Chapter 281: I'm so sleepy
The cold afflicted almost everyone on this icy, rainy night.
In the heavy artillery positions of the Japanese, the soldiers in ambush were cowering in paratrooper pits, drowsy.
Because of the cold, all the soldiers took out raincoats to cover their heads tightly to preserve the heat emitted from their bodies.
Unfortunately, it is located in the south of the Yangtze River, and as long as the ground is dug down more than one meter, there will be a shallow water layer.
The soldiers, who could not move in this pit where they could only sit, had to half-crouch in the pit and try to get themselves out of the water under their feet without touching the raincoat above their heads.
Even better than them were the soldiers in the trenches. They also have anti-artillery holes, so at least they don't have to worry about rainwater infiltration.
Unfortunately, he could neither make a sound nor smoke, so he had to fall asleep in the relatively warm anti-artillery holes.
Even worse than them were the Japanese soldiers who had set up ambushes in the field. In order to avoid being discovered, they could not even dig in the hidden parts, so they had to put on raincoats and lie down on the wet grass in this cold night.
Fortunately, this is winter in Jiangnan, and the minimum is only one degree Celsius, and it is not so bad that it will drip into ice.
Even worse than them were Zhang Sixing and Han Sen, who had not yet rained when they quietly approached the Japanese heavy artillery unit, and at the moment they were only stiff in the cold close to zero.
"Giggle......
Zhang Sixing's teeth rattled uncontrollably, and he said to Han Sen, who was also shaking on the side,
"Don't sleep, sleep now and you'll be asleep."
"Sir, I'm sleepy, but if I shiver, I feel a little warmer."
"It's okay to shake, but you can't sleep, it's a command......"
Hansen, who was already frozen and couldn't control himself, subconsciously wanted to knock on his heels.
While supervising Hansen, Zhang Sixing looked at the table below. It was 2:30 a.m., and they had been soaking in the rain for hours. The heat on the body is almost completely dissipated, and if it is not in the hump water bag on the back, I am afraid that the water with salt and sugar will tremble even more.
With thirty minutes left, Zhang Sixing felt that it was time to act. Ignoring the sleepy Hansen next to him, Zhang Sixing let out a subtle whistle that the Japanese who were 300 meters away could not hear it.
In a moment, the sniper scouts arrived at him, helmets touching helmets. From above, it looks like a strangely shaped flower in full bloom.
"Follow me, infiltrate."
Although the original plan was to "turn on the lights" of the devil's heavy artillery position, at that time to attract Japanese soldiers who were in ambush around to attack.
Hopefully, Lu Feizhang and they have found a place for the Japanese army to ambush outside, as long as they ...... Right now...... Thinking in his heart, Zhang Sixing slowly crawled forward.
At the beginning of the battle, the shiver that was originally formed by the cold immediately disappeared, I don't know if it was the reason why he practiced when he was free or something else, anyway, when he was ready to fight, he didn't feel the cold, and his body was not stiff at all.
"Hansen, follow me, and you won't feel cold during the activity."
The eiderdown clothes soaked in ice water were a bit heavy, but certainly much lighter than the old cotton clothes. Of course, Zhang Sixing's so-called duck down is not just using the fluff of the duck's chest, but putting all the collected chicken feathers and duck feathers together and breaking them, and then ......
Thinking about what he didn't have, Hansen moved his limbs. It felt like a rusty folding knife in my limbs, and it took a lot of effort to move it.
Zhang Sixing beside him put his mouth to his ear,
"Hansen, listen to me, we are going to go to the devil's heavy artillery position now, you have to recover quickly, otherwise they will definitely be skewered on the bayonet as barbecue."
"Do your best, sir, I'll do my best......"
Hansen, with heavy eyelids, wanted to grin, but his eyes couldn't help but want to close.
At this moment, he was violently pressed by Zhang Sixing's neck and pressed him to the ground. Han Sen subconsciously wanted to struggle, Zhang Sixing whispered in his ear,
"Devil."
For a moment, the vigilance drove the drowsiness away without a trace, and Hansen lay on the ground and did not dare to move. Just try to keep your eyes wide as much as possible, trying to see from your eyelashes or the corners of your eyes where the devil in front of you is.
The back of his head was patted by Zhang Sixing,
"Don't be nervous, it's over......"
It's over, it's over, where the devil sentinels are, it's over...... Han Sen suspected in his heart that Zhang Sixing saw that he was dozing and choking on the cold, so he played a little trick.
I have the heart to complain a few sentences, but I feel that this "scare" is still quite effective. At least he didn't fall asleep, and the cold seemed to be gone.
There was a sound of rustling behind him, and when he turned his face and saw other sniper team members behind him, he didn't know when they followed.
The Japanese heavy artillery positions were quite tightly defended, probably with hexagonal trenches connecting the entire outer line of the artillery position. Heavy machine-gun bunkers were arranged around each corner, and it was impossible to see from a distance whether there were people on duty inside.
It was almost a standard bunker, but even Hansen found signs of excavation in the open space in the middle of the heavy artillery position.
What's the situation, more than a dozen of them are going to run into the ambush of devils? Isn't this looking for death, shouldn't it be Lu Feizhou who launched an attack on the Japanese who were in ambush outside.
Then the Japanese here were attracted by the movement outside, and then they infiltrated with a small group of their own and loaded each cannon with a time bomb. If necessary, get a heavy shell and put it next to it, and you will definitely blow up the heavy artillery.
So the question now is, what is the reason why Zhang Sixing led a small team of them to rush to the heavy artillery position with an ambush, which is really incomprehensible.
This made Hansen nervous, though, as they finally approached the trenches of the Japanese heavy artillery positions.
You can see from here, it's raining despite the cold. But the Japanese sentries were still doing their duty, and even the machine gunners in their machine-gun bunkers were not resting.
Or maybe they have some resting, but they still have enough soldiers on their toes.
If you find out......
Hansen's body couldn't help but tremble, this time it wasn't frozen, but he knew they were going to start a dangerous operation.
Just when he wanted to question in his heart, whether such an action was necessary or not. Seeing Zhang Sixing's upper body, which was originally slowly crawling, rose up like a cobra, with a flick of his hand,
"Poof"
More than ten meters away, a figure that had just swayed stopped at a stop. He made a "gurgling" sound in his throat, which the veterans could hear, it was the sound of a punctured lung, choking on blood.
In fact, Zhang Sixing was not sure in his heart, Gu Shoufu set a trap. He just felt that using siege artillery to attack the troops attacking at night was a very problematic choice.
According to his summary of his covert operations on the battlefield in Spain, the most important thing in this kind of attack is the state and psychological judgment of the opponent, which requires empathy.
If Lao Tzu is Gu Shoufu......
The opponent is an opponent who is good at night attack, so where can attacking himself affect his attack on Jinling City. Undoubtedly, heavy support firepower is the main target of the opponent.
