In the warm tent, Captain Korpi asked the old hunter Ino while his soldiers were looking for someone, "What else do you need?"
"The tent and enough Supplies"
Ino calculated, "The only way to snipe the opponent's division commander is to lurk for a long time, and we may only have one chance, so it is impossible to go back to the camp to rest every day."
Captain Korpi nodded, "I will prepare sufficient supplies for you. Where are the weapons? What weapons do you need?"
"It's best to have two submachine guns." Old hunter Ino Before he finished speaking, he took the initiative to change his words, "One, just one is enough, but it's best to give us more bullets."
"Two!"
Ke Erpi was particularly generous, "Not long ago we just ambushed a Soviet team and seized several submachine guns from them. You can go and see later. Just grab whatever weapons you need. As long as you can I am willing to invest in sniping and killing their division commander. In addition, in addition to their division commander, I will also find a way to kill the communication troops and patrol troops they sent out."
"No problem." The old hunter Ino said simply, "Then I'm welcome."
Corpi nodded, and after a moment of hesitation, he pulled out the Luger pistol on his belt and handed it to the old hunter Ino. "I'll lend it to you first. Remember to return it to me when you come back."
Ino took the pistol and looked at it, then put it on his belt, "Lend me your telescope too." "Okay."
"What else do you want?" Captain Korpi picked up the telescope on the table and handed it to the other party.
"The Soviets will send us the rest." Before Ino finished speaking, a young man's shouts came from outside the tent.
Ino drank all the coffee in his hand, "It seems that Mika has arrived."
"Come back alive," Captain Korpi said solemnly.
"I will come back to return your pistol and telescope"
After the old hunter Ino said that, he opened the curtain and walked out first. Wei Ran, who was treated as a transparent person almost the whole time, stood up and followed the former out of the tent.
At this time, outside the tent, there was a sleigh parked big enough for three people. But the sled was not pulled by the sled dogs that Ino mentioned, but by two unusually strong reindeer with big tree branches on their heads.
Beside the two reindeer, there was a young man wearing a tank hat and goggles with a big smile on his face. Just looking at the thin fuzz around the other person's lips, you can tell that he is probably less than twenty years old.
Is this person Mika Raikkonen?
Wei Ranke will never forget his return mission. According to one of the requirements of the cowhide book, he must assist Mika Raikkonen of the Civil Guard to snipe the commander of the 163rd Soviet Infantry Division. In other words, this young man with a sunny smile is the final protagonist?
Just when he was stunned, the old hunter Ino also issued aAsked his question, "Didn't I ask you to use sled dogs? Why did you bring reindeer here?"
"Sled dogs eat meat"
Mika shouted while The two reindeer turned around and explained, "The reindeer only need to eat grass roots and bark. Not only can we bring more things, but they are also quieter than sled dogs and will not attract the Soviets like last time."
"I think you just can't bear to part with those sled dogs," Ino explained noncommittally, and asked Weiran to get on the sled, and continued to ask, "What did you bring?"
p>
"Deer skin tent, wolf skin blanket, stove, kettle and venison." Mika replied while dragging the reindeer forward, "I even brought several animal traps."
"Did you bring the bear oil?" the old hunter Ino continued to ask.
"I brought a big bottle, it will definitely be enough for us."
"Uncle Ino, what are you bringing bear oil for?" Wei Ran, who was almost ignored, asked curiously.
Ino explained in an easy-going manner, "Use it as lubricating oil for our weapons. Ordinary gun oil will freeze at this temperature, but as long as you mix a little bear oil into it, it won't be necessary." Worry about being frozen. In addition to weapons, we can also apply some on our skis to avoid freezing."
"It can also be applied to the face and hands to prevent frostbite," Mika rushed to explain," Are you not from here?"
"I am Victor, from Vipuri." Wei Ran borrowed the origin that Captain Korpi found for him without any psychological pressure.
"Sooner or later we will take back Vipuri from the Soviets!" Mika said confidently.
