Burning Moscow

>

I sat in the regimental headquarters of Xiejielikov for less than five minutes. Even the black tea in front of me was still cold, and a second lieutenant hurried in and asked Xiejiericho without paying any respect. The husband reported: "Comrade commander, there is a German army coming in our direction."

The second lieutenant’s report made Sergeikov excited, because it was a good time to show me a battle. He asked excitedly: "How many enemies have you come?"

"There was probably one company," the second lieutenant recalled: "According to our fighter's report, there was only one armored vehicle that acted with the enemy infantry, and no heavy weapons were found."

Hearing that the enemy had only one company, and there were no heavy weapons other than armored vehicles, Sederikov's cheeks were flushed with excitement. He said to me: "Comrade commander, the enemy has only one company. With the strength of our regiment, you can Easily wipe them out."

I nodded, and said flatly to him: "Our forces are several times that of the enemy. Even if we can't completely wipe them out, we can inflict heavy damage on them. Summon all your men and give them orders."

After obtaining my permission, Sederikov raised his head and said to the second lieutenant: "Comrade Lieutenant, immediately call the commanders of the first and second battalions."

The ensign agreed, turned and ran out of the command post. In less than two minutes, the house was crowded with a dozen commanders from the first battalion and the second battalion. They all gathered around the table, listening to Sergeikov giving orders.

The first battalion was deployed on the south side of the road, in the ruins of the urban area; the second battalion plus the third battalion and nine companies that were serving as guards were deployed in residential areas. When the German troops entered the ambush circle, they signaled with gunfire. The troops ambushing on both sides of the road opened fire together. Strive for the shortest possible time. Destroy an absolute majority of enemies. When seeing a red flare up, all the troops must charge without hesitation and annihilate the remaining enemies.

But after all the commanders left, Sederikov smiled and said to me: "Comrade commander, they are all deployed. Do you have any instructions?"

Looking at the empty command post, I secretly scolded the other commanders for leaving, and I now give instructions to use it as a fart. I snorted and said angrily: "I want to see how you eliminated this enemy."

My words shocked Sergeikov. Quickly persuaded me: "Master, the front is too dangerous, you should stay here and wait for the news."

I reluctantly said: "If I don't take a look on the battlefield in person, how can I know how powerful a group is? No, no matter what you say today, I will go to fight."

Sederikov knew something about my stubbornness. Hearing what I said, knowing that I could not change my mind, he could only bite the bullet and promised: "Well, comrade commander. Since you are determined to watch the battle, then Let me accompany you."

In order for me to see the entire battlefield clearly. Sejerikov took me to the fourth floor of the building at the front of the road. He pulled me to a hole that was blown up by a bomb, pointed at it and said, "Master, you can stay here. Not only do you have a wide view, but it is also not easy to be hit by enemy stray bullets."

I looked around and found that my current position was on the side of the building. There was a window on the left and right. The guards I brought occupied favorable terrain by the window, and the weapon in their hand was placed on the window. , Aiming downstairs.

I looked across the road downstairs, and saw that the commanders and fighters of the first battalion were hidden in the rubble, with their guns set up. That is, I can see where I am. If I'm marching on the ground, I can't find it unless I get to a very close distance.

Xiejielikov squatted next to me and asked kindly: "Comrade Commander, you can see this position clearly, right?"

I looked ahead and asked without looking back, "I was not discovered by the enemy when the troops were mobilized just now?"

"No, the enemy is still far away from us. I definitely can't find it." After he answered my question, he went on to explain: "The enemy will pass under the house where we are staying later, and wait for them to enter ours. After the ambush circle, I will send a signal to let the light and heavy machine guns ambush on both sides of the road fire decisively, first defeat the enemy, and then eliminate them all bit by bit."

After a while, the enemy appeared in my field of vision, and I quickly raised the telescope and looked forward. I saw an armored car slowly driving ahead, followed by a large group of German infantry in densely behind, but they obviously did not find our ambush, and they were approaching us with their guns.

