The reinforcements were used to fill other vacancies, which was not the most annoying thing to Zhao Chen. Those elusive snipers from the Tang Empire in Fengjiang also kept Zhao Chen awake at night recently.
The losses of the Dahua Empire's sniper troops have increased significantly. The Dahua snipers who had even had a slight advantage in the battle with Fengjiang's snipers have been dying one after another recently.
Almost everyone knows that snipers from the Tang Empire participated in the war, but until now they have no evidence.
If the opponent is in multi-person action, even if he is injured or killed in battle, the body will be disposed of by his companions. And most of the time, the opponent is taking advantage of their weapons and equipment to abuse them, and the snipers of the Dahua Empire are no match at all.
The snipers of the Tang Empire had long-range weapons, better camouflage, and other equipment more suitable for sniper combat, as if the person who designed these equipment was a super sniper.
In more than a month, the death rate of snipers from the Dahua Empire who went to the front lines to perform hunting missions exceeded 80%. In other words, out of about five people who went on the mission, only one could come back alive.
The heavy losses are actually only half the reason. The other half is the difficulty of replenishment: most of the snipers in the Dahua Empire are old hunters or nobles who love shooting.
Such talents are already very few, so it is even more difficult to replenish them. As a result, the sniper troops of the Dahua Empire have to look for veterans with good marksmanship in ordinary troops.
Although these veterans are good at marksmanship, they are at best precision shooters. Such shooters are not fully qualified for the sniper mission.
The losses were difficult to replenish, and the replacement manpower was not suitable for use, which resulted in the Great China Empire's sniper force becoming smaller and smaller, and its combat capability becoming lower and lower.
In the end, Zhao Chen, who could not bear the losses, had to stop the sniper operation that he had been very optimistic about before. This seemingly effective tactic was suspended because he could not replenish enough snipers in a short time.
This marked the complete bankruptcy of Dahua Empire's sniper confrontation tactics, and there were no longer a large number of Dahua Empire snipers on the front lines.
…
In an inconspicuous corner among the ruins full of rubble, Cao Fei looked through the gap at the resting Dahua army in the distance.
They had just launched an attack and captured a high ground made of rubble. The environment here was very chaotic, and there were buildings not far away with thick smoke rising.
Through the gap where Cao Fei was hiding, he could clearly see these Dahua soldiers who were resting. They were resting with their weapons in hand, and a platoon leader was distributing remaining ammunition.
In fact, the battle has always been intermittent, and there are always only a few large-scale offensive scenes. These troops who are torn to pieces in the ruins by the terrain and attack routes, most of the time even have difficulty supplying ammunition.
Reality and movies present completely different scenes. In real street fighting, the test is the flexibility and organization of the troops.
At this time, the test for commanders and even ordinary soldiers is huge: where are you, where are your troops, where are the supplies... and the more critical question, where are your enemies.
The ammunition you carry may be used up in one attack, but the new position you occupy is actually still threatened by the enemy's line of fire from your own main position. How to obtain ammunition supplies is often an unsolvable problem.
Therefore, many times, buildings or blocks that sacrifice dozens or even hundreds of people in street battles have to be given to the opponent. This repeated occurrence has become the reason for heavy casualties in street battles.
Different from field positions, every direction and angle here is cut off by ruined buildings. Attacks can come from any direction, and most of the time the position you build will not give you any safety at all.
That's how it is now.
From Cao Fei's perspective, the seemingly hidden Dahua troops didn't even have a bunker. They were lying in the crater to rest, smoking or eating dry food. They were all very relaxed and not alert at all.
At this moment, Cao Fei's gun is facing them. If he wants, he can empty his magazine one bullet at a time, and then leave calmly.
No one would see him, because the ambush location he chose was very clever. In other words, even if he was discovered, there would be no enemy to fight back. The angle was too small, and no one could put a bullet into the gap.
"Seven people! One of them is the platoon leader." The observer said from behind another gap not far away, observing the Dahua soldiers.
"I saw it!" Cao Fei seemed not to be ready to shoot, and replied calmly: "I aimed at the platoon leader."
"It's up to you to decide whether to fire or not." The wound on his arm had healed a lot, and the observer said equally indifferently.
With only 7 people, it was obviously not necessary to call for artillery support. They could deal with these defenseless targets by themselves, and the opponent would not even be able to find the direction of the bullet's attack until they died.
