"Hua Hua, they will start training later, you are responsible for taking photos!" Sister Yu, the editor-in-chief of the military newspaper, said in a low voice.

"Okay!" Lou Hua nodded solemnly. Sister Yu is so kind and willing to support a newbie who has just come to practice. Although she is familiar with the army because of her background, there are many in the "Military News"

Senior reporters, and many war correspondents, could never get her turn. If the editor-in-chief is willing to give her such a good opportunity, she must perform well!

"Military Daily" is a weekly newspaper, with four editions of 16-32 pages. It is not sold to the outside world. The freshly released newspapers are sent to each army every week and are mainly used for internal publicity and communication within the army.

This new recruit training of the Special Forces Brigade is obviously an important event this week. The Special Forces Brigade has always been mysterious. Even other troops in the C Military Region know very little about them. On weekdays, unless it is an important event, the Special Forces Brigade does not accept interviews from the media.

, and the training of new recruits has to be open to the media, because the new recruits are selected from other units, and their every move is closely watched by the soldiers. If the training of the new recruits in the special brigade is published in the newspaper, it can encourage them.

More soldiers are very helpful in improving the morale of the entire military region, so they have such an opportunity for close contact.

However, after all, it is an important military camp and the management is very strict. Moreover, this is different from commendation meetings and the like. Matters involving the training ground are all military secrets. Therefore, even reporters from the "Military Daily" cannot take photos arbitrarily and must

Walk in the designated area and only shoot with telephoto in the periphery.

On the training ground, the soldiers were sweating profusely, carrying more than 30 kilograms of weapons and equipment, and ran around the training ground. Although it was just flat ground, it was already a very difficult task for the recruits. The whole process was almost

There was no time for rest, and physical exertion reached the limit. However, after the mobilization and encouragement given by Lou Xi just now, the soldiers were still working very hard, their bodies were numb, and they continued to rely on mental support, using their tenacious perseverance and a body tempered to steel, to fight resolutely.

mission accomplished.

The movements of the new recruits are not as smooth as those of the veterans, but their spirit is commendable. Everyone does not want to fall behind, and every step is firm and powerful. There are actually only a hundred or so of them, but the sound of "tapping" is running.

But it was like thousands of troops crossing the border, the blood in their bodies was boiling, sweat was shed, moving forward, forward, forward!

Although Lou Hua comes from a military family and has been in and out of military camps many times since he was a child, facing such a heated scene, the hand holding the camera still trembled slightly.

It’s truly a special force!

"Don't be nervous about painting, I'll show you a lesson first!" Editor-in-Chief Yu took the camera and gave her a demonstration, giving her some pointers and passing on her experience.

Lou Hua studied them carefully and memorized them one by one.

"Okay, you stay here and keep an eye on me. I'll go to the team leader's office and conduct an interview." Chief Editor Yu has a more important task.

Lou Hua nodded, "Okay, go ahead and leave this place to me!"

Before leaving, Editor-in-Chief Yu warned in a very tactful way, "The army has its own rules, but you also have to be smart. If you have a chance, it's best to go and see it from a close distance. Even if you can't take pictures, you can describe it in words when you come back."

Okay, do you understand?"

"Understood!" Lou Hua nodded repeatedly, just looking for an opportunity to get closer! It would be best to invite two people for an oral interview!

Editor-in-chief Yu smiled slightly, a bit like "a child can be taught", and turned around to leave.

Lou Hua worked even harder, and the training ground was in full swing. She was also excited and kept snapping pictures.

However, over and over again, there were pictures of soldiers running around the playground. They had to run 5 kilometers, but she couldn't keep filming one scene!

He gently put down the camera in his hand and frowned slightly.

What else can I take a picture of?

While Lou Hua was struggling, a small group of people suddenly appeared on the training ground. A rough count showed that there were only six or seven people.

Lou Xi called out a name in the ranks of veterans, "Ling Shaotang, come out!"

After saying this, Zuo Lingfeng walked out of the team, stood in front of Lou Xi, raised his hand and gave a standard military salute, "Please give instructions to the deputy captain!"

At this moment, they are not relatives, friends, or comrades-in-arms, but superiors and subordinates. They are absolute obedience in the army. Soldiers take obedience to orders as their bounden duty.

Lou Xi's eyes were also focused, without any personal feelings mixed in, and he ordered seriously, "You are responsible for the training!"

"yes!"

Zuo Lingfeng immediately led the seven or eight people to withdraw from the training ground and move to the shooting range.

Lou Hua's eyes immediately opened wide and he recognized Zuo Lingfeng. It turned out that he was also a member of the special brigade and a !

She doesn’t know much about the profession, but she has watched movies about it. She thinks every is amazing, and she feels that s and photographers are similar in that they both look through the lens.

Although things have different purposes, their lethality is also different.

Sniper means "unprepared, sudden attack". Snipers have become an indispensable and important role in today's special operations. They are often the decisive factor in special operations. Even an excellent

The operation itself may be the entirety of a special operation.