As the enemy approached, I couldn't help but yelled at the guards on the left and right in a low voice: "Ready to fight!" I knew that before the first shot was fired, even the veteran soldiers would be in a sudden state of tension, so I habitually yelled a word to cheer up the soldiers around me.

The enemy is getting closer and closer, and now even without a telescope, you can clearly see that behind the armored vehicle, there are two German officers wearing big brimmed hats. I pointed to the armored vehicle and said to Sederikov: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, after the battle begins, we must find ways to kill the enemy's armored vehicles, otherwise it will cause huge casualties to our officers and soldiers."

Sederikov nodded and said affirmatively: "I arranged two anti-tank rifles in the next building. As long as the armored vehicles are in range, they will never be allowed to escape. At the same time, I also arranged a few. A sniper, a commander who specializes in killing the German army in battle, so that the German army who has lost its command cannot organize effective resistance."

"Good job, Comrade Lieutenant Colonel." Seeing Sergeikov's comprehensive consideration, I couldn't help but praise him: "Your deployment is comprehensive. Unless there is a miracle, this German army will become a force. The meat on our cutting board can only recognize us for butchering, and there is no possibility of escape."

At this point, there was a sharp, "pop" gunshot. I saw the bullet hit the German armored vehicle impartially, and a small spark spattered on the body. The gunshot became a signal, and then there was a burst of bean-like gunfire. Even the machine guns downstairs blared, and the dense bullets swept toward the enemy's queue.

Several German soldiers following the armored vehicle were caught off guard. Several were knocked down by dense bullets. The one behind quickly lay down on the spot. Raise the weapon and shoot at our commanders.

I looked at the German army formation that was still one or two hundred meters away, and asked loudly, "Who is it, who is it? Who shot it without getting an order?"

No one answered.

"Who the **** is it?" My voice grew louder, and at the same time my eyes swept across the guards, trying to find the person who fired without authorization. But no matter who I looked at, the other party shook his head, indicating that it was not the first shot he fired.

Because it is too far away from the enemy. So after fighting for a long time, our army's intensive firepower had limited damage to the enemy. Seeing that my guards all said that they were not firing the gun, Sergeikov clearly understood that there might be something wrong with his subordinates, so he leaned in and suggested to me with a face: "Comrade Commander, it looks like, The original plan is impossible to implement. I suggest that the enemy is still resisting and has not retreated for the time being. Order the first and second battalions to charge immediately. It can be eliminated as much as possible. The enemy should not be allowed to retreat like this."

"It had no choice but to do this." I saw the German soldiers who had been lying on the ground. He was getting up from the ground one after another, alternately covering and beginning to retreat. I can only grit my teeth and agree: "Immediately transfer the anti-tank crew here. Even if you can't eliminate many German soldiers, you must kill the enemy's armored vehicle."

Xiejielikov stood up straight and said to the second lieutenant who had been standing behind: "Second lieutenant, immediately send the signal flare, so that all the troops will immediately charge, and the enemy counts as many enemies as they can be eliminated."

After listening to his order, the second lieutenant pointed to the armored vehicle that stopped in place and shot us frantically with a machine gun and said: "Comrade commander, but the enemy's armored vehicle has not been killed yet. If the charge is launched at this time, our soldiers will suffer heavy casualties. of."

"The commander's order is not allowed to be discussed," Sergeikov, who was suffocating, suddenly attacked the ensign: "If you don't fire the signal immediately, believe it or not, I will shoot you." With that, he drew the pistol from the holster and pointed it at the ensign's forehead.

"Enough, Comrade Sejjerikov, don’t dare anymore, hurry up and hit the flare!” I listened to what they said. I was worried that Sejjerikov was really impulsive and would shoot at the second lieutenant. So turned around and yelled at him.

