Chapter 21: Crossing the Battlefield
"Understood...... Sister Chu Chu ......" Du Lili lowered her head and said softly. Xiao Tiantian and Wang Linlin's expressions also looked a little sad.
"We not only have to live here, but we have to live well." Sun Hui saw that the atmosphere in the tank had become dull and sad, and pretended to be relaxed and said, "As Chu Chu said just now, another purpose of our battle is to seize supplies from the enemy to make our lives better. Although we were able to get supplies every night, the food was too simple and not nutritious enough to help you maintain your appearance, and because Leningrad was under siege, famine was coming soon, so we had to take good food from the Germans to replenish ourselves. ”
"Yes, you can't always eat potatoes and sausages, but now you have cabbage and cabbage......"
"You'll get fat if you always eat potatoes......"
Sun Hui then said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Also, you guys haven't taken a bath for two days, right?" I'm going to have to find a place for you to take a bath, right? ”
Sun Hui's interruption really diverted the attention of the girls.
"yes, yes! Although Sister Chu Chu's cooking skills are good, she always eats potato stew or something, and she will get tired of eating it! What else is good to eat there for the Germans? ”
"Alas, it's going to take a fight to get something to eat......"
"We haven't showered for two days, do we smell? Brother Sun, you have a long nose, don't you dislike us? ”
"Our clothes are all new! It's tasteless! “
"Brother Sun, do you want to see us take a bath?"
"That's right! How do you mention taking a bath? Brother Sun, you big pervert! ”
Seeing that they were looking at him with vigilant eyes, Sun Hui couldn't help but regret mentioning the bath.
"What nonsense are you all talking about!" Ye Chuchu first glanced at Sun Hui, and then glared at the girls, "That is, your brother Sun is careful, and he will think of this for you, and when you don't take a bath for a month, see what you do!" ”
"Oops! I'm sorry Brother Sun! Thank you, Brother Sun, for thinking of us! Du Lili hurriedly apologized to Sun Hui.
"It's okay, I was negligent on my part, I forgot that there is a difference between men and women, and I said it directly." Sun Hui smiled and waved his hand, "I will definitely help you solve this problem, so that everyone can take a hot bath comfortably and not be disturbed by bad people." ”
"Thank you, Brother Sun!"
"Brother Sun is so good!"
"What's next for us?" Ye Chuchu interrupted the girls' gossip and asked Sun Hui.
"The scale of the siege of Leningrad is very large, it is better for us not to join the war group rashly, we should now stay away from the city, go to the villages and towns on the outskirts of the city, and have access to small groups of Soviet partisans, and it is better to rely on them." Sun Hui said his thoughts, "This way we can avoid large-scale battles as much as possible, and we can also get certain supplies from the guerrillas, and then we can get as close as possible to the supply depots of the Soviet army to get what we need." ”
"Very well, let's do it." Ye Chuchu nodded.
The plan was decided, and the "521" group set off.
At this moment, Sun Hui did not expect that not long after the "KV-1" tank left the village, two horseback riders came to the village, they walked slowly along the street in the village, stopped for a moment, turned around again, walked around the rubble field briefly, and then galloped towards the grassland. Both men had rifles on their backs and sat in the saddle looking around like thieves. The two men on horseback were partisan scouts who were ordered to find out how many Germans were in the villages, who had been appointed as village chiefs and policemen, and who had been killed and who had been sent to hard labor.
The guerrillas were stationed in the dense forest far from the village, on the banks of the large river fed by the nameless stream of the village. After returning to the partisans, the two scouts reported to the captain what they had seen, saying: "The farm has been destroyed by the enemy. The village burned to the ground, there was not a single house left, there was not a single living person, only a black and quiet piece of broken bricks, our men should have fought a battle with the enemy here, there were 3 destroyed enemy tanks on the scene, but there was no wreckage of our army tanks, it should have been our armored units that passed by there and destroyed the enemy......"
The "521" car group moved along the forest path, it turned out that Sun Hui thought that the front had been a forest area, but soon after the tank came to the plain, there were corpses and vehicle wreckage everywhere, most of them were Soviet troops, a few were Germans, it seemed that a mechanized corps of the Soviet army was besieged by the Germans here, and the losses were very heavy. But the tank walked for almost half an hour, and there was still no end to the battlefield.
At this time, the sky was still gray, just like before the rainstorm, Sun Hui heard the roar of airplanes flying overhead from time to time, and his heart was secretly shocked, he got up and opened the top cover of the turret, leaned out, raised his head and held a telescope to look into the sky.
Several planes that were unusually familiar to him, a military fan, loomed in the sky.
"What's wrong? Brother Sun? Ye Chuchu asked uneasily.
"It's 'Stuka.'" Sun Hui replied to her as he quickly retracted and closed the turret cover, "German dive bombers." ”
"Huh? Is this kind of aircraft powerful? Xiao Tiantian heard the nervousness in Sun Hui's words and asked.
"It's a threat to us." Sun Hui said and shouted to Du Lili: "Lili! See the pile of wreckage in front of you? Park there! ”
"Okay, Brother Sun." Du Lili accelerated the "KV-1" tank to the side of the wreckage of a "T-26" tank, and stopped next to it, Sun Hui turned the turret to one side, and lowered the barrel, camouflaging the tank as if it had been damaged.
"Brother Sun, are you saying that this kind of plane will fly down and bomb us when it sees us?" Wang Linlin asked Sun Hui in a nervous whisper.
"If they want to deal with us, they have to drop 250 kilograms of bombs and hit us directly, don't worry." Sun Hui comforted her and said, "But be careful to sail the Ten Thousand Year Boat, and when we encounter these guys, let's try to be as careful as possible." ”
Hearing Sun Hui say this, the girls were relieved, because they didn't have much military knowledge and had no concept of "screaming demons" like "Stuka", but Sun Hui, as a World War II military fan, knew "Stuka" very clearly.
However, his words of comfort to the girls were not deceiving, because in the early days of the Soviet-German war, it was not easy for the "Stuka" to attack a lone tank.
