My Military Career in a Parallel World

Chapter 134 Absolutely fast and relatively accurate!

Han Li, who once served as the second assaulter, and Hu Kai, a prisoner capturer, were two veteran soldiers whose performance in the 30-shot rapid shooting at the 100-meter chest ring target was at most on par with Jiang Chen.

You know, these two are veterans who have been in the army for more than five years. The fact that Jiang Chen, a new recruit, can be compared with them is very telling.

"You did a good job and didn't embarrass me!" After Jiang Chen checked the gun, turned off the safety and stood up, Li Gang walked over with a smile and patted him on the shoulder.

"Hehe, it's all because of your good teaching, squad leader!" Jiang Chen also replied with a smile.

He was not being modest, but the squad leader Li Gang really taught him a lot. There were many knowledge and skills that a new recruit should not be exposed to, and Li Gang did not keep them to himself.

Not only Jiang Chen, but everyone else in Class 5 is the same.

This is why Class 5 is famous for its good atmosphere of unity in the entire recruit company, and it is also the reason why Li Gang can often lead good soldiers when he becomes the squad leader in the recruit company.

"Haha, teaching is one thing, but being able to learn is your own ability, there's no need to be modest!"

"Yes, monitor!"

Jiang Chen did not refute, but silently took note of it in his heart and would repay it when he had the chance in the future.

Tang Junjie, who was standing next to them, heard the conversation between the two and was not surprised.

Li Gang has always been like this.

The Third Company was able to compete with the Police Detective Company despite being out-equipped and out-supplied, so Li Gang should be credited for this first.

He made it all the way to the end of the special forces training but was eliminated. After coming back, he taught the skills/concepts he learned from the special forces to others without reservation.

Some things can only be used by special forces, but some things are common to all soldiers.

Before Li Gang went to the special forces training, whether it was a reconnaissance battalion or an ordinary company, their shooting concepts were the same.

Pursue accuracy!

In that period, if you didn't get 300 rings out of 30 bullets, you would be embarrassed to brag to others about your great shooting skills.

However, after Li Gang came back from the special forces training, he completely changed everyone's pursuit of accuracy.

The one who fires first is king!

The shooting concept of absolute speed and relative accuracy gradually replaced the original shooting concept.

To date, the entire reconnaissance battalion and the police detective company that has fought with the reconnaissance battalion many times after its restoration have become practitioners of this concept.

People are no longer obsessed with accuracy, but instead demand the fastest shooting speed while ensuring a certain level of accuracy.

The reconnaissance company's thirty-round rapid fire at the 100-meter chest ring target and the reserved items during the A Battalion's training are both extensions of the concept of absolutely fast and accurate shooting.

Even when teaching new recruits, Li Gang did not forget to popularize this concept to them.

Although the recruits only had five bullets when shooting, and the shooting concept of absolute speed and relative accuracy was of no benefit to them and might even affect their final results, Li Gang did not throw the baby out with the bathwater.

He said the same thing to all the new recruits in Class 5.

I don’t know about other people, but Jiang Chen has always been pursuing and practicing this concept.

Because, as a time traveler, he knew that the shooting concept of 'absolutely fast, relatively accurate' would be popularized in all troops in the near future.

Training continues.

After what happened just now, Jiang Chen could clearly feel that Tang Junjie's attitude towards him had changed, and he started to talk more.

"Although the rapid shooting time is thirty seconds, but look at them..." Tang Junjie pointed to Class 2 who were also training nearby.

"Emptying the magazine in 30 seconds without missing the target is just the basics. You need to increase your speed as much as possible while ensuring accuracy."

There were still four magazines with 120 bullets left. Jiang Chen took out a full magazine from his waist and replaced it, then tried to fire again according to what Tang Junjie said.

Five bullets. Jiang Chen was used to firing five bullets, and suddenly increasing the speed made him a little uncomfortable.

Seven out of thirty bullets were not controlled well and fell outside the seventh ring.

"Don't be so embarrassed. A new recruit can achieve such a result at this speed. What else do you want? You must get ten rings for every shot!"

"No, I'm just thinking about how to adjust it." Jiang Chen said without turning his head while looking at the ballistic trajectory on the target paper with a telescope.

Looking at his serious expression, and then looking back at the two people who were talking in a low voice after shooting, Tang Junjie suddenly felt a toothache.

Look at him, then look at you two. No wonder you were beaten to a pulp by a new recruit.

One hundred and fifty bullets sounded like a lot, but with this shooting method, it didn't take long before the four magazines Jiang Chen had inserted into his waist were emptied.

After returning to the team, not only Tang Junjie, but everyone else's attitude towards Jiang Chen changed.

"Brother, your shooting skills are great!" Hu Kai gave him a thumbs up and praised him.

