Chapter Seventy-Eight: Ambush

If I had been given a chance, I would definitely take my men and go around that river.

——From "Yu Zhiqian's Interview Issue 36"

The Kam River, a small river that cannot be named on the world map, or even difficult to find in location, but is a relatively important river in bold on the map of Finland, is one of the more important rivers in central Finland, although the water flow is not large, but along this river, there are many Finnish gathering points and small towns.

"Sir, we're here!"

Pobosky panted and came to Yu Zhiqian, and pointed to a place not far away that looked like a plain, where there were no trees, as if there was a sharp blade, and a sword split the forest in half, all Yu Zhiqian and the others had to do was to cross this sword and go to the opposite bank.

"Watch your surroundings and be careful of ambushes!"

Yu Zhiqian chose a good observation position, and cautiously looked around with a telescope, the surroundings were white, and he couldn't tell where there was an enemy and where the snow was.

On the white snowfield, there was a murderous motive hidden, and after Yu Zhiqian repeatedly confirmed that he had not found any suspicious locations, he slowly spoke.

"Cross the river!"

According to the previous plan, I took a short break before crossing the river to have lunch and recuperate, but considering that I would have to make a fire, I might not be able to cross the river in case the Finns surrounded me, so I finally decided to cross the river first and then rest.

The Cam River is not wide, less than 20 meters wide at its widest point, and there is already a thick layer of ice on the surface of the river, on which one can walk without obstacles, and if you can skate, you may be able to slip across it in a few seconds.

"The Soviets are already preparing to cross the river!"

On the other side of the river, more than a dozen Finns are lying in the snow, showing only a pair of eyes, and even if you look closely, you will not be able to recognize that there is a person hiding here, who has been crawling in the snow all year round, these Finns have long learned to disguise.

"Wait, wait until most of them are on the river, and then do it!"

"Yes!"

The Finns were very patient, and the faith in the hearts of the Finns was stronger than that of the invaders, the Soviets, which is why the Finns were able to play a war loss ratio that shocked the world.

Belief is really mysterious, some people say that he can't resist bullets and artillery, and it is true that flesh and blood can't resist, but it has proved on many battlefields that as long as there is firm faith and conviction, nothing is invincible.

"Thirty of the Soviets began to cross the river!" The Finnish scouts reported again.

"Wait!"

However, they did not wait for Lao Maozi to walk on the ice in the follow-up, Yu Zhiqian had already given the order, divided into three groups to cross the river, thirty people at a time, and Yu Zhiqian pressed the formation at the end to prevent accidents.

"Only thirty of the Soviets walked to the middle of the ice, and some of them were standing by, damn it, these Soviets are really cunning!"

The observers kept reporting the information, and the Finns began to be a little anxious, not expecting that the Soviets did not rush over.

"Let this group come first!"

"Yes!"

"Report, the second group is thirty more people, and they are almost in the middle of the river!"

"Hit!"

This time, the Finnish commander gave the order to attack, although it was not possible to completely annihilate the Soviets on the river, but it was enough to divide them head and tail, and wait until they would continue to slowly eat away.

With an order, on the artillery position about a kilometer behind him, five mortars had already been deployed in place, and the five shells landed accurately on the ice.

"Enemy attack!"

was suddenly attacked, Lao Maozi's first reaction was to lie on the ground, Yu Zhiqian saw it and immediately yelled: "Don't lie on the ice, rush over, rush over!" ”

As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen Finns climbed up in the snow on the opposite side of the riverbank, holding submachine guns in their hands, strafing the Soviets who had already crossed the river.

In a short instant, a dozen or even more Soviets fell, and some Finnish snipers hid in hidden corners, constantly harvesting the lives of Soviets.

"Pay attention to concealment, find cover, counterattack, counterattack!"

Yu Zhiqian reminded loudly, while pointing the muzzle of the gun at the machine gun position in the distance, the Finnish machine gunner, who was growing his mouth, roared loudly, his fingers pulled the trigger tightly, and the bullets swept across the ice like a torrential rain, and the Soviets were constantly interrupted by the waist.

There was no cover on the river, and this group was the best target for the Finns, and in less than a minute after the attack began, there were no Soviets left to stand up, most of them were killed, and some of them lay on the ground, not daring to move.

"Bang!"

Yu Zhiqian killed the machine gunner, but the ammunition supplier next to him directly dragged the machine gunner's body away, and controlled the machine gun again.

"Shelling!"

It was the sound of a mortar, and the sharp sound proved that the shells were falling around him, and Yu Zhiqian didn't dare to be careless, and immediately rolled behind a tree, curling up his body as much as possible.

"Boom!"

A shell fell, falling on Yu Zhiqian about ten meters away, a few old hairs did not have time to disperse, they were directly killed, and the severed limbs flew to the position in front of Yu Zhiqian, mixed with a smell of burnt meat and blood, which made Yu Zhiqian feel a little uncomfortable in his stomach.

But the shelling was not over yet, and there was another sound of breaking the air overhead, which lasted for two or three minutes before it ended.

Yu Zhiqian crawled out of the snow in embarrassment, and looked around in confusion, the surrounding environment had changed, the originally white snow field had been stained red with blood, and there were corpses everywhere, as well as the remains of severed limbs.

The wails of pain, the unwilling screams of the old Maozi, the crazy laughter of the Finns, and so on, mixed into a hellish scene, which kept echoing in Yu Zhiqian's ears.

"Boom!"

Another cannonball landed not far away, Yu Zhiqian fell to the ground, his head buried in the snow, the cold and biting snow and the scarlet smell of blood and gunsmoke, made Yu Zhiqian come back to his senses in an instant, he is now on the battlefield.

"Retreat, retreat!"

Yu Zhiqian used his best strength, constantly roaring, how many old hairs are still alive Yu Zhiqian doesn't know, but one by one can be withdrawn, and at the same time, Yu Zhiqian is still looking for opportunities to shoot.

The highest priority is still the group of Finnish machine gunners, if these people are not killed, Yu Zhiqian may be hit by stray bullets even if he retreats.

After knocking out a Finnish machine gunner at one time, Yu Zhiqian saw that the last of his men on the other side of the river had been killed, and the position in the middle of the river had been blown up into a big hole, and the old Maozi who had just crossed the river was either killed or fell into the icy river water to sleep for a long time.
