The building was riddled with holes, but it didn't reduce the level of protection it provided to the defenders, but made it more suitable for the warriors to hide. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Broken masonry, broken furniture, half-collapsed windows, these are the best bunkers and concealments.

Vasily and Ludvik have become accustomed to the new way of fighting in the ruins of the city, and the whole city is now a big ruin, a new textbook urban sniper testing ground! In the previous few days of operations, Vasily rarely went to the patient to hide and wait, he only needed to sit by the window and wait, once the target appeared in the field of vision, it was definitely one shot at a time!

It was more convenient for the Germans to attack, with one or two firing ports taking turns and clearing out targets that the machine gunners could not take care of, the opposing machine gunners and commanders, who posed little threat to themselves. Now Vasily is defending a fixed target, which is different from the standard sniper of guerrilla, the firing position is very arbitrary, the corner of a building can become a position, and he can find an observation port under the premise of absolute safety, and he does not need to be exposed to compete with the opposing snipers for patience.

Pavlov was on the third floor, and he and several others had been closely monitoring him for four hours, and saw Vasily and the two walking up the stairs and handing over briefly.

"There's no movement, and the Germans probably don't want to come out." Cowering behind the outer wall, Pavlov took the German cigarette that Vasily handed him.

Under the dim light, the faces of several people are black and gray and difficult to distinguish, and they haven't bothered to wash their faces for the past few days, and they don't care after a long time. "Before dawn, the second company laid mines on the right side for an hour." Before going downstairs, Vasily explained and roughly circled the position of Bray.

Vasily couldn't see exactly how big the minefield was, anyway, his own people would not pass through that place, and the second company on the side would simply take advantage of the heavy snow to completely block it - this is fine, both sides are not worried.

It is estimated that the Germans on the opposite side will also take advantage of the heavy snow cloth city minefield, and those tripping mines and exposed mines built on the ruins can well block the passage, which is very important in urban warfare - whether it is defensive or offensive, just leave the necessary passage. Heavy snow works better because the opponent can't see anything!

Vasily and Ludvik each found a good position, replaced the old man, and sat on a stool made of bricks, with a cushion removed from the sofa on it: the defenders had not only used the building as a position, but more like a temporary home, and it was as comfortable as they could.

Ludwick's head was a window with half of the window frame missing, and a periscope made by hand from a broken mirror was placed on top of it, through which he could get a good view of what was going on outside. There were six of them in the periscope building, and all of them were from the third floor down - you can't be reckless in exposing your head when visibility is good, and the German snipers aren't idle snipers.

There were still holes in the battered exterior walls, half a man's height and only a little thumb - those small holes were the best viewing holes: no opponent could see if there was anyone behind the holes from hundreds of meters away.

Because both sides are hiding in bunkers as long as possible and do not come out, the most dangerous moment is when their respective personnel movements and orders are given, and the highest casualty rate is the herald!

Looking up at the sky outside, the snow was still blowing, and Vasily moved the cushion back by a few dozen centimeters - at the bottom of the outer wall there was a shooting port that he had made improvised yesterday: a gap the size of his head, and two bricks were cushioned from the inside to the outside, and there should be no flaws from the outside. While it was still snowing, Vasily carefully retrieved the brick slabs and covered them with a rag.

This is the firing port he prepared: the sofa cushion is on the floor, the position of the person lying is relatively backward, and the muzzle of the gun is on the inside of the wall, so that as long as the person moves left and right slightly, he can get a firing angle of nearly 60 degrees, while the German troops on the opposite side cannot see the situation behind the hole because of the difference in brightness between the inside and outside of the building - even guessing that there is someone behind, the effect of blind shooting is almost zero, not to mention that such holes are everywhere, many of them still do not penetrate, and they look the same from the outside.

If the Germans attacked, Vasily would immediately abandon this safe way and shoot rapidly from the window on his knees; Be on your stomach! Ludwik didn't use the German rifle either, and served as an observer as usual from three meters away - to hit this one, his observer's mission was "panorama", using a periscope, not a telescope.

Snipers on both sides are tried and tested, and telescopes for straight-line observation are not good unless they are in inconspicuous corners, such as the Pavlov Building. Anyway, Vasily has already changed to a zoom telescope, and the detailed observation will be left to the shooter, and Ludvik only needs to not let go of the German who appeared coldly.

