The heavens start from Changjin Lake

Chapter 647 The strange death toll

"Then you have to look at me. Do you hear me? You promised me that we must follow Brother Yuan and get out alive."

Zheng Dayong's heart tightened and he looked Zhao Shiguo up and down.

"I'm fine, I'm just tired. Damn it, the Japanese artillery shells were so fierce that they shook my ears." Zhao Shiguo ticked his ears with his little finger and said: "You bastard, hurry up and watch. Wait." The Japanese artillery fire is coming again."

"You come with me!" Zheng Dayong tugged Zhao Shiguo's arm, but saw him grinning as if he had realized something. Zhao Shiguo said hurriedly:
"What are we doing with you? I'm not going to fight the little Japanese devil. I'm just going to watch you fight. You brat, I brought you here. Get out of here."

"You're injured!" Zheng Dayong's expression changed slightly. He grabbed Zhao Shiguo and picked him up. He glanced at Zhao Shiguo's back and his expression suddenly changed.

The clothes on Zhao Shiguo's back were torn, and the flesh and blood were stained with the soil on the wall. The blood formed a muddy mud under his buttocks, and the flesh and skin were torn, piercing Zheng Dayong's eyes.

He immediately grabbed Zhao Shiguo and said, "I will take you to Brother Yuan."

"What are you looking for Xia Yuan? It's okay. Let me down." Zhao Shiguo could clearly feel that his life was draining away. The excessive blood loss made his whole body cold. He was trying to hold on to his still clear consciousness. After being discovered by Zheng Dayong, , suddenly relaxed and gradually became blurry.

"Cold, boy, are you cold?"

"Why is it cold? I'm not cold." Zheng Dayong carried Zhao Shiguo on his back and got out of the machine gun bunker that had been collapsed by Japanese artillery shells. He said, "Old Zhao, you must not die. You promised me that you would take me with you." Let's go out together. If you die, I won't be alive either. I'll go find you."

During this period of getting along, Zheng Dayong has regarded Zhao Shiguo as his closest person, and the two of them were almost inseparable on the battlefield.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Zheng Dayong shouted, asking the soldiers blocking the front to make a way for him.

"Death, I won't die. I promise you, I will definitely do it. But you put me down first, I'm so cold, put some clothes on me." Zhao Shiguo's consciousness has begun to blur, and his words are a bit slurred.

"Get out of here. When your injury is healed, you can cover yourself." Zheng Dayong walked away, and only Zhao Shiguo's unconscious whisper of "cold" was left in his ears.

He shouted: "Lao Zhao, Lao Zhao."

Seeing no response from Zhao Shiguo, Zheng Dayong panicked. The hand holding his butt felt a piece of mud, but it was not mud.

He quickly put Zhao Shiguo on the ground and held his head with his hands to prevent the wounds behind him from touching the ground. Zhao Shiguo's face was frighteningly pale, and the blood behind him formed a river on his back, and even the pants underneath him were covered with it. Soaked and flowed down the thighs.

"cold."

Zhao Shiguo's unconscious whisper made Zheng Dayong grasp at a life-saving straw, "I'll give you clothes, I'll give you clothes."

He took off his clothes in a panic, covered Zhao Shiguo, and then carried him on his back, "Old Zhao, you have to hold on. You promised to take me home alive. If you die first, I won't If you beat the little devil, I will go find you too."

"Old Zhao, please tell me, I haven't become a real machine gunner yet."

"I just killed five Japs with twenty rounds of bullets. Did you see that?"

"Old Zhao"

The Japanese attack was fierce and it was a standard coordination of infantry and artillery. Bridges were being built and Japanese troops were attacking.

On the battlefield, Xia Yuan and Li Youcai were completely within the range of the Japanese's firepower. His marksmanship was very terrifying. There were not many soldiers alive around him, but he killed 50 soldiers with a [-]-type rifle. Many Japanese soldiers had truly perfect shots.

Li Youcai was stunned at the beginning, but later he accepted it very calmly. He followed Zhang Guangcai in the north and south, and saw many capable generals. He has never seen a soldier with such great marksmanship as Du Xiang, who killed 53 enemies with 53 bullets. He has only seen a soldier with such great marksmanship who killed ten Japanese soldiers with more than 30 bullets. That is already quite impressive. .

