Humans in World War II: Army Defeated by Beacon Fire

Chapter 29 Mobilize before the war, go deep into the hinterland, would rather die than retreat and become a traitor

Mason waved and led the soldiers to continue deeper.

Many soldiers began to advance with a half-track armored vehicle as the center.

The half-track armored personnel carrier uses its defense card perspective to output firepower and strike.

After Mason and others set off, successive troops also arrived.

Bobby, Tom, Howard, Bill and others came one after another.

After seeing everyone arrive, Edward took out the tractor factory map and started issuing new combat instructions.

"Currently, Mason's troops have begun to penetrate deeper from here. Bobby, take your people from Mason's line and start eradicating the enemy forces on Mason's left flank from this node. Do you understand?"

The pencil in Edward's hand drew a line on the map and drew an arrow opening.

"Understood boss!"

Bobby nodded immediately and then motioned to the soldiers around him to record the map and then started/
"Bill, it's the same route, except you start from the right wing to eliminate the enemy attack on the right side of Mason's department."

Edward added a flourish and marked an arrow opening on the other side.

"Okay boss, I'll leave now!"

After their tasks were arranged, the remaining two people, Tom and Howard, acted as a reserve team with their respective personnel.

Mainly to support Mason, followed by the left and right sides.

After putting away the map, Edward looked at the tractor factory in front of him, which looked like frost.

This place will always be a pain for him.

So for this place, Edward wanted to destroy everything here.

The various ministries began to advance. Even though the weather was already [-] degrees below zero, the German army continued to attack.

Even if the tanks cannot be used, there are still infantry. The combat effectiveness of the infantry depends on who has stronger perseverance.

"Brothers? Have you had enough of this damn hell? If we don't win here today, then we will be the losers! Do you know the end? We will be thrown into Siberia at minus [-] degrees Celsius like pigs. Digging potatoes, planting potatoes, there is no dignity, only humiliation until death. I dare not say what I am fighting for now. What I want to say is that I am fighting for myself. Edward the boss said that fighting is for survival. We just want to get home alive, so we are going to take down this damn factory and completely control the entire Stalingrad in our hands."

Mason looked at the soldiers lined up and lectured before the battle.

The front is the war zone, and now it's the mobilization activities of both sides.

Then it's time to get into the meat grinder.

This is also a stage of rapid growth for commanders at all levels.

Mason, a big-headed soldier, has been following Edward until now. From a big-headed soldier to an exempt soldier, he later became a superior exempt soldier.

Now he has become a corporal officer candidate, and his combat command has exceeded the strength of a platoon leader.

Currently, it has 63 people in its hands, which is almost half a company.

But commanding these forces in Mason's hands is trivial.

After the mobilization, Mason convened each team to start assigning tasks.

When there are a large number of people, arrangements need to be made. Even the team is divided into two assault groups.

As the platoon leader, Mason took the lead and led the charge.

The vanguard was attacked by Soviet machine guns as soon as they showed up.

Dense bullets flew like a metal storm.

Every bullet is like a sickle wielded by the god of death, and whoever is hit will be reaped.

The vanguards were not fools, and they quickly found cover the moment the machine gun fired.

Only one unlucky recruit was hit and fell to the ground without moving.

The others found cover and began to fight back.

The soldiers in the rear row immediately lay down or found cover to fight back.

Even if you think about it, there is no way to distance yourself. This is not an empty wilderness. "Sir, two Soviet Maxim heavy machine guns and several DP light machine guns were found ahead. The number of people is estimated to be around 30 people. No artillery has been found yet."

The soldier rushed over and reported the situation ahead.

"The first and second squads formed a feint attack on the front of the shield wall, the third and fourth squads assaulted on both sides, the fifth squadron responded, and the sixth squadron prepared for the artillery attack."

Fight under Mason's command.

The soldiers of Class [-] and Class [-] quickly began to form a shield wall under the leadership of the veterans to conduct a fierce feint attack. At the same time, they also sealed the smoke to make the opponent think that the front was preparing for a fierce attack. Almost all the heavy firepower was attracted to the front.

If the Soviet army began to spread its firepower to the left and right sides, the frontal feint attack would immediately switch to a frontal attack.

"Suppressive fire, don't let these damn German devils get close"

The Soviet second lieutenant roared.

The Bobosha in his hand started shooting directly, with more than a dozen bullets flying out every second.

Ding, ding, ding, the bullets hit the shield array with crackling sounds and sparks flying.

The Bobosha submachine gun is a 7.62mm pistol cartridge.

Therefore, the penetration power is also limited. The caliber of the German 9mm bullet is much larger than the Soviet 7.62mm caliber.

However, the rate of fire is far less fast than the Soviet Bobosha, and each has its own strengths and weaknesses.

Anyway, it's all for the convenience of others. The German army likes to use the Bobo sand to attack, while the Soviet army likes to use the German MP38/40 submachine gun to attack.

One has a fast rate of fire but the range of the ballistics is too large, and the other has a slow rate of fire but a very stable ballistics and can hit wherever you want at 200 meters.

Win by quantity and win by technology.

The Soviet second lieutenant, who changed a magazine, continued to shoot at the first and second squads of the Mason Division in the smoke.

"Second Lieutenant, if we bring a mortar here, how dare the Germans be so arrogant in front of us!"

One of the corporals said with an indignant look.

"You don't have to ask, where can we get artillery now? If we can hold on until now, the artillery will have been destroyed by the German devils."

The Soviet second lieutenant sighed helplessly and cursed.

"Aren't there two T34 turrets behind us?"

The Soviet corporal reminded.

"Then what? Are you going to take Lieutenant Colonel Rulkov's bullets?"

The second lieutenant responded angrily to the corporal.

After listening to the second lieutenant's words, the corporal couldn't help but shudder.

Anyone killed by Lieutenant Colonel Rulkov will be defined as a traitor.

This means that the whole family will have to be untouchables on the farm for the rest of their lives.

Thinking of this, the corporal would rather die here than retreat and die in the hands of Lieutenant Colonel Rulkov.

The other party was a senior officer sent by the Soviet Army Security Committee, with a military rank comparable to that of a major general.

Even the Army Major General was not on an equal footing with him, the other was half a head taller.

There is no way that the Security Committee is all headed by Stamford's cronies.

After the entire Security Council was purged, it was now only loyal to Stamford.

It's like the other party is just a sixth-rank official from the Jinyiwei Hundred Households.

And you, a fourth-grade prefect, can only tremble in front of the other party.

There is no way that someone who is a confidant of the big leader can make you disappear with just one sentence. How dare you argue with him?

Unless the military rank is two ranks higher than the opponent, maybe you don't care, but you don't dare to mess around.
