In 1940, in a field hospital on the European battlefield, the Finnish soldier Heych woke up. Half of Haihe's face was completely unconscious, and he glanced at it with the afterglow, only to find that the entire chin was wrapped in thick bandages.
At this time, Haeh remembered that he had been shot in the cheek, which would make him lie in the hospital. The nurse next to him told Haehog that the doctor would operate on him to make sure his face was not disfigured.
However, just as Hych was waiting to return to the battlefield, news suddenly came from the front. It turned out that Finland and the Soviet Union had ceased hostilities, and Heych was discharged from the army and became a national hero.
For more than 60 years, Haihe lived a very peaceful life, but those who lived through that war knew that this man, who was not good-looking and had scars on his face, had a very terrible nickname: the White Death.
Back in 1938, after Germany forcibly annexed Austria, it set its sights on Czechoslovakia. In order not to offend Germany, Britain and France chose to sacrifice the interests of their allies and turned a blind eye to Germany's arbitrary behavior.
Everyone knows that after Germany occupied Czechoslovakia, the next step was to provoke a large-scale war. The whole of Europe was shrouded in a cloud of war, and Finland, which had nothing to do with this matter, was also in danger of shattering its mountains and rivers due to the actions of the Soviet Union.
In response to a possible war, the Finnish army urgently recruited a group of new recruits, and Heich was among them. At that time, Haich excelled in target training, firing 16 shots in 60 seconds, all of which hit targets 150 meters away.
The instructor was taken aback, knowing that he had recruited a sharpshooter, but was also worried about the soldier's future. Snipers tend to be the first targets of the enemy to destroy, and the better the sniper, the more dangers they face.
Soon after, Soviet troops invaded Finland, and Heich set foot on the battlefield for the first time. After a brief period of adaptation, Hych found the rhythm of war and turned on kill mode.
In December 1939, Haich killed 138 enemy men, accomplishing this astonishing feat in just 22 days, equivalent to killing 6 or 7 Soviet soldiers a day.
In 1940, Heich had killed a total of 81 people in the first 2 months, which seemed to be a slight decline. But in March, In less than a week, Haich killed 40 Soviet soldiers, and he was the sharpshooter who had no bullets.
Under the continuous blows of Haihe, the Soviet army did not dare to show its head easily, and they began to adopt anti-sniper mode. But Haich was a sniper who was very good at disguising himself, and in the cold weather on the border between Finland and the Soviet Union, he was hidden in the snow in a white combat suit and could not be seen at all.
In order to prevent the sun's reflection from exposing his whereabouts, Heych did not even use a scope, so he circled with the enemy for more than 3 months.
On this day, Hych once again entered the sniper point and began to observe the enemy's whereabouts. To relax, Haich began to silently count the total number of enemies killed after stepping into the battlefield.
To Haeh's surprise, he had killed 505 of his enemies, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad, after all, they were also someone else's son, husband, and father.
But on the battlefield, you must not be soft-hearted, otherwise you will be punished, and Haihe is no exception. At this time, a Soviet soldier suddenly entered the sniper area and came to the rear of Haihe in a daze.
The two men met in a narrow way, and the Soviets fired a shot that directly destroyed Haeh's left jaw. Hai he stayed for a few seconds, suddenly came back to his senses, shot the other person, and then fainted, which led to the story at the beginning of the article.
