After more than half an hour, Gaidar and Oleg both called and reported to me that the offensive troops were already in place and ready to attack the enemy's position. After listening to the report of the two, I just said briefly: "Now that I'm ready, let's start the attack!"

After giving the offensive order, I turned my head to look at Kirilov and Bantai Lev, and asked them with a smile: "Political commissar, deputy division commander, you don’t want to see how our troops seized the high ground from the enemy’s hands. Did you come here?"

After hearing this, Kirilov smiled and said: "I really want to see it, but Major Akhromeyev has gone to the fourth regiment position. Someone needs to be left in the headquarters to deal with emergencies. Comrade husband is not familiar with the situation in the teacher, so I should stay on duty."

Hearing what he said, Pantai Leyev also showed a smile on his face. He looked at me and asked, "Comrade Commander, let me accompany you at the observation station on the top of the mountain to observe this battle, okay?"

"No problem," seeing Bantai Leyev willing to go to the observation post on the top of the mountain with me, I agreed without hesitation, "Comrade Deputy Commander, let's go."

Seeing me putting on my helmet and carrying a submachine gun to go out, Kirilov hurriedly called out my guard battalion commander: "Captain Basmanov, Captain Basmanov." Seeing the latter's attention was lost by himself. After being attracted, he then ordered: "Take a platoon with the teacher and them to the observation station on the top of the mountain. Remember, you must ensure the safety of the teacher. If something happens to her, I can only ask you."

Since I was in the second regiment last time. After the German troops who were almost infiltrated in disguise were killed, Basmanov didn't dare to neglect the slightest as long as I went out. Even if the political commissar did not order, he would lead at least one platoon to follow me. Hearing Kirilov's instructions, he immediately replied loudly, saying that there was already a platoon of soldiers waiting outside.

When Pantai Leyev and I walked along the traffic trench to the top of the mountain, he looked back at the group of guards following us, and couldn't help but jokingly said, "Comrade commander. You are on your head to catch up with the commander of the front. You must know that even if Commander Yeleimenko or Comrade Khrushchev went wherever he went, he would only be followed by a squad of fighters. Look at the fighters following us at this moment. Many times."

When I heard Bantai Leyev say this, I gave a wry smile, and some helplessly explained: "Comrade deputy commander, it's not that I like to put on airs, but the political commissar is thinking about my safety. You know, there was a disguise last time. The Germans of our army got into the trenches. I almost killed Lieutenant Colonel Oleg and I. From then on. I don’t care where I go, the political commissar must send at least one platoon soldier to defend my safety."

When we entered the observation post, Basmanov was responsible for protecting our safety. He was also afraid of ropes after being bitten by a snake for ten years. He not only set up a guard force near the observation post, but even set up two sets in a relatively hidden place. Firepower. According to his arrangement, even if an enemy rushes into the trenches, it will not be able to rush to the observation post for a while, and we will have enough time to evacuate to a safe place.

In our view, the troops of the 2nd and 4th regiments all began to advance to the 107.5 heights occupied by the Germans. Pantai Leyev was observing the advancing troops of the Second Regiment, while I focused on the cooperation between the Fourth Regiment and Captain Gritsenko's troops.

The three tanks of the Nicholas Battalion still painted with white cross marks opened their way in front, followed by hundreds of our commanders and fighters. Although they are all wearing the same clothes at the moment, I can tell at a glance that those are the troops of Captain Gritsenko and those are the commanders of the Fourth Regiment. I gently touched Pantai Leyev with my elbow, and said softly to him: "Comrade deputy commander, look over there. You can tell which are the soldiers of the Nikolai Camp and which are the four regiments. The commander?"

Pantai Leyev looked at the telescope to the north. After looking at it for a while, he slowly shook his head, and replied awkwardly: "Comrade Commander, I really can't tell. Everyone is wearing the same uniform. What a difference."

"There are still differences, comrade deputy commander." Seeing that Bantai Lev couldn't tell the difference between the two units, I took the opportunity to show off as a good teacher: "It's actually very easy to identify. Look, follow the tank. The back row was formed into three loose offensive formations. It was Captain Gritsenko’s troops that moved forward in neat steps; and those crowded together and walking lazily, they knew it was four. Many of the regiment’s troops are recruits who have not undergone special queue training, so there is more or less a shadow of ordinary people on their bodies."

After listening to me, Pantai Leyev snorted in his nose. He still looked down on Gritsenko company: "Although Captain Gritsenko’s troops are going pretty much, they don’t know how to wait. After a while, what is their combat effectiveness?"

When the Allied Forces of the Fourth Regiment and Gritsenko entered only seven or eight hundred meters from the high ground, several mortars on the high ground fired. The shells roared past the tank that opened in front, and landed directly in the attacking queue. Several soldiers in the front row of Gritsenko Company fell in the explosion, and the soldiers in the back row quickly stepped up to fill the gap in the middle, without the slightest panic. The commanders of the Fourth Regiment are much worse. Although the landing point of the mortar shells is still some distance away from them, most of them chose to lie down on the ground, and the rest who did not lie down are obviously veterans After the explosion, they waved the weapons in their hands and drove the officers and men lying on the ground to get up and continue to move forward.

