In the days before the martial arts competition, Wu Qing spent two to three hours every day instructing Bai Xinyu to shoot, especially the knowledge of wind speed and ballistic calculation in snowy weather. Xin Yu is not stupid, but he just doesn't like to learn, but now he is holding back his energy to win against Yu Fengcheng, and he is studying and training with the mentality of looking at death as if he were at home. He was studying ballistics books there, and that kind of diligence was the only thing that Mr. Bai had in his life.
The martial arts tournament has finally begun.
When the leaders of the military region inspected the officers and soldiers of the regiment, the cooking class did not participate. They were too busy preparing to eat, but from the kitchen, they could hear the loud and clear roar of the soldiers. It is inspiring, even if you don't need to watch it, you can feel the mighty spirit of the soldiers of the Republic just by listening to it with your ears.
The competition on the first day was all about physical events. As soon as the cooking class was free, they would rush to the playground to watch the fun, long-distance running, Sanda, and obstacles. All of them competed brilliantly. It was no less than the Olympic Games. The barracks, which had been dull for more than half a year, became lively because of this martial arts tournament.
Holding two cans of drinks, Bai Xinyu found Feng Dongyuan and Qian Liang in a twist and turns. Both of them participated in the project, but one is over, the other is tomorrow, and now they are watching the excitement.
Bai Xinyu stuffed the drink into Qian Liang's hand, "Hey, what about the obstacles?"
Qian Liang laughed and said, "Don't mention it, I got the third from the bottom."
Feng Dongyuan said with a smile: "The most important thing is to participate."
"What is it better now? Cross-country with heavy loads?"
"Um."
"Our class..." Bai Xinyu realized something was wrong, and changed his words: "Who will join Class 3?"
"Batur."
"Ah? Him?" Bai Xinyu's impression of Batur was still that Uyghur boy who was over 1.7 meters tall, with big eyes like a doll and cute dimples.
"Don't underestimate him, he is really not easy in terms of endurance, here, they are back."
Cross-country people with weights have come back after running 10,000 meters. The equipment on their bodies combined exceeds 30 kilograms. This is a considerable test for physical fitness. It's hard to say. He saw three or two soldiers running from the depths of the poplar forest with heavy equipment on their backs, and Bai Xinyu immediately recognized the shortest one among them, it must be Batur.
Liang Xiaomao shouted: "Hey, hey, hey, everyone, get ready to cheer for Batur."
Big Bear said: "I have a loud voice, everyone shout after me."
"it is good."
Batur is currently ranked fourth. The average height of the first three is half a head taller than him. They are all tall and big. He is the only one who is small. The equipment on him is like a child carrying rice. It always makes people feel a little unbearable, but Batur clenched his teeth, his eyes were determined, and even though his body was covered with sweat, he still started to speed up slowly at the final sprint.
"Batur, come on! Batur, we must win!" Big Bear shouted.
"Batur, come on! Batur, we must win!" The people in the third class roared vigorously, and Bai Xinyu also shouted at the top of his voice.
The comrades-in-arms of other competitors were naturally not to be outdone, and they also cheered for their comrades.
When there were more than 100 meters away from the finish line, Batur accelerated his speed and strenuously headed towards the finish line. He overtook two people at once and ran to the second place.
Everyone in the third class was so excited that their hearts were pounding, he was only one meter away from the first place, as long as he worked harder...
The soldier in front arrived at the finish line one step ahead of Batur, and the distance between the two was only three or four steps away. Everyone sighed in disappointment, but they ran over immediately, handing water, wiping sweat. , Batur was so tired that he fell to the ground. He was so out of breath that he couldn't speak, so he just smirked and looked very happy.
Bai Xinyu felt his blood boil, thinking that he would stand on the field tomorrow, would he also experience such a thrilling competition, could he beat Yu Fengcheng
Feng Dongyuan said: "How about it, our little Batur is amazing, you see he is the smallest, and it is the most difficult to carry weight, but he can really run."
Bai Xinyu admired it sincerely, "Amazing." He said, "Who else is competing in class three today?"
