After some careful consideration, Ivan finally made the final decision to adopt the tactics mentioned by Lin Hua. If it does not work, it is not too late to switch back to the tactics mentioned by Bukov.
In the past, if we attacked such a small high ground, one company would have been enough. But after several months of fighting, the troops were seriously attrited, so two companies must be used to attack at the same time. If the first company and the second company were to go into battle at the same time, then
He did not have enough reserves in his hands, so Ivan said to Bukov and Lin Hua: "Bukov, Misha, the first round of the attack will be completed by your two companies." Then he looked at
Leskov, "The troops directly under your company and battalion form the second echelon."
After the three company commanders waited for Ivan to complete the task, they replied in unison: "Yes!"
Lin Hua returned to the company, called the three platoon commanders over, and briefly explained the combat mission to them. Andre asked nervously: "Comrade company commander, will we move towards the enemy's position during shelling?"
Will he be accidentally injured by artillery fire?"
Lin Hua looked at Andre and said to him sincerely: "Second Platoon Commander, the purpose of our adopting this tactic is to reduce the fire damage our army suffered when attacking the high ground. Even if it is accidentally injured by artillery fire,
The casualties are also within our tolerance." Seeing what Andre seemed to want to say, he raised his hand to stop him and added: "When the whole company attacks, they will use the 'three-three' system assault like yesterday.
Tactics', Seryosha, Christopher and I will form a team, and I will personally lead the charge."
Before waiting for the bombardment to begin, Seryosha, who was in the same group as Lin Hua, handed him a bulging and heavy backpack, and at the same time said: "Misha, take this backpack with you later.
It will come in handy when you go to war."
Lin Hua took the backpack containing ammunition and food from Seryozha's hand, and said to himself that this backpack is useless during an attack. It will take a lot of time to take out the ammunition. But it is okay not to bring it.
No, otherwise after the few bullets you carry with you are used up, you will have no choice but to fight with the Germans on bayonets.
After the shelling started, Lin Hua saw several plumes of smoke rising from the high ground. The helmets swaying faintly in the trenches immediately disappeared without a trace. They must have gone to find a place to avoid the shelling. Seeing that the time was right, Lin Hua
He nodded to the platoon leader not far away, signaling that the attack was ready.
When the platoon leader saw the signal sent by Lin Hua, he immediately blew the whistle hanging around his neck. Following the whistle, the soldiers of the third company hidden in the trench climbed out of the trench one after another, in groups of three, carrying
With his gun in hand, Bukov bent over and trotted towards the high ground. But Bukov, who was in another part of the trench, saw that the third company had taken the lead and quickly issued an order to attack. He followed the third company and rushed towards the high ground occupied by the Germans.
The shelling on the high ground had just begun, and Malinin and Batrakov, who were staying at the regiment command post, also heard it. They quickly came to the lookout, raised their binoculars and looked towards the high ground in the distance. When they saw the soldiers of the second battalion,
Actually, when the bombardment was in progress, Batrakov began to approach the German position. Batrakov couldn't help but frowned and said loudly: "What's going on? What's going on? What did Major Ivan do? He
How can he let the soldiers charge to the high ground during the artillery bombardment? Isn't he afraid that the artillery shells will accidentally injure his own people?"
Regarding the uncharacteristic fighting style of the Second Battalion, Ma Lining did not express any opinions. He just held up his binoculars and quietly observed the commanders and fighters approaching the high ground, wanting to see the high ground where hundreds of commanders and fighters shed their last drop of blood.
, will it be captured by Major Ivan’s troops?
After the German army was shelled, except for one machine gun that was left as a guard, the rest returned to the hiding place to avoid the Soviet shelling. Based on their own experience, the two machine gunners believed that the Soviet army would attack after the shelling ended.
Then they launched an attack on the high ground. So the two men squatted in the trench and smoked, not observing what was going on down the hillside at all.
After the deputy machine gunner finished smoking, he felt a little urgent to urinate. He stood up and prepared to find a suitable place to solve the urgent problem. After standing up, he accidentally glanced towards the hillside and suddenly felt a sudden urge to urinate, which he had been holding for a long time.
His pants flowed down. After a moment, he shouted at the top of his lungs: "Russians, the Russians are coming!"
