Chapter 547 Sniping Essentials
Two hours later, the snipers selected from the Hanyang Defense Zone and the Wuchang Defense Zone also arrived in Hankou.
The commanders of each brigade were executed without any restraint for Zhong Yi's orders, whether in the Hanyang Defense Zone or the Wuchang Defense Zone, and all the snipers with outstanding marksmanship were selected.
More than 3,000 people squeezed the front yard of the Wuzhu Palace and the corridors of the side halls on both sides.
The training of snipers is a long process, from the stability of gun holding to the tempering of willpower, from physical fitness to polishing of endurance, and finally shooting training in extreme states, all of which need to be slowly developed through long training day after day!
But now, Zhong Yi obviously does not meet this condition!
But fortunately, these are not necessary conditions for becoming an excellent sniper!
For example, Zhang Taofang, a sniper hero in the Volunteer Army, had never even touched a gun before joining the army, so sniper training was even more impossible. However, when he arrived in North Korea, he quickly grew into the best sniper!
So in a sense, snipers are born, not trained!
The more than 3,000 snipers selected from Hankou, Hanyang and Wuchang defense zones, let alone other things, at least their marksmanship is pretty good. At least everyone has shot more than five Japanese soldiers! This is enough to prove that they are born snipers like Zhang Taofang!
Of course, it is impossible to reach Zhang Taofang's level!
But Zhong Yi doesn’t need these more than 3,000 snipers to become Zhang Taofang. As long as these more than 3,000 people can become a qualified sniper, it is enough for the Japanese to have a drink!
These more than 3,000 people, like Zhang Taofang, have strong talents in sniping!
However, most of their sniper skills are very rough, and what Zhong Yi wants to do is to polish the sniper skills of these snipers through actual combat!
Higakurigu Nihiko wanted to train them in military training and be familiar with the tactics of street fighting. Why couldn't he take this opportunity to train the Japanese in reverse? That is, to train 50,000 new recruits, and also train these 3,000 snipers!
These three thousand snipers are trained, which is worth 60,000 veterans!
In this way, the troops under the Wuhan Garrison Command will no longer have 80,000 people, but 80,000 plus 20,000 plus 50,000, and 60,000, that is 210,000!
Because the battlefield was controlled, the wounded soldiers of the National Army were able to receive medical treatment in time and could return to the battlefield after recovery. Therefore, the Wuhan Garrison Command could actually use at least 300,000 troops!
Then, according to the casualties of one to two, at least 150,000 Japanese can be defeated!
For the second army of Higakure-Miya Nihiko, whose total strength is only 200,000, this is absolutely unbearable!
If we really fight for this, then there will be only one result waiting for the second army of Higashijiugu Niyan, that is, the entire army will be destroyed!
The first sniper technique is survival!
Zhong Yi raised the loudspeaker and said loudly: "The first rule of sniper is to survive!"
"No matter how good a sniper is, only by surviving can you kill the enemy. If you are a dead person, you are the most outstanding sniper in the world, and it is useless!"
"So, from today on you must establish such a concept!"
"After going to the battlefield, you must first ensure your safety, and then kill the enemy!"
"The second rule of sniper is that you should never underestimate your opponent. No matter how weak the opponent is, you must assume that he is the most powerful opponent you encounter!"
"The third rule of sniper is to never fire two shots in the same sniper position!"
"You must believe that there is only one chance to shoot. If you don't have a single blow, the enemy will never give you a second chance, so you must transfer without hesitation!"
"The main sniper law is the above three!"
"Next, I'll talk about the key points of sniping!"
"The trajectory of the bullet is almost a straight line within four hundred meters, but if the distance exceeds four hundred meters, it becomes an arc."
"So, if you want to hit the target four hundred meters away, it is not enough to just aim at the target!"
"If you shoot a target with a distance of more than 400 meters, you must raise the muzzle and leave an advance amount!"
"However, the reserved advance amount is different for different distances! I am afraid that the specific advance amount will depend on you to explore and experience it in the actual combat!"
"But there is one thing that I can teach you!"
"That is distance measurement, and distance measurement is performed through thumb alignment!"
"The first step in the thumb distance measurement method is to select a reference object near the target, such as a house, and the width of a house is basically fixed!"
"Then close your left eye, then straighten your right hand, and give your thumbs up, aim the left edge of your thumb at the left wall of the house, then open your left eye and close your right eye. At this time, look at where your left edge of your thumb is located! First estimate the distance between the edge of your thumb and the back two times, and then multiply it by ten, which is the rough distance between you and the target!"
"This distance measurement method is rough and has a large error, but it is enough to estimate the ballistics of the bullet!"
...
Liu Laohang listened quietly to Zhong Yi's speech and felt a brand new world slowly opening up in front of him.
After listening to Zhong Yi’s speech, Liu Laohuan suddenly figured out many things he couldn’t understand before!
Liu Laohan was shocked, but the guy standing next to him didn't listen carefully at all. Because he was bored, he even took the initiative to come over and talk to Liu Laohan.
"Hey, this brother, I am from the 1st Regiment of the Guard Brigade. My name is Erbao. Which unit do you belong to?"
Liu Laohang turned his head and glanced at him, then turned his head and continued to listen to Zhong Yi's lecture attentively.
Erbao was not angry because of Liu Laohang's cold eyes, and asked again: "How many Japanese have you killed?"
Liu Lao Hang still ignored it and continued to listen to Zhong Yi's words. Erbao continued to say to himself: "If you don't say it, I can guess it if you don't say it. Judging from you like this, at most, you will only kill five or more than a dozen?"
Liu Laohan couldn't bear it anymore and said angrily: "Can you shut up and listen to the lecture first?"
"What do you think? What's the good thing?" Erbao curled his lips, "I tell you that the ability to shoot is born, and you can't become powerful by listening to a few words."
"You are just a rustic guy!" Liu Laohuan snorted lightly, ignoring Erbao again.
The second baby was really bored, so he fell asleep against the pillar, and a slight snoring sound came out after a while.
I was confused and didn't know how long I had been sleeping, but Erbao suddenly heard a burst of warm applause. He opened his eyes quickly and saw that Liu Lao Hang was applauding very vigorously, looking very excited.
