Use a submachine gun as a sniper rifle

(0856)

This time, the gunshots were indeed caused by the war.

A small group of Green Cult fanatics, who didn't know where they were hiding, suddenly came out and launched an attack on the nearby white-clothed army. The weapons they used were all muskets funded by Europeans. These muskets were made of imitating the technical principles of the Sun and Moon gun. Single shots, front-mounted, rifled, and within a distance of fifty meters, the lethality is still very strong.

The white-clothed soldiers around him heard the gunshots and immediately surrounded him. The consequences were of course that all the Green Cult fanatics were wiped out completely. However, caught off guard, three soldiers in the White-clothed soldiers were unfortunately killed, and five soldiers were injured. When Xu Canhuai and the others rushed out, the wounded were sent for treatment as soon as possible, and the bodies of the victims were still lying on the bed. The military judges and military police who rushed over after hearing the news were conducting preliminary investigations on this matter.

Since he went to the battlefield, it was the first time that Xu Canhuai saw his comrades die at close range. Although he had experienced several battles on the way from Bagh to Aleppo, he encountered many enemies. However, there were no soldiers in the White Army who died. There were not even any injuries. This inevitably gave Xu Canhuai an illusion that the enemy could no longer cause effective damage to the White Army. But now, this illusion has been corrected. It turned out that the White Army would also suffer casualties.

The three white-clothed soldiers who died were all shot by muskets at close range. According to the subsequent investigation, the fanatics' shooting distance was less than fifty meters. When they fired within such a short distance, the attacked people had no chance to react at all. The thin military uniforms obviously could not stop the shooting of the projectiles. As a result, they unfortunately died.

Xu Canhuai deeply regretted his sacrificed comrades. They should have been mentally prepared for sacrifice, but they should not have expected that they would sacrifice here for no reason and without warning - a narrow alley. If they could choose, they should choose to die in front of the formation instead of being attacked in this narrow alley without even knowing their name. To be honest, they did not die too much.

The comrades in the same team, other white-clothed officers and soldiers, also deeply regretted the three victims. However, the military judges and the military police had different views on this matter. Soon, news came out that the three victims would not be qualified as martyrs. The seven injured people might also be punished. Because, in total, ten of them were obviously not carrying out missions. In other words, they were violating military orders and acting without authorization.

Even worse news was circulated within a certain range. The white-clothed soldiers of this small team entered this alley obviously for some private purposes and had nothing to do with the combat tasks of the troops. Suddenly, the nature of the incident completely changed. Violating military orders and acting privately is a very serious crime. In addition, the crime was even more serious for private purposes. It is estimated that they may be sent to a military court.

As a clerk, Xu Canhuai also asked about the incident briefly, but the survivors were all vague, and the questions and answers between them were completely inconsistent. Idiots could see that they were covering up something. From this, they concluded that if they came to this remote alley, if it was not for gold, silver and wealth, they were for women. The former was the greatest possibility. Because, after careful search by the military police, there were only treasures and no women in this alley.

Needless to say, after this matter is investigated, the team leader and squadron leader of theirs will be punished. If it is strictly investigated, the team leader will be criticized. Xu Xingxia has always emphasized before that after the city is broken, we must pay special attention to military discipline and not repeat the previous mistakes of Huang Chao. Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong are both very cautious. Unexpectedly, there are still people below who disobey and do something sneaky.

Two hours later, the results of the incident were announced. According to the final investigation, this incident was entirely caused by the greed of the gang leader. It was his order to bring the whole group into the alley. The purpose was to privately find the wealth in the alley and take it for himself. There were a total of four people who participated in the planning. One died, and three of them were just slightly injured.

The Military Law Department quickly made a preliminary judgment that two of the three victims were eventually rated as martyrs and could receive generous pensions. The other one who participated in the planning was not rated as martyrs and was included in the list of accidental deaths. The injured person could also be dealt with according to the standards of the injured. However, the responsible gang leader and two accomplices were arrested by the military court. Obviously, there must be no good results waiting for them.

After figuring out the causes and consequences of the matter, Xu Canhuai couldn't help but sigh secretly. He was indeed quite moved by this matter. It was all caused by greed. Xu Xingxia repeatedly emphasized the discipline after the city was broken, but they still refused to listen. As a result, they gave up their lives in vain. It was nothing to send their lives, but they also destroyed the lives of innocent people. This is the most infuriating thing. I hope that similar things will not happen again in the future.

