"What's the matter?" Vinogradov asked. He turned his head back, got into the turret behind, and looked out through the observation hole of the turret.
In front of the convoy, a burst of black smoke emerged. It was clear that one of our tanks was blown up!
At the same time, the counterattack started here, with the sound of machine guns and cannons, greeted not far away.
The noise lasted for three to five minutes, and finally calmed down again, until now, the sound in the radio became clear.
"The report, a T-26 tank was attacked, the tank was hit, and the tanker inside was killed. We have expelled the Finnish partisans." The report from the radio made Vinogradov extremely angry: " What? Just disperse? Why not chase?"
"Master, based on the experience of Division 163, we are not suitable for entering the woods to continue chasing. There may be Finnish traps in there."
The report was the commander of the tank unit, and this report made Vinogradov even more depressed.
He pushed open the canopy above his head and looked into the distance, yes, there are woods all around, and in the woods, I don't know how many Finn traps are hidden there!
"Go on." Vinogradov issued an order. His task is to support the 163 Infantry Division. Now, he cannot be delayed by an attack here.
He wants to continue!
The troops continued to move forward, they didn't know, this was just the beginning.
"Ace troop, it's just a scum, the reaction is not as good as the 163 division, and the equipment is useless."
In the woods, Royce listened to the reports of the two soldiers who went to attack.
They originally attacked the logistics unit of the 163 division. Now, on this route, a larger unit has appeared, the 44 motorized division of the Soviets, just like that!
This makes them very excited, no matter how many people come from the other party, once they enter the woods, they are in the world.
Two people just went out, one carrying a cannon and the other carrying a cannonball. After they opened fire, they sled back and ran back. As a result, it took the Soviets two minutes to find them!
At this time, they had retreated to the woods, and the Soviet artillery and machine guns did not cause any harm to them. This also tested the ability of this unit, scum.
"Yes, this unit is the under-reading unit. It is the most adept at kicking upright and keeping in line, but they are not good at fighting, especially, they are not good at fighting here." Royce said: "Next, it belongs to us. We let the Soviets know whose territory this place is."
At this moment, Aalto on the side said: "This time, the Soviets' convoy was too large. We only killed a few tanks and armored vehicles. There was not much effect. I suggested that we should hit the other's key vehicles. "
Key vehicles? Shouldn't it be a tank? Royce looked at the old Finnish hunter. These days, the cooperation between the two parties has become intimate.
"Royce, think about it, what is the most important thing for a unit?" Aalto held a cup of hot milk in his hand. At this time, the milk inside was still steaming.
In the woods on both sides of the Latai Highway, they have established a number of replenishment points. This is a hidden point where the snowdrifts are dug up and the pure white tents are set up. There are food, ammunition, shelter from the wind, and it is very warm. .
When the hot milk is drunk into the stomach, I feel warm all over.
Looking at Aalto, Royce finally understood that this old hunter was extremely quick in thinking!
This method is high!
"Stop and get ready to cook!" Following the order from the radio, the entire motorized division, which had stretched for several kilometers on the highway, stopped.
After walking for a long time, I am hungry and it is time to eat.
For ordinary infantry soldiers, a company has a cooking squad, carrying a cauldron, and making a fire to cook whenever necessary.
However, for motorized divisions, it is much more advanced. For example, their troops are equipped with field cooking wagons.
In the wild, it’s not easy to make a fire to cook. Just set up a stove and the wind direction is not suitable. It is very difficult to make a fire. At the same time, now, the whole land is frozen and there is snow everywhere. I want to find it quickly. It is not easy for the venue to support the pot.
Therefore, the importance of field cooking wagons is revealed.
Of course, these are not vehicles with a special truck chassis. That would be too wasteful. They are just a kind of trailer, which can be towed behind the truck. Two tires are about the same weight as an anti-tank gun.
The middle of the tires is the stove, and there is no need to burn wood. Diesel is directly burned inside.
Ordinary soldiers jumped out of the car and moved their muscles and bones. At the same time, the cooking soldiers got busy.
First of all, set the fire on, let the stove heat up, shovel the snow directly in the wild, put it in a big pot, and soon the snow will melt into water .
In later generations, snow cannot be eaten directly. It is too dirty. In fact, it is not snow that is dirty, but it is combined with the dirt in the air during the process of formation.
In this era, the air is still very clean, the snow is also very clean, after the water is boiled, there is nothing dirty in it.
Soon, the heat rose up.
On the side of the cooking cart, a board was opened, which was the chopping board. The cooking soldiers took out a cabbage and cut it into small pieces. At this time, the water was already tumbling and splashing.
Uncovering the lid of the pot, throwing the cabbage inside, closing the lid, the cook continued to open the boxes that were frozen hard.
Canned food, canned beef from Central Asia, this thing makes people look drooling. Cut a few cans with a knife, cut the canned beef inside into pieces, and continue to throw it into the pot.
A smell of fragrance floated across the road.
Sitting on the side of the car, smoking cigarettes, and smelling the scents in the air, everyone is very energetic. This is the best time of the day.
They have prepared rice bowls, and in a while, they will fill up with a bowl of vegetable porridge and eat a few bites of brown bread, and they will be full enough for the night.
Well, just smell this scent, it seems you can smell it full.
As if they knew what they were thinking, the cooking soldiers lifted the lid and stirred it again with a spoon. At this moment, someone yelled, "Be careful!"
When they were attacked last time, they became more careful. After they stopped, sentries were placed on both sides of the road, and some people were waiting on the turret with machine guns.
Even so, it is difficult for them to quickly find the Finn from the snow, and the surroundings are white and difficult to identify.
In many cases, they can't find out until the other party fires, like now!
