Chapter 925 926 Sniper

Looking through the telescope, the distant scene is as clear as if it is in front of you. In the trenches that are still emitting smoke and dust, you can see domes with steel helmets passing by from time to time.

A full 400 meters away from this trench is a hidden bush, which is higher than the surrounding terrain, and it is very easy to observe all the surrounding movements.

The place has been remodeled two days ago. Below the bushes is a small trench. The other side of the trench continues to the reverse slope. People in the trench can quickly evacuate through this path.

In this small bunker, a watchman is vigilantly observing everything around him, and he is responsible for guiding his companions to the target.

And the companion next to him, at this moment, is sticking his eyes to the end of a long scope tube, watching quietly through the lens a Dahua soldier who is connecting a telephone line in the distance.

"That's just an operator, not worth attacking." The observer said casually as if he knew which target his partner was aiming at.

"I know, I'm just observing him. If you find an officer or a more valuable target, you can notify me." The sniper, who still had one eye closed, said while maintaining his posture.

On his rifle is a very delicate high-power scope, which is an 8x scope that cannot be produced in other countries, and the target is really clear.

There are very precise engravings on the scope, these engravings can help the sniper adjust the shooting angle due to the change of the wind direction - the ballistic trajectory will change due to the wind direction, an excellent sniper can adjust his shooting aiming advance through the wind direction .

Of course, they can also help provide auxiliary aiming for attacking dynamic targets, and can also calculate the height, width, and width of the target through the scale and distance measurement.

Each of these scopes is expensive to manufacture, and with the expensive sniper rifle below, it can be said to be perfect.The front of the lens is covered with a grid cloth to prevent reflections, and a camouflage cloth strip is wrapped around the entire barrel of the rifle.

The rifle used by the sniper is definitely expensive. This rifle is a high-precision sniper rifle manufactured by the military industry department of the Datang Group. In fact, it is not a mass-produced military model, but a small-production product.

Because it is almost perfect, the output of this rifle is extremely low, and the bullets used are all the finest bullets that have been carefully selected and adjusted.

The cost of each such a bullet is close to 1 gold coin, and the combination of the rifle and the scope that fires this bullet is not much cheaper than a cannon.

What is even more frightening is the sniper who uses this set of equipment. He has to shoot hundreds of bullets every day to maintain his sense of touch. He has to work hard every day to train his concealment skills and master the skills of wild survival. , is simply an almighty killing machine.

Ordinary soldiers shoot five or ten shots a day, which is considered a good amount of training, but these snipers have to shoot targets every day until they vomit.

If need be, he can stand still for hours, just waiting for an important target to appear.

In order to ensure the safety of such snipers, Datang Empire has prepared auspicious suits for each snipers, more comprehensive and comfortable multi-functional tactical vests, and their helmets are all specially made, lighter in weight and better in protection.

"The right side! Around 23 degrees... Do you see that target?" The observer, who was holding a telescope also covered with camouflage grid cloth, reminded his companion: "An officer, maybe a regimental commander."

"23 degrees... I saw the target you mentioned. The epaulets were deliberately removed, and he was wearing a soldier's helmet... I guess it should be the commander of their battalion." The sniper gave his own judgment.

"Who cares, you fire?" the observer asked, staring at the target intently.

"I'm ready to fire." Pressing his finger firmly on the trigger guard, the sniper pressed his finger on the trigger again and confirmed.

"Let's fight, I guess we'll change places in a while." The observer held the binoculars and stared at the target.

Suddenly there was a gunshot in the ear, echoing abruptly between the sky and the earth.In the next second, from his perspective, a flower of blood bloomed on the neck of the Dahua man in the military uniform without epaulettes, splashing on the face of the person next to him.

The target fell and fell into the trench and could no longer be seen. The sniper who fired took back his rifle and returned to the trench: "Let's go! This place is probably not safe."

He carried the rifle and put the backpack under his feet on his back directly. The observer packed his binoculars, then tidied up his backpack and followed the sniper, and left this very hidden position.

Because of security considerations, they will not continue to use this position. According to the tactical manual, snipers are generally not allowed to return to the location where they fired last time.

