At the same time that Kaze called for artillery fire to attack the enemy, in the temporary command post of position 19, the Aleutian company commander who was chatting with Zoya also stood up with a frown.
"Something is wrong." Aleutian walked around the table, "Zoya, call Vanya."
Hearing this, Zoya immediately walked to the command post export.
"And our postman Victor," the Aleutian captain added.
Zoya waved her hand, and less than five minutes after getting out of the command post, she called Vanya and the sleepy Wei Ran back.
After these few days of hard contact, Wei Ran was somewhat happy to have managed to get into the command of Position 19, but he immediately realized after hearing the content of the surveillance relayed by Captain Aleutian. Not good.
"To put it simply, Kaze just directed our artillery to hit a high-value German target?"
Wei Ran asked uneasily what everyone was worried about. question, "So this is a German conspiracy? According to the information we have received before, the main force of the Germans has been piled up on the east side of the army group position, but there are still targets worthy of artillery strike nearby, so... "
"So our previous guess was correct," Vanya said with a gloomy face, "Maybe our place is where they really want to tear apart."
"Notice. Everyone, continue to expand the trenches and collect as much weapons and ammunition as possible. Our logistics supplies are going to support the current frontal battlefield. The supplies left by the Germans on the battlefield are our only source of supplies." After the company commander finished speaking, he looked at Zoya, "It's time for you to leave here, I don't want to..."
Zoya didn't even wait for the Aleutian Captain to finish speaking, and reached out her hand to gently cover his lips. mouth, "I am a war reporter, and a soldier."
"Comrade Zoya"
Wei Ran said before the Aleutian commander could speak, "If you can, Can you help me deliver the letter to the rear? The only person we all trust here is you."
Captain Aleutian's eyes lit up, Wei Ran's excuse was quite good. But Zoya simply shook her head, "I have a job as a reporter, and you have a job as a postman. We just have to do our own jobs."
Looking at those who had already left first Zoya, the three men in the command post looked at each other, and finally shook their heads helplessly.
Under the emergency mobilization of Aleutians and Vanyas, all the soldiers in Position 19 were organized. Except for a small number of people who were lying on the trenches to continue to guard, more than half of the remaining people were Trench digging is intensifying.
The other half, led by Vanya, crossed the barbed wire fence and, like the swarms of crows on the smelly battlefield, plundered the corpses of Germans and the remains of tanks. Various weapons available.
This is also the first time that Weiran has truly left the trenches of Position 19.Looking around, this wasteland full of shell craters was covered with corpses, and there were even some injured German soldiers who were still making faint calls for help.
"Pfft"
Vanya neatly stabbed the bayonet mounted on the rifle into the chest of a still alive German soldier, then turned the butt of the rifle back and forth to smash it. After feeling the opponent's heart, he pulled out the bayonet, and then whispered, "When you encounter someone who is not dead, you must first kill the opponent and then collect supplies. Unless it is an emergency, try not to shoot."
Seeing the people hiding behind the wreckage of a tank nodding, Vanya continued, "In groups of three, we focus on collecting machine guns and machine gun ammunition, followed by grenades, and finally submachine guns and bullets. Our collection range is limited to the barbed wire fence. 50 meters away, after collecting those just now, move the shells that may be in the tank again. They are still useful." Seeing everyone shaking their heads, Vanya said. He immediately waved his hand and said, "Hurry up!"
Everyone, including Wei Ran, shouted in unison, hunched over and cautiously searching for useful supplies on the wet and slippery battlefield.
Following two soldiers who had heard his stories, pulling a small sledge improvised from shell shells, wooden sticks and canvas, the three of them carefully searched for every corpse on the smelly battlefield. , and took from it any weapons worth taking away and threw them into the sledge.
"Good luck, look what I found!"
One of the young soldiers, who looked to be no more than 20 years old, pulled out a P38 pistol from the waist of a corpse , there was even a piece of rotten intestine hanging from the cowhide holster of this pistol.
"This is the good stuff"
Another soldier took out a small bottle of wine from a corpse's bag, smashed the bottle open with a bayonet, and raised his head to put it in his mouth He took a big sip from the wine and then handed it to Wei Ran, "Victor, have a sip!"
"Thank you"
Wei Ran took the wine and followed the other's example. He poured a big mouthful into his mouth, and then handed it to the soldier who had just found the pistol.
Without participating in the wine sharing, Wei Ran walked over to a corpse and was about to pull out the two grenades from the opponent's waist. Unexpectedly, his wrist was cut off by the "corpse". His left hand was held.
I subconsciously wanted to pull out the bayonet from my belt, but I didn't expect that the other party took the initiative to let go, moved his arm with difficulty, and pointed to his chest tremblingly.
Turning to look at the two companions who were drinking, Wei Ran hesitated for a moment, and finally, at the other's signal, he unbuttoned his shirt and took out a blood-stained shirt from his inner pocket. Silver cigarette case.
Looking at the pleading eyes on the other person’s face, Wei Ran opened the cigarette case, took out a cigarette and stuffed it into the other person’s mouth. Unexpectedly, the dying German soldier shook his head inconspicuously. Still staring at the cigarette case in the former's hand.
It was only then that Wei Ran noticed that at the bottom of the silver cigarette box,There seems to be a photo of someone being pressed by a cigarette.
I carefully took out the photo and took a look. In the photo, I saw a handsome young man holding a wolf dog. In his arms was a beautiful woman with a happy face, and in this woman’s arms, There is also an infant.
Handing the photo into the other person's hand, the German soldier's eyes softened a lot, and he opened his mouth and said something silently to Wei Ran.
Seeing Wei Ran nod his head as if he understood what he said, the German soldier struggled to squeeze out an ugly smile covered in blood. As the photo in his hand slipped, his eyes gradually lost sight. Awesome.
"Another child has lost his father"
Wei Ran felt a little boring, so he put the silver cigarette case into his pocket and numbly put it on the other party's waist. He took off the two long-handled grenades that were also stained with blood and sent them to a simple sledge not far away.