"Several of them, Yu Fengcheng, Daxiong, Liang Xiaomao... Hey, aren't you on good terms with Yu Fengcheng? Why didn't you go to see him play?"
Bai Xinyu slandered that Yu Fengcheng was only a fool, he said: "I'm not free, I'm busy..." He couldn't hold back, and asked: "How does he compare?"
"Didn't you listen to the radio?" Qian Liang took a sip of his drink, "This kid is really crazy. He has won four first places in the team, one second, and one third in the six events he has competed so far today." , Hey, if you don’t say that people are more popular than others, you are not afraid that they are handsome and have a family background, but you are afraid that they are handsome and have a family background, and you are more powerful than you.”
Hearing this, Bai Xinyu was so jealous that his teeth ached.
Feng Dongyuan smiled and said: "Fengcheng is really working hard. It's okay not to be convinced. The squad leader must be very happy to have such a soldier who can take on a lot of projects in the third class. I'm afraid this year's advanced class will live in our class."
Qian Liang said enviously: "I don't know where he got his energy. If he wants to go up, why did he give up going to the military academy? If he doesn't want to go up, why is he working so hard?"
Bai Xinyu asked: "How did you know that he gave up going to military school?"
"Hey, on the first day of enlisting in the army, I overheard the company commander chatting with the instructor at the train station." Qian Liang hooked their necks and said quietly: "I heard what they said, and I guessed that Yu Fengcheng must have a background. , After much deliberation, isn’t there only one Yu in the Military Commission, you understand.”
Feng Dongyuan was shocked, and the volume dropped several degrees, "No, it's impossible, it's really that person's grandson, how could he come to Xinjiang to serve as a soldier."
Bai Xinyu swallowed, he knew it, but he couldn't say, isn't Yu Fengcheng the precious grandson of that person, who gave up the military academy so convulsively and went to such a remote place in Xinjiang to serve as a soldier because of his great uncle , hum, there is something wrong.
Qian Liang shrugged, "I don't know either. I just guessed like this. It may not be true. Just listen to it as gossip and don't tell others."
Feng Dongyuan nodded, he didn't really believe it in his heart, so he didn't take it seriously.
Bai Xinyu thought at the time, if he and Yu Fengcheng met in places like Beijing instead of in the army, without the special environment here, how would Yu Fengcheng treat him? Either just be a nod acquaintance with him, between the princelings, face-saving is enough, or they may dismiss him at all, after all, the background difference between the two is quite big, anyway, they will definitely not fall in love with him at a glance , out of the army, back to the world of feasting and feasting, there is no such thing as a beautiful man, how could Yu Fengcheng be particularly interested in him. Thinking of this, Bai Xinyu felt a little sad. Yu Fengcheng came to provoke him because he had no choice. Although he looked down on him at the same time, but at the same time thought that he was the only one who was right for him. It's just friends in a relationship, petting each other's birds, he didn't suffer a loss, so he just found a free duck, who said there are no women here, thinking about it this way, he felt much more at ease.
After the first day of the competition, Yu Fengcheng became the man of the whole group and returned with a full load. Although he was given some worthless gadgets after winning the prize, such as thermos pots and water tanks, when eating at night, But to get a glass of wine, a word of praise from the chief, and the attention of the entire regiment, to many soldiers, this is far more precious than any prize.
Bai Xinyu looked at Yu Fengcheng who was called to toast at the table of the leaders of the military area. His high-spirited and handsome appearance made many people feel ashamed. At that time, Bai Xinyu was standing in the back kitchen passing the dishes, and the distance between the two was only about ten meters. But the cafeteria was full of people, no one noticed those people who were busy in the kitchen, it was even more impossible for Yu Fengcheng to see him, obviously the distance was not too far, but it was the first time for Bai Xinyu to feel the relationship between him and Yu Fengcheng. The gap is very, very large. Yu Fengcheng was making progress at flying speed, but he was just running at a leisurely pace. If this continued, there would be a gap between them. He would never be able to lift his head up in front of Yu Fengcheng, and would always be looked down upon. Bai Xinyu secretly clenched his fists, he must win back his breath in front of Yu Fengcheng.
