Although a handgun is a weapon that needs to be aimed before firing,
when the distance is extremely close and the target is very large,
even without aiming, a high hit rate can be achieved.
-
For example, gunfighting techniques.
-
Sacrificing the advantage of range in firearms.
-
But maximizing the killing feature of firearms.
-
Usually, to unleash power, you need space and distance to accelerate.
-
For example, swinging your arm, twisting your body, or retracting your fist to your side and then striking out fiercely.
-
Later, Bruce Lee proposed Jeet Kune Do, short power distance, great power, resulting in very fast reaction speed and close combat strength.
-
Gunfighting techniques and this kind of thinking are in the same vein.
-
Chongzong, lying on the ground, was thinking about distance.
-
He gripped the gun in his hand, listening intently to the enemy's voices, footsteps, gunshots, judging the direction and distance of the enemy.
-
After so much suppressive fire from the enemy, and not getting hit himself, Chongzong had a reason to believe that the enemy hadn't accurately pinpointed his location, and the suppressing fire was only to safely navigate in this dense forest terrain.
-
Suppressive fire is meant to identify the opponent in an advantageous situation and then further kill them.
-
If it were Chongzong, he would take the same action.
-
Holding an assault rifle, advancing, upon sighting the enemy, open fire fully and turn the opponent into a sieve.
-
In terms of combat posture, a standing person undoubtedly has the advantage over a prone person.
-
However, the premise is to spot the opponent earlier than the enemy.
-
What is being competed now is who spots the other first.
-
Whether it's a bullet from a handgun or an assault rifle, hitting a vital spot on the body results in the same outcome: death.
-
Contemplating all this, Chongzong's state of mind gradually calmed.
-
The wind rustled the grass, and the tree branches swayed.
-
Stepping on the grass, he would occasionally hear the sound of branches breaking.
-
The enemy was not invisible.
-
Everything was traceable.
-
He was not a fish on the chopping board.
-
Rather, he was an animal on the grassland.
-
He still had a chance to fight the hunter.
-
The lion hunting the antelope could also be fatally gored by the antelope's horns.
-
Overcoming his fear, Chongzong's heartbeat gradually slowed.
-
He waited patiently for the opportunity to arrive.
-
Twenty meters.
-
Ten meters.
-
Five meters, three o'clock direction.
-
Close enough.
-
Moreover, Chongzong was very lucky as the enemy had misjudged his position and was not directly approaching in a straight line.
-
This was a quite advantageous position, and if successful, could catch the enemy off guard.
-
But Chongzong did not look up, still waiting quietly.
-
He was waiting for the enemy's next round of suppressive fire.
-
Even though he had a rough estimate of the enemy's position and direction, this shot, in simple terms, was a gamble.
-
Hitting the target was a miracle, missing was the norm.
-
Therefore, Chongzong needed to minimize the risk of taking this shot as much as possible.
-
As the ancients said, "hide the tree in the forest."
-
As the ancients said, "hide the great while in the open."
-
In the current situation, concealing his gunshots amidst the enemy's suppressive fire was a method that allowed him to shoot while also protecting his hiding spot.
-
The most fortunate outcome would be if the enemy didn't even hear the gunshot.
-
Suddenly, a bullet pierced a tree trunk, and the enemy's assault rifle started firing again.
-
Chongzong remained in a prone position, only slightly raising his arm, adjusting the angle through his wrist, and by feeling, took a shot.
-
The enemy's suppressive fire immediately stopped.
-
Had he hit the enemy? Or had he been detected?
-
Without dwelling on it, Chongzong quickly stood up, confirming that the enemy was standing about five or six meters to his right front.
-
Although the blind shot missed, the enemy had noticed the gunshot and stopped the suppressive fire.
-
These details were no longer important.
-
The two met face to face, and the next step was a fight to the death.
-
Chongzong quickly aimed at the enemy, who was half a second slower in reacting to him.
-
The outcome was determined by this half-second difference in reaction time.
-
With a bang, the bullet hit the tree beside the enemy.
-
Chongzong failed to seize the opportunity.
-
Fatigue, coupled with the uneven terrain, caused him to lose his footing while firing the gun, resulting in a missed shot.
-
The advantage of that half-second of life and death was lost just like that.
-
In the next moment, the enemy had already raised the assault rifle and was aiming at Chongzong.
-
Simultaneously, Chongzong regained his balance.
-
Both started running and shooting at each other, using tree trunks as cover, engaging in a dance of combat.
-
But Chongzong had no intention of letting the situation escalate to a chase. Given the firepower disparity, in just a dozen seconds, he would end up being shot to death.
-
In that instant of confrontation, Chongzong immediately understood the situation.
-
The reason why the enemy moved so slowly was due to the heaviness of their equipment.
-
With a bulletproof shield on their back, holding an assault rifle with both hands, and wearing a bulletproof vest, they resembled a clumsy bear in this narrow, wooded area, hampered at every turn.
