The life of a soldier can only be lived like this, and in the higher doctrines, experts and professors call this the social division of labor.

Rich people eat and drink spicy food, and those who don't have money have to work hard. It may sound unfair, but it really follows the original fairness.

Sometimes, it is often the rich who bear the more important social burden, and the poorer the more justified this social phenomenon is actually pathological and extremely dangerous.

When Karyus ate the last bite of bread with the little soup left over from the luncheon meat, most of the officers and men of the 505th Armored Battalion had already risen.

They were ordered to wait here for the four tanks that had been left behind, but none of them had yet arrived.

When the time comes, you have to go when it's time to go, otherwise it will cause even more chaos.

If their battalion does not leave, then the people behind will have to leave even later, and in the end, the dispatch of the entire army will be dragged down, and there will be no way to talk about efficiency.

It's like a giant watch that works precisely, and every gear, every link, and every rotation actually has to be precisely coordinated.

If there is a mistake in the coordination, then the clock will be out of order, and it will have to be readjusted.

"It's so early! Am I snoring? Are you not sleeping well? Commander Tyre walked over at this time, still holding his lunch box that was the same as that of the infantryman.

He was much happier, and the people next door made a bonfire after they got up, and many people warmed up the food and ate more comfortably.

There was no fire at the time of his meal, and when he saw the campfire, he was almost finished with his breakfast...... Maybe it's lunch.

Hearing the question of his artillery commander, Karyus jumped out of the tank with the empty can, shook his head and said: "No! You slept peacefully, as quietly as I did. ”

In fact, both of them slept very noisily last night, and the snoring of the two of them came and went, as if it was a game, and it was irritating to listen to.

After 40 hours of continuous fighting, they were so tired that they didn't care about each other's snoring at all, and they all fell asleep the moment they lay down.

Seeing Karjus walking towards one of the trucks parked in the direction of the battalion headquarters, Tyre hurriedly handed the empty canned box in his hand to his commander: "Help me bring it, thank you!" ”

The truck, which was originally used to transport ammunition, is now more than half empty, but it has a new purpose, which is to use it as a garbage truck.

After each battle, the Germans had to recover a lot of things. For example, empty boxes of cans, and cartridge casings of bullets, etc.

The shells of the armored units all fell directly into the body of the vehicle, and they were easily cleaned out. Including shells for shells, but also shells for bullets.

It's more troublesome to eat, and the tin box of canned food looks disgusting, but you have to try your best to recycle it.

Germany is a resource-poor country, and every detail must be carefully calculated, and recycling strategic resources is an important part of it.

Shells and bullet casings must be recycled, remade into weapons, or transformed into other items, in short, there is no room for waste.

The same is true of canned boxes, which are collected and shipped to Poland in the rear, where they are cleaned by the hard laborers in the camps, and then reprocessed into various products for sale.

The purpose of such careful planning is to conserve the country's resources as much as possible. Compared with the United States and the Soviet Union, Germany's foundation is still too thin to withstand any waste.

Pinching his nose, he threw the two cans in his hand into the back of the truck, and then chatted for a while with the officers of the two battalion headquarters who were smoking cigarettes next to the truck before Caljuus walked back.

When he walked back, Tyr was packing his lunch box. On the road behind Tyre, the organ troops had already passed, now replaced by trucks full of soldiers.

It seems that there is always an army marching there, and there is no end to it. These roads were like blood vessels, transporting German troops in all directions.

"Do you know where we are?" Caljuus leaned against the side skirt of the tank and asked Tyre in front of him.

Not far from where he was leaning, there was a hole in the skirt that had been pierced by a cannonball. Next to the hole, there are burning marks formed by dense jets.

On the side skirt of the tank, there are many potholes, which are the marks left by bullets on the steel plates, which look shocking.

"Didn't we already be in Stolbuzzi yesterday? It's not far from Minsk either. Tyre packed up his lunch box, tossed it into a suitcase on the side of the car, and spoke.

