Chapter 47: Before the Action
Of course, Chen Hong didn't know the difference between a sharpshooter and a sniper, and when he heard Shen Chen admit it, he was a little reluctant, and he thought it was modest.
"The district committee discussed and studied the current situation and made a preliminary decision to intensify efforts to develop local armed forces, such as district squadrons and village squads, so as to share the work of the guerrillas and liberate their hands and feet."
Chen Hong looked at Shen Chen, paused, and said with a smile: "Comrade Xiaochen, when the time comes, I will ask you to help train and improve the combat effectiveness of the local troops!" ”
Shen Chen nodded happily and said, "Don't dare to say anything else, I can still teach one or two about shooting." ”
Although Chen Hong really wanted Shen Chen to transfer from the guerrilla to the district squadron, it was not easy to say it too directly. Moreover, he will not necessarily be the leader of the district squadron.
Therefore, let's test it first, and then look at the future development, Chen Hong didn't continue to talk about it.
Seeing that Wei Chun'er hadn't cooked yet, Chen Hong also wanted to sit for a while, talk to Shen Chen more, and take the opportunity to enhance his feelings.
Chen Hong looked at the bullets and small files on the small kang table, not only looking for a topic, but also a little curious, and asked, "What are you doing here, do you still need to process and transform the bullets?" ”
Shen Chen picked up a bullet, rubbed it twice with his fingers, and said, "The bullet looks smooth, but some of them have burrs on it, especially the connection between the warhead and the cartridge case. Sharpen it off with a small file, the bullet is more rounded, and the shot is more accurate. ”
Not to mention that at that time, even a few decades later, special high-precision sniper bullets did not appear. Let's just say that this three-eight big cover, although the trajectory is straight and the shooting accuracy is very high, it is not a professional sniper rifle.
Therefore, in order to ensure high-precision sniping at a long distance, it is necessary to keep the firearm in the best condition and remove the small defects of the bullet as much as possible.
This may be superfluous in the eyes of others, and they would not have thought that even if it is a small problem, there will be a large gap after the bullet flies a few hundred meters.
Chen Hong picked up a bullet and touched it, feeling that Shen Chen's requirements were a little harsh, perhaps because of a woman's inherent carefulness, just like cleanliness.
Shen Chen saw that there was nothing to do, so he continued to process the bullets, and he was concentrating on his work.
Chen Hong watched Shen Chen's nimble fingers spin the bullet around, disposing of every little flaw that could be seen and felt like an embroidery, and then placed it lightly aside.
There is no roughness and frizziness of the mountain girl, her eyes blink occasionally, and her long eyelashes suddenly fan, and she looks as if she is reading silently with a book.
Chen Hong opened his mouth and did not speak again. I feel like I can't help interrupting others.
Shen Chen handled another bullet and put it aside, then looked up at Chen Hong, raised his eyebrows, and said, "There are other things, Secretary Chen." ”
"Nope." Chen Hong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Seeing that you are attentive and serious, I don't even dare to make a sound, for fear of disturbing you." ”
Shen Chen smiled and said, "That's not true. When I finally had some free time, I wanted to process more bullets. ”
Chen Hong got up and said, "Then I'll go first, if you need anything, you can go directly to the district committee to find me, or you can bring it up to Captain Zhao and Instructor Zhou." ”
Shen Chen nodded in agreement, got off the kang and stumbled his shoes, and sent them to the door.
……………
After lunch, Shen Chen went to the ancestral hall to find Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou.
Dumping the matter of interrogating the prisoners to others, about the situation of the enemy's stronghold, Shen Chen himself is not very clear!
When they arrived at the ancestral hall, the team members had just returned from training and had not yet eaten. Shen Chen saw Chang Chunling, so he told her that the rations had been sent to Wei Chun'er's house and asked her to go back to eat.
In the hut, Shen Chen found Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou. Lao Zhou is telling Zhao Tie about the report and the preliminary decision of the district committee.
Shen Chen entered the house and sat on the edge of the kang and listened silently.
