Chapter 40: Real gun control! Sister-in-law is here!
On Monday morning, Xu Ge ran an all-around run as usual to warm up.
The four veterans continued to stay in the obstacle course to protect Kai Youmu for the next training, while Guo Yuanshuai brought Xu Ge, who was covered in sweat, to the shooting range.
Five steel targets were placed thirty meters away, and wall cloth was laid on the ground at the shooting position.
According to Guo Yuanshuai's request, Xu Ge disassembled his 191 assault rifle and a Type 92 pistol, placed the parts on the gun cloth, and then began to load bullets into each magazine.
Guo Yuanshuai was playing with the compass Xu Can had given Xu Ge and asked, "I noticed you've been looking at the observer's notebook Lei Zi gave you these past few days. So, do you want to be an observer?"
"He said I'm quite suitable to be an observer. Anyway, my shooting skills have not improved, so I thought of giving it a try." Xu Ge replied.
In fact, since he joined the company, he has accepted the fact that he has no talent for shooting. Of course, the talent here is compared with people like Li Dongshui.
Even with the support of the system, the speed at which my shooting skills improve cannot be compared with that of the other party. You can imagine the gap.
Xu Ge knew that if he did nothing every day and just spent time in the shooting range shooting bullets, his shooting skills would definitely reach level 5 or even higher sooner or later, but it would be meaningless.
Putting aside the question of whether this is realistic or not, even if the deputy squad leader and the company commander are really willing to feed themselves with a huge amount of bullets, it is unknown how long it will take. After all, the higher the level, the slower the increase in proficiency.
Is it possible that I have to rely on the rewards for completing military orders to improve? Then what about my other skills?
"Do you have some misunderstanding about spotters?" Guo Yuanshuai asked angrily. "Who told you that spotters don't need good marksmanship? Have you ever seen a spotter who struggles to shoot 200 meters like you?"
Xu Ge: ...
"Squad leader, are you saying that there are also shooting requirements for observers?"
"Nonsense! An operation team like theirs, the Hidden Wolf, consists of six people. The observer's shooting skill must be second only to the sniper's. If the sniper has an accident during a mission, the observer will be the one to take over!"
"Then I just need to protect the sniper and prevent him from getting into any accidents, right?"
Bang!
"You idiot... you're trying to argue with me, aren't you?" Guo Yuanshuai raised his hand and slapped him. "Let me ask you, what do you do when you're faced with two or more targets and need two people to shoot at them simultaneously?"
Xu Ge didn't dare to talk back and continued to load the bullets obediently.
Guo Yuanshuai continued, "A sniper is a sniper because his field of view through the scope is limited. He needs extreme concentration when shooting, and that's when he needs a spotter to help him observe other positions. But that doesn't mean the spotter doesn't have to have good marksmanship."
Hearing this, Xu Ge couldn't help but think of the scene when Thor was waving the banner. The distance was nearly one thousand meters. Even if he fired six shots, it was a height that most people could not reach.
"Anyway, if you want to be a spotter, keep practicing your shooting."
"knew!"
Xu Ge filled all six magazines, turned around and asked, "Deputy Squad Leader, we can begin!"
Guo Yuanshuai asked, "Start what?"
Xu Ge: "Teach me your best tricks!"
. . .
. . .
Click, click, click!
Xu Ge moved his hands quickly, and in a few seconds the parts on the gun cloth were restored into a complete 191 assault rifle.
drop!
Guo Yuanshuai pressed the stopwatch, glanced at the time, and nodded: "A little over 6 seconds, so-so. Put the pistol back together for me to see."
"yes!"
Click, click, click!
Xu Ge started moving again.
drop!
"Your pistol is obviously much faster than your rifle." Guo Yuanshuai became interested. "Have you practiced this specifically?"
Xu Ge thought for a moment and said, "I did shoot more with pistols during the shooting training in the recruit company."
"Well, your hand speed is pretty good, so let's get started."
After a test just now, Guo Yuanshuai saw that Xu Ge had met his requirements, so he started teaching.
"Rapid shooting means increasing your speed as much as possible while maintaining basic accuracy. To achieve this, besides your reaction speed, the most important thing is gun control!"
Guo Yuanshuai looked at Xu Ge and said, "Gun control is my unique skill."
“Gun control?”
Xu Ge didn't quite understand what the class vice-chairman meant.
He always thought that as long as he had a quick reaction and his hands kept up, he would be fine, and he never thought about the concept of gun control.
