Chapter 569: Conings
"Squeak!"
The sound of rubber-soled shoes stepping on the ground, some people like it, some people hate it, Yu Zhiqian liked this sound when he was a child, and he didn't feel much when he grew up, but now he doesn't like it.
This is a complex of buildings about 500 meters away from the railway station, Yu Zhiqian is the tallest building around, you can see most of the railway station, but because there is no aiming equipment in this era, 500 meters has exceeded the limit of rifle shooting, although the gun can hit, but the bullet does not know where it can fly, this side is not in the dense firefight area between the two sides.
Yu Zhiqian climbed upstairs to see the fire and looked at the sky, the sun had begun to sink in the west, but there was still a period of time before it set.
After finding a corner, Yu Zhiqian looked around, and after making sure that there was no place in the room to hit him from outside, he took out a cigarette and lit it for himself, the habit of smoking is not a good habit on the battlefield, but Yu Zhiqian is used to it, when fighting for his life on the battlefield, he needs to be calm, he needs to let himself have space to think, smoking can give Yu Zhiqian a short period of very sober calm.
When the cigarette burned out, Yu Zhiqian bent down to change rooms, and observed the situation in the distance through the window using the magnifier on the gun.
The train station in the distance can be clearly seen, only a small train station is full of corpses, and the Soviets and Germans are still fighting over that area repeatedly.
Yu Zhiqian could clearly see that several German tanks were rushing towards the railway station, while the Soviets on the opposite side were frantically cleaning up the soldiers behind the tanks with machine guns and rifle grenades.
In the primitive anti-tank way, the number of lives paid to knock out a tank could be a dozen or maybe dozens, but for the Soviets, these were just numbers.
The Germans, whose attack was blocked, would soon mobilize some artillery to clean up the firing points just now, while the Soviets seemed to be inexhaustible, as soon as the firing points on one side were cleared, the other side of the firing points would be quickly established, and again and again, constantly coping with the German attacks.
There was still a fierce exchange of fire at the railway station here, and behind the station, there was a Soviet train, which was moving forward under artillery fire, stopping at a certain distance from the station, and a large number of new soldiers and supplies were transported from behind, and were quickly sent off the train, and then sent to the front line, and all this was carried out under German fire.
In the sky, the German bombers continued to make a sharp sound of breaking the air, diving down from a high place, sending shells into the positions of the Soviets, and some Soviet soldiers who had just gotten off the train did not understand what was happening, and were directly taken away by a bomb.
The surrounding Soviet soldiers quickly cleaned up the corpses, or simply did not clean them up, issued weapons, and let these soldiers rush to the front line, these soldiers ignorantly took their weapons, and were crowded forward by a group of people, and finally came to the front line of the railway station.
Life becomes irrelevant here, the will above is above all else, and the Soviet Union's desperate advance tactics make it difficult for the Germans to move an inch, relying on human lives to continuously consume the Germans' war potential.
The war has been nearly three months, and in the past three months, the Germans have gone from being overwhelming, to stalemate, and now occasionally retaking some areas by the Soviets, and the initiative in the war has begun to pass slowly, which is based on the sacrifice of hundreds of millions of Soviets.
Frowning, Yu Zhiqian put his crosshairs on the head of an officer who was supervising the battle, Yu Zhiqian saw that this guy had killed at least a dozen Soviet soldiers, yes, the Soviets had killed a dozen Soviet soldiers.
On this battlefield, Yu Zhiqian is a neutral existence, although he wears the military uniform of the Germans, but Yu Zhiqian can attack the Germans and the Soviets, of course, everything is in his choice.
A large part of the reason why Yu Zhiqian did not take off the military uniform of the Germans and went to the Soviets was that Yu Zhiqian did not want to be used as cannon fodder, even if Yu Zhiqian was a major, but in this war, he was still cannon fodder.
