Chapter 538 538 Night Battle~
Wolf was trimming his toenails when he heard the sound of machine gun fire outside the house unannounced.
Wolf dropped the nail clippers he had borrowed from the landlord and hurriedly put his feet in his boots, not even bothering to put on his socks. While he was struggling with his shoes, Hans rushed in from the outside with his clothes in his arms, half of his body still covered in soap foam.
Wolf burst out laughing.
"Stop laughing! What if it's really the Russians who come to attack at night? ”
At this time, Wolf had already put on his shoes, he picked up his newly maintained machine gun, quickly loaded the cartridge belt, closed the bolt cover, looked at Hans Zimmer, who was still putting clothes on his body, and said proudly: "Don't worry, I will cover you, Your Excellency the new sergeant major." ”
At this time, James came from the landlord's main house with his pants up.
"What's going on?"
"Probably Russians." Wolf shrugged, "Maybe we'll stop the gunfire when we're ready." ”
As soon as Wolf finished speaking, several muffled grenade explosions rang out outside, and then the machine-gun fire stopped.
"Listen, stop!" After saying that, Wolf laughed dryly, then picked up his gun, turned around and kicked the door open, and ran into the yard. Hans Zimmer, who had been dressed at an alarming speed, also picked up the gun and ran out, and James had just picked up the gun and was about to leave, when the Polish girl, who was still in disarray, rushed in, took his hand, and muttered something in Polish.
"Calm down, we'll defeat the Russians, don't worry, girl." With that, James smiled at the Polish girl, then turned and ran out of the house.
As soon as he got out of the house, the Polish girl followed, staring at James with beautiful blue eyes, and continued to say something in Polish.
"Don't worry!" James said this, waving at her, before running to the armored tow vehicle that had already driven to the door.
Hans was crouching on the engine cover of the repair car, and shouted to the armored repair car on the other side of the village by radio: "Bloody Mary answers, Bloody Mary answers, how many Russian troops are there?" ”
Bloody Mary is the radio call sign that Hans only changed tonight: although Lin Youde believes that the Russian army will not have the ability to listen to the German radio communication and judge the battlefield situation so quickly, he still formulated a tactical code for the troops, stipulating that the radio tactical call sign should be updated at least once a day to prevent it from being used by the Russians.
Hans shouted for a long time before an echo came over the radio: "Gin (the call sign of the command car), here is Bloody Mary, the Russian army is everywhere!" We have retreated from the entrance of the village and are retreating along the stone road in the middle of the village. With our machine guns there is simply no way to stop their straggler charge. The machine gun crew guarding the mill was already hanging. Complete. ”
"." Hans cursed, and then shouted to a small group of combat sappers who were forming a group on the side of the road, "Find someone to go to the church, tell the battalion commander that the east side of the village has been lost, and the Russians have entered the village." ”
As soon as the words fell, a non-commissioned officer trotted towards the church.
But at this time, gunshots also rang out on the west side of the village, and then gunshots rang out in all directions.
"I saw Bloody Mary!" Wolf, who had been guarding the road in the village, shouted, "It's reversing, the machine gun is ringing!" ”
Hans also saw Bloody Mary reversing the car at about the same moment, and he also saw a man wearing a black fur hat appear on the roof next to the car, which the German soldiers all wore with steel helmets.
"Bloody Mary! There's someone on the roof next to you! ”
At the same time as Hans called, Wolf's machine gun fired, but in a hurry it could not hit the Russians immediately, so the Russians threw out the Molotov cocktail in their hands.
The bottle smashed into the engine cover of the armored repair vehicle, and as soon as the alcohol inside was spilled, it was immediately ignited by the burning cloth at the mouth of the bottle, creating a large burning area on the engine cover.
The reversing action of the armored car immediately stopped, and the commander quickly got out of the hatch, and was about to jump to the side when he was shot by a gun, his body spun around, twisted and fell off the body.
The rest of the pit crew followed suit, and the Russian's Maximine shot a rain of bullets clanging on the burning body, knocking down all those who had escaped.
A small fleeting fireball rose from the door of the maintenance car, and the whole car burst into flames like a torch.
Although Lin Youde's armored vehicles generally use diesel, they are still on the engine cooling cover when they are thrown directly by Molotov.
"The Russians have already entered the village." Hans turned back to the combat sappers and ordered, "Let's get out of the village!" Fighting in the streets with the Russians in the dark......"
A bullet hit the armor plate not far from Hans, bounced and hit him in the shoulder, flew past his bones, and took away a piece of flesh.
"Holy!" Hans hurriedly leaned back on the winch and continued to order loudly, "Watch out for the roof!" There are Russian troops on the roof! Damn, what are the guards around the village! The car started and we followed the road to the outside of the village! Everyone retreated separately and converged at the forest line west of the village! ”
At this time, the armored tow vehicle they were riding in began to turn, and the sound of the engines of the five armored vehicles turning in place shook the night sky, almost equal to the sound of two machine guns.
"Onward! Break through the encirclement of the Russian army! After Hans finished speaking, he put down the radio microphone and shouted to the German soldiers who were still shooting nearby, "Retreat with the armored convoy!" The village has been surrounded and infiltrated! ”
After completing the turn, the armored convoy drove towards the outside of the village, and at the same time, the machine gun fire in the church also stopped abruptly after several explosions, and now all the MG firing was gone, except for the team's hull machine gun and the general-purpose machine gun in Wolf's hand, but Maxine's heavy thud was still ringing one after another.
The convoy roared out of the village, just as Wolf saw something moving rapidly in the darkness.
"Cavalry!" He shouted loudly as he fired at the Russians.
The first horse was knocked down, the second fell within a few seconds, and then the third.
The third horse rolled on the ground when it fell, and then the horse got up safely, but the man on the horse was nowhere to be seen.
The rest of the cavalry were undaunted, and they rushed at the infantry following the armored car, waving their sabers.
"Stop!" Hans shouted, then turned back to the infantry and said, "Hide next to the armored car!" ”
The infantry immediately did so, and all of them crouched down next to the tracks and load wheels of the armored vehicles and began to fire at the Russian cavalry.
The Russians probably suddenly realized that the infantry were not very good at chopping distances with the help of armored vehicles, so they turned and retreated towards the village.
"Alright, let's go!" Hans said and patted the armor plate of the armored car.
"They're killing soldiers from other villages." Wolf looked at the field at night and gritted his teeth.
"If we had a foot fight, we could go and save the guys, now what do you expect us to do?"
Wolf gritted his teeth and fired his machine gun at the field at night.
"Stop, maybe you'll hit your own people."
Wolf smacked his lips, and then he noticed something.
"Where's James?" He asked Hans.
The latter looked dazed.
