In the face of the reality that the Soviet army was defeated all the way, Andrei was also helpless, after all, the reality is here and now can only continue to fight and retreat, the time is July 10, and now the Soviet army is retreating step by step under the further attack of the German army, and Andrei originally led his men to break off and supervise the battle, but now it has become a battle to the death:

On the position of the sixth company, all the company platoon commanders have all been killed, and there are less than thirty people left in the whole company! If Andre hadn't decisively sent two groups of submachine gunners to help in the battle, that defensive area would have been broken through by the Germans long ago!

Now the Germans are pressing on again, and Andrei has no more submachine gunners in his hands to send! He refused to send riflemen to attack, because he knew that there was no chance of fighting bayonets, and he had no reason to let his brothers die in vain!

"Mortar! Put it on me! ”

Six mortarmen crouched, and three captured German 50-mm mortars were mounted on the ground. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The firing units were pre-adjusted, the gunners slipped shells through the muzzles one after the other, and the three mortars fired shells at a rapid pace.

It is worthy of experiencing the test of blood and fire! Three mortars fired a rapid burst of thirty rounds from each cannon in just one minute! That's twice as fast as the average gunner!

The three guns spilled nearly 100 shells in an instant, and black and red flames rose in front of the formation, and more than 90 shells exploded thousands of sharp fragments at once, forming a barrage like pouring rain in front of the formation, tearing the German troops rushing up to pieces, cutting the German snipers shooting behind into pieces, and blowing up the German light and heavy machine guns suppressed in the rear.

The firepower of the German offensive continued unabated, and the furious barrage of barrage kicked up puffs of smoke and dust, and the defenders braved a dense hail of bullets, fighting back stubbornly with machine guns, rifles, and grenades.

The mortarists went wild, and the three guns rained down on the Germans at a rate of 1.5 rounds per second.

The mortar with an excessively rapid rate of fire makes the barrel of the gun hot, and if you touch it, you will peel off a layer of skin.

It was at this moment that the artillerymen received an order from Andrei: "Quickly transfer positions!" ”

After receiving the order, the gunners did not think much about it, someone carried the hot barrel, the hot steel scorched the water-soaked towels, and the shoulders of the three gunners were blistered.

As soon as the gunners carried the mortars and shifted their positions, there was a terrifying hissing sound in the air, and the shells of the German army's retaliation flew all over the sky and landed on the mortar positions just now, and in an instant the entire position was plunged into a sea of fire, and dense columns of smoke rose in a circle, towering between the sky and the earth.

'Fortunately, Comrade Andrei's order was timely! Otherwise, the brothers will be left here! The platoon commander looked at the position that had been surrounded by fire, and the burned wound on his shoulder was not so painful.

It can be expected that this round of German attacks is even more frenzied, and they have already seen that the 6th Company is an excellent breakthrough, where all the light and heavy machine guns have been destroyed, and there are not many defenders left. The dense yellow crowd opened a skirmish line of twos and threes, and under the cover of several tanks, crushed the defenders' positions.

On Andrei's position, the remaining three heavy machine guns and all the light machine guns had been deployed to the side of the position of the sixth company, and the muzzle of the black hole was pointed at the approaching German troops.

and the remaining twenty-three submachine gunners squatted on the position of the sixth company, where there were still more than twenty remnants of the Soviet fighters of the original sixth company.

The German tanks ran over the fragments of guns and flesh all over the ground, and slowly advanced towards the defenders' positions with murderous spirit, the turrets turned back and forth, and the short-barreled 57mm guns spit out a ball of fire from time to time, and a cloud of smoke and dust fell on the defenders' positions. The front-mounted machine gun on the lower left side of the turret spat out an orange tongue of fire, and the turret turned, and the rear-mounted heavy machine gun in the back rained down a shower of bullets on the flanked positions of the Ninth Company.

The German heavy artillery and mortars were also firing extendedly, and the shells fell on the rear positions of the defenders one after another, and a continuous cloud of black smoke rose from the ground, and before the billowing smoke had dissipated, another row of shells fell, exploding a thick black and reddish flame.

The ravaged scorched earth was ploughed over and over again by steel and fire, and that's not even counting the blackened swarms of aircraft in the distant sky. Before the planes painted with the glaring black cross had reached the air above the defenders' positions, a rain of aviation machine-gun bullets and machine-gun shells were pouring down on the positions.

The screeching of bullets and the whistling of airplanes mingled, and everywhere the bullets rained, countless blood mist were mixed between the flying sand and rocks. Before the living defenders could hide, a row of small black dots suddenly appeared in the sky, and a sharp whistle fell on the defenders' positions.

The churning flames surged together like a volcanic eruption, and the rolling heat wave hit them head-on, making Andre, who was hiding in the anti-artillery hole, feel so depressed that they couldn't breathe.