"How about learning sniping from me? It just so happens that I'm just short of an observer!" Sniper Zhang Ming also said with a smile.

"Get out! He's my man now." Without waiting for Jiang Chen to speak, Tang Junjie cursed first, then pulled Jiang Chen away.

"Don't listen to him. You are so good at fighting and shooting. It would be a waste if you don't become an assaulter. Sniper rifles are just so-so. There is nothing fun about them!"

Tang Junjie knew very well how lethal the word "sniper" could be to new recruits.

After waiting for so long, we finally found a promising attacker. We can’t let him be poached.

As I said, the military camp is, after all, a place where the strong are respected.

The only difference between new recruits and veterans is the length of their service.

The most fundamental reason why new recruits are bullied is that they are weak and the old soldiers are strong, so they are bullied.

If you demonstrate your strength and perform as well as the veterans or even better, they will feel ashamed and even be reprimanded or punished for it. However, they will change their views and attitudes and no longer regard you as a new recruit.

Whether it is Han Li, Zhang Ming, Fang Zheng, or even Su Yu and Lu Xingwang.

Even though he had suffered a loss at the hands of Jiang Chen more than an hour ago and was fined three and a half hundred, when Jiang Chen showed his strength, everyone, including him, tacitly stopped calling Jiang Chen "newbie".

This is the reality in the army.

"Why are you laughing so hard? A first-term NCO is worse than a private, and you still have the nerve to laugh!"

As soon as Fang Zheng smiled, he was caught by Li Gang. Needless to say, he started to scold him immediately.

"Look at him, a private who has just started rapid fire can achieve such a result. Look at you, you have wasted tens of thousands of bullets in four years. You deserve to carry ammunition all day long!"

Fang Zheng's cheeks turned red when he was told this.

However, he has been used to it for so many years, and even feels proud of it instead of ashamed of it.

"Hey, squad leader, look at what you said. We are not those young masters in the police detective company. Ammunition supplies are transported by special cat-cat vehicles. Someone has to carry the rocket launcher and ammunition."

"Damn it, old man!" Li Gang raised his foot as if to kick him. Fang Zheng saw that the situation was not good and quickly dodged to the side.

Watching the two people playing, Jiang Chen also had a smile on his face.

When he introduced himself earlier, he thought this veteran named Fang Zheng was difficult to get along with, but he didn't expect...

"Alright, if you keep running I'll make sure you run enough tonight. Go to the armory and get me a Type 85 sniper rifle!"

"Yes!"

Fang Zheng, who was smiling playfully just now, immediately restrained his expression when he heard that there was something serious to be done. He stood at attention, saluted, agreed, and then trotted away.

He didn't ask Li Gang why he was given the sniper rifle.

This is the military camp. You can play and joke as you like, but everyone must obey the orders once they are given.

"The recruit company didn't have a quota for sniper rifles, and it was not worth it to ask the guard company or the police investigation company for such a small matter, so we didn't bring it up at the time.

Come to our reconnaissance company now, just in time to fill in for you!"

Just now when Li Gang asked Fang Zheng to get the sniper rifle, Jiang Chen had some guesses.

I didn’t expect it was really because of me.

Jiang Chen saluted quickly and said, "Thank you, squad leader!"

Ignoring Jiang Chen, Li Gang turned around and called out to the third squad: "Zhang Ming!"

"To!"

After Zhang Ming came over, Li Gang continued, "I promised this kid in the recruit company that I would teach him sniping. You should first teach him the use and basics of a sniper rifle, otherwise he won't be able to use a scope when he gets the gun."

I didn't expect that Li Gang was looking for me because of this matter. It's really true that after going through so many twists and turns, there is always a way out.

Zhang Ming immediately put on a smile, patted his chest and promised: "Hey, don't worry, squad leader, I will definitely teach you well!"

Zhang Ming took Jiang Chen to teach under the shade of a tree not far away. Li just turned his head and saw Tang Junjie staring at him with a wronged look on his face.

"Squad leader, you are so dishonest. Didn't we agree to let Jiang Chen follow me as an assaulter? Why are you asking him to learn sniping now?"

"Get lost. I don't believe you didn't hear me. I told you that this was what we agreed to in the recruit company. Besides, being a sniper is not that easy."

……

On the other side, under the shade of a tree, Zhang Ming was introducing the basic situation of the Type 85 sniper rifle to Jiang Chen, using the sniper rifle in his hand as an example.

"Type 85 sniper rifle, caliber: 7.62mm, initial bullet velocity: 830m/sec, effective range: 1000m.

Weight of the whole gun with scope: 4.4kg; length: 1220mm, width: 170mm, height: 178mm

Magazine capacity: 10 rounds.

Scope magnification: 4x.

