Chapter 1248 Sniper’s Nightmare
There are several famous ski resorts in the area where St. Anton Ski Resort is located. St. Anton Ski Resort and Zurs Ski Resort are connected. No matter which ski resort you are in, you can enter the slopes of the other two ski resorts.
There are many famous hotels and small resorts near the St. Anton Ski Resort, and there are also Michelin-starred hotels nearby. However, Ben Suhalton did not stay in the hotel, but directly booked one. The entire resort.
Strictly speaking, the location of Ben Suharitan's resort can no longer be said to be St. Anton Ski Resort, but a resort with the highest location and the highest level of luxury among several famous ski resorts.
The cable car can directly reach Ben Suharitan's resort. After waiting for the car to drive up, Gao Yang and the three of them got on the ski cable car. On the cable car, Gao Yang and Raphael sat on one side, holding a St. Anton ski card. A schematic diagram of the field's slide is being studied.
"The altitude here is not very high, but the altitude of the resort we are going to is already about 2,000 meters. To be precise, it should be closer to the ski resort, and there are cliffs on one side and low but steep peaks on the other. , it would be too difficult to attack by force."
Raphael observed the terrain based on the topographic map in his hand. After taking a few glances, he patted Gao Yang who was looking at the map, pointed to a resort on the ridge and said: "Look over there, it's a public area, you can Take the cable car directly to get there, if we want to attack by force, we can only get there first and then ski to the resort in Suhart.”
Gao Yang scratched his head and said depressedly: "I don't know how to ski. I asked Big Dog and he didn't know either. Although he is adapted to fighting in the cold zone, he cannot fight in the high mountains and cold areas, Fork. If we don't know how to ski, Can you still fight?"
Raphael has changed his nickname to Skunk if he fights again. Gao Yang would definitely not call him a fork, but in normal times. He was still more accustomed to being called a fork than a skunk.
Raphael shrugged helplessly and said: "Boss, are you kidding? The thinnest part of the snow here is more than one meter, and it is soft powdery snow. If you don't use skis, it won't be possible." It’s hard to move even an inch.”
Gao Yang shook his head and said: "It's the ski season now, and it's unrealistic to take the cable car with weapons. If we walk, there will be dense crowds here and there are too few options. We can only travel on the roads dotted with hotels and holiday cabins. It’s only at night, and only at night, that we can get close to the resort in Suhartan, Fak, and none of us know how to ski, so just getting close to the target point is difficult.”
Raphael pouted and said: "It's not difficult, it's impossible. Boss, believe me, without skis. It's impossible for us to get close to the target point. This is not a problem that can be overcome with hard work."
After Gao Yang sighed helplessly a few times, he suddenly said: "At this height,
Does it have any impact on ballistics? "
"Yes, it definitely has an impact. The air here is relatively thin, and the impact point will be higher. Also, the wind in the mountains is very troublesome. It is difficult to judge the wind direction, and the snow will also affect your aim."
Gao Yang rubbed his chin. He said helplessly: "I guess you don't know the mountain ballistic table of bullets?"
"you guessed right."
Fighting at high altitude is troublesome. This is especially troublesome for precision shooters and snipers. First of all, the ballistic tables at low altitudes cannot be used here. Moreover, as the altitude increases and the air pressure changes, the ballistics will change every time it rises to a certain altitude. There will be new changes. Fighting in high-altitude plains is okay, but fighting in high-altitude mountains where the altitude changes at any time is simply a sniper's nightmare.
The bullets Gao Yang mainly uses now are high-speed and long-range bullets. The ballistics are inherently different from ordinary bullets. Unless he plans to measure a complete set of ballistic tables for high-altitude areas, it is better to switch to ordinary bullets.
If bullets are used, although Gao Yang does not know the ballistic table now, he can still find it. French, Italian or Austrian mountain troop snipers already have extremely complete ballistic tables, although this is confidential to the troops of various countries. Things, but they can be found with a little effort. If nothing else, Erin's father can get them in a minute, or even simpler, they can buy them from Justin or anyone else.
Gao Yang helplessly spread his hands and said, "Can you memorize the 5.56mm caliber ballistic chart?"
Raphael smiled bitterly and said: "Boss, I have been away from the mountain troops for many years. Besides, I am not a sniper. Why should I carry a ballistic chart? It has become instinctive for me to shoot at what height I reach, but you asked me to say Come out, sorry I can’t do it.”
