Chapter 114: The Battle to Rescue Friendly Forces
This group of two battalions of German troops, after the attrition of the war, actually put into battle 800 men. These guys have also been advancing in the forest for a long time, and they have been chasing a large guerrilla force.
Compared to the partisans, the Germans were more well-equipped. However, because of the long field war, their attrition is also very serious. In this battle, they chased after the guerrillas, and they could not wait to launch an offensive, as if they were afraid that the cooked duck would fly away. The troops spread out in a pincer offensive, vowing to encircle the guerrillas and annihilate them completely.
Yang Mingzhi didn't know which part of the enemy was, nor did he know their battle formation, he only knew that this was a large group of enemies, but there were many friendly troops, or was this a close battle?
Therefore, he personally commanded the main attack force, and the two battalions were attrition after battle, plus the guard company, with a total strength of more than 700 people (part of the force was placed in the rear to protect the wounded and other personnel).
The Soviets attacked the enemy's back directly, and the submachine gunners and trappers fired as they advanced. Many soldiers used captured weapons to pick up K98 rifles and matching 7.92mm ammunition from dead men and go into battle, more to save 7.62mm Soviet-style ammunition.
At the same time, the Germans were advancing. Their squad tactics revolved around machine guns, with the MG13 and MG34 general-purpose machine guns spewing tongues of fire. The battle was quite fierce, after all, the guerrillas fighting with them were not a rabble without combat effectiveness.
The barrel of the machine gun was able to be roasted, and the German soldiers hurriedly wore asbestos gloves, replaced the barrel, replaced it with a new one, and continued to shoot.
Due to a series of pre-war military restrictions, Germany banned the development of water-cooled machine guns, so they developed air-cooled machine guns in a different way. The Germans were heavily armed with general-purpose machine guns and formed front-line combat units based on rifles and machine guns. As for submachine guns, they were generally only equipped only by officers and sergeants.
Yang Mingzhi knew that the enemy's MP38 submachine gun was of very good quality, with an effective firing range of 300 meters, and the spread of bullets within 100 meters was comparable to that of future assault rifles, and the only disadvantage was that the kinetic energy was too poor.
But fighting in the forest, where the fighters are often difficult to aim, the vegetation is dense and the thick trunks are obstacles.
"If you find the enemy, don't skimp on bullets, just shoot as much as you can in their direction. We are now plentiful with ammunition. Yang Mingzhi ordered.
Anyway, every surviving soldier pulled a lot of ammunition out of the enemy's corpse, and these German-made bullets were not used in vain, and their muzzle kinetic energy was even stronger.
Because of his injury, Yang Mingzhi could no longer charge wildly. He ordered the guard company to set an example and give the commander Balzen an honorable task. "You led the troops all the way to the onslaught, leading the large army. We're going to tear holes in the enemy's line, and then we're going to break them up and break them down individually. β
Balzen saluted, knowing that his handful of men would set an example, and immediately issued a military order. "If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent, and I will lead everyone to victory."
With that, he set off with the guard company. Yang Mingzhi looked at them with relief, and he stayed on the periphery of the battlefield with his wife and others.
"Alright, our large forces have already begun to charge, let's quickly set up machine gun positions!" Under Yang Mingzhi's order, Carambola unloaded her rifle and lay on the mound with Natasha.
Lying on their stomachs with them was Kharkov, the kid who also made a makeshift cameo as a sniper and fitted his Mosin Nagant with a PU scope. Igor, the other, quickly assembled the anti-tank gun and installed an exaggerated muzzle detractor.
Yang Mingzhi raised his binoculars and stared at the offensive of the troops, and the roar of Ula sounded in his ears.
Seeing that Igor was preparing to shoot with an anti-tank gun, Yang Mingzhi took matters into his own hands and gave Natasha a new order. "My dear, you've come to use this bulky weapon. It's so powerful that it can break tree trunks, and I want you to clear obstacles and take out enemy machine gunners in one go. β
The anti-tank gun was replaced, and this big guy Natasha used it many times. Yesterday it was Betsica who was using it, and this time it was her turn.
Just now casually used an intimate word, Yang Mingzhi was also a little worried that his wife would be jealous. This time he untied the bandage on his left arm and neck, and stroked her back, "Okay, wife, I'm with you." You calm down and look for your prey, and I'll be your observer. "But, husband, your arm."
