Soldiers' Assault: Veteran Special Agents and New Recruits

Chapter 241 Gao Cheng suffered a crushing defeat this time! (Please subscribe)

Gao Cheng was familiar with Cheng Cai's marksmanship when they participated in a live-fire mountain combat exercise.

Cheng Cai was the one who secured the first kill for the Steel Seventh Company.

Since Jackie Chan arranged for Cheng Cai to participate in the competition, and Cheng Cai was indeed a sniper, even though he hadn't practiced shooting for a year, Gao Cheng stopped saying anything.

He shouted at the top of his lungs, "Communications officer, where's the gun I told you to prepare? Bring it here right now!"

"OK!"

Upon receiving the order, the communications officer got up, called the armorer, and ran to a nearby vehicle.

A short while later.

The communications officer, carrying two Type 88 sniper rifles in each hand, and the armorer, holding a box full of magazines, ran up to Gao Cheng in a flash.

Strictly speaking, the Type 88 sniper rifle cannot be considered a sniper rifle; it is more accurately described as a precision shooting rifle.

but.

In 99, when all industries were waiting to be developed, it was already the best long-range shooting rifle in the country, and it would be perfectly acceptable to call it a sniper rifle.

"How are these guns?" Gao Cheng asked.

"The gun has been calibrated, it's incredibly accurate," the armorer said confidently.

"This one is for you."

Gao Cheng tossed the gun at Cheng Cai from a distance, his face still cold and emotionless, but his actions revealed that the resentment in his heart was melting away.

Cheng Cai reached out and easily caught it.

Working in the mess hall every day, responsible for chopping and washing vegetables, did not cause Cheng Cai's personal skills to decline significantly; in fact, they even improved slightly compared to before.

It is evident that Cheng Cai must have secretly been practicing extra skills during his time in the cooking squad.

"Hu Yanhua!"

Gao Cheng picked up another 88 sniper rifle and called out a name in the team.

"arrive!"

It was a corporal who stood up.

He wasn't very tall, maybe 1.7 meters at most, and he was quite thin, very lean. However, his eyes were very bright.

His bright, piercing eyes alone are enough to justify Gao Cheng's trust in his marksmanship.

"Wow, he does look pretty good. He's got the makings of a sharpshooter. No wonder the company commander was so confident. Turns out there really is a master here," Jackie Chan thought to himself in surprise.

"Step forward."

"yes!"

Gao Cheng gave the order, and Hu Yanhua jogged over and took the second sniper rifle.

"For our first match, let's start with a nighttime shooting exercise under artificial light, right there in that open area. Are you okay with that?"

Gao Cheng pointed to the open space behind the red flag, which was blocked by a wall, and asked Jackie Chan.

"Company commander, you're in charge. We'll cover for you. We're not going to lose anyway," Jackie Chan said confidently with a smile.

"Okay, it's good to be confident, haha."

Gao Cheng liked Jackie Chan's straightforwardness, and shouted to the cars on both sides: "Send a few people to turn on all the headlights."

Several other soldiers ran out and switched the car's low beam headlights to high beam.

brush brush...

The venue suddenly became very bright!

"How is it? Is there a problem with this level of difficulty?" Gao Cheng asked Cheng Cai.

This was the first time Gao Cheng had looked Cheng Cai in the eye since they met, which made the usually apprehensive Cheng Cai much calmer. He smiled and said, "It's not easy to fight in the dark with light, but I'll give it a try."

"Chengcai, you can do it! I believe in you. You're a sharpshooter!" Xu Sanduo encouraged him from the side.

"Cheng Cai... he does seem to have changed."

In his memory, Cheng Cai was a very competitive person who would never hide his abilities if he could show them. Seeing Cheng Cai so humble all of a sudden was a real surprise to Gao Cheng.

I was stunned for several seconds.

Only then did she realize what was happening and asked Hu Yanhua, "Do you think there's a problem?"

"Report: No."

Hu Yanhua answered with great confidence.

"Then let's go."

Now Gao Cheng felt even more confident and beckoned everyone to head towards the competition field behind the Red Flag Platform.

Jackie Chan and Xu Sanduo were still very confident, following Gao Cheng to the competition venue. Bai Tiejun, Ma Xiaoshuai, and the other two were not optimistic about Cheng Cai, and even hoped that he would lose.

The soldiers of the reconnaissance battalion were typical bystanders, all grabbing their drinks and crowding around.

"Fire right here, right on this line."

Gao Cheng led the people to the competition location, stopping about twenty meters away from the wall.

He then called on two soldiers and said, "Xiao Shuai, Xiao Ning, you two go and get a few cases of wine bottles, and move them to the left and right sides of the front wall to prepare."

"We'll shoot at aerial targets. When I tell you to throw, just throw it at an angle."

"yes!"

Upon receiving the order, Ma Xiaoshuai and Gan Xiaoning quickly ran back to the dinner table.

There aren't many other things tonight, but we have a lot of empty wine bottles. There are hundreds of them throughout the venue, enough to use however we want.

The two quickly grabbed a box of empty bottles each and ran to the designated spot that Gao Cheng had mentioned.

"The method of the competition is very simple. Two people will throw empty bottles over there, and you two will try to throw them. Whoever breaks more bottles wins."

After briefly explaining the competition rules, Gao Cheng said to Bai Tiejun beside him, "Come on, let's begin."

"Prepare to fire!" Bai Tiejun gave the order.

Hu Yanhua immediately assumed a standing shooting posture, with the butt of the sniper rifle on her shoulder, aiming at the area in front of her, pulling the bolt to chamber a round, and adjusting the fire selector to single shot.

Cheng Cai, however, did not use the buttstock to support his shoulder; instead, he used a low-position holding posture when loading the gun.

