Bourne: Command and Conquer

Chapter 282, Pirates

 “Continue searching.”

 “Group of three. Must be visible to each other.”

 Zhou Yang gave the order.

The guard platoon then spread out into the reed marsh.

　　Unable to answer.

 Could it really be the Japanese who killed him?

  Involuntarily grabbed a handful made in Hanyang. This is the standard equipment of the national army.

 The ocean is a bottomless pit.

  “There are Japanese people.”

 But when you get to the sea, it’s just a matter of following the sheep.

 Compared with industrial powers, this rifle output is really shabby. Not even a fraction of others.

The enemy may be hiding in the reeds and firing black guns.

 “No. Navy…”

 Unless there are two people. One chased out from the left. One chased out from the right. The angle between them is about 30 degrees.

 “Then there are two people.”

Pirates are lawless!

 As long as you’re not targeting an important goal, you’ll be fine.

In this kind of close-range shooting, the trap is still very advantageous.

If you say you want to demonstrate, how can you demonstrate if you kill people in such a reed swamp?

 He indeed has little knowledge. Not even knowledgeable.

Most of the army uses weapons made in Hanyang. Or other homemade rifles.

 Zhou Yang noticed Zhang Yong's actions.

"Then why don't you go and clean it up?"

　　Hold up the telescope and observe.

However, therein lies the weirdness of the problem.

 It seems that this is not necessary.

Zhou Yang completely believed it.

It is too dangerous to fight the Japanese invaders in the reed swamp.

 There is a map display, which is very convenient for calculating the shooting angle. There are also obvious footprints on the beach.

　　However many armies can be filled in, it will not be enough.

 “The war is now in chaos. Think of the bandits everywhere.”

 Is it Chongming Island?

 The Japanese veterans in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War were all perverts. It cannot be measured by ordinary people.

Sure enough, I continued walking forward and found two rows of completely non-intersecting footprints.

 Zhang Yong inspects the rifle.

 Otherwise, there won’t be no time to load bullets. Loading a magazine is not difficult.

 It is basically certain that the other patrol soldiers should have died inside. Even if no body is found yet. Keep going and you'll definitely find it.

 Frankly speaking, the soldiers of these nine patrols are worthless.

"I know!"

 He only had a guard platoon of thirty men. Facing the vast reed marsh. There is simply no way to search them all. Going in was a waste of effort.

 He held a shell gun in his hand. Uses a 20-round long magazine. For fear of insufficient firepower sustainability.

 This point will be deeply felt by the Japanese army in the next few years.

"Except for the occasional pirates." Zhou Yang replied, "But there is no road here, and the pirates are too lazy to walk."

 Zhang Yong was speechless.

 Only dense reeds can be seen. There are also crooked "channels" among the reeds. Maybe it was stepped on by the patrol soldiers.

Other than that, there are no other clues.

 You are an officer and a soldier! Isn’t it a matter of course for officers and soldiers to suppress bandits?

Also ask why?

  If you are a team of teachers, with your level of consciousness, you must write at least 5,000 words of self-criticism...

 Unexpectedly, the second red dot entered the edge of the map again.

 In almost remote places, there are bandits running rampant. Some have two to three hundred people. There are also cannons.

 It is speculated that it may be due to panic. Didn't have time to reload.

 You are the staff officer of the Garrison Command, and you ask me why?

　　　What the hell…

 You mobilize elites like the 87th and 88th Division to eliminate the pirates. Otherwise, it would be suicide.

 He also discovered the danger.

 Since it is determined that all the patrol team was killed. The next thing is how to end it.

 “Stop moving forward!”

 Still shot in the back. Also fatal with one shot.

  “Really?”    “You are really ill-informed.”

 He did not dare to take it lightly in such a dangerous place.

 Zhang Yong was calculated from the perspective of shooting.

but!

 At the same time, two more bodies were found.

 “Back up!”

 Zhang Yong did not explain.

 “Pirates?” Zhang Yong seemed to have heard a very strange term.

Who will use the army to eliminate pirates?

 After digging out the warhead, it is also a 79 rifle bullet. The warhead was also cracked.

 They are all ordinary soldiers. This has been investigated before. No one has any special background. Killing them makes little sense.

Oh, a special mention. After the last explosion at the Jinling Arsenal, Zhang Yong learned that the official Chinese rifle had not yet been officially put into production.

  The display distance with a radius of 200 meters cannot actually ensure safety. There is still a possibility of being sniped.

 It seems like a storm is coming?

 Behind the reed marsh, it should be the Yangtze River estuary.

 Everyone’s finger was on the trigger. If there is a situation, fire immediately.

 Zhang Yong suddenly became alert.

 “Why go to the purge?”

Zhou Yang felt uneasy. The search cannot be continued.

 What is the murderer’s purpose?

 In other words, why did the murderer do this?

Simply to shoot nine patrolling soldiers?

 Just a navy with a few broken ships?

 Expect them to suppress bandits?

 But I have to admit that there is really a huge division here.

 As long as you see the target, it is a shuttle.

 Both rifles showed signs of being fired.

 Looking at the sky east of the reed field. Gloomy.

 The output is not high either. Three thousand a month.

So. Is the murderer simply bored?

 Just simply want to kill a few people to vent your sins?

 Can’t figure it out.

 “To the east, about fifty feet away.”

 Haha, there are really two Japanese invaders.

 The problem remains unresolved.

"Is not it?"

“There may be two murderers.” Zhang Yong said after careful consideration.

 Hurry back to the reed marsh.

