Chapter 96 Born to be a shooter
The two men stood in the open space by the river. Then Li Wentong took out the gun. After standard inspection of the firearm, he stood with the gun and talked to Yue Feng about using the gun. specifications come.
"This rifle is nothing else. It is used in a systematic way. I will demonstrate it to you. You can learn as much as you can.
According to the classification of shooting postures when we were in the army. There are several types, prone, kneeling, and standing.
If it is an ambush, the prone position has the highest hit rate, and the kneeling and standing positions will have a certain impact on the hit rate! br>
Let's go for a sneak attack. If we encounter a battle, there is almost no chance to prepare a shooting position while lying down.
But if you are lucky and can reach the target at a relatively close distance without being discovered, you must give priority to shooting from the prone position!
As for the remaining two, when the field of vision is not restricted, the kneeling position is slightly better than the fully standing position!
If you only have the opportunity to design a standing position, it is best to find a stable tree trunk or stone, which can effectively increase shooting stability. "
Li Wentong is worthy of being a veteran who has fought the southern monkeys. After arriving at the gun test site by the river, he immediately began to give Yue Feng some useful information, explaining and demonstrating the gun at the same time.
"Yes, yes, I remember!"
Yue Feng nodded repeatedly. In his last life, he played with guns basically from a wild background. To put it nicely, it was called stream of consciousness, just like shooting a slingshot. It relied entirely on feeling.
I have bought a hard thing in this life, and I have a professional "teacher" to teach me. I must continue to improve.
After briefly explaining the shooting posture, Li Wentong took out a pack of bullets from his backpack, opened the bullet inlet, and loaded the bullet with a bridge clip.
“56 and a half, the maximum ammunition capacity is ten rounds. You can load it with a bridge clip, or load a single shot from the top feed port. Unless you go into the mountains to hunt big prey, it is generally not recommended to wait for a long time to fire. If it is too tight, it will easily affect the life of the spring. Seven or eight rounds is more suitable!" Li Wentong simply demonstrated loading, and then loaded the bullet and reset it.
"Look at the thickest aspen tree directly in front of you!!" Li Wentong pointed at his shooting target, then raised the gun to his face, with three points and one line, and easily pulled the trigger.
Bang!
A gunshot sounded, and the smell of gunpowder immediately filled the surrounding area.
The bullet hit the target, but it was slightly to the left by about ten centimeters compared to the center point of the aim.
Li Wentong said nothing, changed his lying position and fired again.
After the fight this time, Li Wentong frowned slightly.
"What's wrong, uncle?" Yue Feng keenly noticed the changes in the other person's expression and asked curiously.
"There is a little problem with this mechanical sight!" Li Wentong said with certainty after firing only two bullets.
"Huh?" Yue Feng didn't understand what was going on here and was a little confused. The new gun should be quite accurate.
"It's okay. There was a small error during assembly. The clearance of the sight gauge was a little off. After hitting it for seventy or eighty meters, the impact point was off!"
While talking, Li Wentong relied on his own feeling to adjust the position of the watch ruler, and then activated it again.
After this shot, the bullet hit the middle of the tree trunk. Li Wentong took a deep breath and fired three more single shots.
The impact points of the last four bullets are very dense. Although they do not overlap, the distribution points are concentrated in a small circle about five or six centimeters in diameter.
"Okay, the sight is calibrated! Do you want to try it?" Li Wentong stood up, took off the gun belt from his body and handed it to Yue Feng.
"Okay! Let me try!" Yue Feng took the gun, imitated Li Wentong's lying position, and put the butt of the gun on his shoulder.
"Shoulders should be tight, three points and one line, aim intentionally, fire accidentally! When stimulating, pay attention to the rhythm of breathing!" Li Wentong thought Yue Feng was a rookie, so he explained in detail.
Yue Feng held the gun to his face, and then naturally aligned the crosshair with the notch of the rear sight. He aimed without much emphasis and just fired.
With a bang, a new bullet hole appeared about five centimeters above the impact point of Li Wentong's shot just now.
"Not bad, the first shot didn't miss the target, try again!" Li Wentong nodded, very satisfied with Yue Feng's performance.
Yue Feng found the feeling and naturally pulled the trigger again.
This time the impact point almost completely overlapped with the previous one, and the distance was less than one centimeter.
Yue Feng followed up with two more shots, emptying the ten rounds of bullets in the magazine.
The impact points of these four bullets are very densely distributed, and two of them even overlap almost completely.
Li Wentong said hello and walked quickly towards the big poplar tree. After seeing the impact point of the bullet at close range, he looked at Yue Feng, and his eyes changed a little.
If we follow the standard of the 100-meter chest target used in the army's shooting training, Yue Feng's four shots just now were all within the ten-ring circle.
