Zhong Rui's eyes also fell on Hou Jun's military rank - he was just a sergeant.
"how?"
Hou Jun looked behind Zhong Rui.
"There is no one in your brigade? You are here to fight for honor, and you haven't even changed your partner."
Zhong Rui's face turned slightly red.
Hou Jun was right. In fact, he now experienced the same feeling that Hou Jun had when he was in the Tigers.
In the past, Hou Jun was the only one in the Tiger Regiment. Whenever there was an annual group army competition, and when there was competition for honor, Hou Jun would inevitably be sent to fight to win back one or two banners for his regiment.
Zhong Rui said: "Old monitor, are you still angry?"
Hou Jun shook his head: "No, I'm not angry at all."
This answer also surprised Zhong Rui.
Hou Jun used to be very stingy.
Ever since he left the Tigers and went to the Blood Wolf Brigade, every time he saw him he only had the last word - hum!
He looked at his old monitor with some disbelief.
This time, he somewhat believed it.
Because he could not see the cold disgust in Hou Jun's face before, but saw a kind of transparency after seeing the world, and a kind of peace after going through twists and turns.
"Old monitor, I..."
He wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Hou Jun.
"Perform your best later. We haven't met on the field for two years. Let's see if you can beat me this time. I'm going to prepare. We'll see you on the shooting ground later."
After Hou Jun finished speaking, he left without giving Zhong Rui a chance to talk any more.
Looking at Hou Jun's back, Zhong Rui felt threatened for the first time.
When he met Hou Jun in the martial arts arena before, he could always feel Hou Jun's aggressiveness, but it was only emotionally aggressive, which actually made him feel more at ease and more confident.
This time he could not see Hou Jun's emotional oppression, but he felt an invisible pressure. For the first time, Zhong Rui felt that he was not completely sure of victory.
The exchange match soon kicked off. According to the procedure, this time the two brigades each sent ten sniper teams, with ten teams playing each time, and each brigade had five teams.
The first subject conducted was "Cold Bore Shooting".
"Cold-bore shooting", as the name suggests, is the first shot fired during a mission, that is, the shot is fired while the gun barrel is in a cooling state.
In fact, this subject used to be more focused on by SWAT personnel, because when performing missions, due to the nature of the mission, if SWAT snipers miss a hit, there is still a certain chance that military snipers can quickly fire a second round for follow-up fire, while police snipers can
The chance of a second follow-up shot is almost zero.
Not only that, police snipers also need to bear corresponding responsibilities once they make a mistake.
Of course, in modern special operations, the military's special forces not only participate in past raids and other tasks, but also undertake some rescue missions, which are similar in nature to special police.
Therefore, in sniper competitions, there is usually a cold-bore shooting subject, which requires contestants not to shoot warm bullets, but to take out the sniper rifle from their carrying equipment and shoot immediately.
For subject judging, some competitions give shooters two or three opportunities to shoot, but the scores for the second and third shots are significantly lower than the first time, while some competitions stipulate cold-bore shooting conditions
Failure to hit will result in zero points or even direct elimination.
The reason why cold-bore shooting is necessary is that sniper rifles have more or less problems with hot and cold bias, that is, the point of impact of the second round and the first round will shift due to different barrel temperatures and conditions in the chamber.
This problem of hot and cold bias cannot be completely eliminated. In most cases, the warhead of cold-bore shooting will be lower and the range will be closer; however, this is not constant, so snipers must marry well in cold-bore shooting.
The first premise is to be extremely familiar with the ballistics of your own gun, and the second is to adopt a more secure aiming method.
If your gun shoots cold-bore and seven out of ten shots are 5 centimeters below and to the right, and three shots are 5 centimeters above and to the left, you have to make a choice during the game - bet that the shot will be below and to the right.
Make an upper-left correction, or bet it is upper-left and make a lower-right correction?
Faced with this situation, different snipers will have different correction options, and each correction method has its own advantages and disadvantages.
Zhong Rui is a very confident person, and Hou Jun knows this.
Now both the Blood Wolf Brigade and the Tiger Brigade know that the final point of competition must be between the two masters and disciples, Hou Jun and Zhong Rui.
When the first batch came on stage, Zhong Rui got on, but Hou Jun didn't, so he was in the second batch.
Jiang Cheng looked at Zhong Rui on the firing line for a long time, then turned around and asked Hou Jun: "Old squad leader, what is the deviation of his cold-bore shooting record?"
Hou Jun didn't even think about it and told Jiang Cheng the answer: "0."
"ah?!"
Jiang Cheng was startled.
The distance of cold-bore shooting is 300 meters, and the scoring method for shooting is also very strange. Only one shot is fired, and the points are scored according to the deviation value. The smaller the deviation, the higher the score.
Therefore, being able to achieve 0 deviation is already the highest score, which is simply incredible.
Jiang Cheng had previously thought that no matter how powerful Zhong Rui was, he was just the squad leader's apprentice. He was also taught by squad leader Hou Jun. Even if it didn't work out, he would still have a chance of winning.
But this kind of precision...
His heart suddenly went cold.
"What?" Hou Jun noticed the change in Jiang Cheng's face, so he asked him: "You have no confidence?"
Jiang Cheng forced a smile and said: "That's not true, but I just think this deviation is too... too outrageous."
Hou Jun said: "It's because you are not good at studying that your good eyesight has been blinded in vain."
After finishing speaking, he sighed and added: "Actually, even if we exclude me, there is still someone who can achieve this result."
After that, he glanced in the direction of Li Zheng outside the court.
On the shooting ground line, the red flag in the hand of the on-site commander fell, and then the whistle sounded.
Not long after, gunshots were fired from the target position one after another.
Everyone onlookers stretched their necks and looked in the direction of the target, as if they could see the results earlier.
In fact, they can't see anything clearly, it's just a psychological effect.
Hou Jun still watched with cold eyes, sitting there like an old monk in meditation, even half-closing his eyes.
It wasn't until after a while that he heard the command "Second Group Stand Up" that he opened his eyes, picked up his gun, straightened his clothes, and then took the magazine containing a live ammunition from the security guard.
.
No one knew the results of the previous group. Jiang Cheng was a little anxious and couldn't help but ask Hou Jun: "Old monitor, how much do you think Zhong Rui deviated this time?"
Hou Jun looked at Jiang Cheng and sighed again.
Speaking of stable mentality, Jiang Cheng and Li Zhengke are really far apart.
What snipers fear most is impatience, and Jiang Cheng has it all.
