Ensign Alexei was a Siberian, and most of the members of the platoon he led were like that.

Alexei's unit is special, first of all, they all participated in the Battle of Normenheim three years ago, which allowed Alexei and others to gain rich combat experience.

Secondly, Alexei's unit has undergone "extreme cold training", and the so-called "extreme cold training" is a kind of extreme training for troops carried out in Siberia under conditions of tens of degrees below zero...... They often have only one handful of fried noodles a day, and it is difficult to survive in such situations, but they are required to be combative.

This is one of the reasons why General Pukaev sent them on a mission.

Alexei was frustrated by this mission, as he didn't know much information, and although he had a photo of the "legendary sergeant" in his hand, it was of little use.

The reason is that this photo is a photo of the Soviet spy from the time of enlistment from a German newspaper, not to mention that it has been a while now, let's just say that it is winter and it is still a battlefield, and everyone has changed their appearance because they have not bathed or shaved for a long time, and they cannot recognize people from the photo at all.

The only thing Alexei could do was to find out the location of this "legendary sergeant" from the number.

So he asked Furyashi to inquire about the location of the 2nd Infantry Company of the 1st Battalion.

She is seventy-one years old and is the inside line of the Soviet army in Holm, but this is also her advantage, because no one can doubt that an old woman who has difficulty even walking can fall to the ground at any moment and die of hunger and cold.

Feryahi lived up to her expectations, and she soon brought good news to Alexei.

"They're in the northwest corner, next to the forge!" "There are two houses, which used to belong to the Larissa sisters, but as you know, they are in ruins, and they are in that cellar!" ”

"How did you get this information?" Alexei asked if he had to make sure the information was reliable.

"I asked from the Germans!" "I told him that the Second Company had requisitioned us to carry the wounded and the dead, but I couldn't find it!" ”

"They often let you do this, don't they?"

"Yes!"

Alexei nodded in satisfaction, which showed that the Germans would not be suspicious because of this.

"Now!" Alexei turned to the team behind him and said, "It's much easier, our target is a sniper, so he should have a sniper rifle in his hand, and his rank is a second lieutenant...... But this seems to be useless, it is difficult to see his rank from a distance under the camouflage cloak! ”

Looking at the map, Alexei said: "Two plans, one is to ambush at position three and wait for the target to appear. ”

"This doesn't seem like a safe plan!" One of the sergeants replied: "There are Germans everywhere here, and it is easy for them to find out if they are in ambush somewhere for a long time, and then the enemy will search for us, and we will be exposed before we have completed our mission!" ”

"Another option ......"

Qin Chuan didn't know anything about the movements of the Soviet army, he still ran between the defense line and the cellar as usual, because the Soviet army generally attacked at night, so Qin Chuan was more on duty at night and rested in the cellar during the day.

This is one of the reasons why it is difficult for the Soviet assassination team to find a target.

It was nine o'clock in the morning, which is usually a time for both sides to rest and rest, but today is a little different......

"Captain!" Dominic ran into the cellar and said to Qin Chuan: "The Soviets have attacked!" ”

"Attack? What offense? Qin Chuan opened his jerky eyes and looked at the entrance of the tunnel, then looked at his watch, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Dominic, what you should report during the day is a lieutenant colonel!" ”

"It's the Lieutenant Colonel who asked me to wake you up!" Dominic said: "The Soviets have attacked, a dozen tanks!" ”

Qin Chuan listened with a confused expression: "More than a dozen tanks? ”

"Yes!" Dominic nodded.

Qin Chuan got up as soon as he got up, carried his rifle and walked towards the defensive line, thinking as he went...... Are the Soviets crazy? Sending more than a dozen tanks to attack during the day, isn't this looking for death?!

Looking down along the communication trench into the defensive line, there were more than a dozen tanks covering the Soviet attack, and those tanks were the "Matilda" tanks that the Germans were very familiar with.

It is not at all surprising that the Matilda tank appeared on the Soviet-German battlefield, it was the aid of the British to the Soviet Union...... The British army provided the most assistance to the Soviet Union with 2,394 "Valentine" tanks, followed by "Matilda" tanks, with a total of 1,084 tanks.

However, the Soviets did not like to use these infantry tanks, because they were too maneuverable, especially the "Matilda", so they were more used in second-line operations, such as the current attack on Holm.

But now this way of playing is too strange, these tanks are almost all used as cannon fodder!

Qin Chuan guessed that this may be because the Soviet army could not attack for a long time at night, so they wanted to change the offensive method, such as organizing an air force to intercept the air support that the German army was coming, and then the tanks could exert a stronger offensive power during the day than at night.

But Qin Chuan soon found that this judgment was not valid, because several "Stuka" bombers had already arrived and launched a massacre of "Matilda" on the ground that was crawling slowly like turtles.

Then, Qin Chuan suddenly realized that he had been fooled, and the Soviet army's actions were to lure himself out.

What do you do with it?

What can the Soviets do with themselves?

In the next second, Qin Chuan shrank his head into the trench, and then climbed quickly for some distance......

A row of bullets shot out a string of ice flowers at the position he had just now, and there were even a few bullets that brought up Qin Chuan's camouflage cloak, and Qin Chuan found that several bullet holes had been punched out of it afterwards.

"The enemy is behind!" Qin Chuan shouted.

Qin Chuan judged that he had at least one machine gun and one sniper rifle locked on to him at the first time, so Qin Chuan didn't dare to come forward again.

The German soldiers looked back in astonishment, and sure enough, they saw a small group of enemies dressed as civilians appeared behind them, and they were holding their guns and attacking the German defense line in a very professional coordinated formation.

Just as the Germans turned to organize their defense, a whistling of artillery shells was heard in the sky......

This made Qin Chuan even more sure that the target of the Soviet army's attack was him, because he could hear from the whistling of the shells, which were all aimed at his position.
