Chapter 26: Concealment and Traps
This is an absolutely unfair duel.
First of all, Sima Guan is a veteran who has been training for more than a year, while Li An is only a recruit who has been training for three months.
Secondly, Sima Guan took the lead and occupied a certain advantage, and was fully armed, only equipped with live ammunition.
Ang Lee was naked.
Due to the constraints, it is impossible for Li An and Sima Guan to be equipped with positioning and camera systems, as well as electronic devices that smoke as soon as they are shown on television.
Sima Guan was able to get weapons and equipment, and the ultimate reason was that he had an uncle who was the battalion commander behind him.
Li An is different, because there is no backstage, he can't even bring an ordinary eight-step into the back mountain.
The reason is very simple, if you run away with a gun, it will be a big problem.
In order not to have a gun accident, Li An could only enter the back mountain with his empty hands.
Li Ang didn't complain, a gun without bullets was not even as good as a burning stick.
Strap on the body in addition to looking cow. I really don't know what use it is to force a little.
Increasing your own weight?
Therefore, without carrying a weapon, Ang Lee fell easily.
Sima Guan has been training in this mountain forest for more than a year, and it can be said that he knows the terrain well.
When Li An walked out of the company after eating and drinking, Sima Guan had already occupied a supreme point and hid under the cover of the "auspicious" suit.
Through the telescope, Sima Guan saw Li An walking slowly into the back mountain.
"Smack."
Sima Guan made a move to pull the trigger, and said with a disdainful expression: "Recruit egg, if this is a real battlefield, you have already been shot by me." Hmph, dare to challenge Lao Tzu, I really don't know whether to live or die. ”
This is not a real battlefield after all, otherwise Li An would not have dangled in front of Sima Guan empty-handed.
In Ang Li's eyes, Sima Guan is also a wonder.
That's right, snipers on the battlefield can use "Geely" to camouflage themselves perfectly, but you don't look at what time it is.
In December, winter has already begun.
Except for pine trees, which are evergreen all year round, the leaves have been lost, and the grass on the ground has withered and yellowed.
In other words, Sima Guan was wearing a green "auspicious" suit, which not only failed to make him achieve the effect of "disappearing", but made it easier for him to be exposed under the nose of the "enemy".
Li An didn't have a telescope, so he could only take a general glance up the mountain, and he didn't find the location of Sima Guan, but he knew in his heart that he was outside the enemy's surveillance.
The terrain in the mountains is complicated, but fortunately, during this time, Li An often went in and out of the back mountains for training, and he was familiar with this area.
As Zhang Nan said, Li An must first make himself "disappear" so that he can have a chance to defeat Sima Guan.
How do you make yourself disappear?
Quite simply, there is a valley one kilometer west of the mountain, and the terrain is so low-lying that you can't see the inside of the valley even from the highest point.
The valley is the decisive place that Ang Lee chose.
After entering the valley, Li An quickly looked at the surrounding environment and quickly selected a pine tree growing against the mountain.
Immediately to the right of the pine tree is a pile of withered weeds, perfect for hiding from people.
Li Ang chose the pine tree because he liked the weeds, moved a stone the size of a watermelon and threw it in the weeds, took off his shirt and spread it behind the stone, and then took off his hat and buckled it on the stone.
In this way, from a distance, it will be mistaken to think that someone is hiding inside.
Li An set a trap for Sima Guan, and then climbed to the top of the pine tree himself.
Living in the mountains since childhood, Ang Lee easily climbed to the top of the tree like a monkey.
This pine tree is at least 100 years old, with a large canopy and lush foliage.
Ang broke some tiny branches to camouflage himself, and then lay on a forked pole.
In this way he blends in with the pine trees, condescending and allowing him to see far away.
Sima Guan saw Li An enter the valley through the telescope, and scolded in his heart: "Idiot, I really have no experience at all. Snipers are supposed to occupy the highest point like I did, what can you see when you run that low? Wait to die. ”
Li An managed to make himself disappear from under Sima Guan's nose, and lay there motionless, quietly waiting for the fish to take the bait.
In Li An's opinion, at most, at night, Sima Guan couldn't help but take action.
The reason is just as simple, Sima Guan is carrying a lot of weapons and equipment.
It's okay to talk about it during the day, but once it's night, the challenge hasn't been decided yet, and Lian Li has to worry about whether Sima Guan will escape with a weapon.
At that time, all the officers and soldiers of the company will appear to search, and the challenge will be suspended.
In order not to let this bad situation happen, Sima Guan could only choose to end the challenge before the sun set.
Moreover, as a "well-trained" veteran, there is no way to solve a new recruit after wasting a day, and Sima Guan has no face.
From the outset, the challenge was a constant battle of patience.
On the battlefield, a real sniper is no longer able to hide for a long time in order not to be detected by the enemy, and at the same time to wait for a suitable opportunity to shoot.
Therefore, stealth and long-lasting endurance are also a must for a qualified sniper.
Ang Lee has a tenacious will.
Camouflage with pine branches is uncomfortable, and lying on the trunk of a tree is never as easy as you might think.
Li Ang endured all this pain, and he had completely become one with the pine tree.
On the other hand, Sima Guan's willpower is far from as good as Li An imagined.
Sima Guan's long-term neglect of training caused him to lie there for less than an hour before he felt uncomfortable.
Within half an hour, Sima Guan had already changed three postures.
If it had been on the battlefield, he would have been spotted by an experienced observer.
By noon, Sima Guan had lost his patience, especially the thick "auspicious" suit that made him irritable under the sun.
Finally, at one o'clock, Sima Guan couldn't hold his breath.
"How did that recruit egg disappear?
Damn bastard. Egg, don't think that if you can't hide, I won't be able to take you.
Wait and see, I'll get you out and shoot you. ”
With a curse in his heart, Sima Guan came down from the highest point and walked towards the valley.
Sima Guan had not really entered the valley before he had already been discovered by Li An.
Because this guy's green color is so dazzling, it's impossible not to see it.
Thinking he was smart, Sima Guan hid behind a rock at the entrance to the valley and then observed with the help of a sniper riflescope.
Soon he found his target, "Ang Lee" hiding in the weeds.
"Ang Lee, I saw you, come out." Sima Guan shouted with his gun.
