Chapter 870

Two German soldiers lay quietly in the ruins, and one pointed the muzzle of mg42 machine gun to the end of the street. The assistant shooter hid the chain in his palm, staring at the street in the distance.

At their feet, there is also a spare ammunition box, inside which is a whole box of coiled ammunition chains, which can ensure that they can shoot crazily here without considering the problem of ammunition. As long as the other side rushes out from the direction they want to shoot, they will be hit by a storm.

Both of them are wearing grey green uniforms, which is the standard German spring and autumn uniform. Because they are crawling in the ruins of the city, their bodies are covered with dust, so at this moment, they seem to be integrated with the surrounding environment.

One of the two German soldiers had a helmet with a grid on his head, while the other had only a White army badge on one side. The auxiliary shooter was carrying a Mauser 98K rifle behind him. The tactical vests on the two men showed that they were the backbone of the army and the orthodox German infantry.

Around them, there were several soldiers in German uniforms, but without bulletproof vests and other equipment. They were obviously Ukrainians and Belarusians, with grenades hanging in their pockets and waist. They gathered in a crater to observe the movement in all directions.

The infantry in the crater are responsible for covering the German machine gun position on the commanding height of the ruins. As long as the machine gun position is in place, they can easily repel the Soviet soldiers who attack from the front. When they capture here, they spend a lot of effort, until the crater under their feet is hit by a shell, they attack the ruins.

"I feel like someone's coming." The Deputy shooter, looking at the street ahead, said to the shooters around him: "the Soviets will never give up so easily. They will fight back here and try to drive us out."

"You're right, because I've seen them coming." The shooter of the machine gun pulled the barrel of the gun with his hand, and the bullet was loaded with a click. His eyes were connected to the sight on the machine gun, and then he naturally pressed the sight on a Soviet who had just rushed out of the corner.

He didn't fire, but calmly pressed his finger on the trigger and his cheek on the cold machine gun. The cool feeling was transmitted to every corner of his body and made his whole body concentrate.

There is no reason to easily expose the position of a machine gun position, especially such a machine gun position with wide vision and ideal position. What they have to do is to show the power of mg42 machine gun to destroy the sky and the earth when the number of Soviet people reaches a certain level.

The second Soviet soldier rushed out of the corner, but he was hit in the chest by a bullet from a German rifle, and the whole man fell back. It was obvious that the German infantry in the crater beside the ruins also showed their enemies, and they were shooting desperately.

There are not many automatic weapons in the hands of these German troops. Compared with the elite German troops, they hardly have mp-44 assault rifles, even G43. Most of the cannon fodder from Ukraine and Belarus is only equipped with Maohe 98K rifle, and the performance of this kind of rifle is not much worse than that of mosinagan.

The sound of heavy gunfire started, and a Soviet machine gun team started to fire at the German position at the corner. They aimed at the German troops near the crater and fired heavy bullets there. A cloud of smoke rose near the crater, and the German recruits there were too scared to show up and fire again.

When the Soviet army had the firepower cover, the natural action became more bold. They bent forward and ran forward, hoping to quickly pull in the distance between the two sides. On the other side of the street where the German troops were stationed, a window suddenly burst out a dazzling flame. It was obvious that the German troops stationed in the crater were not the only ones nearby.

The German G43 rifle on the other side of the window made a crisp sound every time it opened fire. It sounded very different from the sound of Mauser rifle. In addition to the fragmentary sound of Mauser rifle, the Soviet offensive was suppressed again. The bodies of more than a dozen Soviet soldiers were lying on the street. For a moment, everyone was trying to shoot each other and kill each other's gunners.

Because of the angle problem, the Soviet machine gun on the corner of the street could not shoot at the German soldier stationed in the window on the same side of the street. So the Soviet casualties were very huge, and they could not break through the streets blocked by the German cross fire for a while.

"Suddenly! Suddenly! Suddenly, suddenly The German machine gun position above the ruins finally opened fire after the Soviet army put in a lot of troops. The machine gunner had already pointed the muzzle of the machine gun at the Soviet machine gun group over there. He was just waiting quietly, waiting for his chance to join the battle. Now the opportunity came, he did not hesitate to pull the trigger of his fingers.

