Red Moscow

The tank driven by Lin Hua easily destroyed the German fortifications. The high-speed rotating tracks ran over the scattered sandbags, crushing the machine gunners and their machine guns under the sandbags.

Seeing the tank rushing towards the fortification, a deputy machine gunner immediately got up and ran back. When the tank crashed into the German fortifications, he had already run more than ten meters. How could Lin Hua allow him to escape so easily, he quickly stopped the tank, grabbed the handle of the heading machine gun, and towards the back of the fleeing German soldier, he slammed the trigger.

Amidst a series of crisp gunshots, the running German soldiers were shaken violently, and their running speed suddenly slowed down. He put his hands behind his back and tried to cover the wound on his back, but he was unsuccessful. He staggered forward two more steps, turned half a circle on the spot, and fell softly on the snow.

Seeing that the enemy had been shot dead, Lin Hua stopped his body, opened the hatch above, leaned out half of his body and looked behind. I saw that the captain and Vanya had rushed up with the troops. The captain stopped seven or eight steps away from the tank, gave Lin Hua a thumbs up, and kept talking. Because the roar of the tank engine was too loud, Lin Hua couldn't hear what the other party was saying at all.

Lin Hua got out of the turret, jumped out of the tank, and quickly came to the captain and asked, "Comrade captain, I didn't hear clearly what you just said."

The captain smiled and said: "I said you are a good guy! I want to ask you, can you drive this tank to open the way for us?"

Lin Hua didn't know if there would be another German fire point suddenly appearing on the road ahead. After thinking for a while, he nodded in agreement.

When the captain ordered the soldiers to treat the wounded and collect the remains of the soldiers, Assia followed Vasily's third row and rushed over. She saw Lin Hua wearing a tank hat and standing next to a tank, and hurried over and asked concerned: "Misha, I just heard the gunshots here are very intense, how are you, are you not injured?" ?”

Seeing Lin Hua shaking his head with a smile, indicating that he was not injured, Assia asked curiously, "Why are you wearing a tank cap? Where did your steel helmet go?"

Lin Hua pouted at Vanya, who was gathering troops, and said, "It's with him. The reason why I wear a tank cap is because I want to drive a tank!"

"What, you drive a tank?" Assia was taken aback when she heard Lin Hua say this, then covered her stomach and laughed: "Misha, it's ridiculous that you can actually drive a tank, hahaha !"

Seeing that Assia did not believe that she could drive a tank, Lin Hua smiled wryly, and greeted Vanya who was walking towards her: "Comrade second lieutenant, tell our female health worker, whether I can drive a tank!"

Vanya looked at Assia and nodded, and said affirmatively, "That's right, Comrade Company Commander can indeed drive a tank." He said to Assia with his hand towards the destroyed sandbag fortification not far away, "You see, the fortification of the German army was destroyed by the company commander driving a tank. If the company commander hadn't stepped in today, we don't know how much we would have paid."

"My God!" After listening to Vanya's explanation, Assia looked at Lin Hua with wide eyes, and said in surprise, "Misha, I really didn't expect that you can drive a tank. You are really amazing !" After finishing speaking, she stepped forward to hug Lin Hua, and kissed him quickly on the cheek.

"Hey, I'm talking about Comrade Lieutenant." The captain came over at some point, stood a few steps away from Lin Hua and Asiya, and said jokingly, "I didn't affect your intimacy, did I?"

Lin Hua quickly glanced at where the captain's troops were, and saw that they had assembled, and the lightly wounded who were able to move were all standing in the queue; while the seriously wounded were lying on stretchers beside them, there were two men Hygienists are taking care of them. Seeing that the friendly forces had assembled, Lin Hua quickly asked, "Comrade Captain, are we ready to go?"

"Yes, yes, Comrade Lieutenant, we can go." The captain nodded and asked in a negotiating tone: "Do you mind if I sit in the tank with you?"

"I don't mind," Lin Hua shook his head and said with a smile, "Comrade Captain, please come in!" After finishing speaking, he helped the captain climb onto the tank, and then turned his head and told Vanya: "Second Lieutenant, how many do you bring?" You can ride in a tank with three soldiers. As for you, Assia, sit in the tank too."

The two companies followed the tank driven by Lin Hua and headed towards the city of Istria. The captain approached Lin Hua's ear and asked loudly: "Comrade lieutenant, your driving skills are pretty good. Where did you learn it?"

Naturally, Lin Hua would not tell the other party that he learned to drive a tank in the tank museum of later generations, but said vaguely: "Comrade Captain, I used to drive a crawler tractor in a collective farm. The driving of a tank The method is similar to that of a crawler tractor, because I can drive a tank, which is not surprising at all.”

The captain didn't know the details of Lin Hua, thinking that he had really stayed in the collective farm, so he didn't get to the bottom of it. He just stared at the road ahead through the observation hole in the front of the tank, guiding Lin Hua where to drive.

Not long after, the troops arrived outside Istria. Lin Hua parked the tank beside a checkpoint and led his company towards the city.

Seryozha walked up to Lin Hua, and asked curiously: "Misha, I think this tank is quite good. If we want to attack the German fortifications in the future, we can just drive it and hit it. We can stay, why? Are you going to throw it on the side of the road?"

"Seryozha," Lin Hua heard his old friend say this, and felt that it was necessary to remind him: "Don't forget, we are infantry, not tank soldiers. Once this tank runs out of fuel, we have to Will we be sued for loss of military equipment and court-martialed when we don’t throw it away?”

Lin Hua's words startled Seryozha, he quickly waved his hands and said, "Since this is the case, let it be left on the side of the road, so as not to be sent to a military court for no reason."

Under the guidance of the patrol team, Lin Hua led his company to the southeast of the city and found the command post of the 765th Regiment. He let the soldiers line up outside, and then walked into the command post alone. He came to Batrakov with big strides, raised his hand to his forehead, and reported loudly: "Comrade Commander, Lieutenant Sokov reports to you that the Istrel company has been ordered to go to East Pull the city back to build it. I am waiting for your order, please instruct!"
