Nine hundred and twenty-one. The final battle

In the end, with the muffled sound of Moder assault guns, the Russian offensive was finally completely suppressed. By the time the Germans had arrived safely in the museum wing, Zoff had finally arrived without danger. He had almost finished the last round of MG62, his hands were burned from the heat of the shot, and his red and swollen skin even glowed with a slight white smoke.

However, when Hasson screams and points to Zoff's ear, it is only when everyone realizes that the problem is much more serious. Zoff's lips were chapped and his right ear was torn off by a bullet. Blood flowed out of there, gushing out one by one as his heart beat violently.

"We succeeded...... Heisenberg spread out on the floor wearily, gasping for breath, his eyes sweeping over the surrounding soldiers who were as embarrassed as his fort. Heisenberg counted only 6 people who survived......

Ruben and his men arrived and carried them to the second floor of the museum. The Russian offensive seemed to have come to an end, when the charging soldiers were gone, the shouts of killing were gone, and the sounds of fire and explosions had gradually calmed down...... Only a few hundred corpses of Russians covering the battlefield quietly covered the earth. The soldiers took advantage of this rare gap to prepare the ammunition they needed. Heisenberg asked Zov for a couple of grenades and a rifle and handed it to him. A fighter is bandaging his wounds. When Zov saw Heisenberg, he smiled tiredly: "Bring a cigarette to ......"

Heisenberg took out his cigarette case and took out two cigarettes, one in his mouth and one in his own mouth: "Don't be too reckless...... You still need ...... in this battle," Heisenberg said nonchalantly, lighting a fire for him.

Zoff grinned: "Come less - I won't go." You're going to do the same thing - hmph, I'm not going to give you that chance! ”

Heisenberg was a little surprised that Zoff would answer like this, but his calm smile believed it all: "Okay. The next time you're a hero, think of the naked calendar in the hotel - if you're dead, you won't be able to look at the ass of those chicks......" Heisenberg took a drag on his cigarette.

"Colonel...... Your nose ......" the soldier who bandaged Zoff pointed at Heisenberg: "Bleeding." ”

Heisenberg hurriedly brushed it with his hands. Black-red blood flowed from his nostrils. Heisenberg knew what this meant...... Internal.

"It's fine." Heisenberg waved his hand at the soldier lightly, not looking at him with his eyes.

"Heisenberg." Zoff seemed to ponder for a long time: "It's not that I'm willing to fight – it's that I have to." He turned his head to the side, as if suddenly tired of their conversation.

Heisenberg didn't say anything, just looked vaguely at the iron cross around Zoff's neck in the gray smoke wafting in front of him, reflecting the flame of the cigarette spotlessly.

Ruben methodically arranged his soldiers. When passing by Heisenberg's side, he patted Heisenberg: "Where is little Paul?" ”

"Dead. He covered our retreat at the back door. ”

"Good boy!" Reuben nodded angrily, as if fantasizing that he too could die a tragic death—like a true warrior.

"Like a real warrior......" Ruben shook his head in approval: "Zoff - you wait." This battle - I'll get my very own Iron Cross! ”

"Hey!" Zov impatiently threw down his cigarette and grabbed the medal around his neck: "Xiao Lu! When I'm dead, if you're still alive...... Take away my Iron Cross!" ”

Zoff looked at Reuben's surprised expression: "It's okay! I'll send you! ”

Ruben shook his head, made a joke and walked away.

Zoff put on a pair of gloves. So that my burned hands feel better. "Heisenberg. Why is it so quiet? He seemed to sense something, too.

"Hassan!" Heisenberg called the young man's name, and he rushed over: "Sir." ”

"Here's a task for you: now, drive back to Rutherford in my car, and tell him that if his tank doesn't come to reinforce the graveyard defense in 20 minutes, he won't have his share of the brandy I asked for tomorrow! Just go! Heisenberg slapped the young man on the ass. Hassan ran out the back door. On the second floor of the museum, behind each window is an MG62 machine gun, and behind each gunner are two anti-tank rockets. Heavily armed SS soldiers crowded every window of the museum.

"Is it a tank? Sir? A soldier standing guard at the window asked Heisenberg.

The earth did not shake.

"Hey, don't you think there's anything wrong?" Zoff threw away the cigarette butt. Stand up alertly.

A shrill chirp faintly sounded in the air.

Heisenberg suddenly realized something. The strange and silent twist of the cannonball as it streaked through the air came to mind...... "Down-down-quick——! ”

However, it was too late. At the same time as Heisenberg shouted, a heavy shell pierced the roof of the museum like a planing knife, pierced the floor of the second floor, and exploded in the hall on the first floor at the feet of the German troops. At that moment, all the center of gravity was out of balance. The floor beneath his feet was only slightly cocked at first, but in an instant, it turned into a terrifying shattering and crumbling! A soldier was smashed by this terrible shell...... The cannonball ran through his body from under the mountain to the next floor.

