Chapter 739: The Boring Waiting

In the observation mirror, the path is quiet, not to mention humans or small animals, there is no way to see one.

The solemn eyes never left the target area.

This is 462 meters away from the trail.

Zhuangyan used a laser rangefinder to perform accurate measurements.

Moreover, since it is a valley, when choosing a position, the shooting direction is along the direction of the valley and extending east and west, so it is SF Express. Even if there is a slight cross wind, it is only some oblique cross winds with an angle less than 30 degrees, which will not have much impact on the ballistics.

The camouflaged 85 sniper rifle has been loaded with the best special bullets, and all parameters are calculated in advance and pre-installed.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is not available.

As long as the target appears and send the situation here to the command center, the task of the two people will be completed.

As long as there is no accident, there will be no shooting.

Regarding the fact that perhaps the shot cannot be fired, although Zhuang Yan knew that it was the best choice from the old white-haired standpoint, he was more or less a pity for himself.

He rubbed his eyes, took out the eye drops from his pocket, unscrewed the lid, and gently squeezed two drops into his eyes.

The cold eye drops made the eyes extremely cool and cheered up.

Ba blinked his eyelids a few times, and then moved his gaze to the path.

The reconnaissance mission cannot be relaxed for a moment. You don’t even know when the enemy will appear. The only thing you can do is wait.

And you don’t dare to look away. If there is any enemy situation that cannot be controlled in time, it will also lead to the mission failure.

Therefore, for long-term monitoring, you must carry a tripod, set up the observation lens, aim at the target area, adjust the focal length and field of view, find the most comfortable position to lie down and lie there for monitoring.

Two people, each with one shift of 4 hours, rotated for monitoring.

At 3 o'clock in the morning, Zhuangyan took over the shift. It was already six:50 in the morning, and the horizon had already started to turn white.

He reached out and turned off the night vision switch.

This saves some electricity.

In order to maintain these seven days of monitoring, all kinds of equipment need backup batteries, and the two of them weighed a full 5 kilograms on the battery alone.

In special combat missions, everything must be carefully calculated because every piece of equipment will occupy your load limit.

Therefore, all equipment used by general special forces is as light as possible, made of titanium, aluminum, carbon fiber or high-strength engineering plastics, which can save a little weight.

“Tired?”

The old white-haired, who was sleeping in the sniper position, turned over and woke up.

This sniper position is a typical two-person position and can also serve as an observation center.

According to the number of personnel and the length of mission time, sniper positions in the field are generally divided into temporary, simplicity and permanent.

Temporary is the simplest, suitable for short stays in the mission area or when the best shooting point is too close to the enemy's position, resulting in the inability to dig the position and be afraid of being noticed by the enemy.

This is the most common in film and television works.

Just find a bush, a pile of gravel, etc., simply use auspicious clothes and nearby plants to disguise it simply, and cleverly use the environment to achieve the best camouflage hidden effect.

Simple sniper positions are also very simple. This position is mostly suitable for plains or desert areas where there are no tall trees around it to be used. They use the rain cloth and camouflage nets you carry, and the sand around them is spread on the rain cloth supported by backpack straps or climbing ropes to achieve the camouflage effect.

Of course, if you want, you can also use the quick-drying spray paint you carry, which also has a good effect.

Zhuang Yan and Lao Baimao are working on a permanent sniper position.

Because I have to stay here for seven days, the surrounding environment is extremely harsh, cold and dry, and occasionally snowflakes will fall in the wild, and the temperature will be below zero for a long time.

If there is no good position, let alone seven days, three days will die, and don’t mention completing the task.

No matter how awesome a sniper is, he is also a human being.

People are just an ant in front of nature. Don’t try to fight it with your own abilities, but use effective resources to adapt to it.

If you look down from above, you can change a lot from its shape if you look down from above.

For example, there is a "y" shape, where one person is placed in the two forks in the front, and the tail behind is used to store supplies.

Or vertical rectangular or horizontal rectangular positions.

Large sniper positions can even accommodate the next operational squad.

The majestic and old white-haired positions are the simplest ones in the permanent positions. They are rectangular in a longitudinal direction, with a depth of only 40cm and a width of 1.5m. They are camouflaged with rain cloth and camouflage nets. Since there is no vegetation here, only a thin layer of sand is sprinkled.

But even so, the camouflage effect is already full of excitement.

The camouflage net is specially made and has the function of isolating infrared overflow, so even if infrared reconnaissance is conducted in the sky, the sniper team on the ground cannot be seen.

"It's okay, not tired." Zhuang Yan said: "There are ten minutes left, and you can sleep again."

Lao Baimao rubbed his hands, moved his knuckles, and said, "Okay, I'll eat something and change your class."

After saying that, I took out a bag of self-heating food, poured water and started heating it - the water is not a problem here, because there is a piece of snow not far from the position, so I can climb out to dig some back to use it at night.

Whoever poured it into it will take a while to eat it.

Lao Baimao moved the backpack away, revealing a small hole on the ground. He put the self-heating food bag in and covered it with the backpack.

This can prevent excessive heat from being released. Although both the camouflage net and the rain cloth can isolate some infrared spills, it must be prevented.

Old white hair looked at the watch. After twenty minutes, the things will cool down after heating. The temperature reaches about 40 degrees, and you can eat it with peace of mind.

"What's going on?"

The old white-haired came over and picked up the task record manual placed next to the observation mirror.

The manual is recorded every hour.

The function and advantage are that it can record all abnormal changes in the target area, as well as changes in temperature, wind direction, etc.

This is helpful for making a reference and knowing the rules of the temperature, wind speed and wind direction near your position at different times, which is helpful for you to quickly bind and shoot the elements when you shoot later.

After reading the task manual, the old white-haired turned over, lay on the ground, looked up at the top of the rainbow and said, "How is it? Is it very different from what you imagined?"

Solemnly stared at the observation mirror and whispered: "It's a bit different, but it's okay. Don't forget that I have received professional training."

The old white-haired smiled "hehe" and didn't say anything.

Zhuang Yan suddenly remembered something.

He glanced at the old white-haired lying on the ground with his hands rolled up, and asked, "No. 0, can you tell me something?"

"What are you talking about?" Old Baimao's eyes were still staring straight at the roof.

"I, Captain Han, have I also participated in your training?"

"Yes." The old white-haired eyelids didn't blink.

"Didn't choose?"

"I lost the election."

"Why?"

The old white-haired did not answer immediately this time.

Zhuang Yan felt that she had asked questions she shouldn't have asked, and she didn't dare to ask them.