That place was originally used to put tools, but unfortunately, due to cost control problems, many tanks were not equipped with these items when they were rationed to the front line.

About half of the tanks of a company did not have axes, hammers, shovels and other tools, but the other half were equipped with these things.

Originally, Calyus had a bad life, and was assigned a Leopard tank with incomplete spare parts. But then they realized that it would be good to put some bits and pieces here, so they were relieved.

Although they did not have the tools of shovels and hammers, they had an extra suitcase to put a lot of rags, so to speak, and they were happy to take what they needed.

"The troops of the front are already attacking Dzerzhinsk! If nothing else, we could have dinner there. As he chatted, Karyus tapped on the steel plate of his tank.

"The battalion headquarters will have to distribute the remaining ammunition in a while, and several trucks will have to send the rags back to the supply depot, and then they will come back with a full load of ammunition." Looking at the munitions truck unloading shells in the distance, Karjus made another update.

Tyr shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and said teasingly: "Ha, our truck, escorted by 4 soldiers with only 3 magazines, is full of shells for 30 tanks, and crosses at least 5,000 Soviet soldiers to come back......"

In the current situation, in fact, the area behind the German army is not a clear security zone. On both sides of the road, there were often Soviet routs without being closed, sometimes in the hundreds.

None of the Soviet soldiers were disarmed, and they were not strictly prisoners. However, few Soviet soldiers continued to resist, and they would obey and lay down their arms and wait for the German troops who were watching them.

However, there were also a few cases where the Soviets attacked German convoys, causing losses and triggering widespread encirclement and retaliation.

The German mechanized units cleaned up the so-called partisans around them, especially in the vicinity of the areas where the attacks had taken place.

"That's it! There is nothing to complain about, and if they don't go back, we won't have shells to continue the offensive. Karjus leaned out of the tank, stood up straight, and shouted to William, the loader who was gobbling up, "William! You and Joseph sort out the shells and make up for the missing amount! ”

This is the daily routine of every armored soldier, replenishing the tank's ammunition, cleaning the inside of the tank, refueling the machinery, adjusting those cold gearboxes and engines.

In the time outside of the battle, they are maintenance workers, handling and stevedores, and they are also excellent cross talk actors.

Everyone will tease each other, cooperate to complete the mission, and protect their tanks, so that the tanks can save their own lives when it is critical.

Don't underestimate the tank crew, the German army's elite tank crews are often qualified mechanics and experienced weapons tuning experts.

In real history, in the later stage of World War II, after the loss of these elite technicians of the German army, the combat effectiveness of the German armored forces could not be fundamentally restored to the peak level of 1941.

This is also one of the main reasons why the weapons and equipment of the German armored forces frequently broke down and were abandoned on the side of the road in the later stages of World War II.

The complexity and unreliability of weapon systems is one reason, and the fact that tank crew members do not repair and ignore maintenance and have no experience in emergency repairs is also the reason for the high rate of weapon scrapping.

Most of those who are skilled workers and tank killers have already died in Kursk and in Ukraine......

And now, with Li Le's help, they have a more reliable and sturdy Leopard tank, which can provide them with safer combat guarantees, and their chances of survival have increased exponentially.

For example, Wittmann survived from the reconnaissance vehicle and the No. 3 assault gun to the middle of the war, and survived until the Tiger tank was installed.

Now, instead of the penetrating No. 3 assault gun, Wittman has a new Panther tank that is as powerful as the Tiger - and his chances of survival are certainly greater.

William heard his commander's order, quickly stuffed the rest of the food into his mouth, then stood up and walked towards the place where the ammunition was unloaded.

Joseph, the mechanical, could only stand up and keep up, and he would have to check the radios on the tanks in a while to make sure that they were working reliably in battle and would not affect the commander's communication and command.

Every link must be carefully checked, and after a while, the place they are going to is full of enemy battlefields, not those beautiful tourist resorts.
