Chapter 22 Sniping Smith (for further reading)
In the middle of Xiajieyuli Airport, there is a towering watchtower. Standing on the top of the watchtower, you can overlook the entire airport.

Major Smith, the division commander of the [-]st Marine Division, used this watchtower as his headquarters.

Through the glass around the watchtower, you can clearly see every plant and tree.

Smith said to deputy division commander Mario Rucker: "First transport the wounded out by plane, and then use heavy firepower to control the runway. In addition, connect me to General Mike."

"Yes." Mario immediately asked the correspondent to make a phone call.

After the call was connected, General MacArthur's voice came from inside: "I'm MacArthur, please speak."

"General, Major General Smith is here to report to you that the enemy army has surrounded Xiajieyuli Airport, and the [-]st Marine Division does not have enough strength to defend. I request to retreat!"

MacArthur is holding a commemoration of the fifth anniversary of peace in Tokyo and the puppet country, and he has already released harsh words before Christmas to end the war before Christmas and let his soldiers go home for Christmas.

He had already been slapped in the face, but now he heard that Smith was actually going to lead the [-]st Marine Division to retreat, and he yelled angrily: "Major General Smith, this is war! Retreating is treason. I repeat, retreating is treason. I order you to stop the retreat immediately, no retreat is allowed, this is an order!"

MacArthur wanted to say one more sentence, but Smith had already hung up the phone.

If you don't retreat, are you waiting to die here?
This is Smith's truest thought.

Seeing that the enemy's offensive was getting more and more fierce, with no sign of weakening at all, Smith turned his head and asked, "Is the plane ready to take off now?"

Mario immediately shook his head and replied: "No, no, not yet, the enemy has captured one of our artillery positions, and the airstrip is just within the range of the enemy's heavy artillery."

Smith frowned, looking worriedly out the window at the airstrip.

A plane that was taking off on the runway was hit by a shell, and the whole fuselage exploded and burst into flames.

Another transport plane took off hastily, and its left wing hit an outer sentry tower, which was directly destroyed by the wing.

The U.S. military wounded in the cabin turned pale with fright, and kept crossing their chests, praying for God's blessing.

The whole airport is now in chaos.

Mario asked in a low voice: "General, it's dangerous here, why don't you retreat first?"

Smith shook his head: "No, please remember in the future, we are not retreating, we are attacking in another direction!"

As if mocking his words, at this time the Seventh Company had broken through the outer positions and was attacking the middle area like a bamboo shoot, but the soldiers of the [-]st Marine Division couldn't resist at all and had to shrink their troops and retreat.

In fact, Smith's decision to retreat was correct. If he did not retreat in time, the [-]st Marine Division would be bitten to death and eaten by our side bit by bit.

But if Smith suddenly had an accident and the [-]st Marine Division lost its leader, the consequences would be unknown.

Therefore, Gao Fei made a bold decision-sniper Smith.

He looked for a very concealed shooting position, put the big eight in his hand aside, and took out a Springfield M1903A4 sniper rifle from the system warehouse.

The word "春田" sounds like a Japanese name. In fact, this gun was produced by the Springfield Armory in the United States. Springfield translates into Chinese as "Spring Field", or "Spring Field" for short.

This gun may be the gun with the most misunderstood nationality, but it is definitely an original American product.

On the top of this gun, there is a very long scope, which is an eight-fold Unertl scope.

Gao Fei took a deep breath and visually estimated the distance between him and the watchtower, which was about 800 meters.

Through the long scope, he could clearly see the command post on the watchtower, the commander inside, and the division commander of the First Marine Division, Smith.

Gao Fei's idea is very simple, to kill Smith and perform a decapitation operation.

He waited unhurriedly, because he remembered Ping He's words: "The first thing a sharpshooter must learn is patience. In many cases, there is only one chance to shoot."

Through the scope, he has been watching Smith's every move, watching him call, watching him give orders.

Suddenly, a stray bullet shattered a piece of glass on the watchtower.

Thinking something was wrong, Smith immediately went to the window and looked out through the shattered glass.

He saw that the First Marine Division had been surrounded on three sides, and countless volunteer soldiers rushed forward fearlessly. died in the explosion.