Gently pulling the trigger, a not too obvious gunshot rang out, and it was quickly muffled by the whistling of bombers in the sky and the explosion on the ground, and the officer who was supervising the battle was shot in the chest in Yu Zhiqian's quasi-heart and fell to the ground.
"Enemy attack!"
"German snipers!"
"Watch for secrecy!"
The Warovers are usually located about a few hundred meters away from the front line, and they are relatively safe, this is the first time they have been attacked today, and it is their commander, and all the Warovers soldiers immediately panicked.
"Hide, don't you want to die?"
"You send people to search the building in front of you, there are evil Germans hiding inside!"
The rest of the officers of the Overseer shouted loudly, and a company of Soviet soldiers was sent out again to search the building not far away, Yu Zhiqian put his crosshairs on the body of another Overseer soldier, slowly pulled the trigger, and did not use a sniper rifle but a rifle point.
One shot at a time, in about two minutes, Yu Zhiqian killed a total of nearly 30 Overseer soldiers, and the last few surviving Overseer soldiers had lost their weapons and fled.
"Sir, the soldiers of the Warlord seem to have run away!"
The soldier who was advancing forward suddenly saw that the Overseer had disappeared behind him, and reminded his commander in a low voice.
"Keep going!"
The officer glanced behind him, although he wanted to retreat very much, but if he really retreated, he might encounter problems, the officer couldn't help but hold back, took a deep breath, and continued to move forward in the building not far away.
"Boom!"
An explosion sounded, and a shell landed not far from the group of soldiers, and the group of recruits were so frightened that they all fell to the ground in an instant, and when the group of soldiers regained their courage to stand up, some of the soldiers fled behind them.
No one stopped this group of fleeing soldiers, and after seeing that someone successfully escaped, more and more soldiers began to flee to the back, and the chain reaction was the same, more and more soldiers fled to the back, and there was no supervising team, this group of Soviet Union lacked the courage to move forward.
The group of officers took one look at it, thought for a while, and then slowly retreated backwards with the same choice.
Yu Zhiqian did not choose to attack this group of soldiers, but continued to look for the Soviet Warlords.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
“……”
Yu Zhiqian hit every shot, one shot at a time, and there was nothing missing, as long as the Soviet soldiers of the supervision team were all targets of Yu Zhiqian, and Yu Zhiqian changed five or six positions, and most of the soldiers of the Soviet supervision team were already panicking and did not dare to come forward.
Lacking the cover of the Warlords, the Soviet soldiers on the front line suddenly relented, and when the Germans attacked again, some of the Soviets began to retreat, and then the more and more funny Soviet soldiers retreated from their positions, and the positions changed hands again.
This is the time the Germans have retaken the railway station area for an unknown number of times, and this time the Germans did not celebrate with much vigour, and all German veterans knew that this was just the beginning, and that they would soon have to face a storm of Soviet attacks!
Experienced soldiers, at the beginning, began to quickly form their own defensive front, waiting for the Soviets to counterattack, and some recruits, looking at the veterans around them are silently preparing, also joined in, except for the officers on the battlefield to read orders, the overall discipline is not bad.
Yu Zhiqian glanced at it and found that there was no big problem, squinted his eyes and held the weapon, looking for a corner to squint for a while, but soon heard footsteps coming from downstairs, and the muzzle of the gun was aimed at the position of the door, squinting and waiting.
The footsteps were neat, and when they got downstairs, a voice came: "I'm Colonel Conings!" ”
After Yu Zhiqian heard it, he slowly lowered the muzzle of the gun, with a pure German accent, and Konings was the German colonel who was killed by Vasily Zaitsev in the movie of Soldiers in the City, and he was also the principal of the German sniper school that made Zaitsev famous
Soon, a German colonel with two subordinates walked up slowly, and immediately saw Yu Zhiqian in the corner, Konings did not look very old, very well maintained, in the difficult environment of Stalingrad, he actually had the heart to take care of his beard, and he seemed to be a Junker nobleman who attached great importance to the details of his life.
