"This is the forest south of Homnich, and your mom and dad are in another world! You're Natasha, a sniper of the 284th Guards Division, get it? Balzen said with tears and laughter. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I see. I'm not dead yet! I'm so lucky. ”

Sometimes, it is difficult for a soldier to withstand the great psychological trauma. For example, an excess of fear, combined with the roar of artillery fire, can scare some soldiers into silly. Some people wake up after being in a coma and have memory impairment.

These bad things didn't happen to Natasha, but she sat up slowly, and suddenly put her hands on her chest, opened her mouth, and screamed in pain.

This scares everyone! The veteran, who had just checked the girl's pulse, knew some battlefield medicine.

The girl was not traumatized, and her body was unrecognizable. Could it be an internal injury? The old soldier spoke a little more, and said suspiciously: "I'm afraid, this kid's ribs are broken." ”

"What?! How is this possible?! Balzen was taken aback, and quickly squatted down and stroked the girl.

Seeing this, the veteran immediately said, "Sir, you can't do this. Patients with broken ribs must not move their bodies, otherwise the broken bones will hurt the internal organs. ”

At this time, Balzen was dumbfounded, this lively and cute girl, a member of the Communist Youth League who was eager to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions to the motherland, actually suffered severe internal injuries?

Just when she was at a loss, Natasha coughed violently a few times, then took a deep breath.

Natasha felt much more comfortable now, she still had some pain when she spoke, and she still said softly: "Don't worry about me, I just held my breath in my lungs, and I was shocked just now." That's the only internal injury I have! ”

His body was still clear to himself, and the veteran saw the girl's good performance and immediately retracted his guess just now. He said to Balzen: "She's lucky. If it was really a broken rib, it would not have been possible to talk to us like that, and the deep breath she had just taken proved that she should be pulling her lungs. ”

Balzen nodded and asked, "Natasha, can you sit up on your own?" ”

"I ...... I'll try. ”

The girl struggled to get up, her haggard face worrying.

The girl's strategic value to the troops was very important, and Balzen was certainly not the kind of person who looked at the ordinary creeps separately from the technical ones. The lives of all the soldiers were precious, but this girl was loved by the commander and a little hero in the hearts of nearly 20,000 inhabitants of the three collective farms in the swamp. If she has three strengths and two weaknesses, the loss is not just as simple as losing an elite combat power.

Balzen immediately ordered several fighters: "Your task is to take care of Natasha. We are about to return, and we must ensure her safety before we go back. ”

The girl is stubborn, but her body is indeed traumatized. Natasha didn't have many words, and for her the fight was terrible. Not a single Nazi was wiped out, the rifle did not fire a single shot, and he himself was almost blown up by the enemy's aerial bombs!

Balzen immediately found a large tree to rest with his back to the girl's business. The soldiers had already gone down to count the casualties, and he only wanted them to be small.

"Hell, I haven't been hit by an enemy air strike for months. This was the first time I had led a thousand-strong troop operation, and I was able to catch up. And also encountered a large number of enemy aircraft! ”

Seeing the commander complaining to himself, the soldiers around him did not interject. Early in the morning, after the most frantic attack of the enemy, many soldiers were accustomed to life on the battlefield. Now that you're at least alive, then hurry up and eat, put the thrilling things aside for a while, and continue to eat.

Seeing that many people still had no heart to eat canned food, Balzen smiled bitterly. "It's time for breakfast, you haven't forgotten how to eat, and it's still a qualified performance."

A small negligence in war can be fatal, and many recruits who have just joined the battle will have a psychological breakdown due to panic. For such people, the commissars of the USSR often shot them on the grounds of cowardice.

There were no such people in Balzen's ranks, but he didn't have to wait long for the casualties to be counted.

Several soldiers half-knelt in front of him, reporting their statistics.

More than a hundred horses died, some by gunfire, some by bombs of enemy aircraft. One soldier said: "I have shot the wounded horse, and the legs of the horses have been mutilated, and this can be used as military rations." ”

There was no way around it, and Balzen endured it. As for the casualties of personnel, the bombardment of the enemy, more than fifty more people died, and this was mainly on the battalions and militia of Anatoly. The reconnaissance and artillery batteries also paid some casualties, but fortunately the problem was not serious.

Having learned the hard way, Balzen stood up and ordered: "They are dead in battle, and we cannot put the corpses in the wilderness." Our plan was to bury them all in this grove. Now it's time for me to take home all the bodies of the fallen soldiers that we have collected. Buried in the soldiers' cemetery in Catfish Village. ”

After the air raid, the most important thing is to stabilize the morale of the army.

As a soldier, of course, be aware of the need to die at any time. No one knows what their future holds, and if the soldiers knew their fate, they would certainly want to keep their bodies and bury them in the cemetery.

