on the defensive positions on the periphery of the Eastern Front of Moscow.

"General Zhukov, last night the paratroopers of the Red Alert Empire landed near the small town of Kimir, not far away, and after capturing the crossroads near the town, they stopped their operations and built defensive positions on the spot, and had no intention of continuing the offensive."

On the position, a regimental commander of the front-line defense units of the Soviet Union reported to Zhukov, who came to inspect.

They were deep inside the trenches, connected by wells, tunnels, and other trenches, a place with a concealed lookout, camouflaged with rubble and weeds, and an open view from the outside.

Outside the defense line in the distance, a small town with hundreds of houses can be faintly seen, and under the telescope, you can see the simple defense line built by the soldiers of the Red Alert Empire outside the town.

It seemed to be luring the Soviets to launch a counteroffensive and take out this daring lone paratrooper force.

"How many troops does the enemy have?" Zhukov put down the telescope in his hand and asked the people around him.

"There are two battalions of size, there are no tanks and armored vehicles, but you know the paratroopers of the Red Alert Empire, they are all equipped with a large number of anti-tank weapons, and in the battle last night, an armored battalion defending the intersection of the town was completely annihilated before it could react."

The regimental commander spoke: "From last night to now, I have sent three waves of scouts, but before they could get close to the town, they were all killed by the snipers of the other side.

Although the opponent only has two battalions of troops, and it seems that there are no strong fortifications, the opponent's firepower is very clever, and the defense points are also very cleverly set, and our soldiers cannot get close at all. ”

A political commissar standing next to Zhukov also looked at it with a telescope, but he didn't seem to see anything in the town in the distance, and instinctively stood up.

The regiment commander, who had just finished speaking, hurriedly shouted: "Don't stand up......"

Before the regiment commander's words were finished, the whole head of the political commissar who had just emerged suddenly exploded, and blood and brains were scattered all over everyone.

"This is the other side's sniper, a terrible sniper." Facing the corpse, the regiment commander could only say helplessly.

Zhukov's face did not change, wiped off some of the blood that had been sprayed on his face, and asked, "How far is it from the town?" ”

"Eighteen hundred meters." The head of the regiment said.

"Yes, 1,800 meters, he showed his head in less than three seconds!" Zhukov pointed to the headless corpse on the side and said.

"Since the town was occupied yesterday, there have been more than a dozen careless soldiers, who have also been killed in this way, their snipers are very terrifying, a distance of one or two thousand meters, like one or two hundred meters, pointing where to hit, they have not missed." The head of the regiment said with some bitterness.

Such an enemy is the most frightening.

The strongest sniper of the USSR, in this period, let alone two thousand meters, even a thousand meters, it is impossible to hit the enemy.

After all, the sights of this era can't see that far at all, let alone aiming.

With the sights produced by the Soviets themselves, it is already remarkable to be able to see two or three hundred meters, and the sights of the Germans cannot see even one thousand meters.

At a distance, Soviet snipers had already been killed in seconds, not to mention confrontation.

Unless it is under the advantage of terrain, it is possible to have a chance to compete with the snipers of the Red Alert Empire, and in long-range sniping, the Soviets can be completely no opponent.

In the Red Police Corps, elite-level snipers can achieve a 30 percent success rate against targets at a distance of 3,500 meters.

At a distance of about two thousand meters, the success rate of the first sniper is extremely high.

In a situation like this confrontation between two positions, casually popping up your head is an act of looking for death.

On the battlefield, there are gunners everywhere, and no one knows how many eyes are aimed at each other, and those who show their heads are those who are impatient to live.

"The two paratrooper battalions on the other side are obviously targeting this crossroads, facing us so calmly, they are definitely not acting alone. What else have you found here? Zhukov said.

"There is another discovery, I don't know if the weight is important, according to the reconnaissance findings, the armbands of these paratroopers on the opposite side are painted with white tiger patterns." The regimental commander replied.

"Then it seems that there is nothing wrong, the third war zone of the Red Alert Empire uses the pattern of the Vermilion Bird, the badge of the second war zone is the white tiger, the first war zone uses the green dragon, and the badge of the fourth war zone is Xuanwu." Zhukov said.

"General Zhukov, what are those things you just said?" The head of the regiment was a little confused and asked curiously.

"That's the symbol of the four war zones of the Red Alert Empire, and I only learned the meaning of those badges from a Chinese, if it's the White Tiger badge, it's the second war zone." Zhukov briefly explained, and then said:

"The second theater of operations has arrived, and judging from the actions of the other side in front of them, perhaps those communication arteries around Moscow may have been controlled by the enemy, and I am afraid that there will be no more troops coming to Moscow to support."

"But why didn't they attack?" The head of the regiment asked with some confusion.

"The Red Alert Empire is different from us, they never fight meaningless battles, and now attacking the Red Alert Empire is not of any benefit at all, I believe that the current Red Alert Empire is not targeting Moscow, but trying to occupy all the cities and regions we have abandoned."

Speaking of this, the corners of Zhukov's mouth were a little bitter, and he said: "The four major theaters of the Red Police Empire are known as the main forces, which is indeed true, because the four major theaters are specialized in complex battles, don't look at the only two million sea, land and air forces, but after the four theaters, there are still a large number of logistics troops that are not counted, and there are also a large number of World War II troops responsible for rear security and transportation safety. ”

Zhukov was very envious of such a troop in his heart, he didn't have to think too much about it at all, except that war was rest, and apart from rest was war, he didn't need to think about other issues.

And under such a system, the rapid and continuous attack can always be guaranteed.

Of course, under this envy, Zhukov also knows very well that not every country's army is able to play like this.

From this, Zhukov also knew that the Soviet Union seemed to be unable to defeat the mere 500,000 troops in the third theater of the Red Alert Empire, because behind these 500,000 troops, a huge military system was supporting, and the number of people added up was not only the scale of these 500,000.

Having said all this, Zhukov had no intention of staying here, the corpses on the side had already been disposed of, and glancing at the town opposite, Zhukov suppressed the idea of attacking and left the trenches on this front.
