"What about the back, what's going on in the back?" A slightly immature voice asked.

"What do you say?" Trode looked at him with a smile and said, "If it doesn't work out, can I still sit here and tell you a story?" ”

"yes, yes." The young man scratched his head in embarrassment, revealing a bright smirk.

Trood was now sitting on top of his tank, and the young man who had asked him questions was the maintenance guy in charge of repairing his No. 217 tank. However, this repairman is too young, and almost completely inexperienced in repairs, and a lot of knowledge is still on paper, and because the IV is updated too often, his knowledge on paper is also somewhat insufficient

At first, when he saw the tragic condition of Trode's chariot, the newcomer's first instinct was to call the more experienced repairers and ask them to repair it on his behalf. In this regard, Trode decided to let him repair it, and he explained some details to him on the side, at least let him solve the easy repairs, and it is not a good habit to retreat when he sees difficulties.

And at noon, the two tired men began to talk, and the topic naturally turned to the latest battle, and the heroic deeds of Trode had an endless place for this young man who had never even been on the front line, and there were endless places for him to be excited, saddened, and sighed

"But, sir, from what you say, it must have been a rather tragic charge." The young man asked, looking up, Trode.

"Oh?" Trode looked at him with interest and said, "I didn't expect you to be able to see through people's hearts." ”

"No, I don't have that ability." The young man waved his hand again and again, "I just heard from what you said, before the last charge, your chariot didn't seem to be damaged much." ”

"Indeed." Trode nodded and said a little sadly: "Except for the one on the front that collided with that little dent, it was caused when I hit that 'Valentine'." As for the rest, almost all of them were left over from the last fight. ”

"Still." Trode changed his words and said with a smile: "There are not many unlucky people who seem to be like me, so the final battle is actually not how difficult it is." ”

"But even if you say so. I'll see," the young man looked away from Trood and slowly moved to his mission, Tank 217.

From below, the track blades that had been mounted on top of the lower armor to reach the attack were long gone, replaced by several dented craters, one of which had been pierced. On the other hand, the upper armor was better, but the track pieces were gone, and there were a few scattered white lumps left on the armor plates, all of which were hit by shells. But it was caused by not piercing and wiping off the paint.

The turret armor is barely passable, not very difficult to repair - the additional armor around the turret has been beaten out of shape, and there is a depression on one side of the top observation hole, and the top top cover is gone, because a shell hit the edge of the observation hole, but the lucky Trod happened to be communicating with Roy with his head down at that time, but even if he took 10,000 steps back. At the spot where the shell hit, as long as Trode wasn't sick and put his head against the top cover of the observation hole. There wouldn't be any problems, so Tlord didn't think he was lucky about it, but the people around him didn't.

Looking at the side of the vehicle, like the turret, the side skirt armor is also tattered, but this is also a good part to repair. Replacing a new additional armor plate does not cost too many resources and will not be too laborious, and as for those bullet marks, it is even more OK to brush the paint. For example, the turret, gun barrel and other key parts, the No. 217 tank was not damaged much, which made Hans envious and jealous. Trode: Their engines weren't damaged at all. Slightly more important is that there are two load-bearing wheels that are damaged to varying degrees, but they are not difficult to repair, so although the whole vehicle looks a little damaged, but in general, the injuries received, except for the first armor, are not fatal, so it will not be too difficult to repair. This is one of the reasons why Trood was able to leave the young man behind to repair his beloved chariot.

However, when it comes to the bullet hole in the first armor, Yorkson and Roy are in a cold sweat, this shell was fired by the 6-pounder gun of a 'Churchill' Type III infantry tank, and its penetration is not difficult to use to hit the Trod and their IV. tank, and the track pieces in front of the armor have fallen off at that time, not only the thickness of the armor has been weakened, but the probability of the enemy shell ricolating has also been greatly reduced. In this way, the shell was directly submerged into the tank of Trode, but because its penetration depth was not too high, it stopped shortly after entering the tank, and its position was exactly under the feet of Yorkson and Lowy, at that time the two looked at the shell under their feet in a little stunned, Yorkson even clicked the bullet with his toes, and after confirming that it was an armor-piercing bullet and would not explode, he continued to drive the tank with peace of mind

"It's not that difficult, but it adds up to a lot of work, which is true." Trode said leisurely: "But don't worry, you take a break first, and we'll continue to talk." ”

"No, you don't." The young man wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said to Trode with a smile on his face: "I'll listen to you here and fix it at the same time, so that I won't be so tired when I am distracted." ”

"That's really not going to be able to do anything about you." Trode smiled and said, "So which passage do you want to hear next?" ”

"That's what happened when you rushed to the enemy with your squad." The young man's eyes lit up, and he stared at Trode tightly and said, "It's amazing that with so little ammunition, you can make such a brave frontal charge." ”

"Awesome?" Trode laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "If it weren't for the commander-in-chief's order, we would probably not be able to convince the other party at that time, and in that case, the outcome of this battle would definitely not be so easy." ”

