Red Moscow

After Sokov shot and knocked down the German tank soldier, he didn't dare to fight and turned around and ran back because he saw more tank soldiers rushing over. He couldn't beat them alone.

As soon as he ran around the corner, the gunfire behind him rang out. If he ran a little slower, he would be shot into a sieve by the machine guns on the German tanks. And there was also a shell that hit the house at the corner, causing bricks and stones to fly.

When he ran to the place where Andrei parked his car, panting, two T-34 tanks also arrived here.

"Comrade soldier," the major who half stuck out of the turret asked Sokov, "Did you find the German tanks?"

"Yes, major." Sokov said loudly, "I found several German Type 3 tanks and assault guns parked on the street on the left side of the intersection ahead."

"We only have two tanks, so we are definitely no match for the enemy." The major said, "We should leave the town immediately and think of other ways to avoid conflict with the enemy."

"Major, wait a minute." Seeing that the major was going to retreat, Sokov suddenly became anxious. He shouted to the major, "You stay here, I'll lead the German tanks over." After that, before the major finished speaking, Sokov had bent down and grabbed the anti-tank grenade from the sidecar of the sidecar, turned around and ran towards the street where the German tanks were parked.

Seeing that he was about to run to the street where the German tanks were parked, Sokov slowed down his speed to avoid rushing too fast and rushing directly into the street. Maybe the muzzles and guns of the German tanks were aiming at the turning position, and they would shoot frantically when they saw a target.

Sokov thought quickly in his mind about what he should do to blow up the German tanks. Hiding at the turning of the building, quickly sticking his head out, and throwing anti-tank grenades, this is definitely the most convenient way, but whether you can hit the target depends on luck.

At this time, Sokov saw that the windows of several households on the first floor of the building where he was going to hide did not even have window frames. He was immediately delighted and thought that he could enter the second floor of the building and use anti-tank grenades to destroy the German tanks on the street from a high position. He hurried to a window, inserted the anti-tank grenade into the belt on his waist, hung the submachine gun around his neck, and used his hands and feet to climb through the window to enter the house.

The house was in a mess, with fallen bricks and rubble everywhere. He walked out of the room carefully, went up the broken stairs to the second floor, found a room on the side, pushed the door and walked in. He came to the window and looked down. There was a long line of German tanks and assault guns parked on the street, and the muzzles were all pointed at the corner where he just appeared. However, he didn't see a single German soldier. They should have hidden in the tanks or assault guns. Even the bodies of the tank soldiers he killed were gone.

Seeing this situation, Sokov couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. If he appeared from the corner of the street again, he would definitely be hit by artillery fire and machine guns. If that was the case, he might die without a complete body.

He quickly counted and saw a total of six Type 3 tanks and two assault guns. The first and last ones were both Type 3 tanks. He was now closest to the first tank. After pulling the fuse of the anti-tank grenade, he smashed it directly at the tank.

As soon as the grenade was thrown, Sokov took two steps back and squatted on the ground with his head in his hands.

The moment the grenade touched the tank, a deafening roar broke out. Flames shot up into the sky, and a powerful shock wave spread all around. The tank's armor was torn open by the power of the explosion, and billowing black smoke rose up.

When Sokov saw the black smoke coming out from below, he knew that the tank had been destroyed. He did not stay for long, and quickly went downstairs, climbed out of the window, and quickly ran to the location where his tank was parked.

Seeing Sokov running over, the major asked loudly: "Comrade Soldier, what's the situation? Not only did I hear the sound of the grenade exploding, but I also saw the billowing black smoke burning over there."

Sokov came to the tank, looked up and shouted to the major: "Major, there are six Type 3 tanks and two assault guns parked on that street. I have blown up the first tank. The street is narrow, and the remaining tanks can't rush over."

"Great, this is really great." The major couldn't help but smile after hearing this, and said to Sokov: "Comrade Soldier, then we can go back and notify the convoy behind us, and quickly pass through this town while the German tanks are blocked on the road."

