Chapter 467: Broken Bridge
Blood splattered, screams erupted, and a company of Soviet troops who rushed up turned into a pile of corpses and wounded in the river.
"Comrade Commissar!" Captain Vladimir shouted at Yegorshi at the sound of gunfire: "Stop the attack!" The enemy's firepower is tight, they are experienced combat units, and morale is high......"
"Shut up!" Yegorshi impatiently interrupted Captain Vladimir's words, and said to Vladimir very seriously: "Comrade Captain, you have to be clear, our morale is always stronger than the enemy, they are just trying to survive, they are doing the last dying struggle, as long as we attack with all our strength, we can break through their defense line and string them one by one on bayonets!" ”
As he spoke, Yegorshi waved his pistol and shouted to the Soviet soldier lying beside him with a look of fear in his eyes: "Come on, comrades, let's prepare for the final attack!" There are no cowards in the fifth ski camp ......"
"Comrade Commissar!" Captain Vladimir interrupted Yegorshi's words, and he said with some helplessness: "Please...... Allow me to lead them in the charge myself! ”
Yegorshi shook Captain Vladimir's hand heavily, patted Yegorshi on the shoulder at the same time, and said: "Salute to you, Comrade Captain, take them up!" We're going to win! ”
Vladimir gritted his teeth and ordered: "Lvivich, after the charge, shoot out all the shells in the shortest possible time, do you understand?" ”
"Yes, Comrade Captain!"
"Terruev, you have to keep the machine gun ringing, whether you see the enemy or not!"
"Yes, Comrade Captain!"
"Trijevic!" Finally, Vladimir patted the shoulder of a Soviet soldier with a sniper rifle in his hand, and said heavily: "The fifth ski battalion will be handed over to you, kill their machine gunners and officers!" ”
"Yes, Comrade Captain!"
"Others, follow me!" With that, Vladimir pulled out his pistol from his waist and shouted: "Cheer up, boys, the Germans are waiting on the opposite side to surrender to us!" ”
The Soviet soldiers couldn't help but laugh.
Then Vladimir waved Tokarev in his hand and shouted: "For the Motherland, for Stalin, Ula!" ”
"Ulla!"
……
The Soviet soldiers shouted and jumped out of their hiding places, rushing towards the opposite shore one after another. Of course, Vladimir is also one of them.
Qin Chuan, who was on the other side, clearly felt that the Soviet army's charge was a little different.
First of all, the artillery fire and machine guns were indiscriminately fired, and they didn't care about the ammunition at all, and they didn't care whether they would accidentally injure their own people who rushed ahead...... The latter was not surprising, because if they managed to break through the enemy's lines, the Soviets would not care about accidental injuries.
The former is a bit odd, as ski camps usually don't carry much ammunition in order to be able to maneuver faster. If they do this, it won't take long for them to run out of ammunition.
In other words, this is likely to be the final charge of the ski force on the other side.
Secondly, shortly after the battle, the two German machine guns were dumbfounded.
This made Qin Chuan realize that there were snipers on the other side, Soviet snipers.
In a way, Soviet snipers can also be said to be the teachers of German snipers...... Because the German sniper school used the video shot by Soviet snipers as a teaching material for training snipers.
Only then did Qin Chuan realize that the video was not useless, because at least he could understand the training process of Soviet snipers.
But who's to say?
The video is an old video, and the video is one set, and the actual combat is another, and you can't complain to the Soviets before you die: "You guys, that's not what the video says!" ”
Qin Chuan slowly moved his rifle and looked for the Soviet sniper in the scope.
It wasn't long before Qin Chuan discovered his location...... This Soviet sniper was very smart, he hid behind a vertical section of rotten wood, although half of his range of fire would be blocked, but it didn't matter, his task was to suppress the other half of the range of two machine guns.
In this way, he will be at least half less dangerous.
For example, now, although Qin Chuan found him, he was helpless, because the bullet could not penetrate the rotten wood and hit it, let alone turn around.
Qin Chuan seems to have only two choices now, one is to shift his position and run to a position where he can see the other party. But this is not only time-consuming but also quite dangerous, because as soon as Qin Chuan enters the area controlled by the opponent's sniper, he will immediately arouse his alert...... This will limit Qin Chuan to passivity.
Another option is to let the mortar gunners solve it.
But it doesn't seem like a good idea either...... At this time, it is time for the enemy to charge, and the mortar is either suppressing the enemy artillery or firing shells at the enemy's charging troops, and a mortar must be pulled in for a sniper...... This is clearly not worth the cost.
After carefully observing the location of the rotten wood in the sniper scope, Qin Chuan had an idea.
He turned his scope to the snow beneath the rotten wood and pulled the trigger with a "bang".
The snow shook and dropped a small piece, revealing the first few short pieces of wood that were staggered together, perhaps a makeshift wooden bridge before the war, but the Soviets presumably blew it up because they didn't want it to be used by the Germans.
The middle part of the bridge is gone, and only a few remnants remain on both sides, supported by a section of wood that has been cracked by the blast. The rotten piece of wood where the Soviet snipers were hiding was on it.
"Bang!" Qin Chuan fired another shot.
The target was the cracked plank, and the bullet "snapped" and added a bullet hole to the crack, but perhaps because the low temperature froze the plank and increased its hardness, the plank was not broken.
Qin Chuan did not hesitate, and then pulled the trigger again and shot a bullet.
With a crisp sound, the planks snapped, and the nearby snow fell down with a "thud", along with the rotten log, revealing a snow-white Soviet soldier lying behind him, holding a Mosin Nagant rifle with a scope.
The Soviet soldier turned his head sideways in astonishment and looked in the direction of Qin Chuan, obviously he had spotted the danger and found Qin Chuan's location at the first time.
But it was already too late, Qin Chuan pulled the trigger...... The bullet flew towards the target at a speed of 755 meters per second, and the heat formed a line in the air, and then pointed directly at the head of the Soviet sniper.
The Soviet sniper turned his head to the side, and then because of the toughness of his neck, he returned to lie on his stomach in the snow, as if he was asleep.
