Soldiers' Assault: Veteran Special Agents and New Recruits

Chapter 160 A Unique Treasure in the World (Second Update)

With Qi Huan bringing 20 members of the Ace of Spades to work, the biggest problem of manpower shortage was solved, and the Ace of Spades team was finally freed.

The happiest among them were the eight reserve team members, who were finally able to escape from their nightmare.

After a week of intense loading, the eight reserve team members were truly exhausted. They felt like they had Parkinson's disease every day, with their hands shaking non-stop.

What does it mean to be so tired that you get muscle cramps?

This is!

The Ace of Spades squad doesn't need to stop and waste training time helping the reserve team load ammunition; they can fully concentrate on training.

At this moment, the number of people under Jackie Chan's special training instructor reached as many as 43.

They have more responsibilities than even Yuan Lang, the squadron leader.

He unwittingly became the officer in the entire Third Squadron with the most subordinates.

wrong.

He should have the most soldiers under his command.

The logistical work was effectively resolved, miscellaneous tasks were handled by designated personnel, and the training results of the Ace of Spades improved at a visible rate.

The Hellfire tactics are becoming increasingly sophisticated, and their ferocity and dominance during the completion phase are already beginning to show.

In the blink of an eye.

A week has passed.

The pilot training has now reached its 67th day.

The skilled repair shop lived up to expectations and finally completed the production task from scratch. The shop's director personally led a team to deliver simulated paintball guns and paintballs to the long-awaited Ace of Spades team.

The entire truck was loaded with tarpaulins and unloaded into the garage where the Killing House was located.

The Ace of Spades team, the reserve team, and even Qi Huan and 20 other constables all excitedly ran over to admire the world's first batch of professional simulated paintball guns.

The scene was even more lively than during the Chinese New Year!

Qi Huan had only heard that the Ace of Spades team was amazing, and that the tactics taught by Jackie Chan were the most cutting-edge in the world, with most of them being special operations techniques that were appearing for the first time in China.

Now, I'm participating as a general helper, giving me the opportunity to experience it firsthand.

I just realized that.

The Ace of Spades team not only has cutting-edge training techniques, but even their training equipment is custom-made.

Moreover, it's the only one of its kind in the world.

Qi Huan and his group's impression of training guns was entirely based on the simulated equipment used in exercises, which relied on lasers and laser receivers to generate signals.

The gun was loaded with blanks; there was only sound, but nothing came out.

When you hit someone with that thing, you feel absolutely nothing.

There's no trajectory, no impact point, and the feel is terrible.

Jackie Chan's newly developed paintball guns come with specially designed paintballs with projectiles, making them incredibly easy to fire at close range.

It felt like killing the enemy with a real gun.

The person who is hit will also have a good feeling, with obvious pain, but no physical injury.

With such peculiar training equipment, Qi Huan was practically dragging his buttocks down with a knife—

This is eye-opening!

Jackie Chan, along with a group of "curious kids," checked and confirmed that the bullet structure was the same as his design, and then happily prepared to find a human target to test it out.

"Xu Sanduo, don't move, turn your back to me."

Jackie Chan first targeted Xu Sanduo, making this cowardly and timid member of the team feel what it's like to be hit by a bullet.

"No, don't hit me, I'm afraid of pain."

Xu Sanduo was so frightened that he shrank his neck and covered his head, looking like a turtle, which made everyone burst into laughter.

"Sweetie, don't move, it'll be over in a minute, it won't hurt."

Jackie Chan got playful and deliberately teased Xu Sanduo by shooting him in the buttocks a few times, leaving several red spots.

Hearing the gunshots, Xu Sanduo screamed in fright.

But only a short while later!

"Hey, it doesn't hurt much, hehe, it doesn't hurt."

Xu Sanduo rubbed his bruised buttocks, grinned, and showed off his big white teeth with a silly smile.

Seeing how much fun Jackie Chan was having, Tuo Yonggang also picked up a 95-style paintball rifle and prepared to load a box of paintballs into the magazine.

Before they could even start loading paintballs, Jackie Chan's reminder interrupted them.

"These bullets are not the kind you used to fire. The bullets are specially made paintballs with a lower hardness. You must be careful when loading them. Also, each paintball is hand-rolled and is very precious. No one is allowed to use them carelessly except during training."

"..."

Jackie Chan's words struck at Tuo Yonggang's Achilles' heel.

"I protest! I strongly protest this discriminatory treatment and bureaucratic practices. How come you can use it and fire at will, but I can't?"

Tuo Yonggang grumbled like a wronged woman, but he didn't dare to raise his voice, for fear that Jackie Chan would hear him.

He still lingered, reluctant to part with the gun!

The other team members who were also ready to try out the guns all fell silent upon hearing Jackie Chan's instructions, and had no choice but to give up their ideas.

After all, everyone knows in their hearts that what Jackie Chan said was the truth.

Compared to the way we've been using bullets by the box, this time we start each game with a dozen or so ammo boxes, firing off 20,000 bullets in no time.

The two boxes of ammunition delivered by the repair shop only contain a maximum of 3000 rounds, which is indeed not enough.

If we don't use it sparingly...

It was completed in two hours.

Just as everyone was enjoying the new guns, Yuan Lang and Captain Tie Lu also rushed over after hearing the news, wanting to personally experience the world's first batch of simulated paintball guns.