"Who is the fastest shooter you have ever seen?" Guo Yuanshuai asked.
Xu Ge said without hesitation: "It must be the Thunder God!"
"Have you ever seen him take action?"
“I’ve seen it!”
"So what do you think is the difference between you and him?"
Guo Yuanshuai's question stumped Xu Ge. He originally wanted to say that the opponent was faster than him, but Ban Fu obviously didn't want this answer.
Xu Ge carefully recalled the previous attacks of the Thunder God and said uncertainly, "It goes without saying that his hand speed is faster than mine. I feel like the gun seems to be more obedient in his hand?"
Guo Yuanshuai laughed: "This is gun control. A top-notch shooter must be extremely familiar with the weapon in his hands!"
Xu Ge picked up his 191 and said puzzledly, "Everyone's gun is the same, what's familiar or unfamiliar about it?"
"Let me ask you, how long is your gun and how much does it weigh?" Guo Yuanshuai suddenly asked.
Xu Ge was stunned for a moment, thinking about the theory he had learned before, and subconsciously said: "The gun is about 95 centimeters long and weighs about 3.4 kilograms."
Guo Yuanshuai shook his head: "You are talking about the factory data of the Type 191 assault rifle. I am asking about your own gun!"
"My gun is the same..." Xu Ge suddenly froze mid-sentence and looked at Guo Yuanshuai in surprise. "Squad leader, I understand what you mean. I really don't know the length and weight of my own gun!"
China's 191 gun family is fully modular, and all guns can have their barrels replaced, various accessories added, and the stock length automatically adjusted.
Xu Ge's height and arm span are taller than most people, so the buttstock of his gun is extended two spaces outward, but he doesn't know the exact distance of this extension.
Also, even with a scope installed on the gun, he still didn't know how much it weighed with a full magazine, let alone the specific weight after adding other accessories.
Xu Ge now understood what the squad leader meant. He really didn't know the length and weight of his gun!
Guo Yuanshuai knew Xu Ge understood from his expression, and said with a smile, "You can't even figure out your own gun, so how can you talk about gun control? Needless to say, you definitely don't know the specifications of that Type 92 pistol, right?"
"The length of Type 92 seems to be 20 centimeters... Deputy Squad Leader, I really don't know!" Xu Ge said truthfully.
"Your gun, with the stock extended two notches, has a total length of 99 centimeters. With the scope and a full magazine, it weighs 4.2 kilograms."
Guo Yuanshuai reached out and picked up the pistol, weighing it. "This gun is 19 centimeters long, and with the 15-round magazine, it weighs about one kilogram."
"With different lengths and weights, you need to use different forces and angles to control them!"
Snap!
Xu Ge only felt a flash before his eyes, and Guo Yuanshuai had already completed the action of loading and firing the gun.
"Did you see the difference in how I fired my gun just now?"
"I see!" Xu Ge's face was filled with excitement. "Fuck, how did you manage to synchronize the movements of drawing the gun and pulling the bolt?"
Guo Yuanshuai smiled and said, "You see? This is real gun control!"
With Xu Ge's current visual motion capture ability, he clearly saw how Guo Yuanshuai drew his gun.
Just like Thor, pull it back to your chest first, then push it out in a straight line.
However, it seemed that Guo Yuanshuai did not try his best, and his speed was not much slower than Thor. The reason was that while pulling back, he used inertia to pull the bolt slide of the pistol, pushing the bullet into the chamber while sending it out.
In Xu Ge's opinion, the gun in Guo Yuanshuai's hand seemed to have a spring installed on it, giving people the feeling that the gun was moving his arm!
"Deputy class leader, I want to learn this!"
"First, become completely familiar with your own gun, and then I will tell you the specific techniques."
. . .
. . .
In the following period, in addition to the two all-around events that Xu Ge did every day, he also did 200-meter shooting and firearms assembly, but Guo Yuanshuai never let him start practicing rapid shooting at steel targets.
After completing all the training every day, we would disassemble and assemble the rifles and pistols, and load the magazines with bullets one by one to feel the weight.
In his spare time, Xu Ge was also studying the observation notebook given to him by Thor. Sometimes he would run around the training ground with a compass, learning to calculate angles and distances based on the contents of the notebook.
In this way, ten days passed in a flash, and all the data on the token advanced a lot again, and the shooting skill also entered the LV4 level.
This is reflected in Xu Ge's shooting level, which means that he can now occasionally get full marks at a distance of 200 meters.