The machine gunner who was still squatting in the trench stood up quickly when he heard his deputy shouting. When he saw the Soviet troops in groups on the hillside, he broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly put the gun hanging around his neck
Holding the whistle in his mouth, he blew it as hard as he could while rushing towards the machine gun.
Lin Hua's three-person team rushed to the front of the entire team, and everything went smoothly at first. When they were still 1,780 meters away from the trench, the German machine guns suddenly fired.
"Hidden!" Lin Hua shouted, and then he jumped directly into a nearby crater. Fortunately, Seryosha and Christopher's reaction was not slow. Almost at the same time that Lin Hua fell to the bottom of the crater, they also
They jumped into the pit at the same time. However, the two groups of soldiers following behind were not so lucky. They fell one after another under the fire of German machine guns.
The German officers and soldiers who were hiding from the shelling in the concealment first heard the machine gunner blowing his whistle wildly outside, and then heard the sound of machine gun fire. They knew that something was going on outside, so they rushed out of their hiding place and scrambled to get into shooting positions.
Use intensive firepower to resist the Soviet attack.
Ivan, who was staying in the command post at the foot of the hillside, saw through his telescope that his troops were suppressed by German firepower. He quickly called a soldier and ordered him: "Go tell the comrades in the mortar platoon and let them
Knock out the enemy's machine gun."
After hearing Ivan's order, the mortar platoon fired faster. However, due to the small number of mortars and the small caliber of the artillery, the damage effect on the German troops was limited. The machine guns on the high ground were still firing.
It went on and on, suppressing the commanders and soldiers of the second battalion on the hillside, unable to raise their heads.

Seryosha, who was hiding in the bomb crater, listened to the sound of bullets whizzing past his head, and asked Lin Hua loudly: "Misha, what should we do now?"
During the charge just now, Lin Hua had already taken a general look at the surrounding environment. Hearing Seryosha's question, he quickly took off his backpack, took out a few grenades from it, and fired at Seryosha and Christopher
Said: "I will throw the grenade out later, and we will use the smoke generated by the explosion as cover to quickly rush into the crater in front. Do you understand?"
"Understood." Seryosha and Christopher nodded, and took out grenades from their backpacks.
"Boom, boom, boom!" The grenades thrown by the three men raised a thick cloud of smoke in the open space in front. The three took advantage of the German army's sight being blocked, quickly jumped out of the crater, and after running forward a few steps,
They fell into a new bomb crater. Although the German army discovered their group and fired more than a dozen guns at their hiding place, they did not cause any harm to them.
The three of them used this tactic and gradually approached the German position. But when they rushed into the bomb crater for the fifteenth time, Lin Hua asked Seryosa breathlessly: "Seryosa, we are still far away from the German position.
How far?"
Seryosha thought for a while and replied: "Misha, I calculated, it's about twenty meters away."
Lin Hua took out the only two grenades left in his backpack, handed them to Seryosha, and at the same time ordered him: "Seryosa, I now order you to throw the grenades into the German positions."
Seryosha took the grenade from Lin Hua's hand, took out another grenade from his backpack, added the two grenades given by Christopher, and tied the five grenades together with ropes. Do
After all this, he sat in the crater and pulled the string suddenly. Then he roared and threw the cluster grenade with white smoke in his hand backwards.
There was an earth-shattering "boom", and Lin Hua, who was lying in the crater, felt that his internal organs were slightly displaced by the shock, and then the bloody limbs and internal organs fell from the sky, clattering on the bodies of the three of them.
Lin Hua stood up suddenly and saw that the German position was filled with thick smoke, and the enemies who had been shooting wildly were no longer there. He didn't care whether the Germans had been killed by cluster grenades, but jumped out of the crater and shot
The rifle was raised high above his head, shouting: "Come on, comrades, charge with me!"
Although he was shouting at the top of his lungs, he felt like he couldn't hear anything. His ears had been deafened by the explosion just now. Lin Hua took the lead in jumping into the trench with a rifle, and happened to see an unkempt man with a blackened face.
The black German soldier was covering his head with one hand and holding on to the wall of the trench with one hand, trying to stand up. Lin Hua stepped forward with his gun and stabbed the opponent to death.
