Humans in World War II: Army Defeated by Beacon Fire

Chapter 15: The escaped underground rat, the new mission of the 985th Regiment, the tractor factory

Tob, holding the Mauser 98K, roared and rushed towards the Soviet commando.

One of the Soviet commandos did not expect that someone from the German army would rush over in a daze.

It wasn't until the bayonet penetrated his body that I finally believed that someone was really rushing forward like crazy.

"Ah ah……"

Taub relied on his body advantage to rush towards the opponent and push him directly into the corner.

The bayonet in his hand stabbed the opponent again and again until he died.

"Tob, Tob, well, he's dead."

After defeating the Soviet commando, Mason and others shouted to stop Tob who kept punching the Soviet soldiers.

When Tob came back to his senses, he was so frightened that he stumbled and fell.

Looking at the whipped corpse in front of him, the whole person was in a state of confusion.

This is probably the first time Tob has killed someone.

The previous positional battles were not considered killings. They were shooting downwards with almost closed eyes.

It is not clear whether he was beaten to death or not, and when he started throwing bricks and blocks later, he was not killed.

Even if the other party was hit by a brick and died, at least Tob would not feel it at all.

This assassination was the first time he had personally killed a Soviet soldier face to face.

This was also thanks to the darkness in the sewer and the fact that the Soviet commando soldiers basically focused their eyes on the German troops opposite.

Unexpectedly, a big black rat rushed towards me.

He came up and gave him a bayonet, and the huge force pushed him directly against the wall.

I guess I never figured out how this big black rat rushed over until I died.

After killing two Soviet commando soldiers blocking the road, they continued to move forward.

Since the people on the opposite side are all elites, those dispatched are basically veterans.

Tob, who came back alive from the highlands, was actually a veteran, but unfortunately he was as timid as a mouse, with the body of an ox but the heart of a mouse.

Unless he is forced, he will not know that a rat bites someone in a hurry.

After a while of comfort, Tuobu also regained his composure, and at the same time he felt that he could do it.

So he continued to be the vanguard. In fact, Mason no longer needed him to continue to be the vanguard.

But Tob still insisted on being the vanguard.

If you need to go to the other side of the stinky sewer, you have to pass through the sewage.

Tob was the first to jump in. As a result, two cluster bombs were entangled in the water and exploded.

In just an instant, a 180-pound fat man was torn apart in the blink of an eye, with his flesh and blood splattering all over the wall.

"Damn bastards, vile rats!"

Mason looked at Tob who was blown into pieces and cursed angrily.

Edward had already made arrangements for Tob, as long as this guy passed the level of fear.

This time, he was the one fighting to step forward. Maybe his fate was like this sometimes.

The sound of explosions signaled movement, and the Soviet army also understood that the German troops behind them were still pursuing them.

In one of the passages, which was as big as the mouth of a cylinder, the Soviet army crawled through.

Mason searched around and found nothing.

It's as if these guys disappeared out of thin air, and you can't find them even if you want to look for them.

There are seven or eight of these passages alone, and they are all in vain.

"Withdraw, place additional bombs to destroy these openings."

At the command, the sound of explosions came from the ground.

And the Soviet commandos came out from another place.

"Check the number of people"

Lieutenant Valentine motioned to Sergeant Cheselski beside him.

The sergeant immediately counted them. Six people were lost this time, which was a big blow to the team.But these are still acceptable.

After returning to the highlands, Lieutenant Valentine received a new mission.

Mason, who returned from the sewer, also brought people back to the station.

Everyone in the house was still warming themselves by the fire.

Mason walked in through the thick snow.

"You're back. Are there any casualties?"

Edward motioned for Mason to come over and warm himself by the fire.

"That boy Tob was blown up."

Mason spoke.

"This is life, don't worry about it too much, drink some hot water."

Edward sighed helplessly, then picked up the water glass and handed it to Mason.

"These guys still have some skills, and they haven't engaged in large-scale battles, but just relying on their skills, they are stronger than ordinary people."

Mason took a sip of water and continued.

"The commando team is more difficult to deal with than the punishment camp. We should not be careless next time we encounter it. However, we have sufficient supplies, and there is no need to conduct a large-scale search."

I found a lot of white fabric and cut it into camouflage cloth.

A square of white fabric is buckled directly inside the helmet and just wraps the helmet.

If you lie down and don't move, you won't be able to spot a head here at all from a distance.

In addition, the camouflage net on the body is easy to make, just bundle it directly on the body.

Just help each other tie them up together. This is much more concealed than the limestone military uniforms on your body.

In addition, some blankets, scarves, gloves, quilts and other winter supplies collected were arranged.

After nightfall, the entire temperature plummeted to about minus three degrees.

This is just an appetizer for Stalingrad, and there will be times of minus [-] degrees Celsius later.

The Volga River can be so cold that tanks can run across it without any problem.

There were a lot of stones piled up next to the oil drum that Edward had obtained.

A large amount of water is poured on it every two hours, and the steam is constantly churning.

This is like the volcanic rock in a sauna. Just pour water on it to produce a lot of hot steam.

Although these ordinary stones are not as durable as volcanic rocks, they can still be used.

There is no shortage of stones here, so a large amount of hot steam begins to fill the factory.

There are only two vents to keep the air flowing, and the rest are blocked.

This is a specially designed sauna room. The temperature inside is about [-] or [-] degrees Celsius, which is very different from the minus [-] degrees outside.

Soldiers on duty outside can go in and have a good sauna and then come out to take a hot bath, which is refreshing from top to bottom.

Edward values ​​​​the security of life more than anyone else.

Fighting continues to be fierce near the Mamayev Heights and in the factory belt of the northern city.

Among them, the battles of the Red October Factory, the Tractor Factory and the Barricade Factory are known throughout the world.

The German army was unable to capture these places for a long time, which led to the final defeat of the battle.

After a week's rest, the 985th Regiment began a new mission.

In the tractor factory, the Soviet tanks are still being hammered and hammered inside. They go out to fight immediately after they are repaired, and they go out to fight immediately after they are produced.

Many tanks are not even equipped with on-board machine guns. They only have artillery that can fire, and they go into battle without even painting.

Bare black rust covered the whole body, and the welding scars were clearly visible.

"This time our target is the tractor factory. I can tell with my fingers that this will be a fierce battle."

Edward said expressionlessly, he was just a second lieutenant and had no decision-making power.

Some just obey orders and try their best to protect their brothers on the battlefield.
