Chapter 739: Boring Waiting

In the observation mirror, the trail is quiet, not to mention people, and small animals can't see a single one.

The solemn eyes never left the target area.

The trail is 462 meters away.

Solemn has made precise measurements with a laser rangefinder.

And because it is a valley, when choosing a position, the shooting direction is set along the direction of the valley, extending from east to west, so it is SF, even if there is a slight crosswind, it is only some oblique crosswinds with an angle of less than 30 degrees, and the impact on the trajectory is not too great.

The camouflaged 85 sniper rifle has been loaded with the best special rounds, all parameters have been calculated in advance and pre-loaded.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

As long as the target appears, send the situation here to Command, and the mission of the two is completed.

As long as there are no accidents, no shots will be fired.

As for the fact that he may not be able to shoot, although Zhuang Zhuang understands that this is the best choice from the position of Lao Baimao, but for himself, he still has some regrets.

He rubbed his eyes, pulled out the eye drops in his pocket, unscrewed the lid, and gently squeezed two drops into his eyes.

The cold eye drops make the eyes feel cool and invigorating.

Ba blinked his eyelids a few times, and solemnly moved his gaze to the path again.

The reconnaissance mission cannot be relaxed for a moment, you don't even know when the enemy will appear, the only thing you can do is wait.

And you don't dare to look away, in case there is any enemy situation that cannot be controlled in time, it will also lead to the failure of the mission.

Therefore, for long-term monitoring, it is necessary to carry a tripod, set up the observation glass, aim at the target area, adjust the focal length and field of view, find the most comfortable position to lie down, and lie there for monitoring.

Two people, each in a 4-hour shift, rotate surveillance.

At 3 o'clock in the morning, he solemnly took over the shift, and it was already 6:50 in the morning, and the sky had begun to turn white.

He reached out and turned off the night vision switch.

This saves some electricity.

In order to maintain the seven-day surveillance, all kinds of equipment needed spare batteries, and the two of them carried a full 5 kilograms of batteries alone.

In Special Operations missions, everything has to be carefully calculated, as each piece of equipment will take up your weight limit.

Therefore, all the equipment used by the general special forces is as lightweight as possible, and is made of titanium, aluminum, carbon fiber or high-strength engineering plastics, which can save a little weight.

"Tired?"

The old white hair, who was sleeping in the sniper position, rolled over and woke up.

This sniper position is a typical two-man position, and can also be used as an observation post.

According to the number of personnel and the length of the mission, sniper positions in the field are generally divided into temporary, simple and permanent.

The temporary one is the simplest, and is used for a short stay in the mission area or when the best firing point is too close to the enemy's position to dig a position, and is afraid of being detected by the enemy.

This is the most common in film and television works.

Find a bush at random, find a gravel pile or the like, simply use the auspicious suit and nearby plants to disguise the ugly, and cleverly use the environment to achieve the best camouflage and concealment effect.

The simplicity of the sniper position is also simple. This kind of position is mostly suitable for use in plains or desert areas where there are no tall trees around you because of the terrain restrictions, and the use of the rain cloth and camouflage net you carry is to scatter the surrounding sand on the rain cloth supported by backpack straps or climbing ropes to achieve the camouflage effect.

Of course, if you wish, there is also a quick-drying spray paint that you can use to carry it, which also has good results.

The solemn and old white-haired duo made a permanent sniper position.

Because you have to stay here for seven days, and the surrounding environment is extremely harsh, cold, dry, and occasionally snowflakes fall in the wild, and the temperature is below zero for a long time.

If you don't have a good position, let alone seven days, three days people will hang up, not to mention what to complete the task.

No matter how awesome a sniper is, he is also a human being.

Man is an ant in front of nature, and you should not try to use your own abilities to resist it, but use effective resources to adapt to it.

Multiplayer permanent sniper positions can vary in shape if viewed from above.

For example, there is a "Y" shape, with one person in each of the two forks in the front and a tail in the back for supplies.

Or longitudinal rectangular or transverse rectangular positions.

Large sniper positions can even accommodate the next operational squad.

The solemn and old white-haired positions are the simplest of the permanent positions, longitudinal rectangular, only 40CM in depth and 1.5m in width, camouflaged with tarpaulin and camouflage nets, and only sprinkled with a thin layer of sand because there is no vegetation here.

But even so, the camouflage effect has exploded.

The camouflage net is specially made and has the function of blocking infrared spillover, so even if infrared reconnaissance is carried out in the sky, the sniper team on the ground cannot be seen.

"It's okay, not tired." He solemnly said, "There are still ten minutes, and you will sleep again." ”

Lao Baimao rubbed his hands, moved his knuckles, and said, "Okay, I'll eat something, and then change your shift." ”

After that, he took out a bag of self-heating food, poured water on it and started heating it - water is not a problem here, because there is a snow field not far from the position, and you can climb out and dig some back at night.

Poured in, need to wait a while before eating.

Old White Fur removed the rucksack, revealing a small pit in the ground, and he put the self-heating food bag in it and covered it with the rucksack.

This avoids the release of too much heat, and although camouflage nets and tarpaulins can isolate some of the infrared spills, they cannot be prevented.

Lao Baimao looked at the watch, after twenty minutes, the thing will cool down after heating, and the temperature will reach about 40 degrees, and you can eat it with peace of mind.

"What's going on?"

Old White Fur leaned over and picked up the task notebook that was placed next to the observation scope.

The manual is recorded on an hourly basis.

The function and advantage is that it can record all abnormal changes in the target area, as well as changes in temperature, wind direction, etc.

This is conducive to making a reference, knowing the rules of temperature, wind speed, and wind direction in different periods of time near your position, which is conducive to your quick binding and shooting when you shoot later.

After reading the task manual, Lao Baimao turned over, lay on the ground, turned his back to the sky, looked at the top of the tarpaulin, and said, "How do you feel?" Isn't it far from what you imagined? ”

Solemnly stared at the observation mirror and said softly: "It's a little different, but it's okay, don't forget, I'm professionally trained." ”

The old white fur smiled "hehe" and didn't speak.

Solemnity suddenly remembered something.

He glanced at the old white hair lying on the ground with his hands curled, and asked, "No. 0, can you tell me something?" ”

"What's the matter?" The old white-haired eyes were still looking straight at the roof of the shed.

"I, Captain Han, also went to participate in your training back then?"

"Yes." The old white fur didn't blink his eyelids.

"Defeated?"

"Defeated."

"Why?"

Old Baimao didn't answer immediately this time.

Zhuang Zhuang felt that he had asked a question that should not be asked, and he did not dare to ask it.

After a long time, Lao Baimao said slowly: "You really want to know?" ”
