Ma Chao's talent lies in his superhuman vision.
When ordinary people look at the bull's-eye a hundred meters away, it's just a pinhead-sized dot.
But according to Ma Chao's words: "The bull's-eye is as big as a washbasin and you can't hit it?"
If you want to become a shooter, excellent eyesight is the first factor. And Ma Chao's almost abnormal vision is absolutely unique.
The next day, Ma Chao still failed to reach the 80 ring during target practice.
He was quite stubborn. At that time, his father said to him: "Why don't you know how to raise the muzzle of the gun before shooting?"
He replied: "Isn't it because the muzzle of the gun is raised that it misses the aim? Didn't you teach me to aim wherever I want to hit?"
"Anyway, if you raise the muzzle of the gun, you can hit the bullseye!"
"But why is this? You have to tell me the reason, right?"
Ma Biao was finally speechless and had no choice but to ask him to go find Liu Yu.
He also saw Liu Yu's thoughts about his son, and decided to let go and let Liu Yu cultivate him.
Originally, he thought that since both his father and son had joined the army, he had to protect his son, so as not to let them die on the battlefield in the future.
The old Ma family is dead.
Now it seems that his son is not a character that he can control at all. If he simply leaves it to Liu Yu, he might be able to make some achievements in the future.
At the same time, he also said to his son: "Don't look at the captain who is targeting you everywhere. It's for your own good! I can't see your bad temper."
You won't be able to accomplish anything big in the future, so you should grind it out. If you have any questions from now on, just go to the captain. Don't ask me, I don't know anything! "
Ma Chao had no choice but to go find Liu Yu in order not to wash his sweaty underwear.
. . . . . .
In the afternoon, Liu Yu took 10 bullets and took Ma Chao to the shooting range outside the village.
He didn't directly tell Ma Chao about gravity, wind and other things, because he would probably make Ma Chao crazy if he told him. Instead, he picked up a stone and threw it in front of Ma Chao's face.
The stone fell to the ground in a parabola in the air.
Liu Yu turned to Ma Chao and asked, "Do you see anything?"
Ma Chao shook his head blankly.
Liu Yu was helpless, knowing that this boy was not stupid, but unwilling to use his brain.
"The stone I throw is like the bullet fired from your gun. When the stone flies, it will fall down, and the same goes for the bullet. When I throw the stone, I use a small force, so it flies slowly. And it’s so close that you can clearly see him falling.”
"But bullets are different. The bullets are powerful and fly fast. When the distance is short, they will not fall down significantly, but when the distance is far, they will fall down more. So, you shoot a hundred meters When you hit the target, you just hit wherever you want, but when it reaches 400 meters, you can't hit ten rings."
After finishing speaking, Liu Yu saw Ma Chao thoughtful and asked with a smile: "Do you understand a little bit?"
Ma Chao nodded: "No wonder my father asked me to raise the muzzle of the gun when shooting. In this case, if I aim at the bullseye, the bullet will fall down a little when it flies past, and it will hit the bullseye when it flies to the target. . But how do I know how much to raise it? I tried, but I still can’t hit the bullseye even if I raise the muzzle of the gun. Sometimes it’s not just up and down, but also to the left and right.”
Liu Yu smiled and said: "After a bullet comes out of the barrel, there are many factors that affect its flight, such as gravity, wind, humidity, air pressure, and even your own breathing rate, etc. I will teach you this knowledge later, but for now Let me tell you how to aim a gun at something far away."
He took the gun in Ma Chao's hand, pointed at the sight ruler above, and continued: "Come and see, you usually use this groove to aim, right? But it is only used to hit close-range targets. If The target is too far away, so you have to use a sight when aiming. Of course, someone like your father who has been playing with guns all his life can hit the target with experience without using a sight. I believe that after you have fired thousands of bullets, you will definitely be able to achieve this level. .”
"Now I put it up and stuck it. Look at the scale again. The scale on it is the distance corresponding to the target. The target is now 400 meters, so push it to the 400-meter position."
As he spoke, Liu Yu pushed the watch scale to the 400-meter mark, then loaded a bullet into the gun. After loading the gun, he aimed at the target in the distance and fired.
Hit the target successfully.
Ma Chao looked surprised. He didn't expect that his captain's marksmanship was not bad.
Seeing that the car hadn't overturned, Liu Yu nodded with satisfaction and handed the gun back to Ma Chao: "My shooting skills are no better than yours. If I can hit the target with 400, it's already pretty good. Now try it."
Ma Chao followed Liu Yu's words, loaded the gun, aimed, and shot.
It didn't hit the bull's-eye, but it was just a little to the left, and it was still 9 rings.