"Hey, you've been in the mess hall for a year, looks like you haven't forgotten what you were taught," Jackie Chan thought to himself with amusement.

Cheng Cai was the first to learn from Jackie Chan, starting from childhood, much earlier than the Ace of Spades Commando. He learned all kinds of shooting knowledge.

Therefore, Cheng Cai did not participate in the pilot special training, and he also learned the shooting skills and gun-holding posture that only Jackie Chan knew.

Gao Cheng had never learned this kind of preparatory posture before, nor could he understand what kind of strange posture it was, but since it was a competition, he couldn't say anything.

Bai Tiejun gave it a strange look, then looked away and gave the order: "Begin!"

As Bai Tiejun gave the command, Gan Xiaoning, standing on the left, grabbed a beer bottle and hurled it forcefully into the night sky.

The beer bottle spun in the air and flew more than ten meters away in the blink of an eye.

Hu Yanhua lived up to her reputation as the first place winner in the division's shooting competition. Her reaction speed was extremely fast, her movements were very standard, and she locked onto the target in the first instant.

Just as he was about to fire.

"Snap!"

"Splash!"

A gunshot rang out nearby, and the bottle shattered.

Cheng Cai, who had his gun hanging down and seemed unprepared, actually aimed and fired first, hitting the bottle precisely.

This struck Hu Yanhua as incredible, and she deliberately turned her head to glance at Cheng Cai.

After Cheng Cai fired a shot, he lowered the muzzle of his gun slightly, unlike the others who kept their guns in a straight line.

He couldn't understand how such a strange posture could be so efficient.

It can only be attributed to luck!

Driven by an indomitable spirit, Hu Yanhua focused even more intently, determined to smash all the bottles in the next round.

Let the elite A unit of the entire army know how formidable his reconnaissance soldiers are.

The person involved was startled, which aroused a strong competitive spirit. Gao Cheng and others who were watching were also stunned by Cheng Cai's strange marksmanship.

They couldn't understand Cheng Cai's gun-holding movements, let alone how he aimed so quickly.

Even Xu Sanduo didn't understand; he only knew how to use it.

Only the creator of these technologies, at least in this era, Jackie Chan, knows why Jackie Chan can hit so fast and accurately.

to be honest.

It's a combination of talent and skill, a double effect.

The low-positioned gun-holding stance is a ready stance, and it allows for quick reactions in CQB operations because the field of vision increases after lowering the gun.

You can spot the enemy faster, allowing you to aim your gun earlier and make up for the time it takes to raise your weapon.

Especially in scenarios like shooting at flying targets, where the bottles fly up from the ground, the advantage of holding the gun from a low position is greatly enhanced.

Cheng was able to begin aiming his sniper rifle the moment the bottle left his hand and lock onto the bottle's trajectory the entire time.

By the time the bottle was airborne, Cheng Cai had already aimed. All that was left was to fire and smash the bottle.

This is the huge advantage that a broader perspective brings to success.

In contrast, Hu Yanhua was perfectly positioned with his gun in a straight line, and the lower half of his field of vision was completely blocked, so he couldn't see anything at all.

It's like the bottle being released from the ground and flying into the air; Hu Yanhua couldn't see this part at all.

If you can't see the bottle, you can't predict it in advance.

The speed will actually be slower!

In addition, Cheng Cai was born with a talent for shooting. His mind returned from being impetuous to being calm, which allowed his marksmanship to not decline but to improve.

And in a calm state of mind, he found the gun feel that only top masters possess.

Under the influence of gun-like sensation...

The moment Cheng Cai picked up the Type 88 sniper rifle, it ceased to be a gun; it became an extension of his arm.

At this shooting distance of less than 30 meters, you don't even need to aim with your eyes to hit a bottle.

Look carefully, feel with your senses.

That's enough!

With his combined advantages in technique and talent, the entire competition turned into a solo show by Cheng Cai, leaving all the soldiers of the reconnaissance battalion dumbfounded.

There was absolutely no suspense.

In the second wave, two bottles flew up at once, and Ma Xiaoshuai and Gan Xiaoning each lost one.

"Slap! Slap!"

Two gunshots rang out, and two bottles shattered.

Cheng Cai smashed them all!

"What the hell is this??? Does this old A (Special A) not even need to draw lines when he fires a shot?"

Hu Yanhua hadn't even seen the bottle before it shattered in mid-air, making it impossible for him to aim and shoot.

Realizing it wasn't luck at all, it became incomprehensible.

"Has this been a year since he last fired a shot?"

The intensity of Gao Cheng's emotions at this moment was like a stampede of ten thousand alpacas.

Not to mention the other reconnaissance soldiers who were watching.

Their marksmanship was far inferior to Hu Yanhua's; Cheng Cai's superb shooting skills seemed like magic to them at that moment.

They couldn't understand it at all, but they felt it was very impressive.

"Great, great, absolutely great. I never thought that spending a year in the mess hall would actually develop a feel for guns. It's truly a blessing in disguise. Only with a feel for guns can one become a true sniper."

Jackie Chan analyzed Cheng Cai's performance and concluded that Cheng Cai had grasped the feel of a gun, and he was happy for him.

however.

The shock continues!

"Clap clap clap clap..."

"Splash, splash, splash..."

Bottles flew into the air and were precisely shattered by bullets.

Whether you throw two bottles at the same time, or even throw four bottles at once with both hands, they will be smashed quickly and won't survive a second.

And almost all of them were hit by Cheng Cai.

Hu Yanhua only managed to hit two bottles by chance when Cheng Cai was reloading, as the Type 88 sniper rifle magazine only had 10 bullets left.

In the end, both boxes of bottles were thrown down, and the disparity in results between the two sides was so stark it was almost painful to look at.
