The reconnaissance company moved north. After the night attack, the ninety soldiers finally rested after trekking for several hours.Ω
After the thrilling battle, everyone was very tired. This battle was just too much destruction, and almost no loot was gained. What was available was just the two occupied German machine gun forts, and the general machine guns in them were removed and returned.
There are five magazine boxes.
During the operation, the large number of bullets carried by the troops had been consumed too much. There were only two shells left in the recoilless rifle, all the captured RPGs were used up, and all the explosive bags had blown the enemy aircraft to pieces one by one.
Including ordinary soldiers, most submachine gunners only have two bullets left, and precision shooters only have one base number of bullets (originally they had four bases). Therefore, the two captured machine guns and 1,500 bullets became
Must be quite important.
Natasha leaned against a big tree. The march was finally over. She had the opportunity to stop to check her firearms and eat something. Apparently, the whole company stopped and then set up camp.
As soon as the troops stopped, Balzen immediately called all the squad leaders to conduct post-war statistics.
He was very excited. He looked at the disgraced soldiers and said, "Comrades, you have done a good job. Our mission has been completed. Now you each report the situation of your own squad."
The squad leaders reported in turn, and the results were very bad. The entire company lost one-third of its men, and ten of the ninety people who survived were slightly injured.
These wounded people were very lucky. They were all shot in the arm, and the bullet penetrated some muscle tissue and did not cause more serious injuries (if the injuries were more serious, they would not be able to escape). The wounds of these people were treated urgently, and the blood
It's no longer flowing, it's just that I can't fight anymore.
After each reported the casualties, each squad began to report on the ammunition problem. When everything that needed to be said was said, everyone's expressions turned ugly.
Balzen smiled bitterly and said: "We brought a lot of ammunition with us when we set out, but now, 80% of the ammunition has been consumed. Our luggage is lighter, and now we can hurry up."
A squad leader raised his hand and asked the exact question that everyone wanted to know. "Company commander, the intelligence is factual. The enemy has a regiment of troops chasing us. Is this true? The enemy we captured before, and Na
As a result of Tasha’s investigation, is this information really the truth?”
"Of course, you don't have any doubts."
The squad leader shook his head: "Company Commander, I am not denying the results of our investigation. If the future is destined to be a new battle, I will accompany you. We have eliminated many enemies in this battle, and I have also killed a few with my own hands. If the enemy
If you appear in front of me again, I will fight without hesitation until I die. However, our troops are too few, and our weapons and ammunition are also somewhat limited..."
Balzen understood what he meant, waved his hand and said: "The deputy division commander gave me a nickname called the Death Squadron. We are not afraid of death, but no one wants to die cowardly. When the enemy learns that the airport has been attacked, they will definitely
A large army will be sent for reinforcements, and we must retreat!" After that, he patted his calves, "Comrades, we are just like the Red Army predecessors twenty years ago, with linen tied to our calves. This ensures that we can attack long distances.
Now let us run on two legs, and the enemy will not be able to catch up with us!"
Therefore, Balzen ordered the troops to take advantage of this morning to rest. After eating dry food at noon, the whole army continued to move.
He spread out the map he carried with him and sketched a retreat route with a pencil. The subsequent march route would be based on this unless something unexpected happened.
Of course, what the squad leader said makes sense. What if we collide head-on with the enemy's reinforcements? Who can guarantee that the enemy will not only attack from the southern highway, but also part of it from the north? You know, this place is completely
The German army had absolute control over the enemy-occupied area.
He also set up sentries outside the camp for early warning. Balzen hoped that he would never encounter the Germans. Even if he did, it would be best not to fight and avoid encountering the enemy by avoiding them.
However, bad things still happened.
At 10:30 in the morning, Balzen, who had already rested, was woken up by the sentry who came back urgently. For no other reason than there were crowds of people moving due north. The sentry particularly emphasized: "There is a large group of people moving in the forest, and there are many of them."
Balzen sat up immediately and immediately ordered: "The whole company wakes up immediately and gets ready for battle."
You really come here just for whatever you are afraid of. How come there are large-scale crowd activities here? Everything can only mean one thing: the German reinforcements have arrived.
The soldiers got up one after another, and Natasha was no exception. She had relatively sufficient bullets, so there would be no problem if she fought.
Like other soldiers, she half-crouched with her weapon in hand, and each combat group entered a state of preparation for battle, waiting for the company commander's next order.
