Scattered and crisp gunshots rang out on the Grass Chain Ridge at intervals. www.biquge.info In fact, the firing positions were dotted on the hills, some on the top of the mountain, some on the mountainside, and some even close to the valley bottom. And all of them took certain concealment measures, and if it were not for the flames that erupted from the muzzle of the guns at the time of firing, it would have been difficult to even find out where they were hiding.

Compared with the loud gunfire and smoke of gunfire from the main positions of the officers and soldiers, this kind of sporadic shooting seems to be of little power and can hardly attract the attention of the thieves. But almost every time a shot rang out, a thief fell. More than a dozen thieves on the East and West Ridges, who were relatively close to Caolian Ridge, bore the brunt of the attack, and they were all knocked down within a few seconds, and all of them were shot in the chest or in the head, killing them with one shot, and they didn't even have time to struggle.

At first, the thieves thought that these accomplices had been killed by the bird-gunners on the main position of the official army, because at the same time, the main position was also suppressing and shooting Liu Zhe's men. But after a while, the thieves who attacked head-on were beaten and retreated, and the main position of the officers and troops also stopped shooting, and the thieves on the ridge still fell down after a while, and the thieves realized that the situation was wrong. Besides, the range of the bird gun is generally only seventy or eighty paces, but some thieves are shot and killed even a hundred steps away from the grass chain ridge, which also makes the thieves feel inexplicable.

Gu Junen, who was in charge of commanding the attack on both flanks, quickly noticed that something was wrong, and wanted to ask his subordinates to withdraw first and observe what the situation was. But after thinking about it again, since the beginning of the fierce battle, Liu Zhe's men have suffered nearly 1,000 casualties, and they are responsible for the frontal attack, although it is unspeakably painful, but at least it makes Gao Yingxiang see it. And the casualties of his own men can't even catch up with a fraction of Liu Zhe's, if there are more than a dozen dead and wounded, he will retreat, and it is not easy to explain to Gao Yingxiang.

But just after he hesitated for a short while, more than a dozen thieves on the ridge were shot and fell. Looking back at this, Jun Enke could see clearly, it turned out that the officers and soldiers were using a gun with an extremely long range, hiding in a hidden place to shoot at his men. At this time, Gu Junen was taken aback, he had never seen a bird gun with such a long range. In fact, his memory is not good enough, and it was Suifa Lu Mi Gong who just injured Gao Yingxiang, but he patronized Gao Yingxiang at that time, and no one paid attention to what kind of weapon hit him.

This time, Gu Junen quickly made a decision: he must immediately withdraw his subordinates. Because although he doesn't know much about Lu Mi Gong, this thing hits far and accurately, and almost misses the shot, which is a fact in front of him. Originally, the tactics of the thieves were based on the consumption of ammunition from the officers and soldiers, but Gu Junen didn't know how many of these terrifying guns there were, and he wanted to continue fighting like this, and before the ammunition of the officers and soldiers was exhausted, tens of thousands of troops would be wiped out.

So the thieves on the ridge hurriedly withdrew, and it happened that Liu Zhe also returned with the defeated soldiers. As soon as the two of them combined, it was too passive to fight like this, so they came to Gao Yingxiang together.

At that time, Gao Yingxiang was resting in the military tent at the mouth of the valley because of the unbearable pain. The second general briefly introduced the battle situation, and Gu Junen said: "King Chuang, I didn't expect that the Northern Army also has a bird gun with a very long range, which can shoot more than 100 steps away. Now everyone is very afraid of this kind of bird, according to the last general's opinion, it is better to..."

"Why not as good as what?" Gao Yingxiang's eyes widened when he heard this, and said, "Isn't it your idea to consume the enemy's ammunition and let Zhang Er and Huang Long outflank them in a roundabout way?" Now that Zhang Er and Huang Long have set off, if we withdraw the army, won't the two of them and thousands of brothers go to death in vain? Besides, only more than 30 people were injured, what is there to be afraid of. Pass me..."

Before the words fell, he suddenly heard the sound of "horn", and a lead bullet broke through the tent and hit the head of a Gao Yingxiang's personal soldier. This person's head immediately burst, and red blood and white brains burst out, splashing Gao Yingxiang's face. In a hurry, Gu Junen and Liu Zhe thought that Gao Yingxiang had been shot, and they were so frightened that they exclaimed: "King Chuang... The king has returned to heaven! ”

Gao Yingxiang was the first to react, wiped his face with his left hand, and roared angrily: "What nonsense, Lao Tzu is not dead yet!" Quick, cover the king's retreat to the outside of the valley, and see if the enemy is coming! ”

Everyone was in a big mess, Gu Junen and others set up Gao Yingxiang with all hands and feet, and fled out of the valley in a panic. But the strange thing is that the officers and troops were still stuck in the halfway point of Caolianling and did not rush down the mountain. The location of the handsome tent is at least three hundred steps away from the Grass Chain Ridge, where did this shot come from?

However, the thieves did not dwell on this question for long, because the officers and soldiers quickly gave an answer. I only heard the crisp gunshots on the East and West Ridges from time to time, and every time the gunshot rang out, a thief fell in a pool of blood!

It turns out that the snipers of the official army are not just waiting for the rabbit. After the thieves were defeated from the ridge, the snipers quickly shifted their positions and quietly touched the past. The thieves were once again trapped in the U-shaped encirclement of the official army, and although there were only a dozen snipers on each side, the Lumi guns in their hands were a sharp weapon against a hundred. The shot that hit Gao Yingxiang's tent just now was fired by a sniper one hundred and fifty paces away.

This time, the snipers did not act alone, each sniper was accompanied by three infantrymen to form a sniper team. Two of them were specifically responsible for reloading ammunition, as the barrel of the Lumi Gun was much longer than that of the regular Bird Gun and it was more cumbersome to reload. In order to maintain the fire output, the two infantrymen also carried three bird guns on their backs, and the snipers immediately changed their guns after firing them, and switched to shooting at closer targets.

Another infantryman was on close guard, in case the remaining thieves on the ridge suddenly pounced. This was a precautionary measure, in fact, all the rogues who could move had already run away, and the rest were hit by lead bullets. Even if they hadn't been hit, the horrific damage caused by the lead bullet would have caused them to die of blood loss.

These snipers are all sharpshooters in a thousand, and long-range sniping is no problem, but now that they are much closer to the thieves, they are even more handy. Don't look at the small number of people, only half a meal effort, more than a hundred enemies were killed. And the thieves at the bottom of the valley were completely stunned, and they were in a swarm, and they couldn't even figure out where the guns came from.

In the end, the sniper team really didn't have time to reload, and they were not greedy for merit, and immediately withdrew to Caolianling, without a single casualty. Snipers don't know it now, of course, but as the first large-scale use of sniper tactics, today's battle was later written into military school textbooks. They only knew that they had fought too happily today, no less than participating in a gluttonous feast!