"Bang!" Cao Fei still pulled the trigger. The bullet passed through the space and hit the head of the Dahua platoon leader. Blood spattered on the face of a Dahua soldier next to him. The other person watched helplessly as he was still alive just now.
Living life ends before your eyes.
Pulling the bolt of the gun, Cao Fei quickly pointed the gun at the body of another Dahua soldier in the distance who had not realized what was happening.
"Bang!" The sound of the second shot echoed between the buildings and was interspersed with the sound of cannons in the distance. It was crisp and loud, leaving endless aftertaste.
The soldier holding the rifle was shot in the chest. He shivered and wanted to get up but he no longer had the ability. Blood stained his chest. The soldiers around him got up in panic and immediately went to find a bunker.
Unfortunately, he didn't even know which direction the gunfire came from, so he just casually fell to the ground, becoming another perfect target.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Bang!" The third shot rang out, and a soldier who had just gotten up from the ground fell down next to the lying Dahua soldier.
It was only at this time that one of the remaining four Dahua soldiers shouted the word "sniper" and started running around.
Among the remaining Dahua soldiers, one was shot dead by Cao Fei when he climbed to the edge of the crater. The other soldier was helpless and rolled back to the bottom of the crater because he was too frightened. Another one jumped into another
In the crater, Cao Fei shot him down before he could stand firm.
The Dahua soldier who was lying on the spot thought that his body was blocked by the corpse and was not discovered, so he was still lying on the spot.
The Dahua soldier who fell back to the bottom of the pit struggled to climb up. Halfway up, he was shot by Cao Fei and stopped there without any movement.
At this time, Cao Fei looked through the scope and pointed the crosshair of the scope at the coward who had been lying on the ground.
He pulled the trigger and fired the seventh shot. The bullet penetrated the body of the Dahua soldier, keeping him lying down forever.
"Seven! None of them escaped! Amazing!" The observer saw all this with a telescope and couldn't help but sigh.
He had always felt that Cao Fei's sniping skills were very high, and this time he had the capital to brag: one shot at a time, every bullet was missed, and he killed seven enemies with seven shots!
Until their death, these Dahua soldiers who were shot did not find out where Cao Fei was, and they had no intention of fighting back from the beginning to the end. They just ran and fled, and then were killed one by one by hunters like prey.
"Let's go! Go back." Cao Fei packed up his weapons, carefully retreated to a safe location, and grabbed his backpack.
The observer also carried his belongings: "Today is our last mission in Fengjiang. Do you want to throw a grenade to celebrate?"
"If the sky is crazy, it will rain, and if people are crazy, disaster will happen..." Cao Fei glanced at the happy observer and reminded him.
"It's a joke! But I haven't seen Dahua's sniper recently." The observer remembered the enemy who had a battle of wits with them near the factory building that day, and couldn't help but feel nostalgic.
Later, the people they met were all rookies, and basically they didn't cause any trouble to them. The opponent was as upright as a child, lying motionless in the decoy position and acting as a target. He didn't know that he had been exposed to the enemy until he died.
At gunpoint.
Recently... they haven't even encountered such fools. The other party seems to have given up on similar combat methods. No matter how provocative Cao Fei and the others are, the other party's snipers just don't show up.
As time goes by, Cao Fei and the others are about to return home to rest: after all, the opportunities are limited, and they must let the snipers from other units have fun...
"Don't let down your guard. The best respect for the enemy is to kill him and make up for it with a shot!" Cao Fei picked up his backpack, lowered his body and walked out of the hiding place: "The best celebration is to go back alive and find a place to eat.
OK."
"You're right." The observer felt that Cao Fei had a maturity that was not consistent with his age. In other words, this was also part of his sniper talent.
After the two of them return, they will be able to receive the "Special Operations Medal" and the "Sniper Elite Medal." These two medals are similar to seniority badges and were established to reward soldiers who fought in places where the battle cannot be clearly stated.
These gadgets are not as practical as the White Blade Medal, but they can obtain further preferential treatment in terms of "salary increase", "tax exemption", etc.
"Have you thought about what to eat tonight?" he asked Cao Fei while walking and looking at his hands.
"Of course, the canteen." Cao Fei replied naturally.
"Huh? Didn't you just say you wanted to have a good meal?" The observer was stunned.
"The canteen is free." Cao Fei answered naturally.

Long Ling vomited something due to what he ate yesterday, and he didn't know what was going on. He's feeling better today. I'll wait for a few more days before I can make adjustments.