The major's words surprised Sokov. In this case, shouldn't he take the opportunity to go over and clean up the chaotic German tanks? Why did he turn around and leave? He quickly said to the major: "Comrade Major, I have an idea. We should take advantage of the favorable opportunity when the enemy tanks are blocked and destroy them all."

The major was stunned for a while when he heard Sokov say this, and then said: "We only have two tanks, and the enemy has four times as many tanks as us. Even if you just blew up one, there are still five tanks and two assault guns. We are no match for them at all."

"Major." Sokov climbed onto the tank and said solemnly: "Now the enemy tanks are blocked in the narrow street. You just need to drive through and destroy them one by one like shooting fixed targets."

The major looked at the intersection where Sokov escaped, and then said: "Comrade Soldier, you can see that the intersection is too narrow. If both of our tanks drive through, they can't move at all."

"Major, I have a suggestion." Sokov knew very well that he was just a rookie with little influence in the eyes of the other party. If the suggestion was not convincing, the other party would not listen to it at all. He continued: "Send a tank to the intersection to attack the German tanks parked on the street. And the other tank, follow me to go behind the Germans and beat them hard."

The major thought about Sokov's suggestion for a while, and finally chose to agree. He said to the lieutenant next to him: "Lieutenant, your tank goes to the intersection ahead and attacks the German tanks parked on the street. There are many German tanks, you should pay attention to concealment when you carry out the attack. Do you understand?"

"Understood." After the lieutenant agreed loudly, his tank drove towards the intersection.

Sokov sat in the sidecar of the sidecar, turned his head and shouted to the major: "Major, follow me, I will take you to cut off the Germans' retreat."

When the sidecar started, the tank where the major was also followed at full speed, driving quickly along the street, ready to cut off the Germans' retreat and destroy all the tanks on the narrow street.

The tank driven by the lieutenant came to the intersection, and only the body and turret were exposed from the corner of the building. Fortunately, the first destroyed German tank was burning at this moment. The flames and billowing black smoke blocked the vision of the German tanks on the street, and they did not find out in time that the Soviet tanks had entered the range.

After observing the situation on the battlefield, the lieutenant decisively ordered to load armor-piercing shells and shoot at the assault gun in the second position.

The flames and black smoke burning in the first tank not only blocked the vision of the German tank soldiers, but also affected the vision of the Soviet tank soldiers. The shells fired hit the top of the assault gun, forming ricochets, hitting the wall of the building next to it and exploding, and the falling bricks and stones hit the street.

The German tanks on the street seemed even more chaotic because of the sudden shelling. Some were trying to reverse, and some turrets were constantly turning to find the direction of the shells. The assault gun that was hit by a shell decisively fired a shot at the corner.

Although the gun did not hit the target, the Soviet tank lieutenant was still shocked, and he quickly ordered the driver to retreat the tank. He knew very well that if he missed the first shot, he would inevitably expose the target if he wanted to attack the German tanks again. At that time, even if he destroyed one or two tanks, his own tank would probably not escape the fate of being destroyed.     Besides, Sokov, who was taking the major's tank to the rear, had already appeared behind the German tank column. Seeing that the enemy tanks were in chaos at the moment, he quickly ordered Andrei to stop the car on the side of the road, and then sent a signal to the major who was following closely, indicating that he could attack the German tanks.

The major saw the situation of the German armored column and knew that this was indeed the best time to attack, so he decisively issued an attack order.

A shell flew out and accurately hit the turret of the last tank, and the tank immediately began to burn.

Sokov saw two tank soldiers covered in flames escape from the burning tank, and hurriedly rushed forward with a submachine gun and pulled the trigger at the backs of the two. After a series of shots, the two tank soldiers staggered forward a few steps, and then fell to the ground.

Seeing that the attack was effective, the major was overjoyed and quickly ordered the gunner to reload and prepare to continue shelling the chaotic German tanks.

But at this moment, he saw Sokov raised his hand and gestured to him, indicating that he should stop shelling.

