Chapter Ninety-Eight: Range Training
"Okay, Comrade Sun Lei, I really haven't seen it, you kid is quite good. If you dare to be so ruthless in front of the company commander and instructor, are you sure that all the soldiers in your assault squad will be able to achieve excellent results in eight out of ten shots in the target shooting assessment three days later? ”
Not far from the conference room, Zhang Dake, the leader of the sharp knife squad, felt that Sun Lei's kid was simply crazy just now, and he asked Sun Lei who was walking next to him in a sneering tone.
Sun Lei could naturally easily hear the hostility and ridicule implied in Zhang Dake's question, and he did not refute at this time, but replied in a light tone: "Although I don't dare to make a 100% decision now, how can I know if I can't do it without trying." ”
At this time, Zhang Da was getting more and more unpleasant to Sun Lei, and the more he listened to what Sun Lei said, the more unpleasant he became, he immediately smiled coldly and said: "Hehe, okay, squad leader Sun, I want to see how you led the soldiers of your assault squad to conduct shooting training in these three days, let's see you at the shooting range tomorrow morning." ”
Regarding Zhang Dake's obviously provocative words, Sun Lei showed a rather disapproving look, and continued to say in a flat tone: "Okay, squad leader Zhang, let's see you at the shooting range tomorrow morning!" ”
Zhang Dake, who sniffed, saw that Sun Lei, who was standing side by side with him, didn't take him in his eyes at all, and suddenly, it made him feel even more angry and angry, and after he snorted coldly, he walked away quickly and walked towards the wooden house on the left.
Sun Lei, who was walking behind, couldn't help but shake his head while looking at Zhang Dake, who left him first, feeling that this Zhang Dake was so similar to the character of his original sharp knife squad leader Niu Tiezhu, it was simply two brothers who had miscalculated for many years.
After Zhang Dake, who was walking quickly, walked to a distance of about ten meters away, Sun Lei, who was strolling, turned around and rushed to the wooden house on the right.
I don't know how the accommodation of the third company of the sharp knife company was arranged, a total of four wooden houses, the company commander Zhao Yifa and the instructor Wang Wenju lived in the wooden house on the left side of the middle, with the soldiers of the cooking class, and several orderlies.
The other three wooden houses were originally given to the soldiers of the other three platoons, in a platoon unit, each row lived in a wooden house, the third row sat in the wooden house on the right in the middle, the second row sat in the rightmost wooden house, and the first row sat in the leftmost wooden house.
But the actual situation is that as an assault squad within the first platoon, it is crowded with the soldiers of the second platoon to sleep in the Chase Shop, which is planned by Zhang Dake, who is the leader of the sharp knife squad in a platoon, with the principle of doing a good job of unity and not causing trouble, Sun Lei had to obey this arrangement that made him a little embarrassed.
Early the next morning, after running and having breakfast, at about 8 o'clock in the morning, the soldiers of the three companies and one platoon of the Sharp Knife Company came to the shooting range belonging to their platoon and began shooting training.
It is said that it is a shooting range, but in fact, it is a large open space fifty meters north of the four wooden houses side by side, which is allocated as a temporary shooting range in a row.
There are a total of three squads in a platoon, one is the sharp knife squad, the second squad is the assault squad, and the third squad is the red flag squad, and the establishment of each squad is fifteen people, and if the platoon commander is counted together, there are about fifty people, which can be regarded as a reinforced platoon.
In view of the fact that 50 meters south of this natural temporary shooting range was the barracks of the third company of the Sharp Knife Company, Feng Kun, the leader of the first platoon, allocated the empty land on the east side of the shooting range to the first squad, and the two open spaces on the north and west sides were naturally assigned to the second and third squads respectively.
After all the places were allocated, Feng Kun, as the platoon commander, was only responsible for supervising the scene, and as for how the three squads under his command would conduct specific shooting training, they were given full authority to the other three squad leaders to formulate and implement.
In order to ensure safety, company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju issued a temporary notice, requiring that in the first two days of shooting training, only the squad leader and above cadres should be qualified to use bullets to shoot targets, and the amount of bullets used by each person per day should be controlled within 10 rounds.
Even on the third day of shooting training, everyone in the company could use bullets, but each person could use a maximum of 10 rounds a day.
The reason for this decision was made was that the logistical supply of the entire volunteer army was destroyed by the enemy, and the supply of weapons and ammunition was very tight, and the number of bullets used in the battle had to be controlled, let alone in shooting training.
Even so, it was company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju who applied to the leading comrades of the regiment headquarters early this morning.
Therefore, on the first morning of the shooting training, ordinary soldiers had no bullets available, which made Zhang Dake, as the leader of the first squad, feel quite dissatisfied with the temporary decision made by company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju.
As Zhang Dake, who used to be a shooter in the original army, he naturally understood that if he wanted to improve the shooting hit rate, he was fed with bullets, but there were no bullets available for training alone, so it was strange not to let him be secretly annoyed.
The shooting training on the first morning can be said to have stumped the entire Sharp Knife Company, but it did not stump Sun Lei, he did not complain about this, but quickly came up with a way when the soldiers in his squad had no bullets to fight.
Sun Lei asked the fifteen soldiers of the assault squad to stand in a row at a distance of one meter from each other, and lined up in a capital letter.
Not only did he keep the fighters in a shooting position, but he also hung a stone hanging from the front end of the rifle they held in their hands.
The size of the stone was the size of half a watermelon, and the weight was about five or six catties, so the soldiers kept this posture and stood for a whole hour before shouting to stop.
Let the fighters rest for fifteen minutes, and then continue to practice in this way.
On the other hand, staying in the same open space, the first and third squads located on the east and west sides, the two squad leaders coincided, and the soldiers also held the rifles in their hands and shot together.
Unlike the first squad led by Sun Lei, the soldiers of the first and third classes did not have a stone tied to the front of the rifle, so they trained dryly with a rifle without bullets.
After an hour came down, the soldiers of the second squad were all tired and panting and sweating profusely in this sunny and cold weather condition with a cold wind and a temperature of nearly minus 20 degrees.
Looking at the soldiers of the first and third squads, they stood stupidly for an hour in this large open space that was used as a temporary shooting range, but they were all shivering with cold, shivering all over, and their lips were purple from the cold.
All these situations on the shooting range were all seen by Feng Kun, as the platoon commander, as well as the company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju, who were standing in the distance with a telescope to observe.
