Chapter 257: Jumping Down from the Stage of Kiyomizuji Temple (9)
At this moment, another sound of Chinese "Zhongzheng" rifle fire was heard, and a cloud of blood appeared on the back of the machine gunner's head in the artillery mirror, and his head tilted and never moved again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Shimizu Pulse has not yet recovered from the tragedy of the soldiers throwing grenades and killing each other, and has to face the tragedy of the machine gunner being shot in the head by the opponent. He no longer cared about any "strategizing and winning a decisive victory thousands of miles away", so he rushed out of the artillery shelter like crazy, and jumped into the trench with a front hand. He rushed into the stable of Akagi Onsen in three steps and two steps, took out his black steed and galloped up in the direction of Kitayama - he admitted that his first combat operation as a commander to encircle and suppress a Chinese sniper was a failure-yes, although the Chinese sniper would never be able to escape, but the price paid by the Imperial Army was too great—so Qing Shui Pulse decided to go out himself, and he wanted to personally kill this hateful Chinese man!
Just as he rode his horse and whip down the main road to the north mountain, he suddenly heard a series of explosions at the top of the mountain, and he could hear that it was his own mortar and grenadier that were speaking again.
Hearing the explosion on the North Mountain, Qing Shui Pulse couldn't help but look up. As a sniper with a sharp eye, he can see in the distance, even on the back of a galloping horse. He was amazed to see that the soldiers on the top of the hill had all risen from behind their concealment, and some even raised their arms and cheered.
"Could it be that the artillery fire just now killed this sniper?" Qing Shui Pulse guessed that if this was the case, he could be called backward and controlled by others today - at the beginning, he was suppressed naked by the sniper in the spring pool of Akagi Hot Springs, and he didn't even have a chance to fight back. Finally, under the cover of artillery fire, he hid in the shelter and was about to fight back, but he wanted to try some "new anti-sniper tactics" he had researched, and instead of going out in person, he sent a group of pus to Beishan to die. When he wanted to take action to deal with the other party himself, this hateful sniper was neutralized by his own heavy firepower!
Every decision he made today was not the best choice, and it was half a beat slower than the reality of the situation - as far as a commander was concerned, the performance of Shimizu Pulse today was "failing", and as far as a sniper was concerned, he had no chance to shoot at all today.
Just today, Shimizu Pulse suffered his first major setback in the army, and it was the first time he had commanded a brigade. At this point, he was so discouraged on the black horse that he even began to wonder if he might be a lone sniper and not able to command an army of a few hundred men.
"No, I can do it, I can learn from this failure!" Qing Shui Pulse comforted himself, "As long as I am given time, I will become a good commander." ”
Qing Mizu was thinking about it, but he saw from afar that the soldiers on the summit of the North Mountain had already raised their guns, reopened the straggler line, and crossed the ridge to the northern slope of the mountain—there was no doubt that the Shina sniper had lost the ability to resist, or he was already dead, otherwise the soldiers would not have moved forward so confidently and boldly—he still missed this rare opportunity to compete with the Shina sniper after all, and he had no regrets in his heart.
The soldiers in charge of the guard vehicles at the foot of the North Mountain had already noticed the appearance of the Qing Shui Pulse, and when they saw that the person who came was a Zhongzuo officer with a higher rank than their captain, they flashed out of the hiding place, and the leader of the team Cao Chang just stepped forward and said: "Sir......" The black horse of the Qing Water Pulse had already bypassed them and ran to the north of the foot of the mountain. That Cao Chang was almost hit by Qing Shui's horse, which frightened him so much that he stumbled, and his mouth immediately muttered uncleanly, but he was helpless.
Qing Shui Pulse galloped to the north slope of the North Mountain, turned over and dismounted, grabbed a senior soldier and asked, "What about the gunner?" ”
The senior soldier hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Report to the sir, that person was hiding behind a big rock halfway up the mountainside, and was directly hit by our grenadier and blown to pieces!" As he spoke, he reached out to point the way for Qing Shui Pulse.
"This terrible enemy is still for us to kill!" Somehow, Qing Shui Pulse only felt empty in his heart, and even a little lost - yes, a sniper should not die under artillery fire, and the best fate for a sniper is to be killed by another sniper!
It's a pity that he missed the showdown today.
Qing Shui Pulse began to climb halfway up the mountain in three steps and two steps, he wanted to see who the spearman who had forced himself to hide in the hot spring pool was sacred. Is it a long three-headed and six-armed man, or has eaten a bear's heart and swallowed a leopard's gall?
Although the altitude of Beishan is not very high, it is very steep, and even a mountain warfare expert like Qing Shui Pulse has a hard time climbing up, and he can't help but open his mouth wide and breathe desperately. Suddenly, the smell of dust, gunsmoke, and blood filled his nostrils, irritated his nerves, and revived his soul - for him, this breath that could not be more familiar was the best smell in the world - this was the smell of the line of fire, and he should have been hiding in front of and behind the line of fire to snipe every high-value target of the enemy.
At this moment, Qing Shui Pulse's mood was relaxed, his remorse disappeared, his spirit was uplifted, and his steps were light. He climbed like an ape to a few large rocks surrounded by a group of soldiers halfway up the mountain, and the stone chips, blood stains, and stones blackened by gunsmoke all over the ground told the fierceness of the battle.
"Who of you is in charge here?" Qing Shui Pulse straightened his yellow tweed army coat and asked loudly.
"Report to the commander, Daisaku Kawamoto, the leader of the second squadron of the Akagi Brigade, has come to report!" A captain officer emerged from the crowd and saluted to the clear water pulse.
Qing Shui Pulse was stunned and then returned the salute: "Take a break, what about your big bamboo captain?" Didn't I ask him to lead the team himself? I saw him coming. ”
Kawamoto's eyes immediately turned red when he heard this: "Our captain is ...... He has just been shot and martyred! ”
Qing Shui Pulse didn't expect his premonition to come true, although he guessed the result, he still felt sorry for Otake Shaozo: "If you listen to me and find a safe place to command, won't it be fine?" But you didn't listen, you had to carry a saber, hang a binocular, and take a signal soldier to scurry around in the offensive formation, isn't this looking for death? It's no wonder that snipers don't target you when they don't target you! Although he was very dissatisfied with Dazhu in his heart, Qing Shui Pulse had to say in his face: "Dazhu-kun is good, thank you for avenging him!" Then Qing Shui asked, "What about the other losses?" ”
