USSR 1941

  Chapter 69 Landmines

   Another tank, a few German prisoners, plus a group of soldiers wearing German uniforms... Although these uniforms make them look like zombies, Shulka believes that this is enough to deceive the enemy.

   After all, this is at night, and more importantly, they don't need to completely fool the enemy.

   Just like it is now, it was seen through by the German army when it was more than 30 meters away from the enemy.

   But this does not affect the outcome of the battle.

   Following Lieutenant Venyakov's order, the tank opened fire, and two shells "boomed" and exploded near the German defense line, and then the machine guns on the tank "squeaked" and spewed flames at the German army.

While the tanks were suppressing firepower, the Soviet soldiers invariably pulled out grenades, ignited them, and flung them towards the German positions... Close combat grenades are the deadliest weapon, especially rows of grenades, which are in the enemy's trenches Even if the enemy is not killed or injured by the explosion, it will be affected by the sound and shock waves and temporarily lose its combat capability. At this time, if you launch a charge at this time, it is not called a charge, but for those enemies who have been bombarded and lost their minds. A knife or a bullet is added to the body.

   This is the situation at this time. After a burst of explosions, the Soviet soldiers rushed up with bayonets.

  Shuerka rushed to the front, which was a very bad experience. He had never rushed to the front of the team, even the bombing of the tank was not counted.

Because bombing tanks can at least lie on the ground and crawl forward under the cover of corpses, but now they have to charge forward with the fastest speed with their guns in hand. There is no cover in front of them. As long as there is an enemy on the opposite side, raise the gun and lightly Pull the trigger and Shulka is over... Human life is so fragile sometimes.

   Fortunately none of this happened.

When Shulka rushed into the trench with his rifle in hand, he was the first to face a wounded officer, whose cap had been blown off, allowing Shulka to see that his head was bleeding and not fully After regaining consciousness, he fumbled for something at his waist in a panic.

   Shulka hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and plunged the bayonet into the officer's chest.

  Blood splattered, the officer screamed, and his whole body curled up like a shrimp and twitched continuously.

  Sometimes it is more difficult to kill a defenseless foe than a comparable opponent.

   Difficulty comes from psychology:

  If the opponent is evenly matched, then you know that in this struggle, you will die or I will live. If you don’t kill him, he will kill you. So you can do this with peace of mind and do your best without any guilt in your heart.

  But it would be different if it was an opponent who had no power to fight back... While killing him, Shulka felt a bit of chill in his heart, as if his humanity was escaping from his body little by little.

  Shuerka could only tell himself again and again that it was right to do this, he was touching the pistol on his waist, and if he didn't do so, he would kill his comrades in arms.

  The second opponent is a German soldier. He crawls on the ground and seems to want to escape from the battlefield without even having a rifle by his side.

  When Shulka plunged the bayonet into his back, he clearly felt a tremor from the other party because of the severe pain.

  Shuerka didn't dare to look any further, he continued to charge forward with his bayonet pointed.

   Soon, the third enemy appeared in front of him... that was a German soldier who raised his hands and surrendered.

   Shulka knew he should kill him, because he had been ordered from the beginning: no prisoners.

   This order is correct, because they are surrounded by enemies, and the captives have no benefit except adding confusion and danger to themselves.

   But Shulka couldn't do it after all. He chose to ignore the German soldier and passed him.

   Shulka could even feel the grateful eyes of the German soldier.

  However, this was unnecessary, because in the next second, the thief who was following Shulka plunged the bayonet into his neck without hesitation.

The other Soviet soldiers hiding in the dark also rushed up shouting and scrambling. They crossed the first battalion and grabbed the front and continued to move forward... This was also agreed before the war. The main task of Shulka's first battalion was The first line of defense of the German army was smashed, and then the second battalion and the third battalion took over.

   This was done because the soldiers of the first battalion were still wearing German military uniforms. If they continued to fight like this, it would be easy to accidentally injure or even cause confusion. What's more important is that they are holding German-style equipment and ammunition collected from corpses. If they continue to fight, it is easy to have insufficient supplies.

   So Shulka had a little time to rest... Although the battle had just begun, it seemed like a century to Shulka.

   But before he could catch his breath, Battalion Commander Venyakov ordered: "Take off your military uniform and change back to your weapon!"

  They wear two layers of military uniforms, just take off the outer German uniforms.

   On the other side, Major Muller, who was still waiting for the enemy to attack, also heard gunshots and explosions on the other side.

   When he was wondering, the adjutant on the phone reported to Mueller a few meters away while holding the microphone: "Major, they successfully broke through from the south!"

   "What?" Major Muller was taken aback, then jumped up from the trench immediately: "Reinforce the south immediately, they don't want to escape from me!"

   After a pause, Major Muller ordered the adjutant again: "Notify the general and let him organize other troops to surround them!"

  Major Muller may be right, because the Soviet army is still in their encirclement at this time... Breaking through the encirclement to the south is only a breakthrough, and then you must cross the German front to return to the Soviet controlled area.

  So, as long as the German army still has a chance when organized, it can even be said to be easier, because the Soviet army has left its solid bunker and has become a wandering army.

  But Major Muller thought about the problem simply. Of course, the Soviet army had a follow-up plan to get to this point.

   "We can use land mines to delay the pursuers!" Shulka asked while making plans: "Do we have land mines?"

   "Of course!" Major Gavrilov replied: "There are enough mines in the ammunition depot!"

  Landmines are a must for the defense line, and of course there are many "Stalin defense lines".

   "The problem is that we can't carry many mines!" Commissar Fumin said, "Because we don't have cars!"

   "It doesn't take much!" Shulka said, "Just let them know there are mines!"

Shulka was right, when Major Müller's reinforcements stepped on a few mines and one of the tanks was blown up by an anti-tank, they found themselves unable to pursue them...because they weren't sure how many mines were in the ground, continue If you continue to chase like this, you may suffer heavy casualties and you will not be able to catch up with the enemy.
