Chapter 109: Second Battalion Commander, Where's Your Italian Artillery?
"Alright, the task is assigned, after breakfast, let's go quickly!" After the German officer finished speaking, he got up and left, the task has been assigned, and what should be done next depends on the group of snipers under his command.
The German officer was a battalion commander, and there were far more troops attacking Yu Yang's hiding street than Yu Yang had seen, about three or two battalions of soldiers, but there were also a small number of German soldiers distributed in the factory not far behind him.
"Battalion commander, the latest order from the regimental headquarters requires us to take Street No. 63 before sunset today, open the road from the factory to Street No. 63, and at the same time let us advance to the banks of the Volga River as soon as possible!" A herald took a telegram and sent it to the lieutenant colonel.
After reading the order in his hand, the officer slapped the top of the table hard, these damn orders, take down the entire street before sunset, not to mention that he is not satisfied with a battalion, even if a regiment comes, it may not be able to do it.
These damn Soviets are like rats in a wheat field, always popping up where you don't expect them and giving you two blows, not fatal, but they make you feel a little uncomfortable.
Just two days ago, the battalion under the officer was still a full strength, and it had just been transferred from the rear, and in just two days, it had not fought a hard battle but only encountered sporadic resistance from the Soviets, and the whole battalion had lost one-third of its personnel.
And every soldier died by these insidious Soviets who did not dare to fight the brave German soldiers head-on.
And now he has two tasks, one is to clear the Soviet sniper named Vasily, and all the snipers under his command have been assigned tasks, and now they have to occupy the entire street, without the cover of snipers, the casualties of the troops will be very large, with sniper cover, there can be at least one insurance when advancing.
"Battalion commander?" The communications soldier looked at his commander, standing a little embarrassed, generally after receiving the task, the military director of the unit who accepted the order should have a reply, even if it was a simple receiving, but the officer did not have any orders except for the fire.
"Alright, I got it! You go out first! The officer waved his hand, sat down in his place, took out a pack of cigarettes, smoked it, and began to study the combat map on the table, frowning and pondering.
The headquarters was improvised in the basement of a collapsed building, and the entrance was at the corner of two stone slabs, so hidden that even the Soviets would have overlooked.
While the officer was pondering, in the distance, on the edge of the Volga River, in an improvised artillery position, several Italian guns opened their jackets and began to reload their ammunition.
Three minutes ago, Liao Kasha finally repaired the radio, and thankfully, both radios, both of which had some parts damaged, were borrowed from each other to form a usable radio, but the metal protective case on the outside of the radio had been removed, and the internal wiring was exposed to the air, looking like it was scrapped.
"Sir, the radio has been repaired and is now usable, shall we call the command now?" After Liao Kasha repaired the radio, the whole person calmed down, and no longer thought about rushing out to fight for the Germans.
"You call the command, I'll do the rest!" Yu Yang's muzzle has been facing the position of the entrance, and after hearing that Liao Kasha had repaired the radio, he immediately touched Liao Kasha's side, and he didn't know how he should operate it, but on the prompter on his wrist, the fire support was ready.
"Wait a minute, forest, forest, here is the birch, here is the birch!"
"Forest, forest, here is the birch, here is the birch!"
"......" called three times in a row, but there was no sound on the radio, except for the rustling of electricity, no other sound came, Liao Kasha has been fiddling with the radio, Yu Yang has been waiting, a little anxious: "How is it?" Okay, no? ”
"It's okay right away, I'll adjust it, there should be no problem!" After Liao Kasha finished speaking, he began to debug again, and after a minute or so, there was finally an echo in the radio.
"Forest received! Birch please report your situation there! ”
This voice was like a heavenly sound, and after Yu Yang heard it, he immediately took the headset and pointed to the microphone in his hand: "Are you talking from here?" ”
Liao Kasha shook his head and pointed to something beside Yu Yang that looked like a walkie-talkie: "Sir, this is an earpiece, you can hear the words on the other side when you put it in your ear." ”
The radio station was dismantled a little messy, Yu Yang was a little indistinguishable, the radio earpiece and microphone in this era were completely separated, and Yu Yang was the first time he saw it.
"Alright, give it to me!" Yu Yang took the microphone, but was a little embarrassed to find that he only had one hand, holding the earpiece, and couldn't hold the microphone, holding the microphone, and couldn't hold the earpiece:.
Liao Kasha, come and help me, put the earpiece in my ear, and I'll ask for fire support. ”
After Liao Kasha heard it, he put the microphone down next to Yu Yang, and Yu Yang took the microphone and began to talk to the headquarters: "I am Yu Yang of the 311th Regiment of the 117th Division, what is the coordinate of Liao Kasha's area on the street in front of me?" ”
Liao Kasha took out a map and glanced at it: "Sixty-third Street, 076 area!" ”
"I am Yu Yang of the 117th Regiment of the 311th Division, 63rd Street, 076 area There are at least two companies of Germans who are attacking, request fire support, request fire support! Repeat, 63rd Street, 076 area with at least two companies of Germans on the offensive, request fire support, over! After Yu Yang finished speaking, he looked at the position of his wrist, and there was no change.
"The forest received, wait a minute, I'll apply to the head of the regiment now!" After receiving the information, the communication soldier on the opposite side quickly recorded the location of Yu Yang's report, quickly got up, and ran to the next room.
"Report, regiment commander, there is news from the White Birch side, their side has been attacked by two companies of Germans, and now they are asking for fire support!"
After hearing the report of the herald, the Soviet regiment commander frowned: "Fire support? I also want fire support, tell them to hold on, hold on to 63rd Street! ”
However, after the regiment commander had just finished speaking, he was stunned for a moment, his eyes suddenly became very empty, and there were some strange thoughts in his mind, and he glanced at the communication soldier who was about to leave: "You come back and tell them that fire support will arrive soon!" ”
After saying that, the Soviet regiment commander ran out of his command room and shouted to an officer outside the door who was studying the German offensive line on the map: "Second battalion commander, where is your Italian artillery!" ”
