Alien Arms Empire.

Chapter 929 930 A Psychological Game

Finding the enemy's sniper on the battlefield is a very complicated thing. You need a very delicate plan and choose the more suitable one among many options.

This is a process full of unknowns. On the already very complicated battlefield, guess where the enemy snipers may appear, and then choose a relatively safe location.

The danger is that the enemy is likely to guess your thoughts, so they will be wary of those hiding places that you think are safe, and even set up an ambush in such places, waiting for your arrival.

So this is a game process. As a sniper, you need to guess the enemy's mind, and then do the opposite, waiting for the target to take the bait in the opponent's only way or hiding place.

When necessary, you also need bait, which is the same as hunting.It's just that hunting is just putting bait in the target area, and snipers who hunt and kill the enemy need to use real living people as this bait.

It is unknown whether the cunning fox will be fooled. Everything on this battlefield is full of unknowns. There are infinite possibilities here, and it may even cost your own life.

The snipers of the Tang Empire had obvious advantages in rifle range and sight accuracy, so Cao Fei decided to set up his sniper position in a place beyond the normal engagement distance that the enemy could not imagine.

This distance is about 400 meters. Obviously, this is no longer a normal sniper engagement distance.Except for the Tang Empire, snipers from other countries in the world have a normal combat distance of only about 200 meters to 300 meters.

Even the most powerful snipers rarely fire at a distance of more than 300 meters, because in their scope, a person at this distance is about the size of a coin five meters away.

It is already very difficult to hit a target at this distance, because the influence of wind speed and gun recoil must also be considered.

Cao Fei doesn't need to care about these things. He has the experience of killing targets at a distance of 400 meters to 500 meters. The weapons in his hand can support him in doing so. This is the advantage brought by technology.

Observers also agreed with him, because at a distance of 400 meters, even if the enemy found their position, they would not be sure to fire.

It can be said that fighting at this distance, they are almost safe.There is almost no risk other than the enemy calling for artillery coverage.

"The two people from yesterday died here and here." On the very detailed map, the observer marked the positions where the two Fengjiang snipers were killed.

He had just communicated with the commander of the Fengjiang garrison here for a long time, chatted for a long time, and asked almost all the questions.

The other party has been tortured by the enemy's snipers for several days, and they are always in fear, so they are also very disgusted with these damn enemy snipers.This kind of disgust made him remember deeply, and he told many details about the soldiers on his side being sniped.

"Looking at the position, the opponent's sniping position is not a fixed point. No position has the shooting angles of these two places." Cao Fei just glanced at it and saw that the opponent fired from two angles.

"Is it possible that there are two sniper teams?" The observer cautiously raised a possibility.

Cao Fei shook his head: "It's unlikely, let alone a serious sniper at this density, the machine gun team can't afford it."

"Then which one should we take care of first?" The observer swiped his finger on the map. On this map with contour lines, there are many places that can be used as sniper positions.

"I prefer to be halfway up the mountain. The top is too conspicuous and easily covered by shelling. The vegetation on the halfway up the mountain can be better." Cao Fei pointed to a point on the map and said, "Seal the first suspicious point here first. Try your luck."

"Listen to you!" The observers put away the map, picked up the binoculars and looked into the distance, then bypassed a large crater made by a shell, and walked to the location they chose.

It is indeed a good position there, even behind the main position of Toyoe defenders.There are many bomb craters nearby, and some vegetation grows tenaciously on the edge of the bomb crater, which can provide excellent cover for snipers.

Climbed directly from the reverse slope to the corresponding position, the observer found a slightly higher position on the right side of Cao Fei and crawled to the observation position. His angle was better than Cao Fei, and he could observe a little more The place.

Cao Fei slowly moved to the lower side of the observer, stretched out his gun barrel wrapped in rags among a clump of weeds, and aimed at the location where they suspected the enemy sniper fired through the gaps in the weeds.

According to the requirements of the sniper manual of the Great Tang Empire, in fact, the snipers of the Great Tang Empire are generally not allowed to return to the place where they fired last time to continue fighting.

