"Are you going to send out planes to find those heavy artillery positions?" After walking out of Zhao Yu's room, Zhao Zheng looked at Zhao Feng, the "royal clan member" he didn't even know in the past: "It's probably a 250-meter cannon. I've seen it before."
Zhao Feng shook his head and explained: "The airport is no longer safe. Most of the planes have been moved to the airport further south. According to the plan, Fengjiang will soon become a battlefield."
"The Tang Empire plans to build a bridge at Zangjian Gorge?" Zhao Zheng expressed his speculation and asked tentatively.
"It's not a secret, it's true. It doesn't matter if we lose Fengjiang, anyway, in a few months, the road over the Zangjian Gorge will be open." Zhao Feng mentioned this, with pride written all over his face. He didn't need to pretend,
He was indeed working for the Tang Empire.
As expected, Zhao Zheng looked envious and continued to ask: "But there is no way to build a bridge in Zangjian Gorge. Could it be that the Tang Empire has any special method?"
"I don't know about this. It's all about technology. How do I know? I only know that Fengjiang doesn't need to invest any more force in counterattack." Zhao Feng shook his head and said, "I guess, if there is another
In ten days, their 150 cannons will be able to hit Fengjiang."
He really didn't know how to build the bridge at Zangjian Gorge. The canyon was so big that there was almost no way to build bridge piers, so for so many years, the Great China Empire itself had not built a bridge to connect to Zangjian Gorge.
This is also the reason why the Tang Empire advanced to the Zangjian Gorge and then stopped: this place was indeed a natural danger, and it seemed very appropriate to serve as the border between the two countries at the time.
But now, with the development of time and the prosperity of the economy, this canyon is obviously not suitable to continue to exist. After seeing all kinds of bridges built by the infrastructure madman, Tang Mo casually gave some pointers, Datang
The empire's bridge-building level has naturally improved by leaps and bounds.
Therefore, there was the plan to build a bridge at Zangjian Gorge, and the plan to use Fengjiang as a bait and a battlefield to consume the Dahua army here.
"What about us? Are we really going to Shanping?" Zhao Zheng was a little worried again. He was worried that he would be abandoned in the end.
"It's okay. Even if the bridge over the Zangjian Gorge cannot be repaired, we can still find a way to get to Datang." After comforting him, Zhao Feng ended the topic.
He looked down on Zhao Zheng a little. Although Zhao Zheng's status in the Great China Empire was indeed much higher than that of Zhao Feng, Zhao Feng was now from the Great Tang Empire.
Therefore, Zhao Feng has a sense of superiority towards country people like Zhao Zheng who have never even seen a helicopter. This feeling will appear immediately after he acquiesces that he is from the Tang Dynasty...
With Zhao Feng's guarantee, Zhao Zheng felt a lot more comfortable - he had been completely ignored now, and what he feared most was that he would no longer be of use and would be abandoned.
You know, his family is still traveling from Shu to Chu, so he can't help but be nervous at this time.
…
In the messy position of Dahua troops, a man with a rifle on his back has sharp eyes. He is the sniper who has just arrived at the front line and is here to hunt the snipers of Fengjiang troops.
His rifle is very special, with a short optical sight on it: compared with the eight-power scope made by the Tang Empire, this thing is indeed not long.
Because it is fixed on the gun body and does not have any adjustment parts, it does not require special protection.
"I heard that your place has been attacked by snipers?" Standing in the relatively hidden temporary command post, the man asked in a slightly hoarse voice the company commander who was sitting there counting supplies.
The company commander raised his head, glanced at the other party, and replied: "Yes, one of our platoon leaders was killed, and there were two other soldiers."
"Is there any position of suspicion?" the sniper asked.
"Yes! It's probably near that small highland. Another suspicious place is an abandoned trench over there." The company commander pulled out a piece of paper from the table with a hand-drawn map on it. He pointed to it simply
He said a few words and introduced the situation.
"Hasn't there been any shelling?" the sniper asked curiously. The three people on the other side had been dead for several days. Even if they applied for shelling, those places had already been covered by artillery fire, right?
The company commander sneered and replied: "I applied, but there is no artillery support there yet. A platoon leader and two soldiers are probably worthless, right?"
The artillery shells of the Dahua Empire are actually relatively valuable. After advancing more than 100 kilometers eastward from Hezhe, the number of artillery shells that can be transported to the front line has never been large.
