Chapter 236 Sniper Killing

At three o'clock in the morning, Wei Ran took out a piece of camouflage cloth bought in Yakutsk from his backpack, tore it into long strips and wrapped it around his shoes. Then he put on gloves and then walked to the On the shore, he took out the platoon boat he had just put away and pushed it into the lake.

The boat slowly approached the area where the bonfire was once lit. As the distance between the two got closer, his movements became softer and gentler.

Lifting up the night vision goggles removed from the sniper rifle, Wei Ran searched through his memory, and then discovered that at the easternmost edge of the lake, there was actually a tree with the largest diameter connected to it. A small lake no more than 100 meters long.

Between the two lakes, there is a natural embankment about fifty meters wide that divides them into two parts. And parked on the edge of this natural embankment was a tin boat with its engine removed.

Looking across this dike, in the coniferous forest on the easternmost edge of another small lake, there are three or four tents scattered here and there. On the edge of those tents, there are also There are many oil drums scattered around, and four or five water pumps are arranged on the shore.

However, the moment he put away the raft and boarded the embankment, a manic and low barking dog came from the direction of the tent on the other side.

This was good news. Wei Ran immediately got into the coniferous forest on the shore, climbed up a pine tree quickly, and then looked over with a telescope.

Soon, the barking of the dog was stopped, and a flashlight beam jumped out from one of the tents. Through the beam of the flashlight, Wei Ran could vaguely see that the person coming out of the tent was the middle-aged man who had refueled at the gas station.

But not long after, the other party turned around and got into the tent, and even the light of the flashlight dimmed. Wei Ran, who was hiding in the pine tree, thought for a while, put away the telescope, and carefully moved to the shore, picked up a stone, and threw it into the lake.

With a "pop" sound, as the stone was smashed into the calm lake, the dog that had just calmed down began to bark again.

Soon, the flashlight that went out not long ago came on again, but before Wei Ran could react, the middle-aged man who came out of the tent took out a pistol and pointed it at his head. The trigger was pulled!

Following the clear gunshot, the other tents also lit up their lights one after another. Upon seeing this, Wei Ran, who had succeeded, immediately hid his figure and looked over with his binoculars.

In the clear and sharp field of vision, the men holding flashlights or wearing headlamps could see each one more clearly, but these people did not have the smugglers he was looking for at all, and even sent smugglers away. The few guys who came over didn't see it either.

However, it was through the other party's light that he could see clearly the ivory tusks piled in the center of the tents, and even several pictures of fresh bears supported by wooden frames. Skin.

This is really good news. As long as these people have local products that need to be sold, there is no fear that the smuggler will not pass.Come on, the only uncertainty now is when the other party will come over.

After all, he and Ji Ma had known each other for such a long time, and he was an experienced hunter. Wei Ran naturally knew that the gunshot just now was just to scare away any wild animals that might be around.

If you challenge the dog responsible for keeping watch at this time, as long as the other party is not stupid, he will definitely guess that there is someone hiding around.

Because, before the people on the other side got into the tent, he quietly retreated to the shore. After clearing the vague footprints on the ground, he quietly rocked the boat and stuck to it. Walking along the shore, he returned to his hiding place not long ago.

After collecting the platoon boat, Wei Ran cleaned up the traces again and took the backpack left here. With the help of the night vision device in his hand, he carefully walked westward towards the road in the coniferous forest on the north bank of the lake. direction.

The forest in this season is far more dangerous than in winter. Not only the hungry Siberian bears have awakened from hibernation, but the wolves that have survived the long winter nights are also more ferocious than in summer. But what is more dangerous is the traps set up by hunters and the swamps hidden under dead branches and leaves.

Fortunately, this place is less than 400 meters away from the asphalt road built in the Soviet era. In addition, there will be no heavy trucks pulling logs in the forest, so it is relatively close to the south. The logging road is better.

It took a full hour and a half, Wei Ran found a retreat route in the forest that went straight to the roadside, and walked back and forth along this route two or three times until he was sure. I could already run along this route and quickly run back to the van parked on the side of the road without the help of night vision goggles. Then before the sun rose, I could control the boat again and follow the shore of the lake. I carefully observed the coastal environment again.

Fortunately, there is only one abandoned and collapsed hunter's cabin on the south bank of the lake, which makes Weiran's subsequent operations even more convenient.

When the early morning sunlight reflected on the calm lake again, Wei Ran had already returned to his hiding place on the north bank of the lake, lying on the row boat that served as a bed, wearing a camouflage cloth.

