Chapter 19: Snipers

"Report to Battalion Commander Xu......" The black face was sharp-eyed, and as soon as he ran to the position, he found Xu Feng, who was talking to Regiment Commander Chu and Political Commissar Chen Ye on a map on the ammunition box, and several of them were wearing People's Army uniforms.

The black face saluted straight in front of him and said, "Report to the battalion commander, Company Commander Cui is here." ”

"Report!" I also saluted beside me.

"How, why is it only here now?" Xu Feng turned his head and saw that it was me, so he couldn't help but reprimand me.

"Save the criticism for later." It was still the head of the Chu regiment who was in a hurry, so he pulled me to the map and said: "The situation is like this, we are very angry in this location - in the valley. In front of them, there was a battalion of the enemy, all British. The guns were accurate, especially a sharpshooter, who specialized in hitting the zha medicine bag in the hands of our soldiers, causing great casualties and psychological burden to the attacking troops. Comrade Cui Wei, can you ......?"

"I know." Seeing that Regiment Commander Chu was a little hesitant, I simply replied: "Go and knock out the enemy's sharpshooter!" ”

"Have faith?" Head Chu nodded.

"Let's talk about it!" I replied with a solemn expression.

My personality is that I never say those empty words of encouragement, because I know that confidence is based on strength, and no matter how much empty words I say, I will not be able to strengthen myself.

"Company Commander Cui!" Political Commissar Chen Ye came over and patted me on the shoulder and said, "Your task is very heavy, although you are only a sharpshooter, but he has a great impact on the attacking troops. If we can't fight before dawn, the strength of our two regiments will be blocked here, and the consequences will be unimaginable as soon as the morning dawns! ”

After a pause, Chen Ye introduced me to a People's Army officer next to him and said, "This is Cui Chengxi, the head of the People's Army. ”

"Hello!" Choi Sung-hee enthusiastically walked up to me in Korean and shook my hand and said, "We have met, Comrade Translator. ”

"Huh?" I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, and looked at the smiling KPA officer in front of me, and it took me a long time to remember that he was the North Korean officer who had been captured by the US military in the first battle. I still remember punching him at the time, but I didn't expect him to be a regiment leader......

At that time, Head Chu was also present, thinking of this, I couldn't help but look at Head Chu, Head Chu just smiled noncommittally, I must have remembered that incident a long time ago.

"I'm going to see the terrain!" After speaking, I ignored Cui Chengxi, who was smiling, and walked towards the position with my gun on my back.

Damn, offended a regimental commander. As I walked, I thought to myself, fortunately, it happened before the union of China and North Korea, otherwise I am afraid that the crime of beating the chief officer would not be escapable.

The cat trotted all the way up to the position, lying in the trench and looking ahead, there was an open field in front of him, where the two roads merged, and then went straight through the two high grounds, next to which were built a few mud-walled bungalows, which looked like a school.

At this time, the front of the open field was already blurred with flesh and blood, and the snow should have been white under the moonlight, but at this time, it was already black in the east and black in the west, and there were corpses and blood stains, and I don't know how many volunteers died here.

This Briton is worthy of being a veteran from World War II, and the terrain he chooses is strange. The two highlands and the three firepower points of the school under the high ground can support each other and seal off a three-way road.

In addition, there are three tanks parked next to the school and on the road, one "Churchill" infantry tank in the middle of the road, and two "Captain Hundred" tanks on both sides of the school, one on the left and one on the right.

At this time, I could feel the pain of the volunteers, who had no heavy firepower, and even the only heavily armed mortars they had were too cold to fire. At this time, if you want to capture the steel fortification in front of you, which occupies a favorable position and is covered by tanks, you can only rely on flesh and blood to blow up the zha medicine bag. But there is also the British sharpshooter who uses our zha medicine bag as a target to practice marksmanship......

The only advantage of this terrain is that the road in front of them is a steep slope, and the position of the volunteers is on the top of the steep slope, which can make the volunteers charge a lot faster, but what can this be considered in front of the iron fortress?

I slowly reached out of my rifle and looked through the scope to see the enemy's position, hoping to find something, but I regretted that they were well hidden.

But I wouldn't dare to shoot even if a target was exposed to my guns, because I knew it wasn't the person I was going to deal with, and my opponent wouldn't make such a low-level mistake, and shooting easily would only make him wary.

"What's going on?" At this time, Xu Feng crawled to my side and asked in a low voice, "Do you see any fame?" ”

I shook my head wordlessly, the strength of a battalion is about three hundred, even if these three hundred people stand in front of me and let me recognize, it is almost impossible to recognize which one is the other party's sniper, not to mention that the other party is still hiding in the bunker.

"Where did the chief of staff of the division die?" I asked in a whisper.

"Right there!" Xu Feng pointed to a piece of land more than ten meters away in front of him, where there was still a pool of black blood, which had already formed ice in the temperature of more than 20 degrees below zero.

I nodded, and looked at the terrain again, now at least knowing that my opponent was hiding in the school opposite. Because those two heights are at least 800 meters away from here. Although the range of the British Lee-Enfield rifle is more than 900 meters, it is only a theoretical range, and it can hit a target beyond 800 meters in actual combat.

Will he change locations? I asked myself how often snipers shoot a sniper target and change places for fear of being discovered.

"Telescope?" I poked Xu Feng next to me, and he only hummed and took off the binoculars around his neck and handed it to me.

I held the binoculars on the butt of my gun, thought about it and borrowed a gun from the soldier next to me, I didn't want my beloved sniper rifle to be broken by that guy, if that was the case, what else would I do to fight him.

Then, in Xu Feng's puzzled eyes, I stared at the school opposite, and slowly stretched the telescope out of the trench, and the lens of the telescope emitted a little cold light into the corner of my eye under the illumination of the moonlight, and I suddenly understood why the enemy's sniper would shoot the enemy in the dark night.

At this time, there was a "bang" of gunshots, and a bullet hit the trunk of the tree not far behind the telescope very accurately, and I hurriedly retracted my hand, and then looked at the position of the bullet hole, which was only a dozen centimeters away from the place where I stretched out the telescope just now.
