Chapter 353: Seizure
Three hours later, Shidorenko and Ivan returned to the south side of the road, but instead of returning to their original sniper positions, they found themselves a good position three kilometers from their original positions. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The sun at high latitudes is no longer hot at 19 o'clock, and the temperature in the forest is incomparable with that in the city, and it drops very quickly, and it is estimated that it will be more than ten degrees at most in a few hours. Ivan has long been accustomed to such an environment, which is common in the taiga forest of his hometown, and for Sidorenko, even in the cold winter of Siberia, he has to learn to spend the night in the wild without a fire, which is only trivial.
Because they were going to spend the night in this position, the two of them took some time to set it up, trying to make the position as comfortable as possible, at least to be able to block the dew that would generate in the middle of the night. Because they can't start a fire, snipers can generally only eat cold food in such situations, but Shidorenko's backpack still has some good things in it, which is an eye-opener for Ivan.
A tin can is a quick-opening type, after opening it there are two sealed thick plastic bags, one large and one small, pour some water into the can, take out the small pocket and rub it vigorously and put it into the can.
"Bring me some of your meat." Ivan handed Shidorenko a few cubes of meat, and saw that he also stuffed them into a can and wrapped them in a piece of rainproof cloth.
"The little play of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, automatic heating, can't be wasted."
This is the Ministry of the Interior's logistics trial production of field self-heating cans, which is currently out of print, because the trial production has been suspended, and not much has been produced, basically given to several special units of the Ministry of the Interior. The cost is too high, the process is too complicated, although it is only to heat the food in the can, but the heat can not be wasted, if the seal can be heated to close to 98 degrees, but Shidorenko thinks that the heat at such a high temperature is wasted, so the soil method is used.
After ten minutes, a big meal is completed, and there is "no village in front and no store in the back", and the two can have a dinner with relative confidence. The heating bag was taken out and buried, and the hot soup with meat pieces "boiled" in the can, and the beef stew with potatoes in the food bag was also torn open and poured into the can. The staple food is brown bread, take out the spoon Ivan eats it first, looking at his good appetite, it obviously tastes okay.
Snipers don't need to bring some plates and jars, and they have to observe their surroundings when eating. Being able to eat something hot in the wild is a luxury for a sniper, "The Ministry of Internal Affairs is the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and everything is the best." ”
There was a stream 200 meters away, and there was not much water left for the two, so Ivan cautiously went over and took two pots, and when he came back, he put a water purification pill in the kettle, which could kill the microorganisms inside. Handed it to Shidorenko, shook it and took a sip, the stream water with the water purification pill tasted a little strange, but it was guaranteed not to spoil the stomach, which was very important in the wild. This is also a special treatment for snipers, ordinary troops do not have this pill - ordinary troops can at least make fires and boil water, which is more comfortable than Sydorenko.
While he could still see clearly, Shidorenko recorded the course of the day's operation and the results of the battle in his notebook: Ivan killed ten Finnish soldiers with an assault rifle, and killed 15 targets himself, including four officers, one of whom was a colonel, and the other was probably of a higher rank.
Although there is no evidence of the target killed, the results of the battle still have to be reported, although it is still unknown whether such a record will be admitted: Shidorenko does not pay much attention to the honor he can get, and now his identity lacks nothing, and the most important thing is to destroy the enemy.
The sky was dark, and the visibility in the woods plummeted, except for the slight sound of the night wind at the tops of the trees. The two of them did not say a word after disposing of the remnants of the meal, and quietly watched the situation around them.
But something broke the silence in the forest, the sound of footsteps from a man walking in the forest and stepping on a dead branch, appearing in the flank and back of the position. Shidorenko had determined that it was a single man, and that he was acting very tired, like a tired and frightened beast.
After slowly turning his body, in the twilight Shidorenko saw a figure that seemed to be coming in his direction. Shidorenko motioned to Ivan not to move: it was a lone target, most likely a member of the convoy that had been ambushed by the two men in the morning, the unlucky man who was still wandering around the woods, and the road was only 200 meters away from him.
It was not worth exposing this position for him if he did not approach or move, but the Finn was so good that he could not walk straight to the position where the two were hiding. With his hand off the rifle, Ivan drew the dagger from his waist.