What surprised him was that as Guo Yuanshuai explained gun control, the skill value of rapid shooting also increased a lot.

It started snowing again in the past two days, and the training ground was covered in white. The training in the obstacle course and climbing building was stopped by the section chief of the base.
In addition, with the Spring Festival approaching, fewer and fewer companies come here for training every day.
When Liu Guoping saw this situation, he simply organized the entire company to practice target shooting for two days.
Bang bang bang!
Da da da!
Ding dang dang!
The sounds of various rifles and pistols as well as the sounds of steel targets being hit stimulated Xu Ge's eardrums. After he completed the disassembly and assembly of the guns again in the climbing building, he couldn't help but speak.
"Deputy Squad Leader, why don't you let me shoot at the steel plate target?"
Guo Yuanshuai, wrapped in his coat, sat against the wall in the corner, puffing leisurely. "Why are you in such a hurry? Can't you hit a 30-meter steel target with your eyes closed? What you need to do now is practice your gun control!"
Xu Ge: "But I feel like I've mastered gun control. It's time to go shoot some real targets."
Xu Ge didn’t really like target shooting before, especially after Guo Yuanshuai made him shoot through several boxes of bullets during that period of extra training. But now, hearing the gunshots from the shooting range, he felt itchy again.
Guo Yuanshuai stood up and walked over. "Wear your firearm according to competition standards and fire it in the air for me to see."
"yes!"
Xu Ge immediately stood up, put his rifle on his back, and put his pistol in the holster on his thigh, ready to draw his gun.
drop!
Guo Yuanshuai pressed the stopwatch: "Shoot!"
Snap!
Xu Ge grabbed the handguard of the rifle behind him with his left hand, quickly turned it to the front and used the movements he had researched to change the magazine and pull the bolt, then he held the gun and pulled the trigger!
Bang!
After firing, he immediately lowered the rifle in front of his body, pulled out the pistol with his right hand, and loaded and fired the gun with his left hand in the same way as Guo Yuanshuai.
Bang!
drop!
Guo Yuanshuai stared at the numbers on the stopwatch for a long time before he slowly said, "Let's go to the shooting range!"
After arriving at the shooting range, Guo Yuanshuai directly asked Kai Youmu to give up his position, and asked the company commander Liu Guoping for a voice-controlled timer.
Xu Ge had also loaded the magazine with live ammunition.
"Just now in the building, one of the attacks was a miss, and the other was that the manual timing was inaccurate. Come, let's do a real test!"
Guo Yuanshuai put the timer next to Chen Rong's ear and said, "Five shots with the rifle and five with the pistol. The premise is that all of them must hit the target. Are you ready?"
Xu Ge swung his arms: "Ready!"
"Hear the sound and shoot on your own!"
drop!
Xu Ge moved quickly.
Da da da da! Pa pa pa pa!
Ding ding ding ding! Ding ding ding ding!
The sudden burst of dense gunfire and the rhythmic sound of steel plates colliding echoed over the shooting range.
The attention of the other people who were shooting around was attracted by the obviously different movements here.
Xu Ge turned around impatiently and asked, "Deputy squad leader, how many seconds?"
"5.6 seconds!" Guo Yuanshuai said excitedly, "Man, I think you've got first place for sure!"
The veterans standing by were all shocked!
"Fuck, so fast?!"
What does 5.6 seconds mean? The current record in the group is only 4.1 seconds. But remember that was in the preparation state of holding the gun with both hands without reloading. Xu Ge not only had to change the magazine in the middle of the shot, but also had to change the gun from being carried on his back to holding it!
If Xu Ge also held the gun with both hands without changing the magazine, it is hard to say whether he could break the record!
"If nothing else, Xu Ge is probably the fastest one in our company right now!"
Kaiyoumu sighed, he himself couldn't do it that fast anyway.
As for the new recruits in the same batch, let alone changing magazines and guns, even if they just shoot, they may not be able to finish firing 10 bullets in five seconds.
"Kai Youmu, how can you talk like that? Who said Xu Ge is the fastest? Obviously the fastest is our class vice-president!" Niu Sanxian was the first to flatter him.
Guo Yuanshuai accepted it calmly and waved his hand: "Alright, that's enough training for today. I've already told the company commander, you all go clean your guns, and we'll go back early today."
Xu Ge asked curiously, "Deputy Ban, why are we going back?"
"Your sister-in-law is here, let me take you to dinner!" Guo Yuanshuai said with a smile.
