spectrum
Comrade Yang Changshun endowed in 1955 when pictures of
Although the sniper killing the enemy has been
the people's army one of the traditional tactics, but before the
Korean War, our military operations in the history of the sniper
has no full-time. This is mainly because by the historical
background and national environmental constraints, our troops in
positional warfare, confront the situation of war relatively rare,
most cases are used in warfare, guerrilla tactics, the lack of a
wide range of activities carried out attacks on conditions.
However, because of the backwardness of equipment, in particular
the lack of bullets and other reasons, starting from the Red Army,
our military has always attached great importance to the shooting
skills, in particular, a large number of training "shooter", with
minimal consumption of ammunition in exchange for the greatest
success. And now the sniper is different from our military was the
"shooter" in the overwhelming majority of ordinary soldiers came,
almost without specialized training, are also the most common use
of weapons, but they are by virtue of perseverance, determination
and indomitable fight, but made with professional snipers have also
whom staggering record. Described in this article, it is more
representative among them several ... ...
Daredevil team, "first shot": Yang Changshun
To become a marksman, in addition to shooting talent, it is more
important is hard work and practice, Yang Changshun is a typical
one.
Yang Changshun the daredevil team photo with the comrades.
Precisely because of his chest of medals obtained by killing the
enemy Emirates.
Yang Changshun County of Henan Jia, pick coal worker origin. In
1937, only 18-year-old Yang Changshun the purpose of holding
anti-Japanese to join the army came to Shanxi, Shanxi Province to
participate in the Bo-led team of young daredevil enemy. At that
time very few heavy weapons troops, war depends mainly on rifles,
Yang Changshun be determined to good marksmanship training to hand
out. He trained very hard, willing to out strength, in addition to
daily training under military subjects, issued to him all day
holding that 38-style rifles made support Jin, taking the time to
piggyback with their training, aiming branches during the day,
aiming birds , aiming at the stars, aim the lights far away, and
soon there will be a greatly improved shooting performance. Yang
Changshun willing to move head of military technology to learn, to
contact him playing in his hometown before joining the army hare
experience, summed up the amount of know-how to master the advance,
particularly good at playing sports goals. Yang Changshun was an
experience they talk about this when it said: "The purpose of
marksmanship training hard, save only one aspect of ammunition,
more importantly, against the enemy, brave and decisive action to a
shot of defeating the enemy, you shot back that he does not pile,
he will overthrow you. "
Soon to join the army returned with just a few months of Yang
Changshun the first combat troops. Before the fighting started, he
and his platoon to scout the enemy, found a group of Japanese is
300 meters away in open space on the gathering, ready to attack in
the middle of a body Kuazhihuidao the Devils officers are
indiscreet criticisms. Platoon leader on the points he Yang
Changshun said: "Xiao Yang, the Devils saw knife yet? Try your
marksmanship." Yang Changshun said nothing, estimate what the
distance will be aiming rifles from the quasi-porting to. A gunshot
and saw that on Emirates are drawn down to the ground, the other
devils immediately chaotic, Yang Changshun and platoon leader took
the opportunity to return safely. This incident caused a sensation
in the army, joined the army a few days of "Xiao Yang," so remember
the power, from this we call him "Daredevil team fired the first
shot." Soon Yang Changshun was transferred to do the heads of the
guards brigade, and later was sent to a branch Kang Da
learning.
The summer of 1940, the Eighth Route Army to meet positive
battlefield action in the North China launched the famous "Hundred
Regiments." Year by the end of October, Yang Changshun unit,
ordered in Shanxi Province Hung Ling Wuxiang County area check the
Japanese. Yang Changshun and his comrades entered the night with
the position. Before the dawn came, he found vaguely more than 200
meters away across several enemy machine-gun fortifications are
being built, the location is ambushing them this place. Yang
Changshun determined to make this the biggest threat to the
military firepower to kill, so he quietly, "Czech-style" gun
outstretched, aiming at one of the enemy is shot. As the dark, with
a large mountain range error estimates, the guns to shoot high, and
the enemy immediately hid behind the Banchi high weeds. Stay a
while and see much to complain movement, three devils they emerge
to continue the digging fortifications. Yang Changshun will scale
back a box, then hit a shot aimed at the enemy. It hit a low shot,
and fell on the edge of fortifications. The enemy that "Tu Balu"
guns are not allowed to play, then feel free to make and began to
live, the Devils look like one of the officers also unearthed in
half a body to a telescope to look around our positions. Yang
Changshun did not expect this down to make it real, and in
carefully corrected aim point, the shot kept that officers punched
a headlong devils. Taking advantage of the other two devils had not
woke up to God, Yang Changshun quickly pull the bolt, back shell,
re-loaded and aimed firing, in turn struck down the last side of a
devil. This reaction over the middle of the devils, scatter feet
and ran, but did not ran a few steps was a flood of third bullet
hit the ground eating mud went. The enemy's machine gun was never
able to complete their fortifications, Yang Changshun also
highlighted his record once again by higher awards.
