Chapter 600: Headmaster
"It's been a long time, Headmaster......"
Behind a Haruta rifle equipped with a six-fold hunting wide field of view scope, Higashikawa Yohei's young face appeared. His eagle-like gaze pierced through the scope, firmly locked on to the bushes where the Headmaster and the Americans were hiding.
Suddenly, a figure appeared, and to his astonishment, he only took two steps to his feet, and immediately rolled towards the bushes.
The muzzle of the gun moved slightly, and Higashikawa Yohei immediately hugged the fire.
"Phew"
The recoil of the Springfield rifle was much greater than that of the 38 rifle and was transmitted to his shoulder, and he cursed in his heart:
Sure enough, this kind of full-power bullet is only suitable for the bear-like physique of the Americans, and we Orientals still have a bit of a lot of recoil when we use it.
At the same time, he was also disappointed to see that the bullet grazed the edge of Zhang Guoxing's tumbling body and fell to the ground, stirring up fallen leaves and branches.
After firing a shot, Higashikawa knew he had failed. And this is all from Zhang Sixing's teachings:
"When the enemy lures you into shooting with a helmet or any action, a good sniper should know that he doesn't have many options. Either leave or change to a different sniper position. My advice is to leave, because if you encounter the Germans, you will be covered with artillery fire. ”
Slowly moving his body backwards, Higashikawa slid backwards down his "sniper table" with minimal movements.
The so-called sniper table is a way to allow him to get out of the other party's observation as quickly as possible, and the slightly higher "sniper station" will provide cover for his subsequent actions.
When he was sure that his body was no longer visible, Higashikawa Yoshi's body lying on the ground suddenly moved quickly to the nearby rocks.
"Boom ......"
Two heavy cannon shots rang out from the sea in the distance.
This time, Higashikawa simply ran, and as he approached the hideout he had prepared, the fish jumped up.
The shells landed, with a heavy explosion in the distance, and a black column of smoke rose for the first time in the Alaskan mountain forest.
"Thank you, Headmaster, your training saved my life again."
Quickly put on the suit that was used for camouflage, covered in mud and fixed with vines. Then he found a backpack in the corner of the hideout, and Higashikawa quickly took out a clean hunting suit from the backpack and changed it into.
This suit was the equipment of the Japanese naval gunner, who used himself to move in the mountains, leaving traces all the way to lead Zhang Sixing and them to the ambush point.
At that time, Higashikawa Yohei announced that he wanted everyone to bring back to Japan the news that the U.S. Navy was equipped with Apple machines, and he was the last to leave. He chose a gunner who was similar to his body to follow.
Then here he disposed of the naval gunner, and as a hunter, he knew the importance of bait. Then he wanted to give Zhang Sixing a fatal blow here.
Little did he know, however, that the crosswinds in the valley interfered with his shooting, causing the bullet that should have hit a U.S. Navy sailor.
And then......
Why did the principal let me go?
According to his understanding of Zhang Sixing, he will definitely not only use artillery fire to hit his sniper platform, but also use continuous artillery fire to drive himself to the sea. When you get there, the situation will be even more unfavorable for you, and it will be more difficult to escape the world and underground pursuers.
Although he was confident that if he only encountered a few American sailors, or even a genuine American army, he would have a chance to break through the encirclement.
But in that case, the principal only needs to use a large number of American troops to firmly encircle it, and he does not dare to shoot and hunt, or he will be caught in a few days.
Lo and behold, even the way I could think of it, the principal would only do better.
He subconsciously looked towards the sea, and of course he couldn't see the sea where he was. But in such good visibility weather, he could see the strange-looking balloon at sea.
To deal with snipers, it only takes a few balloons to constantly monitor the mountains and forests, and there is no place to hide.
But why did the principal let me go?
With the level of Higashikawa Yohei, of course, he couldn't imagine why Zhang Sixing, a person familiar with war history, would let him go. Not to mention that the confrontation between the United States and Japan will become more intense because of the news he brought back and the subsequent cooperation between Zhang Sixing and the US government.
And these will contribute to the early outbreak of the Pacific War.
If you can't figure it out, you don't want to, the most important thing at the moment is to get out of danger and bring the news back to Japan.
A moment later, Higashikawa Yohei appeared on the forest path of Alaska with the most leisurely steps as a hunting suit, carrying a shotgun bullet belt and carrying a Springfield rifle with a hunting scope.
At the moment he did not head towards the sea, where it must have become no longer safe. And the blockade of the US Coast Guard will definitely also carry out a focused search near the coast.
Therefore, Higashikawa Yohei turned around, and he had to go inland first. Then, with the dollars on his body and the good wilderness survival training he received at the German paratrooper school, he drove along the mountain to the Bering Strait, and then found a remote fishing port and hired another fishing boat.
At that time, he only sanitized the sailors on the fishing boat, and he could slowly return to Japan.
In the next few days, Zhang Sixing and his entourage cooperated with the US Alaska Coast Guard to search the nearby mountains and forests, and the Japanese naval gunners who temporarily participated in the operation did not have this training. They were either shot dead or captured by the Alaska Coast Guard and turned into prisoners of war.
It is worth mentioning that what hit Ye Na's head at that time was not shrapnel, but just a stone inspired by the explosion. Although Ye Na was not seriously injured, she fell into a coma and never woke up.
Fortunately, this is the United States, and she is well cared for in the U.S. Coast Guard's military hospital. As for how to wake her up, I am afraid that it will require treatment in New York or a big city in Washington, D.C., to have a chance of recovery.
Because of this, Captain Jonathan took them back to the headquarters of the Alaska Coast Guard.
On the coast here, Zhang Sixing saw only a few old destroyers parked in the harbor of Nuoda. He thought to himself:
"I don't know if it's these old guys who got the Philippines for the British."
This happened when the Anglo-French forces were defeated by the Germans on the European land, and then the British carried out the "Generator Plan", and when they needed a large number of resources from the Americas and Australia, they needed a large number of frigates.
And the Yankees, who have always had a vision, exchanged fifty old destroyers for the British colonies in the Pacific Ocean that they had operated for many years.
Of course, from another point of view, it was also Churchill's arrangement that brought the Americans and the Japanese closer together and clashed more quickly.
But for Zhang Sixing, none of this matters. Importantly, meeting the commander of the base, Lieutenant General Arnold, may be his opportunity to open up the sequence of American arms manufacturers.
With this opportunity, I believe that Zhang Sixing will be able to gain more from this trip to the United States.
