Ambush and Kill
Chapter 1414 Ambush and Kill
There is no human habitation within a few miles of this hill, so there is no need to worry about the midnight gunshots spreading in the wind and snow and disturbing other post-Golden troops.As for ruthlessly killing all the enemies present, there is no psychological obstacle for the soldiers of the sniper team.The information they received all showed that the enemies in Liaodong were barbaric and cruel, and naturally they would not have any thought of being soft-hearted towards such enemies.
The forest was filled with a strong smell of blood, and it seemed that they could smell this smell, and the howling of wolves could be faintly heard in the distant snowy field.Morgan ordered the fire in the middle of the camp to be rekindled to keep the beasts from getting too close.Then everyone dragged the corpses to the side and piled them together, temporarily covering up the bloodstains and corpses with snow.This is not to worry about someone discovering these corpses, it is purely to prevent the smell of blood from spreading out and attracting too many carnivorous beasts.
Killed the patrol team composed of twelve post-golden soldiers, but the snipers didn't feel much excitement. After all, the combat skills they need to practice on this trip are not close-up assassinations. It's really nothing to kill these post-golden soldiers with pistols There is a sense of accomplishment.However, Morgan ordered to dispose of the scene and the body of Hou Jinbing, which in itself has shown a certain attitude, so the soldiers are also waiting for him to issue new instructions.
"We'll stay here for a while." Morgan looked at his watch, and then said to his subordinates: "Wait for the next patrol from the enemy to throw themselves into the trap, and use them as targets for training!"
Of course, Morgan was also unwilling to take such a big turn around after taking the risk, just to complete the reconnaissance mission.The purpose of his trip was to provide the snipers with an opportunity for actual combat training, but if they haven't even used the main weapon, what is it called actual combat training?
The two-day reconnaissance operation made him basically sure that this is the southern border patrolled by the Houjin army, and the nearest Houjin stronghold is about ten miles away, and a patrol team will be sent to change guards the next day. , so they can completely wait for work, waiting here for the enemy's small team to come to their door.As for how long it will take for the Hou Jin army to respond to this, Morgan is very optimistic. With the loose management system of the enemy army, it may be difficult to have a perfect emergency plan.
However, out of prudence, Morgan still sent one of the soldiers of the Special Operations Battalion to return to the mountain station more than ten miles away overnight, and informed Gao Qiaonan of the trip and Morgan's arrangements.He doesn't need Takahashi Minami to send troops here to help in the battle, but it is definitely necessary to make preparations for the response. In addition, he also needs some supplies from the rear in time.The sniper team did not have much rations for this operation. If they wanted to spend a few more days in the wild, they had to rely on the supply from the rear.
Now that he was determined to occupy this place, Morgan naturally no longer worried about the fire showing his whereabouts, so he immediately ordered someone to boil a pot of water first.The drinking water they brought with them when they set off had already been used up, and now the water jugs are filled with snow, which is frozen into a ball and cannot be drunk at all.Until then, it was finally possible to eat a hot meal.After drinking the hot water, everyone's spirits were obviously restored.
The soldiers found some rice and cured meat from Hou Jinbing's tent, and threw them into the pot for cooking.Although this kind of chowder is tasteless, it is good food for people who have eaten cold dry food in the snow for two days.
After solving the belly, Morgan routinely deployed the night sentry.The Haihan Army is not as chaotic as the Houjin Army. Even if there are only two or three people camping in the wild, they will arrange rotation guards.Of course, the direction that the sniper team needs to guard against is exactly the opposite of that of the Houjin patrol team, and the north is the direction that needs to be guarded.
After finishing these things and setting up the tent, it was already eleven o'clock at night.Morgan groped into the sleeping bag, listening to the heavy breathing of his subordinates in the tent, his heart calmed down instead.Compared with the comfortable life in Hainan Island where there are people running errands for everything, Morgan feels that it is only at this moment that he really feels energetic. The excitement of fighting in the wild cannot be experienced in the office anyway. Morgan enjoyed this feeling so much that he didn't even want to go back to the more peaceful rear of his life.