This horrific image was imprinted in Heisenberg's mind, numbing Heisenberg's limbs.

"Hurry—hurry!" Zoff shouted backwards, and the floor under their feet shattered instantly, leaving all the soldiers guarding the window on this side without a chance. When the shells fell, many of them had their eardrums mercilessly shattered...... Heisenberg stumbled, and Zoff immediately grabbed one of Heisenberg's hands. However, a huge explosion from under his feet pushed both Heisenberg and Zoff out of the woods......

Fly silently.

At that moment, the world was quiet. Heisenberg felt nothing, except that he fell lightly and hit his head on the floor...... Perhaps Heisenberg could have flown away from hell on earth...... But the Iron Cross around his neck turned into a soldering iron at that moment. A fireball tied Heisenberg so hard that he couldn't go anywhere...... Then the flames raged and devoured their own bodies. The floor beneath Heisenberg shattered. Heisenberg fell again, down...... The earth groaned, the body melted, everything in its path was reduced to nothingness, and the shouts were torn apart in twisting......

......

Russian artillery improved the calculation of ballistics. The entire two-story museum was covered with a sudden burst of dense artillery. The small marble building, which the Germans had thought would be sturdy, collapsed almost instantly. Cunning shrapnel tore it all, hungry flames filled it all, and the most brutal explosion destroyed it all......

No one can escape the museum alive...... The Germans were originally only 74 men...... Damn it...... It makes it seem like nothing is meaningless to what they have just done in church!

Fuck-fuck-fuck!

Now only the earth is shaking...... Shake spasmodically...... Shake......

Wait a minute...... Am I still alive......

The annoying sound of the explosion rings in the ears like a clock.

"Colonel—wake up! Wake up! A voice grew clear in my ears. Heisenberg was being shaken by a man: "Colonel Heisenberg - wake up...... There is no time! ”

"Don't shake me...... Dizzy! Heisenberg irritably pushed away the soldiers beside him: "Damn...... I'm alive...... Where is this? ”

"Colonel!" Husson helped Heisenberg to sit up: "Thank goodness - you're still alive!" ”

"Where am I!?"

"Graveyard defense, sir."

Heisenberg looked around and found himself leaning under a cross in a cemetery. He spread his hands. It was found that both the left and right palms were injured...... It seems that some metal has penetrated it, and the blood has been flowing. "What just happened......

"The enemy shelled the museum. The whole building collapsed...... We ......"

"Brothers—where are the brothers? What about Ruben others? ”

"They all ......"

"Where's Zoff?"

"He's fine, sir. Thanks to Sniper Grandpa saved you ......"

"Major?" Heisenberg couldn't believe that it was an old man who had rescued him and Zoff from hell. "Where is the Major now?"

"He said he would be on the top floor of the hotel."

"Good—good." Heisenberg touched his forehead and tried to stand up, but the ground trembled violently. Heisenberg was forced to fall on his tumble. "What's going on?"

Hassan looked into the distance. Brows tightened: "The Russian tank has attacked ......"

The sky was pitch black, and three huge searchlights shone behind Heisenberg in the direction of the church. The terrifying figures of Russian tanks constantly appeared in the lights, some were burning, some were charging...... Heisenberg knew it at a glance...... I can't hold it anymore......

"Go—you go and get Zoff for me! Right now! Heisenberg pushed the young man away.

"Father - where is the priest? I'm looking for a priest! Heisenberg grabbed Hasen again: "Go to Zoff—don't bother me!" ”

Heisenberg rolled over and crawled with difficulty among the bullets flying around. Suddenly, Heisenberg fell into the trench - and there was a piercing pain all over his body, as if countless knives were stabbing him between the bones and the flesh. The soldiers were fighting with full attention, and no one noticed Heisenberg. But there must be something wrong with Hai's ears. Because he couldn't hear anything, only an explosion echoed in his head like a clock. From time to time several more soldiers fell in front of them. Blocking his crawling...... Their heads were all shattered, and their blood stained Heisenberg's body red.

Heisenberg crawled. The grenadiers fired feverishly, loaded with swiftness, cursed the enemy, and "aimed the shells at the enemy's tanks and threw back the grenades thrown by the enemy...... Heisenberg is still alive...... They must have restrained the offensive of the Russian infantry...... Crossing the entire battle line, in the trenches near the street, Heisenberg found the priest.

He was crooked in the trenches, barely flipping through the Bible with one hand.

"Captain! What are you doing! Heisenberg shouted angrily, even though Heisenberg was already weak.

"Atonement!"

"What's up ahead?"

"The Russian army is supported by tank divisions - Reuben's men are all in the ruins - there is no museum. The graveyard can't be guarded! We're running out of ammo - we're done, sir. Accept the reality. The priest looked Heisenberg in the eye in anguish.

