Chapter 565: Rest

"Hmm...... My head hurts......"

At eight o'clock in the morning, Andrei squatted next to the tank with his forehead pressed and took deep breaths in pain. But although it was painful, it was also caused by his own doing. First of all, I didn't sleep at all in the first half of the night, and in the second half of the night, I led the team to a sneak attack, which was already very brain-consuming. However, when everyone returned to the camp to rest, that is, around the time of about 4 o'clock, he had an unpleasant conversation with Natalia, and then, after drinking heavily until he was unconscious, he was taken care of by his comrades before falling asleep peacefully.

However, just more than two hours of sleep is definitely not enough for a person who drinks vodka until he vomits, even if Andrey's is stronger than the average person, it is no exception.

"Whew...... ...... "Andrei was panting frequently and was trying to get himself back to shape. However, even if the stiffness of the body is restored, the brain that has been severely hit by alcohol is not so easy to recover. Although Andrei was very awake at this time, as long as he thought about things, he would feel his head start to hurt, and then the picture of thinking would turn into a black and white snowflake......

"Damn it, I don't have anything to drink!" Andrei blamed himself for hammering the tank and made a muffled sound. After a brief reflection, Andrei decided that he could not survive like this, and that he had to continue to rest, otherwise he would not be able to cope with the afternoon battle at all.

Going to rest at eight o'clock in the morning was impossible in normal times, but Andrei had predicted that the enemy would slow down the pace of his attack because of their night attack, so the possibility of a large-scale attack this morning was slim. As a result, most of the members of Team 217 are still resting, as long as a few are on duty. As for Andre, he got up completely by his usual biological clock, but now the actual situation does not allow him to hold on, so he has to go back and find someone to replace him, as for the candidate, there seems to be no other possibility except Dennis.

However, Andrei, who was still in a little trance, didn't notice at all when he returned, and in the darkness not far away, there was a pair of eyes staring at him with a dead eye, and after he staggered and disappeared around the corner, that person had also disappeared......

On the morning of the same day, just as Andrei had predicted, the Czechoslovak troops launched only two tentative attacks, both of which were easily beaten back by the Soviet infantry, who were several times more mentally superior to them. However, Andre, who has always slept relatively lightly, was still woken up by the sound of battle, but it was only a matter of moments, and he fell asleep again after turning over, it seemed that he was really tired......

At noon, the team members finished their rest and got together for lunch. Andre was still visibly unresponsive, and when he stuffed things into his mouth, he was almost always mechanically repeated, and his eyes were blank. Although the atmosphere of the 217 team was not cold when they were eating, only a few people such as Natalia and Leonid could really talk to Andre at this time, but they all saw that Andre was not in a good state, so they didn't talk to him, and Andre just finished his lunch silently, because he was not in good spirits and had a poor appetite, of course he didn't eat much.

However, although Andre is not in good shape, the team's performance has not dropped at all, and someone will still be on top of what should be done. For example, Natalia is responsible for the overall dispatch of the team, Og is responsible for the consumption of ammunition and fuel, and Leonid and Boris are responsible for tank and personnel damage and other minor issues, respectively. In fact, these are the things they have been assigned a long time ago, but Andre has always done a good job in front of them, so they don't have to do it themselves in many cases, but now that Andre is not in good spirits, they will naturally return to their original positions.

In order to alleviate the pressure of continuous operations, and for the sake of safety, Andrei chose to stick to the plan. However, Andrei couldn't judge the details in his state, so he gave full authority to Natalia, the deputy captain, who ordered the team to set up several improvised ambush points around the position as hiding places, and did nothing other than that, just waiting for the enemy to break in.

The enemy didn't let Natalia wait in vain, and it didn't take long for a squad of infantry to come deep in the dense forest. It happened to collide with Natalia, who was also hiding in the woods, and there was no room for negotiation, and Natalia and they were chasing the infantry with non-stop machine gun fire.

At Boris's gunpoint, the only soldier in the enemy ranks with a radio device on his back was ruthlessly brought down after several shots, so that they were almost completely cut off from the rest of the world. After chasing for nearly two kilometers, Natalia finally completely defeated the team, and the remaining three or four people barely ran away under the cover of trees.

Since the ambush has been seen through by the enemy, there is no need to continue hiding in the jungle, it should be like this......

Contrary to conventional thinking, Natalia decided to simply place most of her tanks in the forest behind the position after her intentions were discovered, so that the enemy would inevitably waste time by searching for her tanks without seeing them, thus completely achieving their defensive purpose.

As a result, in the afternoon of the same day, the enemy did search for their tanks in the woods for half a day, but in the end they also found nothing, and returned empty-handed. However, Natalia and the others were not able to obtain this information, which is a bit of a pity, otherwise it would be a good choice to take advantage of this opportunity to counterattack once, or to mobilize the infantry to sweep here.

The next day, soon into the evening, was much easier than the first day of fighting. Because the enemy was already on alert on a large scale, it was impossible to carry out a sneak attack, and Andrei and the others had to spend it honestly. But this may really be a good thing for Andre, who is not in good form. After all, if he had a bad impact on an important battle for his own reasons, Andrei would have to blame himself for the rest of his life.

In order not to be lifeless on the third day, Andre chose to finish his meal early, without doing his daily exercise, and ran back to get into the bed and fell asleep...... (To be continued.) )