Going deep into enemy-occupied areas to perform reconnaissance missions has long been done by no traveler. Even front-line commanders like Qian Tiandun, Wang Tom, and Haru Gong would not easily put themselves in danger.Only Morgan will still boldly conduct reconnaissance and exploration of unknown areas according to the habit of a sniper. Even if it is a senseless risky move in the eyes of others, Morgan will still do it according to his own will.Perhaps it was also the case, Morgan's students all admired him, and some even regarded him as the ancestor of the special branch of the sniper.Although the patriarch is a Westerner, Morgan can speak Chinese fluently now, so it doesn't make his subordinates feel alienated.
How Haihan Kingdom will expand outwards in the future, where the Executive Committee's desire to conquer will end, and what plans the Ministry of Defense has, are actually not Morgan's real concerns.He is just a very pure soldier who wants to prove the value of his existence through constant fighting.Regardless of whether it is Houjin or other armed forces, Morgan will not hesitate to join the battle as long as the situation requires it.
"Wars, especially winning battles, are really addictive!" A strange thought flashed through Morgan's mind, and he fell into a deep sleep.
The sky had just dawned when Morgan was woken up by his subordinates.It's not that something happened, but his request before going to bed yesterday, to wake him up immediately after the shift in the morning.For the battle that may break out again today, Morgan must make some arrangements in advance in order to obtain the best results for this actual combat training.
According to the information so far, there should be a patrol team from the north to replace the troops stationed here today, so Morgan intends to use the patrol team sent to his door as a target to let his snipers practice field combat.Considering that there may be so few cavalry in the patrol team, the cavalry who is the easiest to escape must be killed first in order to catch them all. Therefore, there must be a division of labor for the shooting target, and the shooting angle must also be designed.Otherwise, if all the snipers are crowded together, the area and power of the output firepower will not be able to exert their due level.
Based on the location where the Houjin patrol team set up camp here, it is not difficult to deduce their route from the north to climb the hill, and the multiple shooting positions designed by Morgan are aimed at this route, allowing the sniper team to The intensity of fire output is maximized.As for the consideration of the shooting distance, it is necessary to consider the current geographical environment and climatic conditions. If the snowfall continues, the visibility will directly affect the operations of the snipers. These objective factors must be considered in advance.
Morgan was worried that the opponent's patrol team would come early, so he also got up early in the morning to deploy, and firmly controlled the initiative in his own hands.But until noon, no one was seen in the north.Morgan had to keep half of the staff on duty, taking turns eating in batches.
Until around two o'clock in the afternoon, the Houjin patrol team who came to change shifts finally appeared in the field of vision of the telescope. Morgan immediately gathered his hands and entered the combat position to wait for orders.
This Houjin patrol team is also configured with 12 people, three riders and nine steps. It seems that this should be the standard configuration of the patrol team of the Houjin Army.But they probably wouldn't have thought that what was waiting for them in this forest was not their companions, but the elite of the Haihan army who were armed with live ammunition and ready to use them as live targets.
To be on the safe side, Morgan arranged for the two men with the best marksmanship to be in charge of the three riders, and the rest to be shared by the rest.Because the sniper operation was well prepared, Morgan did not arrange observers according to the one-on-one principle, but handed over the task of observing the results to the only non-sniper, so that the twelve snipers brought out this time The soldiers all acted as shooters in order to maximize the training effect.
Because the snow still hadn't stopped, Morgan decided to bring the target closer before shooting.Of course, this close range is relative to the range of a sniper rifle, and it is still difficult for ordinary rifles to aim with the naked eye.
But things didn't go as smoothly as Morgan expected. When the army was about a hundred feet away from the hill where the sniper team was hiding, they suddenly stopped silently.Morgan quickly picked up the binoculars to observe, and found that the rider on the horse seemed to be looking at something in the direction of the camp high up on the hill with a pergola.
