Chapter 45: Night Attack (2)
Time passed in silence, and although the wind was cold and the rain was cold, every sniper waited patiently, and this little time was not enough to make them lose their patience. In front of the two towers of the Soviet makeshift camp, two sentries monitored the surroundings, while the other two sentries observed each other's situation at the other watchtower, which was set up to prevent sneak attacks.
Licorice was quietly kneeling beside a tree with a gun, and suddenly another lightning bolt struck the sky, "Ready!" "At the moment when this bright light appeared, Licorice's attention was unprecedentedly concentrated, drops of rain fell on Licorice's cheeks, and slowly dripped to the ground, and some rainwater droplets splashed on his eyes, but Licorice looked at it as if it was nothing, and quietly aimed at the target." Shoot! With this voice, a thunderclap sounded "Boom~~~" Licorice and John pulled the trigger without hesitation, and the two sentries on the two guard towers in the distance who were looking at each other were suddenly shot and fell down at the same time, in their field of vision, there was still all that the other person was shot and fell, they knew that there was an enemy coming to sneak attack, but they couldn't give any more warnings, while the other two sentries continued to look around the camp with a clear sense of taste. While the thunder had not yet disappeared, Licorice and John quickly pulled the bolt to reload and shoot again, and when the thunder disappeared, the other two sentries had already fallen to the ground, while the Soviets were unaware of the death of four of their own sentries, and the mission was successfully completed.
The only ones who knew all this, except for licorice and John, the two initiators, were the other snipers who were waiting quietly below, when they saw the four sentries on the sentry tower falling to the ground one after another without a sound, they couldn't help but admire it a little, although the basic people present could do this kind of thing, but it was rare to cooperate with sniping so easily and perfectly, under the leadership of several skilled snipers, the infiltration operation began.
These people who are responsible for the head are not only with guns, they are also good at using knives, and it is still okay to make a temporary cameo appearance in the special forces without a choice, and in the case that the sentries are all solved, they successfully touched the camp of the Soviet army, after all, no one would have thought that a group of snipers would give up long-range sniping and run over to play infiltration, not to mention that there are so many soldiers here, and how many snipers are there? The slightly relaxed commander did not deliberately arrange superfluous guards, he was now thinking more about how to repair the road before winter, but with the current weather, it seems that this idea has been lost, so the remaining option is how to repair the road as quickly as possible under the heavy snow.
A sniper at the head slowly touched in with the others behind him, and suddenly he raised his hand to signal the people behind him to stop, everyone was well-trained to find a place to hide in the shadows, motionless, no matter the wind and rain did not make the slightest sound, a team of soldiers in raincoats were patrolling in front of them slowly walked by, and from time to time they could still hear their dissatisfied voices, it seemed that the patrol task on a rainy day also made them feel uncomfortable.
After the patrol soldiers left, the sniper who took the lead quietly stretched out his head to observe for a while, confirming that there were no problems and began to feel in the camp again, they could only rely on themselves to find the possible storage warehouse in this camp, no one put forward the idea of catching a prisoner and asking for directions, not because they didn't understand Russian here, but because they were worried that it would cause some movement and cause everyone to be exposed, they were not professionals after all, and it was okay to make a temporary cameo, but to really think that they could do what a professional can do, There must be only a dead end, snipers must be calm, must be able to analyze what they can do, what they can't do, and clearly understand their abilities, and stupid people who can't recognize themselves are only dead ends, and they, after eliminating snipers who survived again and again, they are not stupid.
Finally, after groping for a while, the snipers who infiltrated finally found their target, a reserve warehouse, when they killed two guards and walked into the warehouse, they couldn't help but be a little disappointed, because the supplies were too small, not to say that the number was small, there were only fourteen of them, and how many could each of them bring even if they were not afraid of being exposed? The reason why I say that there are few types of materials is too small, there are only cold-proof clothes and raincoats, and a small amount of canned food, and there is no medicine and fuel, but I think about it, the Soviet army was attacked because of the oil area, and the roads here were cut off, and the oil has been cut off for almost five months, and even if there is oil, it should not be stored with clothes and other items, but will exist alone. But the lack of medicine is really disappointing for everyone, they are really in urgent need of medicine, not to mention the nearly twenty injuries lying in the stronghold in the mountains, just say themselves, today's thunderstorm night they ran over in the rain without any warmth to carry out such an action, after going back a serious illness is inevitable, now there is no medicine, everyone does not know how to heal their injuries in the future.
But at present, the most important task is to return to the base with the necessary supplies, there is no fuel and medicine, they are not short of food, bring some canned food, all the others bring coats, bring some more so that everyone can wrap in an extra layer, wrap everything in canvas to prevent it from getting wet by the rain, and by the way, bring some ammunition back, However, they are all 7.62 bullets used by Mosin rifles, and there are no 7.92 bullets that can be used by any German 98K, but think about it, the German defenders outside are basically killed when they run out of ammunition, how can it be possible for the Soviets to get how many bullets, without bullets, they naturally cannot issue the captured 98K rifles to the soldiers, so it is impossible to transport the bullets of this rifle from other places, this is a cycle.
After packing up all the supplies they could carry, the snipers who infiltrated began to retreat, but accidents inevitably happened, because they carried a lot of things, so their movements were no longer as fast and stealthy as before, and they were finally discovered when they were about to leave the enemy camp.