The unique saw like roar of the German machine gun made the tracer bomb expose the position of the machine gun, at the same time, it also solved the problem of shooting deviation correction for the machine gun. With a few bullets, the German machine gun hit the Soviet machine gun team, and they were surrounded by white dust and smoke.

It's the broken stones and other things that burst out on the surrounding road after the bullet passed through the human body, accompanied by the splashing blood and the scream of the Soviet people, which made up a very gorgeous picture. In the picture, the Soviet soldiers are full of Mars and twisted faces.

With the familiar and frightening sound of tearing linen, the German machine gun bullets pressed on the Soviet positions, and the Soviet soldiers were hit everywhere, and the bodies were overturned everywhere. The machine gun group of the Soviet army was beaten into a sieve in an instant, and even the machine gun was riddled with bullets. The Soviet infantry, who had been suppressed by German firepower on one side of the street, saw a German machine gun position hidden at the top of the ruins opposite them suddenly open fire. They watched in horror as the tracer missiles flew to the machine gun position that covered them, and then turned it into a bloody hell. These Soviet soldiers already knew that they had failed this attack. For them, the problem now became how to retreat safely, and no one knew whether they could be lucky to return to the corner. Generally speaking, when there are jackals in front and tigers and leopards behind, people need to rely on intuition to deal with them. Because in this case, there is often no time to carefully analyze and plan, can only rely on temporary instant reaction. The Soviet troops who were suppressed in front of the German position also made their choice at this moment. These people immediately turned their direction and ran to the place where they left. Charging is also death, retreating is also death. For these Soviet troops, their fate is no longer in their own hands. They need to rely on their only luck and the pity of the enemy and their own people. The German army would not have pity. They shot frantically at the defeated Soviet infantry, as if to vent the pain of being suppressed to suffocation just now. The bullet hit the back of the retreating Soviet troops and knocked them down like wheat. Unfortunately, it is obvious that the Soviet army did not show sympathy to its comrades today. Instead of covering the retreating soldiers, they allowed the German army to keep killing their comrades. Many Soviet political workers suggested that the retreating soldiers should be shot, which was eventually rejected by rokosovsky. But he could not prevent his subordinates from executing the retreating soldiers in disguised form, such as not covering the retreating troops like today. This led to the Soviet Army's high loss on the edge of the city on the second day of the formal start of street fighting in Stalingrad. There was a relatively wide shooting environment, where the German firepower could be played to the extreme. The Soviet casualties were so terrible that nearly 10000 people were killed in one day. On the one hand, it was the Soviet Army's artificial obstruction to the retreat, on the other hand, it was the Soviet Army's insistence on counterattack and repeatedly fighting for positions with the German army. Stalingrad is only that big in all. If we blindly retreat, the area of this city will not be enough to last for half a year. In short, for some reasons, the Soviet army launched a crazy counterattack against the German army after it got three divisions of reserve troops to enter Stalingrad. Although most of the counterattacks were repulsed by the German army, some of the Soviet army did repulse the attacking German army, and once pushed the battlefield to the suburbs of Stalingrad. On that day, the German army lost two blocks of control, and almost lost part of the city to the Soviet army. After a total of 50000 people were killed, the positions under their control are almost the same as two days ago. The senior German generals who had experienced the first World War, looking at the data in front of them, all came up with the damned place of Verdun in their minds. There, the German and French troops had killed 700000 people in battle positions, but none of them was able to move forward. Because of such heavy casualties, the battle was called Verdun meat grinder by historians. Now they seem to see the scene of that year again, which is the pain that the whole German 6 army is unwilling to recall. Now this kind of thing appears again. For the first time since the beginning of the war, the German army has lost 10000 people in battle, but it has not been able to move forward. However, even if the loss was so huge, the German army still did not change the attack plan they made a month ago. On the last day of March, the German army and the counterattacking Soviet army launched a confrontation, and the battle of Stalingrad continued in the form of casualties