As for whether the smuggler will come here, Wei Ran doesn't know, but he is confident enough. After all, this place is too close to Nizhnibiegashe. As the saying goes, "the first to get the moon is the tower near the water." If either the smugglers or the mammoth ivory diggers on the other side of the lake have a sound mind, both parties will definitely be there soon. will meet.

Sure enough, after waiting half-asleep and half-awake in the boat for a whole day, with the roar of the engine, the iron boat on the east bank of the lake also drove towards the pier on the west bank at sunset. .

Seeing this, Wei Ran rubbed his face to wake himself up as soon as possible, and then took out the anti-tank gun mounted on the gun truck from the metal book!

Mao bent down and stepped the two frames of the artillery truck into the wet soil. Wei Ran sat on the horizontal board of the platoon boat, wearing a camouflage cloth and slowly shaking the ratchet.It became an open bolt.

Looking at the empty dock on the east coast with the help of the weird optical sight, Weiran thought for a moment and replaced the anti-tank gun with a magazine full of high-explosive bombs and matching accessories. Muzzle brake.

Prepared to shoot, Wei Ran roughly estimated the distance. From the north shore of the lake where he was hiding to the west shore dock, it was only less than 400 meters, and the distance to the center of the lake was even shorter.

For this 20mm caliber anti-tank gun, this distance is enough to deal with the Soviet and German tanks in the early days of World War II, let alone the rusty one. A tin boat.

After waiting patiently for nearly an hour, a heavy truck and a dirty off-road vehicle slowly drove to the edge of the pier. As the door of the truck opened, two men jumped out from both sides of the truck's cab. Then, as the door of the off-road vehicle opened, Wei Ran's face showed an expression of surprise.

In the high-power scope of the anti-tank gun, the little Japanese smuggler wearing a hunting suit slowly walked to the pier, and boarded the iron boat led by the two men. But the two men who got off the heavy truck had already climbed onto the roof of the truck, lying on it and setting up their guns.

"Zhongmen vs. sniper?"

While teasing secretly, Wei Ran flipped the gun release button with his finger, and with a soft "click", he released a high-explosive weapon. The bullet advanced into the chamber.

However, he did not rush to shoot. Instead, he waited until the iron boat was about to drive to the middle of the lake carrying the smuggler, and then he aimed at the two men on the front of the truck. What a fool, he pulled the trigger hard.

"Boom!"

As a dull gunshot rang out from the north shore of the lake, the two men on the roof of the heavy truck were also enveloped in the killing range of the high-explosive bomb. Within!

Without even looking at the damage effect, Wei Ran had already turned his gun and pointed it at the iron boat in the middle of the lake, and used the ring sight in the high-power optical sight for anti-aircraft to capture it. The smuggler who crouched under the gunfire!

After the second gunshot, the smuggler was directly beaten into two pieces by a high-explosive bomb carrying huge energy!

Not to mention, the two men who came with them in the same boat and the man in charge of driving the boat were also not spared.

The smallest living target diameter of the 20mm high-explosive bomb is about five meters, which is far beyond the size of the iron boat itself. Therefore, the exploded warhead fragments can easily Harvested the lives of everyone on board!

Ignoring the iron boat that was still moving slowly on the lake, Wei Ran moved his gun again and aimed it at the off-road vehicle that was about to turn around at the West Bank Pier. He used the crosshair to cover the driver's window and decisively The trigger was pulled!

After the gunfire, the off-road vehicle that was preparing to escape immediately lost control, drove crookedly onto the dock, and then plunged into the cold lake water.

"It saves me trouble," Wei Ran muttered as he aimed at the boat full of corpses and pulled the trigger.

The boat, which was just a thin layer of iron, was easily blown open by the high-explosive bomb. Immediately afterwards, the boat tilted its bow and began to descend rapidly. Shen.

At the same time, Wei Ran had also taken back the anti-tank gun and the platoon boat underneath him, and put all the recovered bullet casings into the food box.

Before leaving, he carefully cleaned up the traces left by the gun carriage and the vague shoe prints on the ground. Then, wearing the camouflage cloth, he walked in the dusk. In the dark coniferous forest, he ran along the retreat route that he had prepared in advance towards the van parked on the side of the road.

Back in the car smoothly, Wei Ran untied the cloth strips wrapped around his boots and the camouflage cloth on his body, rolled them into a ball, stuffed them into his bag, started the tattered van, and drove straight into the next The only car wash in the small town of Betyash.

Watching the car wash employees applying foam to the car, Wei Ran said hello, walked to the other side of the road, got into the small rented hotel, changed into clean clothes, and found a place to eat. After finishing the meal, he slowly drove the cleaned car to the public parking lot in front of the local police station.