"Comrade Commander," said Pantai Leyev, who was gritted with anger after seeing this scene through the telescope, with a serious expression: "With just two shells falling, our troops are basically all lying on the ground. It seems right. The training of the troops has to be done."

The troops attacking the north side were under the cover of tanks, advancing to the high ground, and it would take at least five or six minutes to exchange fire with the enemy, so I turned my attention to the troops of the second regiment. Attacking the south side of the plateau was a battalion of Khorushov. I saw their troops also lined up in a loose offensive queue. Striding forward to the high ground. And the soldiers in the militia camp of Captain Trushin. Instead, they lined up in a dense formation, with the soldiers holding their weapons and marching side by side to the high ground.

Bantai Leev also saw the militia battalion queue. He frowned and said with dissatisfaction: "What's the matter with this militia battalion commander? Why do the soldiers line up in such a dense formation? You know, as long as the enemy’s A cannonball falls in between them, or a machine gun shoots at them. It can kill and wound many of them. No, they can’t use this kind of death-death formation to attack. They must immediately find someone to stop them. they."

I did not agree with Bantai Leyev’s opinion, and stopped him from sending people to stop Trushin’s actions, and said calmly to him: "Comrade deputy commander, if we go over the regiment-level commander and direct the troops, It will cause confusion in the command system of the troops. Now that we have sent the offensive orders to the regiments, let these commanders play freely and give them a stage to show their talents."

Pantai Leyev sat down on a bench by the wall and said unwillingly: "Comrade commander. Are you just watching the commander below blindly command and let our soldiers go to death for nothing? ."

"Comrade deputy commander. The matter is not as serious as you said." In order to reassure him, I explained to him the true considerations in my heart: "You should know that our commanders, if there is no sacrifice, will sooner or later. If they become independent military chiefs, if they don’t even have the minimum resilience, then they are not worthy to remain in their current command positions. Through this small battle, many hidden problems will be exposed, which can make We make targeted improvements."

"Comrade commander, do you think we will win today's battle?" Bantai Leyev asked cautiously.

I nodded vigorously and said with certainty: "Don't worry, comrade deputy commander, our forces are several times more powerful than the Germans on the high ground, and the weapons and equipment are not necessarily weaker than them. It is not difficult to seize the high ground. It is just that the casualties may be greater. , It will take a little longer."

During the time we were chatting, there was intensive gunfire outside. It seems that our division's troops have entered an effective shooting range, and they are engaged in an exchange of fire with the Germans on the high ground.

I came to the observation port and raised the telescope to look north. The tank that was acting as cover was parked at the foot of the hill on the high ground, unhurriedly bombarding the exposed fire points on the high ground with tank guns. Although there are still mortar shells falling around the tank and exploding from time to time, they cannot cause any damage to it.

The craters and fortifications supported by Captain Gritsenko's troops quickly approached the mountainside position by jumping and rolling. The troops of the fourth regiment hid in the crater behind the tank and used firepower to cover the friendly attack.

I turned the binoculars to the west again, and saw that Trushin’s militia barracks had been suppressed by the fire on the top of the mountain and could not move on the ground. Occasionally, a few soldiers who were not afraid of death jumped from the ground and rushed out with their weapons. It was hit by the dense bullets, and then fell to the ground one after another.

The offensive of the militia battalion was frustrated, so what about the first battalion offensive of Khorushov? I looked to the south side of the high ground again, and saw that the commanders of the first battalion were hiding in the crater at the foot of the mountain. They did not immediately attack, but assisted the soldiers of the engineering company to install the launching tube of the flying thunder cannon.

After a few minutes, the flying thunder cannon began to show its strength. One by one, the bags flew out of the launch tube, drew a beautiful arc in the air ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and landed on the top of the mountain. After Bao fell on the ground and rolled a few times, there was an earth-shattering explosion. In the area of ​​the explosion, the silhouettes were either torn apart and fragmented, or lifted out of the deep trenches by air waves, turned into blood mist and mutilated limbs, and fell into the scorched dust.

The effect of the flying thunder cannon is far beyond everyone's imagination, and there is no need to even come to the second round of shooting, and there are no more active figures on the mountain top position. At this time, whether it was the first battalion on the south **** or the militia battalion on the east slope, they all decisively launched a charge toward the high ground.

After encountering sporadic resistance, the first battalion and the militia battalion met on the top of the hill, and then the two battalions joined forces and rushed to the mountainside, and the Gritsenko company, which was rushing upwards, fought the remaining German forces back and forth. .

Seeing this, I put down my binoculars, took a long breath, and said relaxedly to Pantai Leyev: "Comrade Deputy Commander, we won."
