When you're in the Wolf Pack, your ability to obey orders becomes stronger.

Chapter 249 My 30-meter accuracy is super high!

Xu Ge, who possesses master-level rapid-fire skills, naturally has memories related to silencers in his mind.

In fact, the role of silencers has been greatly exaggerated in movies and TV dramas.

In reality, without using low-power subsonic bullets, neither pistols nor rifles can achieve the silent or low-noise effect seen in movies and TV shows through silencers.

The reason why military and police personnel still choose to use silencers in actual combat is that although they cannot hide the sound, they can indeed suppress the sound of gunfire, thus making it impossible for the opponent to accurately determine the location by sound.

In actual combat, the Wolf Brigade members rarely use suppressors because it would affect the performance of the 191 assault rifle, such as muzzle velocity or ballistic stability.

However, Xu Ge knew a little-known fact: the muffler's short protrusion actually served a similar function to a muzzle brake.

Simply put, because the barrel of the 191 short-barreled rifle is relatively short, adding this device increases the air pressure inside the chamber, causing the bolt to move faster than during normal firing, thereby increasing the firing rate.

However, this improvement is very small and negligible for most people, especially in single-shot mode.

Therefore, no one present thought there was anything wrong with Chen Tao's short gun having a silencer installed.

But Xu Ge understood that this subtle improvement was different for experts. For example, if he used a rifle with a silencer, his single-shot rate would definitely be faster than when he didn't!

Over there, Zheng Tiannan immediately went up to chat with Chen Tao after hearing him say that he used to be from the Wolf Brigade.

"You used to work at Wolf Pack? How come I've never heard of you before?" Zheng Tiannan asked curiously.

Chen Tao smiled and said, "I was in the Wolf Brigade during my first year as a recruit, and I haven't come back since I was promoted to officer in my second year."

"No wonder."

Zheng Tiannan suddenly realized, and then asked, "Since we're here, shall we get started?"

"No problem, how about shooting at the 30-meter steel plate target?" Chen Tao asked Chen Wei, "You're the one who'll shoot, right?"

“Yes! I have no problem. Five rounds each of rifle and pistol, unloaded!” Chen Wei took off his rifle.

Chen Tao nodded and walked towards the shooting position: "Okay, let's prepare the shooting range."

"Wait a moment!"

Xu Ge suddenly spoke up, looking at Chen Tao, "Captain Chen, since it's a competition, we must be fair. Let's remove the silencers before we start!"

Wu Jun, who was standing nearby, immediately shouted, "Are you deliberately trying to cause trouble? What difference does it make whether you remove the silencer or not?"

The others around him were also puzzled as to why Xu Ge made this request. Even Zheng Tiannan and Chen Wei looked at Xu Ge with some curiosity.

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry, I forgot!"

Unexpectedly, Chen Tao stopped Wu Jun from continuing to speak, and said while disassembling the muffler, "Yes, yes, since it's a fair competition, I really have to take this thing off."

Now, everyone was filled with questions.

What are these two saying? What do they mean?
Chen Tao, who was disassembling the muffler, suddenly paused, looked up at Xu Ge, and said, "This comrade seems to know a lot about this stuff?"

Wu Jun chimed in, "It was this kid who spoke up earlier, and only then did the Wolf Brigade agree to this competition. I guess he really does have some skills."

Chen Tao nodded, said nothing, and went straight to the firing position.

Several members of the special operations team have begun setting up the site and repainting the steel plate targets.

Seeing that Chen Wei was a little nervous, Xu Ge went over and patted him on the shoulder, whispering, "Don't feel any pressure. Our Wolf Brigade will definitely not lose."

"That's OK!"

Upon hearing Xu Ge's words, Chen Wei instantly relaxed and began loading bullets while whistling.

The range staff could have stopped the competition, but perhaps also wanting to witness a showdown between the Wolf Brigade and the Special Operations Brigade, they not only didn't stop it, but instead volunteered to act as referees.

Two staff members walked up behind Chen Tao and Chen Wei with timers, and the safety officer raised a flag.

Everyone looked at Chen Tao and Chen Wei.

drop!
The command flag was suddenly waved down, and the two men's left hands moved almost simultaneously.

Click!Click!
The sound of rifles being chambered rang out simultaneously, and the two men simultaneously took up their guns, pointing them at the steel plate target 30 meters away.

Da da da da da!
Dang Dang Dang Dang!
The crisp sound of bullets hitting steel plates echoed across the firing range.

Everyone stared intently at the two contestants, but Xu Ge's pupils suddenly contracted.

