    Peter sat uneasily on the chair in the corridor, but as soon as he sat down, Dani stood up and said in a deep voice: "This place is being cleared temporarily. There are many people who are still coming. Let's wait somewhere else.  "

    Gao Yang and his group have a special identity, and Peter and his group of Russians also have a special identity. After Dani finished speaking, he immediately said to the staff sent by the hospital to follow him: "Arrange an office immediately, whatever  The house should be quiet enough so that it won¡¯t be seen by many people.¡±

    The conditions of the hospital were limited. Gao Yang and the others were led to a conference room with a long oval table large enough for twenty people to sit around and numerous chairs, which was good for resting and waiting.

    Gao Yang is now sensitive to the word machine gun. Just now he heard the Russians talking about machine gun fire. Although this sentence is really nothing worthy of attention in a battle, Gao Yang still wants to find out what it is.  What's going on? Because he felt that since the signal flag people specifically mentioned machine gun fire, there might be something special about the machine gun fire they encountered.

    Gao Yang coughed lightly, and then said to Peter, who was sitting opposite him: "Mr. Peter, I want to ask you something. Can you tell me what happened to your friends?"

    Gao Yang didn¡¯t want to reveal right away that he could understand Russian, so he asked in a safer way.

    Peter said without hesitation: "Mr. Colonel, now is not the time to satisfy your curiosity."

    Gao Yang also said simply: "This is not to satisfy curiosity. Their encounter may be very important to me. I just want to find out how and where they were attacked. You can tell me without keeping it secret."

    Peter turned around, waved to the Russians, and said loudly: "Hide what you can't say, and tell us in detail the situation you encountered."

    A Russian stood up and asked hesitantly: "Are you very detailed?"

    Peter nodded and said: "It's very detailed. We owe a big favor. Why are you waiting now? I'm not your captain, but I didn't let you leak the secrets. I said, I will tell you everything I can."  Speak out."

    The Russian immediately took out a folded map from his large trouser pocket, walked to Gao Yang's side slowly, spread the folded map on the table in front of Gao Yang, and stretched out his fingers on the map.  After making two gestures, he pointed at a place with his finger and said, "We were attacked here."

    Gao Yang took a look and found that the place where the Russians were attacked was in the eastern district of Damascus, already at the forefront of the crossfire between government forces and rebels.

    Gao Yang couldn't help but frown and said, "Why are you going there?"

    "sorry."

    "Oh, I'm sorry, I shouldn't ask this question, wait a moment, please wait a moment."

    The map that was rolled out was relatively small, covering only part of Damascus city, but Gao Yang remembered that if the road where the Russians were attacked continued eastward, it seemed to be the rebel training camp that had just attracted their attention in the afternoon.

    The map was marked in Arabic, and Gao Yang needed to identify it carefully. He recalled the location of the training camp that he had memorized in the afternoon. After looking at the point where the attack occurred on the map, he determined to follow that road further east.  If you leave, it will indeed lead directly to the training ground.

    I don¡¯t know whether it was a pure coincidence or there was some connection. After Gao Yang looked at it for a long time, he nodded and said: "Okay, please continue."

    "The place where we were attacked was a crossroads. We had reached the most dangerous area. At this time, a leading vehicle was here and found something not quite right. There was a garbage pile there that was not there yesterday.  At the construction waste pile, our captain stopped the convoy in time, and then his car began to retreat quickly. At this time, an explosion occurred. The explosion was very powerful, but the strange thing was that the explosion fragments were very small, which reduced the explosion power. We  The captain¡¯s car was far away, and his car was blown away. You already know what happened next.¡±

    After Gao Yang thought carefully for a moment, he said in a deep voice: "Please explain in detail the process of your battle. Also, can you tell me the approximate number of people you have?"

    After hesitating for a moment, the soldier finally said: "We have a total of five vehicles, including seven Syrians. They are behind the lead vehicle. After the explosion, the second vehicle encountered intensive machine gun fire, forming a very dense formation.  The crossfire network, the machine gun positions are here, here, and here."

    Gao Yang breathed out softly, because he found that it was getting more and more interesting. The rebels' machine gun positions were arranged in a Z-shaped pattern, with one in the middle and one on the left and right sides. It was very simple, but extremely effective and practical cross-fire.  net.

      During World War I, the Germans invented the machine gun tactic of placing a machine gun in the front and then firing at the charging infantry on the flanks.

    Today's infantry charges will not be huddled together, but must be charged in a skirmish line. The distance between people is at least ten meters. Machine guns are used to shoot at the enemy attacking from the front. They can only carry out fan-shaped attacks.  When strafing, the hit rate will not be too high, and it will only waste most of the bullets. If you need to aim at each target before shooting, it will be a waste of time, and the enemy will break through the defense line and rush over.

