Movie Variety Show: Starting from a New World

"Xiao Zhao, what do you think of their special forces team?" Commander Zhou asked Zhao Cheng curiously on the way back.

"No problem, Long Chenggong didn't give you a perfunctory answer. This group of players is already the best in their base!" Zhao Cheng had finished the confrontation and was walking towards his tent.

In the confrontation exercise just now, Zhao Cheng's performance won the respect of all special forces members. Although they all completed the entire process, no one could be as relaxed and at ease as Zhao Cheng. It can be said that Zhao Cheng's strength is far beyond theirs.

"That's good. I was afraid that Long Chenggong would be reluctant to part with these guys!" Commander Zhou felt relieved after hearing what Zhao Cheng said.

"Tomorrow we can have all the personnel conduct overall coordination training, and each branch of the military must also do coordination and cooperation training! I will add another weapon to the special forces today so that they can be more covert when performing their tasks!" Zhao Cheng said after thinking for a while.

"Oh? What weapon?" Commander Zhou asked curiously.

"Crossbow!" Zhao Cheng smiled and said calmly.

"Crossbow? Is that thing still useful now? The range of today's guns has reached thousands of meters. Can the crossbow still be effective on the battlefield?" Commander Zhou was a little unconvinced when he heard what Zhao Cheng said. After all, as a general, he certainly knew all the data about the crossbow.

"Commander, you should know that when special forces are operating, they often need to engage the enemy in secret. Although the crossbow's range is not as good as that of firearms, it has one biggest advantage, which is its silent effect. Moreover, some crossbows in our country have a range longer than guns, and ordinary crossbow arrows are much stronger than current pistols." Zhao Cheng looked at Commander Zhou and explained to him confidently.

After hearing what Zhao Cheng said, Commander Zhou also remembered that this thing was indeed a very good sword for sneak attacks, and might even be more useful than a pistol.

In particular, he also knew that we also have a Zhuge Crossbow, which can hold twenty arrows at a time!

"Okay, hurry up and get ready. I really want to see those guys' stunned expressions when you sneak attack them tonight.

In fact, Zhao Cheng had already prepared this weapon that he had just thought of some time ago before coming.

Moreover, he had seen in videos in later generations that a master had reproduced the Zhuge Crossbow of that time, and he had also seen the crossbow arrows used in military exercises.

Although many materials cannot be obtained now, ordinary crossbow arrows are sufficient.

After Zhao Cheng returned to the tent and washed up, he began to assemble the crossbow he brought with him.

A repeating crossbow and an ordinary hand crossbow. The repeating crossbow can only be like that. Zhao Cheng couldn't think of any way to modify it.

However, Zhao Cheng found a lot of information about the crossbow, and also found several top carpenters in Peking and asked them to make an exquisite crossbow for him.

This crossbow is quite large, about fifty-five centimeters long, with a crossbow arm of about eighty centimeters. The bowstring is made of twenty-strand hemp rope. Due to current limited conditions, we can only use this.

After assembling it, Zhao Cheng took out the crossbow he had brought with him. He hadn't assembled the crossbow yet. Since it was a drill, he couldn't use a real crossbow, right? Zhao Cheng simply wrapped one end of the arrow shaft with cotton cloth and covered it with white ash.

Zhao Cheng took out the crossbow and tested its power. Within fifty meters, its power was definitely not much worse than that of a pistol, and it was basically silent.

Zhao Cheng packed up his crossbows and arrows, waiting for the evening exercises to surprise those military leaders.

In the afternoon, Zhao Cheng did some preparations before the exercise. This time, the twenty-eight of them would face a regiment, and they would need one night to defeat or destroy their headquarters.

For this exercise, the arsenal specially produced rubber bullets, and the bullets were also specially treated to reduce the amount of gunpowder. Otherwise, with the current caliber of weapons, not to mention ten or twenty meters, even fifty or one hundred meters would be lethal.

Soon, it was evening time, because except for the regimental commander of the troops, they knew nothing about this exercise.

So the entire regiment was completely unprepared and didn't even know their bullets had been replaced. All the ammunition had been replaced by the headquarters, including the bayonets!

All of this was done secretly at the headquarters before the night's rest. The regimental commander was also a veteran who had walked through grasslands and climbed snow-capped mountains. Seeing his troops undergo such an exercise, he felt a little aggrieved.

But Commander Zhou's words made him unwilling to accept it but he had to endure it.

"On the battlefield, will they wait until you're ready before telling you to attack you? Prepare? Prepare for what? What are you doing? Do you know what it means to be prepared at all times?"

Commander Zhou's words greatly increased the suddenness of the exercise. The regiment commander could only sit in his office and wait quietly for the exercise to begin. Although he knew about the exercise, he didn't know who the opponent was.

He didn't know what tactics the other side was using, nor did he know the situation of their equipment and personnel.

With this unknown danger, he couldn't increase his vigilance just because of the drill, so he had to follow the previous day's arrangements. This was the most frustrating thing for the captain.

He also tried to talk to the commander and wanted to strengthen the vigilance, but the commander did not allow it. Since you think that this is defense under normal circumstances, there is no other way, you can only do it this way.

Fortunately, the regiment commander has the habit of arranging secret sentries. He is now hoping that the secret sentries can play a role and give the troops enough time to react.

The regimental commander had been pacing around the regimental headquarters since lights-out. His restless look made the political commissar and the chief of staff very confused, but because the three of them had just started working together not long ago, they did not rush up to ask questions like their old partners did.

Time passed slowly, and it was around midnight. The regiment commander was still waiting quietly in the office. Although he turned off the lights according to the rules, he did not sleep at all. He sat in the office with a pistol in his hand, ready to attack at any time to let the blue troops in the exercise see his determination to resist.

However, this high level of concentration made him too tired, and he fell asleep around two o'clock.

Not long after he fell asleep, most of the special forces led by Zhao Cheng had arrived near his camp.

"Instructor, we have figured out the visible and covert sentries. They just changed shifts and went back to sleep. It will take two hours for them to change shifts again." Squadron leader Ma Bing saw Zhao Cheng coming and hurried up to report.

"According to the original plan, first deal with the secret sentries, then the visible sentries. Use knives or crossbows, and try not to use guns. Remember, use a pen to mark their necks in the dormitory. We will look at this mark at the end of the exercise tomorrow!" Zhao Cheng ordered.

"Understood!" Everyone responded in a low voice.

"Action!" Zhao Cheng waved his hand, and everyone began today's exercise.

Zhao Cheng watched the team members in action, sneaked into the camp from the corner, and went straight to the commander's office.

The only person in the entire regiment who knew about the exercise was the regiment commander, so Zhao Cheng went straight to the regiment commander to make trouble. As for those soldiers?

The plan has been made, and it depends on how well they can carry it out. After all, this exercise is a test for both sides!
