The snow was a bit heavy, and the north wind blew through the woods, sending “whooping” sounds, blowing away the thick smell of gunpowder smoke. About two kilometers away from where the two teams were shooting, the local troops heard the end of the intensive gunfire and knew that it was time for them to make a move.
This was a nature reserve. Although it was included as a temporary combat area for the two teams’ confrontation, the local troops needed to help collect all the bullets.
Forty-four comrades-in-arms fired 4,400 rounds of bullets. The local troops had to collect all of them.
“Assemble!” With the platoon leader’s whistle, the two squad leaders quickly assembled with their comrades. “Attention, turn back and march!”, the leaders shouted and then led their comrades to the destination.
It took a certain amount of time to clean up the bullets after more than 4,000 rounds of bullets were fired. Local troops helped save a lot of time for the two teams.
The results were out. Li Jinnian and Ye Jian both missed the target with 2 out of 200 rounds of bullets, ranking in the first place, while Xia Jinyuan and K7 missed 3 rounds, ranking second.
K7’s thin face stretched a bit tight, and the murderous aura on his body was a little bit revealing. He said to Xia Jinyuan: “It’s my fault, sorry, Captain!”
“Blue Bird’s shooting prowess is above all of us. It’s not bad that we are second.” Xia Jinyuan patted his comrade on the shoulder and smiled: “Next time, continue to work hard and reclaim the lost.”
Li Jinnian and Ye Jian missed two bullets due to the wind and snow affecting them as they changed their guns. He was in the same situation as the K7. They were all missed by the wind and snow when they changed their guns.
These were all uncontrollable factors, so mistakes made were understandable, but understanding the mistake was one thing because mistakes mainly indicated that the level of their shooting skills had not yet reached the best.
Like Blue Bird, she held the same gun like everyone else, and she fired shots at the same time as them. How could she achieve a 100% hit rate? The reason was that her shooting skills had reached the best, and she was not affected by the weather.
“Blue Bird is talented. Do you remember the mission in Pakistan last time? Normal people aim first and then finish shooting. She is different. When she pulls the trigger, she can directly aim at the target and complete the shooting. This is the biggest difference. A unique talent. It is difficult for us to have such a talent!”
Xia Jinyuan bent down and picked up two bullets from the snow. His eyebrows were slightly sharp and condensed, “We don’t have her talents, but we need to learn shooting skills from her. People can’t stand still at a spot, let alone find an excuse for our defeat. We must confess when we lose, but we absolutely cannot keep losing like this.”
The snow was not as heavy anymore; it floated in the sky, decorating the mountains. Xia Jinyuan, holding two bullets in his hand, looked at his comrade. His sharp eyes were like the cold light on a blade, scaring people: “So K7, we can admit defeat, but we can’t keep losing.”
Even if the person who surpassed them was Ye Jian, his girlfriend, he would not admit defeat because of this, let alone make excuses for himself. “Winning” was their consistent goal, and it would not change because of anyone.
Ye Jian knew that her 100 bullets were not wasted. When her army boots stepped on a bullet, she bent over to pick it up. When she raised her head, she saw Li Jinnian standing in front of a target in a vicious suit… He was reading their results.
Both misses were caused by him; he really needed to reflect on himself.
