Chapter 19: The Duel
With the fall of the artillery observer, there was not a single living thing in my sight. The sun was white and the snow was flat, and in front of the position, except for pools of blood and a few corpses, there were only cold winds and snow 'flowers'.
I didn't dare count the corpses on the battlefield because it would make me feel guilty. Even though I knew that this was a war, even though I knew that I was killing the enemy, even though I knew that if I didn't kill them, they would do everything they could to kill me, but they were all real lives, flesh and blood lives!
I closed my eyes, trying to keep it all out of my sight, but as soon as I did, my mind was filled with the painful face of the artillery observer and his insistence on life.
So I had to open my eyes again,"
In the trenches not far away, the American troops obviously saw all this, but they did not dare to come up to see if there were any living people, nor did they dare to come up to carry the corpses. Not even the one who popped out of his head. Because they know that the chances of these comrades-in-arms lying near the gun position are almost zero.
But I'm sure they'll come up. Suddenly, there was still a burst of artillery fire behind me.
The bombardment by the US artillery was very violent, round after round, and the heat "waves" came one after another, and the explosions came one after another, shaking the snow on the bushes and falling down one by one.
Feeling a slight stinging in my eyes, I closed my eyes and rested for a while, trying not to think about the artillery observer who had just died under my men, and concentrating all my 'energy' on the cold coming from my surroundings. But things are so strange sometimes, and sometimes the more things I don't want to think about, the more they come to mind, so much so that I wonder if I could do it all over again."
The cannonade stopped. My eyes opened.
It's time for those Americans to make some sorts! It was with great difficulty that they had once again mastered the top position, and they would not have given up this position so easily. They will pin their hopes on this artillery fire, and they will hope that this artillery fire will give us a lot of casualties.
The U.S. military has always been too 'superstitious' about the power of modern weapons. The reason for this is largely due to their own fear of modern weapons.
Because every time they see their artillery fire turning the enemy's position over several times, and every time they see their own incendiary bombs burning the opponent's hill into a mountain of flames, they will think that if they were on that hill, they will definitely die. Even if you're lucky enough to still have your life, I'm afraid it's going to collapse.
But what they didn't expect was that since the founding of the army, the Volunteer Army had been fighting with weak equipment against an enemy who was several times stronger than itself, and this was the case when fighting against the Kuomintang, and this was the case when fighting against Little Japan. Now it's even more so to fight with the United ***!
The so-called "born in sorrow, died in peace!" It is precisely this long-term experience of fighting in weak equipment that has cultivated the strong will and tenacious vitality of the volunteers, which has made the US army have accidents again and again on this battlefield!
Of course, this time there will be no exception, and we will still surprise the US military once.
Perhaps the U.S. military is accustomed to 'sex' "accidents." , so they behaved carefully this time.
This is not? After the sound of the cannonballs, there was no movement for a while, and Liangjian saw a "head" poking out, and the reason why I put quotation marks around this "head" was because I immediately saw that it was nothing more than a wooden man wearing an American-style net helmet. The wooden man was only about fifty meters away from me, and at this distance, I could clearly see the grain on the wood in the scope.
The Yankees just love to play this kind of trick, so I was thinking that if I was playing this kind of trick, maybe I would be laughed at by my comrades-in-arms as "greedy for life and afraid of death".
Just then, out of the corner of my eye, I suddenly saw a pile of bushes on my left hand side move slightly, so slight that I almost ignored it. But a whole year of combat experience has taught me that the more you are on the battlefield, the more dangerous it is to overlook.
I turned my gaze to the bushes, and just then, the barrel of a gun, also wrapped in a white cloth, slowly protruded from the bushes.
"Sniper!" I couldn't help but be taken aback when I saw this. But soon calmed down.
The snipers of the US army have finally appeared!
There is a saying that "the best weapon against a sniper is a sniper!" "So it is also common sense that the enemy sent snipers to deal with our cold guns and cold artillery movements. What I don't understand is why the U.S. military sent snipers to fight us so late. With the US military's 'communication' equipment and communication equipment, if the troops on the front line need it, they will send a few snipers to the battlefield, and it will not be required in the morning and will arrive in the afternoon." However, after thinking about it, I quickly understood that the main reason was that the US military did not think that the volunteers had "snipers, in fact, we are not" snipers. "Many volunteer fighters don't even know" snipers. What the hell is it?" we all call "sharpshooters" in the Volunteer Army.
