Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Teacher

Despite the German resistance, the Soviets poured into the German lines, and then the enemy and the enemy were entangled together.

If the previous battle was just a struggle, then hand-to-hand combat is a test of humanity.

Shulka's heart refused, because the opponent in front of him was a complete stranger, and there was no hatred between them, but at this moment they had to separate life and death.

However, Shulka knew that he had to do this, because this was the battlefield, and mercy and hesitation would only make him a ghost under the gun of his opponent, who had already changed the magazine for his submachine gun......

Shulka screamed and plunged the bayonet into the German soldier's chest, and he could even feel the grinding of the bayonet against his ribs and the trembling of the pain from the barrel of the gun, like a sharp object scratching on the iron sheet, which made Shulka almost lose his rifle.

But Shulka didn't do it, because he knew exactly what the result would be, so he could only force himself to do what he had to do over and over again.

Shulka tried to pull his rifle back, but was held by the German soldiers.

Shulka believed that the German soldier did not do it out of bravery, but because of the pain, he tried his best to grasp something he could, which Shulka could see in the distorted faces of the German soldiers and the desperate, begging eyes.

Shulka gritted his teeth and gave the German soldier a kick and drew his bayonet.

Shulka seems to hear two voices:

One is moaning, crying, and accusing.

The other is sanity, cold-bloodedness, and killing......

Apparently the second voice prevailed, or rather the desire to survive, and Shulka continued to lunge forward with a bloody bayonet and stabbed it hard into the back of a German soldier.

The German soldier was pressed against a Soviet soldier who was holding each other's necks and scuffling each other, so that they could not spare any energy or time to deal with Shulka. This made it easy for Shulka to deliver the fatal blow.

It was a sneak attack, and he didn't have any ability to resist......

Fuck the sneak attack, that's war! A war without any rules!

Sympathy for the enemy is cruelty to oneself!

I had to do it, I had to do it!

……

Shulka made many excuses for himself, but his heart was still full of uneasiness, as if he owed someone something.

A German soldier rushed towards Shulka with a bayonet, and Shulka raised his gun as fast as he could and pulled the trigger......

There was a "bang" of gunshots, and the bullet passed through the head of the German soldier, and he tilted his head back and collapsed to the ground like an inflated balloon.

Until then, Shulka had always agreed that melee shots were easy to accidentally injure, and now he knew it was all nonsense...... As a soldier in a melee, he doesn't think about accidental injuries at all, he will only do everything to kill the enemy, no matter what method is used, and of course he doesn't care about accidental injuries.

Finally, the Germans began to retreat.

They could only retreat to the bridge, they may have thought that the situation on the other side would be better than on this side, hoping to retreat to the other side to continue the resistance, but the reality is very cruel...... At the same time, something similar is happening on the other side.

As a result, the German soldiers crowded on the not spacious bridge deck, and as soon as the machine guns rang out, the German soldiers fell in pieces like harvested rice. Soon, the bridge was covered with the corpses of German soldiers, and blood flowed like streams from the gutters to the river and downstream.

Gradually, the sound of gunfire and shouts of killing died down.

At this time, the fighters became cautious, because they knew that the opposite side was likely to be their own people, and in such a situation, it was easy to misunderstand and suffer friendly casualties.

Major Gavrilov rushed forward from the rear, holding a small horn in his hand, and shouted at the opposite side under the cover of the bridge railing: "I am Major Gavrilov, the commander of the 44th regiment, which part of you are from?" ”

"I'm Fuming, the political commissar of the 84th Regiment!" An excited voice came from the other side: "Comrades, how are you?" ”

With a cheer, the soldiers poured onto the Bright Bridge and hugged each other tightly. Even Shulka had the urge to hug and cry with his comrades.

Only those who have experienced this kind of hardship and finally reunited with their comrades-in-arms can truly understand this feeling.

But of course, that doesn't mean the difficulties are over.

"Comrade Commissar!" Major Gavrilov reported to Commissar Fomin: "The plans have changed, the Germans already know that we will break through to the north and lay an ambush there. So, we changed our plans, and we thought that we should cross the river from the central fortress to break through! ”

This not only surprised the commissar Fomin, but even the troops led by Major Gavrilov, including Okunev...... They thought it was just a rescue operation, but they didn't expect it to be a breakthrough.

Political Commissar Fuming was quite decisive, and after he was stunned for a moment, he asked: "Breakthrough position?" ”

Major Gavrilov took out the map, pointed to a point in the dim light of the flashlight, and said: "Here, behind the church, we know from Peter that the Germans do not have many troops in this area!" ”

"Yes!" After looking at the map, Fuming agreed: "The Germans don't think we have the ability to cross the river and fight, their main defensive position is a few bridges, so they only have a platoon of troops in this area!" ”

Although the Germans had sufficient troops, there were many places to defend the Brest fortress, and there were still enough troops to attack, so only a small number of troops were arranged on the river bank to defend it...... These troops are more vigilant, and once they find signs of the enemy crossing the river, they immediately report to their superiors and hold out for a while to wait for reinforcements, so there is no need to deploy too many troops.

This was not a problem before, because, as Commissar Fuming said, the central fortress did not have the ability to launch a river crossing operation.

But now, after combining the forces of the Kobrin fortress, it's a different matter.

"We lack the means to cross the river!" Commissar Fuming said.

"We're ready!" Major Gavrilov waved to the rear as he spoke, and soon a group of soldiers came out of the darkness carrying the raft.

"Well done, Comrade Major!" Fumin patted Major Gavrilov on the shoulder with satisfaction: "Very good plan, you may not believe it, just now I was worried that the offensive plan would leak and I would not be able to successfully break through." Now, you've given us confidence! ”

"Of course I believe, Comrade Commissar!" Major Gavrilov replied: "You may not believe it, it was not me who came up with this plan, but a soldier!" ”
