Chapter 137: Dusk

The Lithuanian soldier quietly rushed towards a house in the center of the town, and as soon as he pried open the door, the Soviet machine gunners inside opened fire, and the two Lithuanian soldiers immediately fell to the door. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Machine gun!" A Lithuanian soldier shouted.

An officer pointed to a nearby window, and two soldiers crept over and were about to pry open the window, when two rifle barrels protruded from it, knocking them to the ground.

"Fack!" The Lithuanian officer cursed and walked to the window against the wall to avoid being detected by the enemy inside. Pull down the tab of a grenade, count for two seconds, and throw it through the pried opening.

The Soviet soldier pointed his rifle out of the window, and suddenly something rushed into the open gap.

There was a bang, and the grenade exploded before it could fully hit the ground, and the soldiers in the room immediately passed out under the dual effect of the bomb fragments and the shock wave.

"Up!" The officer shouted in a low voice.

A soldier with a submachine gun jumped in first through the window.

"The enemy is in!"

"Where? Where is the enemy? The Soviet soldier shouted in a bit of confusion.

The Lithuanian soldier walked out of the room and saw a Soviet soldier holding a light machine gun and preparing to turn around, next to him a soldier holding a box with a cloth bullet chain. The brave won the narrow road, and the submachine guns in the hands of the Lithuanian soldiers quickly strafed, and the two Soviet soldiers immediately fell to the ground.

Most of the light machine guns at the time of World War I weighed more than 10 kilograms, most of the modern light machine guns were about 7 kilograms, and the MG-08/15 general-purpose machine gun captured by Soviet soldiers reached 14.1 kilograms.

Taking advantage of the slow movement of the machine guns prepared by the Soviets, the Lithuanian soldiers attacked flexibly, combining inside and outside, and finally opened a house that the Soviet soldiers were holding onto. As soon as the Lithuanian soldiers found a gap in the building, they burst into the room through this opening, and the power of the light and heavy machine guns of the Soviet soldiers aimed at the outside of the house was greatly reduced.

In the movie, the main character is holding a machine gun and strafing back and forth, and more machine gunners are hit by the dense bullets of the submachine gun before they can change positions.

The Soviet army put up desperate resistance, but under the steady advance of the Lithuanian army, bloody street battles were fought between the two sides, and every important house was covered with the corpses of soldiers on both sides.

In the street fighting, the machine-gun fire of the Soviet army was greatly limited, and the two sides engaged in a brutal and brutal war of attrition. Almost every minute, a soldier on both sides is about to fall.

"Sir, the center of the town is going to be undefended, and the enemy is attacking step by step, and he won't eat any strategy!" An officer came to report.

"Immediately move to the dock area, where the warehouses are very strong and there is a lot of military supplies stockpiled, and we can rely on them until the night." Ivan immediately rolled up the map and said.

As the Soviet troops gradually withdrew from the center of the town, the Lithuanian army began to surround the dock area in a semicircle.

However, the resistance of the Soviet troops became more stubborn.

A squad of Lithuanian soldiers had just captured a house near the pier when suddenly there was a loud bang and the whole house collapsed.

The Lithuanian officer watched angrily as one of his troops was all buried in the rubble.

"Sir, the enemy planted explosives in the room, and as soon as our troops were about to occupy the house, their men ignited the explosives." The officer reported to General Zukauskas.

"What do you think?"

"Sir, if we control the number of people in each attack, we can reduce the losses, slow down the attack, and there will be enough time to defuse the bombs. The enemy is already a turtle in an urn, and if we press too hard, it will increase the losses of our army. Now these soldiers are the support of our country, and we have lost nearly 2,000 people here, and we really can't afford to lose more. Now that we sacrifice one less person, we will retain more of the vitality of the country. ”

"After slowing down the attack, when will we be able to recapture the dock warehouse?" General Zukauskas asked.

"We will be able to retake the warehouse by noon tomorrow at the latest!" The Lithuanian officer said categorically.

"Okay, you go and deliver the order!" General Zukauskas said.

"Yes, sir."

It was getting dark, and the Lithuanian troops had already attacked the dock area, just a ten-meter-wide street away from the warehouses occupied by Soviet soldiers. The entire Soviet army had been reduced to the northwest corner of the town.

Koval and a few of his officers hid in the woods outside the town, quietly observing the battle.

"Battalion commander, oh, regimental commander, the Soviet army is dying, the Lithuanians are already approaching the center of the town. The Soviet army will not survive tomorrow! Kanas said.

"We'll do it tonight! This material must not fall into the hands of the Lithuanians. Koval said firmly.

"The Soviets were so well fortified that they planted explosives on the facades of their houses, and I thought they were crazy! If we do it, it's very difficult! Kanas said.

"Most of their defenses were set up against Lithuanian troops, and the defenses to the east were very weak. The night can cover our movements, and we will leave everything else alone, and use the night to sneak near the warehouse and take it down in one fell swoop. Let's start at a little tonight, and I'll personally lead the team, and we must take this warehouse. Koval said unquestioningly.

"Commander, although we now have two thousand, the Lithuanians and Germans together have seven thousand, and we are no match for them." Locke said with some concern.

"Didn't you realize that it was only the Lithuanians who fought today?" Koval smiled and said: "The Germans are not of the same mind as the Lithuanians. And I don't think they will rush to fight us, we are part of the Entente.

It's dark, the fighting has stopped, and we're going back to get ready. ”