Shidorenko noticed Ivan's movements and nodded slightly: If you come straight over, you will solve him! Ivan seemed to think of something again, placed the non-reflective dagger on the ground, and twisted his hands in a circular motion.
The Finn really lived to the end, and when he walked two meters to the two of them, he didn't notice anything unusual on the side - Ivan jumped up violently, grabbed the target's chin with his left hand before the target could react, and pulled his head violently with his right hand! With a slight cracking sound, the target didn't even have a chance to use the rifle in his hand, and slowly fell to the ground under Ivan's leaning.
The Finn's neck was broken, and Ivan obviously didn't want to get blood spilled, so instead of slashing the target's neck with a dagger, he used a more difficult action: the sniper school not only taught the staff how to shoot and hide, but also the skills of fighting and assassination, because that is also the ability that a sniper should master, but it is not a hard requirement, and Ivan is one of the best.
Shidorenko knew the observer's intentions when he saw Ivan's hands in a circular motion - that was fine, otherwise the smell of blood would force him to change places.
The Finnish logistician's eyes were still wide open in the faint light, and his mouth was not closed. Ivan placed him on the ground and closed the eyes of his enemies - snipers are not afraid to look into the eyes of their targets, but such situations are rare.
The subject's belongings were examined, a strange-looking rifle and accessories, as well as documents and several other bits and pieces. Shidorenko put the Finn's papers in his pocket and stuffed other personal belongings back into the pocket of the corpse, which contained a private photograph of the Finn. War is like this, silence will make life disappear, there will be no waves, and in the end everything will be silent.
Dragged into a distant pit and covered the corpse with fallen leaves, and the anomaly would not be visible from a distance. Sidorenko thought very well and sprinkled some anthelmintic medicine on the corpse - this thing not only repels insects, but also makes ordinary beasts sneer. If it is not worth exposing themselves because of a corpse, the two of them may have to wear it here for two days.
Back at the position, the Finns' weapon was on the ground, a peculiarly shaped short rifle, like a shortened Mosin-Nagan, which Ivan had never seen before. The bullet of the gun was also not the usual Type 1908 for the Finns, that is, it was useless for Sidorenko, but he put away the captured bayonet and scabbard.
Ivan had no objection to Sidorenko's movements, although he also liked the strangely shaped bayonet - it was short, like the length of a dagger, and the steel lacquered scabbard could be attached to a belt. The strangest thing is that this flat bayonet is foldable! It's not a "folding bayonet" like the standard AK47 assault rifle that Ivan has seen, but the blade can be folded into the hilt, and of course the blade is more than half long and the handle is exposed.
A glance at the rifle makes it clear what such a special design is for: when the bayonet is folded and carried, there is a slot at the bottom of the gun, and more than a third of the length of the bayonet blade part is stuck in the slot. The design is very reasonable, does not occupy the length and does not interfere with the carrying.
"The Italian M38 short carbine, caliber 7.65, rotten, but this folding bayonet is very distinctive, or new." Shidorenko knew the origin of this gun, it should be that Italy supported the Finnish military aid last year, because the performance was average, and only the second line troops of the Finns were equipped. It seems that the guy who was lying in the pit also liked this bayonet, it was almost brand new, completely unused, and very well maintained.
"Not blushing?" Shidorenko could see that Ivan also liked this little trophy.
Ivan shook his head.
Shidorenko's mouth grinned: "When I am an observer, there are such little things as long as they are the same first thing to hand in, not for me, Comrade Marshal likes it." ”
Ivan nodded: he knew that Vasily had this habit, and he also knew which marshal comrade had this little hobby. If you can get some small souvenirs for the deputy commander-in-chief, of course the comrades are willing, everyone understands the benefits of this, and they will definitely not suffer a loss -- a small collection can let the deputy commander know his existence, and there are not many people who have this road (don't be surprised that this habit of "giving gifts" is the same all over the world, and soldiers and officers from all countries have this habit, for example, American GIs like Luger, and there are many generals who like Japanese sabers during the Anti-Japanese War, and the generals' sabers captured by Li Yunlong were not immediately seized by the brigade commander. It's just a small hobby, but corruption and bribery are two different concepts. )。
The forests of the north are silent, but in this silence hides a deep murderous intent - and on the Western Front, thousands of kilometers away, the battle of blood and fire continues at night, and two of the world's largest land war machines are fighting each other with all their might!
