Chapter 9

"Battle alert! Battle alert

A series of rapid shouts woke me up from my sleep, and I turned over and sat up. See those women soldiers who also wake up from their sleep, put on their clothes in a hurry, jump on their shoes, then pick up their helmets from their pillows, button them on their heads, pick up their rifles and run out. I was lying down with my clothes. I quickly put on my helmet and shoes, followed them and rushed out.

The women soldiers ran out of the hut and quickly entered their respective gun positions. I ran to position one and saw them expertly lift the camouflage on the anti-aircraft machine guns and load the bullets. Jenna was sitting in her seat, shaking the handle and turning the machine gun, trying to lock the enemy plane in the air through the sight.

I stood there at a loss and didn't know how to direct them to fight. You know, although Rita used to be a squad leader, she always played the role of a shooter in the platoon. She never directed even one battle, so she didn't have the slightest command experience for me to learn from.

When I was still in the hospital, my Russian level, which was once comparable to that of my mother tongue, was greatly reduced in the process of gradual improvement of my injury, so that there were more and more obstacles in the communication with vera in the later stage. Many times, I couldn't understand what she said, and she couldn't understand the new terms such as TV, computer, Internet and so on. In order to prevent cheating, I subconsciously reduced the frequency of talking to outsiders, trying to make others think that I was originally a silent person.

After arriving at this highland last night, I took the Deputy platoon leader and several squad leaders to wander around the position for a long time. I didn't go back to the cabin to have a rest until midnight. The purpose is to avoid directly facing the dozens of female soldiers in the platoon. I'm afraid that if they pester me to ask questions and talk more, I may reveal myself.

After wandering around the position for several hours, the harvest is still quite big. I guess Karenina also thinks that I got to my present position by virtue of nepotism. She is afraid that I am not familiar with weapons. When we came to the anti-aircraft machine gun, she stroked the body of the gun and patiently explained to me: "this is a 14.5 mm quadruple anti-aircraft machine gun, which is composed of four 14.5 mm anti-aircraft machine guns. It is a combination of body, sight, gun rack and four wheel double axle car seat, Pull with a car. " Although I can't understand many of the terms she said, I guess what she explained according to the parts she explained“ The rate of fire is 600 shots per minute and the effective range is 2000 meters. Equipped with two cartridges, each cartridge is 150 rounds

"Position one is ready to fire." A sudden voice around me interrupted my train of thought. The Deputy platoon leader Karenina saw me standing next to the artillery position in a daze, thought I was scared and panicked, and took over my command position and gave orders to each artillery position.

It was a German reconnaissance plane that disturbed our sleep. It was hovering over the highlands. The muzzle of our anti-aircraft machine gun pointed straight into the sky. The female soldiers skillfully control the machine gun, with Karenina's command, the muzzle always follows the reconnaissance plane. As soon as the reconnaissance plane flapped its wings, it climbed to the height where the machine gun could not hit. It seemed that it was deliberately teasing us, and recklessly went round and round over the highlands.

"Shoot!" Karenina decisively gave the order to fire.

Jeanne stepped on the button of the gun and the bullets shot into the sky. The shells were flying, jumping and splashing to the ground.

"Position two, position three, correction lead, fire!" Seeing that the attack of No.1 artillery position did not work, Karenina issued a series of new instructions without hesitation.

The second and third gun positions not far away also fired dense bullets.

The reconnaissance plane in the sky shook its wings, pulled up its height and got out of the dangerous sky. But it didn't fly far, but continued to circle in a higher position.

Looking at this arrogant reconnaissance plane, I can't help getting angry. I went to Jeanne and patted her on the shoulder: "Jeanne, let me have a try."

Jenna's face showed a surprised expression, but she still moved her body away from the seat of the machine gun and let me sit in the seat of the manipulator. Although I have gradually lost Rita's original language ability, her military skills can still be used by me. I rotate the machine gun, the gun body with the enemy's movement and rotation. After operating the machine gun for a few turns, I can skillfully use this weapon that I have never used before.

"Comrade platoon leader, the ammunition has been loaded." Jenna, who was standing by, reported to me.

I nodded calmly and continued to try to lock the self righteous enemy plane through the sight. At this time, I suddenly feel a silence on the position, as if everyone seems to be looking forward to me.

"Knock it down." Karenina encouraged me.

I nodded calmly and focused on the enemy plane. The sight caught the enemy aircraft again and again, but because of the range, I never fired, and continued to track the target patiently.

"Height 1500." Karenina reports as she looks through her telescope“ Height 1500. " Jenna repeated it aloud.

"Height 1300!"“ Height 1300! "

I stepped on the button of the gun and stepped down slowly“ Height 1100! "“ Height 1100! " I clenched my lips and turned the gun patiently. The crosshairs on the sight caught the enemy plane“ Height 900! Shoot“ Shoot The enemy's targets are getting bigger and clearer“ I couldn't help yelling in Chinese. Then I stepped on the button of the gun, and a series of bullets burst out of the muzzle and shot at the enemy plane. As I kept stepping on the button, dense bullets shot into the air. After the tail of the enemy aircraft pulled out a long black smoke, turned a big bend in the air, and fled to the direction of the German position“ Yes, yes Jeanne was the first to jump up and shout wildly. Then there were screams and cheers from the women soldiers in the position. The first battle of anti-aircraft machine gun platoon in Nameless Highland ended with injuring an enemy plane.