He kept watching Chen Tao from a slight angle behind him. With the help of his skill, his eyes were able to capture moving targets with the same level of accuracy as a high-speed camera, so he clearly saw all of Chen Tao's movements.

The opponent's loading action was very familiar. He placed his left palm flat, pushed the bolt back with the base of his palm to load the gun, and then thrust the gun out with his right hand as if it were spring-loaded.

It's exactly the same set of movements that Guo Yuanshuai taught me!
Before Xu Ge could think further, Chen Tao had already let go of his 191 short rifle and reached for the holster on his thigh with his right hand.

Draw your gun and fire.

Clap clap clap clap!
Dang Dang Dang Dang!
If the two were about the same speed in the rifle round, then Chen Tao was clearly much faster than Chen Wei in the pistol round.

Before Chen Wei could even draw his gun, Chen Tao had already shot the first two targets.

"Wow!"

A gasp of surprise rang out from the crowd.

Everyone could see the obvious difference.

"Damn it! They cheated!" Zhou Meng suddenly shouted. "His pistol was loaded beforehand!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd immediately erupted in uproar.

"Huh? What happened? Was the pistol loaded prematurely?"

"I don't know! I didn't notice!"

"Huh? I don't think I saw that special operations officer load a gun."

"Really? That's too much!"

Upon hearing this, the special operations team immediately started cursing: "What the hell are you talking about? You just spouting nonsense, huh? If you can't see clearly, don't spread rumors!"

At this moment, the two athletes had finished shooting and were looking down to check their guns.

Chen Tao didn't react to the noise behind him. Instead, he looked at the staff next to him and gestured for them to announce the results.

"Target number one, 10 shots, all hits, 3.15 seconds!"

"Target number two, 10 shots, all hits, 2.81 seconds!"

!!!

There was a moment of silence, which was immediately filled with exclamations.

"Holy crap! 2.81 seconds?! That's already broken the army group's record, right?!"

Someone shouted, and immediately a murmur of discussion arose.

Zhou Meng shouted at the top of his lungs, "They cheated! I saw it clearly; the pistol was loaded beforehand."

Wang Long and Yuan Chuan immediately chimed in, "Yes! We saw it too, he fired directly..."

"Stop talking, Captain Chen didn't cheat!"

Xu Ge suddenly interrupted the Wolf Brigade members, saying in a deep voice, "He fired with one hand!"

"what?"

Not only were Zhou Meng and his group stunned, but everyone around them looked at Xu Ge, none of them understanding what he meant.

Xu Ge didn't want to explain; he knew he had truly met his match this time!
Chen Wei's 3.15-second performance was already a surprise to him, but Chen Tao was even more impressive, achieving a time of 2.81 seconds!
This achievement has surpassed the Wolf Brigade record set by Guo Yuanshuai three years ago!

Actually, due to the angle, Xu Ge didn't see clearly Chen Tao's action of drawing the pistol, but he had excellent hearing and heard a very clear click when the other's arm suddenly lifted up.

Xu Ge remembered clearly that Chen Tao's left hand was still in front of his chest, and there was no other movement from the rest of his body. So there was only one explanation: the other party loaded the pistol with one hand!

Even after learning about Chen Tao's method of drawing his gun, Xu Ge was still incredibly shocked.

In his view, single-handed loading only exists in theory. He himself understands the principle behind it, which is to use inertia to make the slide of the pistol move backward to complete the loading action.

But he couldn't do it.

He had never seen anyone else, including Thor, do it.

Chen Wei walked over with a grim expression and looked at Xu Ge: "Are you sure he really didn't cheat?"

Xu Ge: "No."

"Damn! They've even made a one-handed gun! Is that some kind of insane thing?"

Everyone on the Wolf Brigade's side looked extremely grim.

Such a powerful opponent makes it impossible to even think about defeating them.

Wu Jun looked over with a smug expression: "What, you're not convinced? Kid, aren't you very good? Come on up here!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Ge walked out immediately: "Alright, then I'll test Captain Chen's marksmanship."

Wu Jun: ? ? ?
This kid actually came up?

Chen Tao also became interested: "Great, let's have a race! You can tell I'm using one hand to fire, so I should be faster than the last one!"

Xu Ge smiled and said, "I can't guarantee how fast it will be, but it will definitely be more accurate."

Chen Wei: ? ? ?
Zhou Meng: ? ? ?
Chen Tao: ? ? ?
Everyone was stunned by Xu Ge's words.

Wu Jun laughed: "Kid, are you scared out of your wits? You guys were the ones who suggested comparing rapid-fire shooting, weren't you? What, now you think you can't compete and want to compare marksmanship instead?"

