Chapter 183: Limited Cooperation, Iwai's Fury
In the end, the course of the war of resistance was contrary to what most foreign observers had expected at the beginning of the war, and Japan failed to bring China to its knees.
Moreover, the Nationalist Government sought to prove to the world that it was successfully and deeply pursuing a long-term defensive strategy and was thus containing and weakening the Japanese aggressors.
The national government needs help, so they have to pretend that they are completely worthy of help, and that they are capable of using it.
And in the United States, with the exception of wartime, until after World War I, national intelligence work was almost equal to zero.
During the war, due to the needs of the war, intelligence agencies were established; Once peace is restored, the intelligence agencies are reduced to the extreme, and the knowledge and experience that have been so hard earned are lost.
Therefore, as soon as the crisis came, the intelligence authorities had to start from scratch.
However, as the threat from Japan in the Pacific Ocean grew, Hitler's influence in Europe was on the rise, and the situation in Europe became more and more urgent, the team of the US intelligence agencies was gradually strengthened as the situation developed.
In a hurry, this was obviously far from enough, and it was difficult to carry out intelligence work not only on the Far East against the Japanese, but especially on some operations.
But Shen Chen doesn't care much about this, it's okay to have limited cooperation, anyway, it's to deal with the Japanese, and he can do it easily, and the difficulties are another matter.
As for what kind of shelter, Shen Chen was even more unimpressed. The foreign devils in Shanghai had to be imprisoned in concentration camps when the Pacific War broke out. It's hard to protect yourself, what are you talking about?
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Many people think that a sniper only needs to shoot accurately. Of course, there is nothing wrong with this statement in itself, but the complexity of the shooting training content may surprise people.
The trajectory of a firearm can be incorrected by rifling, gravity, and wind, so the rifle's gauge and gate can be adjusted to correct for these errors.
At the same time, the magnification and lens quality of the optical sniper scope will also produce shooting differences, and temperature differences and optical deflection phenomena can also cause related problems.
Therefore, snipers must conduct shooting training at different heights and distances in a variety of weather, temperature, day and night environments to help understand the performance and error of the firearm, and correct it to an acceptable range.
In addition, the movement rate of the dynamic target will vary depending on the walking, running, or vehicle taken, and the amount of preposition will vary depending on the distance between the target and the sniper, and the wind speed......
Distance, wind direction, wind speed, wind deflection, light direction, azimuth angle, etc., and even the method of breathing when shooting are all very particular.
Obviously, Chu Jiao was lucky and got the experience that would have cost countless bullets to obtain. In addition to the calm and tenacity of her character, as well as her intelligent and hard-working spirit, she still needs to be honed again, and she can already be regarded as a sniper.
For Shen Chen's praise and evaluation, Chu Jiao was excited and excited, because she was obsessed with the sudden explosion after the quiet, the unstoppable speed of the bullet, and the joy of overcoming herself after hitting the target.
"Have you ever tried to be alone for a week or more?" Shen Chen knew Chu Jiao's current flaws, so he asked her questions seriously.
"Snipers don't have to be loners. But in fact, if you can't live without the presence of other people in your daily life, snipers are definitely not your best choice. β
Although Chu Jiao successfully sniped the target, the sniper position, as well as the precautions for sniping, etc., were all taught to her by Shen Chen on the spot. And the performance at that time also made her feel that her personality had to be more calm.
"From today onwards, I'm going to self-confine, see no one, don't speak, and see how long I can last?" Chu Jiao raised her hand and said seriously.
