Chapter 598: Hat Terrier

Everyone was shocked by the gunfire, especially Jonathan, a thorough battlefield recruit, who shouted:

"Fack...... Enemy attack, concealment ......"

As he spoke, he fell to the ground like a sandbag, causing a rustling of dead leaves and low bushes underground.

Captain Jonathan moved fairly quickly and reacted sensitively. But the Pelican sailors lowered their heads of different colors at this time, and looked at the killed sailors in a daze with different colored eyes, as if they were surprised that a human life could disappear so easily.

"Get down, get down, get down......"

Seeing that the reaction of these American sailors was not as good as Jonathan's, Zhang Sixing and Hansen hurriedly dragged them directly to the ground. However, looking at the sailors who were stained with blood and brains on the ground, they reacted slowly like puppets.

Until another bullet flew, a sailor who was a little slower on the ground fell to the ground with only half a scream. And then there was a crisp sound of a rifle firing in the distance.

"Ah......h

One of the sailors who had just been lying on the ground suddenly stood up, threw away the Chuntian infantry in his hand, and ran backwards like crazy.

"Fake, damn coward, get down ......"

Captain Jonathan shouted straight at the throat, but the soldier was unmoved, and without any tactical evasion, he ran straight down the hill.

Seeing that he couldn't shout at his soldiers, the pale-faced Captain Jonathan looked at Zhang Sixing with an extremely confused look.

Needless to say, this is the reaction of most recruits, the first time they hear a gunshot, the first time they see a soldier whose comrades have been killed. No matter how well trained they were, many of the recruits were scared to pee their pants when they saw the corpse for the first time, when they were shelled for the first time.

This does not prevent them from growing up to become a warrior on the battlefield. But before that, they must have gone through this baptism of blood.

Looking at the pale-faced Captain Jonathan, Hansen muttered:

"The Japanese don't like deserters."

Before he could finish speaking, the soldier who was running rapidly down the hill in the forest fell to the ground as if he had tripped over, and then the sound of gunfire came from afar.

All this stimulation made the American sailors who followed Zhang Sixing, including Captain Jonathan, all turn pale.

"We're being watched by snipers, don't make a sound, don't look up, use this observation."

In front of Captain Jonathan, Zhang Sixing took out a round tube from his semi-rigid combat vest. There is no need to ask that this is a periscope sight glass, there is no better equipment in this case.

Jonathan looked at Zhang Sixing for some reason, and it wasn't until Hansen on the side also took out a periscope observation mirror from his combat vest that he remembered that he was also wearing the opponent's combat vest.

He frantically fumbled around his combat vest, and soon found the periscope scope fixed to the side of the vest. After taking it out, learn to pull it apart in the same way as Zhang Sixing, and then put it in front of you.

He was surprised to find that he could see the bush in front of him through the camera.

However, when you look out from here, you can't see where the hateful sniper is.

If it weren't for the fact that he knew where to hide a sniper, the valley in front of him would be so peaceful.

The mountain breeze softens here, and the warm afternoon sun basks the mountains that are still a little chilly after winter. It's like taking my son to the mountains to hunt on a leisurely afternoon.

But Jonarin knew that there was a ruthless sniper in front of him, and he was about to kill them all.

"I didn't see anything......"

Keep your voice as low as possible, Captain Jonarin said.

"Of course snipers don't spot it so easily."

Hansen, who was lying on the ground, also observing the front of him, answered a little lazily. This attitude of his made Captain Jonathan a little angry, and now his brother had abandoned his life here, but this guy in front of him ......

"Don't be angry, Chinese people live in such an environment every day. It's useless to have any emotions now, the most important thing is that we have to find a way to catch him. ”

Zhang Sixing's cold voice came, and it was only then that Captain Jonarin realized that his movements of lying on the ground holding the periscope observation scope seemed to have turned into a piece of dead wood, and he did not move.

"We ...... What are we going to do? ”

Captain Jonathan finally understood that he was a complete recruit on the land battlefield, and he had no idea what to do in such a situation.

"Captain Jonathan, as a naval officer, the subject of calling for naval artillery support should not be pulled down...... If not, look at the top of the hill that is almost up to the left in front of us, and if it were me, I would have set up an ambush there. ”

Hearing Zhang Shangxing's reminder, Captain Jonathan suddenly remembered that he was the commander of the Pelican. And this place has been cordoned off as a combat area, so it should not be difficult to call in artillery fire.

"Artillery fire...... Does it work for snipers? ”

As he spoke, he felt that he was not confident, and God knew if the artillery fire would be able to deal with the sniper.

If it weren't for Zhang Sixing's reminder, he wouldn't have a clue about dealing with snipers, and I believe his boss would also have no clue.

"Trust us, artillery coverage is the most useful, especially against the kind of snipers who have just fired and found their bearings."

Hansen, who was lying underground, replied in the most indifferent tone, but Captain Jonathan replied in a skeptical tone:

"But now that guy must be staring at us, so why is he going to shoot again?"

Hansen didn't answer this sentence, but Jonathan himself seemed to have thought of a way. He turned and commanded the sailors beside him:

"Take a steel helmet and a stick......

Even he thought he was smart, and said with a little excitement,

"Or a person who wants to see where he is, would be a better target to shoot."

"Still not, Captain Jonathan."

This time, Jonathan heard that Hansen's tone was a little mocking, and he was puzzled and even asked angrily.

"Because this is called a hat stalk on the battlefield in China, it is a method that anyone can think of, and it is so old that no one wants to use it."

At this time, Jonathan was speechless, and as a US Navy officer with good emotional intelligence, he thought about it for a while, and then thought of the reason. That is, in the battle of millions of people in China at this moment, such a scene must happen from time to time.

In fact, he guessed wrong, although China is fighting the War of Resistance against Japan at the moment, the two sides involved in the war have the characteristics of World War I more often in terms of tactical means. They simply don't realize how much sniper tactics will affect the war.

And the "hat terrier" is a scene that only happens in the paratrooper school, during the confrontation between the elite infantry and the Japanese Blue Army.

After thinking about this, Jonathan was a little dazed, and he couldn't help but look up at the sun, thinking that at night, the sniper would be even more difficult to catch.

"Attention, our chief is going to get the sniper's attention."

Hansen's whisper immediately made Captain Jonathan nervous.
