Guns are the second life for soldiers. They are also the basis for soldiers to fight the enemy bloody on the battlefield. They are an inseparable existence.
Good marksmanship becomes the basis for judging whether a soldier is a good fighter.
Therefore, soldiers with good marksmanship are most popular in infantry companies.
As an armored infantry regiment with a unique position under the 84th Group Army Infantry Division, the 702nd Regiment is a mixed regiment of tanks and infantry.
No matter the company or company under its banner, there are infantry.
Gang 7th Company is the armored reconnaissance infantry company with the most elite infantry combat capability in the 702nd Armored Infantry Regiment, and even the entire company is made up of infantrymen.
Therefore, sharpshooters are highly sought after in every company of the regiment.
In order to select good soldiers for their companies, several company commanders took time out today to come over to observe this live-fire shooting.
Gao Cheng, the "selfish" and thief commander of the Seventh Company, saw people coming to rob people, and he was so anxious that he couldn't do anything.
After all, the recruit company is not exclusive to the Seventh Company. Gao Cheng is only the company commander responsible for the training of these new recruits, and there is no way to prevent other company commanders from coming.
The other company commanders knew that Gao Cheng was "selfish" and secretly hid good soldiers every year, so they came here specially today.
Seeing Gao Cheng so anxious that he almost scratched his head and head, the other company commanders felt happy in their hearts.
Almost laughed out loud!
In this atmosphere of "joy and laughter", the other company commanders seemed peaceful and regarded Gao Cheng as the unified "enemy".
However, their eyes revealed their secrets, and they actually regarded each other as competitors.
Sitting in the team, Jackie Chan was still much taller, occupying two positions by himself, and became the target of every company commander's secret attention.
They all heard about Jackie Chan's "glorious deeds" and basically came here for Jackie Chan.
Jackie Chan was able to become a benchmark in the internal affairs evaluation. He defeated the old squad leader in the dismantling and reassembly of the rifle, and he was also top-notch in every other subject.
Now comes the most important live-fire shooting, and all company commanders are looking forward to Jackie Chan's performance.
Let’s see if he can create another “miracle”!
A group of chief officers of each company gathered on the hillside and "intrigue" each other in the best position to view, and took great pains to introduce new recruits.
The recruits in the audience are also gearing up one by one, hoping that they can achieve good results.
Especially Chengcai, who loves to be in the limelight, saw so many officers on the hill and realized that this was a good opportunity, so he set the goal of 50 rings.
In an attempt to achieve his dream of becoming the sniper king through this live-fire target shooting.
When new recruits practice shooting for the first time, they only focus on the number of targets they hit, and they don't pursue the number of rounds at all, because their level is not reached at all. It's a big deal if they can hit all five shots.
Chengcai set his goal directly to 50 rings...
I don’t know if I should say that he is fearless in ignorance, but that he is so ambitious due to his inflated self-confidence.
Xu Sanduo is a short boy sitting on the far left side of the team, far away from Cheng Cai, who is 1.8 meters tall, and Jackie Chan, who is 1.92 meters tall. There are seven other recruits in the class in between.
He was also very excited to be able to shoot real guns.
But I was more nervous and confused.
My eyes glanced at Jackie Chan from time to time, hoping to gain spiritual support and strengthen my courage, but it was too far away to use, so I could only sit there uneasily.
Wu Liuyi, the fifth squad leader, was also very nervous. He is a person who values honor very much.
At this last juncture, he did not forget to improvise.
Constantly comforting every recruit in Class 5, telling them not to be nervous while shooting, and to remember what he usually teaches in training.
He doesn't ask for how many rings each person can score. As long as the whole class can score, he will be satisfied.
The first class went up first for target practice.
The 10 recruits lined up to receive five rounds of ammunition, then squatted on the ground with the muzzle of the rifle facing the shoulder of the inclined frame, pressed the bullets into the magazine and loaded them into the chest strap.
"Towards the firing line."
The recruits completed their preparatory movements for target shooting, the commander issued a new command, and a squad ran into the shooting line in a column. Each of the 10 recruits occupied a shooting position.
"Take a step back and go."
"Load bullets while lying down!"
Following the commander's precise command, a group of recruits took a step back to give up their position according to the movements they learned every day, and then lay down and took the gun in a prone shooting position.
Remove the empty magazine from the gun and put it into the magazine bag. Take out the five-round magazine from the magazine bag and load it into the Bayi rifle.
Extending your line of sight 100 meters ahead, you can see the chest ring target standing there.
This is the 100-meter chest ring target shooting in the prone position. It is the only shooting subject in the three-month recruitment period, and it is also the most basic shooting practice.
"Are you a pig? Have you forgotten everything you learned?"
Just as all the recruits were loading their magazines, the commander suddenly rushed over, kicked a recruit in the butt, and cursed him fiercely.
The other recruits were so frightened that they all looked over.
I saw the recruit who had been kicked on the butt. The safety of his gun had already been turned on, and his hand had already touched the handle of the bolt. It looked like he was ready to load the gun.
"I'm sorry, I'm too nervous."
The recruit was frightened and trembled, but fortunately his reaction speed was quite fast.
Remembering that it was not the loading stage yet, I quickly let go of my hand, opened the safety again, and resumed the loading action.
New recruits will be nervous and forget the steps when they practice target for the first time. The commander has obviously seen too many things before.
Seeing that the recruit had corrected himself in time, he did not continue to pester him, so he took a few steps back and gave the final instructions before shooting.
"Start shooting!"
Upon hearing the commander's command, the recruits turned off the safety as quickly as possible, loaded the gun, rested the gun on the front support, and aimed at the chest ring target ahead.
Aim at the three-point and one-line target with a gap in the crosshair, and the ten-ring bullseye 100 meters away is smaller than the crosshair.
In addition, I was too excited and nervous for my first target practice, so my heart rate was faster and my breathing became more rapid.
Even if there is a sandbag under the butt of the gun to support it, the crosshair still cannot lock the target, but fluctuates with the breathing and heartbeat.
The more the recruits try to hold the gun still, the wider the crosshair will drift.
After all, one of the new recruits couldn’t hold back his anger...
"Pa~"
The gun went off!
The first recruit fired as if giving an order, and the other recruits, whether they were frightened or unable to hold back, pulled the trigger like crazy.
"Pah, pah, pah..."
10 guns fired a single shot at the same time, and the sound of the gunfire was like beans fried in a bamboo tube.
"The beating... was just a noise."
Jackie Chan looked at the wisps of dust bouncing in the distance, and basically had something in his mind.
After more than ten seconds of excitement, all the recruits in the group stopped, emptied all the bullets in their magazines, and lay there with unfinished aftertaste.
"Gun test!"
The commander continued to issue commands.
Based on what they learned in training, the recruits pulled the trigger again and pulled the trigger with the muzzle forward to ensure that there were no remaining bullets in the gun.
The instructor then gave the final command, asking the recruits to stand up and take them back.