The major didn't understand why he had to stop shooting at this critical moment? He saw Sokov standing in the middle of the road, seemingly looking at something in the middle of the tank column. He quickly came out of the turret, jumped off the tank, and walked quickly to Sokov's side, asking curiously: "Comrade Soldier, what are you looking at?"

"Comrade Major, look, is there a white flag on the tank in the middle of the German tank column?"

The major looked in the direction of Sokov's finger, and sure enough, he saw a submachine gun sticking out of the turret of a tank in the middle, with a white handkerchief tied to the barrel.

A few minutes later, an officer came out of the tank turret. He walked quickly towards the position where Sokov and others were. The submachine gun tied with a white handkerchief was held high by another tank soldier.

"Who is the commander among you?" The German officer asked, "I want to lead the troops to surrender to him. I wonder if he allows it?"

Sokof was about to reveal his identity, but he realized that he was just a new recruit who had just joined the army. Such matters could only be negotiated by the major next to him. He nodded to the major and said, "This is the major, our supreme commander. You can surrender to him."

After Sokov finished speaking, Andrei asked curiously, "Sokov, do you speak German?"

Sokof didn't expect that he spoke fluent German when he was talking to the German officer just now. He thought to himself, is this the benefit of this time travel, making him proficient in German? He didn't bother to find a reason to explain to Andrei, so he turned his head and said to the major, "Comrade Major, this German officer said he wants to surrender to us and asks if you allow it?"

After hearing this, the major showed an embarrassed expression on his face, and he asked back, "Comrade Soldier, do you think we should accept their surrender?"

Sokof remembered that during the Operation Garden of Death, after the British occupied a bridge, the nearby German garrison was ready to surrender to the British commander. But the arrogant commander rejected the other party's request and said that he was not capable of accepting prisoners. Seeing that the British did not accept their surrender, the German army set up a battle formation. In the end, the British army suffered heavy losses, and the remaining officers and soldiers had to surrender to the German army.

In order to avoid a similar tragedy from happening again, Sokov said to the German officer without hesitation: "Mr. Officer, my commander said that he accepts your surrender, let your people get out of the tank."

The German officer turned around and whispered a few words to the soldier behind him, and the soldier turned around and ran back. He came to the tank just now, quickly climbed onto the tank, and shouted a few times into it.

A few minutes later, tank soldiers gradually came out of the tanks parked on the street, standing against the wall with their hands raised high.

Sokov held a submachine gun and walked towards the middle of the tank column, wanting to drive all the prisoners to the position where the major and his men were, and Andrei was responsible for guarding them.

But when he walked to the middle, he accidentally saw an alley next to him, so he turned his head casually. This sight almost scared him to death. He didn't expect that there were several German tanks parked in this alley.

He clenched the submachine gun in his hand, ready to fight these tanks to the death if necessary.

But his worries were unnecessary. When the tank soldiers who came out of the tanks saw Sokov's appearance, they raised their hands high, fearing that the other party would suddenly shoot at them.

When Sokov drove the German tank soldiers to the major's side to gather, he heard someone next to him shouting in Russian: "Comrade, save us!"

Hearing the shout, Sokov turned his head and found that in a window of the building next to him, a Soviet soldier was waving desperately at him. He stopped and asked the other party: "How many people are there? How many Germans are guarding you?"

"We have more than 30 people, and there are only two Germans guarding us."

"Immediately seize their guns and take them all out."

The soldier agreed and retracted his head. Soon, Sokov heard a cheer from inside.

Not long after, two German soldiers with their hands raised walked out of the unit door. Behind them, followed a group of Soviet soldiers. Except for two soldiers holding 98K rifles, the rest were unarmed.

Although Sokov saw that one of them had the rank of second lieutenant on his collar badge, he still gave them orders: "Pick up the weapons thrown on the ground by the Germans, and follow me to take these prisoners out."

But the major and Andrei outside were stunned when they saw Sokov leading a group of Soviet soldiers and escorting German prisoners out.
