Elwin's troops worked all night to finally set up a series of devices such as mine chimneys on both sides of the road, while his chariots were scattered into the strip of groves around the village, with foxholes dug in the fields in front of the groves.

At the same time, the village has also made corresponding preparations, the fire caused by last night's accidental attack has been extinguished, and one-third of the infantry regiment last night was deployed in the village, ready to use buildings to ambush the Russian soldiers who rashly entered the village.

The artillery company, assigned to the infantry regiment, was transferred to a cornfield at the rear of the village, the officers of the artillery company were ordered to survey the firing parameters of the artillery in advance, and in the small house at the head of the village, Erwin ordered a small artillery observation post to be set up.

Erwin set up his own makeshift command post on a small hill next to the village.

"When the enemy moves to a kilometer away from us, we will open fire and shoot to stop us." Pointing to the pencil map of the terrain on the table, Alwin said to a few young men who had been selected to serve as the leaders of several tank detachments, "What is your shooting performance at a moving target at this distance?" ”

"I think it can reach 40 percent, and if the opponent is not moving fast, it should be 60 percent." A temporary team leader said with some unconfidence, "Almost all of the remaining crews are usually not so top-notch, and the powerful crews have changed cars and continued to move forward." ”

"Have faith in yourself, kid." Erwin completely took the pretense of being an instructor at the infantry school, "Besides, I'm not going to ask you to play at a high level, forty percent hitting, as long as you do it." Our squad of four cars is aimed at the same target, you know, to ensure that the first round of fire will have a shell hit the targeted Russian bitch, just one shot, can you do it? ”

"Yes, I think so." The temporary squad leader, who had just spoken, replied, and his expression looked much better at this time.

Erwin continued to point to the rough map and said, "Each of your detachments should survey a route for retreat, and while in the woods, point the head of the tank in the direction of the retreat, and meet the enemy. Because the Russian warriors like to use large-caliber artillery, the front and butt are similar to meet the enemy, the key is not to be hit. ”

Alwyn paused: "When you choose a retreat route, try to choose a route that can move forward at full speed, don't think about finding something to cover your body, the woods we occupy now will become a natural shield, you must stop after exiting a certain distance, wait for the Russian warriors to cross the forest line, and conduct a round of shooting at the moment they pass through, and then release the smoke." Before the Russians pass through the smoke, you should reach the second forest line. ”

Alwyn paused, looking back and forth at the warriors who had been temporarily under his command.

"It's all very simple," he continued, "and we just shoot, shoot, start the chariot and run wild, stop and shoot, the whole process is not difficult, all that's left is to pray that the Russians don't do so well." Luckily we were up against the Russians, whose 122 and 107 guns didn't hit well and reloaded slowly, and if you were hit by an energy weapon, you would be transported to heaven in an instant without any pain. ”

As soon as Erwin stopped, the entire hill was silent, and everyone was silent, their expressions serious and heavy—so the regular troops were pretty much the same before they fought against hime.

Erwin's men stared at each other for a moment before continuing: "Think about those infantry brothers, at least you are still in the chariot, protected by steel and engines, and the infantry brothers are hiding in those damn foxholes in the fields in front of you, they must use their flesh against the armor of the battle queen, they may be trampled and torn in half with their bare hands, even if they are lucky enough to survive, they will have to face the enemy infantry, they have nowhere to escape. And we, as long as we survive, can drive the chariot all the way back to a safe area, and the enemy's battle queen can't cross the country at high speed for a long time. ”

Erwin's words finally made the expressions of the temporary detachment leaders a little better, and he emphasized again: "Don't always look low, at least not in front of the infantry!" Cheer up! You're the German army! Those Russians were defeated by our men in the last war, and they were several times our number of troops, and they were still defeated and retreated! Okay, you, get up and sing the military song. ”

Alwin casually pointed at him, and the pointed detachment leader replied in a loud voice, and then he started his head.

He played the "Song of the Armored Soldiers" plagiarized by Lin Youde, and stomped on the ground with his leather boots while singing. The other squad leaders glanced at each other, followed suit, stomped on the ground with their feet, and sang loudly.

- Only the loyal chariot can provide us with a grave of steel!

Erwin watched his subordinates' chorus with satisfaction.

At this time, the communications corps ran to Erwin's side and reported loudly: "The air force will provide us with support, and their fighters are taking off." ”

"Very good, reply to them, we are very grateful for their help, but please remember not to drop the bomb on their own heads."

"Yes!"

As soon as the signal soldier left, the signal soldier guarding next to the walkie-talkie shouted: "Go out of the reconnaissance post and find the enemy marching column, which is driving along the road to this side, and they have seen more than 30 battle girls with magic guide armor!" ”

The Messenger paused, and immediately corrected, "They said they saw more than fifty magical armors. ”

As soon as I heard this number, the faces of many temporary detachment leaders turned green.

Erwin shouted, "Gentlemen! You hear, the enemy is coming! Get back on your chariot now! We act according to the plan! ”

As Erwin's words fell, the squad leaders sprang into action and ran to their chariots.

