Chapter 93: A challenge beyond one’s level? I finally hit the jackpot!
"What did you say?" Li Dongshui was confused by Xu Ge's words.
Not only Li Dongshui, but other recruits also didn't understand what Xu Ge meant.
Kai Youmu looked at Xu Ge: "You have never shot at a target like this. Let me tell you, even though it is still now, as long as..."
"I know!"
Xu Ge interrupted, "Deputy Squad Leader, what I mean is, isn't it enough to just shoot down all five targets as soon as possible?"
Everyone: ???
"No, do you know what you are saying?" Li Dongshui looked at Xu Ge as if he were a fool.
Xu Ge casually fiddled with the windmill again and said, "I felt it and it takes a while for the windmill to start by relying on the center of gravity, which takes about one to two seconds.
Even if the windmill rotates during this period, its speed and amplitude will be very small. As long as you shoot fast enough, there will be no problem at all! "
"Tsk~"
The new recruits were too lazy to pay attention to Xu Ge and all left for the gathering place.
Are you kidding me? Shooting five targets in two seconds?
Seeing that no one believed him, Xu Ge was too lazy to explain anymore and followed the others back to the team.
Seeing that the training targets had been set up, Thor asked everyone to carry out all the guns and ammunition from the tent and pile them on the ground.
"Thirty rifles and thirty pistols, all calibrated. After receiving your gun, each person will register their own gun number. For the next seven days, each person will be responsible for their own gun!"
The recruits came forward one by one to receive their guns and register, and then each of them was given two magazines, a bullet belt and a pistol holster.
Everyone followed Thor's example, tying holsters to their thighs and inserting pistols, then putting on bullet belts and inserting spare magazines.
"Shoot as many bullets as you want. You'll be considered awesome after you're done!" Thor said with a smile.
The new recruits started to get excited. To be honest, no one was satisfied with the live-fire shooting last time, especially those in the first regiment. It had been more than half a month since their last shooting.
After everyone had their equipment in order, Thor took the recruits to the shooting position and started the class.
"Although our unit's shooting philosophy has now changed to absolute speed and absolute accuracy, speed has always been our primary goal."
"In actual combat, the enemy won't wait for you to find a base and stand still while you use your crosshairs to trap him, nor will they wait for you to adjust your breathing and then consciously aim and unconsciously fire!"
"If you really followed this, you would have been beaten into sieves long ago!"
Thor held his gun with the muzzle pointed downwards, looked at all the new recruits and asked, "So, what should we do when we encounter the enemy in actual combat?"
The recruits didn't dare to answer because they didn't know whether their ideas were right.
"Xu Ge!"
"arrive!"
"You say it!"
"Yes! I think when we encounter the enemy, we should raise our gun and shoot immediately!" Xu Ge shouted loudly.
Thor didn't say anything, but suddenly turned around, pointed his gun and pulled the trigger.
Da da da da!
Ding ding ding ding ding!
As the muzzle moved horizontally, all five bullets hit five steel plates in a row.
"That's right, don't think about anything, just raise your gun and shoot, and you'll get it!"
Thor turned around and, ignoring the shocked new recruits, asked again, "So, what should you do if your gun runs out of bullets? Should you immediately seek cover and reload?"
The new recruits reacted and shouted in unison: "Switch to pistols!"
"very good!"
Thor turned around, picked up the rifle again and pulled the trigger continuously.
Da da da da!
After firing five bullets, the rifle magazine was empty. Thor let go of the rifle and let it hang in front of him. He reached his right hand to his thigh and instantly pulled out the pistol and loaded it.
Bang bang bang bang!
Ding ding ding ding ding!
There were five more crisp sounds, and all five steel targets on another row of shelves were hit.
The recruits were all stunned. How fast! How cool!
. . .
. . .
Thor put his pistol into its holster and turned around: "Did you see the demonstration I gave you just now?"
“I see!”
"Okay, Li Dongshui, tell me what you saw."
"Instructor, I noticed you switched to a pistol immediately after you ran out of bullets in your rifle!"
"nonsense!"
Lei Shen scolded Li Dongshui mercilessly, and his face turned red.
"Can anyone tell me what the most important part of the set of moves I just performed is?"
Thor asked again, and this time no one dared to say anything.
"Kaiyoumu!"
"arrive!"
"You say it!"
"Yes! I think the most important thing the Chief Instructor demonstrated just now was the speed with which he could draw his pistol!"
"That's half the answer. Does anyone have anything to add?"
There was silence at the scene.
Lei Shen glanced at Xu Ge and said, "Xu Ge, you speak!"
