Gunfire on the flanks of 672

Leaning against a wall, it was as if I could hear my own breathing. The girl from yesterday was still lingering in Chris's mind, and it annoyed him.

He vowed to fight for the Führer and defeat all enemies of Germany. But that beautiful face was reflected in his mind, and it couldn't be linked to the enemy at all.

The girl's eyes were open, and there was a hole in her head made by his 7.92 mm bullet.

He swallowed, then sorted out his weapon, chose a suitable spot, and poked his weapon out.

In street fighting, the chaotic defensive line prevents heavy firepower from being used, interspersed from uncertain corners, and also creates a complex engagement environment.

The enemy does not know where it will come from, it may be behind or from the side. Danger can be hidden in any ruin, and death can be with you at any time.

Therefore, the tactics adopted by the German troops were to advance in waves in batches, combing like a grate, and completely eliminating the possibility of Soviet infiltration in a roundabout way.

Moreover, in terms of local tactics, Germany implemented the latest squad-style campaign mode, based on infantry squads, to disrupt and destroy the living forces of the Soviet army.

Chris looked through his scope and saw into the distance, a wrecked building, with a burning Soviet light tank parked next to it.

A large number of T-26 tanks were concentrated in the city, causing a lot of trouble for the German infantry. The good news is that the German infantry platoon level units have Iron Fist rockets, and the bad news is that the German armored forces do not have half an idea of entering Smolensk.

In that narrow eyepiece, every plant and tree is very clear. The 4x sight provides a suitable viewing distance and also provides an adequate field of view.

Compared to the more specialized 8x scopes, the warring nations in World War II generally used three to four times more sniper sights.

This is because such equipment can provide a better field of view and will not be completely useless at close range.

Moreover, during World War II, the effective firing distance of sniper combat was generally about 800 meters, and the amplification efficiency of 4 times was already a very sufficient value.

On the one hand, the accuracy and range of the rifle itself do not allow for longer distance engagement, and on the other hand, the longer the firing, there are more hit factors that need to be referenced.

Modern sniper operations, especially long-range sniping, are actually not simply completed with one shot, but require complex preparations.

This is also why modern sniper units carry out their missions in small teams. Because you need to bring measurement equipment and be responsible for a wide range of lookouts, you need another person to do it.

Germany now also uses two-man sniper tactics because they have a good sniper teacher - the Führer from later generations.

It's just that it's a professional sniper tactical unit, and in infantry groups, snipers often act alone.

He waited cautiously, patiently, and boringly. Let the cannon rumble in the distance, and let the small insects around you sway and crawl by.

It was as if he had become one with everything around him, and he waited motionless, waiting for his target to appear.

Chances are, the enemy he's waiting for will never appear, or chances will be that in the next second, Soviet soldiers will pass by the rubble.

In fact, sniper tactics are very similar to submarine engagement at sea, many times you have to face boring waiting, and it is a rare case of good luck to achieve results.

The combat missions of snipers in actual combat are actually diverse. Shooting someone in the head is just one of many tasks.

Chris's current task is to block off the flanks of his attacking forces. The sound of his guns is the best hint for his troops.

There was a lot of turmoil on the battlefield, and Chris was faithful to his mission. He also has a comrade with a rifle on his back, who is responsible for taking care of a lot of things.

For example, ammunition boxes for several machine guns, and rockets with two Iron Fist rockets. In the same way, he is also guarding the rear of Chris, so that he does not threaten Chris from behind.

A Soviet steel helmet emerged from Chris's scope, on the other side of the reverse slope of the ruins.

The other party walked cautiously, revealing only the top of a steel helmet. It can be seen that the other party seems to want to bypass these ruins and go to the other side.

Chris didn't rush to fire, and if the other side just wanted to leave and go through this section of rubble to the other side, then he wouldn't shoot at these targets.

After all, a good sniper position is hard to find, and you can't afford to expose your position by firing at a target that is leaving the war zone.

He waited patiently, moving the muzzle of his gun little by little, letting the crosshair on his scope press against the steel helmet.

The other party apparently didn't realize that he was in danger, but just moved a little, and finally showed his face in a corner.

Immediately after that was his chest was exposed, as he stood up and began to move towards Chris's front.

What made Chris nervous was that the Soviet soldier was followed by another Soviet soldier, followed by the third and fourth.

This apparently was a detachment of Soviet infantry preparing for a detour behind the German assault force. Chris's job is to stop them and alert his teammates.

He did not hesitate, and pulled his trigger on the chest of the Soviet soldier who was walking in the front.

In World War II, the ammunition used in rifles was so powerful that a sniper didn't need to aim at his opponent's head and fire, he just needed to hit the target.

"Phew!" The gunfire rang out suddenly, and everyone in the Soviet army subconsciously shrank their necks. The Soviet soldier who was at the forefront fell in response, and the rest immediately fell to the ground.

In Chris's eyes, it was as if he had knocked down several enemies at once with one shot.

He pulled the bolt of his rifle and topped it with a new bullet. The bullet casings fell crisply to his side with the pull of the bolt, tumbling into a gap in the broken bricks.

"Phew!" As the opposing soldier looked up and tried to find his position, Chris fired a second shot.

This time the bullet pierced the head of the opposing soldier. Because this time the other party only showed his head.

At this time, the Soviet troops did not dare to move easily. Everyone was lying on the ground, and this tiny battlefield was silent in an instant.

Chris knew that his sniper had bought him the time he should have gained, and soon these Soviet infiltrations would be repulsed. 8)