Yang Changshun later followed Liu, Deng army advance with the
Central Plains, and bandits took part in the fighting in Henan.
After the founding of the PRC, he served as director of the Navy's
logistics warehouse 603, and the 10th anniversary of National Day
military parade in the naval side team leader. But Yang Changshun
rarely mentioned his outstanding record of kills, and only once
when someone asked him again and again destroyed a total of how
many devils, he just smiled and said: "There are three, 50
bar."
Hongze Lake "have arrived": Cun-Yu
By the end of October 1942, the Japanese gathered massive,
anti-Japanese base areas in Huaibei launched a sustained 33 days of
the big "sweep." Dec. 9, 4 Division I New Fourth Army Group in
Assault Qingyang base 26 after the withdrawal of Hongze Lake Chu
Kong for rest and maintenance. Early the next morning, the Japanese
and puppet troops of a 1500 gold wing over Chenye outflanking

Fourth Army in the history of the famous battle Chu Kong
begins.
Former oil minister after the founding of the General Logistics
Department of the Sun The group of more than 1 camp when he was 26
again and again long 2. He joined the army in 1939, after more than
three years of tough training, he was an experienced commander, but
also trained to have an extraordinary good marksmanship.
Soon the fighting began, the Japanese main force that is flowing
into a direct threat to the seat body 26 Conductor Cao Wei. Sun
survival rate of more than a 20 people appointed to the
strengthening of classes towards guarding Cao Wei Sun Kong the
gateway to the north. Soldiers With tens of meters long period of
transport channel, successive defeat of the Devils in cooperation
with three infantry artillery attack, the enemy temporarily into
the confrontation. Cunning Japanese army sharpshooter found a big
threat to them, coupled with a positive charge Jiugong high, they
also choose the Principal striker, climb the southeast traffic
channel more than 80 meters away from a roof of house to the roof
of thatch To cover a commanding our army to the traffic trench
shooting. As the roar of guns on the battlefield, with soldiers at
this time to ease the pressure neighbor, is offensive to the north
east gate of the enemy Cao Wei diversionary shooting, the sniper on
the Devils off guard and promote continuous casualties a few
comrades.
See the enemy army, vice squad leader Lou Xinzhi their targets,
killing four consecutive Devils, they eye on him. A shot from the
side to the bullets grazed from Lou Xinzhi head, hit the Gouyan on,
causing the Sun deposits remaining alert. Devils found sniping, he
felt the situation is very passive, must be first knocked out the
enemy snipers. Enemy sniper in the Where is it? He first inspected
the sacrifice of two comrades shot in the location and found that
bullets were coming from the southeast to fight, he immediately
thought of the houses in question. Is observed, the devils also
found his actions, "pit" of the shot to fight over, more than a bow
deposit Sun, but fortunately they caught: "I also lets you
experience the look of marksmanship!" Cun-Yu from the head of the
expense of comrades Abstract Under the cap, the top in rifle
cleaning rod, the slightly exposed Gouyan that its rebound from a
few meters to the right, picked up a 38-style rifle, pointed at the
roof of that house. Enemy really taken the bait, and soon will play
shot from the roof, the middle section through the cap. Company
commander's sight can be at this time Sun has also been firmly
caught the Devils sniper, a pinch machines, "pit" of the cuts and
the results of his corpse rolled all the way down from the
roof.
Cun-I do not particularly pleased, because he knew devils would
not easily give up the excellent sniper positions. He slightly
moved position, continue to monitor the roof. Soon, the roof there
is something flashed bright, Sun Company Commander to read, is a
Japanese helmet, but only rises a little to stop no more. He did
not hurry to shoot, but continue to be patient. Then, after a few
minutes and devils that there was no danger, and slowly half a head
appeared. Cun-Yu seize the opportunity to unite in hatred of guns,
the shot penetrated the opponent's head on. The enemy still did not
give up, they sent a third sniper, but its end and his two
predecessors. Cun-Yu for his excellent marksmanship, three rounds
of three, the results of the three Japanese, completely awed by the
enemy. Until the end of the battle, the enemy did not dare to climb

Shangganling the "sniper hero": Zhang Tao Fang
From 1952, the Korean War the enemy on the battlefield, the two
sides formed a local confrontation. Although the equipment on the
disadvantages of making the initial disadvantage volunteers in
positional warfare, but they were flexible with tactics and endless
creativity, the first time the man in the world for the attacks on
the war as a group improved in nature, with a strategy operational
form of color, that is, "cold sniper gun movement." Such tactics
and other means of defense operations positions combined, produce a
great power, as volunteers to seize initiative on the battlefield,
and then win the final victory of the war made an indelible
contributions.