In the afternoon of the second day, there was a shooting competition. Bai Xinyu stood nervously on the shooting range, feeling very nervous.
Suddenly, someone patted him on the back. Bai Xinyu looked back and met a pair of playful eyes. Compared to his uneasiness, Yu Fengcheng was very relaxed, as if he had a winning ticket in his hands. I really hate him. .
Yu Fengcheng said: "Seeing you like this, are you very nervous?"
Bai Xinyu snorted, "Where did you see that I'm nervous, I wish I could start quickly and let you see my strength."
Yu Fengcheng smiled, hooked his neck, and said in a low voice: "Do you know how many firsts my brother won these two days?"
"Brother, you are big."
"do you know?"
"do not know."
"Then let me tell you." Yu Fengcheng stretched out two fingers, made an eight, and swayed brightly in front of Bai Xinyu's eyes, making his eyes hurt.
Bai Xinyu pretended to be relaxed and said: "What's the big deal, you only have these eight."
Taking advantage of no one watching, Yu Fengcheng quickly kissed Bai Xinyu on the cheek, "Let me see how much you have improved."
The preparations over there are over, and the contestants are starting to take their positions.
Each of them has to go through competitions such as prone position, standing position, creeping shooting, moving target, etc. The whole group selected and sent 22 people in total. These 22 people are all masters of each company. Bai Xinyu believes that none of them came from the cooking class. Yes, it was only at this time that he realized that among the 2,000 soldiers in the regiment, there were many who wanted to participate in the shooting competition, and he didn't have any outstanding records in the past to refer to. Thoughtful.
Bai Xinyu concentrated his mind and put all his thoughts on the bull's-eye in the distance. At that moment, he felt that what he was holding in his hand was not only a gun, but also the dignity he gambled on and the awesomeness he blew out. If you can't overwhelm Yu Fengcheng here, not only Yu Fengcheng will look down on him, but he will also look down on himself.
At that moment, his heart became surprisingly calm, and all the noise around him turned into a illusory background sound. He no longer thought about his experience in the army for the past few months, and he no longer thought about the group of people who always opened up. A pig begging for food, not to mention Yu Fengcheng's mocking smile, all of these are blocked by his thoughts and eardrums, his world seems to be only left with the gun in his hand, and what he sees through the front sight. The red bull's-eye, he felt that his whole body was full of power, it was the power of self-confidence, the power of concentration, he believed that he would be able to concentrate on the red center!
There was a bang, and Bai Xinyu fired his first shot. After the first shot, he was getting better and better, and he finished the first round of competition like a cloud and flowing water.
The results came out soon, 99.6 rings!
Bai Xinyu yelled excitedly, he jumped up and down towards Squad Leader Wu outside the field, as happy as a monkey.
Squad Leader Wu frowned and made a gesture to calm him down.
Bai Xinyu compared seven or eight people back and forth, but no one surpassed him. This made Bai Xinyu more confident.
Soon, it was time for Yu Fengcheng to play. Yu Fengcheng acted extremely calm, without looking at Bai Xinyu's provocative eyes, he skillfully loaded his gun, lay down, and started shooting.
After a round of shooting, a ring report came from the target paper: 99.4 rings.
Bai Xinyu slapped his thigh, he was so excited that he almost flew up, he was taller than Yu Fengcheng, hahahahahaha he was taller than Yu Fengcheng!
Yu Fengcheng glanced at him with a faint smile, and said, "It's not over yet."
Due to the large number of people in the competition, the progress of the events was very slow. Bai Xinyu took the first place in the prone position and long-range sniping, while Yu Fengcheng took the first place in the standing position and prostrate shooting. The difference between the two scores was only 0. In the 2nd ring, Yu Fengcheng took the lead temporarily, and the final moving target shooting became the key to the competition.