"It's difficult..."
Weiran muttered secretly, before long, Finland will sign an agreement with the Soviet Union, and the city called Vipuri will also It will be renamed Vyborg, and even if the Soviet Union collapses decades later, it will not return to Finnish hands.
The three of them chatted for a while before the sleigh parked next to the tent with two openings where Wei Ran had turned in his loot when he first arrived at the camp.
At this time, several long boxes were neatly stacked around the tent, and various captured weapons were neatly placed in categories. Several young girls were talking and laughing while camouflaging themselves with white animal skins attached to the butts of their guns. This reminded Wei Ran inexplicably of the similar disguise method he learned on the train to Inta with Jima.
"Girls, let me pick out some weapons. This is the order of Captain Korpi." The old hunter Ino got off the sleigh and took out a glass that was only the size of a toothpick jar from his arms. The bottle was handed to one of the girls, "These condensed milk are a gift for you."
"Thank you, Uncle Ino"
The leading girl took the glass bottle and looked at it, then He put it into his apron pocket, and when he saw the sergeant who was following their sled nodding, he asked, "What weapons do you need?"
"Two twoSubmachine gun, give us as many drums and bullets as possible. "Ino paused, "It may take a long time for us to come back. "
The girl's expression changed, and she quickly took out the condensed milk she had just put into her pocket and gave it back to Ino, "Come back alive, and I will get weapons for you right now. ”
The young girls who were busy immediately opened the boxes around them. There were not many submachine guns in them. In addition to two PPD submachine guns produced in the Soviet Union, there was also a Somi 31 , and even in the corner, there is a German MP28 submachine gun with a cracked butt.
"What kind of gun is this?" "While Ino was selecting a submachine gun, Mika bent down and took out two rifles from another long wooden box without a lid and asked.
"We seized them this afternoon. It’s also the first time I’ve seen him. "One of the girls in charge of wiping gun oil replied.
Wei Ran, who originally focused all his attention on the two German MP28 submachine guns, looked back, and then a surprised expression appeared on his face. The two guns Mika took were the AVS36 and SVT38 semi-automatic rifles equipped by the Soviet Union during World War II. If the time were pushed back a few months, these Finns might have been able to capture the SVT40, an improved version of the SVT38, during the continuation of the war.
“Daddy Ino, can I get one? Mika turned around and asked, "This kind of rifle I haven't seen before might be very useful." "
"Anyway, your sleigh is big enough." As the old hunter spoke, he had already moved two Soviet-made PPD submachine guns, along with several matching drums and ammunition, to the sleigh. < /p>
Hearing this, Mika happily put the SVT38 with the rod fixed on one side on his shoulder, and then handed over the Finnish Mosin Nagant placed on the sled. That girl.
This is a rare opportunity. Wei Ran pointed at the damaged MP28 submachine gun in the box and asked, "Are there any 9mm bullets for this gun? Can you give me some? "
"Let me look for it, there seems to be something else." The girl who was nearest turned around and walked into the tent next to her. Soon after, she came over with a small box and handed it to Wei Ran, "That's it. There are too many. We don’t use many of these bullets. "
"That's enough," Wei Ran said happily after taking the bullet. This box contains 30 rounds, which is enough for him.
Get enough weapons. , Mika led the reindeer, and under the leadership of the sergeant, he received enough food for them to eat for a week and two small barrels of coal for heating. By the way, Wei Ran also found an excuse to beg for a full kettle. Kerosene finally left the camp in the dense forest in the long night.
In the fast-moving sleigh, Wei Ran's body was tightly wrapped in a wolfskin blanket, with only the muzzle of his submachine gun. Exposed. Under the warm wolf-skin blanket, Wei Ran's hands were loading bullets one by one into the magazine of the only pistol he could bring.
