Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

"Ah! Why is it you!" Huang Jinrong, Du Yuesheng, and Zhang Xiaolin were stunned for a moment!

At this time on the European battlefield, the army of the imperial cavalry was like a broken bamboo, and it defeated several lines of defense of the enemy, and finally came to the small town of Maux, which was already the last line of defense of the French army. It was on the north side of the Orqui River. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The French deployed three divisions here in an attempt to stop the imperial cavalry here.General Xiafei's order was that no matter how much the price was paid, the Chinese must not be allowed to break through the city defenses.

March 3.The Imperial Cavalry launched the "Iron Fist Project" formulated by the German Advisory Group.The core of this plan is to take down Maoks, cut off the connection between the French army and the British army of Montion, and then attack from both wings to completely destroy and break through this line of defense.

To this end, Zhang Zuolin mobilized the Third Army Corps and the Artillery Division overnight, as well as the Cheetah-class tanks that the Ministry of the Army had just brought in as reinforcements from China.In order to reduce the weight of the vehicle body, this tank does not use a cannon with high chamber pressure and high rate of fire, but a 75mm caliber howitzer. Bulletproof steel plate, the engine of the chariot uses a tank engine, and the speed is not very fast, only about 30 kilometers per hour.However, this kind of car is specially used for urban street fighting, and it is specially built to deal with European terrain, so it doesn't matter if it is slower.The third armored company participating in the battle this time had a total of 20 such strange tanks, but due to mechanical failures and other reasons, only 15 were put into battle.These 10 newest tanks will be scattered in platoons in three offensive routes to act as spearheads.

At six o'clock in the morning, the Iron Fist plan officially began to be implemented.Accompanied by the attack of 24 wheel-mounted artillery pieces, Maokes Pier was immediately plunged into a sea of ​​flames, and then 16 105mm mountain artillery pieces also joined the chorus of artillery pieces.Soon the pier occupied by the French army and the surrounding buildings were covered by the pouring rain of shells.In an instant, the French soldiers guarding the nearby buildings suffered heavy losses.

The shelling lasted for more than an hour, and a total of about [-] shells were destroyed. Most of the defensive positions of the French army on the pier line were destroyed after this shelling, causing heavy casualties.

But it didn't end there.At 7 o'clock in the morning, with the fall of the last shell, the French soldiers slowly climbed out of the artillery bunker.This was the first time they encountered such powerful artillery fire, and all the survivors showed unprecedented fear on their faces.They don't know how long they can last, and they don't know if they will die today.

Just as they were feeling at a loss, there was a disturbing sound of motors in the sky.Hearing those voices, the French immediately became more terrified, and then they all went back to their shelters.

Soon, a mass of black airships appeared in the southwest direction of the sky. The hulls of those airships were all painted black, but the golden dragon logo with dancing claws on the balloons was still very conspicuous.

Under the guidance of two reconnaissance boats, the flight formation quickly arrived near the pier, and then began to detour around the port and nearby buildings. The reconnaissance boat dropped several red smoke tubes, marking the Once the bombing range was reached, the rest of the bombing boats followed immediately, and dropped bombs one after another according to the signal indicated by the smoke pipe.These bombs included 65kg high-explosive bombs and 50kg incendiary bombs. The Maukes Wharf and its surrounding area, which had just calmed down for a moment, turned into a sea of ​​flames again.Although the French soldiers stationed there tried their best to request the headquarters to send airships to support them by radio, but because the two largest French airship bases were devastated by the Chinese airship brigade a while ago, they were almost completely lost. Sent back to the Paris defenses, he besieged the Gaul capital.So Maukes and its environs had no French air power at all.And for the sake of the overall situation, it is impossible for Xia Fei to send reinforcements from the limited airship.

The bombing lasted for about an hour, mainly to ensure the effect of the bombing.Operating in the sky without the harassment of enemy boats, the Chinese airships circled back and forth in the sky above Max as if they were in no man's land.

Soaring Heads: World War I Chapter 3 Sharpshooters

At 9 o'clock, the imperial cavalry finally launched a ground attack.The [-]rd Independent Combat Engineer Brigade, with the cooperation of Cheetah-class tanks, stormed the city of Maoks to the northwest along the north bank of the Orqui River, while the [-]th Brigade covered the main attack direction from the flanks, and the large forces slowly advanced.

