Chapter Fifty-Nine: Similar and Different Battles

The cold wind was howling, and the gloomy sky was only cascading and rushing gray clouds, and the dark ink color was like a layer of blood rust on a thin blade, like the blue halo at the corner of the mouth after insomnia, and there was a miserable sadness in the lowness.

After more than an hour of waiting, Shen Chen finally saw a few fires getting closer and closer on the other side of the river.

The enemy was both tired and gradually losing sufficient vigilance. They thought that their opponents were far away and that it was impossible to get ahead of them.

Of course, the enemy's guess should be considered accurate.

But they never expected that Shen Chen's team would go to Zuwang to reconnoiter and attack. The enemy will not know that there is a master like Shen Chen, who is preparing to let them die in the snow.

Shen Chen carefully observed with a telescope, and before acting, he still maintained his usual calmness and carefulness.

At first, there were several imperial allies, who were said to be the vanguard, but rather the cannon fodder of the thunder; Five or six devils walked in the middle, followed by the Imperial Allied Army carrying the wounded.

Do you want to play the same way you used to? Shen Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, quickly thinking, weighing, and judging.

Although the situation was similar, it was different, and Shen Chen had to think carefully and meticulously in order to recreate the battle of that day.

Because, the length of the bridge is not large is a problem. According to Shen Chen's estimate, if it is sniped from a distance, in terms of time, the devil may have the possibility of going off the bridge.

Once the devil can't be eliminated in a short period of time, the Imperial Alliance Army that spares the bridge will be a little troublesome. The Imperial Association Army was contained, and the devils were shooting, Shen Chen didn't want to face such a battle, and he was a little in a hurry.

After quickly observing his surroundings again, Shen Chen decided to adopt another way of playing. Some risky, but it should be the most effective.

Putting the rifle on the sniper position, Shen Chen took off the box cannon on his body, assembled it into a shoulder-fired weapon, and quickly advanced with his waist bent, coming to the back of a snow bag diagonally across the wooden bridge.

With the box cannon and shoulder shooting, Shen Chen can basically ensure the accuracy rate within 100 meters. The box gun has the advantage of being able to shoot continuously, but it can save a few seconds of time compared to the 38 big cover.

Don't underestimate a few seconds, the devil was attacked, reacted, and acted on the bridge, just a few seconds. If there was no time, Shen Chen would be sure to knock down all the devils on the bridge.

As long as the devil loses his combat effectiveness, Shen Chen can temporarily retreat and fight with the Imperial Alliance Army from a safe distance, and victory is almost certain.

The history of war teaches people that what is often a dangerous operation is also very likely to be safe; It's often easy to fail, but it turns out to be successful.

War sometimes requires risk, and the god of victory often tilts the scales of victory in favor of the adventurer.

Shen Chen lay behind the snow bag, almost blending in with the surroundings. He moved his fingers lightly, patiently waiting for the arrival of the enemy.

The enemy is getting closer and closer, unaware that death is at hand.

To say that the devil also has his own judgment, the snow on the road can be a good indication that except for them, they have not walked for a long time, unless they can step on the snow without a trace.

But they didn't expect that someone would not have crossed the bridge at all, and was sticking out the muzzle of a black hole in the opposite side.

A cold wind blew, and the snow on the ground was blown up and filled the air. The devil squad leader covered his mouth and nose with gloves to avoid inhaling the suffocating cold air with snow chips.

The Imperial Cooperative Army, which was walking in front, did not find any traces of people walking on the bridge, and they were more courageous and marched faster.

The leader of the devil's squad routinely held up his binoculars and looked, but he couldn't see any signs of danger, so he strode onto the wooden bridge.

Shen Chen turned the gun sideways, and he could take advantage of the muzzle jump of the box gun to make a small strafing shot.

Since the position he chose was diagonally opposite the bridge deck, it was possible to form a side-fired fire, and the efficiency of side-fired fire was greater than that of the front, which was very simple.

This is also the reason why machine guns are generally arranged on the flanks, which not only increases the efficiency of shooting, but also covers the charge of your own side without accidentally injuring the charging soldiers.

Da Da Da ...... Suddenly the sound of gunfire erupted in silence, and a dozen bullets flew out sideways, shooting at the enemy on the bridge.

The enemy was taken by surprise and was beaten on his back on the narrow bridge deck.

It worked very well, and this small strafing shot from the side knocked down four enemies, three devils, and one Imperial Army.

Shen Chen quickly put the gun up and put it on his shoulder, huh, bang, bang...... Shoot continuously at the remaining enemies on the bridge deck.

