Expedition to Europe

Chapter 234 Detour

Setting traps is a big deal.

Hu Tingfeng and Jin Taihe are both masters at setting traps.

One of them is a tomb-robbing expert who is good at breaking traps, and the other is a trap-setting expert from the Six Gates. Together, they have developed a set of trap-setting methods that are hard to defend against.

Because we need to keep up with the times, we now have to add the method of setting booby traps.

As early as before the First World War, landmines were already used in large quantities in wars. The main purpose of Westerners laying mines is to prevent the enemy from passing through. Sometimes they even put wooden signs in the minefields, which are marked as "minefields" to avoid accidental injuries.

When the mines came into the hands of Hu Tingfeng and Jin Taihe, they immediately played with them.

Once, a staff member of the First Division said that the way the scouts laid mines was too inhumane, but Qin Zhiyuan directly pushed back.

What is inhumane?

As a soldier, facing the invasion of an enemy country, but unable to resist the enemy outside the country, causing the people of the country to fall into the hands of the enemy, this is the greatest inhumanity.

Since you are on the battlefield, don't think about those things that are not available. Try every means, even if it is despicable and shameless, as long as you can defeat the enemy, it is noble.

History books have always been written by the victors.

So many emperors who have been recorded in history, even if they eat dried meat made of human flesh, as long as they can ascend to the throne, it does not affect their becoming the pride of the Chinese nation.

What's more, no matter whether the Chinese in later generations are proud of them, they are also part of Chinese history and are inseparable from the Chinese.

Under the guidance of this idea, the scouts set up various traps and booby traps, which is really unscrupulous.

The scouts who buried the mines did not withdraw, but used the machine guns carried by motorcycles to set up a simple defensive position nearby.

They wanted to attract more Germans to come, and they could only evacuate after detonating the bombs buried on the roadside.

Soon, the Germans who heard the gunshots came over.

This time it was a one-man battle. The Germans gathered a whole platoon, abandoned their war horses and motorcycles, and searched on foot.

The vegetation in France is still very lush, and the villages are far less dense than in later generations. Many times, the place names marked on the map that look like cities are actually small villages, and because of the ongoing war, most of them are empty.

There are large tracts of forest in this area, and the terrain is also hilly. It is not easy to find the scouts of the First Division hiding in the woods along the road unless you get close to a certain extent.

Liu Shuangxi and his team have eight people, and there are more than 30 Germans on the opposite side. This was originally an unequal battle, but because Liu Shuangxi has four Lewis machine guns, they are evenly matched.

Anyway, there are motorcycles, so if you can't win, just run.

Liu Shuangxi decided to fight, so the four machine guns were dispersed, two were set up in a corner in the front, another was placed a little bit to the side and rear, and the last one was installed on a sidecar three-wheeled motorcycle, ready for pursuit later.

Even if it was eight people against thirty people, Liu Shuangxi was ready to fight a battle of annihilation.

The Germans were not searching fast, they were very careful, searching and advancing in waves. That is to say, they divided the people into two groups, one group searched while the other covered, and when the search group advanced forty or fifty meters, they would stop to find cover, and the group that was responsible for covering would be responsible for advancing.

It was indeed a lot slower, but it was safer.

The gunshots had been heard for ten minutes, and there was no more gunshots, which meant that the battle was over. Anyway, the damned were dead, so there was no hurry.

But Liu Shuangxi was anxious. Liu Shuangxi knew that the Germans were crossing the river, and maybe the vanguard troops had already formed a team and were heading this way. If the battle could not be ended as soon as possible, once the German army arrived, this annihilation battle would not be fought.

Liu Shuangxi didn't worry for too long. Although the Germans were slow, they were approaching step by step. Soon, the Germans were only fifty or sixty meters away from Liu Shuangxi's sniper position.

At this distance, although the eyebrows and eyes were still unclear, the general characteristics could be seen, such as whether there was a beard on the face, what type of gun was in the hand, the unit number worn on the body, etc.

Liu Shuangxi calmed down and put the first person on the flank of the German search line into the crosshairs, and quietly moved the finger on the trigger guard to the trigger.

Perhaps the soldiers really have a sixth sense. The German soldier who was caught by Liu Shuangxi's crosshairs was alert almost instantly. He lay down in Liu Shuangxi's position and could clearly feel that the other party's body was stiff through the camouflage of the muzzle.

The German search line had reached the time to change. If it was a little later, these dozen people would have to seek cover.

Liu Shuangxi no longer hesitated and gently pulled the trigger in his hand.

At this time, don't shout "shoot" like a cool guy. The sound of gunfire is the best order.

Ta-ta-ta-ta...

Unlike the dull sound of MG08 when shooting, the sound of Lewis shooting is crisp and clean, with a light feeling.

But the power is the same. At a distance of dozens of meters, the muzzle only slightly swept, and the line of more than a dozen German soldiers covered most of the area.

Generally speaking, the faster the firing rate of a machine gun, the greater the muzzle jump, and the more difficult it is to shoot a stable trajectory.

So when Liu Shuangxi fired, he put a towel on his shoulder, then held the gun handle tightly against it, held the handle tightly with one hand and pulled the trigger lightly, and put the other hand on the wooden buttstock and pressed down hard, almost half of the weight of his body, trying to control the muzzle jump.

Excellent shooting skills bring perfect shooting results. When a 97-round drum was fired, none of the dozen German soldiers escaped.

"Change bullets." Liu Shuangxi shouted, even if he shouted to the deputy gunner, he was shouting to the other machine gun.

Hearing Liu Shuangxi change bullets, the other machine gun changed the shooting mode from continuous shooting to burst shooting. Although the firepower density was a little lower, the gunshots never stopped.

Soon, Liu Shuangxi changed the bullets, and the machine gun started roaring again.

"Change bullets!" Liu Shuangxi heard another machine gunner shouting, so he also changed the continuous shooting to burst shooting...

The Germans were suddenly attacked, and after the initial chaos, they began to counterattack in an orderly manner. The Germans all used 98-A rifles. Although they had more people, their firepower density was not as high as that of a Lewis, so they were suppressed.

The accuracy of the 98-A was good, and the German scouts were also veterans. After the initial chaos, when the Germans determined that there were only two machine guns and few people on the opposite side, the Germans began to counterattack.

Even if there were only a dozen people left, an officer with the rank of second lieutenant would take out five people to make a detour, and the rest stayed in place to continue to shoot at the two Lewis.

Just before the soldiers who were making a detour set off, accompanied by the roar of a motorcycle engine, "tattatttatt..." a three-wheeled motorcycle carrying a Lewis machine gun appeared behind the Germans, and bullets rained down on the unprepared Germans.

Not only the Germans could make a detour, but Liu Shuangxi's scouts could also do it.

The battle had just entered a stalemate, and the motorcycle that was ready to pursue began to make a detour.

These three wheels are faster than two legs.