It's just that this is the Tang Empire's own sniper tactics manual. Other countries don't have such requirements. Their sniper tactics are still at a very primitive stage, and they don't even have secondary shooter tactics.

"The field of view is good! I can see that position." Holding the binoculars, the observer clearly saw the position where the enemy sniper might be hiding.

He looked around and even saw a steel helmet worn by a soldier of the Great China Empire moving along a trench.

"I'm ready." Cao Fei has already seen the very hidden small pit through his scope. His position is relatively high. If the opponent returns to this shooting position, he can easily shoot and attack.

Under normal circumstances, snipers enter the sniper position before dawn. This is for safety and to minimize the possibility of being discovered by the enemy.

However, because the sniper location Cao Fei and the others chose was too far back, as much as 400 meters away from where they wanted to attack, and because their sniper position was very hidden and difficult to be detected, they arrived here directly.

There was no one in the place they suspected, but looking at some traces, it could be seen that someone had probably been here before.

It was very smart for the opponent to choose such a place as a sniper position: it is very low and easily overlooked.But correspondingly, when targeting special angles, its shooting range is very good.

"It's a smart man, what a pity." Looking at that place, Cao Fei said to the observer beside him without moving, "If this were in our Tang Dynasty, he might be able to train him to be a good sniper."

"It's a pity that you didn't kill ten people, but eight?" The observer didn't move, and responded with a telescope.

The two of them were like two stones, lying there motionless, under the cover of auspicious suits, it was almost impossible to be discovered.

Unlike the snipers played in movies, the work of snipers on the real battlefield is very boring.These ruthless people with perfect bullets often lie in one place without moving for a long time, waiting for a target all afternoon.

The problem is that waiting for the target may not appear, and there may not be a chance to shoot a single shot in a day.

The method of talking about shooting and killing a few enemies to attract the enemies to come to you is not saying that it is impossible, but it is actually very difficult to implement.

You must find one or several excellent positions where you can kill the enemy before firing, and open fire in these places to attract the attention of enemy snipers.

Before that, you have to find out where the enemy may appear in advance, and then find a suitable good position to ambush the enemy... It is difficult to gather so many conditions on the battlefield, and even if you have all the conditions, you need to use them carefully.

After all, if the enemy's sniper is smart enough, it is very likely that he will think of this and find the place where he wants to ambush you...

In short, this is a series of battles of wits and courage, and there are many psychological games in each trial.It is very likely that you guessed for a long time that the opponent hit a straight ball, and it is also possible that you calculated the opponent's calculation and won the final victory.

This wait lasted more than an hour, and the two of them hardly moved their bodies. They lay on the spot, listening to the roar of artillery fire in the distance, as if other things in the whole world had nothing to do with the two of them.

In the past few days, the Dahua army has been attacking Fengjiang frantically, and the main attack direction is not here, so it is relatively quiet here, and the positions of the two armies have not changed significantly.

Both sides are strengthening their defensive positions. This kind of experience has been accumulated in the past two or three years, because this is the most important training subject for the Dahua Empire.

They were afraid of the Tang Empire's attack, so they emphasized the importance of building fortifications once the troops stopped.

So at this time, the entire front is criss-crossed, with trenches everywhere, and reinforced and concealed machine gun bunkers everywhere.

"It seems that our prey did not appear here today." Cao Fei said when the light was not so good.

"Ah... indeed." He yawned, and the observer agreed, "Why don't we kill a few minions and attract them?"

"Wait for another day tomorrow. If we fire first, we will lose the initiative. Then the situation will become more complicated." Cao Fei took one last look at the target area in the distance, and then withdrew his sniper rifle .

The observing hand also slowly moved his body backwards. Now that the sun has set in the west, most of the light has sunk into the horizon.Their experience is very rich, the location is very good, not looking directly at the sun in the afternoon.

Obviously, they returned without success today, and the boring waiting will continue tomorrow.The artillery battle in the distance is still going on, because Fengjiang's air force returns, it seems to have become more intense.

Accompanied by the sound of the rumbling cannons, Cao Fei and the others returned to their hideout and had a steaming dinner to make up for the regret of sleeping in the open today.