Lao Zhou talked for a while, and felt that Shen Chen should have something, so he stopped, turned to Shen Chen, and said, "Big-Xiaochen, have you eaten?" ”
Shen Chen nodded and said, "The interrogation of the captives went well, what is the situation, I want to know." ”
Lao Zhou scratched his head and said, "What about the record, it's left in the district committee, and they still have to study and discuss." ”
Shen Chen stood up and said, "Then I'll go directly to the captives and let them say it again." ”
Zhao Tie stretched out his hand and pressed down, and said, "You sit down first." After a pause, he continued: "I can introduce you to the situation, and as for the captives, don't toss them. ”
Lao Zhou said: "Those guys are afraid that you will die of fear, so they call you the female king!" You, don't be so fierce in the future, it's easy to violate the prisoner policy. ”
Shen Chen snorted, sat down and said, "It makes sense for me to do this, you don't understand it at all." ”
"Hey, what's the point?" Zhao Tie knocked on the table with his fingers and said, "Then tell me, what is the reason for beating and scolding." ”
Shen Chen snorted and said: "First of all, they are hateful, they are traitors, helping devils to bully their compatriots, and they are innocent; Secondly, I am a woman, I don't pretend to be fierce, I don't shout in a rough voice, 'Shoot or kill', maybe they will think that it is easy to deal with, and they will have bad intentions; finally, these soft bones are afraid of coming hard, and it is very useful to scare them. ”
Lao Zhou blinked his eyes and said helplessly: "You girl, how many words do you say?" Really, you're quite capable of thinking about it. ”
"Look, it makes sense!" Shen Chen smiled proudly and said, "You can't refute it." ”
Lao Zhou scratched his head again, he was really said by Shen Chen, the reason was clear, he really had nothing to say.
Zhao Tie thought for a while, it was really like that.
Women, they will definitely make the enemy look down on them. Listening to the captives' confessions, they did not know that there were only three opponents, and one was a woman.
During the escort, the captives were also suppressed by Shen Chen's ferocity. Otherwise, who knows if there will be a revolt mentality?
After all, it is a prisoner of the puppet army who has done evil, and it is not a regular army after all, Zhao Tie feels that the reminder is right, but it is unpleasant to say it all the time.
Zhao Tie shook his head with a wry smile, shook off the topic, and said, "Since you want to understand the situation, I'll introduce it to you." ”
Shen Chen sat down and listened carefully to Zhao Tie's briefing.
Zuwang's enemy has a class of devils, nearly two hundred puppet troops. Because the common people ran back, the enemy did not catch any people to build too complete fortifications, but relying on the construction of villages and towns, it was still an impossible task.
Not to mention attacking fortifications, the current strength of the guerrillas is more than 40 people, and they are not even considering getting close to Zuwang. Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou wanted to put the outpost in Chen Village and expand the scope of vigilance, but they were just precautions.
"The enemy relied on Zuwang and sent people to plunder, mainly to capture the masses, grab grain and goods." Zhao Tie sighed, and finally said: "Moreover, some of the masses have been caught. It seems that the enemy is deliberately occupying Zuwang for a long time, using it as a nail in the wedge of the base area. ”
Lao Zhou nodded and said, "I made a suggestion to the district committee, and the guerrillas should be dispatched to Chencun and other places. Even if it can't protect the villagers, it will provide them with early warning, harass the enemy who is slow to move, and buy them time to retreat. ”
During the Anti-Japanese War, it was not uncommon for ordinary people who ran away to be caught by the enemy.
Neither the regular army nor the guerrillas have the strength to protect the common people, nor can they send too many troops to protect the common people.
Therefore, more often than not, it is to ventilate the news and help and organize the transfer of ordinary people. As for whether the transferred civilians can evade the enemy's search and capture, it is obviously beyond their ability.
It was a common thing for the masses to be caught by devils during the Anti-Japanese War, although Shen Chen felt sad in his heart, it was not something he could change, and even rescuing those masses was a very difficult thing.
Think about how much you can save the people in enemy-occupied areas, who are in dire straits.
Despite the sadness, people seem to be used to this kind of thing in that environment.
The battle continues, and when you can't do anything about others, the only option is to fight, blood for blood, life for life.
"I think the guerrillas were right to go out." Shen Chen thought for a while and said, "Although the training is not enough, there is still a chance for the puppet army." As for the devils, there are twelve or thirteen people in a class, and I have already killed a few of them, and there is not much left. ”
After a pause, Shen Chen continued: "If the enemy goes out to loot again, if there are few people, we can harass and attack, and even ambush them. ”
Zhao Tie looked at Shen Chen, smiled, and said, "Devil, I think I can only leave it to you to deal with." Their combat effectiveness, Lao Zhou and I are clear. Even if it's you, you have to be a hundred times more careful. ”
"That's right." Shen Chen smiled confidently and proudly, stretched out his hand and nodded at Zhao Tie, and said, "Pay enough attention to it, even if you have a little vision." Don't worry, a few little devils, I'll deal with them. Of course, in addition to the attention, I also have conditions. ”
Germany and the Soviet Union were the countries that gave enough attention to snipers in World War II, gave them autonomy in their operations, and created a staggering record.