"Okay, you kid! You've never touched a gun before, right?" Li Wentong asked in an uncertain tone.
Yue Feng smiled and shook his head.
"You are a promising marksman, and your shooting skills are so good! Reload the bullet and try the accuracy of the kneeling and standing positions!"
Yue Feng did as he was told, kneeling down. Zi and Lizi fired three rounds each.
The kneeling position is not suitable for me. The bullet travel is slightly larger, and it can have an accuracy of seven to eight rings. The standing position without support shooting is theoretically much less stable than the lying position, but in Yue Feng Here, the results are basically nine and ten rings for all three serves.
This kind of shooting accuracy, within a range of 100 meters, will basically not miss the target against prey of the size of roe deer or even wild boar.
"Hey hey hey! I feel that shooting with a gun is a bit similar to shooting a slingshot. If you aim, you can hit it by pulling the trigger!" Yue Feng said naively.
"Okay, so I thought that if you want to practice your marksmanship, you have to start with a few hundred rounds of bullets. Judging from your performance today, these bullets can be saved!" Li Wentong said.
"The relationship is great! Let's go back after a few more shots?"
"Okay!"
Yue Feng, who touched a gun for the first time in his life, shot out the remaining bullets before reluctantly putting down the gun.
“Let’s go back. We have guns. When the snow freezes a little, we will prepare to go up the mountain!”
“Okay!”
……
The two men finished testing the gun in the open space next to the woods by the river, and rushed home happily. When they returned to Yue Feng's house, they hadn't had lunch yet. Meng Yulan stewed a large pot of pheasant, rabbit and potatoes. Big stew.
"Dad, Mom! I bought the gun!" Yue Feng pushed the bicycle into the warehouse, then carried the gun bag and entered the house with Li Wentong.
"The road went well? Wen Tong, hurry up, get in the house and get on the kang!" Yue Lei heard the movement and came out. "It must go well. I, Uncle Li, will go out and march all the way to Tiecheng!" Yue Feng took the opportunity to flatter Li Wentong.
“Let me take a look at the gun!”
Yue Feng handed the gun to his father and saw Yue Lei taking the gun and playing with it carefully.
There is a saying that a man is a boy until he dies. This sentence is equally valid in the 1980s. This is half Yue Feng's dream, but it is not the dream of Yue Lei and Li Wentong.
While Yue Lei was holding the new gun and looking at it, Li Wentong next to him said: "I took Xiaofeng to the open space by the river to try out the gun. Xiaofeng is a natural-born gunman. The first You can hit the target easily by touching the gun, and after getting used to it, you can reach the level of 8th, 9th or even 10th level!"
"Really? This kid has never touched a gun before?" br>
Yue Feng smiled and scratched his head, and said modestly: "Hehehe, isn't this just random? My grandfather was pretty accurate at hunting birds back then. Dad, you should be good too!"
"I don't agree with you when you say this! Your grandfather was really accurate with his gun, but the old gun was blown out of the barrel. Otherwise, our family wouldn't have even a gun after being in the mountains for so many years!"< br>
"Now that I have it, I brought a hundred rounds of bullets with me when I bought the gun. Save some money. I should have enough bullets this winter!!" Yue Feng said, patting the bullets wrapped in kraft paper in his backpack.
"Okay, we have the gun. Just wait for the snow to freeze hard. Follow your Uncle Li and go up the mountain to try it out and see what the idea is!"
Yue Feng grinned: "Enter the newbie. Come on, whatever you want!”
“Stop talking, let’s get some wine with you.”
“Okay!”
...
Just when Yue Feng went to the city to buy back a gun and had a drink at home, the three brothers who went up the mountain could be considered to have experienced what Yue Feng said about letting an eagle after the snow and picking it up for free. What does it mean?
It snowed heavily all night. After the snow stopped at dawn, many small pheasants and other prey were buried in the snow nests. It snowed and it was not cold. After dawn, various small animals came out of the snow. They came out of their nests and left various traces in the snow.
In the past, when hawking in autumn, we relied on the two legs of the hawk to constantly search to catch prey.
After the snow falls, the difficulty of finding prey is greatly reduced.
Let’s not talk about anything else, just the hares. Xiao Tao mounted the iron-backed red eagle and followed the rabbit trails in the small vegetable garden. In just one hour, he found four 45-pound hares. jackrabbit.
The hare's path is quite interesting. The normal footprints go forward. If the footprints suddenly disappear, the rabbit is lying here less than one meter in front.
The record of catching rabbits by the iron-backed red eagle has already exceeded 100 due to Yue Feng's persistent training every day. Now when he sees rabbits, he basically catches them one by one without running away.
He went out before seven in the morning. Near noon, Xiao Tao’s satchel carrying prey was almost full. By three o’clock in the afternoon, the total number of hares caught that day had reached an exaggerated 14. .