When they're all gone, Erwin? Eugen walked to the nearest chariot, and he stood under the cart and pointed to the commander: "You, get down." ”

The commander immediately got down and looked at Erwin with a puzzled expression.

The commander of the repair team, who was born in an infantry school, did not explain, but jumped into the chariot with ease, got into the turret, picked up a large earphone and put it on his head, and then said into the microphone: "This is Erwin, I am in car No. 214, and car No. 214 is my command car." All listen to my unified orders! ”

At this time, several infantrymen appeared on the hill.

"Colonel Eugen, our regimental commander asked us to ask what happened!"

"Tell him the enemy is coming, and we'll do what we do."

After saying that, Erwin patted the turret top armor of the car he had chosen at random, and urged, "Start the car, quickly." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the engine of the chariot roared, and a large puff of smoke came out of the exhaust pipe on the side.

At this time, on the eastern horizon, you can already see the newly emerging morning sun, and the sky above is cloudless.

This visibility, which is neither too bright nor obstructive to aiming, is a good time to attack.

**

Natasha yawned heavily, she had choked on exhaustion since she had been out yesterday.

"I really don't understand, why don't you change our flying armor for this kind of bullshit mission?" Instead of using the magic teleporter, she spoke through the open armor to her best friend, who was also open to the armor.

"Because the flying armor is very precious, the use of it must be approved by the god who oversees the battle, and we are the only ones who can be called upon by the headquarters at will. We can only go step by step to the place where we may be broken by the enemy, and if we find that there is no problem, but the radio is broken, we will walk back step by step. ”

Her best friend Misha disagreed, saying that Misha's father was a reformer, and it was said that he had participated in the reformists' assassination of the prime minister in 1910. Because of this family background, Misha always speaks with the tone of those reformist newspapers attacking the country's politics - of course, before Iron Ji came to power.

For this reason, Natasha has reminded Misha many times, now it is not like the past, the battle queen can be treated leniently to a certain extent, and the iron queen never asks about the identity when she kills dissidents, and she is very neat.

"Misha," Natasha said to her best friend, confirming that Captain Sharapova, the captain, was not paying attention to this side, "the enemy does have an operation, and we will not at least make a trip in vain." I heard that the Air Force has already fought with them. ”

"Oh? Did they throw bricks at each other in the sky with the Germans? How many Germans have been punched out of the top of their heads? Misha's tone was still so cynical, "You know, Natasha, I had an appointment with the handsome little guy of the logistics detachment last night, and he promised to get me the caviar for Mistress Shenji, you know, caviar!" Now it's all in vain. ”

"Misha, you're ...... again"

"Come on, Natasha," Misha interrupted Natasha, and she manipulated her magic armor to turn around, aiming her open breastplate at Natasha, and grimacing at Natasha from the opening, "You know that we beat those hapless infantry like chopping melons and vegetables, but you never thought that the gods and goddesses beat us to chop melons and vegetables?" And, you know, there was an unlucky girl in another detachment who was killed by a bomb dropped by the mosquitoes of the Germans. This war is getting more and more unfriendly to us, and we have to have fun in time, you know? ”

"Misha, even in the last war, the casualty rate of the Senhime troops was lower than that of the average army."

"Yes, but most of the survivors took a long time to recover after the war, and then they found that they couldn't do anything, and the country didn't support you wastes who couldn't go to war anymore, so they ......"

The sound of explosions in front of the column interrupted Misha's words, and Natasha saw a magic armor being lifted into the air two or three meters high by the powerful force of the explosion.

"Oh, my God." She said.

The next moment, Natasha watched as Misha's armor in front of her was shot. Her dynamic vision was better than that of the other battle girls, so she could clearly see that the cannonball hit the left side of Misha's armor the moment Misha activated the defensive rune on the surface of the magic armor. She saw Misha's expression contorted, but she still stubbornly maintained her standing posture in the magic armor.

But the other two shells hit Misha's body in the first one, and she could no longer maintain her balance, and the body fell in Natasha's direction.

Natasha reached out, and Misha's body fell to her knees.

"Leave me alone!" Misha yelled, "I'm still ...... I'm fine, the blood in my mouth is biting my tongue! Get moving, Natasha! Their guns are accurate, damn it! ”

Natasha nodded, and as soon as she closed the chest shield of her magic armor, the second round of shelling came-

Seeing the flash of light in the distance, Natasha jumped to the side, causing the cannonball that should have hit her only to hit her shoulder armor.

With a remarkable reaction, Natasha was shot in the shoulder armor and cut off the connection with the protective runes of the shoulder armor, so the cannonball shattered the outer cover of the shoulder armor, exposing the rotation mechanism to the air.

Despite the timely cut, Natasha's spirit still felt the pressure, which, along with the fatigue of the long march, made Natasha uncomfortable.

Still, she moved, drawing the weapon behind her back and aiming it in the direction the cannonball was fired.