Andrei's position in the Ninth Company was very good, and the defensive formations he personally deployed could withstand bombardment and shelling, while the positions of the surrounding brother companies were already full of flesh and blood.

German infantry and tanks were approaching, and their shelling and bombardment were aimed at the defenders' rear line positions, with the aim of cutting off the link between the defenders' front and rear armies, and finding and destroying the artillery and heavy weapons of the defenders' counterattack.

The reserves sent by the higher authorities braved the bombing and strafing of German planes and the overwhelming rain of artillery shells to rush to the precarious position of the Sixth Company. Along the way, many brothers fell under the German bombardment and strafing, and only 67 of the 120 men entered the position of the 6th Company.

Soldiers with weapons in their hands huddled in the trenches, listening to the roar of approaching chariots outside. Several daredevils with explosives strapped to their bodies had rushed to the trench ahead, waiting for the German tanks to run over them.

"Prepare to take the enemy!" Andrei roared.

After speaking, Andrei picked up the Mosin Nagant sniper rifle, and a figure carrying a machine gun appeared in the scope. Through the scope, a young face under the green helmet can be clearly seen.

It was clear that this was a young German soldier, who looked like he might not be even nineteen years old, but he was also an enemy! There is nothing to be merciful for the enemy!

The Germans, under the cover of combat vehicles, were already approaching the positions of the sixth company, mortars; Light and heavy machine-gun bullets, grenades and rifle bullets rained down on the burning defenders' positions, tearing the trenches to shreds.

The defenders braved the dense rain of bullets and threw grenades like flying locusts, and the swirling grenades fell in the crowd of charging devils, and the flames gushed out, and a group of devils fell.

The German soldier that André had locked on lay down and fired a series of accurate short bursts from the machine gun in his hand into the position of the sixth company, and the bullet instantly captured a brother who was firing from a rifle.

"Bah" The gun in Andrei's hand rang out, and the 7.62mm bullet directly cut through the German soldier's Tianling cover, the young and handsome face became hideous in the scope, the scarlet blood sword mixed with the brains of the white flower gushed out, the steel helmet and the fragments of the Tianling cover flew out together, and the corpse lay on the machine gun.

"Whoosh" several bullets whizzed over Andrei's head, who had retreated into the trench.

'Damn snipers! Eyeing me again! Andrei thought viciously, 'I'll get rid of a few more snipers!' ’

It was not only the snipers who were staring at Andrey, but also the riflemen and machine gunners who spotted this dangerous target, and the machine gun bullets swept over like a whirlwind, mixed with the sound of a grenade whizzing.

"!"

Before Andrei could curse, he leaped and turned to a bend in the trench.

"Smack" bullets flew over Andrei's head.

Based on the direction from which the grenade came, Andrei had already roughly judged the position of the German sharpshooter. After a brief pause with the devil's machine gun in a shuttle, Andrei suddenly peeked his rifle out of the trench.

The muzzle of the gun was pointed exactly at the head of a German soldier! The German soldier had only time to see a flash of fire, and a faint bullet mark had reached his head. The sharpshooter didn't even snort, and fell backwards like a stake.

At the same time, in the back and behind, a recruit named Alyosha, because of his good marksmanship, Andrei also gave him a sniper rifle

After getting this rifle, Alyosha was immediately stimulated as a sniper, he knew that this gun had a long range, so he retreated to the trenches in the rear line and sniped the devil from 500 meters away!

If it is simply compared to marksmanship, Alyosha is even more accurate than Andrei! Born in Orion, he can shoot his prey with an unrifled breech gun, not to mention that he now holds a sophisticated sniper rifle in his hand! There are only a hundred such guns in China!

His marksmanship allows him to hit a target the size of a copper coin at a distance of 200 meters with a rifle without scope, and now he has a sniper rifle in his hand!

"Bang" A gunshot rang out, and half of the face of a German sharpshooter was knocked off.

"Bang" another gunshot rang out, and an officer wielding a pistol fell like a stake.

"Bang" followed by a gunshot, and the steel helmet of a German machine gunner flew out, and his head was tilted on the hot MG34 machine gun.

Alyosha hid 500 meters away to snipe the devils, and one by one German machine gunners, sharpshooters, sergeants and officers fell to the ground one after another with the sound of gunfire. Because of his long distance, the German sharpshooters, sharpshooters and grenadiers were helpless against him for a while!

The only threat to Alyosha was the German artillery, but this man was also very clever, and when the German artillery attacked, he immediately changed the sniper position, and the German artillery fire was helpless against him for a while.

