Chapter 189: Rebellion (Part II)

The plan for the rebellion began, and with everyone's expectations, the squad set off, and several commanders in the division headquarters were praying. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info They are all anxiously waiting.

And the battle continued, in the afternoon tired Vasily came to the division headquarters, in addition to his own Mosin Nagant, he also held a German sniper rifle, it was the sniper rifle of the German sniper who killed several Soviet snipers, Vasily handed over the sniper rifle to several leaders to see, and at the same time reported this thrilling killing, it can be said that this is Vasily in Stalingrad The most dangerous one, and Brezhnev saw that Vasily was not so elated, so he quickly opened his mouth to reassure:" Comrade Vasily, this is a war, each of us has lost countless comrades-in-arms, but they died well, this time you can be regarded as avenging them, the battle is not over, you still have to continue to fight, you can rest assured that we will take credit for the dead commanders and fighters, their sacrifice will never be forgotten. ”

Brezhnev knew that Vasily could now be said to be a signboard of the Soviet army, and he was a combat hero whose name Stalin knew the name, this was the signboard of his own division, and this could not be stabbed, Brezhnev asked Anna to pour a cup of tea as he spoke.

And Vasily also hurriedly took the teacup, and at the same time thanked Brezhnev, and here Andrei also picked up the sniper rifle, which is a Mauser original custom 98K, with excellent performance and excellent production. This gun is made of high-quality walnut wood, equipped with a high-precision heavy barrel, equipped with a six-fold optical sight, and fires 7.92 mm pointed bullets, with very high accuracy within kilometers.

It's really a good gun, and at the same time there is a German military ID card on the table, but Andrei didn't go through it, although there is fiction under the city, but the Germans did send snipers to Stalingrad to counter the sniper tactics of the Soviet army, so to be able to use such a good sniper rifle This is definitely not an ordinary German sniper.

And Andrei said to Vasily: "Vasily, you also bring back this sniper rifle for Alyosha to use for our snipers, so that the Germans can taste their own bullets, but take good care of it, such a good gun will be put in the museum in the future!" ”

"Yes, Comrade Division Commander!" For Andrey, Vasily was full of respect, and at this time, a staff officer outside came to report that the Germans sent artillery observers and snipers to protect them, and there were fighters on the front who went to ambush and were killed by German snipers, what! Artillery observers and snipers, this pair is definitely the most hateful combination, the status of artillery observers, no matter from which point of view, is the most important game between the enemy and us on the entire battlefield. It is not difficult to see the importance of the position of the US artillery observer in the Korean battlefield from a passage evaluating the US artillery observer on the Korean battlefield:

"Personnel performing forward observation missions, whenever and wherever fire support is needed, must be sufficiently close to the enemy and observe its movements. These personnel are often the focus of the enemy's attention, endangering their own safety and sometimes even getting caught up in heated firefights. The artillery battalion observation post was shelled almost daily by enemy artillery and mortars, and from time to time it was subjected to small arms fire. Sometimes, a simple entry in the daily morning report, such as a statement such as "Observation Post 2 was shelled", gives a very elegant account of the fact that the position was being targeted and shelled by enemy forces. ”

So all the time the artillery observers were the priority targets to kill, not to mention the snipers, and Vasily's eyes looked at Andrei and then asked: "Division commander, please let us deal with the snipers of the Germans and find the artillery observers." ”

But who said that you have to be a sniper to deal with snipers, Andrei waved his hand and said: "We can use artillery against snipers, I want to let the Germans taste the power of snipers!" ”

Andrei then called the artillery regiment and prepared a mortar platoon with the best gunners to cooperate with the snipers on the high ground. Find out the German flies!

It was not easy to find the enemy's snipers, because the snipers would hide themselves well, and there were fortifications on the positions of the Germans, and it was very easy for snipers and artillery observers to hide.

The best way to deal with snipers is to bring in heavy artillery bombardment, and the shells will plow the ground until you dig through all the places where the sniper might be hiding.