At this time, everyone in the shooting range began to pay attention to Bai Xinyu, Yu Fengcheng and the others were already familiar with him, but who is this soldier who came out of nowhere to compete with Yu Fengcheng? When I asked anyone, they said they had never seen him before, but they all said they looked familiar. At last, they checked him and found that he was actually from the cooking class, which surprised everyone.
As long as the last item does not miss the target, the first and second places in the competition will definitely be between Yu Fengcheng and Bai Xinyu. At this time, Yu Fengcheng also felt a little nervous, and Bai Xinyu was even more emotionally unstable. He has stood out in any competition. It should be said that he has never participated in any competition. He has no part in sports meeting or study competition. He has never tried to fight against others for a certain goal. Many times he is lazy. He worked hard, and he gave up because he was afraid that even if he tried hard, he would not succeed, but now it is different. He finally found a strength that he can be proud of. He likes this feeling of competition. At this moment, the audience is watching At the moment of the final between him and Yu Fengcheng, he felt his blood boil, and the competitive instinct of a man in his body was completely activated. He wanted to win, he wanted to stand on the stage of victory, and he wanted to be the hero that other male creatures looked up to.
Holding the gun, Yu Fengcheng was the first to go on stage. When passing by Bai Xinyu, he smiled and said, "You surprised me."
Bai Xinyu's eyes glowed, and Yu Fengcheng's words made him feel full of swelling. Yes, that's right, he just wants to surprise Yu Fengcheng, everyone who looks down on him, he also wants to surprise his parents and his brother, because the current Bai Xinyu is Bai Xinyu who dares to fight like a man!
The moving target is the most difficult of all shooting items, but it is also the most recent to be used in actual combat. The enemy will not stand still and use it as a target for you to hit.
Yu Fengcheng half-kneeled on the ground to aim, his standard shooting posture, razor-sharp handsome side face and calm, focused eyes were recorded in the cameras by countless propaganda soldiers. Many years later, the soldiers in this camp will be able to In some publicity pictures, I saw Yu Fengcheng's amazing demeanor back then.
After finishing the ten moving targets, Yu Fengcheng's score was 97.1, which was a good score as expected.
As soon as Bai Xinyu heard this number, he immediately felt a little stressed. When he was shooting a moving target, his best score was 97, but that was the only time he had passed 95. Even with hundreds of thousands of bullets like Wuqing The super sharpshooter who has been fed can't guarantee that every shot will hit the heart. Yu Fengcheng scored this result when he was 0.2 rings ahead of him. He must shoot at least 97.4 rings to win...
After several soldiers fought in turn, they soon arrived at Bai Xinyu.
Wu Qing came over at this moment and patted his back, "Are you nervous?"
Bai Xinyu said, "A little bit."
"Moving targets are not easy to hit, but you just need to remember the rules I told you, and calculate the moving time of the target, which is similar to that of a fixed target. After all, this thing is a machine with a uniform speed, not a person running around. Don't be nervous. .”
"Squad leader, weren't you nervous the first time you fought a real person?"
Wu Qing thought for a while, "Of course I was nervous, but when I thought that he was a bad guy who threatened our country and people, I thought he should die no matter what he looked at, so I shot, and the shot hit the right chest, and the blood spurted out. It was all over the place, and my feeling at the time was, it's so fucking cool." He patted Bai Xinyu's back hard, "Just treat those moving targets as heinous villains, go ahead."
Bai Xinyu stretched out his hand, gave Wu Qing a high five, and said with a smile, "Squad leader, wait until I win you a hot water bottle!"
Wu Qing smiled, "I'm waiting for your hot water bottle."
Bai Xinyu took a deep breath and walked over steadily. When he passed Yu Fengcheng, he smiled and said, "I'll surprise you again."
Yu Fengcheng was slightly taken aback, a confident smile appeared on Bai Xinyu's face, his eyes were piercing, he had seen Bai Xinyu's various expressions, cowardly, timid, cowardly, coquettish, But Dudu has never been so confident and high-spirited. This smile made Bai Xinyu's whole body glow. Yu Fengcheng felt his heart skip a beat. Looking at Bai Xinyu now, he almost thought I can't remember what this person looked like when he first joined the army. In less than a year, is it possible for one person to become so many
While Yu Fengcheng was in a daze, Bai Xinyu was already in position, calmly picked up the gun, aimed at the moving target that was slowly sliding, and pulled the trigger...
