The new legion is stationed in a large house in the west of the city. This is an abandoned house. The original owner died on the way back to the county town half a month ago. He was hit by a stray bullet and died of frustration.
Because he was alone with no relatives or friends, Zhang Yuntian wanted to acquire this courtyard and use it as a base for the new army.
It was midnight, and most of the people in the new regiment had gone to sleep. Only a few people on duty were still patrolling and vigilant seriously.
Suddenly, groups of soldiers from the 51st Division rushed out from the alleys in all directions, and instantly surrounded the new regiment.
The sound of chaotic footsteps and chaotic noises filled the area around the camp in an instant!
In the headquarters of the new legion, Zhang Yuntian was sitting at the table looking at the map. Sun Jianping stood solemnly next to him, as tall and straight as a javelin. His eyes were slightly closed but there was a fascinating cold light in his eyes.
He has been Zhang Yuntian's guard captain for more than ten years. Several times, Zhang Yuntian wanted to assign him to a subordinate position, so that he would have the opportunity to be promoted and gain greater development space in the future, but in the end he refused.
For him, who was adopted by Zhang Yuntian since childhood, Zhang Yuntian is like his father, and protecting his safety is his biggest task.
After mentioning it several times and seeing that Sun Jianping insisted, Zhang Yuntian gave up and Sun Jianping continued to be the captain of the guard.
The noise outside the door made Sun Jianping frown. He didn't know what happened, so he turned and walked towards the door. After taking two steps, he was stopped by Zhang Yuntian, "Jianping, come back."
"Commander, I'm going to see what's going on. I'll be here soon." Sun Jianping stopped and stood there and explained that he was worried about the outside world, so he wanted to go and take a look.
However, Zhang Yuntian smiled slightly, clicked on the map with the red and blue pencil in his hand, and said without raising his head, "No need to go out, you will know what happened soon."
Although he was full of doubts, since Zhang Yuntian said he would not be allowed to go out, he did not insist, but walked back, still guarding Zhang Yuntian quietly.
Zhang Yuntian didn't seem to be affected by the noise outside at all. He was immersed in the deduction of the war, constantly calculating and drawing symbols on the map.
At this time, the noise outside became louder and louder, and eventually it turned into a commotion, and someone could even be heard shouting angrily.
Sun Jianping's expression became solemn. He had a premonition that something had happened, so he reached out and pulled out the shell gun, and ducked to the window to look outside.
The courtyard was full of people, including people from the New Army and people wearing the uniforms of the 51st Division. The two sides were facing each other at the entrance of the courtyard, arguing loudly.
Looking from a distance, one side is the unarmed New Legion, and the other side is the soldiers of the 51st Division with loaded weapons and ammunition. The strength and weakness can be seen immediately.
Sun Jianping's brows knitted into a knot. He didn't know what the people from the 51st Division were doing here. They were armed with weapons and full of murderous intent. Could they be rebelling?
In any case, Zhang Yuntian is still nominally the commander of the group army and the boss of these troops. Killing him blatantly is considered rebellion.
By then, even Chen Hanlin, who is the Vice Minister of Finance, will have trouble talking.
Although he estimated that it was unlikely that the other party would kill someone brazenly, Sun Jianping still waved his hand to call over the guard soldiers on duty, and then dialed the number of the guard station.
After ordering the guards to rush to rescue immediately, Sun Jianping put down the phone and continued to pay attention to what was going on outside.
On the two small buildings opposite and on both sides of the new army headquarters, three snipers were lying there, their rifle scopes pointed at the door of the headquarters, waiting silently.
The target they were waiting for this time was not Zhang Yuntian, but the guard captain beside him.
The person who arranged them was not Chen Hanlin, but the boy who had a gun pointed at his head by Sun Jianping during the day.
An adult was lost during the day, so the boy was very angry. When he learned about this operation, he secretly sent three snipers and asked them to find opportunities to kill Sun Jianping. He was so angry.
Zhang Yuntian was the commander of the group army and could not be moved, but Sun Jianping was just a guard captain and adjutant beside him, that is, a small second lieutenant. If he died, he would die. The superiors would not go to war for such a small person.
Because of this, this boy dared to do this!
These three boys are already his best snipers. They are equipped with Springfield sniper rifles and are equipped with 2.5x optical sights, which have relatively high accuracy.
Springfield sniper rifle, perhaps this is the most easily misunderstood name of the gun. It looks like a Japanese name, but in fact it is produced by the Springfield Arsenal in the United States and has nothing to do with Japan. Japan's Murata rifle.
There are many derivative models of the Springfield rifle. Among them, the m1903a1 has a special straight-line rear stock. It has been widely used by the US military before the emergence of the m1 rifle, and was used in the early days of World War II.
