Chapter 404: Japanese Sniper

"The Japanese machine gunners are up! Beware of concealment! ”

A soldier next to Xie Jinyuan died, Xie Jinyuan glanced at the wound, it was not an ordinary rifle, he quickly took out a telescope and looked over, and saw that around the ruins, a heavy machine gun was erected, and two of them were relatively fast and had already fired, suppressing the fire of the Sixing warehouse.

"Dai Qiang, Chen Yun, Zhao Dehan, Mao Sanbai, you and I fight the machine gunner of the devil, Lao Xie, the machine gunner hand it over to us! You can take care of other things! After finishing speaking, Yu Zhiqian put down the 38 cover in his hand and picked up his rifle that was placed aside.

"Good!"

Yu Zhiqian's weapon comes with an adjustable four-fold or eight-fold weapon, and if he looks in the direction of the ruins, he can clearly see the temporary machine-gun positions set up by the Japanese one after another around the ruins bunker.

These machine-gun positions were set up in a hollow in the ruins, very hidden, and then a machine gunner strafed the four rows of warehouses, although it did not cause much damage, but it made it impossible for the defenders in the building to open fire unscrupulously.

Yu Zhiqian aimed at a machine gunner who only showed half of his head, and the Japanese machine gunner, after suffering several losses, was also a lot smarter, and would not find a place to start shooting as soon as he lay down, but concealed himself as much as possible, even if he did not have too big a shooting angle.

"Watch out for some gaps in the ruins, the devils may be hiding behind!" Yu Zhiqian said as he aimed his crosshair at the devil's green steel helmet, and gently pulled the trigger with his fingers.

After the scope, the bullet accurately hit the devil's steel helmet, the Japanese fell backwards, Yu Zhiqian was just about to look for the next target, when he saw another steel helmet coming up, it should be the deputy machine gunner on the top position, but the deputy machine gunner was killed by Yu Zhiqian before he could pull the trigger.

The five men were in the five corners, constantly shooting the Japanese, and the machine gunners occasionally found that the Japanese officers would also take them away, making the Japanese almost viable, and still charging forward with their lives.

The road in front of the Sihang warehouse, which had just been washed away by the rainstorm, was now a muddy ground, mixed with red flesh and blood, earthy yellow Japanese military uniforms, and a corpse, twenty to thirty meters away, where the most corpses of Japanese soldiers were located, and even the number of corpses piled up in some sections needed to be climbed by Japanese soldiers to climb over.

"Sir, the sharpshooters of the Chinese army are so powerful during the day that our machine gunners were killed by the sharpshooters of the Chinese army before they could suppress the firepower!"

An officer ran to Sanbei out of breath, bent down to report the situation to Sanbei, and after Sanbei heard it, he threw the teacup in his hand to the ground: "The Chinese army has sharpshooters, don't we have any?" ”

"Hayi!"

The Japanese army finally stormed the Sihang warehouse, but the number of people who rushed into the warehouse was very small, and less than twenty Japanese soldiers worked hard to step on the corpses of their predecessors and rush into the warehouse.

However, the soldiers who want to rush into the Sixing Warehouse in the future need to face the guns of all the defenders on the second to sixth floors of the Sixing Warehouse, and they will become lucky ones if they dodge these bullets, and if they can't become lucky ones, they will fall on the way to charge.

Becoming lucky ones was only a few more seconds to live, and that's all, when they rushed into the Sixing warehouse, they were waiting for rows of Chinese soldiers who had already been ready.

Just like the era of queuing to shoot, the defenders in the Chinese building stood in two rows of dislocation, and the muzzle of the gun was aimed at a few places where there were not many people who could rush in, and when a Japanese soldier rushed in, they would immediately raise their guns to shoot, and after the shot, they quickly took a step back, pulled the bolt again, and a person behind them was connected, ensuring that the fire was not intermittent.

This trick is also Yu Zhiqian's hand, in fact, they are some simple tactics, many people understand, but they don't know how to apply, when they cooperate at the beginning, the reaction is not bad, and there will be simultaneous shooting, and there will be a firepower gap, giving the Japanese an opportunity.

But with the tacit understanding of cooperation, as long as the Japanese soldiers rushed in one person, one person would be killed, and there was no chance to break through into the warehouse and engage the Chinese soldiers in a white-knuckle battle.