"What are you going to do? Are you going to surrender! Heisenberg shouted frantically and pulled out the pistol at his waist. The surrounding grenadiers pulled out their grenades. The chords of a few MG62s were still endless melodies in the air, Moder assault guns opened fire in the distance, and there was a horrific explosion in Paul's church, and the night was illuminated in an instant...... Above the heads of the Germans, two 10-mm rapid-fire guns did not stop for a moment, and Heisenberg could even imagine those 10-mm shells cutting through rows of enemy bodies......

"We ...... They ......" the priest feebly pointed to the soldiers beside him, "they are all fighting for you...... No one surrendered. ”

"They were soldiers of Germany - they fought for Germany!" Heisenberg roared frantically and fired a shot into the sky.

The priest smiled palely: "We will all fight for you. The soldiers don't want to let you down...... They love you......"

Suddenly. A Russian tank gun shot into the trench behind the Germans. Heisenberg felt himself grabbed by something and thrown to the ground. As Heisenberg cursed and got up, a screaming human face grabbed Heisenberg - he hurriedly pushed him away, looking in horror at his shrapnel-cut body...... He was almost cut open at the waist. And his right hand was gone, along with his shoulder. He grabbed Heisenberg and screamed, his body twitching wildly on the ground, and Heisenberg could see that the spine around his waist became the only connection to his lower body...... Suddenly. His frightened eyes darkened. The body was also instantly quiet. He stopped struggling, just looked at Heisenberg, looked into Heisenberg's eyes with the same fear, and muttered over and over again: "Jesus...... Yes...... Mother...... Mom...... Mother. ”

The Moder assault gun made a dull sound of fire in the distance. Countless Russian tanks formed a huge armored graveyard. However, the battle at this moment took place in the square between the post office and the church. The Moder assault guns were blocked by the buildings, and could only fire senselessly around the church, in a vain attempt to block the approaching infantry.

Heisenberg sniffed in, crawled away from the corpse, and grabbed the priest's clothes again in the smoke.

"Captain! Pull yourself together! We can hold this city! We must hold on! I command you! Heisenberg put his pistol to the priest's head: "Get up - fight with me!" ”

"Captain...... Captain...... I'm dead. There is no point in letting the dead die again. Captain...... I am already a man of God. He showed me his leg wound and the explosives bag he was pressing against his body: "Wait for the line to break down." Wait for the enemy's heavy tanks to pass me......" The priest pointed to the sky above him: "I will detonate the explosive bag and rest here." ”

Heisenberg slowly lowered his pistol. The priest's words made his arm suddenly weak.

"Where's Zoff?" Heisenberg tried to get himself on his feet.

"He's wounded." The priest stared at the colonel solemnly: "When Bolorsky sent you here, Zov was still conscious, he left you in a safe place and went to the post office with MG62 and anti-tank rockets on his shoulder...... The enemy, the enemy's armored forces came from the direction of the eastern square...... Our Moder assault guns simply don't come in handy......" the priest closed his eyes in agony.

Heisenberg used all his strength to stand up in the trenches. Suddenly, a heat wave hit the face, and the wreckage and corpses of the burning Russian tanks were close at hand, filling the sight. The church had collapsed in a sea of fire, and the ground was shaking—a sign of the approaching tanks. A volley of bullets plunged into the dirt in front of him, and the spilled sand blinded his eyes. He stepped back helplessly, the stubborn sound of gunfire and explosions ringing in his ears. He knew that the grenadiers did not retreat a single step, and perhaps when they built a trench in this cemetery, they knew that this would be their burial place.

The wreckage of tanks in the square almost blocked the road, and the corpses of Russians were everywhere. The tanks pressed against the corpses of their own men, so that the corpses were crushed and turned into a blur of flesh and glued to the steel tracks of the tanks...... When they are destroyed, the fresh meat that sticks to them actually smells of barbecue...... Hordes of tanks were destroyed in the square by grenadiers and Moder assault shells, and the Russian tanks had to make a detour. Heisenberg wondered why he hadn't heard the muffled sound of the Moder assault guns firing, and when he looked back, his only weapon against the Russian heavy tanks was buried in the ruins of the collapsed building behind it.

At this moment, a hand grabbed him.

"Sir!" Heisenberg turned his head, it was Hasen, his nose was broken, his mouth was full of blood, and he was panting heavily: "Zoff asked me to tell you, he said to get you out of here as soon as possible - the farther the better!" He also said that you must live to fulfill your promise! ”

"What!" I stood up angrily, and Zoff's words really disappointed me: "Where's that guy?" ”

"In the post office at the end of the trench in front - Zov was ...... with enemy tanks and infantry Yes...... Colonel—let's go—this place is about to fall! ”

"Fuck off!" Heisenberg pushed the young soldier away and walked like a drunkard towards the post office at the end of the trenches. Clutched tightly in his hand was a pistol. (To be continued......)