And judging from the several battles fought in the Korean War, it seems that the US military is not very suitable for using snipers on the front-line battlefield. This is because the attack of the Volunteer Army is often a group attack by a large army or a division at the beginning, and it is interspersed, divided and encircled, and then encircled and annihilated. In the face of this offensive of the volunteers, a fighter with extremely 'fine' marksmanship was accurate. In the frontal battlefield, the role of the seven is often not as good as that of an ordinary machine, so the snipers of the US military often have not played a role. It is necessary to directly face the bayonets of the volunteers,,
As a result, the US military's "sea of fire tactics and sea of blood tactics" were born. Under the guidance of these tactical ideas, most of the US military arranges snipers in special forces to carry out special operations in specific battles, but rarely arranges snipers on front-line battlefields. For example, the airborne special forces of the helicopter that I remember deeply were carried out after the helicopter airborne special forces went to the flank of our army.
But now the U.S. military apparently recognizes that the situation is a little different from what it used to be.
This is because the "sharpshooters" of the volunteer army have become a "sniper" cold gun and cold artillery movement in the actual sense after they have undergone the necessary training and learned to lurk, which is actually a sniper war developed under the specific situation of negotiations.
The other party is not a master!
I quickly came to this conclusion. The reason is simple: while the bushes provide good cover for the gunners, they are also the high-risk areas that attract the most attention from the enemy. Many veterans with experience in fighting wars have a habit. That is, when you see the grass, you don't care if you see people or not. When you come up, you can first punch a shuttle or throw a few grenades into it. If you follow this style of play of the fighters, once the fighters launch a charge, this. The American snipers were afraid that they would die very unjustly at the hands of the volunteer soldiers after just one photo.
But I have to admit that this sniper of the US military will cause me a lot of trouble. With him, even if other U.S. troops jump out, I don't dare to shoot easily. Because there's a good chance he'll be able to tell where I'm from the sound of my gunshots, even if he can't tell where I am. It is also likely to know that our troops are not hiding in the opposite positions, but under their noses......
The reason why the US military did not hear our position from the sound of gunfire in the past was because the echo of the gunfire in the valley made it difficult for them to distinguish between them, but this is a different matter for snipers who have been trained in specialized 'doors'.
Although I don't know how the U.S. military trains snipers. But I know that judging the enemy's position is an important 'subject' for snipers. Snipers on the battlefield often confront each other for a long time because they don't know each other's individual positions. Until one side can't hold its breath or shoots at a fake target and *** the position, and finally lets the other party kill with one hit.
Therefore, it is very important for a sniper to be able to accurately judge the enemy's position from the sound of gunfire, fire, and smoke when the opponent fires, and if he can't even do this, then he is no different from an ordinary soldier on the battlefield.
At other times, it doesn't matter if he knows where we are, and I'll fight him to the death in marksmanship, but now we're in a minefield, and we could be blown to pieces by the enemy at any moment.
Then I only have two, and I have to choose, either I don't shoot, and as soon as I shoot, I must kill this sniper first, otherwise the soldiers of Huang Sihu's squad and I will face the danger of annihilation.
Then it quickly occurred to me that the volunteer soldiers lurking behind me did not know the existence of this American sniper, and even if I did not shoot, the soldiers would "alert" the American sniper after finding a suitable target.
So the two options became***One, I had to kill this sniper before he found out where we were hiding. With murderous intentions, I immediately wanted to adjust the muzzle of the gun to the American sniper, but then I was helpless to find that my rifle had passed through the small hole in the enemy's barbed wire, and I couldn't rotate that much at such a large angle. Of course, I could 'draw' the rifle back and then pierce it through a small hole from another angle, but if I did, my movements would be large enough to catch the attention of an average soldier, let alone a sniper.
How to prepare?
When a U.S. soldier emboldened himself and crawled out of a trench in an attempt to drag a body back, I realized that my time was running out.
Sure enough, after the U.S. soldier successfully dragged back a corpse, it was like reassuring other U.S. troops, and two U.S. soldiers soon followed suit.
What to do?
The soldiers were all behind me, and they probably couldn't see the movements of the American troops in front of me from their positions, so they didn't shoot. But I know what will happen next, as more and more bodies are dragged back, the more bold the Americans will become, and they will surely think that our snipers have already retreated with heavy casualties in the fire just now, and then their fear will become more and more relaxed, and finally they will return to their machine gun positions.
At that time, it was the moment when the fighters opened fire",
What to do?
I asked myself again, and that's when I realized that I had made a big mistake. The moment I pulled my rifle out of the barbed wire, it seemed that I could not turn my rifle to aim at the enemy snipers, but could only watch the danger 'press' towards me and the soldiers. And I have a gun in my hand. But it's like a burning stick......
Wait a minute!
Then I suddenly remembered my waist, "Then I visually measured the distance between me and the enemy sniper as fast as I could, a short distance, more than 40 meters, just within the range of 'shooting'.
