Chapter 376: A good start
The soldiers of the Fifth Army's special service battalion shouted out the first batch of targets with loudspeakers and loud voices, and the Rongyi Division was the first to shoot targets, just like the sequence of the queue review.
A company of honorable 1st division soldiers trotted to the firing position.
In order to demonstrate fairness, the shooting range was fired in the very center of the training ground, the rifle target was about 100 meters, the light machine gun target was slightly farther away, and during the shooting, each 79 rifleman was issued a row of five rounds, and the Czech light machine gunner was issued a magazine of ammunition.
The soldiers carried empty guns, rifle cartridges and light machine gun magazines were prepared in advance in the firing positions.
After the shooting starts, shoot freely, hit the target in front of you, and must finish the issued bullets within the specified time, and the shooting time is four minutes.
In order to facilitate statistics and calculations, we do not distinguish between rifles and light machine guns, but add the number of rings of each target together and determine the results according to the number of rings.
This calculation method is a bit simple and crude, but fortunately, it is convenient, just add the number of rings of each target together.
An infantry company of the 1st Honor Division drove to the range with rifles and light machine guns, and the officers of the Fifth Army's special service battalion began to give various orders.
"Standing guns! Turn right!"
"Lie down! Get ready to shoot!"
The soldiers of the 1st Rong Division fell to the ground and set up their rifles and light machine guns, which had stone plates to back them for.
The sound of the command resounded throughout the training ground in the eastern suburbs, and the officers and men on the training ground were all staring at the officers and men of the Rongyi Division, who were the first division in the whole army to shoot targets, and naturally attracted great attention.
From the point of view of hardware and hard power, among the three divisions of the Fifth Army, the Rongyi Division is the most optimistic in terms of comprehensive combat effectiveness, and the whole division is dominated by veterans.
The 200th Division is slightly second, but it also has a very good foundation, ranking second, only the new 22nd Division, not only the number is a new division, but also almost new in personnel.
In fact, the arranged exercises and target shooting sequences were set according to the estimated combat effectiveness, with the 1st Rong Division being the first, the 200th Division being the second, and the New 22nd Division being the third, which represented the division of the combat effectiveness of each division by most of the officers of the Fifth Army.
Rong Yi Division is in front, and he also hopes to play a good result at the beginning.
Of course, in terms of actual combat effectiveness, thanks to the grassroots officers trained by the teaching brigade, the combat strength of the new 22nd Division is definitely not bad, but most people are not aware of it.
Before the appearance of specific combat examples, the division of combat effectiveness was determined by the allocation of troops and hardware, and the new 22 nd Division was obviously at a disadvantage in this respect, and in the minds of the officers, its combat effectiveness was certainly inferior to that of the other two divisions.
"Ready!" It was the soldiers of the special service company who commanded the shooting, and raised the red flag.
"Shoot!"
As soon as the "bang, bang, bang" red flag fell, fierce gunfire rang out on the shooting range.
The sound of rifle and light machine gun firing was intertwined, and the soldiers of the 1st Rong Division fought very quickly, and all five rifle rounds and 20 Czech light machine gun rounds were destroyed in about two minutes.
"Captain, the first division of Rong is fighting really fast." Mu Chao squatted on the ground and said to Zhang Wei.
The new 22nd Division was the last to fight, and the brothers of the teaching brigade had to sit and wait, and the officers and men of the 2nd Squadron were relieved of discipline and allowed to carry out gun maintenance and free rest before shooting.
"They have a lot of veterans, tell the brothers, don't fight too fast, just finish the fight within the specified time."
Zhang Wei doesn't want to be fast, but to be stable, and if he plays too fast, he will mess up the results.
"Understood."
On the other side of the shooting range, the officers and men of the Rongyi Division who had finished shooting the target were taken down, and the soldiers of the special service company took down all the targets and began to calculate the results.
Shooting is a very fast thing, and what really grinds is the preparation time and the later score statistics.
