The Mysterious Soldier of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 265 Special Training Before the War

"That's great! I'm relieved to leave this to a professional team. If nothing else, I'll go back to my own business." Lei Tao nodded slightly, a flicker of relief in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by his usual vigilance. He knew full well that in this turbulent land, danger could strike again at any moment.

Military Officer Tang patted Lei Tao on the shoulder, his eyes full of trust and gratitude. "Mr. Lei, this time, thanks to you, the follow-up will be handed over to the country's top armed escort team to handle secretly. I also happened to be transferred back to China. When you return, let me know and we can have a drink together."

Lei Tao smiled and replied, "Of course, Officer Tang, we must have a good reunion when we return home. This place is not peaceful, so please take care of yourself on your journey."

After bidding farewell to Military Officer Tang, Lei Tao rushed back to the safe house and quickly activated the Bagua Gyro System. After a flash of light, he appeared near the camp. Upon returning to the camp, he saw Zhou Weiguo leading the team in training with a vigorous posture. The soldiers' slogans were in unison and loud, demonstrating their high morale.

"Lei Zi, we finally got you back!" Zhou Weiguo saw Lei Tao at a glance, waved to the team to take a break, and strode towards him.

Lei Tao smiled and nodded, his expression showing a bit of determination: "It's going well. Next, we need to conduct special training on rapid-fire pistols for the team members. Our team members need to improve their accuracy and speed of rapid-fire pistols in close combat. It can save lives in critical moments."

Zhou Weiguo's expression grew serious upon hearing this. Recalling the brutal close combat with the Japanese in the past, he frowned slightly. "Yeah, the Japanese are indeed fierce in close combat. Special training in rapid-fire pistols is absolutely necessary. In close-range firefights, this skill is often the key to victory or defeat."

Without delay, the two men gathered all the team members and announced the special training plan. Upon hearing this, the team members' eyes lit up with excitement and anticipation, and they were all eager to try. In the crowd, progressive young people gathered together, their eyes sparkling with curiosity and desire. Fan Xiaoyu, with her short hair and bright eyes, was the first to step forward and asked crisply, "Captain Lei, can we join in too?"

Then, the tall and straightforward Lin Yue followed up with a question: "Captain Lei, can you give us pistols?"

Lei Tao looked at them with a gentle smile on his face, his eyes full of encouragement: "Of course you can! On the battlefield, there is no distinction between men and women. As long as you have the determination and courage, you can become a soldier defending your country. Pistols will naturally be distributed to everyone, but remember, after receiving the gun, you must strictly abide by the training discipline and study the shooting skills seriously. This gun is not just a weapon, but a powerful guarantee for defending your country."

Upon hearing Lei Tao's reply, the progressive young people cheered excitedly, their faces filled with excitement and pride. Fan Xiaoyu and Lin Yue exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with anticipation for the upcoming special training.

His right hand swiftly pulled the pistol from his waist. With a crisp metallic clang, his fingers moved nimbly, loading the gun and releasing the safety in the blink of an eye. He held the gun handle firmly with both hands, elbows slightly bent, while the muzzle of the gun was precisely aimed at the target.

Instantly, a flash of fire erupted, and the crisp crack of a pistol rang out. With the deft movement of Lei Tao's wrist, the muzzle of the gun adjusted, and bullets whizzed out at an astonishing rate. The bullets rained down like dense raindrops, hitting the bull's-eyes of several targets with unerring precision. In just over a second, the pistol magazine was empty, and he slowly lowered his arm. The surrounding team members were first stunned, their mouths wide open, their faces filled with disbelief, before bursting into warm applause and a wave of exclamations.

"See? This is what we want to achieve!" Lei Tao shouted, "Rapid shooting with a pistol is all about speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness!" As he spoke, he quickly changed the magazine and demonstrated the smooth shooting action again.

Fan Xiaoyu and Lin Yue, the other young women, stared at Lei Tao's every move with wide eyes, afraid of missing any details. They whispered to each other, encouraging each other and secretly determined to perform well in the special training.

Then, an assistant brought out the moving target. Lei Tao narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze like a hawk, closely anticipating the target's trajectory. As the target rapidly moved, he decisively fired, the gun firing and the target falling, demonstrating his exceptional dynamic shooting ability. He would sometimes swerve, using his body's inertia to drive his arm to complete the shooting motion; sometimes he would roll on the ground, rising to his feet and firing the moment he did so. The entire sequence was seamless and natural, thrilling the team members.

After Lei Tao finished shooting with the pistol, he said loudly: "After practicing with the pistol, we also need to practice switching between the assault rifle and the pistol. On the battlefield, the flexible switching of weapons can allow us to take the initiative!"

Immediately afterwards, Lei Tao bent down, grabbed an AK47, expertly cocked the bolt, and engaged the safety. Meanwhile, his assistant brought out a fast-moving target. Lei Tao's gaze was fixed on the target, and as the target moved, his steps moved nimbly and swiftly. Then, he pulled the trigger, and the AK47 unleashed streams of flame. The bullets whizzed out with a "da da da" sound, darting precisely towards the moving target. For a moment, the sound of gunfire was deafening, and sawdust flew from the target.

However, a moment later, the gun's chamber clicked, its ammunition exhausted. While everyone was still absorbed in the shocking shooting scene, Lei Tao reacted with remarkable speed. He swung the AK47 behind him, quickly drew the pistol with his right hand, and held his wrist firmly with his left hand, continuing to fire in the standard two-handed grip. The pistol's crackle was crisp and rapid, and each bullet shot towards the bull's eye like a meteor, the entire process seamlessly and without a single pause.

After the demonstration, Lei Tao put away his gun and stood, his eyes firmly scanning the team members: "See? This is our goal. On the battlefield, the situation changes rapidly. Switching weapons, shooting accuracy and speed are all related to life and death. We must master various shooting techniques to accurately eliminate the enemy in any situation. From now on, train hard and make yourself a strong warrior on the battlefield!"

The team members responded in unison, their voices deafening and echoing throughout the camp. After seven days of special training, Lei Tao called the Li brothers, Liu Zishan, Chen Feiyang, and Yi Guang, a soldier from the Eighth Route Army task force, aside to teach them sniping techniques.