The result is…

 Seventy-seven. Seventy-six. One seventy-six. Two two three

 The Hanyang-made rifles carried by the security regiment soldiers were also collected.

 “That’s right. Bandits. Pirates…”

 Very alert.

Zhou Yang waved his hand quietly. Guard platoon soldiers pulled the body out.

 “How do you know?” Zhou Yang wondered.

 Fortunately, in the reed swamp, the submachine gun is actually quite useful.

 After coming to this era, many things have subverted his understanding. Pirates are one of them.

His guard platoon only has flower traps and may not be a match for the enemy. The flower trap's range is too close.

 Suddenly, a red dot cuts into the edge of the map from the east.

 The famous Garand M1 semi-automatic, but more than 5 million were produced.

  “Where?”

 There are Japanese people!

Then, the remaining five people must be in front. Deep in the reeds. It's more dangerous over there.

"Why…"

 “Sir!”

Zhou Yang immediately gave the order.

 Zhang Yong was asked.

If the patrol had not come here on their own initiative, no matter how arrogant the pirates were, they would not have been able to go to Baoshan County to kill them.

 So, there must be some reason for this...

 “You’re weird?”

Without thinking, Zhou Yang himself grabbed a handful of Hanyang products.

Even without a scope, some Japanese invaders could shoot from 200 meters away.

 There must be something crucial in the middle...

If there is only one murderer, after killing the security soldier, he must walk a long distance before he can reach another angle and shoot the last security soldier. Obviously, there was not enough time.

 What does this mean?

  Indicates that the engagement time should be short.

 Zhang Yong retreated. Came to a pile of sand. There happens to be a shooting position here.

 Still shot in the back. It means the murderer is after them.

There is only a blank map. There are no place names.

 The map shows that there seems to be a large island in the middle of the Yangtze River Estuary?

 What happened to the pirate patrol?

 Even important waterways like the Yangtze River Estuary. As long as the pirates are not targeting important ships, the navy basically doesn't care. I can't control it even if I want to. There is no such strength.

　In terms of establishment, there are at least fifteen main regiments.

Those fierce and deadly main divisions of the Japanese invaders, on land, one division can defeat 100,000 Chinese troops. But on the ocean, the combat effectiveness is zero. A few bombs can send a regiment to feed the sharks.

 “I smell his breath.”

“Where are there no pirates on the coast now?”

 What a demonstration!

 Another M1 carbine, produced in greater quantities. More than 6 million pieces.

“There are several bandit troubles on Chongming Island.”

 As long as he has a few guns in his hand, he dares to dominate the mountain and become the king. Robbery and looting of homes. Killing and selling goods.

 Except for a few main German weapon divisions, which are equipped with original Mauser 98K, the ones used by other general troops are all made in Hanyang. Used but not old.

"what you do?"

 Be dependent on the mountain and eat the mountain. Draft by water. Since on land, grass can be turned into bandits. Of course it's also possible at sea.

 He lay down. Set up the Hanyang-made rifle. Aim at the location of the Japanese invaders. Finger on trigger. Quietly waiting for the Japanese invaders to approach.

 That’s right, banditry is very serious everywhere now.

 The five bullets in the barrel of the gun have all been used up. But no new bullets were loaded.

 The same goes for the national army.

If the enemy sneak attacks and kills several people, the loss will be huge.

look up.

 Zhang Yong was taught obediently.

 Unfortunately, the map does not show place names yet.

Zhou Yang also gradually fell behind the team.

 At this point, no one dares to move forward.

"Yes."

 However, the navy only has so few people and so little strength, how can it be wiped out?

During the huge Pacific War, tens of thousands of Japanese troops were sunk into the sea during transportation.

　What year is it? And pirates?

 It seems to be the twenty-fourth year of the Republic of China. There are actually pirates at the mouth of the Yangtze River?

 If everything goes well, it will be 30,000 pieces a year. Yield is very low.

 Put this situation out to sea. And so on. No wonder.

“Pirates are a matter for the navy. What does it have to do with us?”

No matter how many soldiers there are, there is no way to go to sea without ships. No matter how elite the troops are on land, they are all landlubbers when it comes to sea. The combat effectiveness is zero.

American military planes bombed back and forth, and the Japanese transport ships sank one by one. No matter how many Japanese army troops there were, they would not be enough to kill them.

"you know?"

 What is this patrol doing here? No motive!

If it were on land, it would be too difficult, too difficult, too difficult to destroy a main force of the Japanese invaders.

 Zhang Yong understood immediately.

 That is a matter for the navy.

 The murderer may have gone away. But it is also possible to remain hidden among the reeds.

  Check the body again. There are indeed five more magazines. Five rounds each. Twenty-five rounds in total.

 The flower mechanism’s insurance has been opened long ago.

 He was aware of the subtleties and sensed the danger from Zhang Yong's movements.

"What?"

 Look at the gunfire, no one heard it.

 The famous Bobosha is also ferocious, with more than 5 million at every turn. It was simply terrifying.

 Order to slow down and stop advancing.

 Zhang Yong followed the team.

"Well…"

“Who is there in the reed swamp in normal times?” Zhang Yong asked casually.

 The second body was found.

 Group of three people, divided into a dozen groups. Start your search carefully.

 So, two years later, when the all-out Anti-Japanese War broke out, the number of formal rifles in China was less than 100,000.

 When setting off on patrol, each person carries five magazines. There were five rounds of ammunition loaded in the chamber.

"My guess."

 They should be the ones who killed the patrol team.

 Perhaps, if we capture them alive, we will know the answer.