The second brother asked him to be responsible for training, so that means he must be very powerful, right?

Lou Hua couldn't help but be curious and followed him secretly, holding the camera and heading to the shooting range.

◎◎◎

Compared to the lively training ground, the shooting range is much quieter. There are only seven or eight people in the huge venue.

Zuo Lingfeng stood in the center of the field. He did not order the recruits to get their guns immediately, but motioned for everyone to sit down and form a circle.

Several recruits were confused.

The same goes for the paintings on the floor. They are suspicious and peeking from a distance.

Zuo Lingfeng sat on the ground, his side face shrouded in the thin morning light, a little blurry, but so chic.

With his tall and straight body, straight shoulder line, resolute profile, and faint smile at the corner of his mouth, he looks like a knight from a fairy tale who can confuse all living beings.

"Comrades, do you know what a is?" He seemed to be asking an idiotic question.

Several recruits were stunned and replied, "They are the people who shot from hidden fortifications!"

"A shooter who has undergone special training and mastered precise shooting, camouflage and reconnaissance skills!"

"The s equipped in the special brigade are the protectors of the entire action team! They are responsible for accompanying the team for observation and fire support. When the team is attacked by the enemy's long-range firepower and cannot receive assistance for a while, the should immediately carry out

Observe enemy fire, enter a favorable shooting position, and shoot the most threatening enemies one by one!"

"The should also be an 'escape expert' who selects the retreat route. He is obliged to provide the commander of the action team with the best retreat route and provide full cover. When necessary, the should also act as a lone hero,

Attract the enemy's firepower to your side to cover the transfer of large forces!"

"Snipers can not only shoot human targets, but also enemy combat equipment, such as vehicle fuel tanks, water tanks, tires, helicopter main rotors and tail rotors, and other communication equipment. After shooting,

Make them lose their fighting ability!"

"There are also weak links such as ammunition depots, oil depots, and headquarters, which can also become high-value tactical targets for s!"

"A should also have preparations and skills for close combat and killing!"

The recruits are indeed the best selected from each unit. They have not yet been trained, but their positioning as s is already very accurate.

However, this is only superficial.

Zuo Lingfeng smiled and nodded, his eyes becoming deeper.

He casually picked up a pebble on the ground, drew a rectangle, and said in a deep voice, "The location of the can be regarded as a small position. It is often designed as an observation point suitable for camouflage and concealment. It is about

3 meters, about 1 meter high.”

"In this small area, s have to lurk for a long time and independently complete field observation and tracking, map interpretation, intelligence collection and analysis, entry and retreat route arrangements, combat plan formulation and other preparations. More importantly,

He has no way of knowing when the enemy will appear. He only knows that at a certain moment, when a sudden and fierce decisive battle breaks out, he must win a decisive victory as quickly as a rabbit rises and a falcon falls."

"Before that, every minute and every second of waiting was torture, and it was full of thrilling atmosphere. It was a sharp contrast between long and short, loneliness and intense. It was no longer enough to be fully prepared simply by physiology and technology.

That’s it.”

"Since you guys can be picked in, I think your marksmanship must be flawless. However, a strong body, a steely will, and accurate marksmanship are just the basic qualities of a . Calmness and confidence

And courage are essential qualities for an excellent . How to measure and correct the trajectory of a gun, and how to master the timing of shooting, these can all be trained and accumulated. But if you want to stay in the end, the most important thing is,

You have to pass the psychological barrier!”

"Psychological barrier?" The recruits were a little confused.

"I was tested before I came here. My psychological quality is very good!"

"Me too. I answered all the questions asked by the psychiatrist. My score is the highest in the company!"

Zuo Lingfeng smiled slowly, laughing at their cheerfulness and their simplicity, and there was even a bit of envy in his smile.

The recruits were even more confused.

The same is true for the paintings on the floor in the distance. Eyes are wide open, ears are erect, and breathing is tightening unconsciously.

Zuo Lingfeng threw away the pebbles in his hand and used his palm to erase the traces he had just drawn on the ground. He smiled and said quietly, "The most accurate way to describe a is in five words, that is...

…Lonely and long.”

In the sky, the bright morning light shines on the entire earth, but there is suddenly a hint of darkness in the air, and the breeze blows, which is refreshing, but also suddenly a little cool.

Lou Hua shuddered inexplicably, and when she heard Zuo Lingfeng say these five words, her heartstrings suddenly tightened.

It was obvious that he was still the same person, with the same military uniform and the same face, but at this moment, she felt that this person was so erratic, like the wind, that she couldn't figure it out.

Zuo Lingfeng stood up, called the recruits to gather, and asked them to try their guns.

Among the recruits, there seemed to be two of them with high understanding. They were silent for a moment and asked Zuo Lingfeng, "Lieutenant Colonel Ling, was there a named Zuo Lingfeng in this special brigade?"

Zuo Lingfeng smiled softly, "Why are you asking about him?"

"Because he is a legend! My idol!"

Zuo Lingfeng patted the recruit on the shoulder and said, "As long as you work hard, you will become a legend in the future!"
