Special Forces: I Can See the Experience Bar

Chapter 21 The Competition (2)
"Young people have drive, that's good! Captain Gao, what do you think?"

Minister Zhao smiled as he looked at Old Gao with a dog's head. The purpose of bringing the Wolf Fang team with him on this inspection was to examine the combat effectiveness of the grassroots reconnaissance units from a professional perspective. Moreover, he had plenty of time and didn't care about the extra time.

"Okay, I have no objection."

The leader was clearly interested in Chang Ning, and Old Gao wasn't oblivious to the situation.

"Let's begin! What are you waiting for!"

Miao Lian said with a dark face and an unhappy tone. Chang Ning had completely disrupted his plans, so it was no wonder he was in a good mood.

Chang Ning didn't waste any words. After stepping out of the line, he quickly ran to the front, stood at attention, and saluted the leaders.

"At ease." Minister Zhao waved his hand with a smile and said, "Well, we've all seen your multi-skilled rifle shooting results just now. How would you like to demonstrate them now?"

"Let's do target practice."

Chang Ning's words surprised everyone, because if it were target practice, there really wasn't much to show off; Gao Zhong's rapid-fire shooting had already outshone Chang Ning.

"But not a stationary target, but a moving target, and we'll be shooting at a 600-meter target!"

Well, after Chang Ning said that, everyone was at a loss for words. Everyone present knew that the Type 95 rifle had a range of 400 meters. To come up here and shoot at a moving target at 600 meters is like asking if you think your Type 95 is a sniper rifle!

"Old Miao, your soldiers are quite interesting."

Miao Lian just smiled and didn't say anything. Since things had come to this point, he could only trust Chang Ning. At worst, he would step in and clean up the mess.

No one believed Chang Ning could do it, including Old Gao. His eyes were filled with disappointment; he thought he had found a promising talent, but it turned out to be an arrogant brat.

Even if a fully equipped Type 95 rifle is equipped with an optical sight, theoretically it can hit a target at 600 meters, but that's only in theory!
Moreover, it's a moving target, which greatly increases the difficulty; it would be a miracle if you could hit it!

In fact, Chang Ning was still confident, although not very confident, but anything is possible with human effort.

If he fails, he has a cheat code; as long as he isn't discharged from the army, he can still make a comeback. What's there to be afraid of?

After the targets were set up, Chang Ning used a kneeling shooting position this time. Shooting from a prone position is inconvenient when shooting at moving targets, while a standing position is not very stable.

"Chang Ning, are you ready?" Miao Lian asked.

"All right."

"Okay, there are human-shaped targets over there at 400 meters and 600 meters. Once you're ready, shoot and let us see."

As soldiers of the Night Tigers, Miao Lian wouldn't really bear to let Chang Ning fail, so he specially arranged for one of them to be within effective firing range.

Miao Lian had secretly looked into Chang Ning's background, even though he had abandoned Chang Ning after leaving him in the cooking squad.

In fact, he paid just as much attention to Chang Ning as he did to Xiao Zhuang, so he knew Chang Ning's background very well. He knew that this kid could almost hit the bullseye every time he fired a Type 95 assault rifle within its range!
"Could you give me a few more magazines?" Chang Ning asked after thinking for a moment, feeling that it was better to play it safe.

Miao Lian remained silent with a dark expression, but directly took two magazines from the side and handed them over. All three magazines were fully loaded, totaling 90 rounds of ammunition.

Minister Zhao and Captain Gao saw it but didn't say anything. They both knew how difficult it was to shoot a moving target at 600 meters with a Type 95 assault rifle. If Chang Ning succeeded, they would be witnessing the birth of a new record.

After taking the magazine and loading the bullet, Chang Ning knelt down on one knee, and several different calculation formulas appeared in his mind once again.

As he continuously adjusted his posture, the data in his mind also changed. This was a benefit the system gave him after he maxed out his Changning rifle shooting experience; it was like a mini-computer, using these calculations to help him improve his hit rate.

This time, he discovered that after the gun in his hand changed, the data in his mind was also different.

