Chapter Thirty-Four: Gathering Disciples

  While Director Liang and Captain Pang were busy fending off the reporters' barrage of questions, Zhang Hang and his team had already comfortably bathed, enjoyed a hearty meal, visited their Flying Tiger comrades in the hospital, and then went out to take in the Hong Kong night view.

  Zhang Hang was still sitting in the hospital room, chatting with a Flying Tiger member named Qin Feng.

  Qin Feng is twenty-eight years old, one meter seven eight in height, neither fat nor thin, with a square face. In the Flying Tiger team, he is a sniper and has compared shooting skills with He Lian Guang, admiring their 100% accurate marksmanship. Seeing Zhang Hang shoot down a helicopter two thousand meters away with one shot, Qin Feng worships him extremely.

  To be honest, Zhang Hang somewhat liked this man full of righteousness. In the battle a few hours ago, he pushed away his comrade in time and was hit by Mo Yan's black gun on his arm. Zhang Hang saw it clearly from the side, before Mo Yan fired the second shot, he raised his hand and made a precise shot, sending him to report to King Yama.

  Only a man with such deep passion and strong character, who can put life and death aside, can bring his marksmanship to the highest level.

  Cheung Fung most admires this kind of good man who blocks bullets for his brothers. So, he intentionally guides him in shooting, and in the future, it will also increase the combat effectiveness of the Hong Kong Flying Tigers.

  "Qin Feng, is there anyone else at home?" Since seeing Zhang Hang and the others come in to see him, Qin Feng had been very surprised, and his emotions were still stirred up until now. Zhang Hang could only try to ease the atmosphere a bit, asking a rather silly question.

  "Oh, apart from parents, there's also a sister. But she's already married." Qin Feng's response was equally stupid.

  "It's great to have an older sister, it's a blessing. You don't have to lift a finger at home, and your parents treat you like a treasure. I can guarantee that your sister must be very envious of you." Since the topic had already been broached, he continued with more nonsense: "I didn't have such good fortune. As the only son in my family, I thought I could be a young emperor, but it turns out I'm not even as good as a small eunuch. I have to do all the household chores and ask for help with every difficult task. It's very tiring."

  Zhang Hang is indeed telling the truth, for his bright future, his family has been cultivating him exceptionally since he was a child.

  "Haha, you really did say it right, my sister has a big opinion of me. But she can't do anything about it either. However, my sister takes good care of me and I'm very good to her too. When there's delicious food, we share it together, I've never eaten alone before. It's really unexpected, but compared to you, I'm indeed much happier." Unbeknownst to him, Qin Feng's emotions had calmed down and he was no longer as awkward as when they first started talking.

  "By the way, Qin Feng, how did you join the police force?" Zhang Hang gradually shifted the topic.

  "When I was young, being a police officer was my dream. Actually, we used to live in the mainland, but later on, my dad offended a local tyrant who had some power there, so to avoid his harassment, we moved to Hong Kong through a relative. At that time, I made up my mind that when I grew up, I must become a police officer, eliminate violence and bring peace, uphold justice."

  "Oh, I didn't know there was such a small episode in here. Now your dream has come true, congratulations are in order. By the way, after so many years in the police force, how do you view your comrades? Or rather, apart from your own family, what position do your comrades hold in your heart?" Zhang Hang nodded, slowly guiding the conversation in that direction.

  "It's very simple, eight words: 'Life and death together, never abandon!' Qin Feng's expression was very serious: 'On the battlefield, they can also take bullets for each other and give their backs to each other, that's what comrades are.'"

  Zhang Hang's eyebrows moved, and he couldn't help but think that his understanding of his comrades was so thorough, not one bit less than his own.

  "I know your last shooting score in the Flying Tigers was one of the best, but after this battle, you should understand that if you encounter a master like an international mercenary on the battlefield, you will still be at a disadvantage. At that time, you may not be as lucky as you are now, and you might pay with your life. How about it? Do you want to improve your sniping skills?"

  The words had been said to this point, Qin Feng still couldn't hear the meaning in Zhang Hang's words. He immediately jumped up from the bed and excitedly knelt down in front of Zhang Hang: "Please accept me as your disciple, Master! I offer you a bow!" After saying that, he was about to kowtow.

  Qin Feng is in Hong Kong, but he still knows a thing or two about the traditional etiquette of masters and apprentices on the mainland. His bow has a bit of the flavor of a heroic figure from the rivers and lakes coming to pay respects to his master.

  Not bad, clever enough.

  Zhang Hang helped Qin Feng up: "Alright, no need for so much courtesy! Be careful of your wound, hurry up and take care of it."