The Soviet patrol soldiers who found them did not act excessively, because the snipers were wearing Soviet clothes at this time, but they gathered so many people here late at night, and they were carrying large bags and small bags of things, which made these patrol soldiers very puzzled, according to military regulations, the patrol soldiers raised their guns at the snipers and asked them to put down what they were holding and raise their hands to surrender, and explain the reason for appearing here, or follow them to see the commander and so on, maybe some snipers understand Russian, However, they did not have any intention of surrendering, and two of the Russian-speaking snipers calmly conversed with the five-man patrol to stall for time and lower their vigilance.
The other sniper took advantage of their conversation to raise his hand and gesture covertly in the direction of Licorice and John, who were guarding outside, believing that Licorice and John must have discovered their situation here, and now is the time to need their support.
Sure enough, John quickly noticed all this, and saw the sniper's gesture, so after some exchange with licorice, the two assigned their targets, and then shot decisively. "Bang~~" In the silent night where there was only a dripping rain, two gunshots rang out, which immediately destroyed the original silence, and the two Soviet soldiers with guns who were a little farther away from the snipers were shot in the head and fell to the ground, the soldier who was communicating with the sniper and the other two soldiers with guns immediately reacted and wanted to shoot the enemy in front of them, but because they were already very close before, they had been rushed to the front by three skilled snipers and were knocked off the guns in their hands, Then they were either choked in the throat with a dagger or stabbed in the heart, and all three remaining members of the patrol died.
After the patrol was resolved, the fourteen snipers who had been exposed ran as fast as they could, while Licorice and John kept shooting and sniping at the soldiers who picked up their guns and ran out because they heard the gunshots, as well as the patrols that were coming quickly from other directions.
The fourteen snipers who infiltrated the battle were already very close to the outside, and now they ran faster regardless of whether they would be exposed, and after a while, they ran out of the barracks and into the mountains and forests, and Licorice and John continued to cover them, and a large group of shirtless Soviet soldiers in the rear yelled and chased after them without even wearing clothes and guns, Licorice felt really helpless, at this time he finally understood that people are different after all, they are cold here There are already nearly twenty sick people, what about people? I didn't even need clothes, and I yelled shirtless, "Ula!" "You can fight.
"Quick, let's withdraw too, there are too many enemies, we can't deal with it!" Licorice shouted anxiously, shooting as he retreated, and John also ran away decisively.
Although the snipers with supplies in front of them had a high load, they had run a lot in advance and were familiar with the terrain, and now the night was hazy, and the Soviets could not catch up with them in this terrain environment, so Licorice and John became the primary targets, because they were close.
Bullets continue to fly past licorice and John with a spiral wake "Huh~~~Huh~~", although relying on the familiarity of the terrain gradually narrowed the distance between the two sides, but now it is not as good as a month ago, when these Soviet soldiers would not fight in the mountains, and now a month has passed, even if it is a pig, let him run in the mountains for a month can be called a boar, although it is still a pig, but he is familiar with the environment a lot.
"Huh~~" Licorice seemed to feel something, but he couldn't react as he was running forward, a bullet hit his left calf, this time it was not as lucky as it was in Stoney, when the bullet grazed his leg and flew by, and now, Licorice can feel it, but the limitations of his physical fitness make him completely unable to dodge such an attack. Licorice was shot in the leg and quickly lost his balance and fell to the muddy ground, and slid forward for some distance due to the effect of inertia, not only covering his clothes with mud and stains, but also causing multiple contusions all over his body.
"How's the injury?" John ran forward some distance and quickly turned around and ran back when he found Licorice on the ground, half-crouching on the ground with a concerned expression.
"I got a shot in the leg, and I guess I can't run." Licorice tried to stand up in frustration, but she could only limp.
"I'll carry you, let's run quickly, there is a minefield ahead, although it is a little dangerous to discredit the past, but now I can't care so much." John said as he crouched down with his back to licorice.
"Okay, you have to be steady, our lives are up to you." Licorice didn't hesitate, and he couldn't help it at this time, and climbed directly onto John's back and said bitterly.
"I've never made a mistake." John said confidently, then quickly stood up and continued to flee for his life.
"That's because I helped you out!" Licorice retorted dissatisfiedly.
"Then don't die, or there will be no one in the end!" John jokingly replied, and then concentrated on running away, and Licorice stopped talking to distract John.
John ran all the way into the minefield with licorice on his back, and by the way, he helped licorice to tie the wound to prevent excessive blood loss, and when the pursuers behind stepped on the mine, the speed of the pursuit slowed down significantly, and John was able to observe the surrounding situation more carefully to avoid the mines they had laid before. Sure enough, as John had said before, he had never made a mistake, and when the two of them finally shook off all their pursuers and returned to the nearest stronghold, they could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
But the good times didn't last long, not long after, licorice began to have a fever and coma, although John also had some symptoms of fever and cough, but it was just an ordinary wind chill caused by the rain, licorice was not only a wind chill, he was shot and bled a lot before, and the wound was not treated in time, and now it is a symptom of some infection. John felt helpless, because there was no medicine in this stronghold, so he could only continue to brave the rain in the middle of the night to bring licorice to the stronghold in the cave, but there was still any medicine left in John's heart.