Now that he saw such a powerful marksman, Li Youcai was greatly shocked. If the Japanese soldiers stood in a row and killed the enemy with precise marksmanship, he would still be able to accept it. However, the Japanese army was constantly on the move, and some Japanese soldiers even Xia Yuan relied on his own strength to beat him so hard that he huddled in the water and did not dare to show his head. When only half of his head was exposed, Xia Yuan shot him through.

Such precise marksmanship, given Li Youcai's cultural level, I don't know what words to use to describe it, I can only exclaim that it is a heavenly being.

After just this meeting, more than 50 bullets were fired, and none of them were missed. Li Youcai thought that the test given to him by the battalion commander was too simple. He even felt that Xia Yuan no longer needed any assessment.

The casualties of more than 50 Japanese soldiers attracted the attention of the Japanese squadron leader. When he received the casualty report from the second team, he was alerted. He vaguely remembered that the third team that attacked the national defense line was also attacked. The national army violently attacked, causing more than 60 casualties, and they withdrew from the battle.

In that attack, their casualties only caused more than 20 casualties, which was the total casualties in one day.

Now, the battle has only started for more than an hour, and they have suffered more than 50 casualties. The Japanese squadron leader looked gloomy and terrible: "Go, tell the soldiers fighting on the front line to notify me immediately if you find anything!"

"Yes!"

The Japanese communications troops quickly withdrew and conveyed the squadron leader's instructions to the front line. The Japanese soldiers who received the squadron leader's instructions had just withdrawn from the water. The Chinese firepower was not fierce and could be felt when they attacked.

Under the heavy artillery and ferocious firepower of the Japanese army, the Chinese people's first line of defense was in danger. Most of the machine gun fire points were destroyed. The remaining machine gun fire points were also under heavy fire and were basically unusable. The Chinese people's resistance was very weak. , but during their attack, they suffered huge casualties.The fundamental reason is that there is a guy with very accurate marksmanship on the Chinese position. No matter how they dodge, they can't dodge the guy's bullets. He first shoots the leader of the attacking unit, causing the attacking unit to lose its command. Quan, and then shot the observer, preventing the mortar and grenade from accurately aiming.

That guy was quite scary. He could be shot in the head if he exposed half of his head on the water. The observer hiding on the shore also had half of his head exposed. That guy discovered the observer. When they found out that the observer was dead. , his body was found. His helmet was penetrated by a bullet, there was a bloody hole in his forehead, and the bullet penetrated his skull.

"He is a Chinese marksman. His marksmanship is very good, and his observation ability is also very strong. In just one hour, the third squadron suffered heavy casualties and was in urgent need of reinforcements."

The captain's face became even more ugly when he received the message from the signal trooper. "Let the third squadron come down and let the second squadron take over the task of the third squadron. In addition, go and call Mitani over. Mitani is the greatest marksman in the empire. His The ability is enough to destroy a Chinese company, let him deal with the Chinese, and let all the artillery cooperate with his actions."

"Yes!"

Soon, a heavily armed man walked in. He was carrying a special rifle behind him. The rifle had a telescope-like lens tube with two lenses. The gun was very long, about 1.2 meters three. It's so long, and the man is not tall, about 1.6 meters tall. With this gun on his back, it looks very funny.

The Japanese squadron leader did not mean to underestimate him at all, and nodded to him: "Mitani-san, what troubles us most about the Chinese is their military strength. The Chinese are very backward, but they have many people. Our military strength is not as good as theirs. But now, the Chinese troops in Wusong are far inferior to ours, and we will be able to reach the other side of the river in a few days."

"But now, I have encountered a problem and I need your help."

Mitani's eyes were cold and he said, "Nakagawa-kun, please speak."

Captain Nakagawa said: "The Chinese came out of nowhere with a sharpshooter. His marksmanship was very good. In one hour, he shot and killed 53 soldiers of the Japanese Empire. Please Mitani-san to find him and bring him to justice." If you shoot them, I will ask the artillery in the rear to cooperate with your actions."

Mitani frowned and killed 53 soldiers of the Japanese Empire in one hour. Is this guy really as powerful as he said?Mitani didn't quite believe it. If it were him, he might not be able to do this. One hour, six and 10 minutes meant that he would shoot a soldier of the Japanese Empire in one minute.

"If Nakagawa-kun is as powerful as he says, I may not be his opponent."