Next to him. Ino, the old hunter, is also busy rushing meThere are bullets in the drums of the machine guns. The three of them can have two submachine guns, which is already extremely high-end equipment. After all, the entire company of about a hundred people is only equipped with less than ten submachine guns in total. This is because it was not long ago. It was because some PPD submachine guns were seized from the Soviet Red Army before, and the only heavy firepower of the entire company was only the Maxim water-cooled machine gun seized a few hours ago.
Under the guidance of Ino from time to time, the sleigh drove in circles for nearly an hour before stopping on a small highland on the edge of the forest. Outside the forest, on a hundred-mile road. The ten-meter-wide frozen lake surface, and on the other side, is another forest.
"The prisoner was captured near here"
Ino lay on the thick snow and whispered while holding a telescope to observe the situation outside the forest, " He came out of the forest opposite. Maybe the division commander and their headquarters were hiding in that forest."
"Shall we go there?" Wei Ran asked, lying next to Ino. .
"Don't worry, let's wait here to see if they will continue to send communications troops out before making a decision." Ino whispered, "Young man, be patient, we still have time. "A lot."
"What day is it today?" Wei Ran asked in a low voice. He had wanted to ask this question for a long time, but he had never found the right opportunity.
"Mika, what's the date today?" Ino asked the question to the young man lying on the other side of him.
"On the 25th," Mika replied without hesitation, "That's right, I just went to Sally's house yesterday to give her a birthday gift."
"When do you plan to do it?" Marry?" Ino took the wolfskin blanket from Mika and spread it under her body, then lay down again and started chatting.
“Let’s wait until the war is over.”
Mika’s young face was filled with happiness. “We will get married when we defeat the Soviets. We have already planned it. Go to Oulu for your honeymoon and experience life in a big city."
"Since you are already planning to go to a big city, why not go to Helsinki?" Ino asked with a smile, "I heard it is more beautiful than Oulu. "More."
"We don't have that much money." Mika shook his head in distress, "I am also planning to buy a radio for Sally, but I can't spend the money on useless things. "
"It's good to be young"
The old hunter Ino sighed, put down the telescope and said, "When you get married, I will give you a radio. Okay, Mika, let's take Victor to set up the tent. I'm afraid we'll have to wait here for a long time before we find an opportunity."
"Follow me"
Mika waved to Wei Ran and led him into the forest for more than two hundred meters until he found a large enough pine tree. Then he handed him the shovel in his hand and said, "Put away the snow around this pine tree." Dig it out."
"How big will it be?" Wei Ran took the shovel and looked at the pine tree, which was dozens of meters tall.Due to the cover of the tree crown, there was a fairly small snow nest under the pine tree.
"A radius of one meter and a depth of one meter are enough. Remember not to knock the trunk of the tree to shake the snow off." Mika said as he stepped out of the excavation range with his feet. Even the exit is drawn in detail. Then he walked towards the sleigh in the distance and steered the reindeer into the depths of the forest.
When Wei Gas finished the excavation work in a hurry, Mika also rushed back. In such a short time, the sleigh was already filled with fresh pine branches and a few arm-thick pieces. A small pine tree that is two meters long and cut straight.
After checking Wei Ran’s work results, Mika asked the former to spread the pine needles he brought back at the bottom of the snow pit, and then placed the pine sticks evenly on the central trunk. and secure it with deerskin rope.
"Help me wrap up the deerskin," Mika said, motioning to Wei Ran to hold a corner, and the two of them worked together to wrap up a large roll of furry deerskin. On the newly erected wooden frame.
This is not over yet. After tying the rope, Mika, with the help of Wei Ran, put a thin layer of white camouflage cloth around the outermost part, and finally dug out Wei Ran. The snow carefully moved back to cover the corners of the tent.
Just when Wei Ran thought the construction work was over, Mika signaled him to stay away, and he got into the tent and hit the tree trunk hard. For a moment, a large amount of snow fell from the tree trunks and fell evenly on the tent, forming the most perfect camouflage.
Carrying a small stove that was not too big and getting into the tent, Mika had already laid out three wolfskin blankets on the soft and thick pine needles, and even hung a wiping dryer on the tree trunk. A clean kerosene lamp.
