Chapter 554 - 554 Supplies

So don't question the progress of your opponent, and don't whimsically think that "your opponent won't learn so fast, will you?", it turns out that the performance of weapons is improved so quickly, and the learning and use of tactics is so fast!

In another time and space, the Germans were brutalized by Soviet snipers in the Battle of Stalingrad, leaving tens of thousands of elite soldiers in the city that had been bombed to ruins, and finally descended from the altar of undefeated. In just one year, thousands of German snipers taught the Americans a good lesson in Normandy, so that the arrogant American GIs learned to always bend over and bow their heads. Of course, the Americans were not idle, they set up a sniper school, and it took a few months for the snipers of the US Marine Corps to beat the Japanese devils on the islands of Saipan and Kuah.

This is war, and this is the war that makes people learn from their opponents and face them squarely. Those who don't study will either die or die, and those who stay are outright students, and they are the most shameless plagiarists.

Do you use inclined armor? Let's try it! If it works, let's use it too? Then we use it! You use a sniper squad? Let's try it too! The effect is obvious? Then we use it too! You use aircraft carriers for naval battles? Let's try it too! Isn't it good? Then let's build more aircraft carriers! The era of dominance for hundreds of years has passed, and it only takes a few months to catch up with our opponents in this era of great development!

Intelligence showed that the Soviets were training their own snipers, and they were selecting talents from the Siberian Orions, learning to organize sniper teams like the Germans, and beginning to clumsily use sniper tactics in the war.

Now it seems that they are still very backward, their tactics are not mature, and even many times their learning is stupid and blind, but all the Germans who faced the changes in the Soviet army felt the pressure given to them by the other side, and they all thoroughly experienced the subtle changes in the Soviet army.

The opponents are indeed a group of farmers who have not gone to school and the unemployed, and most of them even have problems with literacy. But the brutality of the war made these people who also wanted to live begin to work hard to end the experience of how to live. Failure after failure allows them to learn how to meet the next failure with dignity.

These Soviet peasants, who had no knowledge of fighting at all, learned to send scouts around the area where they were stationed because they were raided and killed by the Germans, learned to build their own fortifications when they stopped, and learned to sleep with guns without taking off their clothes. In addition to the military uniforms on their bodies and the steel helmets on top of their heads, they became more and more like the Germans opposite, at least in some details.

Of course, it turned out that they were still a cut short of the Germans, and the missing details were often the difference between victory and defeat: the Soviets' logistical supply was still chaotic and inefficient, their military uniforms were still a single green, and the Germans had begun to use camouflage smocks extensively. The Germans had already begun to infiltrate the battlefield with special forces squads, and the Soviets had only at this time learned to follow the Germans in forming sniper teams.

But don't laugh at this clumsy and stupid learning, it's a pious desire and a deep aspiration of the soul.

Don't laugh at their ignorance and limitations when the braided Chinese in Tianjin's General Bureau of Machinery Manufacturing used brush writing to record the method of imitating Krupp cannons and began the process of industrialization with rudimentary equipment.

When in the factories of New China, the masters used calloused hands to file out the parts one by one and piece together the first Chinese jet fighter, please do not laugh at their clumsiness and backwardness.

When the engineers of the aircraft manufacturing companies in the Northeast disassemble the advanced foreign fighters, find out the technology, and then imitate the production, and finally name them as domestic aircraft, please do not laugh at their shamelessness and despicability.

This is because, when a nation begins to lose face, does not care about shamelessness and despicability, is not afraid of clumsiness and backwardness, and even ignorance and limitations cannot stop it from learning from the footsteps of its opponents, what can stop this nation from becoming strong? When a nation only wants to survive regardless of a single thing, it can do everything possible to survive.

"The optical sight on the sniper rifle is very well-made, not like a Soviet product. The battalion commander looked at the Mosin Nagant modified sniper rifle that was very well maintained: "The gun oil is evenly applied, the sights are well adjusted, and you can see it clearly from a distance of 200 meters." ”

The sniper has also seen this gun, and he has a lot to say about his peers: "There is a record of this sniper, which shows that this sniper is literate and has a good gun, which means that he has been professionally trained and knows the importance of keeping a gun." This reflects the improvement of the Soviet snipers. ”

The battalion commander nodded, he also felt that the other party was getting more and more tricky. Two months ago, these Soviet soldiers would have attacked with two rounds of artillery before they began to charge in droves.

