Chapter 1123

Thinking about the tank army, I had a flash in my head and asked Nekrasov in a hurry: "by the way, comrade Colonel, I forgot to ask you something. Is the 96th brigade of tanks deployed in the rear of your division formerly subordinate to the 15th army of tanks? "

Instead of answering my question, he turned to his chief of staff. The chief of staff of the division immediately understood and went forward to reply, "Comrade report commander, I asked the commander of the tank brigade. He said that their brigade was newly established in Kursk last month."

After listening to the chief of staff of the division, I knew in my heart that the tank brigade that originally belonged to rebarko would be completely destroyed in the Kiev defense war. However, their flag should be brought out by rebalko, so it can be reorganized.

Just when I was feeling the cruelty of the war in my heart, a tank brigade with outstanding achievements said no, there was a lot of gunfire outside.

"Except for what?" Without waiting for me to make any response, niekrasov asked the chief of staff of the division, "Why are there guns outside?"

After looking at each other, the chief of staff of the division shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, sir. I'm not sure. But listen to the gunfire, it should not be far from us. I'll call right away to ask what happened He picked up the phone on the desk.

"Comrade teachers, comrade teachers." Before the chief of staff of the division could get through the phone, a soldier with a helmet and a rifle broke in. As soon as he entered the door, he called out in a hurry: "there are Germans nearby. When they came to us, they were found by our sentry on duty, and there was a fierce exchange of fire."

"What kind of forces is the enemy?" I participated in the battle of Stalingrad, and naturally knew that it was a trivial matter for a small German unit to touch our headquarters at all levels and have an exchange of fire, so I asked with disapproval.

"There is probably a platoon of soldiers who are fighting with our soldiers outside, and their motorcycles are hidden under the hillside." "In addition to the infantry, a German tank was also found in the distance," the man said quickly

Nikolasov looked at the man in doubt and asked in a skeptical tone, "are you wrong, regarding our own tanks as German tanks?"

"Yes, sir." Seeing that nikolasov didn't believe what he said, he was so anxious that he almost cried out. He said with a cry: "I can see it very carefully. It's definitely German tanks, especially the white cross on the turret. I can see it clearly through the telescope."

When I saw Nekrasov staring at his eyes, he was about to get angry immediately. I stopped him immediately and reminded him cautiously: "Comrade Colonel, what the soldier said is true or false. We'll see with our own eyes."

As soon as my words came out, nikolasov, the chief of staff of the division and yershov were in my way. He also said nervously, "no, comrade commander, it's too dangerous outside. You have no right to take risks."

"Yes, comrade commander, the teacher is right." The chief of staff of the division immediately echoed: "you can stabilize the morale of the army and boost morale here. If anything happens, it will have a negative effect."

Although I think they are all kind-hearted tomorrow, I can't be at ease if I don't see the situation outside with my own eyes. So I waved to them and said firmly, "don't worry, comrade colonel. It's not the first time I've been on the battlefield. I'll pay attention to my safety. Besides, the Germans have only one platoon. With the security forces of your division headquarters, it should be no problem to wipe them out completely, right

"Comrade commander, due to the need for troops at the front, the security camp of the division headquarters has transferred a lot of manpower to the grass-roots units." The chief of staff of the division explained to me, "at present, there is only one company in charge of the security of the division. If the German army is only infantry, there will be no problem, but the German army still has a tank, which will be a little troublesome. "

"It's just a German tank. There's nothing to worry about." In order not to make them feel nervous, I deliberately put on a relaxed expression and said to them, "find two soldiers to carry a rocket launcher. The tank will ambush where it is going to pass, and it can be easily killed."

My words made the chief of staff of the division show an embarrassed expression on his face. He said to me with tears and laughter: "Comrade commander, you don't know. In order to strengthen the anti tank ability of the front line, we have equipped all the rocket launchers with the front line forces. There are no anti tank weapons in the guard company except a few anti tank grenades. "

As soon as yershov and the chief of staff of the division finished speaking, they immediately declared their position and said, "Comrade division commander, the situation is dangerous. I suggest that the commander be transferred to our regiment's headquarters immediately. It's safer there than here."

"Yes, that's a good idea." Upon hearing what his subordinates said, Nekrasov immediately agreed. He advised me: "the division's defense force is too weak. For the sake of safety, you'd better move to the yershov regiment first."

"Comrade Colonel, I won't go anywhere until I see the German troops attacking the headquarters destroyed." I was in a bad mood when I thought that the German troops who attacked here were probably members of the skull division, so I stubbornly said to Nekrasov, "Comrade Colonel, take me to have a look."

Seeing that I was stubborn, Nekrasov could not say anything more. He had to order yershov to go back to his regiment headquarters and make all preparations for the German attack. Finally, he said to me helplessly, "Comrade commander, since you want to see how we deal with the Germans, please come with me."

As I left the headquarters behind nikolasov, bukov, who was standing outside the door, immediately met me and asked in a low voice, "Comrade commander, it seems that the situation is very bad. The small German troops are exchanging fire with the security forces not far away."

"The infantry will be out of the question for the time being. The guard company of Colonel nikolasov will wipe them out." After I said these two words to bukov, it suddenly occurred to me that I could inform the 96th brigade of tanks to send out tanks to help us out. As long as they send out two new tanks, no matter how strong the German tank is, it is just a moving target. Thinking of this, I stopped and put half of my body back in the room. I rushed to the chief of staff of the division standing inside and said, "Comrade chief of staff, please call the commander of the tank brigade and ask them to send tanks to support us immediately."

