according to taiwan's china times news, at about 10 am on september 9, a training accident occurred in the reserve brigade of the new taipei city tucheng reserve command. an officer surnamed zheng was conducting pistol shooting training and took over the troubleshooting of the firearm. he was suspected of accidentally touching the trigger during the operation, causing the bullet to be fired, unfortunately injuring his left foot. the on-site paramedics immediately sent him to the hospital for treatment, and he is currently not in danger of life.

this incident has sparked heated discussions among taiwanese netizens. many netizens expressed shock and confusion at the operational error of the battalion commander surnamed zheng, and left messages questioning his professionalism and training level. some netizens even bluntly said that "he is a layman" and "lacks basic skills and common sense."

it is worth noting that this incident is not the only embarrassing incident of the taiwan military in recent times. in the previous "han guang 40" exercise, the taiwan military also aroused public doubts due to equipment failures and low hit rates. these incidents undoubtedly brought a considerable negative impact on the image and morale of the taiwan military.
