Chapter 244: Cossacks
Under the cover of the fire of several tanks in an offensive formation side by side, Shulka rushed to the front of the building with a platoon.
The door was so broken that the Cossacks kicked it open and threw a grenade into it.
At the same time, the veteran with another platoon fired a burst of rifles at the window of the building from a few dozen meters away, and one of the machine guns swept at the window.
Many times they shoot this way without seeing people and into empty windows...... It's not a waste of bullets, it's a synergy.
When Shulka and the others approached the building, especially against the door, it was very dangerous, and the enemy only had to throw a few grenades from the upper floor to cause a lot of casualties to Shulka and others.
But if the window is "whizzing" bullets, then the German soldiers have no chance to get close to the window or lean in to check the situation, which ensures the safety of Shulka and others.
Then, after the grenade exploded, Shulka and the Cossacks rushed in with guns raised.
"Bang bang" There was a burst of gunfire, and several German soldiers were knocked to the ground before they could move.
Don't look at the Cossack who is usually unruly in the ranks, but he is not ambiguous at all when he fights, he rushes ahead with a PPD submachine gun, and before the person jumps out, the gun sticks out first, and the "boom" is a shuttle of bullets...... There were several screams from the back of the stairs.
The Cossack then ran up the stairs and quickly threw a burning grenade upstairs, and then fled...... It seems that only a submachine gunner can do this, and the submachine gun has a shoulder strap that hangs on half of the shoulder, and a good fighter can quickly let go and pull the grenade and throw it upward.
This scene made Shulka a little stunned.
The bullet followed the Cossacks back to the corner, and the Germans upstairs didn't even realize that a grenade was smoking behind them......
Needless to say, what happened then was that after a "boom", several German soldiers were blown up from the upper floor.
Later, Shulka asked the Cossacks to teach the whole company of submachine guns, but it turned out that it was not easy to learn: it had to learn how to throw a grenade with his left hand...... The submachine gun is hung on the right shoulder, and it is inconvenient to throw it with the right hand, so you must hold it in your left hand and pull the string with your right hand, and then throw it up.
Throwing it up is the most difficult, especially from downstairs to upstairs, if you accidentally get in the way, you will be knocked back to the first floor and blow yourself up......
In short, you have to practice it over and over again.
Shulka raised his gun and fired several shots at the ceiling, and he judged the enemy's position from the vibration of the ceiling, and knocked the two Germans to the ground.
Soon, a building was cleared, and from the top of the building you can see the "No. 1" bridge.
The machine gunners, who followed from the rear, opened fire from the window and captured the bridgehead.
The tanks continued to move forward, chasing the Germans stationed at the bridgehead, and then drove up to the "No. 1 Bridge".
Tank No. 239 stopped downstairs, and Fedosiev got out of the tank compartment and shouted upstairs: "Hurry up, Comrade Shulka, the enemy is going to be killed by them!" ”
But at this moment, a few flares rose into the air to illuminate this side as if it were daylight, and then only a few "boom" shots were heard, and a T34 driving onto the bridge immediately burst into flames.
A moment later there was another whistling of shells.
Shulka heard that the sound of the cannon was wrong, and hurriedly ordered: "Hide! ”
"Boom" a few shells shook the building, and the tiles and dust fell down.
"Get out of here!" Shulka quickly reacted, grabbed his rifle and ran downstairs.
But after not running a few steps, he found the Cossack lying on the ground unable to move.
Shulka habitually dragged him, but did not drag, and the Cossack screamed miserably, exclaiming: "My leg is clamped, Comrade Ensign!" ”
Looking down by the light of the flares, I saw that the Cossacks were pressed to the floor by the collapsed beams at their knees.
"Get out of here, Comrade Ensign!" The Cossack said: "Leave me alone, this building will soon collapse!" ”
The Cossacks were right, the building was in some way a trap set by the enemy, and they had already aimed their guns here to blow it up when they lost it, and those shells were only the first batch.
The Cossacks seemed to be unable to hold back, and even if Shulka called back the evacuated soldiers, he would not be able to raise the beam, and there was not enough time at all.
Shulka did not hesitate, and of course he did not leave the Cossacks alone, he just said to the Cossacks: "You bear with me!" ”
"What?" The Cossacks did not understand what Shulka meant by this.
Before the words fell, Shulka stomped on the Cossack's pressed foot, only to hear a "pop", and at the same time a miserable cry came from the Cossack.
A hole in the floor that had already been shattered by bullets, Shulka successfully pulled the Cossack's foot out, picked him up and ran towards the stairs.
"Woo......" shells followed closely behind the two and exploded in clusters.
Shulka and the Cossacks almost rolled down the stairs, one floor after another, and when they finally escaped from the house and were dragged a little distance away by several of their men, they saw the building collapse into ruins like building blocks with a "bang".
By this time, Shulka and the Cossacks were covered in blood and dust.
The Cossack gasped and looked at Shulka's "hehe" smirk.
After laughing for a while, the Cossack said with surprise: "I thought you would definitely leave me, Comrade Company Commander!" ”
"Why?" Shulka asked rhetorically.
"Because ......" Cossacks were somewhat difficult to say.
"Because you're always unruly?"
"Yes!" The Cossack said: "I have always been against you, so to speak, haven't I? ”
"Maybe!" Shulka said, "But you are my soldier, and you are a soldier who can fight, and keeping you means that we can kill a few more Germans, do you say?" So, for the sake of the Germans, I'm saving you! ”
The Cossacks laughed.
The medics came up and checked the Cossack's leg, and the Cossack asked: "Is my leg okay?" ”
The medic asked the Cossack to try to move, and then told him: "It's all right, just a little skin wound!" ”
The Cossack breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked Shulka somewhat strangely: "Comrade Ensign, how do you know that my bones are harder than the floor?" ”
"What?"
"I mean...... You might have broken my leg bones instead of the floor, didn't you? ”
"Oh!" Shulka replied: "Yes! In fact, I know which one is harder! ”
The Cossacks had black lines on their faces.