……

On the Dahua garrison's position, when the medical soldiers rushed to the accident site with the medical kit, what they saw was blood all over the ground and a lifeless body lying on the ground.

The man who had been shot had a hole in his neck from which blood flowed, staining his uniform, and the uniforms of several others, red.

Obviously, these people tried to cover the wound of the hapless man who was shot, but the bullet pierced the main artery, and the blood pressure was too high to cover the wound.

The military doctor walked over, knelt down on the bloody ground, checked the person lying there, and shook his head: "It's dead."

He knew that if he could find himself, the one who got hit must be a big shot: ordinary soldiers were killed in battle, but it was not his turn to come over with a military doctor like him.

All the people in the trenches were silent. Of course they knew who died, and that was their commander.These days, the offensive orders are so frequent that senior commanders often have to go to the front line to check the various situations of the troops.

But who would have thought that even though he was dressed as low-key as possible, he was still found by the opponent's sniper.One shot to seal the throat, there is no way.

"The opponent's marksmanship is very accurate. We have already killed seven or eight people here in the past few days, all of them are officers..." Looking at the body of the division commander lying there, the accompanying battalion commander looked embarrassed.He had reminded him of the safety issue, but who would have thought that it would still happen like this.

"It's not an option to go on like this. Write a report and let the higher-ups pay attention." Another officer glanced at the open area of ​​the trench where the division commander was shot just now, and said, "The opponent's sniper is so powerful...it's too affecting the front-line troops. morale."

"We've said it before, but we don't have any good solutions here." The battalion commander spread his hands helplessly: "I can only emphasize safety to the soldiers, and try not to reveal my position as much as possible."

"We don't have any good means of communication here, and it's not timely to call for artillery support. When our shells come down, the other party will have already run away." When the battalion commander spoke, someone had already found a stretcher and carried the division commander's body up. .

"It's definitely not possible to count on the artillery..." The officer who spoke also knew that he didn't have so many communication equipment down to the battalion level. When the signal soldier reported the possible hidden location of the sniper to the artillery, the day lily was cold.

It stands to reason that the battalion headquarters should have mortars, but the Dahua Army is in such a state: most battalion-level troops do not have enough heavy weapons, and the number of mortars is seriously insufficient.

It's not that there must be no equipment, but that the level of people with equipment can't keep up: there is no way to quickly determine the coordinates, and the mortar support is all indiscriminate.

Those who have the ability to calculate and shoot well are all in higher-level artillery units, even artillery officers. How can they be delegated to units like battalions?
"It's best to find a few snipers and kill the opponent's snipers, so that we can curb the opponent's harassment tactics." He said, looking at the battalion commander covered in blood, and asked: " How about it?"

"Yes, yes, but we don't have snipers here." The battalion commander was very embarrassed. It was a problem for his troops to just replenish soldiers. Where to find snipers.

"I'll write a report and ask for some sharpshooters to come over!" The officer took the problem all over himself: "This time, the commanders of our division are all killed. If there is no further action, how can we attack?"

There are some snipers in the Dahua Empire, but they don't have many high-performance sniper rifles.However, after fighting against the Tang Empire, the Dahua Empire managed to find as many sniper rifles as possible, and mass-produced some of them themselves.

The performance of these rifles can only be called precision shooter rifles at best, and the selected Cyric 1 bolt-action rifles are of better quality, equipped with 4x or 3x fixed magnification mirrors.

This kind of fixed magnification lens has an advantage, that is, it can not pursue excessive precision, and can manufacture a scope that can meet the complex conditions of the battlefield with a low level of processing accuracy.

Disadvantages are not without. This kind of fixed magnification scope often has a small magnification value, either 3 times or 4 times, and it is not easy to manufacture any larger.

There are not many Dahua snipers equipped with this kind of sniper rifle, and it is far less popular than the Tang Empire.In most cases, they are held in the hands of the commanders, and they are not willing to use them on the battlefield easily.

But the current situation is not necessary: ​​the Dahua Empire is attacking Fengjiang with all its strength, and it is obvious that these Dahua snipers are also part of its strength.

After Zhao Chen saw the news that a division commander was killed by an enemy sniper on the front line, he immediately ordered the sniper troops to go to the front line to fight.