"Great fight!" Liu Yu praised sincerely.
This time Ma Chao did not raise his nose to the sky as usual, but asked: "I clearly aimed at the bull's-eye, why am I still missing it?"
"Didn't I just say that what affects the trajectory is not only gravity, but the most important thing is wind." Liu Yu said and patted Ma Chao on the shoulder, "I will slowly teach you this knowledge in the future, you boy. You have to study hard. Your mother and sister are watching you in the sky. If you don't kill a few more Japanese to avenge them, are you worthy of them?"
For this stubborn donkey, Liu Yu could only play the family card.
Sure enough, as soon as Ma Chao heard that his mother and two sisters were killed by the Japanese, he immediately corrected his attitude.
"Yes, Captain! I promise to study hard!"
"Well!" Liu Yu nodded, "Now I'll teach you how to measure the distance. Now those foreigners and even the little devils have optical rangefinders, which are convenient and accurate. We don't have them, so we can only use native methods. Although There are errors, but it’s barely usable.”
With that said, Liu Yu taught Ma Chao how to measure distance with his thumb.
While he was teaching, suddenly a man ran from the direction of the village and shouted Liu Yu's name loudly.
"team leader!!!"
Liu Yu turned around and saw Zhang Erxi running towards here.
Running closer, Zhang Erxi said without waiting for Liu Yu to ask: "Sanhe Village, those fellow villagers who helped us before were robbed by bandits. I heard that several of them died!"
"What?!"
. . . . . .
In the headquarters, the second eldest son of the Zhang family accompanied his sister and sister-in-law, sitting next to Wu Hongbo.
The two girls were still sobbing non-stop at this moment, and the second child of the Zhang family comforted them with red eyes.
After a while, there was a sound of footsteps at the door, and then Liu Yu was seen walking in quickly.
Seeing Liu Yu, the second son of the Zhang family immediately stood up and greeted him.
"Captain, I've found you, but you have to let my father and brother make the decision!"
As he spoke, tears fell.
When Liu Yu saw him, he recognized him immediately.
This man's name is Zhang Erhe, and he helped him move things last time. They also helped move the county brigade from Fenghuang Mountain to Yangcun.
"Are you Zhang Erhe? What happened to your father and the others? Tell me clearly!"
"Let me tell you." Wu Hongbo came over and said, "It's Zhao Yi from Qingyun Village. For some reason, this group of people has recently fled to Phoenix Mountain. I've heard of them before. They are gangsters. Who are they?" They all dared to rob. At first, the 772 Regiment recruited them, but they were rejected and even injured the cadres they sent. This time, the villagers of Sanhe Village were about to go down the mountain to go home for the New Year, but he blocked the road and robbed them. Uncle Zhang and his son Zhang Dahe and two other villagers who resisted were beaten to death by Zhao Yi."
"Damn it!" Liu Yu took off his hat and threw it on the table with a bang, "It just happened to be settled together with the old accounts of the brothers' troops!"
Then he looked at Wu Hongbo: "Instructor, gather the troops and distribute ammunition!"
Wu Hongbo hesitated and said: "Captain, this is a combat operation. Should we ask the regiment headquarters for instructions? Besides, we are not very familiar with the strength of Zhao Yi's group, and we don't know what their firepower is like. If we attack rashly, I'm afraid it will be a disaster." You’re going to suffer a loss!”
"It's ridiculous to ask for permission when you're beating up a bandit! Besides, do you know where the regiment headquarters is at the moment? By the time you finish asking for permission, the day lily will be cold!"
After Liu Yu finished speaking, he cursed again: "I'm not even afraid of Japanese, so why are you afraid of this group of bandits?"
Wu Hongbo was sprayed in the face, so he had no choice but to go out to gather troops.
As soon as he went out, Zhang Erhe said: "Captain, give me a gun and count me in!"
Liu Yu glanced at him: "You?"
Zhang Erhe said sadly: "My brother said before he died that as long as you help my father avenge his death, I will follow you to fight the Japanese!"
Liu Yu said seriously: "Erhe, you are the only one in your family..."
"It's okay. My sister-in-law is already pregnant. The midwife in the village said that she is probably the one who takes charge. So even if I die, the old Zhang family will not be extinct!"
Liu Yu then looked at the two female relatives beside him, and sure enough he found that the older one had a big belly.
"Okay, but you have to wait until this battle is over before you join the army."
"team leader......"
Zhang Erhe still wanted to fight for it, but Liu Yu raised his hand and interrupted: "The army is not a vegetable market, and our Eighth Route Army is not a grassroots team. There are rules! You stay in the village first, and we will talk about enlisting in the army when we come back!"
