As the cooperation continued, the special shooters of the fifth regiment and the observers of the guard company became more and more tacit.
They also secretly admire each other.
The observers marveled at the marksmanship of these veterans. Each of them had superb shooting skills and extremely stable psychological quality. Even if the enemy's artillery fire was about to hit them, they could still follow the observer's instructions to kill the target calmly and calmly.
Veteran special shooters lamented the rich wartime experience of these young observers.
The Japs, officers, gunners, and shooters on the battlefield were almost invisible. The veterans had just knocked down a target, and the observers immediately passed on information about another target.
Not only that, in the face of the sniper team's raid, the Japanese army also counterattacked, but every shelling was detected by observers in time, and the shooters were reminded to evacuate in advance.
With this efficient cooperation, the two-person sniper team continued to shoot targets, with tension mixed with a touch of excitement.
Only then did the special marksmen of the Fifth Regiment realize the brilliance of having an observer on the battlefield. This kind of sniper tactic was something they had never tried before.
After climbing the gentle slope, under the sniper fire of twelve sniper teams, the Japs in the Tanye Squadron felt the fear of being dominated by snipers.
It's like you clearly know that the muzzle of the hidden gun is pointed at your head, but you don't know when the bullet from the hidden gun will come.
Death may not be terrible in an unexpected moment. What is terrible is that it is constantly shrouded in the fear of death at any time, which is almost suffocating.
"Asshole!"
Behind the gently sloping position, the Japanese squadron leader Yano cursed angrily. The observers who showed up several times, as well as the artillery and commander who accidentally exposed their positions, were constantly shot and killed by the Eighth Route Army snipers on the left front.
But Tan Ye was helpless. Those snipers hiding in the woods were as cunning as foxes. He tried to fight back with grenades in an attempt to kill these snipers, but it seemed to have no effect.
In addition, there seem to be a lot of snipers in the forest.
What makes Tan Ye even more troubled is that at the same time as these snipers attacked, the Eighth Route Army launched an attack at the same time.
Under such circumstances, it was impossible for Tan Ye to devote his main energy to dealing with these snipers hiding in the woods.
The main firepower of the Japanese squadron still needs to be poured on the main force of the Eighth Route Army launching the attack.
But if they want to suppress the Eighth Route Army's attack, which is far superior to its own, the Tanye Squadron needs to use light and heavy machine guns and grenade firepower.
Needless to say, the firepower of light and heavy machine guns must be set up on the top of a gentle slope, and the machine gunner must also have his head exposed, otherwise how can he aim?
The grenade's direct firepower does not need to show its head, but it always requires the cooperation of the artillery observer to hit the target accurately.
All of this was suppressed by a sniper team lurking in the woods on the left front of the Japanese position.
The Japanese machine gunners, artillery scouts, and commanders did not dare to show their faces at all.
Coupled with the constant artillery shells coming from the direction of the Eighth Route Army.
Even Tan Ye, who was commanding at the rear of the position, kept his waist down.
Until the main force of the attacking Eighth Route Army's shouts of killing seemed to be in front of him, Gu Ye, who was hiding in the blind spot area and secretly estimated the distance between the Eighth Route Army's charging troops and the position, had no choice but to issue an order to counterattack as a whole.
The last remaining Japanese soldiers emerged from behind the fortifications.
In order to ensure the safety of the machine gunner, Tan Ye even ordered some infantry to stand on the left side of the machine gunner to block the surprise attack of the Eighth Route Army snipers on the left front.
Four heavy machine guns and a dozen light machine guns were set up on the fortifications and began shooting in the direction of the attacking Eighth Route Army.
However, those who defend openly can never stop those who secretly attack.
The positions of Kong Jie and his sniper team are not static. In any change, they can always find an angle to kill the Japs' machine gunners.
Coupled with the fire cover of the small artillery platoon, when the main force of the fifth regiment launched the attack, several Japanese heavy machine guns roared for only a moment. They were either blown away by the small artillery platoon's shells or accurately shot by the sniper team.<
/p>
On the tragic battlefield, the Japanese machine gunner has become the most dangerous profession at this moment.
In the blink of an eye, the Tanye Squadron only had the last heavy machine gun left, and the machine gunner was shot out again.
Tan Ye shouted anxiously, "Heavy machine gunner, make up for it immediately!"
"Hi!"
The adjutant beside Tan Ye responded. Seeing that the main shooter and deputy shooter beside the last heavy machine gun had fallen, he rushed up personally and opened fire with the heavy machine gun.
Bang——
This is not a stray bullet on the battlefield, but a bullet fired accurately from the woods.
The Japanese adjutant fell down at the sound, and the heavy machine gun misfired again, followed by a roar, and finally the heavy machine gun was knocked out by the 50 cannon.
The light machine gun shooters are also almost withered. The firepower of more than a dozen light machine guns is now less than half. The Japanese grenade position was directly blown to pieces by the 50 cannon.
The team led by Commander Feng took the opportunity to detour from the left and right wings and quickly approached the Japanese position.
The battle lasted for another ten minutes and ended completely.
It's almost two o'clock in the afternoon.