Balzen's order was recognized by the living, everyone's faces were numb, and the corpses had gradually stiffened. The people who fought together before are now withered and loaded into the sleigh that entered the village like cargo.

Many horses died, and after that, they had to be pulled by manpower. In this way, the troops will return with up to nearly 200 corpses. Others, such as Alexander's militia, nearly 300 of whom died without a place to be found, were destroyed along with Homnitsch.

Before returning home, Balzen had to report the results of the battle to the division headquarters, because he knew that the division commander and deputy division commander must have not slept all night and waited anxiously.

Yes, Yang Mingzhi was very tired, his eyes were already attached to the dark circles, but they were still open.

The star fruit couldn't stand it anymore, so she curled up in a bunch on the bed where her husband was sitting cross-legged, wrapped in a blanket and fell asleep.

The sun had already risen, and the guards brought breakfast, that is, bread and hot milk, to the division headquarters. I saw that the important three people were still waiting anxiously with their eyes open.

"Sir! It's half past seven in the morning, so you might as well have something to eat. ”

Yevlov waved his hand: "You put the food on the table and continue to do your own thing." ”

He immediately started his hunger trend, and casually threw a piece to Yang Mingzhi and Yelenkina. "Let's eat quickly, we can continue to be awake after eating."

Yang Mingzhi nodded, yawned, and muttered to himself while chewing his bread. "I don't know what's going on with Homnich. Were they hit by airstrikes, and were they unharmed? ”

Three, you look at me, I look at you, now you can only continue to wait.

Just like that, everyone continued to wait, and Yerenkina couldn't bear to lie down and fall asleep. When Yang Mingzhi was also drowsy, in the radio room where he had been replaced, the radioman ran out nervously, took the translated paper full of code, and rushed into the office of the division headquarters.

"Report to the Divisional Commander! Balzen called! ”

He spoke loudly, and Yevlov and Yang Mingzhi instantly came to their senses. Yevlov snatched the report, quickly read it, and yelled: "Hell! These damn Germans! ”

"What's going on? Is it really an air raid? Yang Mingzhi asked anxiously.

Yevlov handed the paper over, his face full of anger. "See for yourself, these actions, we have simply failed."

Balzen's report was relatively simple, and he mainly provided important figures in several areas. For example, the casualties of the troops, the loss of horses, and the situation in Homnich. These figures best reflect the outcome of the battle, the enemy did have air strikes, so the losses of the troops were significant.

To make matters worse, Homnich has been completely blown up, and how much of the rebar that could have been used there is left now? Holmnich has been hit by two serious air strikes, and the small city is probably powdered!

Yang Mingzhi immediately realized that this matter was very unfavorable to the long-term development of the army, and the manufacture of weapons required a large amount of metal after all!

He continued to look and saw such a text - Natasha was injured.

This is really five thunderbolts, and Yang Mingzhi's head and hair are all standing up like electricity. Natasha is injured! It was he who allowed her to participate in the war, and it turned out to be a harm to her! Subconsciously, Yang Mingzhi looked at his wife beside him. "Little Peach, Little Peach, if you wake up and learn that your sister Natasha is injured, you will definitely resent me." This can be, Yang Mingzhi blamed himself.

The girl's unit was hit by an air strike and she herself was injured in the process? Was she seriously injured? Balzen did not say it explicitly.

Seeing Yang Mingzhi's expression change drastically, Yevlov asked, "What's the matter?" I'm guessing you're nervous about Natasha. ”

"That's right! She's hurt! ”

"Who's hurt." Yerentina slowly got up, and now she learned that information from the front had returned.

She hurriedly read the battle report, and she showed greater calmness than the man.

"Hundreds of casualties, this is really a bad regional operation. To make matters worse, Natasha was also injured. It's terrible. ”

"That's right, I gave her permission to fight. I knew this was the case, so I left her behind. Yang Mingzhi said regretfully.

Yerentina shook her head: "Berekov, you must know that Natasha is a warrior. Fighting a war is a very risky thing, and if she didn't have the awareness to die in battle, Natasha wouldn't have joined the army. Besides, even if she dies, she is still a hero. Besides, this is the path she chose for herself, so why should you feel guilty? Besides, she was just injured. ”

"But ......"

"Berekov, you don't have to think nonsense. If you look at the vocabulary Balzen uses, it's a minor injury, not a major injury. ”

was reminded by her like this, Yang Mingzhi immediately thought that there was an adjective in front of the word "injured". That said, Natasha's injuries were not serious.

"Well, I'm scared of myself." Yang Mingzhi breathed a long sigh of relief.

Now that the three of them were sober, they immediately gave the order, that is, to order Balzen to immediately evacuate the land of right and wrong in Homnich and bring back everything that could still be used. (To be continued.) )
