"Brother Tang, I am thirty-two years old this year. How much longer am I older than you? I need to call you brother!" Gu Huize looked at the correspondent who was counting the rings not far away with a smile on his face. "
I believe that you are not at all worried about your shooting performance, but I do not believe that you are not at all curious about the surprise I mentioned.'
Obviously, after the conversation just now, the relationship between the two has become much closer. This person is not willing to continue to use the harsh title of military. Calling him "brother" can really bring the two people closer.
"Hehe, Brother Gu is really right about this." Tang Dao chuckled and handed a cigarette to his colleague who finally became relaxed. "Although it is a competition, shooting results alone cannot fully represent
In terms of combat power, I don’t have high requirements for my incompetent subordinates, as long as they can reach their normal level. But the surprise you mentioned, Brother Gu, made Tang Dao feel like a cat scratching his heart. He just wished that Brother Gu, you would immediately
Reveal the answer.”
"I want to know! That depends on the abilities of your brothers, Brother Tang! Anyway, before your brother came to test the gun, this surprise gift was already prepared, but my commander also said whether to give it or not.
, it all depends on my mood." There was a smile in Gu Huize's eyes, and he wanted to hide it mysteriously.
This undoubtedly enhanced Tang Dao's curiosity, especially since his commander was involved, at least at the division level.
"Okay! I, Tang Dao, will decide on Brother Gu's mysterious gift. If my incompetent brothers can't do it, you can wait for me to go into battle in person. All the elites of the 662nd Regiment are welcome to come and challenge." Tang Dao, however, was proud.
Unabashedly coveting the mysterious gift.
What he said made the surrounding security guards of the 662nd Regiment grin. The commander of the regiment really yawned like a toad - such a loud tone!
To be able to be the leader of a regiment means to be the best in command and decision-making. It does not mean that individual soldier skills are great, or it may be very powerful. After all, the regiment leader also started from the grassroots level, but to say that
To be able to outshine the entire group's elites is definitely a big deal.
Moreover, this comparison is not wise for a group leader.
Soldiers are good at marksmanship because that's what they eat. If they can't kill the enemy, they have to die in their turn.
To put it bluntly, that is their major. Who would compare their amateurism with their majors and say so domineeringly?
If a few elite soldiers are really selected to compare this person to shame, then this grand commander will be embarrassed.
Those who think this way naturally only belong to people who don’t understand Tang Dao.
For the guards standing around Tang Dao, there was surprise in their eyes.
Since Tang Dao became the commander of the independent battalion, he has rarely had the opportunity to kill the enemy on the front line. It is difficult for ordinary soldiers to see how powerful Tang Dao is as a single soldier.
But Tang Dao is like a peerless martial arts master. Although he has been away from the world for a long time, his legend is still circulated in the world.
Their squad leader, Zhen La Ya, told a lot about how Tang Dao was able to defeat four Japanese invaders with one hand and four hands in the Battle of Si Xing Warehouse. He saw it with his own eyes, and there was also the evidence from the deputy squad leader.
, but that’s not the most awesome thing about Tang Tuanzuo.
The most awesome thing is his shooting skills!
Second Lieutenant Niu Er, who is known as the second sharpshooter of the Independent Battalion, has sniped and killed Japanese officers as far away as 500 meters away. In the Battle of Mouse Mountain, he even had an astonishing record of killing 16 Japanese soldiers with a single shot. But such a miraculous sharpshooter
, but never dared to be the first
The reason was the existence of their regimental commander. Almost all the officers who followed Tang Dao Rijiu recognized the ranking of Second Lieutenant Niu Er as the second sharpshooter.
This group of guards had long wanted to see Tang Dao's marksmanship with their own eyes. After hearing what he said, they had a bad feeling in their hearts that it would be better for their comrades to lose a lot and then wait for their superiors to show off their prowess to earn back face.
But obviously, the elites are elites wherever they are, even if they use semi-automatic rifles that they are not familiar with.
During this period of time when the two colonels Tang Dao and Gu Huize were chatting casually, the captains who had counted the number of rounds of officers and soldiers participating in the shooting competition had already received their final results. Judging from their somewhat blank expressions, the results of the 662nd Regiment were worrying.
"Niu Manshan, why are you in such a daze? Let Commander Tang and I take a look at the results." Gu Huize was such a smart man. He glanced at the confused commander of his special agent company and figured out what was wrong.