Jun Zhang Tao Fong heads personally watched the shooting
demonstration. Zhang Tao Fong at this time is used by 38 rifle
"Cold guns sniper movement" appearing in the most legendary
heroes is the 24th Chinese People's Volunteers Army 72 division 214
regiment with soldiers Zhang Tao Fang 8. He is Xinghua of people,
in September 1952 entry into the war with the army, in January 1953
into the 597.9 high ground. Zhang Tao Fang was only 22 years old,
had never participated in real combat, January 29 for the first
time entered the war, and even put a 12 gun has not hurt the enemy,
but also almost cold shot and wounded by the enemy. But he called a
natural sniper, after analysis concluded quickly into the role, the
next day and killed a U.S.. With actual combat experience is
gained, the increasing figures of his kills, 15 February to 9
rounds of ammunition he destroyed seven enemy, more than a record
of his comrades, and awarded a third class time. Since then, Zhang
Tao Fang Yuezhanyueyong, 40 days will be made to consume 240 bomb
death of the record of 71 enemies with the first number as the
whole sniper. 113 when he shoot the enemy when shooting even in
sending him to the Postgraduate Course, back to the front post is
out of control, have each played in gains. During this period, he
had also sent with the enemy "anti-sniper" had staged a two
wonderful duel between the top scorer, the result is a better skill
Zhang Tao-fang, the other person killed in 2004, CCTV had on this
background of production and broadcasting through "sniper hero",
"Sniper Zhang Tao Fang" and other TV series.
In Zhang Tao Fong with the help of fellow classmate Huang
Xinghai (left) has become the death of the sniper enemy kills more
than 100 experts.
May 26, 1953, Zhang Tao Fong returned to participate in the
Second National Congress Youth League, when he once again rejoin,
the Korean Armistice Agreement has been signed into force, so his
record will never be kills cells in the figure on the 214. He began
the year on January 29 to participate in attack group to the May 25
date, less than 4 months, excluding training, meetings and other
activities, the actual war for only 32 days, total fat consumption
of 442 bombs, shoot the enemy 214 name, setting the highest record
single sniper volunteers. It is worth mentioning that Zhang Tao
Fang using a Soviet-style ride in 1944, gun, gun barrel that short,
spreading surface is larger, if not his talent with hard training
the day after tomorrow, it is difficult to achieve such good the
results. Therefore, he has won the Principal heroic volunteers, two
heroes of the title, and received a national flag Korean Medal.
1954, Zhang Tao Fong transferred to the Air Force of any fighter
pilot, retired Air Force a division office in Weifang, the
political instructor, has been retired.
Xi Xiang Zou volunteer soldiers (the) introduction to the
fellow sniper kills the experience. He sniper kill and wound in a
month to U.S. 36, and awarded a first.
North Korean attack on the battlefield in fact far from being a
hero Zhang Tao Fong one. 1,2 months in 1951, the first group of 65
Army 2nd Battalion of sharpshooters 585 are on the order of 750
rounds of ammunition and annihilating 83. Sniper killing the enemy
to carry out large-scale activities in May 1952 after the 355 was
the 40th Army Group 9 with the XU Shi-Zhen create a support trench
fortifications in trench warfare in the sniper kills a precedent,
the day British troops killed seven people, and soon it kinds of
mobile and flexible tactics in military widely. From late July to
the end of October, only 12 Army would attack and destroy the enemy
2506, consumption of fat bomb 5843, its only 11 casualties. In the
attack most active April to August, and destroy the enemy army
attacks that reached 13,600, completely destroyed the enemy's
arrogance, so that the United Nations military officers and men to
volunteer activities, Kitayama later position along called "attacks
Bing Ling. "
War in self-defense counterattack "lone hero": Rock Dragon
February 17, 1979, mother came the rumble of artillery in
southern Xinjiang, shocked the world self-defense against Vietnam
War began. Yan Long is the initial battle, a hero emerged, and he
is also the first PLA Dai war hero, the Dai people have remained
proud of him.
Dragon Rock was born in 1960, Jinghong County, Yunnan Province,
strong rural King Man, 14 years old to participate in the militia,
in March 1978 joined the army, to Zhudian 14 Army 41 division 123
regiment 5 with 4 classes when the soldiers. Although only the
class rock dragons do not understand Chinese, but his hard, hard to
make up for the language barrier, and threw himself into military
training to go. In particular rifle training. After required
courses done, rock Long also worked hard for their own weaknesses
arm strength, will be nine bricks bound together, in one fell swoop
is under 30; for the practice, according to the gun, he often lie
in the sun for the next several hours, elbow birth thick cocoon.
Hard work pays off, the first rifle shooting he made 9 of 9, I
called good, grenades thrown 56 meters, in the company, battalion,
7th regiment at the live fire, he got all the best. Just a short
time was even rock dragon 4, camp awards, and was the regiment as
shooting, bombings and military and sports model.