Just look at the rankings of famous snipers to get a clear idea.
In the Soviet-Finnish War in 1939, the Soviet Union suffered a big loss from Finnish snipers and suffered huge casualties, so the Soviet army attached great importance to the study of sniper tactics and the training of snipers.
In 1939 alone, the Soviet Union produced more than 80,000 Moganasin sniper rifles. These snipers showed their skills in urban warfare in the Great Patriotic War, and a large number of masters such as Vasily emerged.
In addition to the brilliance of Soviet snipers in the Soviet-German war, the so-called elite Kwantung Army was also terrified when attacking the Northeast, and those survivors felt creepy every time they thought about it.
The German snipers, on the other hand, made the Allies truly realize their horror during the Normandy landings in 1944.
From the tall and dense bushes of Normandy to the rugged mountains of the Apennine Peninsula, the ghostly shadows of German snipers swing everywhere.
They hid in hidden corners and shot important targets such as officers, non-commissioned officers, observers, artillerymen, and heralds of the Allied landing. This caused the Allied forces to move unusually slowly, and caused a great deal of panic.
Despite the fact that the Allies continued to adopt new tactics to reduce the losses caused by the snipers, these invisible demons continued to harass the Allies.
It wasn't until the Third Reich crashed to the ground that the specter of the sniper of Nazi Germany completely disappeared from the European continent and became history forever.
On the other hand, although many soldiers have accurate marksmanship, they basically do not have other qualities and requirements for snipers.
And if the sniper is only more accurate than the marksmanship, and the distance of the shot, there will be no thrilling stories that will be passed down to future generations.
Outwitting is the most important thing.
"Need one or two helpers-" Zhao Tie bowed slightly, looked at Lao Zhou, got an affirmative expression, and said: "This can be promised, you can tell me the specific conditions." ”
Shen Chen pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "The conditions are not strict." After basic training, the body is strong, and can carry and run. It would be even better if you were familiar with the terrain of the area. ”
Lao Zhou smiled: "Tell me your reasons." ”
Shen Chen said as a matter of course: "Needless to say, basic training and physical strength, who would want to be burdensome and sick?" If you can carry it on your back, you have to carry it on your back at a critical time, for example, if I am injured, he can carry me on my back, and maybe I have to run a few miles on my back to prevent the devil from catching it! ”
Zhao Tie laughed and said to Lao Zhou: "How about that Dahong, listen to him, the pig who used to rush to the market didn't take a rest with a pig." ”
Lao Zhou nodded playfully and said, "Ask him to ask, is the pig big or small, how many catties are there?" ”
Shen Chen
Shen Chen rolled his eyes, just this ability, I won't be angry!
He took a few deep breaths and said, "Okay, call Da Hong over and let him run five miles on my back first, and if he can run, he will be qualified." Otherwise, call everyone in and let them try it one by one. I guess this can almost go to Chen Village, right? ”
"Hahahaha." Lao Zhou laughed, and Zhao Tie was helpless, shaking his head with a smile.
"Come on, quarrel with this girl, it's not like we're tied together." After laughing, Lao Zhou waved his hand and said, "Okay, this condition makes sense, I agreed." ”
Shen Chen smiled and said, "I still have a few suggestions, you can listen to them if you want to, and it doesn't matter if you don't want to listen to them." It all makes sense anyway, it's good for the partisans. ”
"Listen." Zhao Tie stretched out his hand and nodded at Shen Chen, and said, "It makes sense, and it's good for the guerrillas, can we still listen?" Can you talk well, don't keep putting people against the wall and not being able to turn around. ”
Lao Zhou said with a smile: "Then you can say it quickly, this stomach is hungry." ”
Shen Chen moved to the kang table, motioned for Zhao Tie to sit inside, took a piece of paper casually, and unceremoniously pulled the pen in Lao Zhou's hand, and wrote on the paper.
While writing, Shen Chen explained: "I found that this puppet army is very timid, and he is especially afraid of explosions. If there is a machine gun, give them a shuttle, it is estimated that they will also blow up the nest. Oh, let's start with this explosion......"