The cruel facts prove once again that if you do not abide by discipline and let yourself go after the city is broken, you will feel comfortable, but it is very likely to bring disaster to yourself. There are living examples in front of you, which cannot be believed. Xu Xingxia's foresight is really not a big deal. Xu Canhuai admires his father more and more.

...

"These bastards." Li Zicheng frowned.

Li Zicheng was very upset when he received the handling opinions sent by the Military Law Department.

The people below violated military orders and acted privately, causing unnecessary casualties to the troops. Of course, they must be severely punished to serve as a warning. However, there are armed enemies hidden in the city of Aleppo, which is a dereliction of duty. They also thought that the city was completely safe. It seems that it is necessary to further strengthen the comprehensive cleanup operation!

"The North Koreans are not doing anything cleanly, let the Malays go." Zhang Xianzhong said murderously.

Because of the emergence of this hidden enemy, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong ordered martial law in Aleppo. The Korean vassal army, which was originally responsible for cleaning up the remaining enemies in the city, was transferred to the north of Aleppo. The Malay vassal army composed of the Nanyang people was transferred into the city to conduct another large-scale search of the city, and all the hidden enemies must be found.

In fact, Aleppo was already under martial law, but now it is just increasing the level of martial law. The minions from Nanyang and other places use a large number of ** bags to force explosions in any suspicious areas, so as to avoid a basement. Sure enough, after this explosion, many "ground rats" were indeed cleared out.

In addition to strengthening martial law, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong also ordered the reaffirmation of discipline again. The unlucky co-master did hit the gun this time. After trial by the Military Law Department, he was sentenced to death. He was immediately executed by firearms. Military judges and military police were on duty on the streets on a regular basis. Anyone who found that they violated military discipline would be arrested on the spot.

After all this trouble, Lei Hu, Xu Canhuai and others naturally had no intention of taking a bath. They rubbed all the soil on their bodies, changed into clean clothes, and hurried back to their camp to gather. It was not safe outside and there were many military policemen, so they didn't want to cause trouble. The military discipline of the White Army was not a joke. They couldn't afford to mess with them.

Fortunately, Lei Hu's team has no combat missions for the time being, so they can rest for several days. They can sleep, play and relax. If they are really bored, they can do something meaningful. No matter what the chaos is outside, as long as they stay in the military camp safely, there will be no trouble.

However, relaxation is the business of soldiers. For officers and non-commissioned officers, without combat tasks does not mean that there is nothing to do. There are actually many things they have to do. Among them, the most important thing is to summarize the combat experience of the past few days. Any experience, any areas worth promoting, lessons, and any points that need to be paid attention to must be filled in carefully. These report documents are fixed and cannot be ignored.

This kind of writing skills is naturally Xu Canhuai's strength. Lei Hu and others only recognize a few men, and it is very difficult to write reports. As a result, when Xu Canhuai filled out the battle report, Lei Hu and others' eyes focused on him. Finally, Lei Hu and a few non-commissioned officers exchanged glances with each other, and finally showed strange smiles on their faces.

There is no doubt that in the eyes of Lei Hu and other non-commissioned officers, Xu Canhuai's performance on the battlefield was not qualified. To be precise, it was very unqualified. As a clerk, he might be able to get through it. However, as a fighter, he was simply too trash. Lei Hu and the others could not tolerate Xu Canhuai's performance so trash. They decided to seize the time and give Xu Canhuai a lesson. Crazy up at the battle, as long as it is useful, it is also good.

After Xu Canhuai finished filling out the battle report, Lei Hu immediately said: "Regg, you leave the list!"

A man of five big and three thick appeared in front of Lei Hu immediately, with his legs together, stood attentively and shouted loudly in a loud voice: "Come on!"

This big man is called Regg, and he is a typical Northeastern man. He is from Gaizhou Wei from Liaodong. He has been in the army for three years and is currently a second-level non-commissioned officer. When it comes to combat skills, Regg is not the best among the few non-commissioned officers. However, he looks the most fierce, terrifying and violent. Therefore, the effect is particularly good when training soldiers. Lei Hu and his friends have to train Xu Canhuai, and it is most suitable for them to come forward with the five big and three thick Reggs.