In terms of the Japanese army, Sanbei gathered more than 20 veterans with good marksmanship in the army and prepared to form a team of sharpshooters, that is, the earliest sniper team, but the weapons in the hands of these soldiers were still 38 big covers and no sights.

More than twenty sharpshooters prepared by the Japanese, mixed with ordinary soldiers, approached quickly towards the four rows of warehouses, and looked no different from ordinary soldiers.

However, when the group of soldiers reached a position of about 100 meters, they did not choose to continue to advance, but looked around, looked for suitable cover, and quickly lay down.

After the more than 20 Japanese sharpshooters lay down, they carefully moved their bodies to find a suitable angle to shoot.

"Bang!"

With a crisp gunshot, a Japanese sharpshooter shot a Chinese soldier on the third floor, but not in the head, but in the shoulder.

"Send to the fourth floor!" The squad leader next to him immediately moved the wounded soldier aside, took his weapon himself, and continued the fight.

After the Japanese sharpshooters joined, they achieved certain results, but the Chinese defenders did not discover their existence at the first time and paid a certain number of casualties.

But soon, Yan Qi, who was on the fourth floor, was lying on the hospital bed and found a problem: "Sir, there are a bit more wounded in the past ten minutes, more than one or two hours before?" ”

Yu Zhiqian had just heard it, but before he could answer, a soldier next to him was killed by a shot in the head.

Yu Zhiqian quickly walked over to check his wounds, calculated in his mind where the bullet came from, quickly picked up the weapon, and changed the window to look at it.

Soon, Yu Zhiqian found a sneaky Japanese soldier hiding in the corner, only half of his head was exposed, not a big target like a heavy machine gun, squatting behind a cover in the ruins, and it was difficult to find it if he didn't pay attention to it.

"There are snipers, three hundred, you guys get rid of snipers first!"

"Roger, head!"

After Mao Sanbai and the others received the order, they immediately began to search for the snipers hiding in the ruins.

The snipers of this era, except for Germany and the United Kingdom, have the corresponding training, and most countries do not have the concept of snipers.

The Japanese had only heard of this name, but they had no training, and it was not until the Pacific War that a large number of cannon fodder snipers were trained.

Now the people who are fighting against Yu Zhiqian and others can only be said to be some Japanese veterans, these people are quite experienced, but their camouflage experience is really poor.

Some also knew not to expose themselves as much as possible, and some directly exposed most of their bodies and shot at the four rows of warehouses on the ruins without concealment.

"Found you!" Zhao Dehan just scanned the circle with the magnifier and found three Japanese snipers, but the three Japanese soldiers didn't know that they had been targeted by death and were still looking for their targets.

Dai Qiang was at the highest point and found more, but his position was not suitable for exposing half of his body to shoot, so he could only constantly report the position of the Japanese sniper to Yu Zhiqian and others.

"Half past nine, behind the waste, two people!"

"Roger!"

After Mao Sanbai received the news, he immediately aimed at the position that Dai Qiang said, and sure enough, he found two Japanese snipers lying there, these two people were not badly disguised, at least they knew that their clothes were disguised in similar colors to the surrounding ones, but they were still a little worse, and they were recognized at a glance.

"Whew!"

With a soft sound, Mao 300 killed one of the Japanese snipers, turned the muzzle of the gun slightly, and aimed at the second Japanese sniper.

Within three seconds, two Japanese snipers were killed.

"At twelve o'clock, there is a sniper behind the ruins of the first tank, two on the left and three on the right!"

"I'll give these six people!"

After hearing Dai Qiang's words, Yu Zhiqian quickly changed to a relatively remote window, half a ton of body, and aimed at the ruins of the first tank.

A Japanese man behind the tank, after pulling the trigger, made a general observation, and after finding that there was no gunfire in the window where he was shooting, he nodded with satisfaction, pulled the bolt, and prepared to continue looking for the target.

The Japanese soldier silently recited five in his heart, which was the fifth person he had hit today, but he could not be sure whether he was dead or not, so he could only write down the number and report it.

Just as he was looking for a target, he suddenly saw a faint gunfire in the remote window on the left side of the Sixing warehouse, which flashed by.

"Nani!"

His instincts told him that the bullet was aimed at him, but he didn't have time to react, and could only mutter softly before falling in a pool of blood.