The Guye squadron that was left behind was completely wiped out on the gentle slope fortifications, and more than a hundred Japanese were killed.
Phew...
The battle was over, and the members of the sniper team who were shooting at the Japanese troops in the woods were all relieved.
After the sniper teams quickly converged, Kong Jie asked: "Monk, what are the casualties?"
The monk replied: "Captain, don't worry, the enemy's artillery fire was mainly used on Commander Feng and others. Our side evaded in time, and only two comrades were slightly injured."
"Are any comrades of the Fifth Regiment injured?" Kong Jie said, his eyes already wandering over the special shooters of the Fifth Regiment.
Veteran Su Zhengqiang scratched his head and said with a look of shame: "Captain Kong, no one on our side was injured. It was the two comrades from the guard company who were injured, or they were injured because of protecting the shooter when the Japanese shells hit them.
Hurt."
Kong Jie nodded to the two injured soldiers from the guard company, "Well done!"
One of the soldiers whose arm was scratched by the fragments smiled at Su Zhengqiang and said: "It's just a little injury, it doesn't matter. As observers, our first priority is to protect the safety of your snipers."
Kong Jie also laughed: "Lao Huang, Lao Su, what do you think? The observer's tactics of cooperating with the shooter are not bad, right?"
Huang Baiyang, Su Zhengqiang and their entourage all nodded with emotion.
"Commander Kong, we have finally seen that shooting tactics can still be carried out like this." Su Zhengqiang sighed.
The monk smiled and said: "The tactic of two of us working together to kill the target is called sniper tactic."
Huang Baiyang said: "Captain Wei, actually we have been wanting to ask, what are sniper tactics?"
"Does the sniper know?" the monk asked.
Huang Baiyang nodded and replied: "I have heard a little bit about it. It is said that it is similar to the sharpshooters in our army."
The monk snorted and said: "That's not the same. Let me tell you, this sniper must be a sharpshooter, but a sharpshooter may not be a sniper. From a sharpshooter to a sniper, there is a lot of knowledge involved!"
"What are the traditional sharpshooters of our army? They are accurate shooters."
"But do you know what a sniper is? These snipers are not only excellent sharpshooters, but also excellent observers. Not only can they achieve precise sniping at long distances, they can also perform tasks such as reconnaissance, infiltration, concealment, and camouflage very well.
."
"In other words, what your sharpshooters can do, snipers can do, but what snipers can do, you sharpshooters may not be able to do."
"Not every marksman can become a sniper in the end. You have to go through a lot of systematic training, various sniper skills, physical fitness, including psychological quality, and a flexible brain. These are all indispensable."
Kong Jie remained silent on the sidelines. The monk has indeed grown up a lot.
Huang Baiyang, Su Zhengqiang and his party were all shocked when they listened to the monk's theory, which was completely new to them.
At this moment, these veterans no longer care about the instructions given to them by the monk who is only 18 or 19 years old.
In previous sniper team cooperation operations, these veterans have deeply felt the power of these young observers of the independent regiment.
Not to mention that the monk in front of me is the commander of the security company and Commander Kong's personal bodyguard.
His reputation throughout the 386th Brigade is not small, even the brigade commander praised him highly.
For Huang Baiyang and his team of special shooters, the monk opened a mysterious and attractive door for them.
These veterans who originally thought that the special shooter was their final end, had a different kind of light shining in their eyes.
"Captain Wei, you know so much!" Huang Baiyang praised.
But the monk waved his hand disapprovingly and said: "What's wrong with this? Almost all the soldiers in our security company know this common sense of military affairs."
"Everyone knows!" Huang Baiyang and the other veterans were stunned. They didn't know these things.
The monk said: "In our independent regiment, each company has set up tactical teaching courses. These military knowledge can be learned in the classroom."
"In addition, in addition to attending classes, our instructor Li will also draw figurine paintings to express some combat skills and knowledge in figurine paintings. For some words that they do not understand, the soldiers can ask the instructor or the clerk."<
/p>
"The paintings of these little figures are very interesting. The soldiers like to see them very much, and they fall in love with learning to read and write. Gradually, they also understand and learn some common military tactics."
Seeing the curious expressions on the faces of Huang Baiyang and the other veterans, Kong Jie said with a smile: "Monk, we are here to fight side by side with the comrades of the Fifth Regiment this time. We don't have anything good to give you, so just give us your little book of little figures."
Give it to Lao Huang and the others."
Huang Baiyang's eyes immediately widened.
But the monk quickly shook his head and said with a confused look on his face: "That won't work, Captain, I only have this booklet. It's all right. I still like to read it! This little man's paintings are so interesting!
”
Kong Jie scolded: "How many times have you read this booklet before and after it? What's the meaning of it? You give it to Lao Huang and the others, and I will ask Wenjie to draw two new volumes for you later." p>
"Okay!"
The monk immediately smiled happily, carefully took out a palm-sized booklet from his arms, handed it to Huang Baiyang, and said: "Old Huang, this is my treasure, you must cherish it."
Huang Baiyang took the booklet quite solemnly, then put his heels together and saluted the monk: "Don't worry, Captain Wei, the person is here and the book is here!"