Shen Chen waved his hand and said, "Patience and carefulness are not self-confinement. A sniper may crawl all day just to fire a shot, or he may stay still all day to avoid detection by the enemy. Know anyone who is new to fishing? β
Seeing Chu Jiao shaking his head, Shen Chen continued: "It is difficult for a beginner angler to leave the fishing line below the surface of the water for more than three minutes. Because, they always want to bring the hook up and take a look. β
Chu Jiao grinned and said, "Three minutes, I will definitely be able to persevere, that is, I am out of beginners." β
Shen Chen rolled his eyes and said, "After all the hard work, can you give up the task without firing a shot because the timing is not right?" Sometimes you only have a three-second chance of shooting at your target, and if you're daydreaming, eating, or something unrelated, you're failing. β
"So-" Shen Chen raised his voice and emphasized, "You must know your mission, your location and wait for the target to appear. Before you act, you must ask yourself: Are you afraid of cold or heat? Do you get angry easily? Anger can make you careless and do something unusual, and that's the worst thing. β
Chu Jiao blinked her eyes and said, "Okay, I'm generally not angry, and I'm not angry anymore." However, there is no guarantee that under special circumstances, you will be angry for a short time. β
Shen Chen smiled and said, "No one is a thoughtless wooden person, and it is impossible to be absolutely not angry. It's enough to try your best. β
"Ha, you can't do that." Chu Jiao stretched out her hand and pointed at Shen Chen, teasing and said, "No wonder it's so easy to speak!" β
"Not 100 percent of the way." Shen Chen corrected and said, "But it's really important. β
Chu Jiao thought so in her heart, but there was a different expression on her face, she suddenly remembered something again, leaned forward, and said, "What about the bonus?" Kill Akino's bonus! I'll have a share, too, bring it. With that, she stretched out her hand to Shen Chen and posed to ask for money.
Syllable! There was no money in his hand, but he was slapped by Shen Chen.
"Kill the Japanese ghost who haunts you and give you a high-five." Facing Chu Jiao's big round eyes, Shen Chen raised his palm and said with a smile: "Do you want to come again?" β
"Stingy." Chu Jiao rubbed her palms and said dissatisfiedly: "I killed both of them, so divide the money as soon as possible." β
"Money junkies." Shen Chen sneered, rolled his eyes, and said, "Half of the money is divided with you, and I am generous." β
Chu Jiao was not so greedy for money, but it was quite fun to quarrel with Shen Chen.
Gossip, the two had another discussion and teaching on sniper techniques, this time observing and shooting at night.
In the history of warfare, many examples of warfare were created with the help of night. Sometimes, the strengths and weaknesses of the warring sides are very different during the day and at night.
Objectively speaking, darkness at night is beneficial for snipers. The darkness makes it easy for snipers to conceal and achieve the suddenness of the attack.
But observing targets at night has a skill that ordinary people don't know.
Scientific experiments have proven that in a dark room, first observe a target. Then try to shift your gaze slightly to the left of the target, and you'll find that you can see more clearly than if you were looking at the object itself.
This is because the most sensitive areas of the human eye do not align with the normal field of view, which is known as the "principle of left strabismus".
In fact, the use of left-squint observation at night has been very popular among the special forces in later generations. Of course, the current army and soldiers still don't know anything about this.
Knowing the principle of left strabismus, the sniper should place his or her gaze on the left side of the target, offset by 10 degrees, in order to obtain a clearer image.
Under the guidance of Shen Chen, Chu Jiao practiced the left-squint observation method several times, and felt particularly fresh and interesting, and couldn't help but say with admiration: "I have read a lot of books, but I haven't heard of this principle. β
"Without further ado, I'll continue to teach you!" Shen Chen smiled and said, "Night combat is not only a good opportunity for snipers to destroy the enemy, but also a hidden killing opportunity. A sniper who has only been trained to snipe during the day will find nothing in a night fight and will not even survive......"
The core content of the study of night sniper operations is the study of the human eye, and all tactics and methods revolve around this core.
And night observation does have some unique tricks: in it, the sniper is observed in a low position as much as possible.
Because, even at night, the sky is much brighter than the ground, and the silhouette of the figure in the high place is reflected.
In addition, when the light appears, subconsciously close the eye that you aim at and look around with the eye that you don't aim.
As the human eye moves from a light environment to a dark environment at night, an adaptation process is required. If you look with both eyes, it will be difficult for a sniper to quickly lock on to the target if it is time to shoot.
And perhaps when the sight readjusts to the darkness of the night, the fighter will be lost.
The tips taught by Shen Chen are very simple, but very practical.
Chu Jiao also studied very seriously and devotedly. She is not a stupid person in the first place, and she has a modern education, has a knowledge base, and has a strong ability to understand and accept.
In the process of teaching and studying, Chu Jiao told Shen Chen about Ma Mingyu's request for explosives, and by the way, she also inquired about what the so-called big action was.