Nekrasov took me to an observation post not far away. The soldier who came to report stood in front of the lookout, pointed to the outside and said, "commander, comrade division commander, please have a look. Here you can see the German tanks, which are about 500 meters away from us at the moment. "

I picked up my telescope and first looked at the battle going on on the hillside not far away. Seeing that the small German troops were suppressed by the firepower of the guard company on the hillside and difficult to reach the sky, I turned my attention to the tanks in the distance.

I saw a Tiger tank with square head and square brain driving slowly on the earth slope hundreds of meters away. From time to time, he stopped to bombard nearby suspicious targets or shoot them with machine guns. A lonely hut on the hillside became its target. I saw it stop, slowly rotating the turret, and then the body of a sudden shock, a shell will come out of the chamber. In an instant, the hit cabin was torn apart in the fire and smoke, and the broken boards flew everywhere. After destroying the hut, the Tiger Tank spewed a stream of black smoke from its tail, and then sped towards the position where the fighting was most intense.

When the tank was less than 200 meters away from us, there was a sudden conflict of mud on the right side of the tank. Seeing this scene, I knew that it was our artillery that was firing. I quickly turned around and looked for the artillery that started firing. After searching for a while, I found an anti tank gun position on the hillside in front of the left side of the observation post. Four or five artillery soldiers squatted beside the guns and were nervously preparing for firing.

"Comrade Colonel, look I pointed to the anti tank gun on the distant gun position and excitedly said to nikolasov, "there is an anti tank gun. With it, we can certainly kill the enemy's tanks." As soon as I spoke, I realized that something was wrong. The German Tiger tank is coming towards us. In the gun position on the hillside, there is only a very common 45mm anti tank gun. Can they fight against the German Tiger tank?

The answer soon came out. The anti tank gun soon fired for the second time. Fortunately, the shell hit the body of the Tiger tank. But when the smoke dispersed, I found that the German tanks were not affected at all, and they were still driving towards us quickly.

Seeing this situation, nikolasov could not help but scold: "hell, this German tank is too strong. It's so close to shooting that it hasn't been killed yet."

The hit German tank apparently found the gun position on the hillside. It stopped, turned its muzzle to the position of the anti tank gun, and fired directly. The tank shell hit the anti tank gun which fired twice in a row. After the earth shaking explosion, I saw a big crater there. Several artillery soldiers were lying on all sides of the pit, while the anti tank gun was overturned and the barrel was bent at a strange angle.

"We... Our anti tank guns, that's the end of it?" Although like me, niekrasov witnessed the destruction of anti tank gun positions by German tanks, he still said in an unbelievable tone: "we hit the enemy's tanks, the tanks are OK; And their tanks hit our guns, but their positions were destroyed? "

Looking at the approaching German tank, my heart went up to my throat. My heart said that if it rushed forward, I would have to turn around and run away. The human flesh and blood could not stop the German steel monster.

150 meters, 100 meters, 80 meters. My heart has been quietly calculating the fierce tank, how far away from me. I have even made a plan. As long as the tank is within 50 meters, I will turn around and run regardless of the situation. On the battlefield, courage is necessary. But in the face of the German tanks coming up, still standing there, it is not brave but stupid.

Just as I started the countdown, the Tiger Tank left and right again lifted up two waves of earth. Seeing this, I was very surprised. My heart said what's going on. Is there any anti tank gun position hidden in other places? But when I turned to look at him, I was surprised to find that his face was also blank.

Before I knew what was going on, a bright fire suddenly rose on the body of the invincible Tiger tank, and then the whole sound of the car would be covered with black smoke. A moment later, I heard the roar of the tank motor. Looking in the direction of the sound, I saw four or five new tanks of our army, lining up, coming rapidly from the right side of the highland. While they were on the March, they kept firing at the German infantry hidden on the hillside. The German officers and men who were in a stalemate with our army immediately became confused. Seeing the appearance of these tanks, Nekrasov breathed a long breath, then put down his telescope and said to me with relief, "Comrade commander, thank goodness, it's the tank of the 96th brigade." The timely appearance of our tanks declared the complete end of the German sneak attack plan. When the German infantry found that their tanks had been destroyed, they laid down their weapons and raised their hands to surrender. Seeing that the German prisoners holding their hands high were escorted into the trench by our commanders and fighters, nikolasov could not help but Snort and said in a disdainful tone: "I thought the German officers and soldiers of the skull division were so tenacious. I didn't expect that they were still a pussy. When they couldn't beat us, they immediately raised their hands and surrendered."“ Comrade colonel When I heard him say this, I was a little sad and said, "if the commanders and fighters of the tank brigade didn't come here in time, the destroyed Tiger tank would be enough to raze your division headquarters to the ground." I raised my hand and looked at my watch. Seeing that the time had already pointed to nine o'clock, I said to Nekrasov, "well, comrade Colonel, it's getting late. While it's still not dark, I'll go back to the headquarters of the group army immediately."“ Shall I send an escort, comrade commander? " When I heard that I was going back to the headquarters of the group army, nikolasov's face showed a relieved expression. He asked me in a flattering way: "you know, it's dozens of kilometers away from the headquarters. It's very unsafe to meet a small German army on the road."“ No, comrade colonel Considering that if we are not lucky enough to encounter the enemy on the road, the people sent by Nekrasov will not help but may expose the target, so I directly rejected his good intentions: "we only have one car, and the target is not big. Even if the enemy finds us, we can get away quickly."