This gun was copied from the Soviet-made Dragunov 7.62 sniper rifle, commonly known as the SVD, which was captured during the self-defense counterattack.

Soldiers must have sufficient understanding of the weapons in their hands, and snipers must do so even more.

Zhang Ming first gave Jiang Chen a brief introduction to the basics of the Type 85 sniper rifle.

"Sergeant, I remember seeing the snipers from the second platoon at the regiment headquarters before. They were clearly holding Type 88 sniper rifles." After Zhang Ming finished speaking, Jiang Chen also raised his own questions.

Jiang Chen was not so sure about the famous Type 88 sniper rifle.

"Haha, that's normal. After all, when you're out, you have to show off with some good stuff." Zhang Ming explained with a smile, "Although our reconnaissance company is not as wealthy as the police detective company, it's not bad either. We still have a few Type 95 and Type 88 sniper rifles in stock.

However, before the official replacement, those who want to use these guns need a personal signature from the company commander or instructor."

"Oh." Jiang Chen nodded, not quite understanding.

Zhang Ming continued to expand on this topic and told Jiang Chen the differences between the two sniper rifles.

"I have also shot a few shots with the Type 88 sniper rifle. From my personal experience, the Type 85 sniper rifle is more accurate than the other two rifles."

Although the effective range of the Type 1300 sniper rifle is only one thousand meters, during the Battle of the Two Mountains, our snipers used it to create extreme sniper kill records of 1600 meters and meters. "

"One thousand...six hundred meters?!" Jiang Chen was really shocked this time.

A precise sniping kill at one thousand six hundred meters has the effective range of two Type 88 sniper rifles!

This is a bit too outrageous...

Jiang Chen couldn't help but think of He Chenguang's 1,200-meter Type 88 sniper rifle. According to this logic, it might not be impossible.

"Sergeant, the Type 85 sniper can hit targets at a distance of 1,600 meters, so can the Type 88 sniper also hit targets farther?" He asked as soon as he thought of it. There was a professional sniper around him, so it would be a waste not to ask, so that he wouldn't have to worry about it all the time.

"Hehe." Perhaps he didn't expect Jiang Chen to ask such a question. Zhang Ming chuckled and did not answer directly. Instead, he continued to talk about the advantages and disadvantages of the two guns.

“Although the Type 85 sniper rifle is far more accurate than the Type 88 sniper rifle and its bullets are more lethal, it also has more shortcomings.

First, the recoil is large. Second, the gun body is long and heavy. In addition, the weight of the 7.62mm bullet is much heavier than that of the 5mm ammunition, making it very inconvenient to transport and carry.

Also, its sight is a bit crude, which affects shooting accuracy.

The most fatal point is that its firing pin is easily damaged, which greatly affects the reliability and service life of the firearm. "

After talking about the Type 85 sniper rifle in his hand, Zhang Ming talked about the Type 88 sniper rifle.

"The Type 88 sniper rifle is a typical small-caliber, high-power sniper rifle, and the ammunition it uses is the standard ammunition for my country's new generation of rifles, making it easier to resupply.

The accuracy is slightly worse. Accurate sniping can be achieved within 600 meters, and beyond 600 meters it depends on the personal strength of the shooter.

As for your question just now about whether it can exceed the effective range and still maintain sufficient power and accuracy like the Type 85 sniper.

I can tell you clearly that the Type 88 sniper rifle cannot achieve long-range sniping.

This has nothing to do with the shooter's personal strength, but is the limitation of the gun itself.

In terms of power, the 5.8mm bullet can still maintain decent lethality at a distance of more than meters, but its accuracy is not good. "

Zhang Ming couldn't help but recall the scene when he first came into contact with the Type 88 sniper.

It's funny to say that he is a sniper who can accurately hit a target more than 1,200 meters away with a Type 85 sniper rifle, but he didn't hit the target more than 800 meters away when he used a Type 88 sniper rifle for the first time...

The nickname of the Type 88 Sniper, '88 San', is not just a random name given by everyone.

The Type 88 sniper rifle is indeed somewhat unsatisfactory in terms of accuracy and range, but since they chose to equip this sniper rifle, they certainly have their own considerations.

Not to mention the logistical supplies, compared to the bulky Type 85 sniper rifle, the Type 88 sniper rifle with a bullpup design is easier to carry.

Secondly, the modular design makes it easier to disassemble, maintain and repair.

In addition, it has environmental adaptability. It can adapt perfectly to the severe cold in the north or the complex climate environments such as the jungles and subtropical oceans in the south.

Sacrificing some accuracy and bullet power for this is not a big problem.

What's more, it was originally designed to serve precision shooters, similar to foreign semi-automatic sniper rifles.

After all, except for special forces that need to perform special missions, most troops rarely encounter targets more than six hundred meters away.

The effective range of 800 meters is more than enough.
