Chapter 103: One Job and Its Over



The day after, Vincent and Alpha 4 were back at the training grounds, ready to continue the session. The elves were already assembled, standing in formation with a determined expression on their faces. The previous day's training had been intense, but they were eager to learn more.

Vincent began by addressing the group, his voice firm but encouraging. "Good morning, everyone. Yesterday, we covered the basics of handling the M4 Carbine and the Sig Sauer M17. You all did well, but there's still a lot to learn. Today, we'll be focusing on improving your accuracy and learning how to move while engaging the enemy."

Alpha 4 stepped forward, holding an M4 Carbine in his hands. "Before we begin, I want to remind you of something important," he said. "These weapons are powerful, but they require discipline and control. You need to be aware of your surroundings at all times, especially when you're on the move."

Vincent nodded in agreement. "We'll start with a drill to improve your accuracy while moving. This is a crucial skill in battle, where you won't always have the luxury of standing still to take your shot."

Vincent demonstrated the drill, showing the elves how to move in a crouched position while keeping their weapons aimed at the target. He fired a few rounds, hitting the target accurately even while on the move.

"Now it's your turn," Vincent said, stepping back to let the elves take their positions.

"Remember, keep your movements smooth and controlled. Focus on your target, and don't rush your shots."

The elves began the drill, moving in unison as they aimed at the targets ahead. Vincent and Alpha 4 moved among them, offering tips and corrections where needed. Some of the elves struggled at first, but with each attempt, their movements became more fluid, their shots more accurate.

"Good," Vincent called out as he observed their progress. "You're improving. Keep it up." After several rounds of the drill, Vincent signaled for a break. The elves took the opportunity to catch their breath and discuss their performance with one another.

During the break, Vincent and Alpha 4 gathered the group around for a brief review. "You're making progress, but there's still room for improvement," Vincent said. "In a real battle, you won't have time to think about your next move. It needs to become second nature."Rread latest chapters at novelhall.com

Alpha 4 added, "Tomorrow, we'll introduce you to more advanced maneuvers, but for today, we're going to focus on mastering what you've learned so far. The better you get at the basics, the more effective you'll be in combat."

With the break over, Vincent and Alpha 4 led the elves through more drills, gradually increasing the difficulty. They practiced shooting from different positions-standing, kneeling, and prone-while incorporating movement. By the end of the session, the elves were noticeably more confident with their weapons, and their movements more precise.

"Remember, communication is critical," Vincent reminded them. "Use hand signals if necessary, and always keep your focus on the objective."

The elves began the drill, with Alpha Team laying down suppressive fire as Beta Team advanced. There were a few initial missteps-timing was off, and some elves hesitated before moving-but Vincent and Alpha 4 quickly stepped in to correct them.

"Stay low when you're moving," Alpha 4 instructed, adjusting the stance of one elf. "And don't forget to keep your weapon trained on the enemy position. You need to be ready to engage at any moment."

As the elves repeated the drill, their movements became more coordinated. They learned to trust each other, relying on their teammates to provide the necessary cover as they advanced. The communication improved, with clear signals passed between the teams. After several successful runs of bounding overwatch, Vincent decided it was time to move on to the next tactic: fire and maneuver. "This tactic is similar to bounding overwatch but focuses more on small teams or pairs," he explained. "One element provides suppressive fire while the other moves to a better firing position. The goal is to constantly pressure the enemy while reducing their ability to return effective fire."

Vincent demonstrated with Alpha 4, showing how a two-man team could effectively leapfrog between cover positions while keeping the enemy suppressed. The elves watched as Vincent and Alpha 4 moved, alternating between firing and moving in a seamless flow. "Your goal is to outmaneuver the enemy, forcing them to react to your movements rather than the other way around," Vincent said. "This requires trust in your partner and an understanding of the battlefield."

The elves paired up and began practicing the fire-and-maneuver tactic. Vincent and Alpha 4 moved among them, offering tips and corrections. "Keep your movements fluid," Vincent advised one pair. "You don't want to be stationary for too long, or you'll become an easy

target."

"Remember to keep your partner in sight," Alpha 4 added. "You need to know where they are at all times, so you can adjust your movements accordingly."

As the day progressed, the elves grew more comfortable with the advanced tactics. Their movements became more confident, and their ability to work as a team improved significantly. Vincent watched with a sense of satisfaction as the elves began to grasp the complexities of modern warfare.

By the end of the session, the elves were exhausted but visibly more skilled. Vincent gathered them together for a final debrief. "You've done well today," he said, his tone one of approval. "These are not easy tactics to master, but you've shown great progress. Remember, the key to success in battle is coordination and communication. Trust in your teammates, and always be aware of your surroundings."

Alpha 4 nodded in agreement. "You're becoming more than just skilled archers and swordsmen. You're learning to think and fight like modern soldiers. Keep up the hard work, and you'll be ready for whatever comes your way."

As the elves dispersed for the day, Vincent and Alpha 4 exchanged a glance. "Looks like the job

is done sir, we can finally leave this place."

Vincent nodded. "Agreed."