"Yes! The most important part of the chief instructor's movements just now was switching guns!" Xu Ge replied calmly.
Everyone was stunned at first, and then showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.
Lei Shen glared at Xu Ge: "Since you know the answer, why don't you answer it?"
Xu Ge: ...
Can you find fault with this? If I had known this, I would have said I didn't know!
Seeing Xu Ge remained silent, Lei Shen was too lazy to argue anymore. He looked at everyone and said, "That's right, switching guns is an important skill you will need to use in actual combat. You have all played shooting games, right?"
“I’ve played it!”
"In the game, are all the experts' gun-switching speeds very fast?"
"yes!"
"So, does anyone know how to cut a gun in actual combat?"
As soon as Thor asked this question, the recruits were stuck again.
Even Kai Youmu couldn't think of how to answer this question for a moment. Although he was enlisting for the second time, as a member of the Hidden Wolves, Thor was teaching him special operations at that time, which he had never been exposed to.
Xu Ge in the team saw the Thunder God's gaze looking at him again, and knew that he would be called again, so he simply raised his hand: "Report, I know!"
"Um!"
Thor nodded in satisfaction, "Okay, Xu Ge, tell me about it."
"Yes!" Xu Ge briefly organized his words based on his memory and said, "What the chief instructor just demonstrated was the most direct way to switch guns, which is to simply release the rifle with both hands. This method is suitable for situations where the pistol is at the side of the body and you need to switch back to the rifle again.
If the pistol is placed on the chest, or there is other equipment on the chest, you can use the back-throw gun switching method. This method is also very fast, but the speed of switching from the pistol back to the rifle will be slightly slower.
In addition to these two types, you can also change the gun belt from a two-point type to a single-point type, so that you can... "
As Xu Ge continued his story, the whole audience fell silent.
Not to mention other recruits, even Xu Ge's comrades-in-arms Kai Youmu and Li Dongshui were equally shocked.
Xu Ge now seems like a different person. They can’t even understand some of the theories he says!
They also knew that Xu Ge had a fast shooting speed and high talent. After all, the chief instructor came to give him personal guidance.
But now it seems that Xu Ge is far ahead of others in terms of rapid shooting!
"That's all right!"
Seeing that Xu Ge's words were becoming more and more professional, and even began to touch upon the personalization and customization advocated by foreign militaries, Lei Shen interrupted and said,
"You guys, it seems like you really learned a lot from movies?"
Xu Ge smiled shyly and said nothing.
Thor continued his lecture: "Xu Ge's explanation was very comprehensive. This time we only need to learn the two types of firing methods: the downward-throwing and the back-throwing. In addition, we also need to practice the speed of changing magazines and shooting at close-range moving targets..."
At this point, Xu Ge was already certain that the content of this training camp was rapid shooting!
He summoned the token without hesitation and placed his consciousness on the military order button below, and a prompt appeared immediately.
[E-level Military Order Requirements: Get first place in any single subject in the battalion-level unit training assessment, or complete other challenges of corresponding difficulty]
[Confirm the challenge content now]
"It says here that the requirement for E-level is to get first place in a single event in the battalion-level unit assessment. I wonder if the training team is considered a battalion-level unit?"
Thinking of this, Xu Ge decided to confirm the content first.
"The challenge is to get first place in this shooting training assessment!"
The next moment, new subtitles appeared on the token.
[The host's chosen challenge is to get first place in the shooting training assessment. This challenge has been determined to be D-level, a leapfrog challenge.]
[Completing the challenge will reward you with 50 general skill points or 1000 general proficiency points. Failure to complete the challenge will result in corresponding penalties.]
[Host, please confirm whether you accept the challenge of leapfrogging]
Xu Ge blinked: What the hell?
How did you come up with a challenge that goes beyond your level?
Does the system judge that getting first place in the training team assessment is more difficult than getting first place in an individual event in the battalion-level assessment?
But I think it’s much simpler?
No, no!
Xu Ge suddenly realized that the reason why he thought the content of this training camp was simple was because he had super rapid-fire skills, but in fact, this training camp was very difficult!
Just look at the reactions of the two top shooters, Kai Youmu and Li Dongshui.
All the new recruits who come here are the ones with the best performance in the shooting test in each recruit company. Defeating them actually means taking first place among the three recruit camps!
In other words, this is a group-level challenge!
So that’s how it is!
Xu Ge quickly figured out the reason and then smiled in his heart.
Damn, after being unlucky for so long, I finally got lucky!
1000 points of general proficiency is like picking it up for free, and you can directly stack LV3 skills to LV4!
So what are you waiting for?
This challenge of higher level must be accepted!
