the gun quickly, pointed the gun at the target and pulled the trigger. Regardless of whether it hit the target or not, she used the table as a cover and subconsciously squatted down to unload the magazine.
I habitually touched my pocket and found that I had neither a spare magazine nor bullets. I could only stand up angrily, check the gun again as the instructor asked, and then carefully put the gun on the table.
Director Tian was confused. Thinking of so many people taking the assessment waiting, he raised his walkie-talkie and said, "Report the target."
After waiting for about a minute, the target reporter ran down the aisle: "Report to Cheng Zhi, report to Director Tian, thirty-six rings!"
Not to mention how depressed Director Tian was, he said unhappily: "I know."
Cheng Zhi smiled and said: "Comrade Han Xin, you fought well. Come back to the team."
Finally meeting someone who was "knowledgeable", Han Xin finally breathed a sigh of relief, quickly stood up and saluted, turned around and ran towards her group.
Director Tian signaled his subordinates to pack up their guns, ammunition and shell casings and prepare to evacuate. He helped Cheng Zhi walk back and whispered: "Cheng Zhi, that kid has only received thirty-six rings, and he can only barely pass."
"Barely passed?"
"Is not it."
"Director Tian, did you not pay attention to how he aimed?"
"Look carefully, he didn't even take a serious look."
Cheng Zhi stopped, looked at him with a smile and asked: "Close your left eye and open your right eye. The gap should be aligned with the crosshair, the crosshair should be aligned with the target, and the three points are aligned. Is this serious aiming?"
Director Tian was confused: "Cheng Zhi, can you be more specific? I don't quite understand."
Cheng Zhi looked at the large army being led away and said with a smile: "He took aim, he aimed with both eyes. He found the target and shot decisively. After shooting the bullet, he quickly found cover, loaded the ammunition in time, and prepared to fight back."
"Cheng Zhi, I really didn't notice that he was aiming with both eyes."
"The reaction is quick and the action is quick. If there is a gunfight, if he had a few spare magazines on him, he might have knocked down all those people just now."
"Is it that exaggerated?"
"You can aim slowly in training, but there is no time for them to aim when encountering a gun battle. Even though some of them have achieved good results of more than 40 rings, in actual combat, what is needed is directional shooting, especially when encountering close-range moving targets. At that time, the hit rate was extremely low.”
Director Tian was shocked: "So that kid is a talent!"
Cheng Zhi nodded, thought about it and sighed: "It's a pity that people like him have no use in our Binjiang."
"The SWAT detachment needs such talents."
"What the SWAT detachment needs is accurate shooting. He will be useless if he goes like this."
Director Tian reacted: "Cheng Zhi, are you saying he just reacts quickly?"
Cheng Zhi pondered: "Not only does he react quickly, he should have actual combat experience and have experienced a hail of bullets. If you encounter a particularly dangerous suspect with a gun, you can go to him, but can we encounter him in Binjiang?"
"According to what you say, that kid is really useless."
"So it's a pity."