Xu Ge shook his head and looked at Chen Tao: "Aren't we all about absolute speed and absolute accuracy these days? What I mean is, we need to compete on both speed and accuracy! Captain Chen, what do you think?"

Chen Tao was somewhat surprised: "That's an interesting way to put it. How do you plan to compete?"

Xu Ge: "Replace all the steel plate targets with chest ring targets!"

hum!
After Xu Ge finished speaking, the people around him stirred again.

Everyone looked excited.

Wow, this is getting more and more exciting!

"There are just 20 new target papers left here!"

One sentence from a staff member completely ignited the enthusiasm of the crowd, and everyone immediately started shouting.

"This is great! It tests both marksmanship and speed!"

"Great, this is going to increase the difficulty of combined rapid-fire!"

"A duel between masters is truly exciting; they're really trying to create something special..."

Chen Tao smiled and looked at Xu Ge: "Okay! We'll do it your way!"

. . .

. . .

At this time, more and more people gathered around the shooting range, roughly no less than five hundred people, basically most of the competitors had come.

Several school officers were even spotted in the crowd, indicating that the competition had caught the attention of the training base's leaders.

The range staff were replacing 20 steel plate targets with chest ring targets, while Xu Ge was pulled aside by the Wolf Brigade members.

"Xu Ge, your advantage is speed, how come you can't compare to that guy's accuracy?" Chen Wei said anxiously. "Don't be impulsive, switch back right away!"

“Yeah, Xu Ge, your shooting has always been… a bit inconsistent, and you haven’t touched a gun in so long, you definitely can’t compare to them!” Zhou Meng also advised.

Seeing that Zheng Tiannan and Wang Long were about to speak, Xu Ge quickly raised his hand to signal everyone to stop: "I said, can't you guys have a little more faith in me?"

"We certainly have confidence in your rapid-fire ability, but..."

"My marksmanship is indeed average, but that's beyond 200 meters. Actually, I'm extremely accurate at 30 meters!" Xu Ge laughed.

Everyone:? ? ?
Zheng Tiannan could hardly believe it: "Really?"

Xu Ge didn't answer, but instead scanned his surroundings and suddenly shouted, "I, Xu Ge, solemnly declare that I guarantee I will not be defeated by anyone in the upcoming competition. If I fail to do so, I will train extra hard for a week without sleep!"

A flash of light appeared on the token, and the military order officially took effect.

This time he really went all out, directly choosing to announce the content of version one.

The whole place was in an uproar.

Everyone, including Chen Tao and the entire special operations team, stared at Xu Ge in astonishment.

"This private has quite the nerve!"

"What are they doing? Is this some kind of pledge?"

"Damn! How arrogant!"

After saying this, Xu Ge ignored the stunned Wolf Brigade members behind him, took his Type 191 assault rifle from behind his back, and went to the firing position.

Chen Tao, who was loading bullets, turned to look at him: "Your name is Xu Ge? I feel like I've heard that name somewhere before?"

Xu Ge also began loading his weapon. He didn't answer, but instead asked, "Captain Chen, did you learn how to draw your rifle in the Wolf Brigade?"

Chen Tao nodded: "I specifically called my old squad leader two years ago to ask for advice."

"Your old squad leader?"

"Yes! He's the king of soldiers in your Wolf Brigade. You've definitely heard of him when I mention his name, Guo Yuanshuai!"

Xu Ge: ...

"I've not only heard of him, but I'm actually quite familiar with him!"

When he first saw Chen Tao draw his gun, the first person he thought of was his own squad leader, but he quickly dismissed that thought.

The reason is that Chen Tao said he had been in the Wolf Brigade when he was just a recruit.

At that time, the standard rifles used in the army were Type 95 rifles, so it was impossible for Chen Tao to learn the Type 191 rifle's drawing motion from Guo Yuanshuai.

So that's how it is!

Did I run into another senior student?

“Xu Ge, I heard what you just said in front of everyone. I suppose you are very confident in yourself.”

Chen Tao had finished loading the ammunition and said with a smile, "Then you'd better get serious, I won't hold back from here!"

Xu Ge picked up his gun and nodded: "You too!"

After the safety officer confirmed that both parties were ready, he raised the command flag high.

The entire arena fell silent, with thousands of eyes fixed on the two figures on the field.

drop!
Click!

Da da da da da!
Xu Ge and Chen Tao simultaneously pushed the breechblock back with their left hands, and a burst of gunfire rang out.

Many people started blinking, thinking they were seeing things.

How come these two people are doing the exact same thing?
