When Mr. Zheng heard that Zhang Jialiang agreed to compete with him, his eyes lit up. He had been competitive all his life and had never accepted defeat.

When he was in the village, he served as a guerrilla fighter and participated in a battle with the Japanese regular army, in which he won. It was the pride of his life.

Even though he is old now, he still has a strong competitive spirit. This kid Zhang Jialiang actually dares to compete with him. He was a famous sharpshooter in their village back then.

"Okay, you have guts!

I won't take advantage of you. If I lose, I will give you something!"

"Okay, then let's make an agreement!"

The reason why Zhang Jialiang wanted to get close to Mr. Zheng and build a relationship with him was that he wanted to learn shooting techniques from him.

Although he doesn't have a gun now, he will definitely have one in the future. Learning in advance will save him from being in a hurry when the time comes. As for betting in the competition, it's just a joke.

"Okay, everyone is here, let's go!

If we get there earlier, we can observe the terrain more and make more preparations."

When Secretary Zhou saw that everyone had arrived, he spoke up and asked everyone to follow him.

I got up early today, and by the time I arrived at Shichahai, it was only around 7 o'clock.

At this time, a large number of people have gathered here, all of whom are capable forces drawn from various streets.

Under the command of several street officials, each area was assigned and they began to make preparations, and they took unified action at 8 o'clock.

Zhang Jialiang and his team of five also began to familiarize themselves with the area they were responsible for under the leadership of Secretary Zhou.

At the same time, a large number of other personnel were making preparations and spreading out in the Shichahai area. There had to be someone in charge of each area, especially those on top of the buildings.

Many people climbed up to the roofs of many of the surrounding temples and nunneries, and some began to look for sparrow nests and destroyed them once they found them.

“In order to prevent the sparrows from resting, people will usually drive them away as soon as they are spotted, so when you hunt sparrows, you don’t have much time.

Regardless of whether we can shoot them down or not, at least we have to scare the sparrows away. The key to this city-wide sparrow-shooting campaign is to not let them rest and tire them out to death!"

Secretary Zhou gave detailed introductions and arrangements as we walked.

Soon it was 8 o'clock, and the citizens present began to make loud noises using various tools.

There were various birds, most of which were sparrows, which were frightened by the noisy environment and flapped their wings to fly in other directions.

But what made them even more panicked was that no matter where they arrived, there was always someone who welcomed them warmly.

When they see the sparrows, the person in charge of the area will wave bamboo poles and make loud noises, or use something to make a loud noise to scare the sparrows away again.

The sparrows flew from here to there, from the south of the city to the north, from the east to the west. They suddenly found that in such a big capital city, there was no place for them to stay.

Whether on top of a building or on the street, whether on top of their favorite trees or in usually empty and desolate places, there will always be someone waiting for them excitedly.

If you look down from a high altitude at this time, you will find that the entire capital city has become a sea of ​​enthusiasm, with crowds of people, waving flags, loud noises, and it is extremely lively.

Zhang Jialiang and his team's main target is the tall trees in various places. These trees are too tall and difficult for people to climb, so they are natural resting places for sparrows.

Even if someone knocks on the tree or makes noises with other tools, it is possible that the exhausted sparrows will not be disturbed and will not land on the treetops to rest and recover.

This is when Zhang Jialiang and his team come into play. They use slingshots or guns to attack them. Even if they cannot shoot them down, the sparrows will be scared and continue to flee to other places.

Zhang Jialiang and his group have already spread out and are each focusing on a small patch of trees, to make sure that no sparrows are resting on these large trees. If they can shoot down a sparrow at the same time, that would be an even better outcome.

The area that Zhang Jialiang is in charge of is a small area that is about 200 meters from north to south and about 100 meters from east to west. There are about twenty tall trees inside.

Zhang Jialiang patrolled back and forth. Of course, he was not the only one in this area. There were about 20 other people evenly distributed in the venue. If they found any traces of sparrows, they would drive them away. If the sparrows stayed on the tree and did not move, they would notify Zhang Jialiang.

"Liangzi, there are a few sparrows on that tree!"

Hearing someone shouting from the left front, Zhang Jialiang ran over quickly.

"Where?"

"This tree, on the south-west branch."

Zhang Jialiang looked in the direction indicated by his buddy and soon found seven or eight sparrows on a large tree branch.

He quickly raised his left hand, tightened the bowstring with his right hand, took a simple aim and released his right hand. The stone wrapped in the slingshot, under the strong force of the bowstring, rushed past as fast as a sparrow on a branch.

Maybe it was good luck, or maybe Zhang Jialiang's slingshot skills had improved during this period. The sparrow fell down, hit hard by the stone, and then naturally fell to the ground.

At the same time, other sparrows were frightened, chirped a few times, flapped their wings and flew away helplessly to other places.

After seeing the sparrow fly away, Zhang Jialiang didn't care and walked straight towards the sparrow that fell to the ground.

The sparrow was hit in the abdomen and seriously injured by the stone. Although it is not dead yet, it probably won't live for long.

This was his trophy, which he would have to hand over to the street office for counting. He threw the sparrows into a small bamboo basket he was carrying.

"Brother, I'm going to continue my patrol. Notify me if there's anything else!"

After saying hello to that friend, Zhang Jialiang continued patrolling forward.

The process is roughly like this. If he sees a sparrow landed somewhere on the road, he will directly aim and shoot. If he hits it, he will get the trophy. If he misses, he has completed the task of driving away the sparrow.

If there are other places where sparrows are difficult to drive away, someone will notify Zhang Jialiang, and he will go over and shoot them with a slingshot. As long as the sparrows are within the attack range of the slingshot, even if he cannot shoot them down, he will definitely complete the task of driving them away.

In fact, this job is not too tiring. Although there are many sparrows, they will not always come to him, so when he is tired of patrolling, he will sit down, smoke a cigarette and rest for a while. He also finds the right opportunity to go to the hunting space and complete today's hunting task. Killing sparrows is not important to him and it cannot delay him from hunting.
