A monocular observation scope slowly stretched out from behind a bush somewhere in a hilly area more than 6 kilometers away from the border of country W. Li Zheng slowly adjusted the magnification and kept observing the movement on a path leading to the border in the distance. .
This path crosses a river, and there is a bridge on the river. The rainy days in the past few days have washed away many bridges with poor quality along the route. This is the only bridge that can cross the river except the original route.
The observation scope in Li Zheng's hand has many names. It was first called a target scope. It was born to quickly search for targets, clearly see the impact point hundreds of meters away, or confirm target information during training and actual combat. It is a traditional low-magnification handheld Binocular telescopes are obviously not up to the task, so observers also need to be equipped with high-magnification precision optical observation equipment that can compete with sniper rifle scopes. Therefore, there is an observation scope dedicated to sniper team observers.
Of course, observation glass is just a general term.
And with the increase in functions, it is no longer just as simple as looking into the distance.
For example, other functions such as distance measurement, ballistic calculation, night vision, etc. will be integrated into an observation scope, making it an observation system.
For example, the bald eagle standard model M151 observation scope Li Zheng currently has has a magnification of 12 to 40 times and an objective lens diameter of 60 mm. The scope body adopts a "Z" shaped prism refraction structure, with the smaller diameter eyepiece on top and the larger diameter eyepiece on the bottom.
Through the mirror bridge and adapter ring with Picatinny rail, this M151 observation scope is equipped with night vision devices and laser pointers, which can meet most needs for night operations.
The path Li is currently observing is the planned backup route.
Compared to the route Tong Zhi and the others took, it was five kilometers longer, so it was not the first choice.
Man's calculation is not as good as God's calculation.
Tong Zhi and others evacuated, and Li Zheng and Bai Aote's team were responsible for breaking up the rear. They should have evacuated quickly after the fight to rendezvous, but during the operation, in order to cover the assault team, Li Zheng switched to a dangerous sniper point, resulting in that he had not had time to evacuate. They were shelled, Bai Aote was injured, and Li Zheng was so shocked that he fainted for several minutes before he woke up.
This delay directly cut off the two men's retreat.
This is also the reason why alternate routes are now being activated.
Li Zheng's actual combat experience is not rich. Fortunately, he is highly educated and smart. In addition, he is born with a calm personality, so he can remain calm even if he is deep in enemy territory.
This path is a relatively flat path leading to the border of Country W, and it is also in good condition. If it had been placed before, Li Zheng would have led Bai Aote through the hilly area in the photo and rush towards Country W without hesitation.
It's just different now.
The team received extremely accurate artillery fire and saw the quite professional offensive formations of the ADF armed organization militia. They were also able to accurately send people to set up defenses on the retreat route before they found themselves and Baiot. Various signs showed that , the ADF organization is not a ragtag group with low discipline and low tactical literacy like the KLM local armed forces encountered in country L before.
At least the commander they were responsible for chasing them was definitely not an ordinary person.
Therefore, Li Zheng must be more careful and cannot cross the bridge rashly.
Because you use yourself to save others, you are the commander. You have to send people to defend such a key location no matter what.
Bai Aote was just behind him, and the heavy rain made him look very embarrassed. He took advantage of Li Zheng's time to observe the enemy's situation and re-treated the wound himself.
Because on the way to escape, you not only run, but sometimes you also have to crawl and roll. Anyway, there are some places that you cannot easily cross if you want to walk upright on two legs.
Baiot, who had an injury on his hand, suffered a lot for this.
Due to the hasty evacuation, Li Zheng only used a tourniquet to help him with the blood vessels above the wound. The bleeding stopped, but the wound had not been treated yet.
Now, Baiot had to pull out the individual first aid kit from his tactical vest and perform simple wound treatment on the spot.
"Damn it!"
As the camouflage uniform near the wound was cut open, Baiot saw the wound on his left arm. Although a tourniquet was applied and the bleeding stopped, there was still a little sticky blood seeping out.
The tourniquet is a hemostatic device used in emergencies, but it must be loosened every half hour, otherwise the arm will become necrotic and eventually lose your arm.
Therefore, if the wound can be stopped bleeding with drugs, then use drugs, and tourniquets are only an emergency option.
Baiot looked at the bloody bullet hole on his arm and felt like reaching in to see if the bullet was still inside.
Finally, he resisted the urge, picked up an XStat syringe, and injected the sponge-like hemostatic tablet inside directly into the wound.
Those white pill-like things are actually cellulose sponge pieces. Each sponge piece is 9.8 mm wide and 4 to 5 mm high. It can absorb 3 ml of blood or body fluid. There are 92 sponge pieces in each syringe. It is coated with a hemostatic agent that can quickly expand to block the wound when it encounters body fluids. The sponge contains a chemical called chitosan.