"I won't go into the details, but the battle is progressing surprisingly fast. The enemy was routed by us without any real skills, and the follow-up troops followed closely and maintained the breach. From that moment on, there was nothing to do with us, and finally when the troops had retreated, the troops behind them quickly caught up with the large forces. We followed them back to Aziziyah, and then our task force was ordered to rest, and it was here that I met you. ”

As Trod said, they are still in Aziziyah, and although the replacement of the two divisions is in place, the handover of many positions has not yet been completed, so there is still some time before the 47th Panzer Division is withdrawn, which is just in time for the task force to repair the vehicles. And this time he helped Trode repair the tank. It was not the maintenance personnel of the 47th Division, but the personnel of the replacement armored division, because of the outstanding performance of the task force of the 47th Division in this operation, it won great recognition from friendly forces, and in order to show respect, at their request, Anselm also readily agreed, and this time the maintenance personnel were sent by them.

Trode paused. Pouting his lips, he continued: "I was against this at first, so it's normal that this is unexpected; But so. The squad leader with me, Derek, had always wanted to fight like this, but the wind was so smooth that he couldn't believe it. ”

"How so?" The soldier asked, looking puzzled.

Trood picked up a wrench that was beside him, tapped his tank lightly with it, and said, "They're scared." Although the follow-up troops were more numerous than the previous ones in terms of number and weapons, they still had no bottom in their hearts. ”

"For this, on the way back. I've thought about it too. Trode looked up at the sky and said as if to himself, "I really can't do such a thing, and personally, the risk is too great." ”

"The risk will definitely be very high" The young man was a little confused, and what he said to Trode was only a simple response.

"Hehe, maybe you don't understand, but I know very well that he's gambling." Trode finished this sentence with emotion, and then laughed to himself: "Maybe in his opinion, it is not gambling at all." ”

Trode looked at the young man next to him and said, "Okay, you must still be confused now, I'll tell you slowly." ”

"Hmm." The lad nodded sharply.

Trode nodded and said, "First of all, why do I say he's gambling?" Because such a head-on breakthrough is unreliable for me no matter how I look at it. ”

"However, he must have guessed that this would be the result before, so he dared to fight with us, otherwise, as he said, he wouldn't be able to explain to our division commander, right?" Trode shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Just as he expected, they were broken by us, and they were able to stand there to defend because they were outnumbered, but they were still afraid, afraid that we would fight at any moment." Trode smashed his mouth and said, "Since we are all so afraid, if we continue to dispatch our sharp knife, the psychological pressure on the enemy will increase exponentially." As for the damage of the three tanks and tanks that we missed, they would not have paid attention to it at all because of the excessive fear, and the problem of ammunition was only known to our squad, so there was no need to worry. ”

"That's really amazing, you can guess the enemy to such an extent." The young man's eyes were a little dumbfounded, looking at the wilderness on the side.

"What? Do you want to learn? Trode jumped out of the car and stood beside him and asked.

"No, no, I don't have that ability, I want to learn this tank repair skill right now," the young man said, waving his hand.

"And then what?" Trode patted him on the shoulder and said, "Then be a master and take the newcomers below." ”

"Yes, yes!" The young man hurriedly replied.

"Poof!" Trode smiled and said, "Although I'm not much older than you, this sentence may not be appropriate for me, but this should be the best way to go." ”

"Why?" The young man looked at Trode suspiciously: "I originally wanted to enlist in the army as a glorious soldier, but who knows, come here" From his words, Trode could clearly feel his loss at this time.

"Look at this." Trood lifted the curtain from his left eye with his hand and showed it to the young man.

The young man said weakly, "This is caused by you when you were fighting." ”

"You might think it's my honor, but that's for us." Trode changed his words and said, "To outsiders, this is just an ordinary scar. ”

Trood stared into his eyes, which made him flinch a little, but Trode also took a step forward and said: "Our country still needs young people to build, fighting war is not the final way out, if all young people go to the front line to fight, then this country will be terrible." ”

"But if we don't do anything, if we fight," said the young man, worried.

When he said this, Trode put his index finger in front of his mouth and told him to stop talking, and he laughed a little and said, "How can you lose?" Now that we are in such a state of flux, I am sure that Britain and France will not survive for two years! ”

"Really?!" This sentence immediately filled the young man's eyes with little stars.

"Don't get so excited." Trode patted him on the shoulder and said: "But this is also a premise, if you logistics personnel want to go to the front line, and no one will repair the equipment if it is broken, then we on the front line will not be able to fight."

"Ahh That's right! The young man suddenly realized, and then suddenly grabbed Trode's hand and said, "Then if I repair the car well, can I also get a special glorious reward?" ”

"This" Trode wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and after three seconds of mental struggle, he said to him solemnly: "Yes, there will be!" ”

"That's great, thank you so much!" The young man jumped around with joy.

Finally, under Trode's desperate reassurance, he finally continued to repair the car with peace of mind, but Trode reflected on himself for a long time because of this sentence (to be continued......