It seemed that the Germans were afraid that they would not be able to hear the sound of artillery and would not be able to prepare well, and they would shout the slogan "Ula". Keeping the formation more dense to prevent the German machine gunners from wasting their ammunition - such a considerate opponent was rare, and sometimes the Germans even thought that the opponent was fighting with them.

Now these Soviets no longer charge stupidly, and often do not prepare for artillery fire before the attack. Now even the sniper ambush has appeared, and it is simply getting smarter. Of course, the most intuitive reflection of the intelligence of the Soviets was that the casualties of German soldiers began to rise.

"Send these things to the regiment headquarters, and then let the regiment commander hand them over to the division headquarters and see what the people above say. Our opponents are closing the distance between us and that's not a good sign. The battalion commander thought of this and said as he nodded.

"So what do we do now? The opponent has a sniper team, and the second or even the third one comes. The deputy battalion commander asked with a frown, he was concerned about the casualties of ordinary grenadiers, after all, the war was not over, and his subordinates would continue to fight under the huge threat of "Soviet snipers".

The battalion commander did not speak, looking at the sniper, here he had the most right to speak. The sniper thought for a moment and said, "Stick to the wall as close as you can, bend down and move quickly, making sure you have cover in your place when you stop." Once you spot the opposing sniper, the best way to find a helper is to find a helper. ”

"If possible, use mortars or snipers to eliminate the opponent, and the method of infantry assault is not very advisable. Then he added, and then left the battalion headquarters with the captured rifle and notebook and other things.

"I hope the above countermeasures will come down sooner, otherwise we really won't have a good solution. The battalion commander looked at the back of the sniper and said to the deputy battalion commander beside him.

The deputy battalion commander nodded: "The infantry who have been sent out to patrol recently must pay attention to safety and try to arrange more experienced soldiers." If it really doesn't work, cancel the patrol and set up a guard post with scissor periscopes. ”

"Scissor periscopes? There is only one battalion headquarters in the east and west, and it is a trouble to apply to the division headquarters, after all, it is not one of our battalions waiting to use it. The battalion commander sighed and said, "Let's honestly wait for the news from above." ”

The deputy battalion commander pursed his lips, expressing helplessness, and then continued to work on the soldier casualty report he was just writing.

As soon as the battalion commander looked down at the map of the defense area, a soldier came in and reported that supplies had arrived. He immediately walked out of the house to sign for the supplies that had arrived here.

Not much stuff, only a small half a truck. The driver handed out a paper jiàn clip with a hard board and pointed to the car behind him: "4 bags of potatoes, 20 black breads, and 40 kilograms of vegetable leaves." This time the military train was not late, and you were lucky enough to replenish 50 more canned luncheon meats. Make up for the batch that was missing last time, and I still owe you 4 bags of potatoes, everything else!"

The soldiers carried down crates of munitions on it, including battalion 80 mm caliber mortar shells, as well as 13 mm heavy machine gun bullets,7. 92 mm machine gun chains, rifle bullets and grenades, rockets from Iron Fist bazookas, several damaged steel helmets from the last request, and several sets of military uniforms and armed belts and tactical vests. In short, there is a lot of mess, and it needs to be counted and counted afterwards and then distributed to various companies.

Hearing what the driver said, the battalion commander nodded, wrote his name on the receiving column, then stuffed the pen back into his jacket pocket and handed the text to the car driver: "Don't you come down and eat before leaving?"

"No, do any of you go back to the division? I'll take him back. The driver smiled, took the cigarette from the battalion commander, and asked casually.

The battalion commander pointed to the sniper squad that had not gone far, nodded and said: "They were going to the regiment headquarters, but you happened to be here, it is okay to take them to the division headquarters, and there are two wounded people, who will be sent back to the field hospital behind." Why is it that only half a truckload of supplies is loaded?

"What's the ...... It's all out of the truck, but there is an order from above to distribute some to local Ukrainian villagers along the way, so when you come to the front line, there is only half a car left. The driver lit a cigarette and said comfortably: "I've been holding it all the way, and I don't dare to light the arms in the back, but now it's enjoyable." ”

"Divide the Ukrainian peasants?" the battalion commander frowned, he had never received the full amount of supplies now, and as a result, those supplies were cheaper than the civilian people of the enemy behind?

"Don't guess, the staff officer of the division headquarters said that it was great wisdom, and it was definitely a decision that the advantages outweighed the disadvantages. The driver smiled and said: "If the guerrillas are active in the back, only God knows whether this half of the truckload of supplies can reach you!"

The battalion commander was stunned for a moment, smiled wryly, and stopped talking. R1148