Even if he doesn't want to admit it, he has to admit it, but who can say for sure about the situation on the battlefield. The 53 soldiers of the Japanese Empire who died would have been killed by one person. To the extent that he could not do it, he believed that others could also. Can't do it.

It is very possible that the soldiers fighting on the front line were too nervous and attributed all the deaths to that one Chinese person. The actual situation is that that Chinese person's marksmanship is very good, but it is far from that level. However, It was after the Chinese killed many soldiers of the Japanese Empire that the surviving soldiers became afraid and regarded other soldiers killed by the Chinese as being killed by that man.

Mitani said: "It's a pity that there is no such thing as the Chinese people's marksmanship may be very powerful, but it is far from that powerful. It is just an illusion of the soldiers fighting on the front line. I still remember when I was a child, when I went home alone at night, I would dig deep on both sides of the road. The shadows of the trees swaying in the wind were regarded as people."

After a pause, he continued: "The Chinese have backward weapons and backward people, and their country is even more backward. They cannot cultivate such powerful marksmen."

In the early 30s, the Kwantung Army encountered organized resistance from the anti-Japanese armed forces in the Northeast. In particular, members with Orion origins had extremely strong survivability in extremely harsh environments, as well as superb marksmanship, which were very important in daily life. The special sniper capabilities they developed caused a huge headache for the Kwantung Army. Eventually, the Japanese army was prompted to equip the Type [-] modified rifle, the Type [-] sniper rifle.

Mitani uses the newly developed Type 1.275 sniper rifle. The gun is 3.95 meters long and weighs 5 kilograms. It uses a 6.5-round magazine to feed ammunition. The caliber is 765 mm. The bullet has a muzzle velocity of 600 meters per second. The effective range is 3000 meters. The maximum It has a range of over [-] meters and was produced in [-]. It played a great role in sniper battles in the battlefields of the invasion of China and the Pacific battlefield.

At present, these guns have just been delivered to the battlefield of the invasion of China and put into use. Mitani is a sniper trained by the Japanese army and has rich shooting experience. Since joining the East Asian battlefield, the number of Chinese people who have died under his gun has reached [-]. above.

It had been so long since Sangu joined the Chinese battlefield and he had only killed two hundred Chinese people. Therefore, he did not believe that the Chinese people could kill 50 enemies in one hour.

"I hope it's as you said, Mr. Mitani, but you should be more careful. This Chinese man is very cunning. The fact that he can survive under the artillery fire of the Japanese Empire proves that he is very cunning."

Captain Nakagawa warned.

The sniper in front of him looked very aloof, which made Captain Nakagawa feel a little uneasy. Although the Chinese were very backward and their soldiers had no fighting qualities, they could not underestimate any nation, especially the Chinese.

It is never as simple as imagined to be able to preserve such a complete country despite countless wars and dynasty changes in its 5000-year history.

As for the statement made by his superiors about the destruction of China in three months, in his opinion, it was a complete lie. In the battle of Songhu, the Chinese people showed their tenacious will to fight.

It is unimaginable that if their training is on par with the Japanese army, it is completely nonsense for them to want to attack China again.

He asked Sangu to be careful. In addition to his cautious posture, the second thing was that a few days ago, when the third squadron of the second squadron launched an attack on the national army position in the west, it was stubbornly blocked by the national army soldiers and reinforced the strength of the three detachments. , still suffering 60 casualties.

And last night, the position in the west was attacked by the national army at night, killing more than 30 people. The casualties in the past few days have totaled more than 200 people.

Since their landing operations, they have not suffered more than 200 casualties, and that's also true.

After only staying near the Sitang River for a few days, the casualties exceeded the total of previous casualties. This made Captain Zhongchuan furious, but he could not find the problem. They all acted in strict accordance with the rules and regulations of combat. , the cooperation between the various units was close, and the attack also maintained a three-line advancement of the left, center, and right. The soldiers all advanced in a triangular formation. When launching a charge, they all coordinated with infantry and artillery.

Even so, they suffered heavy casualties.

This is very puzzling. The combat effectiveness of the Chinese army is obvious to all. The Japanese army has been fighting the Chinese army for many days. Even though they suffered heavy casualties, like now, in just a few days, the number of casualties exceeded 200.

Captain Nakagawa immediately realized that the matter was probably not that simple, and it was probably related to the Chinese marksman.
