Accurate shooting, using sniping to kill the enemy, it is just a small-scale firefight, large-scale combat, and there is no need to take special aim, what is needed is to pour the bullets as soon as possible, in the shortest possible time, the most bullets are smashed on the enemy's body, even if it cannot kill the opponent, at least to suppress the opponent's firepower.

This is the meaning of the appearance of assault rifles, compared to submachine guns, it has a longer range, more powerful bullets, and at the same time, because they all use drums, the capacity is large, and the continuous firepower is quite strong.

Under their blows, the Soviet troops on the opposite side could not raise their heads at all, their heavy weapons, which could not be deployed, were all frozen by bad weather!

The tactical choice of the Finns was quite appropriate, if they were attacking from the west, then the enemy's artillery could call on them, but now they were attacking from the east, frozen artillery, unable to turn, frozen anti-aircraft machine guns, unable to flatten.

Therefore, the only thing that these artillery can use is the Monasingan rifle, but unfortunately, how can the firepower of this single-shot bolt-action rifle be comparable to the MP40?

Bullets kept coming down, and when the brave soldiers were all killed, the rest of the people could only lie down in the snowdrift with their heads down, for fear that they would also be killed.

Under the suppression of firepower, the Finnish skiers rushed up one by one, and soon rushed to the high ground!

They held Suomi submachine guns, pointed at these Soviet artillerymen, trembling Soviets, and raised their hands.

In this way, the last support, the greatest reliance of the 44th Division, has fallen into the hands of the Finnish army, from which they can cut off the logistical supply of the Soviet army at any time.

Now, there's only one thing left, take the town of Hawira!

There were not many garrisons in the town, and when the Soviets attacked here, the Finnish troops retreated, and at the same time, the townspeople retreated, and before leaving, they set fire to their houses.

In the cold, there is nothing left for the Soviets to keep out the cold!

When the battle on this side of the high ground began, the garrison of the town, a few hundred troops, was also awakened, and they moved quickly, almost within a few minutes, they were dressed, picked up their guns, and rushed out.

It's a pity that the Finns moved faster, and by the time they rushed to the heights, ready for reinforcements, the Finnish troops, having already occupied the heights!

"Fire!" When they saw the Soviets rushing over, almost without hesitation, the fighters who had just occupied the place opened fire.

"Boom!" A 75-mm recoilless gun, with a blazing fire coming from the muzzle, and a high-explosive grenade, flying out of the muzzle, flew towards the opposite side.

"Boom!" The Soviet soldiers, who had just run out of the town, were hit by a shell, and by this time, they were already stunned.

They thought it was their own big-caliber howitzers shooting! The infantry charged towards the artillery positions, and that was simply looking for death! Therefore, although a small number of soldiers are still charging, most of them have already retreated.

When countless machine guns rang out on the opposite side, they no longer hesitated, and ran back to the east, to the east, back to their homeland!

Looking at the Soviet soldiers who were repulsed, everyone cheered, they had blocked the exit of the Soviets to retreat!

"Quick, immediately deploy your positions and prepare for the fiercest counterattack of the Soviets!" Captain Lahira shouted.

They blocked the only way for the Soviets to go home, and at the same time, they also cut off the logistics supply channel of the Soviets, and at this time, the Soviets will definitely launch a fierce attack on their side!

Everyone was busy, lighting fires, lighting torches, baking these cannons, as well as anti-aircraft machine guns, adjusting their positions, preparing to block the Latai Highway and prepare for the final general assault.

The news of the Finnish occupation of the town of Hawira in the rear reached Vinogradov's ears only three hours later, and when he heard the terrible news, his face immediately changed.

"Order our armored forces, immediately go back, open the opening, armored trucks follow, we break through the blockade behind and retreat!" Vinogradov no longer hesitated.

He didn't dare to move forward, it was no longer safe to stay where he was, and after the back road was blocked, his only choice was to retreat!

If he had retreated at the beginning, there would have been no problem, but now, his soldiers had lost their combat effectiveness in the bitter cold, and retreating at this time was already an impossible task!

"Boom, boom, boom!" Just after he gave the order, a huge explosion was heard in the distance.

"Division commander, division commander, our middle road troops have been covered by artillery fire, and they have suffered heavy casualties!" The report of the subordinates came up soon.

The general offensive of Finland has begun!

More than ten kilometers away, the artillery of the Finnish 9th Division opened fire on the serpentine positions of the Soviet Union, and the firing lasted for half an hour, making them feel like the end of the world.

"Oh, quick, dodge!" A Soviet soldier half-crouched in the snow pit, trying to avoid the artillery attack, but, then, he was surprised to see that on the opposite mountain, a large area of snow had slipped down in its entirety!

The vibration of the artillery fire caused a terrible avalanche here! They were in this position, just at the foot of the mountain, on the slopes, and the thousands of cubic meters of snow slid down like this, like a mudslide.

They want to hide, but there is nowhere to hide!

Thirty seconds later, the snow fell here, covering everything around it, and it was more than ten meters high!

Soviet troops, also divided into two parts!

The news was devastating, and the Soviet soldiers watched in despair as the Finnish troops came out of the snow-covered woods on both sides, and their tactics were not much different from before.

Through constant intersperses and surprise attacks, they further divided and compressed Soviet positions. When broken into small pieces, the Soviet soldiers quickly lost confidence in resisting.

This tactic is called the "pyre tactic". The word "pyre" refers to the Finnish word for firewood that is piled together to be chopped, and according to Finnish tradition, they cut down trees and pile them into piles, which they will process later.

Here, it means that when the Finns lack enough firepower to destroy the Soviet "pyre" with a large number of soldiers and weapons, they will pile them up and wait, either by their own hands or by using the cold and hunger to destroy the enemy.

For the 44th Division, it was already the last moment.
