Spy Shadow: Command & Conquer

Chapter 282, Pirates

"Continue to search."

"Groups of three. Must see each other."

Zhou Yang ordered.

The guard platoon then spread out towards the reed marsh.

In groups of three, divide into groups of a dozen or so.Carefully start the search.

Be very vigilant.

The insurance of the flower agency has been opened long ago.

All fingers were on the trigger.Once there is a situation, fire immediately.

Fortunately, in the reed marshes, submachine guns are actually quite useful.

As long as you see the target, it is a shuttle.

This kind of close-range shooting, the flower mechanism is still very advantageous.

Zhang Yong followed behind the team.

In his hand he held a shell gun.Uses a 20 round long magazine.For fear of insufficient firepower persistence.

He dared not take it lightly in such a dangerous place.

The display distance with a radius of 200 meters cannot completely ensure safety.It's still possible to get shot.

Even without a scope, some Japanese invaders can shoot and kill from 200 meters away.

The veterans of the Japanese invaders in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War were all perverts.It cannot be measured by ordinary people.

Zhou Yang also gradually fell behind the team.

He also saw danger.

The enemy may hide in the reeds and shoot black guns.

His guard platoon only has tricks, which may not be the enemy's opponent.The range of the flower mechanism is too short.

"Sir!"

A second body was found.

Still shot in the back.It was also a fatal shot.

After the bullet was dug out, it was also a bullet from a seven-nine rifle.The warhead is also split.

"Stop moving forward!"

Zhou Yang felt uneasy.Cannot continue searching.

He only had a platoon of 30 guards.Facing the vast reed marshes.There is simply no way to search all of them.Going in is also a waste of effort.

In case of being attacked by the enemy and killing a few people, the loss will be great.

Now that it is determined that the patrol team is all killed.The next thing is how to finish.

Order to slow down and stop advancing.

"There may be two murderers." Zhang Yong said after deliberation.

"How do you know?" Zhou Yang wondered.

"My guess."

"That means there are two people."

"Yes."

Zhang Yong did not explain.

Zhou Yang completely believed it.

Zhang Yong calculated it from the perspective of shooting.

With the map display, it is very convenient to calculate the shooting angle.There are also obvious footprints on the beach.

If there was only one murderer, after killing the security soldier, he would have to travel a long distance to get to another angle and shoot the last security soldier.Obviously, time was running out.

Unless there are two people.One chased out from the left.One chased out from the right.The angle between them is about 30 degrees.

Sure enough, he continued to walk forward and found two rows of completely disjoint footprints.

At the same time, two more bodies were found.

Still shot in the back.It means that the murderer is chasing them.

Then, the remaining five people must be in the front.In the depths of the reeds.It's more dangerous over there.

So far, no one has dared to move forward.

Zhou Yang waved his hand quietly.Guard platoon soldiers dragged the body out.

The Hanyang-made rifles carried by the soldiers of the security regiment were also collected.

Zhang Yong checked the rifle.

Both rifles bear marks of firing.

The five rounds of bullets in the barrel have all been fired.But no new bullets were loaded.

It is speculated that it may be under panic.Didn't have time to reload.

Check the body again.It did have five clips left.Five rounds each.That's 25 rounds in total.

When going out on patrol, everyone carries five magazines.Five more rounds were loaded in the chamber.

What does this mean?
It shows that the time for fighting should be very short.

Otherwise, there would be no time to load bullets.It is not difficult to load a magazine.

look up.

Raise the binoculars and observe.

Only the dense reeds can be seen.There are also crooked "channels" among the reeds.Perhaps it was stepped on by patrol soldiers.

Other than that, there are no other clues.

The murderer may have gone far.But it is also possible to continue to hide among the reeds.

It is basically certain that the other patrol soldiers should have died inside.Even if no body was found for the time being.Keep going, you will definitely find out.

However, here lies the oddity of the problem.

What is the murderer's purpose?
Or, why would the murderer do this?
Simply to shoot nine patrolling soldiers?

It seems that there is no need for this.

Frankly speaking, these nine patrol soldiers are worthless.

They are all ordinary soldiers.It has been investigated before.No one has any special background.There's little point in killing them.

If you said you want to demonstrate, how can you demonstrate when you kill people in such a reed marsh?

You see the gun goes off and no one hears it.

Demonstration ghost!

So.Was the murderer simply bored?
Just simply want to kill a few people to vent their sins?
Can't figure it out.

There must be something crucial in the middle...

"Usually, who would haunt the reeds?" Zhang Yong asked casually.

Looking at the sky east of the reed marshes.gloomy.

Seems like a storm is coming?
Behind the reeds, it should be the mouth of the Yangtze River.

The map shows that there seems to be a big island in the middle of the Yangtze River estuary?

Is it Chongming Island?

Unfortunately, the map does not yet have place names displayed.

Just a blank map.There are no place names.

"Except for occasional pirates." Zhou Yang replied, "But there is no road here, and the pirates are too lazy to go."

"Pirate?" Zhang Yong seemed to have heard a very strange term.

What year is it?And pirates?
It seems to be the 24th year of the Republic of China.There are still pirates in the Yangtze River Estuary?

"You're weird?"

"Is not it?"

"Where are there no pirates on the seaside now?"

"Really?"

"You really don't know much."

"Uh……"

Zhang Yong was taught obediently.