The French army hastily retreated back into the city after only making some symbolic resistance outside the city, so the vanguard of the imperial cavalry entered the city without much effort.As the commander of the vanguard, Tang Yulin lit a cigarette, took a quick puff and threw it on the ground.He was a little anxious, the most troublesome thing for him was the hateful street fighting, the enemy might fire a cold shot from behind at any time, it was really hard to guard against.In the Sino-Russian War, annoying street fighting almost wiped out the army he led.

At this moment, he was quietly looking at the French army's position across the corner. This position was established on the central street of Max City. The most important stronghold of the army, where the French army stationed about 1000 troops.There is not only a temporary bunker made up of sacks filled with sand, but also a cross-fire network composed of three 37-inch flat-fire guns in a building behind the bunker.Behind the sandbags is an infantry shield made of bulletproof steel.They can rely on the defense of this shield to calmly shoot the enemy.In addition, there are three heavy-duty machine guns parked in a small alley at the back. As long as there is any disturbance, they will be launched from the dead alley next to them and start shooting. In addition, the buildings on both sides of the road have been transformed into bunkers. If you attack hard, you will lose a lot.Tang Yulin was really helpless in the face of such a situation where he couldn't advance, and he couldn't retreat.

At this time, Liu Mingjiu, the communications officer who had been with him all year round, saw his worry, and whispered in his ear: "Master, do you feel embarrassed?"

"His grandma, I like to fight with real knives and guns, but I still can't get used to this kind of street fighting." Tang Yulin sighed depressingly.

"Teacher, I have a way to solve the urgent need."

"Oh? Now is not the time to joke. If you dare to lie to me, don't blame me for turning your back on me!" Although Tang Yulin spoke fiercely, he obviously cared about Liu Mingjiu's words.

"Master, have you forgotten that there is a sharpshooter in our division, and he has killed hundreds of enemies by sniping until now, and most of them are at the officer level. A heavy machine gunner is not a problem at all, after the enemy's heavy firepower is wiped out, we will take the opportunity to cover up and kill the French, and the French will definitely be killed."

Tang Yulin rubbed the back of his head and pondered for a while: "Yes, after what you said, isn't that kid a god? There are so many of us who can't rush through, and he can take away this tough bone with a gun in his hand?"

Liu Mingjiu smiled: "What I said is not clever at all. As long as this kid goes out, he can kill all the heavy firepower on the opposite side. It is said that he has been hunting sheep with his grandfather since he was a child, and he is good at marksmanship." He learned it from his grandfather. When he was five years old, he went out alone to herd sheep with his grandfather on his back. When he met a pack of wolves, he climbed straight to the tree. Killed a pack of wolves, all with one hit!"

Tang Yulin took a deep breath, smacked his lips and said, "Grandma, this kid is so fucking smart. I usually look down on him, and I've never paid attention to him..."

It rained suddenly at night.There was a fierce battle ahead, and the miserable green flares shot into the air one after another, and the sound of guns and shouts of fighting in Maoks City became one.Turbidity, blood, stumps, gun parts, corpses, and roars are intertwined, making people feel frightened and tense.

Going to the front line again, this operation originally left Zhuzhu in the rear position, Zhuzi didn't care much about it, he didn't pay much attention to anything, but as soon as he picked up the gun, he immediately followed Like a string, staring at the target with one mind.This afternoon, I suddenly received a telegram from the front line, asking him to rush to the front line to support him, and sent a military motorcycle to pick him up. He was accompanied by some recruits from the reconnaissance company who had never been on the battlefield.The car body wobbled along the way, and the condition got worse the closer to the front road.

During the march, Zhuzi saw that these recruits who had just graduated from the Imperial Continent were nervous and frightened, and some of them were still trembling.He knew that most of the people who went to the front line for the first time looked like this, and there was nothing strange about it. He had also experienced the fear of entering the battlefield for the first time, so he sympathized with them very much.After getting used to it, maybe they are more courageous than leopards in battle, just like playing.

This should be certain, no one is born a hero who is not afraid of death.When facing the enemy and having to fight for their lives, everyone will become brave and strong under the last resort.

At this time, the bombs above the head are roaring and flying back and forth, some of them are falling deep into the enemy, and some are directly hitting the high ground by the opposite river valley. You can clearly feel it.From time to time, artillery shells fired by the enemy fell towards the road, and some fell into the ground next to the motorcycle.

In fact, on such a rainy night, you can't see the situation in the distance, but listening to the shocking rumbling guns nearby, let alone the newcomers, Zhuzi's thinking seems to have stagnated.The only thing we can do now is to ask for blessings, and don't be hit by the enemy's cannonballs.

