The two tigers roared out of the village, and Otto immediately turned, facing the Russian convoy in formation, and Kosher turned his guns to the bridgehead.

Otto's body just blocked the weak point of Koschel's chariot, and Kosher helped Otto hide his ass.

Otto fired one after another at the enemy convoys, and soon all the Russian tanks lined up on the steppe turned into torches.

"Damn, I should have fired at the enemy too," Kosher was a little upset, he didn't use the radio, and said directly to Otto in a loud voice, "Didn't you take all the results of the battle now?" ”

"Nonsense, the chariots outside the village are the masterpieces of the guys on the highlands, and it has nothing to do with us." Otto said with a relaxed face, and then picked up the radio, "The company will enter the city, and the infantry will clean up the houses in the village." The logistics team counted the results of the battle, and His Excellency, the translator who knew Russian, asked to look for something like the Russian text. I need two tigers to go to the bridgehead to stand guard, two tigers to go to the bushes on the bank of the river, and I want to make sure that there are no blind spots. Oh yes, the sappers dragged out a few assault guns stuck in the mud so that our assault artillery battalion could be a little more combat-ready. ”

A few minutes later, German troops marched into the village, and the infantry quickly cleared the village - there were actually no Russian infantry, and the Russians seemed to have only tanks to advance here.

After pulling out the chariot crew that had been hiding all over the village, Otto dismounted his chariot, where he found several more scratches on it, apparently caused by enemy shells that had been fired off the road.

It seems that they were so engrossed in the battle just now that they didn't even notice that they had been shot, and of course, the thick armor of the Tiger made the impact of these ammunition seem to be gentle and drizzle.

Now Otto was anxious to see what was going on with the Russian tank that had ricocheted when he first entered the village.

In a few moments he came to the chariot, and two sappers who were inspecting it saluted him.

"What's going on with this guy? Our shells bounced off it, and it didn't seem to hurt it, but its members abandoned the car immediately......"

"Sir, its turret seat is stuck in something that your cannonball is flying," the sapper pointed to the seat of the Russian tank, "this thing we presumably is part of the toolbox that the Russians put on the side of the hull, and your cannonball broke the toolbox, and this thing flew out and stuck in the seat. ”

"I see." Otto frowned, "But they abandoned the car like that!" If it were me, I would have ordered the car to turn and aim! ”

"I guess I was stunned when I saw a tiger." The sapper shrugged, "The Russians do have good men, but most of the Russian soldiers don't feel that they have such a strong will to fight, and they are far from us." After all, you see, their leader is such an unreliable little girl, although it is quite strange for us to have a yellow-skinned leader, but Mr. Lin is really powerful. ”

The sapper licked his tongue, smiled at Otto, and continued: "My son admires Mr. Lin very much, and he wants two of them if he has a statue on his chest. Every day, like those young Scouts, I recite Mr. Lin's teachings in the morning and return my thoughts to him in the evening. ”

"How old is your son?"

"At the age of ten, in two years I will be able to join the Boy Scouts during the summer vacation."

"I can't see you're so old......"

"It must be because everyone is getting emaciated on the battlefield. Mr. Battalion Commander, you may not think that you are a combat hero, but I wish I could end this qiē as soon as possible and go home to accompany my wife and children. The sapper shook his head, "At first, I thought it would be safe to join the sapper, the most I could do was to dig the tunnel, put a cup on the wall of the tunnel and listen to the sound of the enemy digging the earth, I did this in the last war, I was only sixteen years old at that time, and there were no soldiers in the last half of the war, and I went to the battlefield with my sixty-year-old grandfather." I thought I had seen war, but now we have a war that is even more terrible. ”

Otto glanced at the veteran's battle medal.

"Mazovsher Minsk fought badly, right?"

"Yes, I was shot once, and I was able to get out of the line of fire, and I escaped the more terrible street fighting in Warsaw. In the last war, we called this kind of gunshot wound a lucky gunshot wound. ”

Otto smiled and turned to walk to the small open field next to him.

There were three Russian tanks parked that he had destroyed without starting, and several sappers who were not afraid of death were removing the toolboxes from the armor of the three vehicles, apparently intending to take them to the sappers' half-tracks as trophies.

"The Russians are actually manually starting their chariots with cranks."

"Judging from the style of the conning tower, these three are the old models that came to the aid at the beginning of last year, and the models assisted by the Americans have been replaced with conning towers since the middle of last year, so these are all classic cars that have been used for more than a year." The technical corporal with "a bean" on the collar badge said, "The Russians do not have the technology to maintain the on-board battery." Their batteries are either replaced with new ones or used all the time, and it's normal for them to suddenly not start. ”

"Sure enough, modern warfare is a guarantee." Otto folded his hands on his hips and sighed as he looked at the burning vehicle in front of him.