The m1903a2 is considered a light rifle and is used by artillery units. The m1903a3 is improved to be more streamlined and uses a pistol grip butt. Among the various retractable models, the most well-known is the m1903a4 sniper type.
The m1903a4 is a sniper version developed and improved from the m1903a3 during World War II. It is coupled with the m73 or m73b 12.2x sniper scope. The accuracy of shooting made this gun widely trusted until it was replaced by the m1c and m1d.
During the Battle of Normandy, the Springfield rifle was used as the main sniper weapon; most infantrymen preferred semi-automatic and fully automatic weapons to single-shot operation, but the Springfield rifle had the advantage of accuracy and was superior to other weapons such as the M1 Garand semi-automatic rifle.
, which cannot be provided by the M1 carbine and Browning automatic rifle. In the Pacific battlefield, the US military used this gun to deal with Japanese snipers and achieved good results.
Although these guys were still using early Springfield sniper rifles, they were considered relatively advanced at the time.
The three guys were covered with camouflage nets, holding sniper rifles in their hands, staring unblinkingly at the two closed doors opposite, waiting for the target to appear.
The yard has become a mess. The soldiers of the New Legion and the 51st Division are facing each other. If they are not careful, a fight will break out. When the time comes, the 51st Division, who has received the order to shoot, will probably turn this fight into a massacre.
.
The outcome of the battle between the heavily armed troops and the unarmed militia can be imagined, not to mention that the 51st Division is considered to have relatively strong combat effectiveness among the Shanxi-Sui Army.
Because of this, the three snipers believed that Zhang Yuntian would definitely come out, and only he could temporarily suppress the upcoming dispute.
As soon as Zhang Yuntian appears, Sun Jianping will definitely come out. When the time comes, he will be under the sight of the sniper with no blind spot, and he will have no other choice but to have his head smashed.
The most important thing for a sniper is patience, so the three of them waited patiently. They waited for the moment the door opened and the man who looked as cold as a thousand years of ice came out.
Time passed by, and the quarrel in the yard had escalated. Just like if a spark fell on the dry firewood, flames would rise, but the door was still closed.
No sign of opening.
The three snipers were also a little anxious, breathing faster than usual, and the muscles in their fingers tightened and relaxed, releasing their inner bad emotions.
At this moment, the door of the house creaked and someone opened it from the inside, and then Zhang Yuntian's tall body walked out, with the rank of lieutenant general on his body radiating dazzlingly under the light of the torch in the yard.
The courtyard fell silent for a moment, and everyone turned their heads to look at the stubborn old man.
Behind him, Sun Jianping strode out with his pistol in his holster, his arms hanging casually by his side, and beside him were several guards.
"The opportunity has come!"
The three snipers' eyes lit up. This was the opportunity they had been waiting for, but they didn't expect it to finally come.
The three people quickly got close to the sniper scope and locked onto Sun Jianping's vital points from behind. The three people had divided their duties in advance and aimed at Sun Jianping's eyebrows, heart and other vital points respectively, and killed him with one strike.
Zhang Yuntian came down from the steps and walked toward the people gathered at the entrance of the courtyard. Sun Jianping followed him closely, seeming to protect his safety.
The muzzles of the three snipers all moved with Sun Jianping's movement, looking for opportunities to take action. However, due to the obstruction of Zhang Yuntian's body and Sun Jianping's fast and slow traveling speed, these three guys had troubles several times.
If there is a misjudgment, the planned sniper plan can only be abandoned.
It was only a dozen steps from the entrance of the headquarters to the gate. Zhang Yuntian and Sun Jianping quickly arrived at the gate and stood between the soldiers of the New Legion and the 51st Division, seemingly talking about something.
"Granny, are these guys here to help, or are they here to cause trouble?" Looking at the 51st Division soldiers in the sniper scope who kept swinging around to block his shooting opportunities, the sniper was going crazy.
The first time he discovered a flaw and was about to kill Sun Jianping with one shot, several guys from the 51st Division had already moved in front and covered Sun Jianping in the muzzle of the gun.
I kept looking for opportunities and finally found one where no one was around Sun Jianping.
"Good opportunity!"
The three snipers all looked solemn. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Zhang Yuntian said something to Sun Jianping, and then Sun Jianping turned around and walked back, as if he wanted to get something from the house.
In this way, Sun Jianping escaped from the crowd and Zhang Yuntian's cover, and was exposed to the muzzles of three snipers.
After steadying their heartbeats, the three snipers turned their muzzles and locked onto Sun Jianping, who was about to walk out of the crowd. They also inserted their fingers into the trigger hole and lightly pressed against the trigger.
As long as Sun Jianping walked out of the crowd and climbed the steps, the three muzzles waiting there would instantly blow his mind.
