Chapter 207: Live-fire training

On August 15, the soldiers of the artillery corps gathered in a formation, and the solemnity of the faces of the soldiers could be seen.

Today's artillery unit will conduct live-fire training, which will be a day to test the results of the soldiers, and when Liu Gen announced that he would conduct live-fire training today, what brought the soldiers of the artillery company was not surprise, but fright. Even though the soldiers have improved a lot under the guidance of Liu Gen, the instructor, the soldiers still feel that they are much worse than Liu Gen, the instructor.

"Today we are going to have live-fire training, and in the almost ten days of training, everyone has improved a lot. And live shooting is to let everyone accurately see their own progress, and find out what still exists in themselves. Liu Gen said loudly.

Captain Niu looked at Liu Gen, quite satisfied, he could clearly see the changes in the soldiers of the artillery team. Under Liu Gen's training, the artillery fighters have improved a lot, both in their movements and in their preparation posture during the shelling.

And most importantly, the cooperation between the soldiers of the artillery team has improved a lot, and the most important thing for the artillery is cooperation. Captain Niu can imagine how much the combat effectiveness of the artillery team can be improved with enough tacit cooperation.

"Company Commander Liu is an instructor in our artillery team, and I can see that Company Commander Liu is quite attentive. Every day Company Commander Liu will patiently take you to train, on you, Company Commander Liu has spent a lot of energy, I hope that this live-fire training will not disappoint Company Commander Liu, nor will you disappoint yourself! Captain Niu stepped forward and said with anticipation.

The warriors, who were already a little dignified, became even more dignified at this time, and they could feel the heavy pressure coming. Cold sweat broke out in the palms of many soldiers, and they looked at Liu Gen and Captain Niu with a wry smile, not understanding why they were exerting such great pressure.

"Comrades, do you have confidence in yourself?" Captain Niu asked loudly.

"Yes!" The warriors roared.

Looking at the excited soldiers, Captain Niu nodded with satisfaction, he could see the solemnity of the soldiers, but he believed that the soldiers of the artillery team might be able to overcome it. If after training for so long and experiencing battles, these fighters could not withstand the pressure exerted by Liu Gen and him, then Captain Niu could only express his disappointment with these fighters.

"Excellent! Let's start preparing for each class! Each squad was responsible for a mortar, and this time we only used mortars for live-fire training. Captain Niu waved his hand and motioned for the soldiers to go and prepare.

The soldiers of the artillery team did not hesitate and acted quickly, and in the face of the pressure exerted on them by Liu Gen and Captain Niu, the soldiers were a little unsure in their hearts. In the eyes of the soldiers, this live-fire training will definitely not be simple, at least with their relationship with Liu Gen, the instructor, during this time, the soldiers can affirm this.

In training, Liu Gen is very strict with the soldiers, whenever a soldier can't bear it and wants to give up such training, you can see that Liu Gen easily made the requirements in the training. In the face of what Liu Gen did easily, the soldiers naturally couldn't continue to choose to give up.

What's more, Liu Gen said in the training that if he can't withstand this level of training, then he can directly choose to leave the artillery team. As a result, no matter how hard the training was, none of the fighters chose to leave the artillery team.

To be able to enter the artillery corps and become an artilleryman, every soldier of the artillery corps is quite good, and they are not willing to leave the artillery corps after they have trained for so long. Even if you want to leave the artillery team, you need to leave with honor, and you can't always return to your original unit, and when others ask why you left the artillery team, you can only say that you can't bear the training of the artillery team, and you will be regarded as a deserter by others.

None of the soldiers wanted to leave the artillery team, which made the soldiers of the artillery team grit their teeth and persist, and this time was the most painful and exciting time for them. Painfully, Liu Gen is extremely strict every day; What is exciting is that every day from Liu Gen, the fighters can learn something new, and the fighters can clearly feel their own improvement.

Ten minutes later, the soldiers placed the mortars they had taken in front of their squad, and seven 81mm mortars made it impossible for the soldiers of the artillery company to complete the live-fire training at one time.

At the same time, due to the large number of artillery units, one box of shells is still too small for the entire artillery team. It will be possible to use only one shot for all squads of the artillery team, and for more, it is impossible.

"Genzi, how much do you think the fighters can improve?" Looking at Liu Gen beside him, Captain Niu asked.

Liu Gen shook his head, he didn't know how far the fighters could go, but he was sure that the fighters would improve, but because everyone's level of effort was different, the improvement they could get was different.

"I think these bastards will improve a lot, and in their daily training, these bastards are not lazy. The most important thing is that they have you as an instructor to teach, and they will naturally improve quickly. Captain Niu said with some optimism.

During this time, Captain Niu has been observing the training of the soldiers, he can see the seriousness of the soldiers, and he also knows that Liu Gen, the instructor, is not easy. In order to be able to do a good job in the training of the artillery soldiers, Liu Gen rested late every night, which was seen by Captain Niu.

Now Captain Niu's heart is full of expectations, he really hopes to see the performance of the fighters improve significantly, and his eyes fall on the fighters who are about to start operating the mortar, hoping that these soldiers will not let him down.

The fighters of the first squad operate mortars, and their movements are quite proficient, and they can see that they are not lazy in their daily training, and even say that they may have their own training. From Liu Gen's order to the time when a squad of soldiers found the target and the shells were fired, it took less than ten seconds.

Such a speed is very fast, after all, it takes a certain amount of time to find a target, and it also takes a certain amount of time to operate a mortar to calculate the corresponding firing angle. Being able to complete it in ten seconds is already very satisfying to Liu Gen and Captain Niu.

Liu Gen looked at the location of the first group of targets, and the joy in his eyes dissipated, "Hit the area where the target is located, and the error is eight meters!" ”

"Eight meters?" The fighters of the first squad fell silent, the distance of eight meters was not counted, but it was not close either. In the past, if they could have scored such a result in the first shot, then the soldiers would have been able to cheer, but now in the face of Liu Gen's instructor's gaze, the soldiers of the group lowered their heads and couldn't laugh at all.

"The second shift continues! Don't waste time. Liu Gen's somewhat cold voice sounded, making the soldiers of the second class look awe-inspired!

“……”

The live-fire training continued, but there was not the slightest joy on the faces of the soldiers, only silent silence.
