Chapter 476: Divergence
Although both sides caused a lot of commotion because of this telegram, even so, Trode and the others still did not know anything about it. But if they knew that Paulus had used a clumsy joke to make the command on both sides restless, they would have dropped their jaws.
"The superiors called back, and they have learned about our situation." The communications soldier reported the telegram he had just sent back to Paulus, and Paulus also showed a rare smile and said, "Colonel, didn't you say that it was boring? ”
Although the Germans directly solved the matter because of Anselm himself, the Soviets were not so lucky. This 'C' haunted them like an eternal problem, and they even set their defense line on several levels, from which to choose the 'C' level, but in the end, they were surprised to find that under their definition, there were nearly twenty 'C' level areas, so this calculation method must not be reliable. In addition to this, they have also calculated the coordinates, the number of troops, strategic importance, and other points, but none of them are really reliable, but this is also a certain thing, because the meaning of this 'C' is only 'C'......
However, no matter what the problem was, it could not stop the industrious Soviet soldiers, and although they had no idea, they nevertheless worked out some temporary countermeasures. At present, the approximate location of the German infiltration troops has been exposed, judging from the information sent back by the various patrol squads, their strength does not seem to be as much as imagined, but from the perspective of the troops they have encountered, their combat effectiveness is extraordinary, if ordinary troops are sent to encircle and suppress, it is likely to be an egg to hit a stone. However, it is still late at night, and tomorrow there will be a major attack, and the troops must rest. It was impossible to send a large army to search for this German infiltration unit. At this point, it was impossible for them to take back the scattered patrols, but they decided to send only a small number of tank units to encircle and suppress them from now on, so as to reduce unnecessary casualties, and at the same time order the front-line troops to rest while guarding the enemy from the inside.
As for the reinforcements of the German army. They decided not to make any preparations for the time being until the Germans struck first, after all, it was a war of attrition, and the physical strength of the soldiers on both sides was of course a very important part of it, and they became more and more suspicious that this 'C' point was to allow the Soviets to mobilize their troops to fill a smoke bomb in the weak point of the defensive line, so that although it would complete their defensive line, they were still the attacking side after all, and it really didn't make much sense to do so. Instead, it will disrupt their subsequent deployments.
Ten minutes later......
Trood: They already clearly felt that the number of patrols around them had decreased, although many of them had become armored patrols, which were more difficult to deal with. However, the decline in the density of the enemy is the most joyful thing for them, because they have the equipment of the FG-1250 'Sparrowhawk', as long as the density of the Soviet army is not too large, they can easily avoid it, and this is also something that the Soviet army did not expect. They simply thought that it was impossible for the German troops to move freely through the jungle full of tanks, but this was not possible for the experienced Paulus. But it's a hand-to-hand thing.
"Slow down, don't fire without my orders!"
Troud knows. The latter sentence is almost only said to his squad, because the combat quality of the first squad is quite good, and he does not need to emphasize this aspect. Even so, Trode was a little upset, which he saw as a sign of distrust of him. After a while, however, Trode stopped thinking so......
"Three o'clock direction. Enemy attack! "This is the first time that Trode has reported on the enemy, and it's not about how good his eyes are. In fact, he did not even see the lights of the Soviet tanks, but the positioning was carried out by the machine gun shells and shells fired by the enemy.
"Keep the original route! Keep moving! Paulus simply repeated the previous order for Trode's report, and did not fight back as Trood had imagined. At the thought that he was being targeted by the enemy and unable to fight back, Trode finally couldn't help it, and he asked Paulus, "Why don't we fight back?" ”
"It was a tentative attack, and if we fired back, it would be exposed." Paulus did not change his calm and calm attitude because of Trode's tone, but explained it to Trode in a serious way. However, just after that, Paulus followed up and said, "Lieutenant Trode, please don't speak until this battle is over, it will disrupt the order of the squad." ”
"Uh-huh......!" Hearing Paulus say such things to himself word by word, Trode, as a man, must not be able to bear it, but as a soldier, he must endure it. At this time, infighting is not a thing that can be passed with a smile, even if it is for the sake of the overall situation, he must endure this resentment, but even so, Trode still has a word to ask-
"Then may I ask the Captain, why did you choose us to carry out this mission in the first place?" It was a crucial question, and the members of Team 217 applauded Trode's witty question. Because the result of this question is obvious, and to answer this question must Paulus acknowledge the strength of the 217 squad, so that even if the passive form cannot be reversed, it can be recovered to a certain extent, however......
"I heard about your previous hunt for Soviet armored guerrillas, this must be a mission that requires travel, and what I need is a squad that can follow me everywhere without getting lost, to carry equipment for our mission."
Although the previous statement was quite nice, and Paulus didn't say anything too ugly in the end, this sentence made the members of Team 217 feel very harsh, because it was clear that they were actually a high-level camel team, and Paulus did affirm their ability, but this was only in the transportation equipment. This is unacceptable for any combat squad, harsh, heart-piercing words.
"Calm down, later." Just as Trode was about to argue with Paulus again, Amphitri's voice came, and after her, Alicia followed to comfort Trode, although extremely uncomfortable, but Trode gritted his teeth and held back...... (To be continued.) )