Lei Hu turned his head and looked at Xu Canhuai meaningfully, turned to look at Regg, and said solemnly: "I will leave Xu Wenshu's basic combat skills to you."

Reg's face was solemn, straightened his body, and replied loudly: "I understand!"

Xu Canhuai then realized that he was in trouble. These guys probably found that their combat skills were relatively trash and decided to give him some lessons. Reg's body shape could tell at a glance that he was the most terrifying instructor. In front of such instructors, it would be useless to say anything. Because he could beat you half a lifetime with one hand at any time.

However, Xu Canhuai happily accepted Lei Hu's arrangements and had no complaints at all. On the contrary, he was a little grateful. After all, these guys were all concerned about themselves. They didn't want to sacrifice their precious lives on the battlefield. They didn't know their true identity at all. They just fulfilled their responsibilities as comrades.

This is a real battlefield, not a game, nor is it a child playing house. If you are not careful, you will die. Bullets will not deliberately turn around and avoid him just because he is Xu Xingxia's son. Just now, three soldiers accidentally died. Good combat skills can obviously increase the insurance coefficient on their own battlefield and make themselves live longer.

In the following time, Xu Canhuai honestly followed Reg to learn various combat skills. Reg's training was indeed very strict and hard. However, Xu Canhuai still gritted his teeth and supported him. If he couldn't do anything that others could do, it would be too embarrassing. If his father knew about it, he would probably not have a good impression.

If Xu Xingxia saw it here, she would nod her head to express satisfaction. Xu Canhuai was indeed a little afraid of death. However, fear of death is not a bad thing. People who are afraid of death will know how to protect themselves better. Wasting life in vain is not a manifestation of courage. Even Lei Hu and Regg are always very careful on the battlefield and are never reckless.

However, Regg's training for Xu Canhuai only lasted five days before it ended. Because, five days later, Leihu's team received an emergency mission, which was to go to Damascus to conduct combat reconnaissance, and to control Holmes and other towns.

"The defenders of Damascus may retreat. You must arrive at Holmes first before the enemy strengthens Holmes' defensive power. If the enemy tries to pass Holmes, you must be stuck and must not let them pass!" Squadron leader Sun Dasheng said seriously to Lei Hu and others when he was giving the mission.

Of course, Sun Dasheng is nicknamed. His original name was Sun Shenghai. However, because he usually likes to play Sun Wukong, he has a nickname called Sun Dasheng. Speaking of which, he is also a veteran of the White Army. When the Shooting Army attacked Yulin Town, he joined the army. Among the several squadron leaders, his qualifications are quite old.

Sun Dasheng introduced that according to the information currently being reconnaissance, there should be disagreements within the defenders of Damascus, and there was an internal strife. Some people advocated defending and waiting for reinforcements and fighting with the White-clothed Army. Even if they were all killed in battle, some of the White-clothed Army would have to be the bottom. Even if Damascus was burned, they could not be left to the White-clothed Army. Some people advocated retreating immediately and joining the reinforcements from Istanbul in Aleppo or elsewhere. No matter what, they were unwilling to stick to the empty city of Damascus.

"I understand! Obey the order!" Lei Hu replied loudly.

The troops immediately prepared and marched in the direction of Damascus.

After walking south from Aleppo and walking for two days, the Leihu team approached Holmes. Holmes is an important link between Damascus and Aleppo, and is also a very prosperous city. When Holmes had the largest population, it was said to have exceeded 300,000. Of course, that was before the arrival of the White Army. After the White Army, all the people here moved to Damascus. Basically, Holmes is an empty city now.

At the beginning, the defenders of Damascus voluntarily gave up Holmes in order to increase their own defense and shrink their defense lines. Now, the retreating factions in Damascus must send new troops to seize Holmes. If they could not even control Holmes, they would not have the chance to evacuate Damascus safely. From this, it is inferred that the battle for Holmes would definitely be quite fierce, and there would be many dead people.

When the Leihu team arrived at Holmes, they found that it was quiet and there was no one. Since all the people of Holmes had retreated before, the entire Holmes seemed to be an empty city. Since no one cleared the streets, the entire city was like a huge garbage dump, and the streets were full of garbage. A large amount of wind and sand were blowing, and all the buildings were covered with thick sand and soil, and their original appearance was almost impossible to see.

