Chapter 37: Only elementary schoolers do multiple-choice questions; I want them all!

Li Erniu ignored him, head down, loading bullets.

At this point, Li Erniu was no longer the rookie who, upon seeing a tank charge, would jump up in fright and want to run when he first enlisted; moreover, after over a year of getting along, his relationship with Wang Yanbing had already become that of trusted comrades.

Regarding Wang Yanbing, the guy who feels his mouth is wasted if he doesn't speak for a moment, although he wouldn't retort directly like He Chen Guang, ignoring him is still doable.

Seeing Li Erniu not taking the bait, Wang Yanbing didn't press further; after loading the bullets, he reinserted the magazine into the rifle, checked the safety, then held the rifle with his right hand, placing the gun body on his right side, muzzle tilted forward toward the sky, and stood at attention.

Once the three were all ready, Chen Shanming immediately stepped back a few steps, picked up the walkie-talkie and pressed the talk button: "Target trench, attention, shooting begins!"

Afterwards, he looked at He Chen Guang and the three, pointed with his hand to the three prone supported firing positions not far away, and commanded in a low voice: "To the first firing line, move out!"

He Chen Guang and the three again responded in unison, single-handedly holding their rifles, keeping muzzle direction unchanged, they marched in large steps to the firing positions, almost simultaneously dropping prone and bringing their rifles to bear, opening the safety in the prone sniper motion, pulling the bolt back to chamber a round, and waiting for the target to appear.

This time's shooting, the target is not an ordinary stationary target.

And Wang Yanbing scored a ninety, with one shot off target.

In one, one look `none, one wrong version%!'

Chen Shanming hoped in his heart that Liu Xiaotian would choose the Type 10 Sniper Rifle.

Wang Yanbing still hated the electronic real-time target verification after the improvements for the first time.

"Bang!" Li Erniu's gun was the second to fire.

Everyone's thought was basically the same: No wonder they're soldiers of the Sharpshooter Fourth Company, indeed formidable!

This, the three had already noticed.

Such shooting targets are quite practical for sniper training.

The appearance time usually does not exceed five seconds.

More propellant produces more gunpowder gas; naturally, as the gas pushes the bolt backward through the gas port, the impact force is greater, thus increasing the recoil.

Compared to Wang Yanbing's strong point, Li Erniu at least hit the target, although it was only a five.

The first to fire was naturally Wang Yanbing, who had been somewhat unable to hold back.

But unexpectedly, it was not a moving target, but a concealed-and-revealed target.

Perhaps in many people's impression, a former soldier who can score a hundred rings with ten shots in target practice is incredibly awesome.

However, Chen Shanming finally restrained himself; after ordering the three to put their guns away, he turned and glanced at the neatly lined-up remaining twenty-one soldiers, ultimately fixing his gaze on Liu Xiaotian:

In fact, to achieve this, as long as one's vision is fine, psychological quality is slightly better, and breathing is steady with no hand shake at the moment of pulling the trigger, anyone can do it.

Three seconds after the target appeared within his area of responsibility, his gun fired.

However, Li Erniu's and He Chen Guang's second shots were also tens.

"Bang!" A somewhat dull gunshot startled everyone present except Chen Shanming and the two soldiers responsible for issuing ammunition.

The so-called concealed-and-revealed target is one that appears irregularly, with uncertain intervals of several seconds, then disappears again.

A true marksman does not show off scores from shooting immobile targets.

Because a sniper's mission target will absolutely not be a stone lying there motionless for a long time, giving ample aiming time until a sure hit; moving targets are entry-level.

"Bang!" The last to fire the first shot was naturally He Chen Guang.

Although this sniper rifle is nominally mainly used for destroying important local facilities and some heavy weapons, if used to snipe a single target, it is also a great killer.

After all, a 12.7mm caliber, even if it hits the heel, can blow off a large chunk of flesh while also leaving the body disabled.

Ten rounds fired, He Chen Guang scored ninety-seven rings with no misses; Li Erniu scored ninety-three rings; all hit the target.

The so-called concealed-and-revealed target is one that appears and disappears intermittently.

This time, it was a ten! Apart from Liu Xiaotian, the twenty other soldiers collectively let out a low gasp.

Only by precisely locking onto the target and pulling the trigger within five seconds or even less can one be called a marksman.

Unfortunately, he missed.

Moreover, the recoil of the Type 10 Sniper Rifle, far exceeding that of the Type 88 Sniper Rifle, shocked his shoulder into a dull ache.

But next time it appears, it certainly won't be in the previous position.

Only concealed-and-revealed targets count as entering the hall.

As long as the deviation isn't especially large, even if aiming at the head but hitting the stomach, this 12.7mm caliber bullet is enough to kill the person shot! Know that being hit by such a caliber bullet, the wound after penetration might rival the mouth of a sea bowl! But Liu Xiaotian's response was completely beyond Chen Shanming's expectation.

This damn... the first shot missed, and there are two comparisons, this psychological pressure is not small! However, this guy's psychological quality is obviously good, his nerves are thick, and he didn't become especially tense because of it; about four seconds after the target appeared the second time, his gun fired first again.

"Report Instructor, can I... choose both?"

Moreover, due to sufficient preparation beforehand, Li Erniu was affected by recoil far less than Wang Yanbing.

If you don't believe it, if there are elders in your family or nearby who participated in that war decades ago, go ask them: which of them, when on the battlefield back then, could not hit a stationary target?

And it was a precise hit, a nine.

Large-caliber sniper rifles naturally have a much longer effective range. Naturally, the propellant load inside the cartridge case is also considerably greater.

"You, which rifle do you choose?"

Don't look at Wang Yanbing having one off-target shot; but judging by scores, he should even be considered the highest in shooting precision among the three! He Chen Guang: three nines, seven tens; Li Erniu: one five, two nines, seven tens; while Wang Yanbing, aside from one off-target shot, the remaining nine shots were all tens! No one noticed that, while this guy was happily checking his rifle and releasing the safety, standing up from the ground, Chen Shanming, standing seven or eight meters behind him, was gritting his teeth in secret, wishing to rush forward and kick this scoundrel to death! It's obvious his first shot was just showing off, to vie for firing first, without aiming properly.

Hearing Liu Xiaotian's words, Chen Shanming was obviously stunned for a moment, then returned to normal, lightly saying "As you wish", and gestured for someone to take the ammunition.

Just as Wang Yanbing had put his rifle back in place, he was startled by Liu Xiaotian's words, came over with a mysterious chuckle and said: "What are you up to? Take it easy, this is no time to show off!"

Although the words were a bit rough, Liu Xiaotian could tell that Wang Yanbing was worried he would embarrass himself in Chen Shanming's first training.

He smiled at Wang Yanbing and similarly replied in a low voice: "Don't worry, I'm confident!"