The soldiers of the special service company accumulated the number of targets hit by the Rong 1st Division to obtain the final total number of rings of the whole company.
Another voice came from the loudspeaker: "Honor the first division, the total number of targets is 920 rings." ”
"Good!"
The officers and men of the Honorary First Division at the training ground in the eastern suburbs applauded, and Zhang Wei also responded a few times.
Zhang Wei roughly estimated that a company of the Rong First Division had more than 70 rifles and nine light machine guns.
The point firing results of the Czech light machine gun were very unstable, the bullets could not all hit the target, and the bullets were widely dispersed.
In the case of rifles, there are more than 70 neutral rifles, and each rifle should have hit about 8 rings, plus the number of rings of light machine guns, and finally there is the total number of rings of 920.
Pretty good play!
After all, they are all veterans, and this shooting score is definitely an excellent result in the national army.
Those present, whether it was the inspection team or the officers of the Fifth Army, were quite satisfied with the good start of the Honorary First Division, and they played surprisingly well.
In fact, the Rong First Division played a little greasy, and these soldiers who went up to shoot targets were selected from the top of the whole division.
If it is replaced by a complete combat company, the Rongyi Division will not be able to achieve such good results, although there are many veterans, but at the level of a single combat company, it is still quite difficult to hit an average rifle shooting level of about 8 rings.
The next to go into battle was the 200th Division, and compared with the good results of the Honor 1st Division, the results of the 200th Division were a little ugly.
The infantry company of the 200th Division only scored about 600 rings, and some of the riflemen even missed the target.
The faces of the senior officers of the Fifth Army, who were smiling because of the honor of the First Division just now, all darkened their faces.
It is not unusual for Zhang Wei to score this result against the 200th Division, and the level played by the 200th Division is the real level of most units of the Fifth Army.
Strictly speaking, the 1st Honor Division was an outsider, and it was later transferred in, and the 200th Division and the New 22nd Division were the divisions formed by the Fifth Army itself.
In his previous training, Zhang Wei found that the level of the 200th Division's strength was not much better than that of the New 22nd Division, which was more than 80 percent of the recruits and about 60 percent of the 200 Division.
And this achievement is still at the top level in the national army!
After the unsatisfactory shooting of the 200th Division, it was finally the turn of the new 22nd Division.
"Second squadron, all there, ready to shoot!" Mu Chao shouted, gathering the officers and men of the second squadron.
"Go, let the brethren relax and fight." Mu Chao, the squadron leader led by Zhang Weichong, nodded, and only by relaxing can he give his best play.
"New 22nd Division, ready to shoot!"
The loudspeaker began to hum again, pointing out the last target division.
As with the previous process, the second squadron of target shooting pulled to the range and fired at the re-replaced target paper.
The shooting of the last division was not favored by most people, because they subconsciously believed that the overall combat effectiveness of the new 22 nd Division was not good.
The newly formed and later formed units have a large number of new soldiers, and when these factors are combined, their impression of the new 22nd Division will certainly not be good.
With a preconceived consciousness, most people did not have hope for the shooting of the new 22nd Division, and there were still people in the ranks of the 200th Division waiting to see the jokes.
Zhang Weijing sat in the position of teaching the brigade, and he believed in his soldiers.
The bullets fired by their own soldiers are definitely several times that of other troops, and each squadron has veterans who have fought all the way as the backbone!
With this confidence, Zhang Wei believes that at least it will not be worse than the soldiers of the 200th Division.
The gunfire stopped abruptly two minutes later, and the soldiers of the second squadron stood up, ready to be brought back. The soldiers of the special service battalion of the army picked up the targets, and the officers summarized and calculated the final number of targets.
"New Twenty-two Division, Nine Hundred and Ninety Rings!"
A loud voice came from the loudspeaker, even louder than when he reported to the Rong First Division.
"Good!" Zhang Wei and the officers and men of the teaching brigade, together with all the officers and men of the New 22nd Division present at the scene, cheered.
Target shooting, was the new 22nd Division, the "bottom third"!
