Chapter 55: The So-called Hardship (II)
In just half an hour's effort, Gu Weisu had already led Lu Xin to find five or six spare firing positions on the mountain peak on the south side of the entrance to the Emperor Valley. Looking up at the dark clouds in the sky that were thick again, Gu Weisu thought for a moment, and then sat down under a rock that could more or less shelter the wind and rain.
Reaching out and taking out a bag of field rations that looked flat and abnormally flat from the bag of living items on his waist, Gu Weisu raised his hand and threw the field rations into the hand of Lu Xin, who was sitting diagonally opposite him: "Have you seen this?" ”
Quickly reaching out and grabbing the field rations thrown over by Gu Weisu, Lu Xin nodded hurriedly: "The domestic field self-heating individual rations seem to be better than what I ate when I was a soldier...... Improved? ”
Closing his eyes slightly, Gu Weisu whispered, "Eat enough!" At the same time, act as a guard and let me sleep for two hours! ”
Opening his mouth towards Gu Weisu, Lu Xin saw that Gu Weisu had closed his eyes, and his breathing began to become a little heavy, so he immediately closed his mouth obediently and fiddled with the self-heating individual rations in his hand intently.
With the help of the rain falling from the sky, after only a few minutes, the self-heating rations were already starting to emit a strong smell of food. After eating the self-heating rations and drinking a few more sips of the water he had brought with him, Rusin rolled over and lay down on the hard rock, holding the Winchester Defender shotgun in his hand, and watched the movement at the entrance of the valley with a blazing eye.
The rain began to increase in intensity, and the raindrops that hit the rocks beside Rusin were splashing in all directions, and every now and then Rusin's eyes were smehered. And because of the shelter of the rain, the entrance to the valley, which could barely be seen clearly, is now shrouded in a soft veil, making it impossible to see it at all.
Rubbing his eyes vigorously, Lu Xin looked back at Gu Weisu who was taking a break with his eyes closed with some hesitation: "Old comrade...... Old comrade ......"
Without opening his eyes at all, Gu Weisu seemed to know what Lu Xin was thinking, and slowly responded in a low voice: "The tree is dead, and the person is alive!" ”
Nodding understandingly, Rusin grabbed the Winchester defender shotgun beside him and stood up suddenly: "Then I'll go to the preset position at that location in the stone pit to have a look, that place is relatively close to the entrance of the valley, and I should be able to see clearly." As soon as I found out about the situation, I immediately ......"
Slowly opening his eyes, Gu Weisu also stood up with the sniper rifle in his arms: "The duties of an observer are similar to those of a sentry, but there are also differences. What you need to pay attention to is the direction that I might be overlooking. ”
Seeing that Gu Weisu took the lead in walking to the preset position of the stone pit, Lu Xin hurriedly followed Gu Weisu's pace: "But I feel ...... There's nothing you can't see? You closed your eyes just now, but you know everything I want to say and what I have encountered? ”
A hint of pain flashed on his face, and Gu Weisu subconsciously reached out and touched the jagged scar on his neck that was covered by the collar: "Before...... I think so, I can see everything, anything...... You know! ”
Obviously, he heard the sore spot in Gu Weisu's voice, and Lu Xin cautiously spoke: "Old comrade...... Am I ...... What did you say wrong? ”
Without looking back at Lu Xin, who was following behind him, Gu Weisu whispered as if talking to himself: "That time...... It's also a similar environment, it doesn't rain, but the wind and sand are very strong. The previous information obtained only said that the other side had 30 to 35 armed escorts, escorting the target to a meeting. ”
"We ...... Arrived at the most suitable location for sniping targets very early. It was a cliff, condescending to the road that passed below it. Just like today, we have at least five preset positions, and we camouflaged those preset positions. We anticipated that the other side might have military-grade drones for aerial reconnaissance, so we did a good job of camouflage. ”
"The intelligence is relatively accurate. At the predetermined time, the target appeared. What could not match the intelligence was that the vehicle in which the target was riding was actually a military-grade bulletproof Humvee. ”
"We had to use a large-caliber sniper rifle to snipe the target who was sitting in a bulletproof Humvee. It's not difficult to snipe, after the 12.7 mm caliber bullet shattered the bulletproof glass, it almost broke the target in two, and I could see it clearly from the sight! ”
"But there was a problem with our evacuation...... The movement of a 12.7 mm anti-materiel sniper rifle is visible even to a blind person. The armed men escorting the target began to retaliate against us - two M252 81 mm caliber mortars, which fired at least fifty shells at us in one minute. The guns are also veterans, and the shells are almost blowing up on our heels! ”
"I know they must be relying on military-grade drones in the sky to feed back our position to the artillery. We won't be able to walk without knocking out the eyes of heaven......"
"I started aiming at the drone in the sky, and to be on the safe side, I asked my observer to make up the shot. I just want to shoot down that drone as fast as I can, and then we can evacuate safely! ”
"We both have the same goal in mind, and we ...... At least I don't think there will be approaching enemy fighters near our preset positions! ”
Subconsciously reached out again and touched the scar on his neck, a trace of irrepressible pain suddenly appeared on Gu Weisu's face: "But I was wrong...... My observer saw the three armed men approaching us before I did. He knocked me away as he killed them, ......"
"He got seven bullets! There were at least two of the bullets that were supposed to hit me......"
Turning his head suddenly, Gu Weisu looked at Lu Xin behind him who didn't dare to come out: "So...... Your eyes, be sure to look where I can't see! You have to ...... Take care of yourself! ”
Subconsciously nodded vigorously, Lu Xin hesitated for a moment, but sighed heavily: "Old comrade, what you just said...... Do your comrades-in-arms know? ”
Gu Weisu: "They know, but they never mention it!" ”
Reaching out and scratching his scalp, Rusin hesitated again and said, "Actually, I think...... Can you talk to your brother about the things that are fast and unhappy in your heart, maybe you can feel better? ”
Jumping into the stone pit where the shooting position had been preset, Gu Weisu lay down on the sniper position he had chosen: "Say it, I may feel better, they ...... Maybe it's going to be uncomfortable!
Rusin: "That...... Why are you telling me this, comrade? ”
After hesitating for a moment, Gu Weisu's fingers were firmly on the trigger guard, and the moment his eyes were aimed at the sight, he had already adjusted the rhythm of his breathing: "Before shooting, I have to calm my heart." I need a ...... Tree Hole! ”
With a bit of an appearance of understanding or not, Lu Xin also lay down in his preset position. looked sideways at Gu Weisu, who was lying not far away from him, and a strange feeling surged in Lu Xin's heart......
Seem...... Gu Weisu's coldness and detachment in front of people just didn't want people to see the sadness and loneliness that had soaked his whole person, and the kind of ...... that had to move forward Tough?
And this feeling is not recognized......