At this time, the east was just turning white, and a ray of sunlight was projected from the clouds. The sky that had been gloomy for a long time finally disappeared, and suddenly the clouds opened to see the sunrise.

Zhu Zhu lay behind the cover as usual, and had been lurking on the sniper platform for a long time.Although there was no movement in the direction of the enemy camp, he was still as firm as a rock, not moving at all, and his gun was fixed on the enemy camp.

Tang Yulin secretly observed the back of the pillar from behind, already showing an expression of approval.He is also considered a half-expert. He once went to the mainland of the Empire to study military theory under the assignment of the emperor. At this time, from this young man, he has already seen the qualities that an excellent sniper should have.

Suddenly, Zhu Zi felt something move in front of him, and suddenly became excited.While concentrating, a shaky figure appeared about 400 meters in the direction of the enemy camp. Although the front of the field of vision was hazy and the visibility was not low, it was enough for the pillar.He aimed at the French soldier who was peeing, turned around and reported the situation in a low voice to Tang Yulin, and seeing the division commander made a gesture to him, he said: I'm fighting.

Tang Yulin glanced at his watch again, but there was no sound.The pillar was acquiesced, and with a movement of his finger, there was a thunder in the sky and a gunshot, and the target collapsed like a pile of firewood, and there was no more movement.

Zhu Zi stared at the trophy that had fallen to the ground, and after a while, he heard the teacher behind him say: "We count as killing one, and start looking for the second prey."

In the previous protracted confrontation, many Frenchmen were frightened by the snipers of the imperial cavalry, especially the pillars. Almost every day, no less than 10 of them died under the guns of Chinese snipers, so even the sentinels on guard dared not Looking up, as soon as he heard the gunshot, he covered his head and shivered behind the bunker, fearing that the bullet would hit his head.So after Zhuzi killed the first target, he waited for a long time without seeing anyone.But he is very patient, and his patience comes from long-term tempering, because he knows the enemy just like he knows himself, and he knows that after a while, as long as there is no movement on his side, the enemy will look out again.

Sure enough, another head of the enemy who was hiding in the darkness of a heavy machine gun quietly emerged, but as soon as it came out, it entered the field of vision of the pillar.The soldier didn't expect that there would be such a sharpshooter hidden on the opposite side, so he walked towards another bunker in a big way. Suddenly, he felt his eyes were stimulated by something, and when he was about to retract his head, it was too late, and he heard a dull voice. With the sound of a gunshot, a bullet pierced the helmet and penetrated into his head, and he fell to the ground without saying a word.

"The second one is solved." Zhu Zi turned his head to the side and said in a deep voice. Tang Yulin had seen his shot clearly for a long time, and he saw it clearly, so he couldn't help giving him a thumbs up at this time.Zhuzi laughed for a while, and then said: "I guess the enemy is afraid to come out now, so we have to wait for a while. If you are cold, go back first."

"Stop talking nonsense, I'll be your observation post." Tang Yulin moved closer and said.

So Zhuzi stopped talking and concentrated on looking for the third target.

Back then, Zhuzi’s grandfather told him that a good sniper needs to meet three conditions. Excellent shooting skills are only the last and most basic point of all sniper skills, and discipline and carefulness are the most important elements.Sometimes a sniper is one person, or maybe 2 or 3 people. It depends on the nature of the task. Blindly shooting at the target just for the sake of shooting will only increase the chance of being discovered, captured and killed. Discipline and patience are very important Yes, especially when it comes to shooting and not shooting.

Before becoming a sniper, you must first ask yourself: Are you afraid of cold or heat?Are you irritable?Anger can make you careless and do unusual behavior, which is the worst part.

In order to train the pillars, his grandfather once locked him in a small dark room for a week.During this period, there are no friends, no family, no communication, no connection.Just provide him with the most basic food and water.During this week, Zhuzi never resisted or struggled, but persisted until the last day.He was 8 years old that year.

"A sniper is not necessarily a lonely person, but in fact, if your daily life cannot be without the presence of other people, a sniper must not be your best choice." Zhuzi's grandfather once told him.

Why are these important?A sniper crawls all day just to shoot a shot, and sometimes he may find nothing. Can you abandon the mission without firing a shot?Sometimes you only have three seconds to shoot when you see your target, and if you're daydreaming, eating, or doing something else, you've failed.You have to know your mission, location and wait for the target to show up. This is why you need teammates. It is very difficult for one person to observe continuously with a telescope for more than 20 minutes. You have to keep still all day to avoid the enemy's discovery. Listen Very easy to do but actually very difficult, it is impossible for a beginner fisherman to leave the line below the surface for more than 3 minutes, because they always want to lift the hook to see, if you have hunting experience you will know How hard is it to keep still in front of prey, let alone when you are facing prey who will shoot you when they see you?