After waiting for a while, feeling that his stomach was already functioning well, Vasily checked the rifle and, after making sure that it was fine, turned the rag up and fixed it in the crack in the wall. Take out your own gloves - this is a very special pair of gloves, Vasily made it himself: pure cotton, with only half of the first segment of the index finger of the right hand attached to it, so that it is usually covered with the cold, and the thumb will show the first index finger when shooting. Because the sensitivity of the index finger is very important for a sniper who is good at shooting from a distance: of course, it is best not to wear gloves, but when the weather is so cold, the fingers feel stiff when exposed for a long time, Vasily came up with a compromise.

If it is a close-range target, there is no need for that small action, and the very small error caused by force and feel is acceptable.

Lying on the couch cushion, the scope has been adjusted to eight times magnification, and the flying snowflakes are compressed by the visual distance like mist, through which you can vaguely see the buildings in the distance. Vasily trusted his observers, Ludvik would not miss a mouse in the open field!

Vasily was waiting for a brief moment when the snow was a little lighter - he couldn't effectively observe the Germans 500 meters away now, but when the snow was a little lighter, if a daredevil, he wouldn't miss it.

"It's normal in the open field."

Twenty minutes later, Ludvik's voice could be heard, and the snow began to lighten.

Diagonally opposite, steam was rising from several buildings in the distance, and it seemed that the Germans were making breakfast - Vasily had roughly targeted a four-story building 600 meters away, with another building diagonally in front of it, so that the Germans might subconsciously think that their position was relatively safe.

Five minutes later, a German soldier appeared in the window of the second floor in a daze, as if to see if the snow was lighter - and in an instant, Vasily pulled the trigger!

The room was filled with the sound of relatively muffled gunfire, and in less than a second, Vasily could clearly see that the Germans were all falling backwards and disappearing—he was finished, and the bullet had pierced his chest accurately.

The muzzle of the gun was slightly upward, and the rag was snapped down, and the whole hole was covered again. Vasily sat up, and after withdrawing from his shell, he took a bullet from his pocket and filled it in the magazine.

Will the Germans come up again, and this sudden single shot in the quiet morning is the most terrible: now even a fool knows that there is a famous and dangerous sniper lurking in the "Pavlov building".

Ludvik was still observing, everything was as calm as before, so he pulled down the periscope, "It's okay. ”

Two comrades dressed in civilian clothes entered Vasily's room with their waists bent, Gruchev and Palovin.

"How? Comrade Captain. Gruchev asked.

Vasily smiled: "A German soldier, in Building No. 3. ”

Everyone numbered the blocks, so it was easy to shout. For these two veterans who participated in the Civil War, Vasily is very respectful: in the defense some time ago, the two old comrades at a distance of 300 meters used the German rifles in their hands to shoot one at a time, and they can definitely be called sharpshooters!

At that time, because the ammunition was not very sufficient, some Red Army soldiers spent a lot of hard work to practice the basics, such as Gluchev and Palovin, and in the 40s they were still prejudiced against automatic weapons - a waste of ammunition, or a shot at a time (do not be surprised that there are such "weirdos", just think about the history of our Type 56 semi-automatic rifle). ）！

But now the percentage of soldiers who can use ordinary rifles is sharpshooters is not high, and people like Grouchev are always in the minority. Vasily was glad that with these two old sharpshooters in the building, he and Ludvik would be free.

"Let's go around the side." Vasily greeted Ludvik on the side and gave up his place to two old comrades - the two veterans were Vasily's replacements, and in the building Vasily and Ludvik had the privilege of deciding how to act: Pavlov understood that it was unreasonable to fix the position of the dead sniper.

Alyosha and Sasha are not privileged, because they are machine gun squads and must not be "out of their posts".

Vasily had already given his skills in urban sniping to the riflemen in the building, and the others had learned how to beware of the danger of snipers - there was a great way along the underground waterways: there were either blockages or mines on the Germans' side, but it was enough for Vasily to "go around" the neighborhood.

Vasily was not only a good sniper, but also a good teacher - historically he was known as the "old rabbit" of Stalingrad! Because he trained a large number of Red Army snipers called "Little Bunny", and these "Little Bunnies" taught by Vasily killed at least more than 3,000 German soldiers during the campaign!
