The 1307th puppet army made a tentative attack

On the way to the march, Quetzal used the special frequencies of the German army to make contact with the defenders of Loyev.

The commander of the garrison battalion, Collist, was greatly excited, and then cooperated with the reinforcements to fight, and the living people could escape from this ruined city. The Soviets continued to shell the city, and for several days the defenders had become accustomed to such shelling. Collist gave the order to break out, and the more than 400 people who could still fight immediately felt like they had been beaten.

However, there were still many wounded, as well as civilians, who could not escape, and Collist was ruthless and simply abandoned them.

On the other hand, the scouts sent by the Germans, they finally touched the Soviet lines.

The fighters on the front line received orders to fight when they saw someone. The sporadic swaying figures were knocked down, and a very small number of German scouts were killed, and those who were still alive quickly left the battle line.

The German scouts knew that it was not them who would take the lead, but the men of the police regiment, and the battle for the relief of the siege of Loyev was now in full swing.

The gunfire also attracted the attention of all the officers and men of the police regiment, who were steadily advancing, and after hearing the gunshots, the regiment commander ordered all the officers and men of the regiment to stop moving. These puppet soldiers who only wore black boat-shaped hats knew that they were cannon fodder, and if they knew that they retreated for no reason, they would be convicted and shot by the Germans. The soldiers were waiting for the decision of their regimental commander, and the regimental commander himself was waiting for intelligence from the German scouts.

A few scouts ran out of the forest, and a few more ran back from the plains.

"I hear gunshots, is the enemy in front?" The head of the regiment asked worriedly.

"Yes, we touched the enemy's lines, they dug a field offensive and blocked our way to the rescue of Loyev! You must carry out the orders of our regimental commander and take the lead in fighting a bloody way to save the people of Chengli. ”

"Okay...... Well......"

The commander of the police regiment sighed deeply, they were so close to the enemy that a few steps further would be within the range of their large-caliber mortars, if they had.

There was no excuse for the police regiment to stay where it was, and the regimental commander knew that it was definitely not a good idea to advance with the whole regiment when the enemy situation was still unclear. After a compromise, a battalion was ordered to make a tentative attack.

The training of the puppet army units recruited by the German army is German-style, but the training cycle is only one month. In their training, they mainly carried out queue exercises and German-style squad breakouts, and as for the training of bullets, they did not consume much. It can be said that the marksmanship of these people is average.

They were still effective as ordinary security patrols and stragglers against the guerrillas. But against the regular army of the Soviet army, its clumsy combat effectiveness was completely exposed.

Just like the German squad, the puppet army had a squad of ten people, and they formed a skirmish line, and the entire battalion set up a skirmish line with a width of nearly a kilometer, while the width of the riverside plain was only two kilometers.

They walked on knee-deep meadows, wary eyes ahead.

The elite troops led by Balzen that they were about to face had three lines of defense in front of them, and they also formed crossfire with each other. In what form the battle will end, Balzen has a bottom in his heart, but this group of attacking puppet soldiers is uneasy in his heart.

The figure of the puppet army gradually broke away from the cover of the woods, with the distant horizon, and a large number of swaying figures were discovered by the Soviet officers and soldiers, and all the junior officers who were looking forward to the telescope were raised, and they even saw the enemy's face clearly.

Balzen looked closely, he had seen too many Germans on the battlefield, and there was a difference in the faces of Russians and Germans.

The enemy who came to Fan was not the Germans, but a group of traitors to the great Motherland.

"It's really sad, is it worth it that you worked for the Germans in exchange for being killed by your compatriots?" Balzen clenched his fists, and he observed closely, and the treasure-like high-powered telescope in his hand really saw a lot of details.

The enemy was not armed with any heavy weapons, almost all of them were armed with rifles, and the number of machine guns was very small.

They are a group of light infantry, and it would be a waste to deal with this kind of unit and let the RPGs and recoilless guns of the whole army greet them in one go! After all, he had already consumed a lot of ammunition when shelling Loyev!

He instructed the heralds: "You immediately apologize to all the troops on the front line, and inform all machine gunners, RPG men, and artillery positions not to open fire for the time being, unless the enemy advances to a distance of 200 meters from the position." ”

The heralds ran fast, shouting as they ran, and the order spread quickly, even to the troops fortified in the forest.

In this way, the armament of both sides seems to have been forcibly leveled by Balzen, and even so, the puppet army is still at a huge disadvantage.

The puppet soldiers had clearly seen the churned ground ahead, and the sticks that stood up were a bad omen - they had pulled some barbed wire!

The front became more and more dangerous, but the puppet army continued to advance, and finally, they reached the bottom line of the Soviet army's 400-meter operation.

The various units began to implement the battle order, and the battle became a feast for precision marksmen!

However, there were still a few machine gunners who could not resist the urge to shoot, and the bullets rained down on the straggler line in front of them.

The puppet army was swept down like mowing grass, and more often were named by precision shooters.

The SVT40 and Mosin Nagant, which were equipped with PU scopes, became the absolute murder weapons of killing, and all the targets that appeared in the triangular scopes were shot mercilessly.

"Lie down, everybody! Lie down! The puppet battalion commander lay on the ground, frantically waving his right hand to greet his subordinates.

Most of them cleverly hid in the grass, nervously listening to the swishing sound of bullets flying overhead. There are also people whose brains are purely blank, and they actually continue to pull the bolt and shoot while half-kneeling. The few machine gunners with the ZB26 in their hands were no longer aiming much, and they were shooting all the way forward.

Balzen, with a cloud of grass on his head, reached the front-line position, showing only his eyes and holding a telescope to see the enemy's movements.

"These stupid people are like shrunken turtles, why don't you stand up and let me fight?"

His guard advised: "Commander, just let the artillerymen come on!" The enemy is always lying on his stomach like this, and the battle will last for a long time! ”

"Don't be in a hurry! Our task is to hold back the enemy and wait until our main forces arrive from Homnich, then it will be time for us to attack! ”

"However, we can crush the enemy in front of us."

"Or follow orders, don't say anything more, do your job!"

The battle evolved into two armies firing at each other, and whoever had good marksmanship and who was good at concealment was the key to victory.

The puppet army knew that the position of the Soviet army was ahead, but they fell into an extremely embarrassing situation. The commander of the puppet battalion has an unforgettable emotion: "Their marksmanship is so good, it's like there are snipers everywhere, and I will die if I expose it rashly!" ”

The gunfire weakened slightly, because the puppet army did not carry much ammunition, and once the bullets ran out and could not be replenished to the rear in time, they could only rely on daggers to protect themselves. The nervousness of the puppet soldiers also accelerated the consumption of ammunition, they only brought one base number of ammunition, sixty rounds of ammunition at the front, until there were less than ten rounds left, and one by one the soldiers died down.

Some of the puppet soldiers began to retreat, and just under the watchful eye of the battalion commander, several soldiers were retreating with their bodies half-bowed, and suddenly they were knocked down by the force - they were shot and killed!
