Observing through the telescope, the scene in the distance is as clear as if it is right in front of you. In the trenches where smoke and dust are still rising, 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. The terrain here is higher than the surrounding terrain, making it very easy to observe all the movements around you.
This place had been renovated two days ago. Under 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 lookout is vigilantly observing everything around him. He is responsible for guiding his companions to the target.
The companion next to him was placing his eyes on the end of a long scope tube at this moment, quietly looking through the lens at a Dahua soldier in the distance who was connecting the phone line.
"That's just an operator, it has no offensive value." 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, maintained his posture and said.
There is a very exquisite high-power scope on his rifle. It is an 8x scope that cannot be produced in other countries. 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 changes in 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 scale and distance.
Each of these scopes is expensive to make. When paired with the expensive sniper rifle below, it can be said to be perfect. The front of the lens is covered with mesh cloth to prevent reflection, and the entire barrel of the rifle is wrapped with camouflage cloth strips.
.
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 military mass-produced model, but a small-production work.
Because of the almost pursuit of perfection, the output of this rifle is extremely low, and the bullets used are the finest bullets that have been carefully selected and adjusted.
The cost of each such bullet is close to 1 gold coin, and the rifle that fires the bullet and the scope combined are not much cheaper than a cannon.
What is even more terrifying is the sniper who uses this set of equipment. He has to shoot hundreds of rounds of bullets every day to maintain his feel. He has to work hard every day to train his concealment skills and master skills such as survival in the wild.
, is simply an all-powerful killing machine.
For ordinary soldiers, shooting five or ten rounds a day is considered a good amount of training, but these snipers have to shoot until they vomit every day.
"The opponent's marksmanship is very accurate. Seven or eight of our people have been killed in the past few days, all officers..." Looking at the corpse of the division commander lying there, the accompanying battalion commander looked embarrassed. He reminded the security
It's a problem, but who would have thought that things would still happen like this.
"This is not the way to go. Let's write a report and let the superiors take it seriously." Another officer glanced at the open area of the trench where the division commander had just been hit, and said: "The opponent's snipers are so powerful...it affects the frontline troops too much.
morale."
"We have said this before, but we don't have any good solutions here." The battalion commander spread his hands helplessly: "We can only emphasize safety to the soldiers and try not to expose our position as much as possible."
"We don't have very good means of communication here, and we couldn't call for artillery support in time. By the time our shells came down, the enemy would have already run away." While the battalion commander was speaking, someone had already found a stretcher and carried the division commander's body up.
.
"It's definitely not possible to rely on the artillery..." The officer who spoke also knew that he did not have that much communication equipment down to the battalion level. When the communications soldiers reported the possible hiding positions of the snipers to the artillery, the day lily was cold.
It stands to reason that the battalion headquarters should have mortars, but the Great Chinese 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 doesn't mean that there is no equipment, but the level of people who have the equipment cannot keep up: there is no way to quickly determine the coordinates, and the mortar support is just random.
Those who have computing power and are good at artillery are all in higher-level artillery units, and they are even artillery officers. How can they be delegated to units like battalions and regiments?
"It would be best to find a few snipers to kill the opponent's snipers, so that the opponent's harassment tactics can be curbed." He said, looking at the battalion commander who was covered in blood, and asked: "
How about it?"
"Okay, okay, but we don't have snipers here either." The battalion commander was in a dilemma. It was very problematic to just replenish his troops. Where could he find snipers?
"I'll write a report and apply for some sharpshooters to come over!" The officer took the problem on himself: "This time, our division commanders have all been killed. How can we attack if there is no action?"
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 still found some sniper rifles as much as possible, and they also
Some were also mass-produced.
In fact, the performance of these rifles can only be called precision marksman rifles at best. They use better quality, selected Cyric Type 1 bolt-action rifles, and are equipped with 4x or 3x fixed magnification scopes.
One advantage of this type of fixed magnification is that it does not pursue excessive precision and can produce a sight that can meet the complex conditions of the battlefield at a low level of processing accuracy.
There are also disadvantages. This kind of fixed-magnification scope often has a very small magnification value, either 3 times or 4 times. No matter how large it is, it will be difficult to manufacture.
There are not many Dahua snipers equipped with such sniper rifles, and they are far less popular than those in the Tang Empire. In most cases, they are held in the hands of commanders and are not willing to be used on the battlefield easily.
But the current situation is no longer necessary: the Dahua Empire is using all its strength to attack Fengjiang, and it is obvious that these Dahua snipers are also part of that effort.
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 unit to fight on the front line.
