Chapter 19: Bizarre Training

  Remember in one second

  "Ah, you're talking about that Xiao Dong, huh? He's really a spendthrift. What's the news about him today? Is he trying to catch a rabbit with his eyes closed? No way! That's good, that's good. This Xiao Dong is actually a good person, but why is he so wasteful?"

  It turned out that Liu He had earned a reputation as a wasteful young master in the village over this period of time. This story starts with his mountain patrol team members learning how to shoot guns.

  Now that everyone is familiar with the gun, Liu He begins to think of ways to torment the crowd, including Dog Egg Father. For some time now, the crowd has been tormented by this young master to the point of being driven mad.

  Prone shooting is fine, now you get up to kneeling position, first of all, each person holds a long gun in the kneeling state, and hangs a stone weighing half a catty to one catty at the front end of the gun. When the muzzle is stable, hang another weight of more than one catty, and it can hit the bullseye, which is considered qualified.

  Physical strength is consumed a lot, but these trained people eat well too, every meal will have meat to eat, and can also drink a bowl of bone soup, so even if they are trained to death it's worth it.

  Soon, Liu He changed again, standing upright with a gun, this time it was an object weighing over two kilograms. You say annoying or not, naturally while practicing arm strength, the bullets were still used without reduction, ten shots per day could still be achieved, for which Liu He spent a lot of money again, even buying more than a dozen rifles, so the shooting team expanded, already half of the long workers or former bandits were training, naturally their old movements couldn't be neglected either, training and patrolling the mountain were done after work.

  "Liu He, why are you torturing us all day? I don't want to practice anymore," Zhang Zhen, the little chili pepper, burst out again today. "You're telling the truth, I really don't want to practice." Liu He looked at Zhang Zhen with a hint of a smile, "What's wrong, do I just not want to train like this?" Indeed, Zhang Zhen had more time relatively, and her training time was also longer. Seeing Liu He's smile, Zhang Zhen felt a bit uneasy in her heart.

  "Alright, you return the gun to me and I'll arrange for someone else to train." "No," Zhang Zhen said firmly, even taking the gun and running out. Liu He looked over and saw that she had run onto the training field.

  Liu He was not idle either. At first, he didn't follow the training because he had to arrange for farming matters. Later, when everyone became familiar with the new process, Liu He gradually handed over the tasks to his subordinates and followed the training himself. Others didn't know what Liu He was thinking, but Liu He knew that this was a way to save lives during wartime.

  "Everyone's warmed up, right?" "Yes." "Good, good. Alright, everyone has to run around this field ten times, on your mark, go!"

  A new course has started, and soon everyone will have finished running ten laps. "Everyone has a prone position, loading three shots." Liu He has come up with another way to torment everyone. This time it's running ten laps in the prone shooting position, next time it's running ten laps in the kneeling shooting position, and then it's running ten laps in the standing shooting position. Liu He is doing the same thing, although everyone doesn't know what this is for, but they can't resist the good food, every day practicing like this will only make their muscles more solid and their weight will increase again.

  "Master Liu, Master Liu, we also want to shoot guns." This day a group of children led by Dog Egg came running to find Liu He. "You guys, have you seen it? Such a big stone," said Liu He, pointing to a long and heavy stone that weighed over a kilogram. "Go up the mountain to find stones like this one, all with similar weight, and bring me more of them. Then come back to see me."

  "Ah, good ah, the master has given us a task." With a task comes good food, this kid is not like an adult, clearly wanting to eat but pretending not to. "Master, do you think this is enough? What do we need to do? Can we start training with guns now?" "Not yet, look at that place about 50 meters away, there's a small hole there. You guys can practice throwing stones like this, when you can easily throw the stone into that little hole from 50 meters away, I'll let you shoot guns. You all need to practice hard, whoever reaches the goal first gets to shoot first."

  。”

  This kid is better at talking, this stone usually doesn't play less often, this time it's just that there was a request, the kids started practicing throwing stones, which is naturally to train them to throw hand grenades in the future. Even Liu He arranged for those training shooters to practice throwing stones for half an hour every day, their distance is far away, 80 to 100 meters away, naturally Liu He doesn't know the posture, so everyone has to explore it themselves. However, sometimes Liu He would ask for what prone throw, kneeling throw, etc., in short, just thinking of ways to torture people, his argument is that you eat well, you have to enjoy the torture well.

  Half a year had passed and everyone basically met Liu He's requirements. Shooting while running was now a given, and stationary targets were no longer an issue.

  "Uh, you all practice well, but it's not a good thing to play like this every day. I just can't take it anymore. It's harvest season for wild game now, and it should be the best time to hunt. Go up the mountain and hunt for me."

  Hunting in the mountains, the first target is naturally a rabbit. This little thing runs fast, practicing gun skills and eyesight, and also exercising everyone's hiding ability. "Quickly, quickly, there's one over there, shoot." A burst of gunfire erupted, with more than a dozen guns firing at once, yet not a single rabbit was killed. "Alas." Everyone let out a sigh, where did all their usual training go? How could they not even hit a rabbit?

  It was unnecessary for Liu He to remind everyone, everything still needs to be explored by oneself in order to deepen one's memory. Later, Zhang Zhen opened the pot first, "Ah, I know, I know."

  This Zhang Zhen was proud of hitting the first target and wanted to show off, and everyone else also recognized Zhang Zhen as a master, so they naturally gathered around to listen to her explanation. "When shooting at a moving object, you need to lead your shot, if you aim directly at a running rabbit when you pull the trigger, by the time the bullet gets there, the rabbit won't be in that spot anymore." No wonder Taizu said that all true knowledge comes from direct experience, Zhang Zhen had an educational background, so she was able to explore the root of things and had a basis for her discovery, plus with bullets as evidence, she quickly discovered the principle of leading your shot.

  Zhang Zhen really put her heart into it, every time after shooting, she would run over to see where the bullet hit, and after a long time, she figured out this principle.