-
And Chongzong's chances lay in close combat.
-
Once the distance was opened up, the enemy's cumbersome disadvantages would disappear.
-
Only in close combat would such clumsiness and inflexibility be magnified.
-
Dodging between tree trunks, Chongzong slipped from side to side. By tiptoeing and moving left and right, he made the most of each tree as cover. Disappearing from the enemy's view at times, he unpredictably changed directions when reappearing, alternating between slow and fast paces, making it impossible for the opponent to predict his movements and shoot accurately.
-
In reality, the enemy could only aim with the assault rifle in hand continuously, but was unable to pull the trigger.
-
Yet, the distance between Chongzong and the enemy continued to close.
-
Four meters.
-
Three meters.
-
Both sides made a decision in that instant.
-
As Chongzong aimed to jump to the enemy's side, he suddenly bent down and lunged at the enemy.
-
The enemy immediately holstered the handgun and drew out a shield, holding it up.
-
Weakened by exhaustion, Chongzong was a beat slow and failed to seize the initiative. Instead, the enemy struck his shoulder with the shield, causing him to fall to the ground.
-
The enemy then raised the handgun and fired three shots at Chongzong on the ground. Rolling behind a tree, Chongzong evaded the fatal pursuit.
-
Quickly, Chongzong grabbed the tree trunk and, using the previous rolling momentum, hurled himself at the enemy again.
-
The enemy repeated the shield block, but mid-swing, Chongzong dropped to the ground and executed a sweeping leg kick, causing the enemy to stumble. He then raised his gun to fire, only to have the enemy exploit his instability and smash the shield towards Chongzong.
-
Chongzong instantly assessed the situation. Firing at such close range carried a high risk of self-injury. Therefore, he released the trigger, rolled to the side to dodge the shield strike.
-
After rolling away, Chongzong aimed to fire again, but the enemy was quicker, closing in with the shield already in hand.
-
"Come on!" (Frontline Assault)
-
The enemy shouted as the shield was repeatedly brought down like a hammer.
-
In the hands of the enemy, the bulletproof shield had turned into a devastating weapon.
-
Although blunt force wouldn't cut through flesh like a sharp blade, it transmitted energy directly inside the body, causing deep-seated injuries, leading to dizziness and internal trauma.
-
"Today was damn satisfying!" (Frontline Assault)
-
Flurrying the shield, the enemy had Chongzong evading ceaselessly, with no opportunity to fire.
-
Attempting to shoot forcefully might not hit the mark and could end up with the gun being knocked away with the shield even before firing.
-
After several dodges, Chongzong began to tire gradually - his breath quickened, his heart pounded as if it was going to burst out of his chest, the beating so loud it felt like it would explode at any moment.
-
Chongzong wanted to evade the shield and engage in close combat with the enemy, but with the shield's large size and various trees hindering on both sides, he had no opportunity to execute such a move.
-
Continuing like this, his stamina would give out first.
-
—No, what should I do…?
-
At this moment, Chongzong noticed that the enemy had subconsciously switched to melee combat mode.
-
The enemy had already holstered the handgun.
-
Now, the enemy alternated between wielding the shield left and right, or holding both shields simultaneously, relishing this integrated violence of offense and defense.
-
Without the threat of firearms, this was a golden opportunity for Chongzong.
-
If he missed seizing this opportunity, he could only blame himself for the loss.
-
Chongzong used the corner of his eye to check the terrain, deliberately creating an opening to lure the enemy into pursuit.
Instantly, Chongzong rushed towards a tree, stepped on it forcefully, and pushed off with all his might, propelling himself into the air. He somersaulted mid-air and leaped above the enemy's head.
The enemy reacted quickly, raising his shield to strike at Chongzong from below. Sensing the attack, Chongzong used the downward momentum and his own weight to stomp fiercely on the shield, then used this force to leap once more.
Not stopping there, taking advantage of the enemy's instability from the impact, Chongzong held his spear with both hands, adjusted his posture in mid-air, and fired two shots directly at the shield below.
The tremendous impact shook the enemy's hands numb, causing him to lose grip of the shield, which fell to the ground.
Dropping down from the sky, Chongzong aimed a precise downward heel kick at the enemy's head, and with that move, he also tumbled awkwardly to the ground.
Ignoring his own injuries, Chongzong immediately got up to assess his opponent's condition, only to find the enemy lying on the ground.
—Did that strike have such great power?
Approaching the enemy cautiously, Chongzong discovered a bullet hole on the outer side of the enemy's waist.
The blood flowing out had already soaked through the enemy's outer garment.
Though the wound was not fatal, in such intense combat after being shot, the situation of losing blood was unimaginable.
Whether it was shock or loss of consciousness, the fact remained that the opponent could no longer fight.
—This person is a formidable opponent.
Chongzong sighed.
In a life-and-death battle, only the victor can reflect on it.
This victory belonged to Chongzong.