October 1979 issue of "infantry regiment returned fire in
self-defense war history compiled" on the manipulation of light
machine gun Dragon Rock photos
Fight back in self-defense fighting began. February 21, Long's
unit was ordered to rock along Route 73 east to the Old Street area
Nanzheng forward. 11 am, near the bridge in the distance Nanzheng
78 Highland, knives row with an enhanced experience with the
Vietnamese troops. The enemy occupies a favorable position, with
antiaircraft machine guns, mortars and heavy machine guns,
commanding the army shooting. As the backup has not yet arrived,
the soldiers had to brave enemy fire 4 points hail of bullets, side
fight back side to build bunkers, platoon Pan Kunhua unfortunately
hit sacrifice, three seriously wounded comrade negative, the
situation is very passive.
Was at stake, the high ground a scream in the most vicious enemy
machine gun suddenly does not ring, and the enemy fortifications in
the shooting have become sparse down. After a while, the severity
of the enemy toward the left side of the valley firearms suddenly
Mengsao up fortifications of the enemy also reversed direction,
toward the valley opened fire. The gap in the enemy fire, the
soldiers came to hear the valley, "Bang, bang," the semi-automatic
rifle shots. Subsequently, the right of this shot again in the back
of the enemy sounded, the enemy's firepower has been attracted to
go in that direction. Dagger row suddenly reduced pressure.
Self-defense, returned fire during the Vietnam War enemy,
I sides have carried out extensive speculative attack. The picture
shows our military soldiers and exposed for the sniper aim to
attract Vietnamese troops specially produced "false targets" of the
photo (Image from "Laoshan blue" website)
It turned out that dragon drill into the rock behind the enemy.
When he completed the task after escorting the wounded, lost
contact with his comrades, along the hills touch the enemy side of
the rear alone. When the army was found to neutralize the enemy
fire, the rock cover of dragon trees using weeds are rapidly
approaching the Vietnamese troops positions. He first climbed from
the most threatening of the four classes of that heavy machine guns
about 100 meters, shot twice and killed the enemy and vice striker,
another enemy machine-gun fire point of a onto the scene, was that
he knocked up. Then he found a circular fortifications there are
many enemies to our shooting, then the cover of intense gunfire,
one by one to the enemy "by name", series killed seven Vietnamese
soldiers. Found that bullets from the lateral of the enemy to
attack us, we concentrated firepower to fight back within the
valley, but had not imagined the dragon rock hidden in their very
eyes. In more than four hours of fighting, rock dragon calm,
tactfully constantly changing shooting positions, interspersed
shooting back and forth, but also eliminated the positions
Vietnamese troops left the firing point, then around the hill to
repair the fortifications of the three are Vietnamese troops killed
and destroyed a mortar position. Enemy sniper in the rock under the
dragon dead, or scattered, for a time was chaotic, to adjust the
deployment of our military in time for the precious time.
After the battle, rock Long before they appeared in front of his
comrades, and to use space off to tell his comrades fighting in
battle after he was this time when he was starting with 150 rounds
of ammunition (rock dragon own instruments but also to the company
for 50 rounds) only 25 made. As the post-war forces to move
quickly, can not verify the results and so even in order to report
record rock dragon, he reported a projected half a day only 22, but
certainly better than the actual figure is much higher (say 56
other people). However, when the adjacent units, 78 occupied high
ground after a Kim's house found more than 60 Vietnamese troops due
for a towed body, is an indirect validation of the dragon rock
record.
At 18 o'clock on the February 25, shop floor, the direction of
enemy forces embarked positions. Long chest hung a new rock to the
telescope captured, walking in the front row of sharp knives.
Hidden in the road side of the enemy thought he was the commander
of a shuttle to the evil that he shot the bullet, which hit rocks
two long hair in the chest. Rock Dragon honor the sacrifice,
self-defense war from the start the day just 7 days.
March 1979, 41 division committees under the rock dragon death
wish, ratify his party members, and sent back by first class merit.
In the same year on September 17, the Central Military Commission
posthumous his "lone hero" Honor.
Vietnam War in the emerging self-defense counterattack
"sharpshooters" not just as a rock dragon. 8 even squares regiment
soldiers to kill and wound the enemy of 31 to 30 rounds of
ammunition. May 1988 the Central Military Commission issued an
order to grant him "hero" title of honor.
Today, our military's equipment has been incomparable,
mechanization, information has already replaced a year of "millet
plus rifles." The rapid development of the tide of military reform,
has emerged in hundreds of thousands of "shooter" of the people's
army is still inherited our ancestors, "a bullet destroy every
enemy" and "Gunslinger spirit", and carry them, they are targeting
new goals, start a new leap ... ...