Balzen originally hoped that everyone would hibernate so that the enemy would not be able to see them. They would go to the reinforcement airport when they should, and it was best not to pay attention to the abnormalities on the march.
However, the sound of gunfire disrupted everything. It was not just one shot, but several shots.
This was when the sentry was discovered and the enemy was shooting. The highly nervous sentry responded reflexively. Suddenly there was a loud burst of gunfire, and the gunfire fired indiscriminately. Several sentries also ran back to report the news.
The reconnaissance company received shocking news - the enemy was huge in number and its offensive front was huge.
"Oops!" Natasha's heart was beating fast. She realized that a cruel battle was about to break out. The enemy was not far away, and the girl even felt the vibration of the earth keenly.
She tried hard to remain calm on the surface, but she said to Igor tremblingly: "We are really about to enter a new battle."
"Yes, and it's very cruel. We attack more with less." Igor answered openly. His weather-beaten face turned around and asked: "This may be our last battle. Are you afraid of death?"
War is always so sudden. A few hours ago, the reconnaissance company was killing people at the enemy's airport. Not long after, the reconnaissance company was about to suffer a disaster?
Natasha didn't want to die. She had killed too many enemies. The reason she fought in the first place was to avenge her relatives and compatriots. Her hatred was gradually diluted by life in the military camp, and she had experienced too many wars and her whole body became numb. Only one
There is a person, Chief Berekov from China, who is like a beacon and a relative, giving him guidance and care.
If you die, you will never see him again! The girl murmured: "Sir! This may be my last battle. I don't want to die. I still want to be with you..."
However, company commander Balzen did not have so many personal relationships with his children. He was a professional soldier, and retreating was not his creed. Balzen roared: "Comrades! There are enemies in front, and there are enemies behind. If you advance, you will die, and if you retreat, you will die."
Die! What should we do?!"
"Fight! Fight!" the soldiers shouted in unison.
"Okay! We are soldiers and will never be cowards. If we retreat, we will collide with the enemy's regiment and we will die miserably. If we attack, we may be able to break out of the encirclement successfully. Comrades! Stand up.
"
Natasha had no choice, her random thoughts stopped abruptly. She stood up, holding her rifle, waiting for orders.
"Comrades! Mount bayonets! Bring necessary luggage, advance in offensive formation!"
The girl immediately pressed the spear, and the sVT4o turned into a short spear. When Igor saw the girl's face, she had always been extremely confident, but at this moment there was a hint of hesitation.
"Natasha, follow me for a moment. If there is a hand-to-hand fight, I will be your backer."
What she fears most is this. As a thin woman who is only 1.7 meters tall, she can be a sniper, but can she become a close-range fighter like ancient warriors? Then she will be like a hare, able to be carried around casually.
The girl nodded weakly, now she could only rely on this strong man.
Balzen spat and picked up Shasha: "The whole company! Follow me to attack!"
This is a desperate attack by the reconnaissance company. Since the enemy is already close at hand, the only option is to pierce the enemy's offensive front like a chisel, and then rely on powerful maneuverability to throw the enemy away.
The whole company advanced in a triangular formation, and the first row was almost entirely filled with submachine gunners. As everyone sprinted, they shouted "Ula", and soon the enemies appeared in front of everyone.
Their formation turned out to be very wide, and they were also advancing quickly, shouting and firing guns.
The submachine gunners in the front row of the reconnaissance company were also unceremonious, and the barrage they formed knocked down many enemies at once. However, there were no flaws in the enemy's attack. The gap was filled, and the enemy continued to charge.
Balzen realized that hand-to-hand combat at zero distance was inevitable, and this would be the last battle of the reconnaissance company!
The two armies were getting closer and closer, and the forest was about to become a new battlefield. However, when the two armies were about to see their bayonets see red, everyone was dumbfounded!
The charging team all came to a halt. Balzen's eyes were bloodshot and his steps stopped instantly. Because right in front of him, these enemies were not Germans at all!
These people wore khaki boat-shaped hats and held Mosin Nagants in their hands. The half-meter-long spears were extremely beautiful. They were not enemies! They were Soviets.
The two groups of people who were about to engage in a bayonet battle stopped one after another. Both sides were stunned for ten seconds. In front of Balzen, someone suddenly asked: "Are you Red Army soldiers?"
"Yes!" Balzen replied solemnly. (To be continued.) 8