Of course, this definitely does not mean that there are no enemies in Holmes. In fact, the enemies are all hiding in hidden places. Lei Hu and others are all veterans and have a rich sense of fighting. They had already felt danger as soon as they approached Holmes. They searched carefully with a telescope, and soon found several hidden gunmen in the hidden corner. They were waiting for the White Army to enter their musket range and then quietly fired fire.

To be honest, if Lei Hu and the others rushed in directly from the street, what awaited them would be continuous gunfire. The projectiles shot from the buildings on both sides of the street could snatch half of their teams on the street. Once the white-clothed army was in chaos, more enemies would come out and take their lives.

Lei Hu discussed with several non-commissioned officers and decided to bypass the streets and launch an attack from behind the enemy. When it comes to sneak attacks, Lei Hu and the others are also veterans. The equipment of the White Army is more suitable for long-distance shooting than the enemy. At that time, it will be up to who will sneak attack whom.

Xu Canhuai naturally followed Lei Hu. Lei Hu and a few people quietly walked in from another alley and hid behind the enemy. Through the telescope, the lurking enemies basically exposed their locations. At that time, there was not much professional sniping knowledge. It was already good for the Ottoman musketeers to know how to ambush.

Lei Hu and others seized very favorable positions, which can effectively monitor the movements of the enemy. The distance between them and the target is only about one hundred meters. However, there is a problem, that is, Lei Hu and others are equipped with submachine guns, not sniper rifles. Obviously, submachine guns are not suitable for sneak attacks. However, without sniper rifles, they can only use submachine guns as sniper rifles.

"Da da da da!"

Lei Hu took the lead in shooting a short shot, flipping over the enemy behind the window.

Several other people also shot one after another, flirting with all the enemies in the sight.

As Lei Hu's gunshots were heard, the white-clothed soldiers lurking in other places also shot. For a moment, the gunshots were quite dense, and the bullets stirred up a lot of dust.

The enemy who was suddenly attacked was caught off guard and panicked immediately, running out of the hidden place desperately and fled south along the street. In the panic, they basically lost their calmness. They never thought that their escape would be like sending themselves to hell. They exposed themselves to the open street. Didn’t this intentionally send them to the submachine gun?

"Da da da da!"

"Da da da da!"

The gunshots on the streets suddenly rang out.

Those escaped enemies were beaten to death on the streets.

Xu Canhuai finally had the opportunity to perform. After five days of rigorous special training, he was not so panicked in shooting. Faced with the enemy rushing up, he was able to calmly shoot and aim as fast as possible. For soldiers like him, a submachine gun is simply too easy and suitable.

Although there was a waste of bullets, short shots could easily turn into continuous shots, and the jumping of the muzzle was quite serious, Xu Canhuai hit several targets after all. Several enemies rushing up towards him staggered down in front of his muzzle. Dark red blood burst out from their bodies, and then they fell on the street, motionless.

While the Leihu team was shooting and clearing the lurking enemies, intermittent gunfire sounds were also heard in other directions and other streets of Holmes. This was another white-clad army, clearing the enemy. Sporadic gunfire means that the number of enemies encountered is very small. If the gunshots suddenly come out, there are obviously a large number of enemies.

Holmes is actually quite large, with many streets and buildings. Lei Hu has a small team of only fifty or sixty people, and obviously cannot control the huge town. Therefore, Li Zicheng transferred a large brigade of troops, with a total force of about 1,500, all of which were deployed in Holmes. It is estimated that with the development of the war and the strengthening of the enemy's counterattack, more troops will be invested in Holmes. Lei Hu and others are just vanguards.

With the arrival of more white-clothed troops, Holmes' remaining defenders were forced to retreat south. Lei Hu and others did not chase them and allowed them to retreat south. Anyway, Damascus in the south is a dead end. If the enemy wants to survive, they will have to go back. At that time, it will not be too late to deal with them hard.

To the south of Holmes, there is a small high ground with a relative height of about twenty feet. Because the surrounding terrain is relatively flat, this small high ground can overlook the surroundings. From a tactical perspective, this high ground is very important. The Leihu team is stationed on this high ground. Xu Canhuai also followed them to station this high ground.