The sniper team had already counted the number of corpses after killing people last night, and conducted another inspection of the entire mountain this morning. It was basically certain that no one would slip through the net.And the corpses of those post-golden soldiers are all piled up together, and now they are frozen hard, and it is impossible to see the place where the corpses are hidden at the foot of the mountain, so what are these post-golden soldiers looking at?
"Not good!" Morgan suddenly realized that although the Houjin patrol team has a careless side, this is a war zone after all. When the other party changes guards, if they just walk up like this, there will definitely be certain risks.After all, it is not surprising that a patrol team like this is suddenly taken away by the Haihan Army, so the personnel stationed here should set some kind of safety signal for the patrol team who came to change the guard, otherwise it means that something has happened here. problem, don't enter it rashly.
The signal might be to hang a flag somewhere, or to light a lantern, but last night the entire patrol team was killed, and of course there was no time to leave a safe signal for the companions who arrived here the next day.This was originally a very basic approach, but Morgan has always looked down on the military quality of the Hou Jin Army, so he ignored this factor intentionally or unintentionally.The other party did not see the proper safety signal from the visual distance, so they stopped in the snowy field and waited and watched.
After Morgan figured out this link, he immediately ordered to prepare to fire.He originally wanted to put the opponent in a closer place before attacking, but since the opening has been exposed, the opponent will probably not take the initiative to enter within the range that he is most sure of.
There are two roads ahead of the Houjin patrol team outside the mountain. One is to divide the troops and send people to the camp on the mountain to check the situation, and the other is to turn around and leave here immediately to return to the command.But the latter is obviously unscientific. If you escape without knowing the situation, it will definitely be difficult to explain to your boss after you go back.So soon I saw two infantrymen splitting out of the team, and approaching the camp quickly.
Morgan noticed that the three cavalry had slowly dispersed, and they seemed ready to abandon the infantry and retreat at any time.But this is not surprising in the post-golden army. After all, their arms are divided into high and low status. These infantry without mounts are obviously inferior arms, and they are naturally the most likely to be used as cannon fodder in battle.
Morgan knew that there was no time to delay. When the two infantry came up the mountain, even if they killed them silently, the three cavalry would definitely turn around and run away if the Houjin army outside the mountain found out that the situation was wrong.He put his eyes in front of the scope, silently aimed at the upper body of the rider farthest away, then held his breath and concentrated on adjusting his breathing, and pulled the trigger with an extremely light and quick movement.
Immediately after a bang, the rider was shot, and before the companion around him woke up, gunfire rang out in the forest one after another, and more than ten bullets flew out from the forest, hitting him from top to bottom. These few enemies on the snowy field without cover.In just one breath, this round of attack has already knocked down eight people, leaving only one step and one step to stand stunned among the fallen companions.And the two infantrymen who were about to reach the foot of the mountain were even more unclear. They heard gunshots coming from the mountain, and when they looked back, most of their companions had fallen down.At this time, should we rush to the mountain where countless enemies are ambushed, or should we turn around and run to the plain?
Morgan ignored the two golden soldiers at the foot of the mountain, but immediately loaded the second bullet, aimed at the last cavalry who had turned around and was about to flee, and pulled the trigger again.After the cavalryman was shot, he fell on the horse's back and didn't know whether he was dead or alive, but the horse had already galloped out.The other infantryman was even more miserable. He hadn't considered whether to follow or try to hide. The second round of shooting had already come. He was hit by at least four or five bullets at the same time, and he almost fell to the ground. He was dead at the same time, more quickly than his companions who fell in the first round of shooting.
"Horse shooting!" Morgan roared.
Everyone quickly reloaded, and then aimed at the horse that was running to the distance with the shot cavalry, and fired.It was just a short delay in the middle, the speed of the horse had already increased, and the slightly chaotic third round of shooting accidentally missed the horse, and even Morgan himself fired a blank shot. .