Gao Yang waved his hand and said, "I'll look for the mountain ballistic table later. Which country do you think has the best mountain troops? Italy? France? Austria? Or Switzerland?"
Rafael shrugged his shoulders and said: "Everyone except France will do. The French troops are a bunch of rubbish, as are the army and the mountain troops. They don't know how to fight, and the ballistic tables they measured cannot be used."
Gao Yang smiled and said nothing. Ballistic tables are basic knowledge in the army. Ordinary soldiers cannot have access to them, but snipers must memorize them. No matter how bad the French army is, they will definitely not be able to learn these basic things. It’s a problem, but just like Britain and France will hurt each other when they get the chance, Italy and France will actually hurt each other when they get the chance.
At this time, Clooney suddenly said: "We are almost there. Have you seen any resort? That's it."
Gao Yang quickly said: "Quick, take a picture."
Raphael raised his camera and started taking pictures continuously. The cable car was relatively high and had a good view, so he could take pictures of what they needed more clearly.
Gao Yang looked at the terrain and memorized several shooting positions overlooking the entire resort. As a precision shooter and sniper, it was his instinct to find shooting positions. He could tell at a glance what was suitable and what was not.
Raphael put away the camera and said: "Okay, I will step on the snow again later. The snow quality should not change much, but if it is the kind of harder frozen snow, it will be easier, but I I think it’s unlikely.”
Gao Yang pressed his watch and whispered: "What's the height?"
"2133 meters."
"2135 meters, yes, the difference can be ignored. Just check it visually. There is a pine tree on that mountain peak right there. What do you think the height is?"
"What do you want to do? Where to set up the shooting position?"
"Yes, you can control the entire resort wherever you put the rabbit."
"Give up, it won't work anywhere."
"Why?"
"There will be an avalanche. One shot will ensure an avalanche."
"I know the noise can cause avalanches, but the slope there doesn't seem to be that big, so that's not the case?"
"Well, this has little to do with the slope. It does. But, how should I put it? The location is too bad. There won't be too much snow falling from the top. The threat comes from below. If it causes an avalanche, it will take people with it. Those who came down, even if they hugged the tree and did not slide down with the snow, they would be trapped there after the avalanche and could not move."
The cable car was about to end, Gao Yang said urgently: "Don't talk about this, where can I shoot?"
"Where, did you see it? That ridgeline, where the sound of shooting will not gather, can minimize the possibility of causing an avalanche, and even if an avalanche occurs, it will not block the retreat."
Gao Yang and Raphael, who were observing the terrain, had no intention of hiding it in front of Clooney. The two of them were discussing how to attack a famous ski resort. Again, even if No. 13 must be killed in the end To solve the problem, we must not let go of the investigation operations that need to be done.
Clooney smiled bitterly and said: "You two, we are here, you'd better stop discussing the current topic for the time being."
Gao Yang spread his hands and said, "Okay, now it's time to listen to your orders."
The cable car reaches its end. This cable car line only leads to the resort in Suhart, so there will not be any other skiers coming down the same cable car line.
After getting off the cable car, we walked for a while and arrived at the resort. The resort is not very large. There are seven buildings in total, all built on a cliff platform extending outward. One side is a cliff and the other side is a cliff. Not a high mountain top.
The resort looks very dangerous, but safety is not a problem. This kind of place that looks extremely dangerous, but is actually very safe, and where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery, is the favorite of the super rich.
Without asking, just by looking at the building topography, Gao Yang could tell where Suhart would live. It must be the one closest to the edge of the cliff. It was not the biggest but the most luxurious, and the entire area could be seen from the window. The house in the valley and the other houses in the entire resort are scattered around the most dangerous house like stars. If Suhart doesn't choose the best house to live in, then there is really no need for him to keep it. Check out this resort.
The three people walked towards the resort. The resort had no walls, so naturally there was no door. There were only four people standing outside the building. After seeing Gao Yang and the others, two people immediately came over to greet them.
Both men were wearing thick ski suits, but they were wearing plaid turbans on their heads, which clearly showed their identities. It was unclear whether they were carrying any concealed weapons, but they definitely did not carry long guns.
"Stop, this is private territory now. If you are tourists, please leave."
Clooney took a step forward and whispered: "My name is Clooney. I came here by invitation. The two people behind me are my entourage."
A guard took out a walkie-talkie, whispered a few words, and then waved his hand: "Please follow me." (To be continued)