For example, this time even the polishing data of optical sight lenses was included in the statistics, which wasn't available before. It's important to understand that although optical lenses are now mechanically manufactured, the smoothness of their polishing varies considerably.

Even the slightest error in the polishing process was taken into account, along with optical deflection, as well as the air humidity, temperature, wind speed, gravity, and so on. When he aimed the scope at the target at 400 meters away, all the data seemed to be instantly clear to him.

Finally, all this data was combined into one, and Chang Ning only needed to adjust his posture according to the data and then gently fire.

Aside from the difference in range and accuracy, Chang Ning can now use an assault rifle as a sniper rifle!

Taking a deep breath, Chang Ning aimed at the red balloon on the chest of the 400-meter moving humanoid target and prepared to fire.

The targets were all human-shaped, with a balloon attached to a hollowed-out part of each body for easier viewing. Miao Lian, who was watching this scene, had a smile on his face.

He could tell that Chang Ning was first shooting at the 400-meter target, and with Chang Ning's consistent accuracy, he could hit the target directly. But when he thought about the 600-meter target that followed, Miao Lian began to worry again.

No matter what, Chang Ning is only 19 years old. What if she gets discouraged by this defeat?
Maybe this is a good thing! Because Chang Ning is just too outstanding.

Miao Lian could sense that Chang Ning was too confident. Confidence is a good thing, but if she continued to be so confident, it might not be a good thing.

Sometimes setbacks can make people more humble and more motivated to learn.

So Miao Lian just watched quietly, waiting for Chang Ning to make a mistake so that he could act with humility.

As Miao Lian's thoughts raced through his mind, Chang Ning, standing beside him, immediately pulled the trigger of the Type 95 rifle.

Upon hearing the gunshot, Miao Lian was the first to grab the binoculars from his chest, followed closely by Gao Zhong and Minister Zhao.

With a loud "bang," accompanied by a muffled gunshot, the balloon on the chest of the humanoid target 400 meters away burst open.

After firing the first shot, Chang Ning instantly found his rhythm. The data in his mind changed more rapidly, and the results calculated by the formula were also faster.

"boom"

The second shot rang out immediately, and this time, it was the balloon at the top that was popped.

What shocked Miao Lian even more was that Chang Ning then went into a frenzy, firing continuously without stopping at all.

The leaders, within the range of their telescopes at a distance of 400 meters, saw the remaining four balloons on the human-shaped target being detonated at a terrifying speed, accompanied by gunfire.

Left hand, right hand, left leg, right leg—four shots in quick succession! Every shot hit its mark, with less than a second between them!
What kind of firing speed is this? Even some veteran shooters wouldn't dare to use this speed to shoot at a moving human-shaped target at 400 meters, since they still need to ensure accuracy.

Is that an assault rifle?! You're treating an assault rifle like a sniper rifle!
As the balloons were popped one by one, Miao Lian's heart finally settled down. Why? Because there was still a 600-meter target waiting for him!
Don't underestimate the difference of only 200 meters; it makes a world of difference. At least the first 400 meters are still within range, but at 600 meters, the bullets are already erratic, so how can you possibly hit them?
After finishing firing, Chang Ning quickly changed the magazine, raised the rifle in his hand, and almost the moment his eye touched the scope, he pulled the trigger again.

Miao Lian, disregarding the jumbled thoughts in his mind, quickly raised his binoculars and looked at the 600-meter target in the distance.

"Bang" "Bang" "Bang"...

This time, Chang Ning was much more cautious, and he didn't fire as frequently as before, but even so, his speed was something that ordinary soldiers couldn't achieve.

The same result occurred; all the balloons were popped in the same order as the 400-meter target, leaving Miao Lian somewhat dazed. Was this a new recruit? He knew Chang Ning had excellent talent in rifle shooting, but since it was all just data on paper and he had never actually seen it, he was truly astonished.

The high school team leader, standing nearby, put down his binoculars, his eyes wide with shock. He now regretted refusing Minister Zhao's suggestion earlier.

Such a promising gunslinger must be recruited by Wolf Fang. And we have to be quick, otherwise others will find out and try to snatch him away. Putting aside everything else, Lei Keming of Black Tiger would absolutely not hesitate for a second!
