Niu Lei's position was on the other side of the mountain, and he carefully cleared part of the snow from the right side of a large rock to create a narrow firing gap, and then cut some branches with a bayonet and stuck them in front of his battle position to cover up this unnatural gap.

Liu Shun's position was closer to the top of the mountain than the two of them, standing high and seeing far away, just looking down on the south side of the mountain bag, taking in everything due south.

Although the possibility of the devil appearing from due south is higher, it cannot be ruled out that the devil will appear from other directions, in addition to the safest due north, three people and three positions, the east, west, and south directions are all monitored, no matter where the devil appears, the monitoring of three people cannot be avoided.

After getting ready, Liu Shun turned on the walkie-talkie and whispered: "Big bird, big bird, the second group is in place, it's over." ”

Soon Captain Wang's voice came from the earphones: "Big Bird received, the enemy is expected to arrive in an hour, pay attention to vigilance, over." ”

"The second group understands, it's over." The second squad leader ended the call, and the three-person team officially entered the latent state.

For Liu Shun and Niu Lei, who have undergone relevant training, lurking is nothing at all, but for He Jun, who has no experience, lying motionless on the snow and constantly observing the warning direction is simply torture!

Lying on the snow is not a fun thing, even if the body is thickly dressed, the cool air still jumps up from under the body, and after a while, the whole person is cold to the bone.

He Jun tried his best to distract himself, so as not to always pay attention to the cold under him, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't achieve the goal of ignoring the cold.

looked at the time impatiently, it was only five minutes, and He Jun wailed in his heart.

In the earphones that had been kept quiet in the ears of the second squad leader, a voice sounded: "The sniper team is in position!" ”

Liu Shun looked at the time, 1:52 p.m.

At 1:55 a.m., he received another message that the machine gun crew was in position.

At two o'clock, the last of the first group was in place, and the eyes of the second squad leader swept between the nearby hills and the high ground, and the other groups were hiding in these places. The scattered four groups of people seemed to have woven an invisible net, waiting for the little devil to throw himself into the net.

The distribution range of the four groups is not large, and the distance between the farthest group and the second group is only two kilometers in a straight line. And it's not the rolling hills that are near the community. Rather, it is a small plain with relatively gentle terrain.

The reason why the ambush site was chosen here was that the terrain here was gentle - the more gentle the terrain, the more favorable it was for the devil's rapid march.

To put it bluntly, Captain Wang is betting on the route of the devil's march.

The small mountain bag ambushed by He Jun and others is a large earthen bag dozens of meters high; The ambush site of one group is a slope with a small slope; The sniper group was ambushed on a dirt bag deep in the dense woods; The position of the machine-gun group was at the bottom of a small hill pack not far to the west of the second group. As soon as Niu Lei turned his head, he could see where the machine gun team was.

The four groups could control an area of about one square kilometer, and if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't understand the devil's marching route, Captain Wang would never have scattered several groups.

It's also wrong, if the devils are still marching along the winding mountain road, it will be much easier to ambush, and once the two sides exchange fire, there will be more unlucky devil soldiers.

At 2:04, Captain Wang reported that the little devil was located about seven kilometers due south, and there was no news after that. I don't know where it stopped.

What followed was a long wait.

He Jun only lay on his stomach for a short time and couldn't stand it, and the body hidden under the cloak had to change his posture every short while, stretching and stretching his stiff body.

If it weren't for the cold, he would have fallen asleep on the ground.

He Jun spent more than 40 long minutes in great torment, and at 2:47, the second squad leader received a group of reports that the devil had been found.

At this time, no one in the four groups knew that the devil changed the route of the march, and instead of continuing along the road, he gave up the excess baggage. Bring only weapons and some provisions, take a straight line on the map, and march as fast as you can.

Although the devil was very tired after walking for several hours, the devil who was left to die and came back to life burst out to his full potential. Due to the sudden change of direction and acceleration of the devil.

The average snow thickness on the snowfield is close to 30 centimeters, and the average snow thickness is more than 50 centimeters in the leeward position.

Captain Wang had to cancel the original attack plan. Re-select the ambush location.

Because the noise of the helicopter was too strong, the plane could not land too close to the devils, so the four teams had to wait so long after entering their respective ambush points.

The ambush site of one group was the closest to the devils, and when the devils were found, the devils happened to come out of a forest in the south, and the distance between the two sides was less than three kilometers in a straight line.

The leader of the first squad did not act rashly, but waited patiently, and half an hour later, the loose line of devil soldiers passed by 800 meters away from a group of ambush points.

The devil's spearhead is five hundred meters away, and the distance from the nearest group of devils is less than three hundred meters in a straight line.

Without an optical sight, it would be difficult to hit the target even if you shoot a devil at a distance of 800 meters, but with the marksmanship of a squad leader, hitting a devil within 300 meters is almost a certainty.

But the first squad leader hesitated for a moment and finally gave up the opportunity.

If he shoots at this time, first, he will remind the devils to be careful of ambushes, and second, he can only kill a few devil soldiers at most, which is not cost-effective no matter how you look at it.

The squad leader really wanted to withdraw the lurking point and go around to the devil to ambush again, but if he climbed up the slope behind him, eighty percent of the position would be exposed, so he could only lie there honestly and do it in a hurry.

The devils continued to advance, and the lives of nearly a thousand devils were densely packed, gradually out of the range of firepower of a group.

At 3:16 p.m., a sniper's voice appeared on the radio: "The sniper team reports that the enemy has entered the effective firing range, over." ”

"Which gun has an effective range? 85 sniper or 81 bar? Captain Wang asked.

"85 sniper." The sniper replied.

"It's up to you to decide whether to fire or not." Captain Wang replied, "It's best to cooperate with the other groups." ”

"Understood." The sniper observed the direction of the devil's travel, "Machine gun group, how's the situation?" ”

"According to the direction of the devil's current travel, eighty percent of them will not be able to reach my ambush area." Mao Xueming said regretfully.

The sniper was stunned: "My shooting conditions here are not good, if I shoot now, I will have to retreat immediately if I kill a few devils." (To be continued.) )
