During the sniper training in the Tiger Brigade, there is a subject called "Camouflage and Stealth", which tests the sniper's understanding of camouflage.
An expert knows the way.
Disguise is not just about wearing a ghillie suit and smearing some oil paint on your face to make yourself look like something from a Hollywood movie. It involves taking into account the equipment you carry and how to carry out different disguises according to different mission areas.
It's just a foam oil paint. It's all very particular about how you apply it on your eyes, how you apply it on your face, how you apply it on recessed areas, and how you apply it on protruding parts.
As for sneaking, it is a science. Not only must you understand it, but you must also practice it. Down to the details of how to crawl, walk, lift your feet, and wade in water, there are a set of strict and scientific requirements, which are all the crystallization of wisdom.
In previous training, snipers were usually required to pass through an open area after camouflaging themselves and make full use of terrain features and vegetation to climb to the sniper position designated by the instructor to be considered qualified.
In the process of sneaking to the sniper point, there will be observers in the distance with binoculars to observe the open area. As long as you are discovered, you will be exposed and you will be disqualified and you will have to be punished all over again.
When Li Zheng conducted this kind of training in the past, he felt very abnormal. It was freezing cold and hot, and a sneaking distance of 800 meters often took four hours to climb. It was fast, absolutely. Exposure; if it is slower, the exposure time is longer, and the chance of being discovered is also increasing.
That's a maddening subject.
But today, Li Zheng felt that the use of the basic knowledge he had learned in the past was definitely not just a matter of meeting the standards, but whether it could save his life.
Before the dark raid, if they were discovered now, not to mention it would be a dead end, at least the team would be very passive, pay a heavy price, and the mission would be completely messed up.
Before departure, instructor No. 5 had conducted a detailed analysis of the mountainous area here through the latest satellite images.
The hiding spot of Li Zheng and Hou Jun was actually not next to the piles of stones, but in a natural depression.
Li Zheng was not interested in finding out where the pit came from, but the soil there was relatively soft and loose, which was very convenient for them to dig a sniper position.
Building a sniper position is actually building a bunker that integrates sniping and observation.
It can often accommodate two people, and if you want to be more standard, it is also divided into an observation area and a sleeping area.
Of course, the duration of this mission is expected to be within two days, so this sniper position is very simple, with no partitions, and the two people can observe and sleep inside.
This kind of position is similar to digging a hole in the ground. It has one entrance and two observation windows to go out. If there are no plants around in this kind of mountaintop terrain, you have to rely on the mats, camouflage nets, etc. you bring to complete it.
The camouflage net they brought this time was not a camouflage net similar to a ghillie suit, but a hard camouflage net made of the same material as a raincoat. It was more like cloth than a net.
Even if the color of the camouflage net can be adjusted to blend in with the environment, the fluffy slivers on it still don't match the surrounding soil. You can see the difference if you look closely.
But the camouflage cloth they brought was different. After covering the camouflage cloth on their small position to block the entrance, Hou Jun also specially made the hard cloth into an angular shape. When viewed from the air, it looked like an exposed rock in the soil.
That's the trick.
In any special sniper operation, sufficient effort must be made before heading to the destination, especially the environment there.
Plants, terrain, temperature, etc.
If you don't do your homework, you will make a mistake. If you don't look at the terrain map before this mission, don't know the environmental conditions there, think there are plants, and bring a jungle camouflage net over, you will die.
Li Zheng could vaguely hear the hissing sound of the drone. The wind was strong on the top of the mountain, and the sound disappeared and appeared.
But he knew that that damn drone was probably circling above his head right now.
If they find themselves and the squad leader, the BLZ soldiers in the valley will soon use mortars and large-caliber machine guns to bombard here - at least they have these weapons, and after many years of guerrilla warfare, these weaklings have no tactical awareness. I don’t dare to say it’s good, but I’m pretty good at using guns and cannons, so don’t underestimate him.
Li Zheng turned his head and glanced at Hou Jun next to him, and made a gesture to him, pointing to the sky.
Because the two of them were underground and could not see the specific situation in the air, Li Zheng was asking Hou Jun why the thing seemed to have stayed here for a while. Could it be that it had discovered a position?
He couldn't help but start to think about every detail of the previous construction of the position, how to dig it, how to deal with the soil, and how to block the entrance after entering.
As long as something is not handled well here, something will happen.
Hou Jun motioned to Li Zheng, telling him not to be nervous. He gently shook his head and told him not to make any noise.
Sometimes, staying calm is the key.
At this time, Ben and Jack in the valley were also a little nervous.
The two of them gathered in front of the computer and stared at the screen.
They didn't dare to miss every frame sent back by the drone.
Especially that box, what is locked in it?
Gotta figure it out!
Ben quickly zoomed in and zoomed in.
The camera focused on a dead tree.
The tree is dead, its trunk fell to the ground, and next to it is the tree stump, which is withered and yellow. It has been dead for a while, maybe it was struck by lightning...
The frame of the drone did not disappear, it was locked on the pile of dead branches.
Ben lowered the drone, getting lower and lower...
Skimming the branches again and again.
Suddenly, a sand cat was frightened by the sound of the drone's propeller. It suddenly jumped out and ran down the hillside, quickly out of the drone's observation range.
"OH! SHIT! Just a fucking cat!"
Ben breathed a sigh of relief.
Jack also breathed a sigh of relief.
No one penetrates better.
If someone has infiltrated at this time, think about your position...
A perfect human target!
The drone flew away.
Li Zhengye and Hou Jun also breathed a sigh of relief.
What follows is a long wait.
Complete radio silence.
Communication between groups is cut off.
No one can doubt the ability of these GRS members, they have the best equipment.
Once the silence is broken, it will probably be discovered soon.
This is an uninhabited mountainous area, and radio signals are sparse. If you suddenly find a strange radio wave, you will know who it belongs to if you think about it with your toes.
Surveillance is a very torturous thing.
The reason why snipers need to train their patience and resilience is to learn how to balance their emotions during a long and boring time.
Li Zheng kept his gun ready.
This modified 85 sniper has been treated by Lao Sun before departure. It is currently khaki in color and has a very good camouflage treatment.
In the scope, Li was staring at Ben and Jack in the valley, as well as several GRS members scattered in warning positions throughout the valley, including those from Country D's intelligence department and BLZ armed soldiers.
He also saw Ben running directly to the stone nearby, where he poured hot urine on the stone.
At that moment, strange thoughts flashed through Li Zheng's mind.
Damn it, if you shoot him in the bladder right now, he'll save time for peeing, and probably for the rest of his life.
One hour……
Two hours...
Three hours……
When the sky just started to darken, a few people walked out of the cave.
"Out."
Li Zheng said softly.
Hou Jun tightened his grip on the observation scope and switched to night vision mode.
"They seem to be leaving."
Li Zheng saw clearly that the people who got out of the two cars later were white people.
A group of people were talking as they approached the vehicle. It was obvious that they wanted to say goodbye!
"What's wrong with the instructors? They still haven't given the order?"
The words have not yet finished.
Suddenly there was a slight sound of electricity in the earphones, and then there was a slight vibration.
This is a signal that the channel is activated again!
Instructor No. 5 must have reactivated the signal!
Then, Li Zheng heard the voice of instructor No. 6 on the channel.
"Attention all groups, take action immediately! Everything will proceed as planned!"
Please give me monthly votes and recommend votes!
You should watch it quickly, don’t say I didn’t warn you!