For an excellent sniper, carefulness is everything to him, and it affects his decision. Carefulness alone can make a sniper successful. Before a sniper takes action, he must decide where he wants to be, how to go, how to go, What equipment to bring, what camouflage to use, how to communicate, what to do in case of an emergency during operations, how to retreat after the task is completed, and how to avoid losses if it cannot be completed?A sniper must think about all the procedures in detail from the beginning to the end, so that the configuration of weapons and bullet supply equipment will produce effects. Shooting skills are the last element. A sniper needs to shoot the target at the farthest effective range under any circumstances. The distance is equal to the life time of the retreat.If you want to be proficient in shooting, you need to practice at least 1500020000 to [-] rounds of bullets to be considered qualified practice, and this is only equivalent to the number of bullets that Zhu Zi practiced in a year.

When Zhuzi was 11 years old, his grandfather died in the snow while hunting, but to this day, Zhuzi still doesn’t know what his grandfather did back then and why he had such magical marksmanship.This has become an eternal mystery in Zhuzi's heart.

After serving as a soldier, Zhuzi shot and killed hundreds of enemy officers above the company level in just two years with an old-fashioned Hanyang gun. He immediately got the attention of the division's senior management, and even Zhang Zuolin personally met him. , and personally presented him with the latest Mauser 98 rifle.

Grandpa once told him that a good sniper can hit the target accurately no matter what kind of gun he takes at any time and any place, as long as there is a target.Having said that, Zhu Zi still loves this Mauser 98 very much.This bolt is a simple and solid integral bolt with two locking teeth, both located at the top of the bolt.Since the locking position is close to the rear of the chamber, the error of the bolt itself has little influence on the shooting accuracy.Its straight charging handle is fixed to the bolt and remains parallel to the barrel when locked.

Another feature of this action is its extractor.After the bolt is pulled back, the extractor catches the bottom edge of the case immediately, holding the bullet firmly until the case is ejected by the ejector.Pumping and shell ejection are smooth and reliable.

The rifle's frame and stock are of one-piece walnut construction, which, combined with its classic shape, makes the rifle a work of art.

Every time he picked up this gun, Zhu Zi couldn't help getting excited, but now, even though he was holding this beloved rifle, he calmed himself down to the greatest extent.

Exhale... inhale... time is flowing slowly between this exhalation and inhalation.

The third target did take him a lot of time. According to past experience, if two people in a row die at the hands of snipers, the enemy will definitely not dare to show up in a short time.The sudden appearance of the pillars, just two shots, already made the enemy tremble with fear. They all hid behind the bunkers, fearing that if they leaned over for a while, they would be in danger of headshots. They didn't even dare to go out to the toilet.

When Zhuzi was squatting to guard the third target, he waited for a long time without catching the shadow of the opponent. The sniper's style of play like him was called a moving target by everyone. One place, or withdraw troops and return to the team, otherwise you may squat for a few hours and may not see anyone, or even be killed by an enemy sniper because you exposed your position.

The hot-tempered Tang Yulin glanced at the time, and it turned out that nearly half an hour had passed. He was really impatient, but as an observation post, he had to follow the sniper closely at all times. In a hurry, his movements were slightly larger. The moment he turned over, he suddenly felt numbness in his ears, and a bullet flew past his scalp!

Zhu Zi was also taken aback. He didn't expect that the other party also had a sniper watching them. It seems that he met a master today, otherwise he would definitely not be able to find that guy's trace based on his experience and skills.

"Teacher, are you okay? Otherwise, you should withdraw first." Zhu Zi retracted to Tang Yulin's side and said in a low voice.

Tang Yulin took off his hat and took a look, he couldn't help but gasp, if the bullet was lowered, this little life would be explained today.But when he heard what Zhu Zi said, he still stared and said: "Fart! You fucking brat, if you talk nonsense, I will punish you when I go back."

It seemed that kindness was like a donkey's liver and lungs. Zhuzi stuck out his tongue and dared not say anything.So, Zhu Zi held the gun again, bent his waist, and secretly peeked at the position where the enemy sniper fired through the cover, but after aiming for a long time, he didn't even see a ghost.
