Arc of Gunfire

Chapter 335 For future victory (Silver update 6/10)

After Wang Zhong rejoined his troops, he decided to retreat to Trinca, a village 20 kilometers away from Yarvik.

Firstly, it is indeed a bit late today, and secondly, I don’t know how many enemy motorized reconnaissance teams are nearby. It is quite dangerous for me to encounter seven or eight vehicles and a hundred guns.

There is no guarantee that the enemy can be caught off guard every time.

When arriving at Trinca, Wang Zhong found that the defenders here were building anti-tank gun positions outside the city.

Wang Zhong pointed to the position and said: "Drive over!"

The driver immediately turned the steering wheel, and the Willys Jeep turned a more than sixty-degree turn and rushed to the side of the gun emplacement.

The major who was commanding the construction of the position immediately saluted Wang Zhong: "General!"

Wang Zhong: "How can you put anti-tank gun positions outside the city?"

The major was shocked: "The artillery position should be placed in a place with a good shooting range. Is this the training I received?"

Wang Zhong shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, you placed the position outside the village. Firstly, it is difficult to hide. You can see your artillery position here from a distance! The enemy's artillery skills are very good. You set up the artillery like this. They're two kilometers away and they're calling your name!

"Can you hit an enemy two kilometers away? No, you can't! Do you have any actual combat experience?"

The major shook his head: "No, general, I am a reserve. You transferred me to the capital before, and then you drove the enemy away from the capital, and I was unable to catch up with the battle."

"Are you blaming the general?" Vasily asked.

"No," the major continued, shaking his head, "How dare I blame the general? I have a cousin in Yebao who is very kind to me. The general rescued them."

Wang Zhong: "According to the setup of your position, your cousins ​​will soon attend your funeral. It's not a big deal if you die, it will kill other soldiers. The previous drills no longer work, I wrote a new defense Zhan Principle, you must study hard!"

Vasily took out a pamphlet and handed it to the major: "You go back and read the new principles written by the general. Now, the general is here, and you can get on-site teaching."

After Vasily finished speaking, Wang Zhong pointed to the village behind and said: "Set the position to the edge of the village instead of outside. Use the low walls, latrines and other messy things on the edge of the village to disguise the position and let the position blend in with these. One body. This has two advantages, you know?”

The major shook his head: "I don't know."

"Try to talk about it!" Wang Zhong has also been in school a lot, and now he is completely in the state of a teacher lecturing.

The major looked at the low wall at the edge of the village and said, "It's relatively hidden?"

"anything else?"

The major thought for a while and said: "It saves time? After all, there is no need to dig tunnels and pile sandbags."

Wang Zhong: "It's easy to move! If you place your position outside the village, you won't be able to run away if the enemy tanks rush up to you. Even if you dig a communication trench, it's difficult for artillery to move in the trench, isn't it?

"You set up the defense line at the edge of the village. As long as the courtyard is opened, you can form a perfect transfer channel, and you can even run with the cannon."

Wang Zhong said and gestured.

The major suddenly realized: "I see, you all should stop! The general said that the defense line should be set up in the village!"

Wang Zhong: "There is no need to dismantle the fortifications that have been repaired outside. You see, this gun emplacement is already in full shape. Just make a square table and add a piece of wood to make it a fake cannon.

"Although it can only waste the enemy's ammunition, it is of some use after all! It may also attract the enemy's artillery fire preparations, greatly reducing our army's casualties."

"You are right." The major nodded repeatedly, "I will definitely reset the position and read your pamphlet when I get back."

"Go ahead."

After Wang Zhong finished speaking, he returned to the jeep and made a gesture: "Drive to the garrison headquarters."

The major enthusiastically pointed the way: "Keep driving along the village road, in the big house opposite the church!"

Wang Zhong waved his hand.

As the jeep drove into the village, Wang Zhong found that all the people in the village were worried.

As soon as the car stopped in front of the headquarters, a woman rushed towards the car.

With quick eyesight and quick hands, Gregory stopped the woman: "What are you doing?"

The woman immediately grabbed Gregory's hand: "I just want to ask the general, can this village be defended? Many broken troops passed by this village, saying that Ant is finished!"

Wang Zhong: "We can hold it, but aunt, you still have to retreat. This may become a battlefield."

"You really need to retreat!"

The woman began to cry: "All my belongings are in this village, especially the house, which has just been built! How can I let it go..."

Wang Zhong: "My home is in Agsukov, which has been occupied for a year. My father and brothers died there. Auntie, who is not sad now? That's why we have to fight hard and destroy Pu The people from Los Angeles are rushing back.”

Woman: "But we have been retreating, haven't we? Won't we retreat this time?"

Wang Zhong hesitated for a moment. Now that the strength of the enemy and ourselves are compared, there is really no guarantee that they will not retreat.

The First Mobile Group Army came to the Suhayaveli Front mainly because it did not want the front to retreat too quickly. It had to be delayed until at least August, so as to ensure that it was already the muddy season when the enemy arrived at the Valdaichu River.

Using the pressure of mud on the enemy's logistics to attack the enemy is a method that is currently unavailable.

