Chapter 297: Accident
"That's a good thing!" The instructor, who was lying next to Shulka, looked into the darkness with a pistol and said: "They can't see the disguise clearly at night!" ”
This is, because everything will inevitably have some loopholes, and it is obviously not easy to see in the night.
However, Shulka had a different opinion: "This may not be a good thing, if they only attack with infantry......"
The instructor was stunned for a moment, and then quickly realized that this was very capable, because at this time the Germans were carrying out night attacks with infantry.
Another disadvantage of night raids by infantry is that they are likely to expose their camouflage...... For example, when they are attacked, their first instinct is to dig individual bunkers, and the sapper shovel will touch the ice when they dig more than a meter deep.
Another example is when they burst out with mortars or grenades, and several trees are blown down, and there are no roots.
"Comrade Captain!" Shulka said: "I think we should go on the defensive, otherwise they will see through the disguise!" ”
Venyakov quickly figured out the reasoning, so he immediately ordered: "The first company is stationed in place, the second company, the third company, follow me!" ”
Shulka gave an order and followed with his subordinates.
Before they could cross the lake, they encountered a group of black whirring crowds, which startled Shulka and the others, and immediately lay on the ground and raised their guns.
"Don't shoot, your own people!" The other party shouted in the dark: "We are from the 333rd Battalion of the 1st Regiment!" ”
This made Shulka and the others stunned for a while...... The first battalion of the 333rd regiment, isn't that their own unit?
Then Shulka quickly understood, and without hesitation, shouted: "They are Germans, grenades!" ”
The soldiers took out their grenades, pulled the strings, and slammed them into the group of black shadows, only to explode the black shadows with a ghostly cry and wolf howl.
On the opposite side were indeed the German troops of Branfenburg.
Unable to take the attack for a long time and suffering heavy losses in the armored forces, Hult brought up a group of Branfenburg troops from the rear, hoping to tear through the enemy's line by night attack.
Hort's plan was as follows: the infantry would attack an hour before dawn, and then the panzers would follow behind, and by the time the panzers had passed through the lines, it was already dark, and it was a good time for the panzers to strike with all their might, and then the air power would follow.
Everything was well arranged, and he even learned through the capture of prisoners that the enemy was stationed in Dubosekovo with troops of the 1st Battalion of the 333rd Regiment.
"It turned out to be the breakout force!" When Hort heard this, he nodded and praised: "No wonder you can block the attack of the motorized division with the strength of the infantry alone!" ”
As a result, the Branfenburg troops, who had penetrated into the depth of the defense, naturally used the number of the 1st Battalion of the 333rd Regiment.
What the Germans didn't expect was that the first battalion was temporarily withdrawn from the front line and deployed on the second line because of Shulka's new idea.
After the grenade exploded, Shulka and the others charged again, and immediately killed and wounded the group of Brownenburg troops.
Pity these German soldiers of the Blanfenburg troops, after a long period of training, even learned the habits of the Russians...... Before he could play his role, he was defeated.
What's even more tragic is that they don't know where they did wrong when they die.
Several Germans surrendered, but the soldiers did not relent, and simply raised their rifles and shot them at close range.
This is an unwritten rule in the Soviet army, just as the German army does not accept Soviet prisoners of political workers, the Soviet army also has several categories of prisoners that are not accepted.
One of them was the German Brandenburg troops.
On the one hand, this was due to the fact that the Branfenburg troops were causing trouble among the Soviet troops, which the Soviets hated deeply.
On the other hand, if they accept this kind of German prisoners disguised as Soviet soldiers and can act like them on the battlefield, it is likely that they will escape again or even become spy agents.
This had happened before, when members of the German Brownenburg unit were captured and followed by a group of German prisoners and carried back, walking...... Naturally, the Branfenburg member began to push the German prisoner to become a Soviet escort, and by the time he was looked for again, he had long since disappeared.
In the present situation, the first battalion would not dare to keep the Brownenburg members as prisoners in the dark, and if they were allowed to escape and blend into the troops, there would undoubtedly be a big mess.
Stepping on a pile of corpses, as soon as they ran to the opposite bank, the soldiers formed a defensive line based on the terrain.
After waiting for a few more minutes, some routs retreated one after another in the darkness.
Because of the experience of the last time, the first thing Venyakov did was to disarm them all and take them to the rear for careful screening.
However, not many people escaped, and soon Shulka saw groups of Germans leaping forward under the moonlight.
Because the night was very dark, they did not find the Soviet troops lying on the ground to form a defensive line.
Venyakov did not speak, and neither did the others.
At this time, Captain Venyakov had no chance to give the order, because any noise could alarm the Germans and prepare them.
But at that moment, all the warriors knew as if they had a heart in their hearts, and it was time to get closer to the enemy before fighting...... This is a good opportunity for the Soviet army to come, and they will not let it go easily.
So, they waited quietly, holding their guns and holding their breath, watching the Germans approach their guns step by step.
This is the quality of a unit after a hundred battles.
Shulka suddenly realized that the troops had grown...... He wasn't aware of it, but when he thought about the time he fought in the Brest Fortress, many people were so scared that they hid or were so nervous that they couldn't help but shoot.
Now, they are able to calmly face the enemies who are coming to them step by step, even though they are far more numerous than their own.
Fifty meters, forty meters, thirty meters......
It was not until the Germans came to a distance of twenty meters in front of them that Venyakov shouted: "Fight!" ”
Submachine guns and machine guns immediately rang out, and the German troops who were at the forefront were knocked down in rows on the spot.
At the same time, grenades and mortars were also smashed at the Germans.
It's also a kind of synergy, a synergy between infantry and infantry.
To be precise, it is a synergy of infantry weapons, which is mainly used to launch a surprise attack on the enemy to cause instantaneous damage as it is now.
Submachine guns are responsible for accurate fire at close range, grenades are responsible for large-area kills at close range, and machine guns and mortars are responsible for killing at a slightly longer distance.
Each took its own responsibility, so more than half of the German soldiers were killed and wounded in an instant, and at this time the German troops did not even have time to lie down.
Of course, it would be better if there were assault rifles at this time, and a burst of charge was afraid that the German troops in front of them would soon be annihilated.
But it didn't seem to make much difference, because the Soviets then shouted and rushed forward with bayonets.
