Chapter 202 Deployment of Troops
Starting from the climbable points on the back of the mountain and moving up to the top of the dam, Zhao Yu stationed an Asara sniper at almost every possible spot where a person could stand. Zhao Yu's arrangement amazed the newcomer Huo Yu.
"As expected of Commander Said, this arrangement almost makes the most of the terrain advantage on the dam top!" Huo Yu exclaimed as he surveyed the terrain below through the scope of his SR-25 marksman rifle from the dam top.
Including the Asara snipers recruited this time, Zhao Yu now has a total of 21 Asara snipers under his command in the Zero Dam area.
Under the command of Fire Rain, some of these Asara snipers controlled parts of the eastern section of the Zero Dam administrative area, as well as parts of the container area, through various sniping positions on and below the dam crest.
The other part is stationed on the road leading from the visitor center to the top of the dam.
At the same time, Zhao Yu replaced a batch of equipment for the snipers. Their equipment was changed from lever rifles and the miscellaneous marksman rifles in the hands of the newly recruited Asara snipers to semi-modified SR9 marksman rifles.
"Are these GTI operators crazy?"
"These guys are selling SKS handguards for 10 HAF coins each!" It's not that Zhao Yu doesn't want to equip his Asara snipers with better gear, it's just that the SR9 is simply not as cost-effective as other marksman rifles.
However, Zhao Yu did not neglect his Asara snipers. In terms of weapon modification, Zhao Yu uniformly equipped the SR9s of the Asara snipers with G3 platform sharpshooting barrels, silencers, practical bipods, and reconnaissance 1.5/5x adjustable scopes, which have now been reduced to 45000 HAF coins.
This modification, which doesn't even include a laser pointer, results in an absurdly low operating speed. However, it does meet the operational needs of Asara's snipers.
Zhao Yu's order was that each sniper only needed to keep an eye on their assigned, fixed defensive direction and did not need to turn their heads, just like Hudson, and be a qualified stationary shooter.
Thus, with the help of the G3 platform's sharpshooting barrel combination, the single-shot mode recoil control and weapon stability enhancement of the silencer, plus the recoil enhancement of the practical bipod, this SR9 is extremely stable.
With the addition of a 30-round magazine, firing range is also maintained.
Regarding ammunition, Zhao Yu equipped Huo Yu with M62 bullets (level 5), while the ordinary Asara sniper was equipped with M80 bullets (level 4).
At the same time, Zhao Yu also corrected the snipers' shooting habits.
In the past, Asara snipers' shooting habits were adapted to the weapons they were armed with, which were basically very inexpensive basic marksman rifles such as the Mini14, SR9, and VSS.
The SR9 made up the majority of the snipers. For Assara snipers, the Mini14 seemed to be a luxury item. Many Assara snipers even used iron sights and couldn't afford a scope.
This led to Asara snipers having a habit of firing one shot, pausing for a while, and then firing again. However, after being equipped with new gear, Asara snipers' weapons are now able to support them in continuous firing.
Zhao Yu did indeed give that order. After seeing the operatives, he hid behind cover, set up his bipod, and began firing continuously, emptying his gun as quickly as possible.
Zhao Yu has done everything he could to make arrangements, but he's not sure how effective they will be. He'll have to wait and see in actual combat, since that's the only true test.
Faced with the operators, on a map like Zero Dam that was designed specifically for searching, attacking, and withdrawing, Zhao Yu could only make so many arrangements.
"Boss, who's that new guy?" Outside the East Building manager's room, four adjutants stationed at the dam and the captain of the chief's guard had already assembled. Hakim Ziani looked at Commander Said in front of him and asked cautiously.
"He's your new comrade-in-arms, his codename is 'Fire Rain.' From now on, he'll be in charge of commanding and training the dam's snipers," Zhao Yu calmly explained to his adjutants.
"Boss, Hafk's men are arriving soon, and I want to lead my troops into a real battle with them," Hakim Ziani said to his superior, Said.
"Yes, boss," Karim Ben Ali echoed.
Zhao Yu currently has seven adjutants under his command. Only Hakim and Karim do not have direct subordinates, because the two of them almost always act with Zhao Yu to carry out the "Red Owl Hunt" plan.
Although they were traveling together with the leader's guard, Commander Said's leader's guard had a captain who was on the same level as the adjutant, so they couldn't command him!
"Karim, the flamethrower and shield bearers of the dam are your responsibility, and you will be in charge of the underground area of the administration building."
"We must guard the entrance from the material transport channel into the underground administrative area, forcing those agents to be on the surface and confront us head-on!" Zhao Yu looked at Karim Ben Ali and gave the order.
"Don't worry, boss, I've learned all the techniques you taught me. I guarantee those operators will be helpless!" Karim Ben Ali looked at his superior officer and gave him a respectful salute.
The so-called skill refers to the fire-laying technique of the Red Owl's personal guard flamethrower soldiers.
The flamethrower adjutant of the Crimson Owl Guard series only needs to lightly tap the ground to spread a layer of flames, and the consumption is extremely low.
This allows the flamethrower adjutant of the Crimson Owl Guard to spread fires on the ground almost indefinitely, since the skill is often ready again before the stored fuel is used up.
It is perfectly suited for guarding the entrance to a one-way passage for material transportation.
Although the fire damage that Karim spreads on the ground is not instantly lethal, if any operator tries to charge into the administrative building through this layer of fire, the other flamethrower soldiers and shield soldiers nearby will definitely teach them a lesson.
After all, the flamethrower soldiers' flames can directly damage the operators, and the shield soldiers on the dam have all been equipped with 93R pistols with level 4 ammunition, making their shooting accuracy far superior to before.
As for the flamethrower's skills, Zhao Yu really didn't know any. He could only choose the Asara faction's operator, Red Owl, to enter the map. However, the operators were too ingenious. One operator who had played the Red Owl Hunting Mode for a long time figured out this way of playing and posted it online.
After it was posted online, Zhao Yu successfully captured it, and then handed it over to Fury and Karim.
"Hakim, gather the rocket troops at the dam and form a suppressive artillery unit under your command."
"When the time comes, you will lead them and the guard team to operate together, providing fire support for the guard team and suppressing enemy fire!" Zhao Yu looked at Hakim Ziani and continued to make arrangements.
