The war of resistance against mountains is heavy

Chapter 2383 Sniper's Victory Banquet

Zhu Weiyan was just observing the Japanese soldier with half of his head exposed behind the rock through the telescope, just as the Japanese soldier was also concentrating on observing the mountain below.

Zhu Weiyan’s marksmanship is only average, but as the saying goes, one has never eaten pork but has seen pigs run. How could a battalion commander like him not know what a person with good marksmanship looks like?
In fact, let alone the fact that they were 500 meters away from the Japanese soldier, how big would a human head be if they were 300 to 400 meters away? Moreover, this was only half a human head.
Shooting with a rifle within a hundred meters is fine, but if you go further than four hundred meters, you have to consider many factors such as wind direction, humidity, sunlight, and the fall of the bullet after a long distance flight.

Anyone who can kill the enemy with one shot from 500 meters away despite the influence of many factors is definitely a monster and a genius!
So, is Shang Zhen such a genius?

"Snapped!"

Shang Zhen's gunshot was fired right beside Zhu Weiyan's ear, and Zhu Weiyan's doubts vanished the moment Shang Zhen's gunshot sounded.
It was because he clearly saw that the Japanese soldier fell forward, his head hit the stone and then he fell to the ground. The man disappeared immediately, and only the stone was left there, as if no one had ever been there.

"Good!" Low but suppressed cheers from several soldiers came at the same time from where they were hiding.

It wasn't just Zhu Weiyan who was concerned about whether Shang Zhen could hit the Japanese army. There were five soldiers holding binoculars next to him. How could they not cheer when they saw the enemy being killed with one shot from 500 meters away?

It only took a blink of an eye for Shang Zhen to fire his gun, and it also took a blink of an eye for the onlookers to cheer. Then the soldiers started shouting!

The reason for the shouting was that Shang Zhen's shot was like a stone thrown into a pond, which made countless splashes of water with a "splash". The Chinese soldiers at the foot of the mountain saw many Japanese soldiers emerging from the Japanese positions on the mountain!

Zhu Weiyan shrank back with the telescope and hid himself, but at the same time he turned to look at Shang Zhen.

He saw that Shang Zhen had put down the rifle in his hand, but was observing with a telescope.

Although Shang Zhen's observation movements were extremely small, Zhu Weiyan knew that Shang Zhen was quickly observing the situation of the Japanese troops on the mountain.

Although Shang Zhen was holding a telescope, everyone could imagine that when the telescope moved left and right it was like a person scanning a circle with his eyes. How far could a person's eyes move?

Shang Zhen just glanced through the telescope and then put it down. When he raised his body again, the Type 38 rifle was already against his shoulder.

Shang Zhen just used a telescope to observe the Japanese soldiers who appeared because of the sound of his gunfire. Now he needed to shoot continuously. It was a rare opportunity!

He didn't pay any attention to Zhu Weiyan beside him, and all his actions from raising the telescope to observing and then raising the gun to shoot were seen by Zhu Weiyan.

Shang Zhen's movements were as smooth as water without any unnecessary movements. Zhu Weiyan was already certain that Shang Zhen was the genius in using guns!

Genius? Zhu Weiyan opened his mouth in astonishment. This discovery made even this veteran stunned for a moment.

The sound of Shang Zhen's gunfire again woke him up as if from a dream. He quickly picked up the telescope and turned around to watch Shang Zhen's results.

The Japanese troops on the mountain were also experienced in battles, and not to mention how poor their military discipline was when dealing with Chinese civilians. That is the nature of invaders. However, their combat discipline and tactical actions were only better than those of the Chinese army.

For a moment, it was unclear how many Japanese soldiers had raised their rifles and began to search down the mountain.

Although Zhu Weiyan was using a telescope, he couldn't see the expressions of the Japanese soldiers clearly, but he could imagine that the Japanese devils on the mountain were like jackals, with bloodthirsty light flashing in their eyes.

But what does it matter? Even the most ferocious jackals are afraid of hunters' guns. Shang Zhen fired three more shots in succession.

Since Zhu Weiyan was observing through a telescope, although he could see clearly, his field of vision was limited. He only captured that two Japanese soldiers were shot again, and did not see the effect of Shang Zhen's third shot.

But this did not prevent him from noticing that after Shang Zhen fired these shots, the Japanese troops on the mountain became a little chaotic. Although some Japanese soldiers were blindly firing towards the foot of the mountain, more Japanese soldiers retreated!

So what is the result of Shang Zhen's first five shots? Even if he only killed four, he successfully intimidated the Japanese army!

"Da Da Da" "Da Da Da"

Just as Shang Zhen started loading bullets into his rifle again, several Japanese light machine guns suddenly fired.

Although the Japanese army's shooting was loud, it did not pose any threat to Shang Zhen and other Chinese soldiers who were ambushing 500 meters away.

The reason was that the Japanese army's shooting was blind. According to Zhu Weiyan's estimation, the nearest impact point was more than a hundred meters away from them.

Having observed the terrain below Houer Pass, Zhu Weiyan could imagine several areas where the Japanese army was now shooting at the most likely hiding Chinese gunmen: a hill covered with bushes, a dense forest, and a large rock surrounded by rocks.

However, the Japanese army never expected that there were Chinese soldiers hiding 500 meters away and shooting at them, while the area they were shooting at was within 400 meters!

Zhu Weiyan knew that it really wasn't the Japanese devils' fault for not thinking of this. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have thought that Shang Zhen's shooting skills would be so accurate!
However, the subsequent development of this asymmetric warfare once again exceeded Zhu Weiyan's expectations.

Shang Zhen’s gunshot was so inconspicuous in the hail of Japanese army’s gunfire, but then it became a "conspicuous bag"!
Because Zhu Weiyan noticed that after Shang Zhen fired two more shots, the two Japanese light machine guns that were firing at the moment fell silent! The Japanese soldier who was operating the light machine gun was actually killed by Shang Zhen!

Just as Zhu Weiyan was feeling excited again, the gunfire from the Japanese side suddenly stopped. It was an abrupt and uniform stop.

There was no doubt that a Japanese officer had given the order to stop shooting.

It must be that the Japanese commander discovered that their blind shooting was completely ineffective. The fact that one after another the so-called Imperial Japanese Army soldiers "died in battle" was irrefutable proof of this!
The Japanese army's gunfire stopped, but Shang Zhen's gunfire did not stop.

In the sudden silence, Shang Zhen's shot sounded so pleasant.

As the gunshot rang out, Zhu Weiyan happened to use a telescope to capture a Japanese officer throwing away a knife next to a large rock. Of course, it can also be said that he fell to the ground and died!
Brother Zhang Jidong is a great shooter and he can spot the Japanese devils very accurately. He even knocked down the Japanese officer who was commanding the battle on the battlefield!

There was no need for more. Zhu Weiyan knew that Shang Zhen had only fired ten shots in total, but these ten shots successfully suppressed hundreds of Japanese soldiers on the opposite mountain, making them all feel insecure and hiding. This was truly a feast for snipers!
Zhu Weiyan originally thought that Shang Zhen would also do what their regiment or division did, symbolically firing a few shots at the Japanese army, or even launching a one-way attack on the Japanese army at the cost of casualties. No matter what the casualties were, it would be an explanation to the higher-ups.

But he really didn't expect that Shang Zhen also shot at the Japanese army like them.

To say that those ten or so shots were fired was certainly not a lot, but the number of Japanese soldiers killed was almost the same, although not every shot hit the target. One man with just one gun managed to kill hundreds of Japanese soldiers.

It's the same prescription with the same medicine, so why do the effects differ?