This also includes the artillery shells consumed to support the attack. After all, attacking Fengjiang seems to be a more worthy choice to invest more artillery shells than catching a few snipers.
The sniper didn't say much nonsense, carefully picked up the sketch and studied the position on it.
After a while, he asked the company commander who was still busy: "Can you mark the specific locations of the three dead people? I need an accurate judgment."
"Yes! Probably here, and here, and here... three people." The company commander outlined the location of the trenches on the map, and then marked three crosses on it: "The opening of the position at that time..."
"You are a good company commander." Seeing that the location marked by the other party was very clear and his speech was very organized, the sniper praised him.
"Thank you!" The company commander put down his work and said, "Would you like me to take you to those two places? Maybe you will have a different opinion?"
"That's really great." The sniper thanked him quickly, and then followed the company commander to the place where the three people had the accident.
Frankly speaking, after seeing the trench destroyed by artillery fire, the sniper felt that the three people died unjustly: the terrain here is not conducive to concealment, it is very open, and stopping here is simply inviting the sniper to shoot and explode.
Got his own head off.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "How was it?" The company commander did not dare to show his head, standing at the end of the destroyed trench, leaning against the wall of the pit, and asked back.
"I want to stay here. If anything happens to you, you can go back." The sniper said, leaning on the other side of the bunker.
The company commander nodded slightly, and then walked away along the way back. Only one sniper was left, who took off his weapon and began to compare carefully.
He agreed with the company commander's judgment that the opponent was probably hiding near the small slope in the distance, but from the angle, it was not easy to tell whether he was hiding above or below.
As for the other hiding place, he had seen it when he first arrived, and it was also an excellent hiding place. However, he felt that if it were him, he would prefer to choose a mound with a wider view.
Snipers hunt each other, and the process is almost the same as hunting. It requires patient waiting and a little bit of luck.
After roughly determining the opponent's position, the sniper from the Dahua Empire set up a simple "position" on the spot.
He used his raincoat to build a small hiding place, covered it with some soil, and camouflaged it, thus obtaining a better shooting angle.
Then, he lay down under his raincoat and waited patiently for the target to bite the bait he had set: he used a steel helmet to set up a dummy, trying to attract the other party to fire first and expose his position.
Of course, if you stare at the dummy carefully for a while, you will know that it is a dummy. If the opponent insists on not shooting, there is nothing the Dahua sniper can do.
Is it really possible to find a living person to use as bait? Who would be willing to use this bait? This is not a movie. What idiot is willing to sacrifice himself to help a sniper find the enemy's location?
Sure enough, after a day of crouching patiently, the Dahua sniper did not wait for the target he wanted to find.
He returned to the camp controlled by his own army, had something to eat, and then fell asleep listening to the rumble of artillery in the evening.
Early the next morning, he heard two things. The first thing was that after a day and night of hard work, the troops of the Dahua Empire had advanced another 500 meters! The other thing was that the company he went to yesterday,
This morning another soldier was killed by an enemy sniper while he was washing.
The other party was very professional and only fired one shot. The soldier who had just woken up and was about to clean up his beard was shot through his head.
This meant that the opponent's sniper had not left at all, so several nearby Dahua Empire snipers began another day of investigation.
Since the previous three corpses had been disposed of long ago, the Dahua Empire's snipers did not see the corpses of these people.
Now, there was a new body, so the sniper rushed over to see the fresh body.
From the angle of the bullet's attack, he roughly determined the opponent's position. Then he brought his rifle to a suitable position and lurked again.
In the afternoon, the lurking Dahua Empire sniper saw a bunch of weeds in the distance seem to move, so he focused his attention on that grass.
Soon, he looked through the scope and saw a scope hidden behind the grass: the opponent was very hidden, and it was impossible to find it without searching carefully.
What's even more interesting is that this opponent deliberately chose to be a little lower on the hill. Although this lost part of the field of vision, it increased concealment.
"Goodbye! Idiot!" Through the scope, the target was already set on the crosshairs, and the sniper from the Dahua Empire pulled the trigger.
"Bang!" A clear gunshot echoed in the sky. The hidden sniper in the distance was hit. Through the scope, you could clearly see blood splashing from the grass.
The enemy's sniper rifle also fell down and fell out of the grass.
