Mantra

Chapter 264
The two armies confronted each other, thinking about aiming their guns. After an order from our company commander, Wang Hou and I started shooting 30 rounds of bullets, one shot at a time, and shooting "gambling guns" at a target of [-] meters!
After the firing order was issued, Wang Hou didn't shoot. I ignored him. After firing the burst, he fired first.

On the other side of the target paper, after I shot a shot, the reporter raised the chess piece and played a chess piece with nine rings.

Nine rings, this is a good result.

Wang Hou glanced at me, then lowered his head and shot quickly.

After the sound, the target announcer stretched out the chess piece, kept swinging it up and down, and told everyone that Wang Hou also hit a nine ring.

I smiled coldly, knowing that Wang Hou was really following the target!
In fact, Wang Hou gave me a lot of face, and this is also one of the special skills of the scouting company to "show off" marksmanship. When they compete with opponents who are far weaker than themselves, they often adopt the strategy of "following the target".

The so-called following the target, that is, I don’t take the initiative to shoot, but after I shoot a shot, he also shoots a shot. He is a really capable soldier king. He can basically do a few rounds of me, and he will pay back. A few rings, even if I hit that direction, others will hit that direction.It's just that in the last shot, Wang Hou would shoot a little more than me by one or two rings.

The target hit by this method is first of all very face-saving for the opponent, because everyone has about the same number of rings. Even if Wang Hou wins, he is only one or two rings ahead of me, so it won't embarrass me, and if he really wants to Speaking of which, I can even brazenly tell others that I am only one or two rings behind the "Scout King". Of course, I am not that shameless.

Secondly, this kind of target shooting is also a kind of show off, because everyone knows that it is not a problem for me to shoot a target, no matter how many rings, but it takes a lot of practice and talent to "follow the target" with me like Wang Hou up.

To put it bluntly, this "following the target" is actually the ability and confidence of a cat playing with a mouse.This is clearly telling me and our company commander Wang Hou that we are releasing water!
But Wang Hou never thought that if he put too much water, he would easily drown himself.

And what I have to do is to drown Wang Hou!

So, I continued to shoot without distraction, the bullets shot out of my rifle one by one, seven rings, eight rings, nine rings, five rings... and Wang Hou also closely followed my shooting rhythm, non-stop Say seven rings, eight rings, nine rings, five rings.

Finally, the last bullet!
At this time, the number of rings shot by me and Wang Hou is exactly the same. If the two target papers are taken down, I even think that those holes can be roughly overlapped together to form two mirror-like overlapped bodies.

However, I don't have time to praise Wang Hou's exquisite marksmanship, because right now, I'm waiting for the final shot!

When there was only one bullet left, I suddenly stopped shooting, held my breath, and opened my closed left eye.

I was watching, looking at the red land between the shooting ranges, looking at the only two dogtail grasses on the red land.

In the morning sun, the two grasses did not move, and neither did I.

Just like that, time was almost at a standstill. I didn't shoot, and Wang Hou didn't shoot either. Everyone stared at me, completely unaware of what I was planning.

They know that even if I can hit the tenth ring, at best, I will be a tie with Wang Hou. In private, people still have to say that Wang Hou let me go, that Wang Hou used the method of "following the gun" to show himself skill.

But... I can't let him say that, let alone embarrass my old squad leader!
So, when the foxtail on the shooting range was shaking slightly, I shot resolutely!

After the gunshot, the target announcer was the first to report back the information.

"1st Ring!" The company commander holding a binoculars scolded me: "Tian Fuer! Are you angry with your eyes? You can do that too! Go back and clean all the toilets in the company."

Amid my company commander's violent voice, Wang Hou shook his head slightly, then he raised his gun, took aim, and fired.

After the sound of "touch", the scout company was ready to laugh at me, and the long monkey scratched its head, as if ready to ridicule me and my company at any time.

Afterwards, the target caller raised the red flag in his hand and reported the result of Wang Hou's last shot!

"That's the .0 ring! Wang Hou missed the target! Tian Fuji won?! He actually won!" Lian Lian raised his binoculars, hardly believing his eyes.

But, that's the truth.Wang Hou missed the target.With this shot, he didn't hit a ring.

After completing all the actions, I unloaded the magazine, stood up, turned around and saluted, and reported to the company commander and squad leader: "Soldier Tian Fuji of the cooking squad has finished shooting the target! Please give instructions!"

This sentence is declaring my own victory, and it is also publicly slapping the reconnaissance company in the face.

The only answer to me at that moment was silence.

Completely, no one thought that I, a cook in the cooking class, would win the impossible "gambling gun" with a one-ring advantage, and Wang Hou's last bullet missed the target.

I know that the reason for the current situation is thanks to my "main shooting range"!Thanks to my old squad leader's previous explanation.

Just before the shooting, my squad leader told me the many ways and tricks of shooting in the army.

He first said to me: "Strictly speaking, there are two types of target shooting, one is called the main target, and the other is called the guest target."

I shoot targets on our company’s ground, which is called the main target, and Wang Hou shoots targets on the familiar grounds, which is called the guest target.

People who hit the target will have many disadvantages because they are not familiar with the venue.

For example, the general shooting range is east-west, because this can simulate the natural environment to the greatest extent, and is conducive to imitating the light and shadow feeling during battle.However, due to the limitation of the terrain, our shooting range is made into a north-south shape. This kind of production may affect people's performance in a specific environment.

And I also know that our shooting range is far from as simple as Wang Hou imagined.

When my old squad leader was in the kitchen, he told me that this shooting range used to be a random graveyard, and it was the land where the ancients chose a barren graveyard, and they were very particular and knowledgable.Naturally, the shooting range remodeled from the random graveyard has some ghost aura to some extent!
In ancient times, people with good conditions would choose a place with mountains facing water and wind from east to west, and those with poor conditions would choose the ancestral land of burial mounds, facing the light to the south. Choose a place to bury, because if you bury it indiscriminately, the land will be corrupted, and people who die of the plague will be easily dug out by wolf dogs, and it will also infect the surrounding villages.

Therefore, most of the mass graves will be built on a kind of land called corpse collection ground.