Seeing that Wang Zhong didn't answer, the woman was about to speak when Vasily suddenly said: "Do you know who this general is? He is General Rokossov! If he said he would fight back in the future, then he would. If he doesn't stick to it now, that's fine. Forced by the situation, the general couldn't make them move forward last year at Yebao City!"

Wang Zhong: "Okay, now it's true that we can't guarantee that we can completely defend it. There's no need to use my name to bluff people."

The woman was not listening to what Wang Zhong and Vasily said at this time. She looked over the shoulder of Grigory who was blocking the road, looked at Wang Zhong, and exclaimed: "It's you!"

Wang Zhong: "It's me."

The woman quickly wiped away her tears and said, "Of course I believe you. After all, you have arrested more than 40 General Prossen!"

Wang Zhong frowned, what's going on, I killed 40 generals and captured 40, right? If it continues to spread like this, I will single-handedly defeat all General Prossen.

The woman continued: "Even if you retreat, you will only retreat after severely defeating the enemy, right?"

Wang Zhong: "Yes. Don't worry about this. And we are not busy leaving yet. We will fight here until mid-August, or even September!"

"It's been taking so long! Then what do I have to worry about? Apart from the house, I can just take care of other things and transport them later."

Auntie, you need time to transport your belongings!

While the commotion was going on, the commander of the local garrison came out. He was a major general. When he saw Wang Zhong, he immediately saluted: "General, Sergey, the commander of the 401st Provisional Infantry Division, is reporting to you!"

Wang Zhong saluted back: "Why do your artillery set up positions outside the city?"

"Eh? Shouldn't it be? I am following the defense rules..."

Wang Zhong interrupted him: "That's already the old almanac, Vasily."

Vasily took out a small book and gave it to the major general: "This is the work of the general. Take it. Don't read it. Wait for the general to practice it for you. Generally, you have to go to Suvoro after having achieved military exploits and been promoted. Only by studying at Husband Military Academy can you get this kind of treatment!”

Wang Zhong: "Vasily, stop saying a few words and no one will think you are mute."

"Yes." Vasily closed his mouth.

Wang Zhong: "You can go back and read this book again. According to the results of my personal investigation, the enemy's new tanks may be only a little more than ten kilometers away from here."

"Ah?" Major General and Master were surprised: "Did the enemy come so fast?"

Wang Zhong: "It's already slower than last year. After all, this year my position is a little more reliable and no longer like tofu - I mean, butter. In addition, our air force should have bombed the enemy, which has a certain hysteresis effect." I don’t think the enemy will arrive until tomorrow.”

In fact, it couldn't be reached, but Wang Zhong didn't know.

Wang Zhong: "Today you can build fortifications overnight. Also, let me make a phone call, and my troops will come overnight."

Wang Zhong asked Pavlov to form an advance team with the requirement that they all board the train within one day and fill the allocated wagons.

So the advance team should be almost there today, and they can move to Trinca to participate in the defensive battle.

The main body of the task force is a battalion of whirlpools, with a bunch of other chaotic coordination units.

Tomorrow I will test how effective the vortex is in fighting tigers.

The commander of the 401st Division quickly made a gesture of invitation: "If you want to make a call, please come this way!"

Wang Zhong nodded and walked into the headquarters, and Vasily followed immediately.

Gregory made sure that the woman had no intention of continuing to rush towards Wang Zhong, and then walked backwards into the headquarters.

Late night on July 11th, Jarvik, pub.

Even when the enemy was about to rush over, Ant's tavern was still doing business.

Rather, it is precisely because the enemy is approaching so fiercely that everyone needs the tavern even more.

The storytellers who were usually active in the tavern were now listeners, listening to a few old workers at the train station.

"Let me tell you, the troops of General Rokossov's First Mobile Army that were unloading their trucks today are well equipped! They all use a brand-new submachine gun. They shoot at the sky with their eyes closed, and the bullets will They will hit each other automatically!" said an old worker.

Immediately an old man next to him echoed: "Yes, yes, they are my pigeons, the fastest flying ones, but they were killed in one fell swoop!"

At this time, someone said: "I heard that the Plosans have invested in new tanks. No matter how powerful the guns are, can they still fight tanks?"

"Don't you understand? General Rokossov's troops are also equipped with a new type of tank! That tank has no head, so what do you call it? The barrel is so thick! I specially went to show it!"

At this time, the accountant at the station suddenly said: "You guys don't understand what is the most valuable. Let me tell you, the general's troops have many antennas! This is the most powerful! Don't you believe it? Look at the 20th Guards Tank Brigade! Only one of their four vehicles has an antenna!

"The general's troops are all equipped with antennas! Every vehicle has one! Even in the car, there must be someone carrying an antenna!

"This army is much more powerful than ordinary troops! Today they marched out in great force. I bet the battle will be won soon!"

At this time, the tavern owner raised his glass: "I'll treat everyone to a drink today, for the sake of future victory!"

At this time, the interest of everyone in the tavern was aroused, and they all shouted: "For future victory!"