But the problem is that the artillery of the Red Banner Siberian Volunteer Division is still too small, and the shells of German-made 50 mm mortars and 60 mm mortars cannot reach the effect of plowing, and a 155 mm shell has an absolute killing distance of 15 meters, that is to say, within this range, even if it is not concentrated by fragments, the earthquake will be shocked to death, and within 50 meters, it is the absolute killing range of fragments, and there can definitely be fragments on an object the size of a human body, and if it is an air explosion, basically there will be no living people within 100 meters.

Coupled with the fact that the enemy's snipers have fortifications to hide, there is no need to think about the Red Banner Siberian Volunteer Division plowing the enemy's snipers with shells.

If you want to use the artillery of the Red Banner Siberian Volunteer Division to attack the snipers, the only possibility is to find out the accurate hiding place of the snipers, and then at the same time let as many shells as possible accurately fall near the snipers, and exchange the density for power, so that it is possible to defeat the enemy's snipers, but the problem is that the Red Banner Siberian Volunteer Division cannot let dozens of shells fall into a small area at the same time, mortars are not good, and there are not enough shells for such a luxurious way of fighting.

In the final analysis, only by finding out the exact hiding place of the sniper can it be possible to shoot it out with artillery, and even if the sniper's hiding place is found, if the sniper is hiding in a bunker or inside a strong building, the small cannon of the Red Banner Siberian Volunteer Division will still not be able to hit.

Then again. If the guns of the Red Banner Siberian Volunteer Division are all 105-mm or 152-mm large-caliber howitzers. Then the Red Banner Siberian Volunteer Division does not have to let the snipers cooperate. The direct artillery bombardment has solved everything, and what else needs to be found there.

What kind of weapons are there to fight what kind of battles, the power is not enough to make up the quantity, the number is not accurate enough, although it is a small cannon, but it is better than no cannon.

The premise of everything is to find the enemy's snipers, especially the location of the enemy's snipers and artillery observers, and Shaikin is extremely attentive to finding snipers.

So, the artillery was divided into groups, and once the movement of the Germans was discovered, they directly hit the artillery fire, and the company commander Valennikov personally took the group and the sniper detachment leader Shaygin to act together, and they quietly entered the position before dawn.

But it was not found until dawn.

Shaikin's eyes hurt when he looked at it. In particular, although they were condescending, the Germans were also very careful about the heights, and in such conditions, it was difficult to find the enemy's snipers, and it was even more difficult for artillery observers.

Valennikov took the gunner who was an anti-sniper, and the old gunner next to him fiddled with a barrel in his hand and seven shells at his feet, waiting boredly to find the enemy sniper, even if he didn't find it directly, if he could find a general area.

The enemy did not attack. There has been no movement, and Shaikin and they are unable to do anything now. I'll have to wait and try to hit the enemy's snipers by the way.

When the time came in the morning, the sun was already relatively high, and the light would not shine directly into Shaikin's eyes, and the search work finally made some progress, and the observer who had been observing suddenly said loudly: "Captain, come and take a look, I think there is something wrong with that ring fortification." ”

Shaykin held up the binoculars and looked at the fortification that the observer had mentioned, the open ring fortification was supposed to be a machine-gun position, but after a shelling, the machine-gun position had been withdrawn, and nothing could be seen from the fortification.

After looking at it for a long time, Shaikin frowned and said: "There is nothing abnormal, well, no, there is an abnormality, this fortification does not seem to be made of soil, the mound of earth will slide down, the slope should be very large, this fortification, must have been built with wood or some components." ”

The observer nodded again and again: "That's right, that's right, the slope of the fortifications is small, there must be a mystery in it, it's not as simple as it seems, if it is a component, then you can build a shelter like an anti-artillery hole in the fortification, not afraid of shelling, it looks open, but it's actually a fortress or bunker or something like that, it's too suitable for snipers!" ”

Shaikin slapped his hand and said, "That's it, let's try it." ”

Seeing that there was a discovery, several people focused their attention, and Shaikin waved his hand at Valentnikov and said: "Comrade company commander, look, are you sure to hit the shell in?" ”

After a careful observation, Valentnikov said in a deep voice: "At a distance of 1,000 meters, if you have to shoot a shell into the inside of the ring fortification, it will be difficult, but you can try, we need to test fire a shell, just hit a nearby point, so as not to alarm the snipers." ”

Said to fight, because it must be extremely accurate, the gunner next to Valennikov did not fire as quickly this time, he first found a spot nearby, tested a shot, adjusted it in his heart, nodded and said: "Okay, I can fight, I can shoot three shots in a row to increase the probability of killing." ”

After Valentnikov took a deep breath, one of the gunners held the barrel of the gun with both hands, and he said to the other gunner: "Attention, when you release the shell, be fast, be steady, try not to touch the muzzle, now prepare, release!" ”

"Put!"

