Chapter 96: Running for hundreds of miles, just for one shot
At 5:20 in the morning, Chen Chen arrived at the suburb of Mengka.
His location is on the hillside on the east side of Monkha City, far across the Mekong River from Monkha City. Directly in front of it is the Monkha Government Hospital, and in front of the government hospital is from the Monkha Military Camp to Monkha City The only way to go.
Chen Shenhe's private soldiers pass by this road every day. This is information that Chen Chen has already grasped without having to conduct reconnaissance.
He buried himself deeply in the grass and covered the sight with coarse gauze brought from the hospital.
The gun in hand is a standard model of M24. It uses Remington’s classic 5R heavy barrel and is paired with a 10X42 Leupold M3A Ultra standard sight. The entire gun can be said to be original.
The only change was in the bullet. The gunner did not use the conventional M118 special bullet, but chose the M118LR long-range bullet. Although this bullet reduces the muzzle velocity of the bullet to a certain extent, it can achieve greater stability. , higher accuracy can be achieved at distances exceeding 600 meters.
——
I have to say, this is really because I want my uncle from my mother’s side to come, and I want to sleep on a pillow.
Because now, the distance between Chen Chen and the target point is exactly about 600 meters.
Of course, in the eyes of most ordinary people, this distance is really not that far.
Especially in some blockbuster films specifically depicting snipers, a can of Coke can be stably hit from a distance of 1,500 meters.
Such a case sounds very exaggerated and shocking, but in fact, it is also very unrealistic.
Not to mention the optical distortion caused by the quality of the sight itself in complex environments, the Coriolis effect (the rotation of the earth) can cause the bullet to deflect thousands of miles.
The difficulty of ballistic calculation does not rise linearly, but rises geometrically.
For every 100 meters more distance, the average hit accuracy will drop by at least 10%.
In fact, almost all sniper operations occur within 1,000 meters, and the distance of 400 to 800 meters includes almost all "conventional sniper missions."
Chen Chen's sniper attack this time was a "routine mission."
He took out his binoculars, carefully observed the direction of the military camp, and waited quietly.
Although he has not fully recovered to his peak condition at this time, and although his last bit of physical strength has been almost drained out after the long journey, the more times like this, the more stable his mental state becomes.
He carefully bit down a small piece of flesh on the inside of his lip with his teeth, and the severe pain made him wake up instantly.
And under the constant stimulation, the sleepiness that had already surged gradually dissipated.
The sky was getting brighter, and Chen Chen didn't see the target he was expecting.
But he is not in a hurry because this is not a "must be completed" task.
Even if he didn't squat down with Chen Shenhe this morning, it didn't matter.
Just treat it as if you were training for an extreme sprint.
In fact, things did not develop smoothly.
According to early intelligence, Chen Shenhe should have set off from the military camp before 6 o'clock and started training with his private soldiers.
They will enter Mengka City after 6:10 and pass by the target point set by Chen Chen.
But now, the time has reached 6:15, but through the telescope, there is no movement at the Mengka 7th Brigade military camp stationed on the outskirts of the city.
This is the situation that Chen Chen is most worried about - that is, the other party is so sensitive that after the Lion Corps was killed by his own side and his plan failed to succeed, he immediately chose to shrink back and no longer make any risky actions or interact with the outside world. Any contact.
Wait until the limelight has passed, everything has been negotiated, and all risks have been eliminated before you come out and show your face.
If this is the case, then he may really have to return without success.
Chen Chen couldn't help but sigh.
He really didn't want to lose this perfect window of time.
You know, if he really continues to wait until this matter is completely over, and he wants to kill Chen Shenhe, the suspicion will be much greater.
Because by that time, they must have reached a settlement with the 756 Brigade regarding the "He family" matter. With one of the two biggest suspects eliminated, who should the focus of the investigation be focused on? Needless to say?
Damn it, you can’t have no luck at all, right? !
Chen Chen slowly swallowed the blood foam in his mouth and blinked his sore eyes hard.
——
But at this moment, the "movement" he had been waiting for finally appeared.
