After dinner, the survivors took a short rest, and then Hu Xiaodong led the archery team to start training.
As the archery team grew up, Hu Xiaodong knew how heavy the burden was on his shoulders. It was no exaggeration to say that their archery team was the only armed force that could compete with the opponent at the moment, and it was also the key to whether the villa could win the battle.
The team members also knew this very well, even Wenquan Xin, who always liked to be lazy and happy, became meticulous in subsequent training.
In order to enable everyone to adapt to actual combat as quickly as possible, Hu Xiaodong specially set up several markers on the bottom of the building. These were the locations where he had predicted in advance where the bandits might appear during the conflict upstairs.
What he has to do now is to train Wang Qiang and others to shoot at these targets.
Frankly speaking, he did not expect a few people to be able to hit the target with their arrows. As someone who has experienced it, he knew very well how difficult it is to shoot at such a height and distance. Not only do you need to be precise with your arrows, but you also need to consider the effects of demeanor and humidity.
And this is by no means something that can be learned through training in a short period of time.
Therefore, the main purpose of the requirements he put forward to the team members was to intimidate them. As long as they did not let the opponent get close to the villa, their practice would be successful.
In addition, according to Xu Renjie's request, Lao Zhao also took time to survey the entire villa in the afternoon.
He carefully inspected the villa inside and out, upstairs and downstairs. When the inspection was completed, the small notebook he brought with him was filled with his drawings.
Then he started to use the drawings in his hand to plan the renovation of the interior and exterior layout of the villa, and then handed it over to Xu Renjie's hands.
According to the discussion between the two, in addition to setting up necessary blocking devices around the villa, all the windows on the first floor of the villa were sealed with wooden boards, and the door was also reinforced with two large iron bars welded as door bolts.
In addition to exposing the necessary observation openings and shooting holes, all light-transmitting areas on the second and third floors were also nailed with wooden strips.
The stairwells between floors were blocked with sandbags and furniture.
The most important thing is the living room and the door on the first floor. Lao Zhao even suggested using cupboards and other objects to pile up a partition, so as to avoid the danger of enemies breaking through the main entrance and driving straight in.
In this way, by combining the inside and outside, the whole villa can be like a fortress, which can defend against enemies both inside and outside. If the bandits want to attack hard, they will definitely be unable to eat and walk around.
During this period, Shen Lian did not neglect the training of Little Briquettes.
Since the latter was still too young, Shen Lian's training for the little coal ball was not too difficult. The task he set for the little coal ball was to deliver items.
And thanks to his tireless training, whenever Little Coal Ball hears someone calling his name, he will immediately run to that person's location.
This reaction seemed useless, but Shen Lian felt that it might be useful in battle.
After all, the small meat ball is fast and small. By using it to deliver some supplies, it can ensure that the combatants stick to their posts without the need for extra personnel to transport them.
Secondly, in terms of absolute speed, the little meat ball must be faster than the running speed of the team members.
This is undoubtedly extremely important in a rapidly changing battlefield where the situation can change in seconds.
At night, Wei Yang prepared sumptuous dishes for everyone. Considering that the war was imminent and everyone's daily training and defense were difficult, it was obviously not appropriate to be frugal at this time, so the food served in the evening could be described as a feast.
During the meeting, each group reported on the progress of their respective tasks, especially the training results of the archery team.
In addition, brothers Li Zhong and Li Guo have completed the actual use of solar power generation equipment after an afternoon of modulation testing.
And this is undoubtedly extremely exciting news.
After dinner, Xu Renjie found the two brothers "China" and "Guo" and told them about the "bomb" they were making, and asked them to design a timed blasting device for them.
In response to this, the two brothers "China" and "Guo" agreed without saying a word.
The two of them quickly integrated into the group because of the "disaster" in the villa.
In this way, the survivors' villa defense battle went on day by day, and as the target date drew closer, the survivors' training intensity became more and more intense.
Early in the morning, Lao Xu led everyone in the villa to practice in the courtyard.
It's just that this time he didn't ask everyone to do a 2.5-kilometer return run with weights as he did in the past. Instead, he taught highly practical fighting skills.
The purpose of his doing this was also out of consideration for the characteristics of this incident.
After all, what they are facing this time is no longer brainless zombies, but cunning, treacherous and brutal gangsters.
In the past, relying on brute force to kill enemies was obviously not enough to cope with the current situation. Those gangsters would not and could not stand still and shoot you random headshots like zombies.
They have guns and weapons, they can hide, dodge, and know how to cooperate. That's why Lao Xu thought of teaching everyone fighting skills, so that even if he turns around and wants to fight the intruder face to face with fists and kicks, his own group will not be weak. Failure to do so will result in inferiority.
"Drink! Drink! Ha! Hey!" The survivors practiced very hard, perhaps because the "trading day" was approaching. They tried their best with every punch and kick.
Of course, this is also one of the key points that Xu Renjie asked them to remember when facing the enemy: when facing the enemy in battle, what matters is momentum.
Lao Xu warned everyone that when fighting, no matter what enemy you encounter, no matter how strong the enemy is, even if the opponent is taller, stronger, or even more powerful than you. But as long as you decide to take action, you must not be afraid, and you must not lose your momentum.
Because once the momentum is lost, the outcome of the battle is already determined.
On the contrary, one will wax and wane, and only the weak will have the possibility of counterattack.
This is why Lao Xu wants everyone to roar every time they make a move.
He just wants everyone to feel that power so that they can use it in battle to frighten their opponents.
Early in the morning, the whole courtyard was filled with shouts of murder, even the petite Wei Yang was no exception.
The current villa is really full of soldiers. Fortunately, it is located in a remote place. Otherwise, if they made this noise, it would be a ghost if the zombies didn't come.
As the saying goes, hard work will eventually pay off. The survivors' unremitting efforts and practice day and night have made each of them significantly improved compared to the past in terms of physical fitness, endurance, and fists.
Under Hu Xiaodong's patient training, several members of the archery team became increasingly better at shooting, and the number of arrows hitting the target downstairs also increased from zero to many.
Everything is proceeding step by step, and the day of the war is imminent. (To be continued.)