Chitosan has the functions of coagulation and disinfection, and can also expand its size 4 times in a few seconds, immediately sealing the wound and stopping blood loss.
This first-aid drug can stop heavy bleeding and buy the injured at least four hours.
After injecting the hemostatic tablets, Bai Aote tried to bandage the wound himself, but he couldn't bandage it properly after one hand was injured, so he had no choice but to ask Li Zheng for help.
"Hey! Lee! Can you help me?"
He begged softly, and then gestured towards his wound.
"If I don't take care of my arm, I'm afraid I'll become disabled when I go back."
Li Zheng set up the observation glasses and then turned around to bandage him.
While bandaging, he said, "When was it? Didn't you see me observing the situation in front?"
Baiot said: "Observation cannot be seen clearly in a short time. You can wait, but my arm cannot wait. A few years ago, I encountered an accident when a small team of DG and I were on a mission in Central Asia. As a result, he was trapped in the wild for several days. It was hot at that time, and he was hit by an AK47 bullet in one of his arms, which made a big hole. He didn't take care of it carefully, and maggots grew in it in the end..."
After finishing speaking, he looked up at Li Zheng: "Have you ever seen the maggots on the wound? Those things are interesting. The guy told me that he even wanted to get them off and eat them. After all, they are things cultivated in his own body. …”
Li Zheng said: "I didn't expect you guys to be so harsh."
Baiot said: "I don't think there is any problem. If it is based on food standards, do you know what it is?"
Li Zheng said while bandaging him: "Protein."
Bai Aote was very surprised: "Have you eaten it?"
Li Zheng said: "I have eaten a lot of messy things, including some strange bugs."
Bai Aote originally wanted to disgust this PLA special forces soldier. After all, he knew that Li Zheng's military service would not last forever.
As a veteran, showing off in front of new recruits is a must.
Unexpectedly, Li Zheng was not surprised at all.
When it came, Li Zheng tightened the bandage hard, causing Baiot to grin in pain.
"Okay! I'm going to keep an eye on the situation."
After saying that, he turned around and lay down in front of the observation mirror.
Baiot looked at the bandage on his arm and smiled with satisfaction.
It seems that PLA's craftsmanship is good.
After his hand was bandaged, Bai Aote even felt that it didn't hurt so much, so he started nagging again: "Actually, we can just find a place to hide. I also have a laser pointer on my body. I can shoot it into the sky every once in a while. People have the opportunity to see laser light..."
Li Zheng couldn't help but ask him: "Have you tried it before?"
Baiot said: "I tried it twice."
Li Zheng said: "You always said that your drone can see us. I want to ask, if it really saw us, why didn't your captain send someone to respond when we are so close to the border now?"
Baiot was stunned.
He had never thought about this problem before.
I thought it was because of the rain or some other reason that Captain Mist and his people didn't get here in time.
He raised his wrist and looked at the time.
Two hours have passed since they evacuated point C and took an alternative route.
Ordinarily...
It should be here.
Li Zheng suddenly said: "Maybe your drone was shot down..."
"Impossible!" Baiot immediately retorted: "Absolutely impossible! Just rely on the air defense power here to shoot down our MQ-9? Just dream!"
Li Zheng said: "Then how do you explain that no one has come to pick us up after so long?"
Bai Aote was speechless.
Suddenly, he remembered something.
"It's airtime! The drone's airtime is up!"
Others immediately became depressed.
"Why didn't I think of this all of a sudden..."
Baiot walked into the grass, thought about it carefully, and then smiled: "It will take at least three hours to resend the drone here, but we have already passed three and a half hours, even if we are found After the disappearance, it took an hour to contact the superiors, which means that the new drone will arrive here in two hours at most, and it will take another hour at most to search for our laser signal...it's okay!"
At this point, he suddenly became excited.
"Li, we will only be here for three hours at most before someone comes to rescue us, and I am very sure! I suggest not to risk going to the border police, just stay here and wait!"
Li Zheng suddenly felt that this was the case.
It is indeed a trap to break through the blockade alone with a wounded person.
Then it's really better to sit back and wait here.
He just wanted to discuss with Bai Aote about finding a place to hide.
Suddenly, a bullet passed over his scalp and hit the tree trunk nearby, making a snapping sound.
"Enemy attack!"
Without saying a word, he picked up the observation glass with one hand and held Baiot with the other, and the two of them rolled down the hillside.
Asking for a monthly ticket! Asking for a monthly ticket!