While my heart skipped a beat, my face remained calm.
"Yes, Tuanzuo!" The army captain came over with the statistics.
The statistics on a piece of paper are No. 1 to No. 4, which are the shooting results of the four officers and soldiers of the 662nd Regiment.
"76, 79, 83, 89! Not bad!" Gu Huize frowned as he read the shooting ring numbers of his officers and soldiers. This result was better than he expected.
Tang Dao's Four Lines Regiment has never used this kind of semi-automatic rifle, but the Northeast Army has a lot of equipment, especially the 105th Division Guard Battalion of the 49th Army, which is equipped with at least 30. As the battalion commander of the guard battalion, Gu Huize
I am very familiar with the performance of this rifle.
The biggest advantages of this semi-automatic rifle are its large magazine capacity and fast rate of fire. 10 bullets can be fired almost completely within 10 seconds. Its firepower is extremely fierce, far exceeding that of a bolt-action rifle, and its effective range is not inferior to that of a bolt-action rifle.
Bolt-action rifles, just looking at their advantages, have extremely excellent performance.
But its shortcomings are also fatal! Because the recoil caused by continuous shooting is too great, it makes it difficult for its ballistics to remain stable. The accuracy of one or two bullets may be okay, but it is much worse afterward.
.
This leads to a dilemma. If you want to maintain the density of firepower, you have to shoot continuously as fast as possible, but accuracy is difficult to guarantee. If you want to ensure accuracy, the shooting speed has to be slowed down, which is not as crisp as a submachine gun.
A submachine gun requires a ton of accuracy. No matter what, a bunch of bullets will be swept out straight away, forming a fire net. Only one of the 20 bullets can hit the enemy. If the enemy is in a dense charging formation, one shot of bullets may catch all the bullets.
, the biggest shortcoming is that the range is not enough.
Therefore, the army colonel who was well versed in the characteristics of the ZH-29 semi-automatic rifle did not place the target too far away, but placed it 150 meters away for this reason.
After all, most soldiers empty their magazines within 30 seconds, and the accuracy is difficult to guarantee! Don't compare yourself with each other. If the soldiers of the guard company, which represents the elite of the entire army, miss the target, it will be called a loss, no matter what.
This is true for both the 662nd Group and the Four Lines Group.
But his soldiers actually gave him a moderate surprise. The least one was above level 75, and the strongest one was even close to level 90, which was much stronger than he expected.
This result was very rare. After receiving the result, Gu Huize quickly thought of another question. Even though he was so good and still looked stupid like a goose, wouldn't that prove that the Four Elements Group was more powerful?
Quickly picking up the second piece of paper, the numbers on it made the well-connected army colonel couldn't help but open his eyes wide at that moment.
“60!’
This is an ordinary number, and the result is barely passing.
“80!’
A score of No. 6 is immediately classified as excellent.
“89!’
The score of No. 7 was miraculously exactly the same as that of the guard squad leader of the 662nd Regiment.
But this kind of parallel shooting performance is not surprising to Gu Huize, who has been in the army for more than ten years and has worked his way up from a soldier to an infantry regiment commander.
The person who scored 89 points in the 662 Regiment was the guard squad leader under his command, and he was also one of the few veterans he brought to the 662 Regiment from the divisional security battalion.
He was both a confidant and one of the few strong soldiers in the division's guard camp. It was not because he wanted to show support for him that the army commander was reluctant to bring those veterans to the infantry regiment.
Although Gu Huize was talking to Tang Dao, part of his attention was actually still on the shooting range. It took more than 20 seconds from the moment when his subordinates fired to the end, with an average of one shot every two and a half seconds, ensuring that the ZH-29 semi-automatic rifle
With the proper rate of fire, it can still achieve a score of 89 rings, which is already amazing.
But this does not mean that only his soldiers can achieve this result. The guard squad leader of the Fourth Army Regiment, who looks ordinary but extremely confident, is an extremely capable soldier at first glance. If he can achieve such results, it will also be incredible.
It's strange.
Gu Huize never underestimates anyone, which is one of the important reasons why he can survive on countless battlefields to this day.
But the next number almost dazzled him.
"97!
That almost means that the soldier who achieved this almost exaggerated result shot at least 7 shots of 10 rings, and the other three shots were also 9 rings!
