Red Moscow

When Rokossovsky learned that Istria Company had rushed into the enemy's position, he acted calmly. He said indifferently: "Comrade General, please express my congratulations to the commanders and fighters of Istria Company, Congratulations to them for their feats in the liberation of Volokramsk."

After putting down the phone, Rokossovsky said to Malinin: "Comrade Chief of Staff, this son of your old comrade-in-arms is really not simple. He has already rushed into the German position with troops."

When Malinin heard the news, he asked in surprise, "Is that the position that General Dovator commanded the troops to attack two days ago?" Seeing Rokossovsky nodding in affirmation, he couldn't help but said with emotion, "It's not easy. , It's really not easy. The several attacks we launched all ended in failure. I didn't expect that Xiao Misha would rush into the enemy's position as soon as he got out. Comrade Commander, do you see if we need to provide him with some help? ?”

"Help? What kind of help?" Rokossovsky looked at Malinen and asked with a smile, "Isn't my acquiescence in allowing Misha to use the captured weapons and equipment to change the troops' equipment? Isn't it the greatest help to them? The troops With better weapons, combat effectiveness can be effectively improved."

Hearing what Rokossovsky said, Malinin suddenly realized why someone sued, saying that Misha had used the seized supplies to change clothes for hundreds of officers and soldiers in the company, but the commander pretended not to know, it turned out to be the In order to improve the combat effectiveness of Istra Company, so that they can be used in important battles.

When Lin Hua led three rows of soldiers past the machine gun position, he saw that the machine gunners had stopped their long-range fire suppression on the German army for fear of accidental injury, and were lying on the ground in a daze. He stopped quickly and shouted at them: "Comrades, don't be in a daze, move your position immediately, and follow me!" After speaking, he continued to charge forward with a submachine gun.

Hearing Lin Hua's order, the machine gunners got up from the ground one after another. The machine gunner held a machine gun with an ammunition belt, and rushed forward behind Lin Huaer and others; after the assistant shooters packed the ammunition, they followed closely behind with heavy ammunition boxes.

After a row and two rows of soldiers rushed into the first trench, they quickly cleared the enemies here, and continued to develop in depth through the criss-cross traffic trenches.

The German commander did not expect the Soviet army to rush into his position so quickly, and quickly called his commander for help: "Mr. Colonel, the Russians have rushed into our trenches, and I request your support."

After listening to the colonel, he was silent for a moment, then asked: "Captain, how many troops do the Russians have?"

"There is at least one regiment." The German captain quickly replied: "Not only half of them are equipped with submachine guns, but also dozens of machine guns. The firepower is so powerful that we can't even hold on."

The colonel didn't know that when the captain reported the situation, he greatly exaggerated the strength and equipment of the Soviet army. He really thought that the Soviet army had assembled a large number of troops and launched an attack on the position on the Lama River. He frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Captain, I am also being attacked by the Russians now, and I cannot deploy troops to support you. Well, in five minutes, I will let the artillery shell the first trench , you withdraw all your people to the back, so as not to be accidentally injured by the artillery fire! Do you understand?"

"Understood, Mr. Colonel." Although he didn't get the reinforcements he wanted, the German captain was satisfied with the artillery support. He quickly called the messenger: "Go and send the order immediately. In five minutes, all Everyone retreated to the trenches behind."

The first row and the second row were not familiar with the terrain of the position and were stubbornly blocked by the German army, so they could not move forward quickly at all. As soon as Lin Hua entered the first trench with three rows of soldiers, German artillery shells roared towards him. Lin Hua was knocked down by the air wave of the explosion, and before he could react, the soil lifted up by the air wave buried him tightly.

After an unknown period of time, Lin Hua, who was stunned, woke up. He tried very hard to get his head out of the soil, but the heavy soil on his back made him unable to move at all. Just when he was so suffocated that his eyes were full of stars, he suddenly felt a light on his back, and then several hands grabbed his limbs, dragging himself out of the soil like dragging a sack full of goods.

Although his whole body was in pain like a needle prick, at least he was breathing a lot more smoothly, and felt that he was indeed still alive in this world. He panted heavily, smelling the lingering smell of blood mixed with the gunpowder smoke in the air. He felt that someone in front of him was shaking him vigorously, and at the same time kept shouting something, but his ears were buzzing, and he couldn't hear what the other party was saying at all.

Lin Hua raised his hand to wipe off the dirt on his face, and blinked his eyes several times before he saw clearly that the person squatting in front of him was Stepan, the third platoon leader. He was shouting loudly at himself: "Company commander, company commander, are you all right?"

Lin Hua shook his drowsy head, spat out the dirt in his mouth, and then said weakly, "I'm fine, what happened just now?"

"We were bombarded," Stepan said loudly. "We were bombarded by the enemy. Fortunately, the troops entered the trenches in time, otherwise they would have suffered huge casualties."

Lin Hua supported the loose and slightly hot soil with one hand and the trench wall with the other. With the help of Stepan and others, Lin Hua stood up with difficulty and asked, "Where is the first row and the second row?"

Stepan looked left and right, and replied casually: "If I'm not mistaken, one and two rows of fighters are advancing toward the depth of the enemy's position through the communication trench."

Hearing that the soldiers in the first and second platoons had continued to advance, Lin Hua continued to ask, "Where is Savyev?" Before Stepan could answer, he continued, "Let the third platoon continue to attack. I think the communication trenches must be blocked by the enemy's firepower. If you also attack from this direction, you will not be able to advance quickly. You immediately order the soldiers to leave the trenches, advance through the ground between the communication trenches, and destroy the enemy condescendingly."

Seeing the murderous third row of soldiers jumping out of the trench and rushing forward like tigers downhill, Lin Hua suddenly felt that although many soldiers in the third row had never participated in such a cruel battle, no matter the enemy's intensive firepower, Or sacrifice the remains of comrades-in-arms, have had a strong impact on their hearts, so that they have a sense of fear. But after the test of blood and fire, they have gradually adapted to the battlefield environment. The original timidity and fear were gone, replaced by the courage to go forward and the desire to avenge their comrades.