    "But two machine guns, one on the left and one on the right, form a cross line of fire. When shooting at enemy soldiers who are roughly lined up in a straight line, there is no need to sweep back and forth. You only need to aim at a point and fire with all your strength.

    Holding the machine gun in a fan-shaped sweep back and forth, the muzzle of the gun basically does not need to move. It just moves slightly to pour firepower at a point. It is obvious that the hit rate is higher.

    Don¡¯t underestimate the cross-fire tactic invented during World War I. The original rebels really didn¡¯t know how to use it.

    But they will now.

    Gao Yang looked at the point on the map where the machine gun positions were located. The machine gun positions on the left and right sides were about four hundred meters away. The machine gun position in the center facing the attack site was also at the same distance. At this distance, automatic control could be avoided to the greatest extent.  The threat of rifle fire has no impact on the power of the machine gun, and more importantly, this distance allows the poorly trained rebels to avoid shooting all the bullets into the sky when using the machine gun.

    Gao Yang is now very sure that the rebel machine gunners have received targeted training. The reason is very simple. The positions of the three machine gun positions are definitely designed in advance. In the previous Syrian rebels, no machine gunners would think of fighting with those far away.  He had another machine gunner 800 meters away to cooperate. One machine gun position was just a firepower point, nothing more. But now, the three machine gun positions formed a coordinated operation, a simple but efficient killing system.

    Gao Yang touched his chin and pondered for a long time. He was thinking about the fighting style of the Iron Wall Mercenary Group. After thinking about it for a long time, he nodded and said in a deep voice: "What kind of machine gun does the enemy use?"

    "There is an M2 heavy machine gun in the middle, and light machine guns on both sides, 5.56 caliber, which should be M249."

    Gao Yang patted the table and said, "Why a light machine gun?"

    "The machine gunners on both sides are hidden. It is a street, and it is an area that is repeatedly contested by government forces and rebels. I think the reason why they use light machine guns instead of heavy machine guns is to make it easier for them to lurk and establish hidden machine gun positions.  It also facilitates timely evacuation.¡±

    Gao Yang frowned and said, "Okay, I understand the area that has been fought over repeatedly. Please continue."

    "The first vehicle was overturned by the shock wave. After the enemy discovered that the convoy would not enter their fire circle, they fired fiercely at the second vehicle that entered the fire circle. All seven people on it were killed. Our convoy evacuated, and then we started  Trying to rescue the captain who was trapped in the car.¡±

    Gao Yang waved his hand and said, "How did you deal with the machine gunner?"

    "Sniper, we have two snipers. The enemy's machine gunners shot very accurately, but they were not very aware of the rapid transfer of formations. Our snipers easily solved the heavy machine gun position in the front, and then shot and killed the one on the left  The machine gunners on the right side were not able to finish all the shooting. The machine gunners on the right side reacted very quickly and quickly fled their machine gun position after discovering that we had a sniper."

    Gao Yang nodded and said, "Okay, please continue."

    "Under cover, we dragged out the captain who was trapped in the car. The driver was dead, and then we withdrew until here."

    Gao Yang raised his index finger, nodded, and said, "I have a question, have you observed the appearance of the machine gunners, such as what race they are?"

    The Russian glanced to the side. At this time, a Russian stood up and said: "I am a sniper. I saw the appearance of a machine gunner on the front. He has a big beard and a local face. There will be no  Wrong, I completed a shot on the right side, I shot the deputy shooter, I didn¡¯t see the face, but the deputy shooter¡¯s hair was black, which is the most common dress for Syrians.¡±

    Gao Yang nodded and said: "Thank you, thank you very much. Well, I also want to know, based on your observations, do you think there is anything special about those machine gunners? Please think about it carefully, no matter what."

    A group of Russians were lost in thought, and soon a Russian said: "Special? The special thing is that those damn bastard machine guns shoot very accurately, making it difficult for us to move. This is not common for those bastards.  And they actually use a crossfire net to ambush, isn¡¯t that special enough?¡±

    Gao Yang smiled and said: "Yes, these alone are indeed special enough, but are there more? Are there more detailed aspects?"

    "Yes, their firepower is sustained very well. They use a two-hundred-round bullet chain, but the shooting pause is very short, which means they change bullets very quickly."

    At this time, the sniper frowned and said: "I saw a detail in the scope. Their action of changing bullets was very standard. But, how should I put it, it was much better and faster than other rebels, but it was not fast enough.  , like, well, like they just learned the correct way to use a machine gun, but they're not proficient enough yet."

    "Yes, their firepower is sustained very well. They use a two-hundred-round bullet chain, but the shooting pause is very short, which means they change bullets very quickly."