"Put!"

After the gunner lowered the shell, Valentnikov lowered the muzzle of the gun continuously, and then there was a shout, and after the three shells were quickly put into the fire, after about three seconds, the first shell and the second exploded in the ring fortifications at the same time, separated from each other for a second, and the third shell did not fall into the fortifications and exploded next to the fortifications.

After all, the human brain is not the computer of later generations, and it is impossible to control several shells to the ground and explode at once as accurately as a computer-controlled trajectory, but it is a miracle that Valentnikov and his gunners can control three shells to explode at almost a point in a period of 1.5 seconds.

Although the shells fell into the fortifications, it was unknown whether there were snipers in the fortifications, but Shaikin and the others soon found out.

When he saw two people running towards the ring fortification, Shaikin shouted in surprise: "There are people inside, there are snipers!" They were going to save people, and they hit! Company commander, you're amazing! ”

Valennikov didn't care about speaking, and after glancing at the two people who were running, he held the barrel of the cannon in one hand and the telescope in the other, and said sharply while staring: "Prepare to fire." ”

The gunner put the shell in the muzzle, and then Valentnikov suddenly said: "Release!" Two shots in a row, fast! ”

The gunner let go of the shell in his hand, and after waiting for the shell to shoot out, Valennikov also threw down the telescope, adjusted the vibrating displaced barrel slightly with both hands, and immediately said: "Release!" ”

God!

Valentikov: What a god they are!

When the two people trying to rescue had just run to the side of the ring fortification, the first shell fell, and it landed in front of one of them, blowing it up in the air, while the other person was about ten meters away from the shell landing point, and also fell down after it, and when the second shell also fell closely, it was actually useless, because the first shell had already solved the problem.

The person who was directly blown up by the shell was just a coincidence or he was too unlucky, Valentnikov couldn't have been aimed at someone, that couldn't be, but he could analyze the speed of the enemy's running, and hit directly according to the fortifications, anyway, those two people were going to the fortifications to save people, just wait for the rabbit, so, that unlucky guy was really unlucky, and he was directly blown up by the shell.

Two shots, five shells, at least three people should have been killed, and there may be a sniper among them and an artillery observer, this deal, it's worth it!

Shaikin didn't care about his joy, and immediately shouted: "Hurry up, hurry! The Germans are going to return fire, let's retreat! Evacuate! ”

With that, everyone packed up their things and immediately turned around and left along the trench, and sure enough, the shells of the German retaliation fell on the position after a while. But the sniper team had successfully retreated, and this round of sniper strikes made the Germans feel angry, that bastard! According to the German prisoners of war asked in the future, the Germans are also very atmospheric for the Soviet army to snipe with artillery, since the origin of sniper tactics, I have not heard that the sniper with a cannon to snipe, this sniper gun really smashed the Germans to a daze, so the German artillery observers suffered heavy losses, after all, you can save a life if you hide with a gun, but this shell is not so polite, if you don't die, you will blow up half your life!

And in the division headquarters, Brezhnev and Yanayev also admired, Andrei's brain is really useful, he actually came up with a way to use artillery to snipe, sniper artillery has not been in the thinking of the Soviet army, but Andrei didn't care, because didn't the volunteer army do it like this?

After this artillery fire, the Germans had no choice, and now that the war has been going on so far, they also know that Mamayev Gang is a hard bone, so they do not dare to attack this place that has left them countless shadows before the deployment is adjusted.

The next day, Pavlov returned safely, and everyone was very happy, and it seemed that there was hope for a rebellion.