He really has little knowledge.Not even knowledgeable.

After coming to this era, many things have subverted his cognition.Pirates are also one of them.

"It's a mess right now. Just think about the bandits everywhere."

"That's right. Bandits. Pirates..."

Zhang Yong understood immediately.

That's right, banditry is very serious everywhere now.

Almost in a slightly remote place, there are bandits running rampant.Some have two or 300 people.There are earth cannons.

As long as you have a few guns in your hand, you dare to occupy the mountain and become king.Robbery.Killing and getting more.

Put this situation at sea.and so on.No wonder.

Rely on the mountain to eat the mountain.Live by water.Since grass can be turned into bandits on land.At sea, of course.

"There are several bandits on Chongming Island."

"you know?"

"I know!"

"Then why don't you go clean up?"

"Why go to clean up?"

"why……"

Zhang Yong was stopped by the question.

Unable to answer.

You are the staff officer of the Garrison Command, why do you actually ask me?
I am so...

You are officers and soldiers!Isn't it a matter of course for officers and soldiers to suppress bandits?
Still have to ask why?
If it is a team of teachers, with your awareness, you have to write at least a 5000-word self-criticism...

"Pirates, it's the navy's business. What's our business?"

"No. Navy..."

Zhang Yong was speechless.

Just those wrecked navies?
Count on them to suppress bandits?
But I have to admit that there is really a huge split in it.

No matter how many soldiers there are in the army, there is no way to go to sea without ships.No matter how elite troops are on land, they are all landlubbers at sea.Combat power is equal to zero.

The ocean is a bottomless pit.

No matter how many armies are filled in, it is not enough.

You mobilize elites like the 87th and 88th divisions to destroy the pirates.Otherwise, it would be suicide.

This point, the Japanese army will deeply taste it in the next few years.

The main divisions of the Japanese invaders who are fierce and dying, on land, one division can fight 10 national troops.But when it comes to the ocean, the combat effectiveness is zero.A few bombs can send a wing to feed the sharks.

In the huge Pacific War, the Japanese army that was sunk into the sea during the transportation process numbered at least tens of thousands.

In terms of organization, there are at least fifteen main alliances.

If it is on land, it is really too difficult, too difficult, too difficult to eliminate a main force of the Japanese invaders.

But when it comes to the sea, it's just a matter of taking the sheep by the hand.

U.S. planes bombed back and forth, and the devil's transport ships sank one after another.How many Japanese invaders are not enough to die.

The same goes for the National Army.

Who will use the army to wipe out pirates?

That's the Navy's business.

However, the navy has so few people and so little strength, how can it be wiped out?

Even an important waterway like the Yangtze Estuary.As long as the pirates don't attack important ships, the navy basically doesn't care.I can't manage it even if I want to.Not that kind of strength.

The result is……

Pirates are lawless!
As long as you don't start with an important goal, it's basically fine.

but!

The problem is still not resolved.

What is this patrol doing here?No motivation!

What's up with the pirates off the patrol?

If the patrol team didn't take the initiative to come here, no matter how arrogant the pirates were, it would be impossible for them to go to Baoshan County to kill them.

So, there must be some reason here...

Suddenly, a red dot cuts into the edge of the map from the east.

Zhang Yong suddenly became alert.

There are Japanese!

Was it really the Japanese who killed them?
Involuntarily grabbed a handful made in Hanyang.This is the standard equipment of the national army.

Except for a few main German mechanists who are equipped with original Mauser 98K, all other general troops use are made in Hanyang.Half new and not old.

Oh, and a special mention.After the last bombing at the Jinling Armory, Zhang Yong learned that the original rifle had not yet been officially put into production.

The production line has not been fully deployed yet.It may not be officially put into production until the end of the year.

The yield is not high either.Three thousand sticks a month.

If it goes well, it will be [-] pieces a year.The yield is very low.

Therefore, two years later, when the full-scale war of resistance broke out, the number of official rifles in China was not enough for [-] pieces.

Most of the army is made in Hanyang.Or other homemade rifles.

Compared with industrial powerhouses, the output of this rifle is really shabby.Not even a fraction of others.

The famous Garland M1 semi-automatic has produced more than 500 million pieces.

Another M1 Carbine, produced in larger quantities.There are more than 600 million sticks.

The famous Bobosha is also brutal, with more than 500 million at every turn.It's just horrible.

"what are you doing?"

Zhou Yang noticed Zhang Yong's actions.

Without hesitation, Zhou Yang himself grabbed a handful of Hanyang made.

He knew the subtleties and sensed the danger from Zhang Yong's actions.

"There are Japanese."

"what?"

"I can smell his breath."

"Where?"

"To the east, the distance is about fifty feet."

"Go back!"

Zhou Yang ordered immediately.

It is too dangerous to exchange fire with the Japanese invaders in the reed marsh.

Quickly retreated to the front of the reed marsh.

Zhang Yong retreated.Come to a pile of sand.There just happens to be a shooting spot here.

He gets down.Set up the Hanyang-made rifle.Aim at the location of the Japanese invaders.Finger on the trigger.Quietly waiting for the Japanese invaders to approach.

Unexpectedly, the second red dot entered the edge of the map again.

Oh, there are really two Japanese invaders.

They should be the ones who killed the patrol.

Perhaps, if they are captured alive, they will be able to know the answer.
