Mercenary’s War -
Chapter 597 - 597 592 Our Sniper
597: Chapter 592: Our Sniper 597: Chapter 592: Our Sniper Without the anti-tank missiles, Gao Yang didn’t even dare to imagine the consequences.
“Hide the anti-tank missiles!
We can’t let the enemy destroy them, prepare for the enemy’s armored assault!”
After yelling into the walkie-talkie, Gao Yang shouted to Tommy, “Worker Bee, engage in counter-sniping.”
Tommy quickly removed the mortar tube he had strapped to his back, and following Gao Yang’s order, everyone who was carrying ammunition for Tommy immediately started moving towards him, ready to hand over their ammunition to him.
In counter-sniping, Tommy was secondary, the main person was definitely Cui Bo.
With a distance of over one thousand meters, Gao Yang’s rifle didn’t have enough range.
Even using long-range ammunition, the limit was slightly over one thousand one hundred meters.
At this time, only Cui Bo’s large-caliber sniper rifle could reach the enemy sniper.
Gao Yang looked at Cui Bo and said, “Rabbit, it’s up to you now!”
Cui Bo nodded, took a deep breath, and quickly crawled to the top of the sand dune.
Just as his head peeked out and he could observe the enemy position, he immediately spread a large, thick piece of sand-colored camouflage cloth in front of him.
The 12.7-mm sniper rifle, when fired, produced such a powerful shockwave at the muzzle that it would kick up a lot of dust.
If he didn’t lay down a cloth or wet the ground with water, firing a shot would mean waiting a while before he could fire again, and it would also easily expose his position.
Therefore, laying down a cloth on the ground was essential.
Gao Yang also crawled up beside Cui Bo.
While Cui Bo was setting up his sniping position, Gao Yang was scanning for the enemy sniper with his binoculars.
Once Cui Bo had spread the cloth in front of him, Gao Yang immediately said, “Wind direction, northwest, force 4 wind, regular wind, humidity thirty-seven, haven’t spotted the enemy sniper, the enemy is well hidden.”
Gao Yang and Cui Bo hadn’t seen the enemy sniper shoot and couldn’t analyze the trajectory from the person hit, so they could only rely on visual searching.
However, a sniper would definitely be cautious about concealing themselves, making visual searching a daunting task.
Cui Bo brought his eye up to the scope.
He didn’t deploy the stand, trying to keep the gun’s height as low as possible, which made moving the Barrett M82, such a large gun, somewhat difficult.
Using the scope, Cui Bo searched for less than ten seconds then suddenly fired a shot.
Gao Yang hadn’t expected Cui Bo to shoot so quickly, the enormous gunshot without any mental preparation left his ears ringing.
After firing, Cui Bo immediately yelled, “Move back!”
Dragging his rifle and the cloth, Cui Bo shuffled backward, and hearing Cui Bo’s shout, Gao Yang also retreated immediately.
Once they reached a position behind the sand dune where enemy bullets couldn’t hit them, Cui Bo urgently said, “Spotted the enemy sniper, hit confirmed.”
After pausing briefly, Cui Bo took a breath and said, “Lucky break, found one so fast.”
Although Cui Bo had laid out a cloth, the gunshot still kicked up some dust.
While it didn’t affect Cui Bo’s subsequent observation, it was enough to give away their position.
If there were any enemy snipers paying attention here, staying in the same spot would be suicidal.
After a glance, Gao Yang immediately said, “Change positions, continue.”
As they were searching for a new shooting position, Gao Yang couldn’t help but ask, “Rabbit, how did you spot the enemy sniper?
And this is one thousand three hundred meters, are you sure you killed him?”
Cui Bo smiled proudly and said, “I had observed that spot before, and when I looked again, there was an extra bush that hadn’t been there before, it had to be the enemy’s camouflage.
Although I couldn’t make out the figure of the enemy, shooting at the location I couldn’t go wrong.
Haha, after I fired, I saw a lot of blood appear at the spot I aimed at, I definitely hit him.”
Marksmen and snipers focus on different aspects, Gao Yang is a marksman and also can act as a sniper, but the real sniper of the Satan Mercenary Corps is still Cui Bo.
Gao Yang nodded and said, “Well done, keep it up.”
Cui Bo pointed toward the right side and said, “There must be snipers from the enemy there, otherwise they couldn’t have taken out the first and second squads of Instruction Platoon’s anti-tank missiles.
You should be able to reach the sniper in that position, let’s separate.”
Gao Yang immediately said, “Okay, let’s move separately, be careful.
If you encounter a tough target, let Tommy help with the shooting, gun and artillery together, aim for a fatal shot.”
After speaking, Gao Yang waved his hand and went to the right side of the dune, while Cui Bo changed his position and climbed back to the top of the dune.
The beach was flat with a good view, but the enemy had built a fortification along a naturally formed dune.
It wasn’t that they had dug trenches but rather had piled up sand to create individual circular bunkers.
The circular bunkers were built for crossfire, so they couldn’t be in a straight line, but rather staggered back and forth.
Gao Yang first used his binoculars to search, focusing on spotting any traces of enemy snipers on the bunkers, but after watching for a long time, he found that under their own artillery fire, those bunkers that couldn’t withstand the mortar shells were completely empty, not a trace of people.
The enemy’s position fell silent, tanks, and armored vehicles also did not charge but hid behind the large dune.
The battlefield looked deserted, yet Gao Yang searched carefully, still unable to find any trace of the enemy.
Gao Yang searched within his range, and after not finding any valuable traces, he reluctantly shifted his gaze farther away.
Soon, he saw a person holding a large gun running quickly, moving from one circular fortification to the back of the large dune, and then quickly ducking into another circular fortification.
Gao Yang was urgently alarmed, the man he discovered was outside his shooting range, the distance was about between twelve hundred to thirteen hundred meters, and it seemed that the sniper did not intend to stay in the shelter but was just looking to temporarily hide before moving quickly again.
“Rabbit, I’ve spotted a target, he’s hidden behind a bunker, damn, I can’t specify which one!”
Gao Yang wanted to alert Cui Bo, but since the bunkers all looked similar and there were no landmarks nearby, he was unable to immediately pinpoint which bunker it was and was urgently trying to find a feature of the bunker to report to Cui Bo when the sniper hiding behind the bunker ran out again.
Gao Yang thought he was going to miss this rare opportunity, but just as that sniper had run about three meters out of the shelter, he heard Cui Bo’s gun fire; then in his binoculars, he saw that as the sniper ran out from the bunker, a cloud of blood burst around his body, and then he fell to the ground.
It wasn’t until then that Cui Bo’s proud cry resonated.
“I spotted him earlier, hee hee, just waiting for him to come out, see how accurate my anticipation was, one shot hit, haha!
This gunmanship, unbeatable!” (To be continued.
