Chapter 40: Sniping (I)
It is estimated that these people who are walking up the hill at this moment were shocked by Evans's sniping, and they didn't dare to continue going up for a while after losing such a person. Morris and Jeff, who were on the hillside, finally heard Donovan's shout, and turned their guns to aim in the direction of the road, and after a moment Morris suddenly shouted, "I see him!" Before he could finish speaking, he quickly took aim and pulled the trigger.
The sniper on the other side was obviously aiming at them, but the target was not Morris or Jeff, but Pete and them in the low ground. Just as he was about to pull the trigger, several bullets hit him around him, which made him give up quickly, removed his fingers that had already touched the trigger, and quickly retreated to a tree in the right rear.
"Damn it!" Morris knew that he didn't hit, and he scolded while carefully staring at the place where the other party had disappeared, and he knew that he had to keep an eye on it no matter what it was, otherwise any of them might be killed by this sniper of the other side in the next moment.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" Jeff yelled to the people down the hillside, "The pirates are staring at him, get out!" Come on! ”
Pete reached out and quickly took the SVD that Evans had thrown away in his hand and carried it on his back, then got up and grabbed one of his arms and walked back, regardless of what Steve was doing at the moment.
Pete's tugging obviously made Steve extremely painful, but he couldn't stop, so he could only drag and say, "Steve, we have to get out of here, hold on!" ”
Avery and Evans quickly came down the hill, and Donovan saw them approaching and immediately pointed to the back of the hill, "Go around, go around to the back of the hill." After saying that, he quickly leaned towards Ochoa while shooting, and after coming to his side, he took a quick look at Evans and said, "How is he?" What do you think? ”
"Not dead yet. I know so much now. Ochoa said as she continued to drag her back vigorously.
"I'll cover you. Avery was followed by the two Ossetians who were carrying Matt. Follow them and go around the hill as fast as you can. Donovan continued to shoot at the other side who were trying to move down the hill.
Pete dragged Steve a little hard, but he couldn't stop at the moment. But the Ossetians attacked again, and this time they changed their tactics again, and instead went around the rear of the Georgians led by Second Lieutenant Loria, in the area where Pete and his area were.
Donovan quickly noticed this, and he immediately changed the target of his shot, and after firing several shots at the Ossetians, he quickly walked to Pete's side, "Quick, I'll help you and carry him up." Fast! ”
Pete immediately nodded, stopped, and helped Steve up with Donovan as he spoke, "Why don't those Georgians use their rockets?" Is it just reserved for fighting armored vehicles? ”
Donovan listened to Pete's words and didn't say a word, where did he care so much at the moment, and organizing his team to leave here as soon as possible is the most important thing. So instead of answering, he said, "You go first," after putting Steve on Pete's shoulder. I'll cover you. Hurry up, hurry up! ”
Pete took a deep breath and ran out with Steve on his shoulder. This mountain road is not easy to walk, and the speed of one foot deep and one foot shallow is not fast at all, but it is better than dragging on the ground anyway.
Donovan's shooting distracted the Ossetians to a certain extent, but the most crucial thing was to alert the Georgians who were in front of them to focus on the exchange of fire with the dozen or so men on the other side. Donovan, having reduced the speed of the opponent's movement, immediately shouted in the direction of the Georgians: "Loria! Loria! Let your people fight and retreat, fight and retreat! Pay attention to your two o'clock direction, they are outflanking you. ”
This time Lieutenant Loria responded immediately, and after he quickly distributed his men, some of the Georgians began to move in the direction of the hillside, but as soon as they moved here, the Ossetians immediately intensified their attack on them, and those who were moving Georgians were forced to stop again to counterattack, but after a while, not only did they not suppress the other side, but they themselves began to retreat in a panic.
"Damn it." Donovan cursed with a very agitated expression, and he once again hid behind a tree, but he had to pause shooting and change the magazine because he had run out of bullets in the magazine again. And just then, a rocket flew out again from the ranks of the Ossetians.
At first, the rocket looked like it was coming for Pete and Donovan, but it wasn't, and the target was Morris and Jeff on the hillside, only to see the rocket explode on the hillside after flying over Pete and Donovan's heads.
Pete was shaken by the shock and shock wave of the explosion, and after stumbling twice, he fell to the ground with Steve. He fell to the ground and quickly glanced up the hillside, from his vantage point he couldn't see what was going on, but a moment later the gunfire rang out again. Pete breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly thought of a question, that is, the sniper who was still alive on the other side might be ready to move at this moment. Thinking of this, Pete didn't care about Steve's state at the moment, he immediately climbed to a tree on the side of the hill, and immediately pulled the SVD on his back to his chest after leaning against the tree, looked at Hemaradze's body and carefully observed the movement around the corpse.
"Steve! Steve, crawl behind me! Hurry up! Pete stared at Steve on the ground, and before he could finish his sentence, he vaguely saw that Hemarazze's body seemed to move slightly.
Hemaradze must have died, as several people saw. Then a sudden movement at this moment can only mean that something has touched him. And this thing was apparently caused by the sniper hiding nearby coming out again, and perhaps he was ready to use Hemarazer's corpse as cover to prepare to aim and shoot again.
Pete immediately raised the gun and began to aim through the scope on the gun. In the scope, Hemaradze's body seemed to be in the same shape as when he died, and the camouflage on his body had turned dark red or even blackened because it was soaked in blood. If you just look at the corpse, you can't see anything wrong.
So Pete slowly moved the muzzle of the gun while estimating the target that the other party would probably choose if he wanted to shoot. In his opinion, snipers will first choose targets with greater value or targets that pose a great threat to their own side, and at this moment, it should be Morris and Jeff who can pose a greater threat to the other side.