Looking at Alyosha's masterpiece, Andrei also thought to himself: 'Fortunately, this person is lucky enough to meet him, if he meets another officer, give him an ordinary rifle and go to the battlefield, maybe he will be killed by a German devil sniper just after killing two German devils!' Just such an outstanding talent will be obscurated and annihilated in the long river of history! ’

In contrast, Andrei is a later generation, and his strength lies not only in accurate marksmanship, but more importantly, in the judgment of the target position and the ability to protect himself. If Andrey and Alyosha were allowed to take a rifle and simply compare marksmanship, maybe Alyosha would still be above Andrey!

And just like that, Andrey inadvertently got one of the best snipers! He thought to himself, 'This boy! Promising! In the future, he must become a world-class sniper! ’

The position of the 9th Company was not much of a problem, but the position of the 6th Company was already in danger, and the roaring German tanks rushed close to the 6th Company's defensive line, and the slender muzzle of the gun was raised, and a 57-mm shell fell on the defender's position, and a ball of fireball was raised, and the unfortunate soldier had broken limbs and legs flying in all directions.

An unlucky tank had just crossed the first trench of the Sixth Company, and one of the daredevils hiding in the trench threw himself to the bottom of the tank and pulled the explosive bag without hesitation.

A burst of fire erupted from the bottom of the tank, the explosive pack's powerful impact piercing through the tank's fragile bottom armor, and the German tank was paralyzed in the trench, billowing smoke billowing from the inside of the tank.

A German armored car, which was following closely behind the tank, saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly reversed. When the fighters in the trenches saw that the armored vehicle was about to flee, several warriors poked their heads out, and a volley of anti-tank grenades slammed into the armored vehicle that was rapidly reversing.

The grenade landed around the armored vehicle, causing several clouds of thick black smoke, and the armored vehicle was immediately paralyzed in front of the battle like a dead turtle.

The bullets of German retaliation followed, and the warriors who threw the grenades were shot one after another and fell in the trench.

Another tank rushed up, and the German tank, having learned the lesson of the two tanks just now, did not try to rush through the trench, but stopped outside the ravine, firing wildly at the defenders' positions with 57mm guns and heavy machine guns. Waves of fire rolled over the defenders' positions, smoke and fire poured in all directions, and a mist of blood flew from the trenches.

One by one, the daredevils jumped up and pounced on the German tanks forty meters away.

The tank rotated its turret back and forth, alternating between the front-mounted heavy machine gun and the rear-mounted heavy machine gun on the turret to shoot a dense rain of metal, knocking the soldiers who tried to rush at it to pieces.

Under the cover of tanks, the German infantry, under the command of junior officers and sergeants wielding pistols, rushed into the position of the sixth company in a frenzy.

"Hit!" Andrei gave a calm order.

The three surviving heavy machine guns and eight light machine guns let out a crisp roar, and the "da-da-da" bullets gushed out like a wasp that exploded a nest, and the dark red bullet marks "swished" against the ground, and the row of German soldiers rushing in front fell to the ground one after another.

The 50 mortars in the rear were once again powerful, and the rapidly fired shells fell like hailstones, exploding in front of the formation with thick black and red flames, and sharp fragments ruthlessly harvested the lives of these German soldiers.

The tongues of fire that flew up and down were like whips of fire, beating the charging Germans into a bloody mist.

Mortar shells and grenades flew out, and the billowing black smoke of the explosion blocked the German army's field of vision.

Black and red flames enveloped the base of the tank on the ground, and the turret that flew up into the sky rolled several times in the air and then fell upside down on the ground, sending small fireballs flying in all directions.

A German sharpshooter picked up his rifle and pulled the trigger on a heavy machine gun that was spitting out flames in the smoke, and with a burst of gunfire, the heavy machine gun extinguished the flames. Another shot rang out, and the German sharpshooter spurted a bloody arrow from his head and planted himself on the ground.

The paused heavy machine gun spat out tongues of fire again, turning the oncoming corpse into a hornet's nest.

"Bang" another bullet flew in, knocking a German grenadier crouched and about to throw a grenade into the trench on the killing field where the corpses were stacked.

Alyosha, a new recruit, had long since lost the fear of the first battle, and the brothers fell in succession, arousing the anger of the young man, who pulled the bolt of his gun and pulled the trigger, and with every shot, a German soldier fell.

The fierce battle had been going on all day, and the afterglow of the setting sun was gradually receding from the earth, and the German planes raging in the sky were like birds returning to their nests, reluctantly leaving the sky above the defenders' positions and disappearing into the bloody sunset.

The sky was getting darker, but the surging firelight lit up the sky a blood-red color. From time to time, flares leaped into the air with dazzling light, and the earth suddenly became like day.

"It's night! We can't be beaten like this all the time! Gotta find a way to strike! ”