After the flares lifted off, the commanders of the first battalion and the second battalion rushed out from their hiding place shouting, quickly formed a skirmish formation, and rushed toward the enemy in front. Although the machine guns on the enemy's armored vehicles were still firing, knocking down a lot of the commanders in front of them, the ones behind still did not slow down and rushed forward without hesitation.

Seeing thousands of commanders and fighters rushing towards him, the German armored vehicles did not dare to stay anymore, and they drove backwards. The German soldiers lying on the ground as a cover task saw that the armored vehicles had run away, and after firing a few random shots, they also got up and ran back.

After our commanders rushed up, apart from the 30 or so German corpses on the ground, the remaining German soldiers had long gone without a trace. Seeing the commanders and fighters who had cleaned the battlefield and walked back with more than 20 seized guns, I felt uncomfortable, and I couldn't help covering my heart with my hands. Standing next to him, Sergeikov hurriedly stepped forward to support me and let me sit on a few broken bricks piled together in the room.

When I was about to rest, Sederikov helped me back to the command post. At this time, the commanders who participated in the war were all waiting in the room. Seeing Sergeikov and I came back, they all bowed their heads in shame.

I sat down at the table and looked at the pistols, five submachine guns and a large number of rifles leaning against the wall on the table. I felt infinitely sorry. I had planned well, but who knew it was because of the early sounding. One shot made our entire plan fall short.

Sederikov walked back and forth several times in front of his men with a blue face, slapped the table with his hands, and asked loudly, "A good plan, because of a gunshot, the result was completely ruined. Can anyone tell me what is going on? What is going on?"

The commander present lowered his head and said nothing.

"Say, whose subordinate fired the gun?" Sederikov took a step forward and moved several commanders of the first battalion aside, and then said to the commander of the second battalion: "I can hear the gunshots very well. It is clear that it came from the north side of the road and has nothing to do with the first battalion ambushing on the south side of the road."

Under his questioning, someone in the crowd suddenly said in a low voice: "The report leader, it was shot by soldiers of our company."

I followed the voice and saw that I had just met Captain Grakov, the commander of the Ninth Company. I was so angry that I rushed in front of Sederikov and asked, "Oh, Captain Grakov, it turned out to be The guns fired by your subordinates? I wonder how many enemies the soldier who fired shots killed during the battle?"

"I don't know this." Grakov's cheeks flushed flushed, and he lowered his head and replied in a low voice.

"Do you know that it is because your soldiers fired indiscriminately that we ruined such a good ambush plan?!" Sergeikov also asked this company commander with an angry face. The commanders moved to the side one after another, trying to keep a distance from him.

"Know, know!"

Sergeikov pointed to his nose and asked loudly: "Since you know which soldier fired the gun, why not bring him here? We must deal with this kind of discipline-breaking fighter seriously. Otherwise, similar things will happen in the future."

"He, he, he is coming, he can't come anymore!" the captain said hesitantly.

"Why can't you come?" Sergeikov asked angrily: "Are you afraid of being punished~www.wuxiaspot.com~ quietly leaving the team as a deserter?"

"No, no, not what you think." The captain shook his hands desperately, and explained to us: "After seeing the signal to initiate the charge, the soldier rushed out of the hiding place to attack the enemy. He rushed over, but unfortunately was hit by the enemy's machine gun bullets, and he was sacrificed heroically."

As soon as Grakov's words were uttered, the room suddenly became quiet, and the dead were the greatest. Although this soldier's recklessness led to the failure of our ambush plan, the others were already dead, and there was no way to trace the responsibility.

I waved my hand and said to Sederikov: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, forget it, you don't need to be held accountable anymore. As long as you remember this lesson, don't make similar mistakes again." At this point, I stand. I got up, glanced over all the commanders, and said to them in a positive tone: "Although today's ambush battle failed, it also gave me an insight into the combat effectiveness of a regiment, not just ambushes or offensives. The play is well organized. Yes, these are all the credits of you as commanders."

After hearing my compliment, unexpected expressions appeared on the faces of the commanders and fighters, and their heads that had been buried low were also raised high. (To be continued