The ten rounds were quickly finished, Bai Xinyu stood up, his heart was pounding, he was waiting for the final result, could he beat Yu Fengcheng? can he Can this idiot dude who has disappointed people for more than 20 years do something that makes him proud!
"97.5 rings!"
Bai Xinyu's eyes widened, and then he reacted and roared frantically.
Won! He won! He beat Yu Fengcheng! He won the whole regiment of soldiers!
He roared and screamed excitedly, and when he realized it, he had already jumped on Yu Fengcheng's body, hugged Yu Fengcheng's head and shouted excitedly: "I won! I won!"
Yu Fengcheng was so loud that his eardrums hurt. He held Bai Xinyu's buttocks and looked at him with a smile, "Congratulations, you won."
When Bai Xinyu came back to his senses, he realized that the entire shooting range was looking at him, probably thinking, this kid just won a hot water bottle, why is he so excited like he won the Olympic champion.
Bai Xinyu blushed, and jumped off Yu Fengcheng, Yu Fengcheng whispered in his ear: "When the two of us are alone, it would be great if you could take the initiative like this."
Bai Xinyu secretly bumped him with an elbow, then hurried to Wu Qing and Chen Jing, jumping like a rabbit, "Squad leader, squad leader, I won."
Both Wu Qing and Chen Jing looked at him with smiles, very satisfied.
Feng Dongyuan and Qian Liang squeezed through the crowd, grabbed him excitedly and shouted, "Xin Yu, you are so awesome, so awesome! Why didn't you see it at the beginning?"
Bai Xinyu laughed triumphantly, "Why are you talking, my young master is hiding something, hahahahaha—"
The three of them jumped up and down happily, and they were all genuinely happy for Bai Xinyu's achievements.
The fourth company commander came over at this time, and patted Bai Xinyu's shoulder with a smile, "Little comrade, it's amazing. The team leader has been paying attention to this competition. Hearing that you are a soldier in the cooking squad, the team leader was so surprised." I didn't close my mouth for a long time, hahahaha."
Bai Xinyu smiled and said, "Thank you, Chief."
The Fourth Company Commander smiled and said, "How is it? Have you considered what I said last time?"
Wu Qing pretended to be angry and said: "What's the matter with you, you came here to dig people, does Old Xu know?"
"Hmph, Xu Laosan put such a potential soldier in the cooking squad, what do you think?"
Bai Xinyu remembered what Yu Fengcheng and Wu Qing had said that day, and looked at Chen Jing, Feng Dongyuan and Qian Liang beside him. He felt that what Yu Fengcheng and Squad Leader Wu said made sense, and that the Fourth Company Commander might want to let him pass. That's why it's somewhat exaggerated. No matter how good he is at shooting, his personality is not that of a sniper. Moreover, he is also reluctant to part with these people in the third company. He said: "Thank you for your appreciation, but I... I still like it." Sanlian, like my brothers, I want to stay in Sanlian."
The Fourth Company Commander laughed helplessly, "It really disappoints me. Actually, I have already gone to fight with Mr. Xu, but guess what? He won't let you go, he won't let you go, even if you ask why Don't say it, just say you don't like it to me, you say you are not angry, but now I have reacted." He glanced at Wu Qing, "Don't look at Xu Laosan as a reckless man on the surface, he is really brave and resourceful. He threw you into the cooking class. I'm afraid it was planned a long time ago. If you are still as muddy as you are in the recruit company, then it will not wrong you to let you go to the cooking class to feed the pigs, but if you still With such a little ambition, Squad Leader Wu is the one who can inspire your potential. So I can understand why he doesn't let you go, and your company commander is also well-intentioned."
Bai Xinyu was stunned, looking at the man on the rostrum far away who always yelled at him and never gave him any good looks. Is it really? Does the commander have any deep meaning to all of this