Sniper years with a few drums of a mountain of pistols. It may seem ridiculous to think about it, but I chose to do it, and the difficulty in front of me was that I had to reach under the nose of an enemy sniper, reaching for my waist... Pull.
I didn't have time to think about it and immediately started moving my right hand slowly. What might seem like a simple move is now very difficult. Because I know very well in my heart that if I am a little careless, or if I move a little more, I will collapse a little snow on my body. Even a little bit will alert the enemy and 'shoot' a bullet that ends my life.
Fortunately, my right hand was bent over the trigger part of the rifle, not far from the waist pistol, which made it possible for me to complete this action.
Closer, closer" I bent my wrist with all my might, and finally touched the holster of the pistol, I gently picked the snap button on the holster with my little finger, and then grabbed the pistol again and slowly retracted the hand"
Note: The snap button direction of the holster is bottom-up, and the purpose of this design is to shorten the time to draw the gun while the snap button can be set aside while doing the gun drawing action
I didn't dare to go too fast or too slow, because by this time I found that more and more American troops had joined the ranks of the corpses, and even some American troops had already crawled towards the machine gun position. At this time, there was a sudden "Bang! A gunshot rang out. The sound of this gunshot directly slowed my heart beat half a beat, and the American troops in front of me stopped all movements in an instant, and all of them raised their guns and looked around. Looking at the sniper in the bushes in front of him, the muzzle of the black 'hole' moved slightly, but quickly regained stability.
OK! I secretly said to myself that I was lucky. The three squads that had just fired were the farthest away from us, and their positions were at least four or five hundred meters away from us, and the sound of gunfire there echoed through the valley so many times that the enemy snipers could not accurately distinguish its position.
So I settled down and continued my painful journey.
Finally, after a few minutes, I successfully 'drawn' the pistol, and then I couldn't help but shout again that there are two kinds of luck, "There are two kinds of black 'color' and silver 'color', and I noticed that the one in my hand is sharp.
"Bang!"
As I slowly stretched my pistol outwards to aim at the bush, a crisp shot rang out from behind me, and an American GI fell in response. I secretly said that it was bad, and sure enough, I saw the muzzle of the gun shake violently, and quickly changed its angle to aim down the inclined plane, and then quickly searched in front of the position.
The angle became more and more until the muzzle of the black 'hole' 'hole' was aimed at my head......
I'm sure he's found me. Because that muzzle has stopped.
I was only forty meters away from him, and for him with a scope, it was not difficult to find what I had in my hand... Pull. After all, for a sniper, there is still a gap between silver and white 'color' and white 'color'.
So, I had to shoot! Otherwise, all that awaits me is death!
And at this point my hand was not even straightened, and at that moment I almost didn't even have the courage to shoot. I felt the breath of death. I could almost imagine the next second, a bullet with heat would come out of the muzzle of that black 'hole' and then mercilessly pierce my skull and take my life. Even the part of my head that was aimed at still felt numb and itchy......
At this last moment, the scene of Li Guoqiang throwing the box cannon at the enemy suddenly appeared in my mind. So I unconsciously put the... When one of them was thrown horizontally, a bullet flew into the bushes with a "bang" sound.
The next thing. I just had to close my eyes and wait for the referee to go to heaven, because I knew very well that I didn't have a chance to shoot a second shot. But after waiting for a long time, there was no movement from the gun. The muzzle of the black 'hole' and 'hole' was still aimed at me like that, no shots were fired, and no movement was made. Although by this time I was 80% sure that I had won. But the muzzle of the gun still gave birth to a cold fear in my heart.
Finally, I was completely relieved when I saw a pool of blood slowly flowing down the slope out of the bushes.
***! I swear that if I can go back alive this time, I must learn how to play box guns from Li Guoqiang. This When the box cannon comes to fight, and in the sniper duel, the opponent is used to death at close range, I'm afraid I'm still the first! At least I haven't heard of anyone doing that.
"Bang!" A gunshot once again brought my mind back to reality.
This is one of the benefits of lurking, which generally means death when we are distracted during battle, but this is not the case in latent combat, when we lie motionless in front of the enemy's position and "play dead". Sometimes distraction can make us pretend to be more like.
When he came back to his senses, he turned his head to look at the machine gun position, and found that those American soldiers had already escaped and there were no left, and the corpses had also been removed by them, leaving only a few pools of black and red bruises. Maybe they realized that if they stayed on the top of the mountain, they would undoubtedly be our target again!
But that's fine, because of me today. I don't want to kill anymore! , the enemy 'wants' to know what is going on, please land on the orange . More chapters, support for authors. Support genuine reading! Day 08 Shanshu sneered at the umbrella