"Hello, Major!"
"Hello sir!"
Yu Zhiqian said hello and looked at the German sniper king curiously, no one has recorded how much actual combat experience there is, some people say that he has killed more than 1,000 enemies, and some people say that he is just a theoretical school, in fact he is not very strong, he just teaches others to shoot, that's all.
"You were just fighting the Soviet people's warlords?"
Yu Zhiqian nodded slowly, he didn't understand what this guy was looking for him, and he didn't want to communicate too much with the German soldiers, because the comrades-in-arms you met here, maybe you would wake up tomorrow morning and find them into cold corpses!
"Yes!"
"Good shot, I don't know you? Who did you learn from? ”
Just now, Konings heard an orderly gunfire from the chaos, and he observed in the distance, as soon as the shot rang out, a Soviet overseer soldier would fall, and he was very curious about who could shoot so accurately.
The snipers in Germany started very late, and there was only one sniper school, and the snipers on the front line of the German army were all his students, and he knew them all.
"Self-taught, sir!"
Conings looked at Yu Zhiqian's appearance, as if he didn't want to talk, but as a sniper instructor, he knew that many snipers were withdrawn and unwilling to communicate with people, and at the same time, he also noticed the strange gun in Yu Zhiqian's hand, which was very beautiful!
"Is this your gun? Can I take a look? ”
"Sir, this gun was left to me by my father, so ......"
"Understand, your father was a firearms designer?"
"Yes, but died on the battlefield!"
"It's a pity!"
The two of them chatted without a word, Yu Zhiqian finally slowly closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, and Conings shrugged his shoulders and left after seeing that Yu Zhiqian was unwilling to deal with him, the other party is also a young school official, and he has no affiliation with him, so there is no need to answer all his questions.
"With such a powerful sniper, it seems that I don't need to do it!"
Glancing back at the building above, Cornings muttered to himself and returned to his resting place, having received an order to come to the front line to take out a sniper, a sniper named Vasily Zaitsev.
This man had already killed dozens of German soldiers, but for some reason, the Germans had blocked the news, and the soldiers had not known about it for the time being, and if the German soldiers knew that a Soviet sniper could kill so many of their comrades in just a few days, there might be unnecessary panic.
When Conings left, Yu Zhiqian slowly opened his eyes, looked at the direction in which Conings left, and muttered to himself: "Conings?" That king of German snipers? It seems that Vasily will fight him in the end! ”
After finishing speaking, Yu Zhiqian looked at the sun and continued to sleep, the day is not the time when his combat effectiveness is the strongest, with night vision devices, night is his home field.
Yu Zhiqian was already ready for two things, the first was to sneak into the Soviet-controlled area at night, grab some tongues, and see if he could ask for the location of Vasily or Yu Yang.
Of course, this method is like looking for a needle in a haystack, a sniper rarely reveals his location, unless it is someone close to him, or an observer, and finding them is as difficult as finding the sniper himself.
If he can't find it, Yu Zhiqian can only follow Conings, and follow him himself, and sooner or later a battle will break out between the two of them, and then he can kill Vasily with one shot.
The current Yu Zhiqian is no longer the Yu Zhiqian when he faced Simon Heyer, Yu Zhiqian is confident that he only needs one shot to kill Vasily, no matter where he encounters it, he can, this is his confidence in himself.
The sun is setting towards the west little by little, and as the sun continues to set, the warmth that can be emitted begins to become limited, some people say that it is not the Russians who defeated the Germans, but the cold of this land, this statement is not a problem, in fact, the Germans themselves are also one of the culprits who defeated themselves.
Poor logistical supplies, so that the Germans in this thing, lack of warm rooms, every night there will be countless soldiers will never wake up, the same Soviets also discovered the weakness of the Germans, when the night falls, it is the moment of their counteroffensive.
