Chapter 42 Sniper
Xujia Village is only six miles away from Lingbang, and its location is almost between the First Battalion and the Third Battalion. It should be said that it will be closer to the Third Battalion, but the terrain near Lingbang is flatter, so it will be more convenient and faster to go to reinforcements from Lingbang.
But this was also because the Japanese army had not penetrated. Now the Japanese army was inserted into a ten-mile area between the two battalions, and this area was full of mountains and dense forests. At this time, it was a rainy night when you could not see your fingers. You could not find any of them to hide in them.
This made Zhang Chi and his group very cautious in marching, and they dared not walk on the mountain road, because there would definitely be ambush and blocking from the Japanese, so they could only go into the jungle.
But the jungle of Wild Man Mountain is full of kudzu shrubs and there is no road at all, so Zhang Chi had to let the two soldiers cut the road with a hijab in front of him... The disadvantage of doing this is that the sound of opening the road is likely to attract the Japanese army, but this is better than stepping into the ambush set up by the Japanese army.
Just as the soldiers were moving forward, Zhang Chi suddenly heard a strange sound... so he immediately ordered: "Stop!"
The warrior who opened the way immediately stopped his movements and the cat was lowered, and the other warriors also spread out to prepare for battle.
"What's the situation?" Peter approached and asked.
"There are enemies!" Zhang Chi replied.
What Zhang Chi just heard was a gust of rain. The rain was not heavy at this time, and the sound of rain in all directions was also very uniform and coordinated. However, a denser sound of rain appeared in front of the right. It should be that someone used to leaning towards the trunk and accidentally knocking down the rain on the leaves.
"The number of people may not be large at the direction of two o'clock!" Zhang Chi made this judgment, because if the number of enemies is large, it is impossible to just make such a sound.
Of course, if the Japanese army could hide so well, Zhang Chi had nothing to say.
"I heard nothing!" After listening carefully for a while, Pete whispered: "But I believe your intuition, what should we do now?"
This sounds a bit ironic. Peter is an American instructor. At this time, he should have told Zhang Chi and his soldiers what to do.
But Zhang Chi was not surprised at all. Because Americans had basically never experienced jungle wars, and they were even afraid of night wars, so of course they were helpless in such a rainy jungle war.
After thinking about it, Zhang Chi turned around and said to the soldiers behind him: "Five grenades and ten flashlights!"
"Yes!" the soldiers responded.
Pete couldn't understand Chinese, so he looked at a platoon of soldiers walking up with a gun on his face.
"Fight!" With Zhang Chi's order, the soldiers threw out five grenades to the front right, and then ten flashlights were thrown out.
Of course, this flashlight is first covered with the light with his hands and then thrown out suddenly, so as to avoid the light illuminating one's own people.
As the flashlights fell to the front right, the area was quickly illuminated, and in an instant, several Japanese soldiers who wanted to approach the black were exposed to the light, so the soldiers would be polite, and raised their guns and shot them in a rain of bullets.
Two or three were defeated at the moment. The remaining few hurriedly hid behind the trees and hid, but in the light of the flashlight, they were either moving forward or retreating, and they didn't even know where to fight back... The Japanese army in the light could not see the positions of the soldiers in the dark.
Pete was very happy at the first time: "This is so cool, good job!"
But Zhang Chi pulled Pit down, who was poking his head out, because he saw a reflection on the tree. It was the reflection of the sniper lens under the flashlight.
Sure enough, the next second, a bullet flew over Pitt's head with a "whizz", which scared Pete so much that he lay on the ground and didn't dare to move.
However, Zhang Chi seized this opportunity and fired several bullets at the position just now.
It is indeed not easy to find the Japanese army hiding in the tree, but at the same time it has a disadvantage. That is, once the position is exposed, the position cannot be quickly transferred as if it is on the ground. Some Japanese army even tied themselves to the tree to make it easier to shoot, so although Zhang Chi wasted some time and pulled Pete down, he still hit the target... In a short while, a corpse fell from the tree with a "bang".
Then Zhang Chi turned the muzzle and shot out several more bullets in the gun chamber, shooting out all the remaining bullets in the gun chamber.
Just when Peter was puzzled, another corpse fell from the tree...Pitt could hardly believe it was true. He could not understand how Zhang Chi discovered this Japanese sniper.
But this is not surprising at all. The Japanese sniper obviously did not expect the Chinese soldiers to appear in this direction. Although he could turn the gun on the tree, the leaves blocked his view because he did not cut off some of the thick branches in advance.
This forced the Japanese sniper to use his weight to press the branches down so that he could see the target... His slight action attracted Zhang Chi's attention, and he soon became Zhang Chi's gun ghost.
Then Zhang Chi changed his position as fast as possible, pressed the bullet and poked the rifle out again to look at the battlefield under the light of the flashlight.
At this time, Japanese snipers seemed to be no longer present on the battlefield, because the soldiers had achieved comprehensive victory... While Zhang Chi suppressed the Japanese snipers with a sniper rifle, the soldiers threw out a few grenades again and surrounded them, and soon killed several Japanese soldiers hiding behind the tree one by one.
But Zhang Chi still did not relax, and then he shot a pine tree with a few more shots when everyone was not caring.
Another corpse fell from the tree in the surprised eyes of the soldiers.
"How did you do it?" Pete couldn't help asking, "I didn't notice him at all!"
Zhang Chi just smiled and didn't answer.
The reason why this Japanese sniper did not shoot was because his target was Zhang Chi. He thought that as long as he waited for a while, the sniper Zhang Chi would appear at his gun.
Unfortunately, Zhang Chi discovered him first... The reason why Zhang Chi was able to discover him was because the flashlight in Xiao Zhejiang accidentally passed through the sniper's position. The light of the flashlight penetrated the leaves of the pine tree, but could not penetrate one of the people hidden in it, so Zhang Chi fired bullets at the target.
So sometimes it takes a little luck on the battlefield.