This unscientific!
When they heard their regiment commander shout out the number '97' in surprise, the officers and soldiers of the 662nd Regiment showed disbelief on their faces.
Especially the soldiers who had been standing neatly waiting for the results, including several people from the Fourth Line Regiment, even they themselves did not expect that any of them would achieve such high results.
Only elite soldiers like them who have controlled semi-automatic rifles know how difficult it is to shoot quickly and accurately with this gun.
The powerful recoil has been impacting their shoulders. In order to ensure accuracy, they have to reduce their rate of fire. But even so, these elite soldiers who have fired countless bullets have no idea what they can do.
What kind of results.
Perhaps, only Shen Laoliu, who was at the end of the queue, was having fun, grinning with joy!
Intuitively, he felt that was his achievement.
Because, as soon as he got started with that rifle, he felt a sense of familiarity. Soldiers who were used to using rifles would feel too much recoil when shooting continuously, but this was not the case for someone who shot at least thousands of bullets with a ZB-26 light machine gun.
For an experienced machine gunner, this is no big deal.
As the main shooter of the sharp knife squad, Shen Laoliu was the most important fire support shooter in the infantry squad in every battle the company participated in. His position was basically in a simple fortification at least 30 meters behind the front-line infantry.
It was not only a protection for him, but also a protection for the entire infantry squad. If he lost the light machine gun in his hand, the infantry squad's defense line would encounter insufficient firepower when facing the Japanese "board-mounted" charge. What a sacrifice.
The cost is undoubtedly huge.
It is precisely because of this that Shen Laoliu's shooting range is actually much longer than that of the infantry. The Japanese army began to crawl when they were 200 meters away from the trench. When they were 150 meters away, they began to charge under the cover of artillery and grenade launchers. As a machine gunner, Shen Laoliu began to crawl forward.
Lao Liu would often start suppressing fire when the Japanese infantry was 150 to 100 meters away from the trenches.
He even needed to counter-suppress Japanese light machine guns as far away as 300 meters or 400 meters from the trenches.
That also means that Shen Laoliu's shooting range is actually much farther than most.
The machine gun bullets are limited. It does not mean simply pointing into the distance and holding the trigger. A single bullet sweep will ensure that it hits the almost invisible Japanese machine gun shooter who is prostrate behind the simple fortifications in the distance.
Many times, Shen Laoliu used burst fire. He pulled the trigger once and fired at most two or three bullets. Even if he failed to hit the Japanese army, he still let them throw rat weapons and did not dare to shoot arbitrarily on the ground to form a cover for the infantry.
In other words, the machine gunner who has been shooting at 200 meters or even 300 meters or 400 meters away for a long time is now facing a range of no more than 150 meters. This should not be too simple for this old man.
Coupled with the almost similar gun structure, Shen Laoliu was extremely confident! He was sure that the 97 rings were shot by himself. "Bring over the No. 8 target paper!" Gu Huize still couldn't believe it.
The Army Captain waved over there, and a soldier quickly ran over with a target paper and placed it respectfully in front of his regimental officer. The red heart in the center of the target paper had been torn by bullets and was almost thin, and the silver ocean was even larger by two circles.
It is basically impossible to tell how many holes there are in the red heart, but 3 are clearly left on the 9 rings on the outer ring.
"It's hard to tell! We can only confirm that there are at most 4 bullets with traces of bullet penetration. There may be a possibility of missing the target!" Tang Dao suddenly interjected.
"Report to Commander Tang, we can no longer tell how many bullets were hit in the center of the target paper, and the wooden target was also penetrated by bullets. We can't find the bullets, but according to the brother's level, at least 4 shots hit the bullseye and 3 shots hit the nine rings.
It is judged that the possibility of missing the target is extremely small, and all but the three shots should have hit the bullseye!" The special agent company commander stood at attention with both feet and reported loudly to Tang Dao.
Tang Dao laughed!
Of course, he didn't mean to test the captain, but the captain still gave him the most satisfactory answer.
What kind of commander brings out what kind of soldiers? It seems that he was right about the army colonel with whom he had a very congenial conversation just now.