"Who's to say it's not, good security, adequate training, tactics to assess the situation and calm response, the way to victory." The technical corporal was quite slippery when he spoke, and Otto couldn't help but look at him more, and he realized that the corporal's armband was not from their unit, probably from the engineer team attached to the assault gun battalion.

At this time, the technical corporal suddenly said, "Hey, I think you're a little familiar, shouldn't you be...... Tiger King Otto? Carly Woods, right? ”

"yes."

"Oh! Oh my God, it's a real person! No wonder they can play such an amazing record! Great, two tanks wiped out more than two dozen tanks in the village! It's amazing! Please be sure to take a picture with me, I have a small camera on my half-track......"

The technical corporal showed a completely different attitude from the veteran just now, which made Otto feel a little emotional.

"It's okay to take a group photo, I can still sign it for you."

"Really?"

"Of course, boosting morale is also the task of the medal recipients."

"Thank you!"

As he spoke, an infantryman hurried up to Otto and saluted him.

"Report, the wreckage inventory has been completed, a total of 49 Russian combat vehicles have been destroyed, and there are no casualties in our army."

"Good, but have you confirmed all the wreckage?"

"What?"

The soldier's eyes widened.

Otto smiled: "You're a recruit, right?" The wreckage of the chariot should be confirmed one by one to prevent there are still living people inside, and it is normal for the chariot that looks broken on the battlefield to suddenly move, and many armored soldiers have died as a result, so this matter must not be sloppy. Didn't your battalion commander order to inspect every enemy wreckage? ”

"No, I'm going to pass on your opinion."

Before the young soldier could report, he turned around and the sound of machine-gun fire rang out in the village.

Otto frowned, and immediately ran towards the entrance of the village.

By the time we reached the entrance to the village, the gunfire had long since stopped, and Kosher was sitting on the turret, smoking a machine gun in his hand.

"What's going on?"

"I saw something moving next to the burning chariot over there, probably a member of the Russian chariot, so I shot and forced them to lie down, and the infantry went to check the situation."

Otto then noticed that there was indeed a squad of infantry scattered and surrounded the wreckage of a chariot lying on the easternmost side of the battlefield from all sides.

Suddenly, someone sat up from the ground and then raised his pistol and shot himself in the head.

The infantrymen ran and quickly reached the fallen body, and they dragged a guy who looked alive from the ground, and two men escorted him to this side, while the other four men pulled the man who had committed suicide on his shoulders and walked towards him as well.

Soon, the infantry came to Otto.

Otto looked at the survivors and knew that he had not long lived - his skin had been burned extensively, and the wounds were bleeding profusely, and the German medics generally gave morphine to the Russian prisoners in such cases.

So Otto turned his head to look at the dead man.

The man had several medals on his chest.

"Still a hero." Kosher's voice drilled into Otto's ears.

Otto crouched down and scrutinized the medals.

"I don't know anyone but the George Kant." He shook his head and said, "This ankh should be the highest grade, and the battle feats are not small, this person." ”

At this time, Otto noticed that the "medalist" had a clipboard hanging from his waist, so he took the clipboard down, turned it over, and found that it was a map and a line drawn with a pen.

"It looks like a map of the Russian army's offensive line." Otto raised his head, "Radio platoon, call the headquarters and tell them that we have captured the Russian offensive route map!" ”

As soon as Otto's words fell, the two tigers in the direction of the bridgehead opened fire.

He hurriedly stood up and looked in the direction of the bridgehead, only to see a large group of chariots coming along the road leading to the stone bridge.

"The enemy is coming! Get on the chariot and give them a head-on shot! Let the assault guns join us too! ”

At this time, the tiger in the bushes by the river also opened fire, and the road burst into flames.

Otto took the captured route map, quickly turned over his chariot, and after entering the conning tower, he picked up the telescope and observed in the direction of the enemy's attack, and saw that the Russian chariot unit was driving off the road and spreading to the left and right.

"The tiger at the head of the bridge is retreating along the road!" Otto decisively ordered, "The bushes continue to fire, and other vehicles scatter in the village!" Watch out for low walls and other clutter! Free Fire, Repeat, Free Fire! ”

A fierce fire ensued, but it lasted less than five minutes before the enemy released smoke and began to retreat, leaving behind more than thirty burning wreckage.

"Very well," Otto? Kali Woods radioed to his subordinates, "Very good, don't chase, we rely on the bank of the river to defend and wait for the second company from Dnepropetrovsk." At the same time, it was reported to the command that our department had ensured the security of the Malinovka bridgehead. ”