Although this small lamp is not too bright, it is enough to provide illumination, and because of the layer of deerskin, there is no need to worry about the small amount of light being noticed by the outside world.
Light the heating stove with the firewood you brought, and then place the kettle filled with snow on top to slowly heat it. Mika was already sitting on the wolfskin blanket on the side, turning over and over to study the rifle he had just received.
"This gun holds so many bullets." Mika pulled the bolt again and again to eject all the bullets inside.
"The Soviet Union's new semi-automatic rifle," Weiran couldn't help but explain, "This gun fires much faster than the Mosin Nagant."
"Have you ever used it? ?" Mika directly handed the rifle in his hand to Wei Ran, "Teach me how to take it apart"
"I don't know this"
Wei Ran quickly waved his hand, he I really don’t know, and the reason why he knew this gun was because he checked a lot of information before coming to Finland, thinking that he would not be able to use it if he encountered it. As for how to disassemble this gun, he didn’t understand it at all. After all, this gun is not like the Mosin Nagant, which has a huge stock. It is not easy for him to find one to practice with.
Mika didn’t care when he heard this.After studying it under the weak light of an oil lamp, I actually dismantled the gun into parts.
After carefully wiping every part clean and applying lubricant mixed with bear oil, Mika put it back together, and then said proudly, "Nothing better than Mosin." Nagant is much more complicated, but it is definitely easier to use than Mosin Nagant."
"The Germans thought so a few years later."
Wei Ran muttered to himself. While warming the fire, he watched Mika wrap the animal skin on the butt of the gun, while secretly recalling the historical process of this battle.
Today is the 25th, and if nothing else happens, it must be the 25th of December. In other words, two days later it will be the day when Finland launches a general attack on the Soviet 163rd Infantry Division. This battle will last for two days, and finally end with the defeat of the 163rd Division.
Historical records are correct, but how to help the young man sitting opposite to snipe the division commander, and where to get the camera to complete the shooting task, but Wei Ran has been troubled.
Thinking of this, Wei Ran took the initiative to ask, "Mika, what did you do before?"
"Before? Before the war?"
See you Wei Ran nodded, Mika lowered his head again, and answered while fiddling with the weapon in his hand, "I am Ino's father's neighbor. Before the war, I was the local ranger. I usually give him food when Ino's father hunts." "Be a helper."
"Are you from Suao Musalmi?" Wei Ran asked tentatively.
"We live in Ahola further north. You must have never heard of this small place, but it is now occupied by the Soviets." Mika looked at the weapons wrapped in animal skins. , asked Wei Ran, "Are you from the city?"
"Why do you say that?" Wei Ran looked at Mika curiously.
Mika said proudly, "There is no country person who can't build this kind of hunting tent. Only you city people will ask me how big and deep I need to dig."
Wei Ran burst out laughing when he heard this. Just when he was about to say something, the old hunter Ino opened the thick deerskin curtain from the outside and said, "Come out and do me a favor. There is a small group of Soviets below."
< p>After hearing this, the two quickly picked up their weapons, got out of the tent, tied up their skis, and followed Ino back to the observation point."A total of 12"
Ino handed the telescope to Mika and explained while he was observing, "They are probably the communication troops sent by the other party or Patrol, let's go along the lake and find a quiet place to wait for them." Wei Ran raised the telescope handed over by Mika and saw clearly through the reflection of the snow. Those Soviet Red Army soldiers clumsily advanced on skis.
It was these people who deserved their misfortune. According to the information he found, the 163rd Infantry Division was first established in Tula, and its base camp was in Novgorod, which was far away and much warmer than here. In other words, they simply cannot adapt to the severe low temperatures near the polar circle.Cold environment. Not to mention that most of them simply don’t have enough warm clothing to withstand the cold.
Now that we compare the performance of the team in the telescope, it is indeed the case. If they want to find the 44th Division on two legs on skis, I am afraid they will freeze to death without even having to shoot. halfway.
