1942, I lived on hunting

After eating and drinking, the members of the security group began to enter their respective defense areas according to the arrangement of the adjutant. The method of arranging their defensive positions was also very simple. In fact, they dispersed and entered the houses outside the village, relying on the houses to build a circle of simple positions, and arranged some sentinels on the outermost side of the positions. The machine gun firepower point was arranged a little inside, following the principle of saving time and effort. The location chosen was either high or convenient for construction. As for whether the shadow would affect the shooting range or whether crossfire could be formed, they didn't care. The grenade launchers were not arranged at all. They belonged to the technical branch of the army, and were generally some old hands. If there was a real exchange of fire, they just needed to know where to aim and fire. They couldn't shoot accurately at night, so why bother? Anyway, the guerrillas didn't have heavy firepower, and having a light machine gun was an incredible configuration. As long as they didn't get close to them, the security group, as the party with more fierce firepower, would definitely have the advantage. Besides, the combat qualities of the people in the security corps have always been like this. It is excellent if they can hide in a safe place and fire their guns to resist when a fight breaks out. Don't expect them to abide by the regulations and set up their positions honestly and diligently. If they have that time, they might as well take a break!

Night combat in this era is actually still very difficult to fight. First of all, many people have night blindness due to malnutrition, also known as night blindness. They can't see the road clearly when marching, let alone aiming and shooting. In addition, there is no means to effectively distinguish between the enemy and us. It is easy to fight in a mess with simple commands and differences in clothing. It is said that the Eighth Route Army and the People's Liberation Army and the Volunteer Army, which are of the same lineage, are very good at night combat. That is also forced out under the circumstances of having to do it, because the revolutionary army during the entire World War II and the Korean War has never been the party with superior weapons and firepower. How to defeat the enemy without thinking of some ways? You give them the enemy's firepower configuration and logistical conditions, and see if they are still willing to fight night battles all the time? There has always been a saying among military fans: Since the Korean War, the rabbit has suffered from a phobia of insufficient firepower, and the eagle sauce has suffered from a phobia of night combat. The rabbit desperately pursues the superiority of weapons and firepower coverage, while the eagle sauce is obsessed with studying night vision equipment. In the end, both sides still live like each other, and then they become what they hate!

Generally, the military would try to avoid night battles. It was not until the late 20th century when the technology of night vision goggles matured that large-scale night battles began again. Represented by the Middle East war launched by the United States, various countries began to equip themselves with night vision equipment on a large scale.

The security team had bad luck today. It was cloudy and cold tonight, and the village was so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of you. They met Li Hao, who was equipped with the most advanced night vision goggles. As long as Li Hao didn't get carried away, it would be like a tiger entering a flock of sheep to deal with this group of useless people in the security team!

Li Hao was lying on the earth slope with a straw stick in his mouth. He wanted to wait until around 4 a.m. when everyone in the security team was asleep before taking any action. However, he discovered a problem he had been ignoring - he didn't have a watch and had no way of knowing the exact time!

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, China had actually imported a lot of timekeeping tools such as pocket watches and clocks. Wristwatches came a little later, and by the 40s they were also more popular among the wealthy class, but they were still expensive. Li Hao had seen a watch on the wrist of Liu's daughter before, but as a modern man, he didn't care at the time. It was just a watch. Many modern people no longer need clocks, a mobile phone can do it. Now I think about it, I should have taken it.

Slowly, the village became quiet. Except for some sentinels who were still hanging around doing their duties, everyone else had stopped their activities.

Li Hao was getting bored waiting. These useless members of the security team were like chicken blood today. They had been tossing and turning for so long before they were willing to settle down. It would take at least another hour for them to all fall asleep. Out of boredom, Li Hao went around to a small forest behind the village to see if he could use a slingshot to hunt some prey.

With the thermal imaging mode of night vision goggles, it was easier to find prey in the dark. After a while, Li Hao shot a few turtledoves and gray magpies in the woods with a slingshot, and sold them directly to the system in exchange for some points to make up for the expenses of the past few days. It was about time, and the useless people in the security team should have gone to bed, so he began to move towards the village.

Many people feel that the touching of sentries and catching tongues in film and television works are magical. Most people don't understand why a living person doesn't know when someone touches him, and can't even make a sound when he is killed or caught. Seeing such plots in film and television works is really exciting. In fact, it is very simple to put it bluntly. Touching sentries and catching tongues are an asymmetrical struggle. Generally, the personnel responsible for touching sentries and catching tongues are elite soldiers with outstanding individual combat capabilities. Some are equipped with advanced night vision equipment. When the opponent is tired and careless, they unexpectedly use their own ability to crush the opponent to kill or catch the opponent. And don't think that the success rate is 100%. Those in film and television works are often processed. In reality, various emergencies are unpredictable. There are also many cases where the action fails and then turns to strong attack or retreat. Moreover, in film and television works, people usually use bare hands or some knives, silent pistols, etc., but in reality, there are not so many requirements. As long as you can complete the task, you can use any equipment you have at will.

For a novice like Li Hao, it would be more effective to use a hammer or an axe to touch the sentry. The security team is basically not equipped with steel helmets, but cloth caps. With Li Hao's current physical fitness, a hammer can basically kill the opponent in one shot, no matter which important part he hits. The opponent won't even have a chance to shout. As long as he is careful not to encounter some young people who like to hold their fingers on the trigger, he can basically kill the sentry without alerting the enemy.

Li Hao first scanned the enemy situation in front of him, and seeing that there was nothing unusual, he crouched down and slowly approached the village.

A sentry was hiding in a small vegetable garden outside a courtyard wall. There was a fence in the garden to protect him from the cold wind at night. He could not be seen from the outside because of the half-man-high fence, but he could observe the outside by just sticking his head out. This guy was quite cunning. The position he chose was quite hidden. Most people would not choose such an unprotected position. He must be a veteran. He sat on a low stool holding a rifle, nodding his head.

A group of three mobile sentries with guns on their backs slowly turned around, then turned around and walked somewhere else, probably to take shelter in a corner of the village.

There is a machine gun firing point on the roof not far away, but there is no one guarding it now. They must have already gone into a house to sleep.

At this moment, Li Hao moved quickly. The sound of his small steps was perfectly masked by the cold wind, and he soon arrived in front of the vegetable garden fence.

Li Hao held a pistol in his left hand and an axe in his right hand. He walked a few steps to the fence and leaped into the vegetable garden.

The sentry just opened his eyes and looked up when he heard the noise, and the back of an axe hit his head. With a slight muffled "puff", the sentry fell to the ground in the direction of Li Hao's axe. Li Hao thought about it, and the rifle in his hand went into space.

Li Hao squatted down and glanced around, seeing nothing unusual, he took out the sentry's bullet bag and the two grenades in his pocket and put them into the space. By the way, he touched his other pockets and found nothing valuable, only some documents and the like. It seems that he is also a moonlighter!