After first eliminating the Japanese sniper in the middle, Yu Zhiqian moved his muzzle to the Japanese sniper on the left.

But when he turned his gun, he saw one of the Japanese snipers rushing to the side of the soldier he had just killed.

Yu Zhiqian did not choose to kill him, but still chose the target according to his own plan.

More than ten seconds later, all these Japanese snipers were killed by Yu Zhiqian.

More than 20 snipers achieved some success before they were first discovered, but after being exposed, all of them were killed quickly.

"Lao Xie, let the brothers pay attention, the devil has a sniper, pay attention to the distance of one or two hundred meters!"

After finishing out all the snipers, Yu Zhiqian rested against the wall, feeling a little tired now, and from yesterday afternoon to now, he didn't have time to rest properly.

Xie Jinyuan also sat next to Yu Zhiqian a little tiredly: "Okay, but sir, is it called a sniper?" ”

"As for the sniper, I guess this concept is not popular now, but after two years of fighting in Europe, it will become popular! Now it's called a sharpshooter at most! ”

Speaking of sharpshooters, Xie Jinyuan can understand a little, Yu Zhiqian smiled: "The so-called sniper is the improvement of the sharpshooter, and in the future, there will be special weapons, which can kill the enemy in a few hundred meters or even two thousand meters or so!" ”

Hearing Yu Zhiqian's words, Xie Jinyuan grew his mouth: "Two thousand meters, this is too far!" ”

"In the future, our country will have that kind of missile, which can hit tens of thousands of kilometers!"

Xie Jinyuan had a look of yearning in his eyes, Yu Zhiqian felt that he had enough rest, and got up from the ground: "Keep fighting, I don't know when the little devil will retreat!" ”

As soon as the words fell, there was an excited shout: "The devil has retreated!" ”

The Japanese attack, which had lasted for about an hour, was over, and when it was learned that all the snipers had been killed, Sanbei sighed and gave the order to retreat.

Sanbei looked at the Sixing warehouse from a distance of about 500 meters, staring at it deadly, unwilling to take his eyes off, he didn't understand why a small warehouse with the handle of the Chinese army couldn't be captured by himself.

The Battle of Songhu, in which millions of Chinese troops were invested, took it with only 300,000 troops, and now they have thousands of people in their hands, and they can't take a warehouse garrisoned by a few hundred people, and Sanbei himself feels humiliated.

One day, 24 hours of attack, both wings suffered heavy losses, the eyes of the three guards, those who retreated in a hurry, embarrassed, even some soldiers lying on the ground pretending to be dead, after hearing the retreat order, got up again, and retreated with both hands and feet.

These once imperial warriors are now cowards, cowards, frightened by the fragile Chinese army.

"Sir!" The staff officer beside him lightly touched Sanbei.

Sanbei glanced up at his staff officer, and suddenly said: "If the Chinese army is like this, the empire is in danger!" ”

After hearing this, the staff officer nodded: "This Chinese army is worthy of admiration, they are very tenacious, and they are completely different from the Chinese troops we encountered before who were defeated in one blow!" ”

"But they are enemies of the Empire, and they must be destroyed!"

Sanbei's face changed, and he looked at his subordinates: "Call for air tactical guidance, let the planes raze this warehouse to the ground!" ”

The staff officer nodded after hearing this, and immediately left to start contact, but soon a bad news came: "Wing Commander, now there are no bombers around Shanghai that can support us, they have all been sent out to pursue the Chinese army, and now the Chinese army has reorganized the defense line in Suzhou, and it is a fierce firefight!" ”

When Sanbei heard this, his eyes dimmed: "That's it! ”

After finishing speaking, he picked up his katana and slowly walked to the headquarters, he needed to report the latest situation to his general Ito Masaaki, and he himself was ready for seppuku.

Their own wing will definitely not be able to take the warehouse before tonight, there are serious casualties, the first, second, and third infantry brigades have suffered heavy losses, and after removing the wounded, there are not even more than a thousand people who can fight.

There were also losses in the baggage troops, and only one artillery squadron was left to be relatively intact.

A complete wing was pulled out and played for more than ten hours, but there was no progress, not to mention that now his own wing is already crippled?

"Take care of the wounded soldiers, add a meal at noon today, no need to attack without my order!"

"Hayi!"