The monk then gritted his teeth in reluctance and put the booklet in Huang Baiyang's hand.
Huang Baiyang, Su Daqiang and his entourage quickly gathered around the book, treating it like a treasure and carefully opening it.
I saw the subtitle on the first page of the booklet that read:
Sentinel alert and investigation.
Then the main content is a series of small paintings, accompanied by some simple and easy-to-understand words spoken by the characters in the paintings.
After reading a short comic story, it not only tells a complete story, but also contains a lot of military knowledge.
This lively and interesting way of expression quickly attracted Huang Baiyang and his party.
Cough cough cough——
It wasn't until the monk coughed that Huang Baiyang and his party were awakened. The monk said happily: "Old Huang, go back and take a look at this thing slowly. It's most comfortable to light a candle and lie in bed and look at it at night."
”
"Alas!" Huang Baiyang responded and quickly put the pamphlet carefully into his pocket.
On the gently sloping position, Commander Feng and his party were cleaning the battlefield. Kong Jie and the sniper team members did not need to rush to help.
"Let's go down and join Lao Feng and the others!"
Kong Jie said and led the team to set off.
While walking on the road, Huang Baiyang thought that he might soon return to the Fifth Regiment, so he shook the Type 44 rifle in his hand, full of reluctance, and couldn't help but ask: "Commander Kong, what did you say before?
Does it still count?"
Kong Jie asked: "What are you talking about?"
Huang Baiyang said: "You said before that this battle is over. As long as we comrades can kill more than two officers, you will give us this gun..."
Kong Jile said: "What do I think it is? Don't worry, I always speak with confidence. As long as you complete the task, this gun will be given to you."
"It's not just this gun. When Monk, Lao Huang and the others leave, each of them will be given another 300 rounds of bullets as a meeting gift from us."
Kong Jie waved his hand, and the independent regiment was short of everything, except bullets.
The monk told Huang Baiyang before that the average bullet per person in the independent regiment was thirty rounds, which probably includes all the kiln diggers, workers, construction workers, and non-combatants in the regiment.
Speaking of combatants alone, taking the First Battalion of the Independent Regiment as an example, the average bullet per person is probably no less than 100 rounds.
At present, Commander Kong can easily take out the three hundred rounds of ammunition per person.
"Yes!" the monk replied.
Twelve special shooters, each with a Type 44 rifle, were equipped with 240 rounds of ammunition allocated before the battle, and now each of them was given an additional 300 rounds of ammunition.
This generous move was quite a shock to Huang Baiyang and his party.
"Captain Kong, this..." Huang Baiyang and others were so shocked that they were almost speechless.
Kong Jie said with a smile: "The special shooter is a treasure! You deserve this, but if you really feel guilty, how about, Lao Huang and other comrades of the fifth regiment, I make a deal with you?"
”
Huang Baiyang asked in confusion: "Commander Kong, what's the deal?"
Kong Jie coughed slightly and said: "In order to deal with the current large-scale raids by the Japanese army, I am planning to temporarily form a sniper platoon composed of special shooters. You can follow me to fight the Japanese. I won't take too long. In three months, I will
We will help you grow from a sharpshooter to a sniper.
In addition, during my short-term work, my independent regiment will provide all the equipment and ammunition.
After the three months are over, I will record your merits based on each of your achievements, and distribute equipment and ammunition to you.
What do you think?"
Huang Baiyang and his party all considered the favorable conditions.
Everyone has already experienced the joy of fighting the Japanese under Commander Kong, with the best guns, the most abundant ammunition, and observers.
If you fight with Japanese soldiers, you can perform meritorious service, and after the battle, you can be given equipment and ammunition. When the time comes, you can bring them back to the regiment, and the regiment leader will definitely be happy.
Thinking of this, Huang Baiyang and his party became even more excited.
"It's just..."
Kong Jie said: "It's nothing, as long as you are willing to come, I will say hello to Lao Feng."
"Monk, after fighting for so long, it's time to eat. Give Lao Huang and the others a share of the cans and eggs you packed."
"Yes!" the monk responded. The guard company came here with a backpack. At this moment, they took out the backpack and began to take out canned beef, boiled eggs and other food from the backpack like magic.<
/p>
Until now in the battle, not even a drop of water has been eaten. Huang Baiyang and other soldiers saw so much delicious food that their saliva was almost dripping.
The monk said happily: "Eat slowly, don't choke. Let me tell you, this is daily food in our independent group. If you want to eat it, just take care of it!"
Huang Baiyang and other soldiers took over the food and ate it happily while sighing in their hearts:
I’ve heard that the food in the independent group is good, but I didn’t expect it to be so good!
Just for the food in front of me, it would be worthwhile to go to the Independent Regiment and work as a part-time worker for Captain Kong for three months.
"Commander Kong, wuwu... we... are willing to go to your place to fight the Japanese!"
"I do too!"
"I'm going too!"
The special shooters of the fifth regiment, with food still stuffed in their mouths and wishing they had two mouths, expressed their opinions in a vague manner.
Kong Jie nodded and smiled with satisfaction.
Yes, yes, there are so many precious shooters! They all have the potential to grow into snipers and are gradually becoming mature...