"Well! You did a good job, and the results are what they should be! To put it in perspective, even if all three shots missed the target, this brother still scored 67 points, which is better than many people here!" Gu
Hui Ze nodded and looked at the officers and soldiers of the Fourth Line Regiment who were still standing in line in front of the shooting position. "That brother of the Fourth Line Regiment is No. 8? Get out of the queue!"
"Arrived!" Shen Laoliu took a step forward.
His face was trying to be serious, but the corners of his mouth could not hide the upward curve.
Today I, Shen Laoliu, will become famous. This is the machine gunner's only thought at the moment.
"Untie your uniform!" the army colonel standing in front of him suddenly ordered.
Shen Laoliu was slightly startled, but he couldn't help but obey the order and unbutton his shirt.
Gu Huize pulled open Shen Laoliu's unbuttoned military uniform and exposed his shoulders. The calluses in the shoulder sockets were clearly visible.
Those are the marks that can only appear if you are continuously impacted by the gun butt for a long time!
"Soldier, how many years have you been in the military? What battles have you participated in? What military position do you hold?'
"Reporting to Chief Gu, I am Shen Laoliu. I have been in the army for 3 years. I participated in the Battle of Songhu, the Battle of Songjiang, the Battle of Baihe Port, the Battle of Jiaxing Defense Line, and the Battle of Guangde. I have been serving as a light machine gunner since I retreated to Sihang Warehouse.
!" Shen Laoliu puffed up his chest and replied.
"Okay! Sure enough, he is a soldier who can fight in a hundred battles!" Gu Huize roared and turned to look at the other three people, "Please also ask the three brothers to apply for military service!"
"Grenadier!"
‘Precision marksman!’
"Monitor!'
"Sure enough!" Gu Huize said to himself, but his eyes showed relief.
No wonder someone only scored 60 points. I think it was the grenade shooter. He hadn’t used a rifle for a long time, and he had to use a semi-automatic rifle that was completely different from a bolt-action rifle. To be able to achieve such a score is enough to be proud of.
.
"Thank you brothers from the Fourth Army Regiment. Thank you for allowing me and the 662nd Regiment to see the so-called strong army!" Gu Huize raised his hand and saluted several soldiers from the Fourth Army Regiment.
It was an officer's salute to an army that had fought hundreds of battles.
This is not only a salute to their wonderful performance today, but also to the cruel battlefield they have experienced. Without that experience, it is absolutely impossible to perform like this.
"Thank you for the compliment, sir!" Several soldiers quickly returned the compliment.
Shen Laoliu could hardly hide the smile in his eyes, so he said hello to the Army Colonel and took the initiative to salute him, which was enough for him to brag about his awesomeness for the rest of his life.
Gu Huize put down his hand and looked at Tang Dao on the side, and said seriously: "Brother Tang, our 662nd group lost this competition! It makes you laugh, brother!'
"Individual soldier performance, Brother Gu, your subordinate lost, but the overall score was a win. How about a tie?" Tang Dao shook his head and replied.
Gu Huize just laughed. He didn't calculate the total score. In fact, the Four Elements Group's amazing score of 97 rings was enough to kill them all in an instant.
After inspecting the veteran just now, he already roughly knew the reason why the veteran machine gunner could achieve such amazing results. The shortcomings of this gun that others were not familiar with did not exist for him.
Gu Huize was even sure that the total duration of Shen Laoliu's shooting would never exceed 25 seconds.
"Haha, brother Tang may not know that the three people just selected by you are all the elites of our guard squad. The youngest among them has more than four years of military service, but the brother who just won the first place has only three years.
Soldiers, at this point, our 662nd regiment is defeated!" Gu Huize chuckled and shook his head, rejecting Tang Dao's kindness and admitting defeat calmly.
Before Tang Dao could answer, the army colonel changed the topic: "However, I remember just now, brother Tang, you said that if your brother is defeated, then you, the commander of the regiment, will go into battle personally, right?'
"Yes." Tang Dao had a toothache, and he seemed to already know what this person meant.
"But now my brother is defeated. As an elder brother, I can only compete with you to get back the lost face!" A smile appeared on Gu Huize's face. "But don't blame me.
Brother, didn’t I remind you that when I was the platoon leader, I was the best shooter in the division, so I was discovered by my superiors and promoted to the guard camp!”
Tang Dao shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Number one in the entire division? Then he was number one in the Border Military Region back then.
How can he handle this if he takes the initiative to hit the iron plate?