"Attention, everyone! Good morning, Captain!"

Qi Huan was the first to notice the battalion commander approaching, and he stood up and saluted loudly.

Other students, including Jackie Chan, stood at attention and saluted to greet the captain.

"Just do whatever you want, whatever you're supposed to do."

Battalion Commander Tie Lu casually waved his hand and then eagerly ran to the middle of the ammunition pile.

"Is this gun really safe?"

Captain Railway was playing with a Type 95 paintball gun, unable to see any difference between it and a normal gun, and asked Jackie Chan curiously.

"Absolutely safe."

Jackie Chan took out a live bullet to demonstrate, put it into the magazine, loaded it onto the gun, pulled the bolt to chamber a bullet, and shouted to the troops, "Xu Sanduo, step forward."

"yes!"

Xu Sanduo was slow to react and didn't know what to do, so he quickly ran out.

"About turn!"

Jackie Chan gave the order again, and Xu Sanduo did as he was told.

Then Jackie Chan pointed the gun at Xu Sanduo, and under the fearful and worried gazes of Captain Tielu and the others, he pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"Clang~"

The sound of a gun bolt striking.

The bullet was not fired.

"Xu Sanduo, let's go back."

"yes!"

Xu Sanduo, whose mind was always a beat slow to react, hadn't even figured out what had just happened before he happily ran back into the crowd.

"What's going on? Didn't you load the needle?" Captain Tie Lu stared in disbelief.

"Of course there is. This is a modified paintball gun. We'll be using it for paintball training later. Without a gun needle, it's just a useless gun," Jackie Chan laughed.

"How did you do that?" Captain Railway pressed.

"That kid is cunning."

Yuan Lang joked, took the gun from Jackie Chan's hand, pulled the bolt to unload the bullet, and pointed to the bullet's rear end, saying, "Captain, look at the impact point of this gun needle. It's on the outer ring of the bullet's base, completely different from standard-issue guns."

When Jackie Chan was designing these paintball guns, he deliberately made the gun needles crooked, changing them from a centrally located needle to an offset needle.

It can only hit the outer ring of the base; the live bullet's muzzle is in the very center, so it won't fire if placed inside.

"Haha, what a brilliant idea! To think of such a way, Jackie Chan, you've really surprised me."

Captain Tie Lu took the bullet from Yuan Lang's hand and looked at the small indentation on the outer circle of the bullet base. It was two or three millimeters away from the spark in the middle. This was a safe enough distance that even an accident could not happen. He couldn't help but praise it repeatedly.

Then, out of curiosity, he asked, "If the needle is crooked, it can indeed prevent accidents from happening. During training, you don't have to worry about being accidentally injured."

"But isn't this gun supposed to fire paintballs? How do you fire those paintballs?"

Captain Tie Lu had been handling guns his whole life, and his thinking had become rigid. He believed that the bullet's muzzle was right in the middle, so he didn't react at all.

"The paintball design is even more ingenious."

Yuan Lang took out a box of paintballs wrapped in kraft paper, took one out and gave it to the captain, saying, "The gun needle is crooked, and Jackie Chan also messed up the spark plug on the base, making it the outer ring of the base."

"Absolutely brilliant, simply exquisite."

The captain was deeply impressed. His nearly 50-year-old mind felt a bit out of touch with the times. He clicked his tongue in amazement and exclaimed, "This paintball gun design is ingenious! Jackie Chan, how did you come up with that?"

"I didn't really think about it much. It's mainly because I'm smart. Others might have to think for ages, but I can figure it out in no time," Jackie Chan said seriously.

"..."

The railway captain was speechless, and the bystanders were collectively petrified.

Is there anyone who's so seriously pretentious?

Pretending is one thing.

Jackie Chan actually got caught on.

Everyone in the audience thought Jackie Chan was showing off, using his hard skills to show off, but only Jackie Chan himself knew very well that it had nothing to do with showing off.

I simply don't know how to explain it.

You can't exactly say that he played with paintball guns in his past life and is just copying what he learned now, can you?

That definitely won't work!

Instead of racking your brains to come up with a bunch of excuses and then piecing them together into a story, which turns out to have loopholes and make others suspicious.

It would be better to use the most direct method to eradicate the problem and shut everyone present up.

I have a high IQ and a lot of creative ideas, so I can design.

What can you do with me?

Throughout history, so many inventors have invented things using their intelligence. Isn't it normal for Jackie Chan to be a little smarter?

Absolutely perfect!

Captain Railway assumed Jackie Chan didn't want to reveal anything, considering it a matter of personal privacy, so he didn't press the matter further. With considerable interest, he picked up his gun and said, "Do you have any targets here? I'll try them out and see how they work."

"Targets? Of course there are."

After Jackie Chan finished speaking, he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Xu Sanduo, step forward!"

"Oh? It's me again."

Xu Sanduo felt like crying but had no tears left to shed.

Paintball guns don't hurt much when they hit people, but that doesn't mean they don't hurt when they hit you.

But Jackie Chan's order had already been given, and no matter how "sad" Xu Sanduo felt, he could only accept his bad luck and obediently leave the ranks.

"Are you going to hit someone?" Captain Tie Lu asked in astonishment.
