When the gunshot rang out, Xie Tian didn't feel the slightest danger, let alone any time and space confusion. He knew that the person who fired the shot was definitely not targeting him.
Xie Tian carelessly patted the shoulder of Zhao Gang who was blocking him. The conditioned body reaction can best express his heart. He knew that at the critical moment, Zhao Gang would definitely step forward to block the bullet for him like he did now. These people around him This will always be the case.
Don’t say anything, just keep it in mind.
Thank God, there are also people who can protect them with their lives. Everyone has them, but some people can't express them.
At this time, a guard who went to check the situation came back and reported: "Report to the Commander-in-Chief, it is the sharpshooter Lei Bing of the Langya Brigade who is sniping the Japanese and has killed four."
Xie Tian glanced at the other side, which was at least 800 meters away, and said with a smile: "Oh, I didn't expect our Langya Brigade to have such a powerful sharpshooter. Let's go and have a look."
Hitting the target at a distance of 800 meters is not something that ordinary sharpshooters can do. Only professionally trained snipers at this distance can hit the target, and they must have observers to assist.
There are many sharpshooters in the People's Liberation Army. Basically, they are all native-born and have not received systematic training. However, the general shooting distance is between one and two hundred meters.
At a distance of eight hundred meters, people with poor eyesight would not be able to see the target clearly, let alone hit the target.
Several people walked towards the direction of the gunfire. Xie Tian turned to look at Zhao Gang and said, "Old Zhao, I heard that your marksmanship is also good."
Zhao Gang smiled and waved his hand: "I can't do anything right now. I touched a gun several times when I was receiving training at Yanda University. The instructor said that I had the potential to be a sniper, but the most lacking thing in the team at that time was a political instructor. I’ve been busy studying all day, so I’ve put aside the shooting thing. By the way, how did the commander-in-chief know that I can shoot?”
Xie Tian chuckled: "I can't tell you this."
Besides, can you believe me when I tell you that I saw it on TV?
Zhao Gang laughed and said, "It must be Lao Li who is blind. I even fired a few shots in front of him, but he forced me to do so."
It's good to have someone take the blame. Xie Tianyixiao turned to Xiao Qi and asked: "Xiao Qi, how far can you hit the target?"
Xiao Qi scratched his head and felt embarrassed: "I've hit one or two hundred meters with a rifle, but I haven't tried anything farther than that."
Xie Tianyi smiled: "The several sniper rifles we captured have been distributed to the Langya Brigade. You can try them out later. It shouldn't be a big problem to hit the Japanese on the other side with your marksmanship."
Xiao Qi is good at close combat. He can hit targets within a few dozen meters wherever he wants. Long range attack is not his specialty, but he is eager to try it after hearing this.
Several people walked along the trench to the sniper position specially arranged by Lei Bing. Several Langya team members who were joining in the fun saw Xie Tian, Zhao Gang and others coming over and hurriedly took a picture of Lei Bing who was still taking aim and stood up to Xie Tian and others. People salute.
Xie Tian laughed and scolded: "You bastards, are you worried that the Japanese snipers can't find their shooting targets and deliberately salute me on the battlefield? Hurry up and put your hands down for me."
Several Langya team members were startled and hurriedly put down their hands. Zhao Gang said from the side: "I will pass it on later. All officers and soldiers are not allowed to salute when they see their superiors at the forward position."
Xie Tian didn't care about these details. He hummed and looked at Lei Bing, who was holding the Type 97 sniper rifle, and asked, "Are you the sharpshooter Lei Bing of the Langya Brigade?"
Lei Bing responded excitedly and loudly, without saluting.
Xie Tianyi smiled and stretched out his hand towards Lei Bing: "Show me the gun and introduce yourself by the way. Which army did you come from to the Langya Brigade?"
Lei Bing hurriedly handed the gun to Xie Tian. He looked at Xie Tian with a red face and said: "Report to the Commander-in-Chief, I was originally from the Taiyuan Security Brigade of the Pacification Army. When Yangqu was liberated, I surrendered with the brigade commander Bai Jiaoren. People's Liberation Army, because I knew some mechanical maintenance, I was assigned to Commander Li's Armored Infantry Regiment, and after the Battle of Yangquan, Commander Li recommended me to join the Langya Brigade."
Xie Tian lowered his head and fiddled with the Type 97 sniper rifle. After Lei Bing finished introducing himself, he looked up at Lei Bing and asked, "How many Japanese have been killed?"
Lei Bing puffed up his chest and said: "Since joining the People's Liberation Army, I have killed a total of 117 Japanese."
A smile appeared on Xie Tian's face and he said with a smile: "Oh, that's quite a lot. Old Zhao, soldiers like Lei Bing should publicize more, and I think it's appropriate to give him first-class merit. Old Zhao, you can make arrangements later. The pen bearer at the theater headquarters wrote a special report for Lei Bing and asked them to send it to the Liberation Daily."
Zhao Gang smiled and nodded: "I took note of it."
Xie Tian raised the Type 97 to take aim, handed it back to Lei Bing, and said, "I remember that we seemed to have captured a few 98Ks. The shooting accuracy of that gun should be better than the little devil's Type 97, right?"
Lei Bing took the gun and stood at attention and replied: "The range of the 98K is not as good as the Type 97. I am used to using the Type 97."
Xie Tian nodded: "You're right. The one you're used to is the best for you. Come on, show me how to beat the devil."
Lei Bing responded and climbed up the trench to a sniper position built with old elm trees that had been blown off. Xie Tian followed without hesitation and climbed up beside Lei Bing. He raised his binoculars with both hands to observe the other side of the river.
Four of the Japs and Mengzi soldiers who were catching fish in the river had just been killed by the Lei soldiers and had already dragged their bodies back to their positions. Just now, the dozens of soldiers from the cooking class in the war zone exchanged fire with the Japs. If the Lei soldiers had not fired in time to support them, there would have been many casualties. It will also expand.
Through the telescope, you can see that from time to time there will be figures flashing across the Japs position on the other side of the river. The Japs have also built fortifications and dug trenches on the other side of the river. However, at such a distance, there will always be some careless Japs and puppet soldiers who will expose their hiding places. .
Lei Bing observed through the quadruple lens for a while and asked: "Which one does the commander want to fight?"
Xie Tian's telescope locked onto a Japanese soldier and said, "Did you see that Japanese soldier leaning on the trench smoking a cigarette and basking in the sun? He's pretty damn comfortable. It's just him."
Lei Bing grunted, grabbed a handful of soil in front of him and let it fall slowly along his fist. He freed one eye to stare at the dust to judge the wind strength and direction, and aimed the gun two feet diagonally above and to the left of the Japs head. At the multi-point position, the trigger was pulled with a bang.
When the bullets were fired, Xie Tian saw in the telescope that the Japanese was obviously stunned for a moment, as if he wanted to get up and sneak into the trench. As soon as his body made a slight reaction, a cloud of blood mist had already covered his head, and his whole body was full of blood mist. He fell back and slowly slid back into the trench dragging a trail of blood.
There was a commotion in the trench opposite, and a dense row of gun muzzles poked out from the edge of the trench.
Xie Tian blurted out and praised: "One shot to the head, good marksmanship."