Shen Chen looked at Chu Jiao's expression of great curiosity, and said seriously: "I'm going to make a few big explosive packs, and then go to Jisfeier Road, throw them all into No. 76, and blow him up on his back." β
"Throwing explosive packs?" Chu Jiao felt that this was an idea, but she felt that it was not very reliable, "How far can you throw it with your hands?" Isn't that too simplistic? β
"The simpler the crude, the more effective." Shen Chen bent his right arm, patted it with his left hand, and said, "Look, I'm exercising every day, it's all muscles." Just throw it away, and one hundred and eighty meters will be no problem. β
Chu Jiao blinked her eyes and said suspiciously, "Are you kidding me?" One hundred and eighty meters, a grenade can't be thrown that far? β
"I'm no ordinary person." Shen Chen bent his arms again, made a toned look, got up and said, "Okay, I'll be here today, I have to go back to exercise!" β
Chu Jiao frowned slightly, and looked at Shen Chen suspiciously. It wasn't until Shen Chen couldn't help laughing that she suddenly realized, stretched out her finger and said, "I almost believed you bastard." You wait, tomorrow I'll make all the explosives into firecrackers. Listen to it, and I won't give it to you. β
Shen Chen didn't look back, he waved his hand casually, not taking away a single cloud.
As for what explosives are used as firecrackers, there is no need to think about it, there is no need to believe it, it is just child's play.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
There was a deathly silence in the room, and Iwai Tetsu looked at Sato with a blue face, glared in disbelief, and asked or blinked.
Hiroo Sato is the head of the Iwai Mansion's guards and security guards, as well as the protection of various important people. Dazong Cangming is naturally one of them.
Although Hiroo Sato is not a person who protects him, he is also responsible for what happened to Akira Ozong.
Hiroo Sato lowered his head and waited anxiously for the thunderstorm to come.
Yes, he was a little scared, afraid of the stubborn, suspicious boss in front of him.
He knew what an unpredictable character this boss had: cunning and insidious, cold and ruthless; even pity insects and moths when they are happy; Initiating a temper, a small mistake can kill someone.
What's more, what is happening now is not a trivial matter, and the origin of the great sect Kuraaki, so that Iwai should also be polite. Fortunately, Dazong is still in the hospital, and there may be a glimmer of life.
"Haha, this kind of thing can happen." Iwai Eiichi suddenly let out two ugly laughs like night owls, but there was no trace of a smile on his face, "What kind of rice bucket are you sending, it's useless." Sato, you, you're an idiot, the stupidest rice bucket in the world-"
The more he spoke, the louder Iwai's voice became, and in the end he was almost full of lust and hideous face, but unfortunately the Japanese curse words were too poor, far less profound than Chinese, turning it over and turning it over, just a few words, it was difficult to vent the resentment in his heart.
Hiroo Sato's face was blue for a while, white for a while, red for a while, and the colors changed. He raised his head and lowered it again, and he had the intention to defend a few words, but he couldn't say anything.
"Your Excellencyβ" Secretary Kubota waited for Iwai to pause, and said cautiously, "The top priority at the moment is to consider the countermeasures, we can use this matter to put pressure on the French Concession, so as to obtain greater benefits, and even ask for free entry into the Leasing Zone, and force all the anti-Japanese elements hiding in the French Concession to withdraw." β
It is a common tactic used by the Japanese to deliberately exaggerate the facts, make things difficult in every possible way, threaten to use force, and place all the blame on the other side, and finally force the other side to make further concessions. Kubota's idea is based on nature and habit, and it is understandable.
Iwai Eiichi slowly sat down in the chair, stroked his forehead, and was tired of scolding, it was time to think of a way. He pondered for a while, then raised his head and asked in a deep voice, "Sato, what about the materials for the on-site investigation, you go and call the special high school class and urge it." β
"Hello!" Hiroo Sato turned away as if he had been pardoned.
Iwai frowned and said slowly: "Judging from the preliminary situation, it was a master who assassinated the Great Sect Monarch, and he used long-range sniping. So, we won't get a lot of clues, and it will be very difficult to detect. β
Kubota thought for a moment and said, "There may be few direct clues, but there are other ways to solve the case, such as collusion and involvement. β
By arresting other anti-Japanese elements, through torture, and traitors, to obtain the murderer of this operation. Iwai understood what Kubota meant, and knew that this would require the cooperation of other secret service organizations, such as No. 76.