On the other side, the two brothers Xiaowen and Xiaowu who were going up the mountain also started the chicken picking mode.
After the snow just fell, the feathers of the flying dragons and sand half chickens were wetted, and their mobility was greatly reduced. Many flying dragons were leaning three to two meters in front of them, unable to fly.
Whether it is a chick hawk or a big green kite, catching these prey usually involves pinching them with both hands, let alone getting as close as two or three meters to launch a surprise attack. Basically, one catch can be accurate and the efficiency is extremely high. , and it doesn’t consume too much of the eagle’s energy.
Following the traces left by the flying dragon, sand half chicken and pheasant, you can catch one in a while. That is to say, there is snow on the mountain, and the eagle handle walkway will also be affected to a certain extent. Otherwise, we will catch one today. The prey should at least be carried home with a sack.
At around four o'clock in the evening, the three men who went out to watch the hawks came back.
After seeing today's total harvest, even though Yue Feng had already been mentally prepared to know that today would be a bumper harvest, he couldn't help being surprised.
Xiao Tao hunted 16 rabbits and 7 pheasants alone.
Xiaowen, a single chicken eagle, 13 sand half chickens, and 26 flying dragons. 7 pheasants
Xiaowu, a single big green kite, 21 sand half chickens, 32 flying dragons, and two hen pheasants.
It is very easy to find prey, it is very easy to get close to it, and it is very easy for a falcon to control the prey's struggle. These factors are all gathered together, so that the total number of prey for everyone can almost reach the normal level. Double the quantity.
"Hahaha, Brother Feng, I have been flying eagles for so long, and today I have a lot of fun! It's almost the same as picking it up for free. I chase the prey according to the footprints. If I get up, I can basically get a rabbit within ten meters. Come on! The eagle has pressed the rabbit there, and the fur all over its body is still loose. It doesn’t take any effort at all!”
Xiao Tao reluctantly tied the big red eagle to the pole and said very coquettishly.
Xiaowen also looked excited: "Xiaowu and I are about the same! It snowed, and the chickens on the mountain seemed to be frozen. The eagles chased them out, and the chickens couldn't fly very much. !”
Yue Feng smiled: “It’s normal. It snowed in previous years, and you still used the net to catch the flying dragon! But the temperature is starting to cool down, and the temperature of the snow has completely cooled down! , Ying's life has begun to be difficult!"
Xiaowu looked into Yue Feng's eyes and asked: "What?"
"It's too cold, Ying needs to use up more physical reserves. To resist the cold, if you carry it hard and continue to release it, the eagle will easily fall. If it falls hard, it will not be able to work!
Tomorrow morning, after everyone has eaten, I plan to use plastic sheeting and wood to build a greenhouse under the eaves of the main house! "
"This is easy to do. Just buy some foreign nails and thick plastic sheeting. We have many people, so we can do it in a few hours! "
Yue Feng nodded: "First count the prey, and then I will go to deliver the goods. There is snow on the road today, so we have to leave early! ”
After a brief greeting, everyone got busy, counting the number of prey, and then put them into wicker baskets and fixed them with ropes. There were so many rabbits today that it even took two baskets to fit them in.< br>
After saying hello, Yue Feng pushed the car out and headed straight for the Fengcheng Coal Mine Canteen
By the time Yue Feng arrived at the Second Canteen, Niu Fusheng was already waiting in the canteen warehouse.
Seeing Yue Feng coming to deliver the goods, Niu Fusheng strolled over with a Ginseng brand cigarette in his mouth.
"It's not easy to walk on the road, isn't it? Want one?" Niu Fusheng took out a cigarette and started to refill it for Yue Feng.
Yue Feng waved his hand to show that he didn't know how to do it, and said with a smile: "The snow is not compacted, so riding is okay. Waiting for it to melt and then freeze again will be uncomfortable. If you don't ride well, you will probably fall!< br>
It just snowed on the mountain today, and we caught a lot of prey. If the reception is not very frequent recently, we will have to use these game in a coordinated way
I'm afraid that if the weather changes and I can't go up the mountain to get out of the siege, don't let the canteen delay things! "
Niu Fusheng nodded: "I have also considered this. Hey, do you see the pile of new cages I made at the foot of the wall? These flying dragons, rabbits, pheasants and other game animals can actually be raised for a while with a little getting used to.
I try to keep the game and live poultry reserves in the warehouse within a safe range, so that even if you can't go up the mountain, you won't be greatly affected in the short term!
By the way, I have good news for you. The trick you gave me last time has been paid and agreed! ”
Hearing this, Yue Feng’s heart moved slightly.
The first chapter today, four thousand words, there will be two chapters later