  He helped Qin Feng up, and couldn't help but secretly sigh with a bitter smile. He never would have dreamed that he would be taking on an apprentice five years older than him in a Hong Kong hospital!

  The apprentice has also been received, and Zhang Hang, this "senior", should give Qin Feng, this "junior", a gift for meeting. He took out a yellow notebook from his pocket and handed it over: "Qin Feng, this is my experience and insights in shooting and practicing sniping over the years, I'm giving it to you. I'll be leaving tomorrow and don't have time to teach you hand-in-hand, so take a look at it when you're free, hoping it can help you."

  Qin Feng respectfully accepted it with both hands, knowing that this was his master's experience and heart's blood. He didn't know how he could be so lucky to receive it without doing anything.

  "Thank you, Master!" Qin Feng's voice was a little choked up.

  "A real man, don't be a momma's boy! However, don't get too excited yet. If I see you again next time and you haven't made progress, I won't acknowledge you as my apprentice. Also, before passing my assessment, you can't claim to be my apprentice to others."

  "Yes, Master!" Qin Feng didn't quite understand Zhang Hang's intention, but he still readily agreed.

  "Master, if I'm not mistaken, your sniper rifle should be the latest improved weapon of the Chinese army, with a range of over 3,000 meters. It's not something that ordinary snipers can use, it's a super elite sniper rifle.

  After paying respects to their master, Qin Feng and Zhang Hang's distance was shortened, and they no longer had the awkward feeling from the beginning."

  Zhang Hang's eyes lit up, unexpectedly this kid really had insight. So he used his eyes to encourage him to continue speaking, wanting to hear how much he actually knew.

  Qin Feng saw the encouraging gaze of his master and knew that he had guessed correctly, so he continued to say: "Master, you should be from the most mysterious unit in China's inland, every member is a special warfare expert, the elite among the elite, directly under the Military Commission, with a series of privileges at home, even the power of life and death. As long as you think the opponent is a dangerous element or terrorist, you can kill him on the spot! Your unit has no organization, no number, only code name. In the upcoming exercise, facing the red side's army corps, unexpectedly won a complete victory, you are the mobile force with the code name Shenlong!"

  This time Zhang Hang's mouth was wide open and the sharp light in his eyes became even brighter: "Why do you say that, what evidence do you have?" Neither admitting nor denying.

  The commander of the Red Army airborne brigade that was designed to be annihilated in that exercise is my neighbor. I followed my parents to Hong Kong when I was 15, but we have always kept in touch.

  "Huh?"; Zhang Hang was shocked in his heart, if it was really like that, then the commander of the airborne brigade had made a mistake, and not just an ordinary small mistake.

  However, Master, he didn't directly tell you about his origins. He only sighed on the phone that one of his brigades couldn't beat your battalion, how embarrassing! What's strange is that after the exercise ended, the commander didn't severely criticize him, but just told him to strengthen training in the future. Because of this, he was also a bit puzzled. So at the time, I guessed that you were that legendary unit from folk tales. Except for you, I really couldn't think of any other unit with such formidable combat strength. It wasn't until I saw the dragon-shaped emblem on your chest and witnessed your shooting and hand-to-hand combat skills that I dared to confirm!

  Zhang Hang felt a little relieved that the tour leader had not done anything more out of line, although this was somewhat against the rules, but it still couldn't be considered leaking secrets.

  At the same time, Zhang Hang couldn't help but look at his newly recruited apprentice Qin Feng with a different eye. A quick mind and meticulous thinking are one of the necessary conditions for becoming an excellent sniper.

  "Apply your cleverness to sniper training, carefully experience the insights on my manuscript, remember that diligence can make up for clumsiness, but on the basis of diligent practice, you must also use your brain more, on the battlefield, two opponents with the same technical and tactical abilities meet, the one who can survive is often the one who uses his brain!"

  "Got it, Master!" Qin Feng replied respectfully.

  Zhang Hang's brief words benefited Qin Feng greatly, and these precious experiences indeed made Qin Feng achieve great things later on. In Hong Kong, he was known as the "God of Guns".

  "Boss, are you still in the hospital? We're at KTV singing songs, Pang's team is treating us to a farewell party. Take note of the address and come over quickly!" Chu Lei then reported a specific address.

  "Alright, I've got it. See you later." Zhang Hang put the pen back in the drawer: "Qin Feng, take good care of yourself and recover from your injury soon. I'm going to Pang's place now. We'll be leaving early tomorrow morning, and Pang is hosting a farewell dinner for us."

  "Master, take care!"

  "Take care! We'll meet again!"; With that, Zhang Hang lightly patted Qin Feng's shoulder and turned to leave.