Shooting a box gun over the shoulder can indeed greatly improve the stability and accuracy of shooting. But the adaptation to recoil, as well as the rapid adjustment after shooting, is not something that ordinary people can do.

Shen Chen did not die against his shoulders and completely used his physical strength to resist the back seat of the gun, but shrank back slightly like a shock absorbing spring, and then exerted force forward, so that the gun returned to its original state.

Even aiming and shooting, Shen Chen maintained a speed of about one short shot per second, and the target was of course a devil.

Poof, poof, two muffled sounds of bullets burrowing into the flesh, and a devil opened his mouth wide, but he couldn't make a sound, and he fell down.

In the first round of bullet attacks, the devil squad leader was hit by a bullet in the arm, and the high-powered bullet almost destroyed one of his hands, and the gun also fell to the bridge.

He lay on the ground on the bridge, shouting, "Fight back, fight back—"

Thump! A corpse fell next to the devil's squad leader, and when he looked sideways, he found that it was an imperial soldier who had been killed.

Almost running out of twenty rounds of ammunition, Shen Chen rolled on the spot, jumped up, ran and leaped forward, along the calculated retreat route, with the help of the cover of obstacles, zigzagged towards the farther sniper position.

At this time, there were no more enemies on the bridge deck who could stand, and they were either killed or wounded. And several Imperial Cooperative troops who crossed the bridge, as well as the Imperial Cooperative Army behind the palace, rushed away from the wooden bridge one after another, each looking for concealment, and fired back indiscriminately.

A fish jumped and rolled, Shen Chen hid behind the snow ridge, and quickly crawled dozens of meters in a prostrate posture. Crouching up, he hid behind a tree again......

When Shen Chen flew up, rolled twice, and grabbed the rifle, his heart calmed down.

At this distance, the Imperial Allied Army was no longer a threat, and his sniper performance had just begun.

As for the devil, he is either dead or injured, even if there are still people who can shoot back, as long as Shen Chen hides well and snips quietly, he is not very afraid.

Therefore, Shen Chen did not rush to shoot, he lay on his stomach in the snow, calmly observing, looking for the enemy who was most likely to cause him trouble.

Across the wooden bridge, the enemy was split into two sections, and after a burst of fire, the enemy panicked, and now slowly stabilized again.

Judging by the sound of gunfire, it seems that the opponent has only one person, a box cannon. Although the fight was accurate, there was an advantage in numbers, and there were still undead devils who were crying out with wounds, and the Imperial Alliance Army did not collapse.

And with a rush of shooting, the enemy seemed to see a faint shadow running away and disappearing, thinking that the opponent had sneak attacked, and ran away, not daring to fight with so many people.

Slowly, more and more enemies were exposed from their hideouts. first probed his brain, and then dared to show half of his body.

The more daring the enemy was, the more Shen Chen sneered. He continued to remain silent, emboldening the enemy.

In the ghost howl of the devil squad leader, the two imperial allies trembled and approached the wooden bridge. There were no bullets coming, these two guys relaxed a little, caught up, and rescued the devil squad leader.

"Smack!" Suddenly a gunshot rang out, and a bullet flew in, splashing a bloody flower on the chest of the devil squad leader, and the guy looked down and went limp with his eyes like dead fish.

Shen Chen quickly pulled the bolt, pushed the bullet to load, shifted the muzzle, aimed, and fired.

"Smack!" The bullet rained down into the chest of an Imperial Confederate soldier, and he fell to the ground, blood and bubbles gushing out of his mouth, staining the snow red.

Gunshots, screams, and screams rang out again, and the enemy scrambled to find shelter again.

Shen Chen rolled on the spot with a gun in his hand and came to the back of a big tree. This is also the position he chose, the tree is very thick, the roots under the tree protrude, and the gap in the arch becomes an excellent shooting hole.

"Smack!" The gunshots rang out again, and an Imperial Concordant, who had just come down from the bridge, fell on his back as if he had been electrocuted.

"Smack!" Another Imperial Concordant fell down screaming, and although he was not dead, his feet slipped, and he fell from the bridge into the river at once.

The bridge deck was empty again, and the injured devil squad leader was killed, and the two rescued Imperial Cooperative Army were also killed.

Shen Chen stopped again, retracted his body, hid well, and changed the magazine.

After a flurry of gunfire, there was silence, but it was a silence full of murderous intent.

Hatred and fear spread like poison in the body of the enemy.

If it is an upright fight, it can be tolerated, but this kind of invisible enemy battle, the death of the nest, greatly dampens the morale of the enemy.