"Out of the way. You still call me brother, I'm more at ease. Now you shoot calmly. β
In this way, she did seem very calm, surrounded by gunfire, and star fruit seemed to be an outsider.
Without saying a word, she suddenly pulled the trigger. Mosin Nagant's recoil acted on him, and his delicate body was shaken.
βhitοΌ Pull the bolt and reload. β
Boom! Another shot.
βhitοΌ Pull the bolt and reload. β
Five shots were fired in a row, and the magazine was empty, and all five shots were hit. Yang Mingzhi was by his side the whole time, and as an observer, it was certain that she had hit five German devils, either with a headshot or a bullet in the torso.
"Well done, you keep up the good work, I also have to point out your sister Natasha." After that, Yang Mingzhi turned around, and the rest was the battle of star fruit itself.
Yang Mingzhi acted as an observer for the young girl, and she used a heavy weapon that was two meters long. The accuracy of the anti-tank gun is naturally not as good as that of Barrett, because the battlefield is not large, and it can still hit accurately.
Therefore, Yang Mingzhi looked at an unlucky German soldier, who was torn from his low waist, and his internal organs and blood were scattered all over the ground. The bloody scene was shocking, and the telescopes saw the incredible expressions of several Germans. Then, the unlucky ones were also hit by the flying bullets.
The Soviet offensive was in full swing, and Balzen led a reconnaissance company and a guard company, which were heavily armed with submachine guns. Bobosha, Bobode, and MP38, although the bullets of the pistol bullets are weak, the dense bullets still beat the enemy into a beecomb one by one.
In the forest, the soldiers also found cover very well, and the trunks became places to hide from bullets. It's just that the rifle firepower of the German army is too thin, and it is not at all an opponent of the dense submachine guns and machine guns of the Soviet army, not to mention that the Soviet army also has mortars.
The Soviets captured five small German 50-mm mortars, which were indeed very small and had a very close range. With the addition of the original ten, the artillerymen were ordered to use all the shells. Although the artillery company commander was worried that there would be fighting in the future, Yang Mingzhi ordered him to make reservations. The so-called bottles and cans can be rebuilt and captured, if this battle is protracted, unnecessary casualties are a disaster.
Shells fell from the sky and exploded in the enemy's camp, and the enemy suffered huge losses at once.
The Soviets advanced with great courage in the face of artillery fire, and at this moment, the German army was under attack from four directions.
They had intended to destroy the partisans, but the tide of the war turned drastically, they encountered a counter-onslaught from the partisans, and the Germans were surrounded.
Yang Mingzhi could observe that the enemy was shrinking the formation, and even more gratifyingly, he saw a guy wearing a large-brimmed military hat in the telescope.
"Girls, pay attention to the enemy officers, don't skimp on bullets, hit me!"
Natasha turned to the bullet handed by Igor, and she followed the direction of the officer's finger and finally found the officer.
"Deputy division commander, that person is hiding behind a tree trunk, what should I do?" The girl asked loudly.
"What else can I do? Igor, replace her with tungsten core bullets and kill the enemy by piercing the tree! β
Natasha immediately withdrew her bullet and replaced it with a deeper one. The stock of this kind of ammunition is already very small, and if it was fired accurately enough, it could destroy the enemy's engine with one shot, and now it is not bad to use it to hunt down the enemy's officers.
In anticipation, Natasha pulled the trigger, and the tungsten core armor-piercing projectile flew out at a speed of more than one kilometer per second. Intense hot gunpowder gas gushed out from both sides of the reducer, and the flames flashed out. In just a few tens of milliseconds, in the blink of an eye, the bullet penetrated the trees, Yang Mingzhi and Carambola kept staring at the telescope, only to see a large pile of blood-red things flying out from behind the trees.
"Well done! The enemy is dead! β
In addition to being excited, Yang Mingzhi also saw the tree fall down, and soon the enemy was in a mess.
"Natasha, you kid is not simple, I think you killed the enemy's battalion commander or something." Yang Mingzhi excitedly patted his back three times as a reward.
The troops began to close in, and the two battalions of Yevgeny and Ravlenty had already joined the partisans. At first, the two sides almost fought each other, until both sides were chanting Russian, and the uniforms of both sides, although very shabby, were the same.
Needless to say, the supremacy of the battlefield did not report to the friendly forces and the friendly forces at the sight, and the troops of the division had only one purpose, to wipe out all the German troops in the encirclement. After the battle, think long-term.
