Arc of Gunfire

Yegorov was standing by the window observing the west side at this time, as if he was not afraid of the enemy's shelling at all.

The main reason is that the three-story manor owned by Mr. Boyer where he is staying is relatively strong, and it may not be able to take down the 75mm infantry cannon.

The sturdier thing is the main building of the winery. I am afraid that the people of Plosen did not expect that there would be a solid building made of reinforced concrete in such a small village.

Yegorov thought about it, but when he couldn't bear it any longer, he retreated to the winery and resisted by relying on solid buildings.

At this moment, he heard a different sound among the enemy's artillery and explosions.

"The tank fired?" Yegorov turned his head and looked behind him - that is, to the east.

After a second of hesitation, Yegorov quickly came to the east window.

He couldn't see the tank because of the obstruction of the buildings, but he could see the smoke set by the enemy in the wilderness to the east.

The Ant Army also distributed smoke grenades, but that was based on the "advanced experience" of the Prosen Army.

Yegorov said to himself: "It seems that the Prosin Japs have gone around to the east, and Count Rokossov is leading the tanks to fight the enemy! How did he find the enemy?"

While speaking, Yegorov raised his telescope and observed in vain. Still unable to see the battle situation, he turned to Sergeant Major Grigory and said: "Take a machine gun, go to the entrance of the village to the east, find a good position and set it up." . The Count only has one tank, and the enemy has set up smoke, which may not completely block the enemy. "

Grigory saluted: "Leave it to me, Lieutenant Colonel Yegorov."

After watching Grigory leave, Yegorov looked eastward again and muttered: "How did the count discover that the enemy was retreating?"

Pavlov: "Maybe this is a genius military strategist."

As soon as he finished speaking, a 75mm grenade hit the wall of the main building of the manor. It did not penetrate the wall, but only caused a pile of dust to fall sparsely on the roof.

Yegorov looked at the beams above his head, and after making sure that the house would not collapse, he turned and stared at the chief of staff: "Stop talking!"

At this time, Wang Zhong watched the last half-track turn into burning scrap metal.

He raised his vision and quickly counted the remaining infantry in the wilderness.

There were about sixty or seventy infantrymen who survived, all scattered in the wilderness.

The enemy closest to the village will enter the village in another five hundred meters.

The top priority now is to quickly return to the entrance of the village and defend it. Once the infantry enters the village, it will be difficult to deal with it with tanks - even if Wang Zhong has a plug-in.

At this moment, a machine gun appeared at the window of the easternmost building in the village and started shooting at the enemies in the wilderness without saying a word.

This machine gun was still a captured enemy machine gun. The sound of shooting was not the dull chug of the Ant Army's heavy machine gun, but a harsh sound like tearing a canvas.

Wang Zhong saw all this clearly and immediately decided to drive the tank to the side of the village entrance and cross fire with the machine gun organization at the entrance of the village.

Without half-tracks, the enemy loses its mobility and mobile bunkers. It is difficult for infantry alone to break through the cross-fire network of machine guns in the wilderness.

"Driver, stop and turn 180 degrees!"

Even Wang Zhong heard the sound of the driver pulling the joystick - this tank had no such convenient thing as a steering wheel. It was controlled entirely by two joysticks, with one joystick controlling one side of the track.

As the driver operated, the tracks on both sides of the tank rotated in opposite directions, and the long body began to turn around in place.

Su Fang was still shooting, but as soon as the tank turned around, the whip consisting of tracer bullets swept directly into the wilderness.

"Say something before you turn!" Su Fang complained loudly, "I've wasted all my bullets!"

Wang Zhong had no time to pay attention to her. When the tank turned to the direction he wanted, he immediately knocked on the roof of the turret and shouted: "Stop! Stop turning! Put it in gear, move forward at full speed, and stop when you reach the edge of the village!"

The tank started running, and Su Fang protested: "We can't shoot at the enemy anymore!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a bullet hit the tank turret, causing a string of sparks to fly away.

Wang Zhong turned around and found that the enemy was pulling the bolt on the tank in the wilderness. Unfortunately, the distance was too far now, and even the well-trained Proson soldiers could only try their luck.

However, the infantry organization of the Prossen people is the same as that of Germany in another time and space. The core of the infantry team is the machine gun. If the machine gun fires——

Before he finished speaking, the enemy's machine gun opened fire.

Wang Zhong immediately found the machine gunner and found that he was holding a machine gun to shoot. It should be because the enemy was in the wheat field now. The wheat was already very high in summer, and he could not aim while lying on the ground, so he could only fire with the machine gun.

The accuracy of the hand-held machine gun can be imagined. It looks like tracer bullets are coming towards Wang Zhong, but in fact they are all fired too high.

Su Fang shrank her neck, losing the vigor with which she had just killed the enemy, and instead clung to Wang Zhong.

Wang Zhong: "Why are you so close?"

Su Fang: "I think the bullet might go around you!"

"Look at the injury on my shoulder and tell me again? I still have a fever!"

Although the conversation was very tense, Wang Zhong knew that it would not be surprising to be shot anytime in this situation. Who can say for sure about the battlefield?

But the strange thing is that he is not afraid at all.

And he always felt that his fearlessness had little to do with adrenaline - because his breathing was very steady now.

As soon as he thought this, Su Fang said: "Konstantinovich, you are so brave. I am even trembling with fear, but you are as usual!"

Konstantinovich is Wang Zhong's patronymic name. In this case, calling him by his patronymic name probably means expressing respect.

Wang Zhong glanced at the girl, and it took him a second to remember that she was an Oriental and had no father's name, so he had to call her by her name: "Su Fang, you are also very brave."

At this time, the driver's voice came from the earphones: "We are about to reach the edge of the village. There is a low wall in front of us."

Wang Zhong: "Stop in front of the low wall and face the enemy."

The tank braked immediately and turned around.

Su Fang seemed to have been holding it in for a long time. She picked up the machine gun and fired back at the Prossen gunner who had just been sending tracer bullets over the two people's heads.

The result was unsurprisingly low.

After all, she had just gotten close to the enemy, so she set the scale at 100.

Wang Zhong estimated the distance and said to Su Fang: "The ruler is set at four hundred!"

"Oh!" Su Fang stopped shooting and started to adjust the ruler.

At this time, the two machine gun turrets in front of the tank also opened fire. Two whips of death composed of tracer bullets and the machine guns at the entrance of the village formed a crossfire.

Su Fang finished adjusting the ruler and joined them.

The enemy may have thrown away all the smoke bombs, and now they have nothing to do against the fire net.

A machine gunner found a field bump, set up his machine gun on it, and began to fire back.

Wang Zhong immediately grabbed Su Fang's hand and pushed her line of fire toward the enemy. At the same time, he ordered the gunner: "Did you see Su Fang's tracer bullets? Did you see any enemy machine guns there?"

"I saw it!" the gunner replied while stepping on the turret steering pedal and pointing the stubby tank gun at the enemy.

Loader: "High explosive, okay!"

The gunner stepped on the trigger pedal.

Because of the short distance, the shell hit almost the moment the gun was fired, and the Prossen gunner and ammunition hand flew into the sky together - literally flying into the sky.

Su Fang: "Okay! Let you shoot me!"

Wang Zhong’s earphones were filled with cheers from the tank crews.

But he couldn't be happy, because from a bird's-eye view, he saw that the enemy from the front was also attacking.

Happy New Year everyone and happy New Year’s Eve.