And Shen Chen's sniping was very purposeful, first the devil, and then the Imperial Cooperative Army who crossed the bridge.

Now, there are only three Imperial Allied troops left who have crossed the bridge. In the face of a sinister opponent who has no bullets, they are panicked and lose the ability and confidence to repel their opponents and meet their comrades on the shore.

And on the other side of the river, there were still a dozen or so enemies, and in addition to the wounded, there were seven or eight intact soldiers. But everyone knows that the wooden bridge is like a tightrope, the road to death, who dares to rush up?

The cold wind subsided, the snow and dust in the air also fell, and the surrounding area fell silent again.

The night was dark and as miserable as a funeral. The swing of the branches is like a demon waving his arms, as if he wants to choose someone to devour.

Shen Chen moved quietly, slowly and silently, sneaking towards the enemy.

Finally turning the angle, he saw the enemy's yellow-green clothes, stopped, and slowly stretched out his gun.

"Smack!" The gunfire rang out suddenly, and the Imperial Army, who thought it was well concealed and did not even dare to show its head, was hit in the right rib by a bullet fired obliquely, and fell down screaming.

Two left! Shen Chen put away his gun and hidden, motionless.

If there is a sniper in the middle of the enemy, don't fire two shots at the same position, or even change positions with one shot.

But what Shen Chen is facing now is only the Imperial Cooperative Army, and the enemy on the other side of the river may still have devils who can move, but at that distance, even he doesn't dare to hit lightly, so he is naturally not too afraid to worry.

Therefore, after Shen Chen turned his angle, the enemy on the other side of the river basically did not pose a threat, so he was full of confidence and began to concentrate on dealing with a few imperial alliance troops.

The remaining two Imperial Concordants realized that their opponents were moving, bypassing their concealment, and they couldn't help but be terrified.

In order to avoid shooting, they tried to find another place to hide, but they did not know where their opponents were approaching from.

Shen Chen did not continue to go around, but quietly hidden, blocking the wooden bridge at the best angle.

The two Imperial Allies, who only cared about hiding themselves well, could no longer pose a threat, and there were still a few enemies on the other side of the river. Although there are many people, will they be more bold?

Despite being a two-sided enemy, Shen Chen had a great advantage and had strong confidence.

If there were no devils, Shen Chen would dare to challenge dozens of Imperial Alliance troops alone, and he would be sure to drag them down in the constant movement, or even kill them one by one.

Slowly moving his position, Shen Chen leaned out the muzzle of the gun behind the snow bag, patiently waiting for the opportunity.

Excellent shooting skills are only the last and most basic of all sniping skills, and discipline and patience are the most important elements.

If you want to be a sniper, you have to ask yourself: Are you afraid of cold or heat? Do you get angry easily?

Anger can cause you to be careless and do something unusual, which is the worst thing.

Ever tried to be alone for a week, or even longer?

Snipers don't have to be a loner, but if you can't live without other people, Snipers aren't the best choice for you.

In this dull and maddening silence, only the occasional enemy fires at suspected targets. But this does not dispel the fear and panic of the enemy.

Just consume it like that? The enemy does not know how long it will last. Do you want to camp on the spot and wait for the gunmen on the other side to freeze to death, or let the cold go out of the way?

It's a short wooden bridge, but now it's an abyss separating life and death. The only two remaining wounded devils shouted angrily, trying to coerce the Imperial Allied Army to rush forward, avenge the dead comrades, and open the way back to the stronghold.

But the Imperial Allied Army no longer wants to die in vain, there are only two wounded, and the gun is not in his hand, I am afraid that he is afraid, but the guy on the opposite side is even more terrifying.

Therefore, the Imperial Association soldiers listened to the scolding, laughed perfunctory, and hid it very well, and no one moved the place.

Even so, the outcome of the battle was quickly sealed, and the enemy's hope of returning was becoming more and more dimmable, and it could even be said that it was desperate.

The team led by Cao Xiaobao and Yu Baogen rushed over and gave the two Imperial Allied Army the final blow from behind.

The gunfire was short, but not intense. The two Imperial Allied armies did not resist for long, and they did not have much will to fight.

Seeing that there were many enemies and were also flanked from the front and back, the two guys hastily fired a few shots, and after one was wounded and fell to the ground, the other fled in panic.

Even at night, the yellow-green object running in the snow couldn't escape Shen Chen's eyes, and a bullet flew quickly, and the Imperial Allied Army fell heavily with an expression of disbelief.