Although it was impossible to distinguish a human face from a distance of nearly two kilometers, judging from the color of the military uniform, Chen Shenhe finally appeared.
He did not bring any private soldiers with him. Following him was a man whom Chen Chen was not familiar with, but remembered his face and features.
A big fat man.
The person in charge of the Mengka Public Security Brigade, Battalion Commander Chen Jiashu.
The two boarded the waiting Toyota Land Cruiser and got into the back seat of the car.
Afterwards, the car drove all the way to Mengka City.
But, a new problem came again.
If we look at the opponent's speed and current route, Chen Chen has actually lost his firing window.
He sighed softly and planned to put away his gun and leave after the vehicle was out of his sight.
However, the "luck factor" that had not appeared since the escort operation finally stood on his side.
The Land Patrol drove to the east side of the government hospital, made a large circle, and then turned in the direction of the so-called "City Hall."
Chen Chen finally knew what they were going to do - these two people planned to go to Chen Jiashu's office, or in other words, the headquarters of the security brigade.
He swallowed another mouthful of blood foam, then carefully turned the muzzle of the gun, pointed the telescope at the door of the security brigade, and completed a quick laser range measurement.
The straight-line distance is 510 meters, which is 100 meters closer than the original sniper position.
Don't underestimate the 100-meter distance, because if Chen Chen still aims according to the 600-meter ruler, the bullet he shoots at the chest will fly directly at least 1 meter above the target's head.
Lu Xun stopped and Chen Chen aimed at the side door of the vehicle.
Chen Shenhe did not get out of the car immediately, but lowered the window and talked to the security brigade guards who ran to the car.
Chen Chen couldn't see clearly the shape of his mouth and couldn't guess what he was saying, but that didn't matter.
Inhale and exhale slowly.
Press your fingers softly, as if you are touching your lover's skin
In the back seat of Lu Xun, Chen Shenhe looked at the guard in front of him impatiently and said:
"Is it that troublesome for you to bring me here?"
"You, Battalion Commander Chen, are all here, so what he said still doesn't work?"
The guard who was scolded by him stood there tremblingly and replied:
"Captain Chen, it's not a problem. What I mean is that you'd better give me a token, otherwise I won't be able to enter your house."
"You can't even tell me my name?!"
Chen Shenhe's tone became serious, and Chen Jiashu on the side quickly patted his arm and said to persuade:
"Brother, don't be so angry!"
"Isn't it just that big brother said a few words? What's the big deal?"
"It's not like you can't tell. In fact, eldest brother is very satisfied with you this time. It's just because you didn't do well enough that he asked you to polish it again."
"Okay, don't embarrass me, a little soldier, let's go in first, and I will personally bring you the people later."
"Don't worry, I'm not in a military camp here. No one cares how you want to play."
Hearing Chen Jiashu's words, Chen Shenhe couldn't help but sigh.
He shook his head and replied:
"Second brother, you don't need to persuade me. I understand in my heart that I just can't get over that hurdle."
"Ever since I was a child, he has always dominated me. I really don't know when I will be able to impress him again."
"You've already impressed him this time."
Chen Jiashu smiled and lowered his voice and said:
"Big brother told me before I left, asking me to praise you. After all, he is the boss and has the same temper as dad. When have you ever seen him say anything nice?"
"So, don't fight with him, let's go home."
After saying these two sentences, most of Chen Shenhe's unhappiness finally dissipated. He nodded, took out the pistol from his waist and handed it to the guard outside the window, and said:
"Take my gun to lead people. Don't blame me for getting angry. I'm working as an errand for your battalion commander and I don't know how to be smart!"
This sentence obviously spared Xiao Bing, who gratefully took the pistol with both hands and was about to stand at attention and salute Chen Shenhe to say goodbye. But at this moment, an incredible scene suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
——
Chen Shenhe's face suddenly exploded.
Blood sprayed all over the guard, and he froze on the spot, looking at the gun in his hand.
Go on fire?
Boundless fear instantly overwhelmed him. Within a second, his vision went dark and he fainted on the ground.
But he didn't hear the gunshot from the distance.
Not to mention the countless birds in the forest that were startled by the gunfire.
