In addition to frontal combat on the battlefield, there is also a kind of ambush shooting, ambush shooting can often get a surprise effect, resulting in the opponent before it is too late to react and is fatally hit. There is such a god-level sniper in our country, his shooting skills can be described as a hundred shots, often caught the opponent off guard, he is Zou Xixiang.
In the face of the overbearing enemy army, he thought it was better to fight than the wild meat on the mountain. Some people think that he is making a big fuss, but he can say this because he has excellent strength. History has very little record of him, only a few photographs and his glorious deeds, and we have no way of knowing what kind of life he lived after that.
Zou Xixiang was born in a poor family in Guizhou, and since he was a child, he and his father have shuttled through various mountains and forests, and learned the good skills of hunting from his father. With years of experience in hunting, his marksmanship has become more and more skilled, and almost all the wild game he looks at has been collected by him. One of his favorites is the fox, because the fur on the fox is favored by rich people, so it can often be exchanged for a good price.
Fox cunning is well known, so trying to catch a fox is a test of a hunter's skill. Zou Xixiang took the capture of foxes as his goal, he practiced his marksmanship hard, fortunately, the Emperor Tian did not pay off, and he slowly learned the skill of "arrows without false hair" in the process of continuous practice.
During the period of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, it was necessary to recruit a large number of volunteers to go to Korea, at this time Zou Xixiang had the dream of defending his family and defending the country, and resolutely embarked on the road to the Korean War. At first, his performance was not impressive, but as his combat experience increased, his shining points slowly revealed.
In the later period, the war between China and the United States fell into a state of stalemate, and the US military has always ridiculed our military equipment for being backward and shooting at a short shooting range. Our warriors could not hold back when they heard this, so they asked for instructions to fight. At this time, Chairman Mao said that he could carry out guerrilla warfare and make the US army invincible. The way to guerrilla is to fight when you see the enemy, kill one by one, and have no unified goal.
Zou Xixiang was ecstatic when he heard this, because he finally had the opportunity to show his talents. In the deep mountains and old forests, his prey is the fox, and on the battlefield, its prey is the American soldier. After that, all he did every day was to stock up on the necessities he needed, and then he would crouch down where American soldiers often appeared, waiting for them to arrive.
His method did work, and he did kill a lot of American soldiers at the beginning. But over time, American soldiers also sensed the hint of surprise tactics, so the United States began to hide itself. But for Zou Xixiang, who is good at shooting, the disguise of American soldiers is just a trick, so he specially got a scarecrow in military uniform to lure American soldiers to the bait.
As soon as the realistic scarecrow appeared, the American soldiers could not hold back and kept strafing the scarecrow. Zou Xixiang next to him found the figure of the American soldier from the direction of shooting, so the American soldier fell into the trap arranged by Zou Xixiang, and Zou Xixiang also took the opportunity to catch them all.
Soon after, Zou Xixiang's reputation as a sharpshooter quickly spread in the army, and the superiors formed a study group to let other fighters watch how Zou Xixiang defeated the enemy. In just one day, the 12 bullets he fired successfully killed 11 people.
During his participation in Korea, he killed a total of 203 enemies and used 206 bullets, which was an amazing achievement, and he was awarded second class merit.
