Chapter 829: The Battle of the Four Watches (Part II)
Natalia pulled the bolt of the gun and shouted at Anton: "Anton boy, you go first, I'll follow immediately." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"No, you can't leave when I'm gone!" Anton flatly rejected Natalia's proposal, and it was clear to him that the two of them were indispensable in setting up firepower, and if one of them retreated first, the other would definitely be surrounded by the swarming German legions in the next instant.
"You kid really don't listen to persuasion!" Natalia gritted her teeth and said resentfully: "Then let's withdraw together, I'll count three two one, go backwards together, and then I say stop!" ”
"No problem!" Anton shouted, and then immediately changed the ammunition and waited for Natalia's slogan.
Natalia first glanced to make sure there were no Germans nearby, then threw a grenade and shouted to the side as it exploded: "Withdraw!" ”
"Where's three-two-one?!" Anton was not lightly pitted by Natalia this time, and the countdown was not at all good, some were just a retreat, if Anton hadn't noticed the grenade thrown by Natalia, this would definitely not have been able to keep up with Natalia's rhythm.
Taking advantage of the time attracted by the grenade explosion to attract the attention of the Germans, the two successfully retreated more than ten steps backwards, and then gunshots rang out again behind them, and Natalia shouted again: "Get down!" ”
Fortunately this time, Anton was not caught by Natalia, and followed Natalia to the ground at the same speed, and immediately found a firing position to return fire at the Germans in the distance, and at this time, many bullets were flying above their bodies. If this series of actions were a few seconds later, it was estimated that the two would be beaten into a hornet's nest.
"I'm loaded! Anton Kid cover up! Don't run out, we're going to keep withdrawing! ”
"Got it!"
The communication between the two was short and fast, and the cooperation was quite tacit. Coupled with the fact that this dark night gave them an excellent cover, the retreat of the two was still quite effective, and for a while, although the Germans had an absolute advantage in numbers, they had no way to take Natalia and Anton.
And at this moment, the reinforcements sent by Andrei first also arrived, and they had a total of ten troops. Seeing Natalia and Anton in danger, she was about to rush over to help, but they suddenly made Natalia anxious, and she shouted, "Lie down! Stay back! ”
But because the gunfire on both sides was so loud that the infantry couldn't hear what Natalia was saying, and some even misheard it as 'come here' or something like that. In this way, several people sped up and ran towards Natalia and them.
Unlike Natalia and Anton, who were lying on the ground and finding cover, these Soviet soldiers were completely exposed to the German guns, and although they were far away from being able to see the target too clearly, there were more bullets, and there was always one that could hit. When several people ran towards Natalia, they were immediately hit by the Germans, and the first two immediately fell, and the people on one side saw this scene and realized what was happening, and immediately lay on the ground, dodging the German shots.
"Don't come here! Just stay there! We're going to get out of there right now! It was only then that they heard what Natalia was saying, and stayed where they were, ready to cover Natalia's retreat. At this time, it is also thanks to such a thing as language, different languages as a barrier to communication between people, so that Natalia can not understand what the German soldiers on the opposite side can not understand what she is saying when she is so shouting. Otherwise, battlefield communication would be too strenuous. Although Natalia has experienced a hundred battles, she has never fought such a thing as a civil war, so her loud voice has been a problem for a long time.
With a teammate in charge of covering behind him, he has more confidence to retreat. But at the same time, the little trick that was used last time definitely can't be used again this time, but for a veteran oiler like Natalia, this little trick is the last thing missing. And at this time, she can also show her excellent mobility ability, this kind of coordination ability to command a small number of infantry, but it is much stronger than Andrei and Anton, two newcomers with excellent ability.
"If I could, I'd love a DP machine gun!" Natalia grumbled as she loaded her bullets. Although she uses bullet slots to reload five rounds at a time, which is much faster than many infantry reload one round at a time, the rifle is so fast that Natalia can't fire too fast in order to maintain the durability of the fire suppression.
This bullet card slot was carried by Natalia herself, and she usually kept it in the inside pocket of her clothes, so it didn't take up much space. Although it is not used very often, when it can be used, it is particularly effective, and it can quickly reduce the time it takes to reload the rifle.
Although this kind of bullet slot is not a rare commodity, due to the loss and not completely distributed with the rifle, in the real battle, many Soviet soldiers still rely entirely on manual reloading, this slow reloading in many cases, put them in a disadvantageous position.
But again, the German Karl 98k had the same problem, and the loud noise when loading made it easier for the soldiers who used it to expose their weak moments. As two rifles, the battle between Mosin-Nagant and Karl 98k continues, in the hands of these soldiers......
After a few rounds, although a lot of bullets were fired, due to the weather and terrain, the casualties on both sides were very limited. However, strategically, Natalia and the others were holding back the German army, so that if they continued, their plan to raid the bridge would be ruined, and in this way, Natalia and their victory would be ruined.
But things can't be happy so early, since there are German troops on this side, it is difficult to say whether there are also German troops on the other side. The difference between Natalia and Anton on this side is that there are talents who are good at command and mobilization, and on the other side there is only one Xia Bing and a relatively small number of troops, it is difficult to say whether they can withstand the impact of the German army. After all, while they were holding off the Germans, they had to take care of the Germans on the other side of the bridge, and they couldn't find any gaps to defuse the explosives. (To be continued.) )