"My God! (God)"

The tragic scene below made him gasp.

The melodious charge horn blew, and the soldiers on the other side were so fearless!

Just when he stood at the window to look out, Gao Fei shot without hesitation.

"Snapped!"

A bullet passed through a distance of 800 meters, and with a puff, it shot into Smith's chest.

Smith fell down with a muffled grunt, blood gushing from the wound, staining his left chest red.

"General!"

Mario quickly dragged Smith away from the window, and the medical staff next to him immediately ran over to stop the bleeding and bandage him.

Gao Fei didn't know whether Smith was dead or not, but he was sure that the shot hit Smith in the chest.

It's a pity that due to the distance, the power of the bullet was much lower, and he didn't aim at the head in order to hit it.

"Call the helicopter quickly, General Smith needs to go to the hospital immediately!"

Mario hurriedly ordered.

Several guards hurriedly carried Smith's stretcher away from the watchtower and rushed to the apron behind.

An H5 helicopter had just taken the wounded out. After receiving the call, it returned and hovered above the apron, preparing to land.

Yu Congrong, who rushed here, saw it and hid behind the wall built with sandbags and asked: "Instructor, what kind of plane is that, it can go straight up and down."

It was also the first time Mei Sheng saw it, and he didn't know the name at all, so he guessed: "A plane that can go straight up and down is probably called... a straight plane?"

Father Lei felt that the name was weird, and said, "Whatever the plane is called, first use the bazooka to blast it down."

The Pinghe people don't talk too much, and they already have a bazooka on their shoulders.

"Chi~!"

A rocket flew out.

"boom!"

As soon as the H5 helicopter landed, it was hit, caught fire and exploded.

Mario was on his way to the tarmac, and when he saw it from a distance, he was dumbfounded and shouted, "Hurry up and find a car."

The guards hurried over in a jeep.

As the second in command of the First Marine Division, Mario is now in danger of Smith's life and death, and he must shoulder the heavy responsibility of leading the way.

He first asked the guards to carry Smith into the car, and then ordered: "From now on, I will take over the post of General Smith, and the 1st Marine Division will obey my command. Everyone will attack south, and the 11st Tank Battalion will be in charge. Open the way ahead; the [-]th Artillery Regiment is responsible for artillery fire cover, and the enemy's artillery positions must be destroyed! At the same time, contact the air fire guidance team, call the [-]st Air Wing, and carry out air strikes!"

"Yes."

Orders were quickly communicated and executed.

Under the command of Mario, the enemy's artillery unit launched a fierce counterattack.

"Boom boom boom...!"

The enemy's 155mm heavy howitzer made a huge roar, and the shells continued to fall one after another, falling on our artillery positions, and one howitzer after another was destroyed.

Yang Shulin looked up and saw a shell flying towards them, and quickly threw the gunner Zheng Xiangdong to the ground, protecting him with his body.

"boom!"

The shell exploded.

The bursting iron piece flew at a high speed like a knife, and Yang Shulin's four fingers were being cut off neatly by this explosive speed iron piece!
His fingers were connected to his heart, and he could not help but let out a muffled groan due to the excruciating pain.

"battalion commander!"

Zheng Xiangdong yelled, and hurriedly turned to call the hygienist, "Hygienist!"

The health worker of the artillery battalion was rescuing an artillery soldier next to him, and in the opened first aid box, there was still the last roll of bandages left.

Seeing this, Yang Shulin immediately bit his teeth from his clothes, tore off a piece of cloth, and quickly wrapped it around his hands.

"Battalion Commander, you..." Zheng Xiangdong choked up.

"What are you talking about, this little injury doesn't need a bandage!"

Yang Shulin stopped the bleeding by himself, and said to Zheng Xiangdong: "As long as there is the last cannon in our artillery battalion, I will shoot out all the shells!"

"Yes!"

"Reload!"

"Yes!"

Zheng Xiangdong immediately took out a shell from the box behind and loaded it into the barrel.

"Wu Qianli, you want to grab four more cannons for me."

"put!"

With a roar, Yang Shulin fired the last shell.

"boom!"

The shells destroyed an enemy 155mm heavy howitzer.
