Chapter eight hundred and seventeen individual weapons
That night, the First Infantry Regiment set out under the leadership of Colonel Slein and Qin Chuan.
At this time, the focus of the First Infantry Regiment is of course not the First Infantry Regiment, but the ME63 they carry with them.
For this reason, Qin Chuan also reorganized the troops... In fact, Qin Chuan was not willing to do this, because after reorganization, it would disrupt the tacit understanding reached during the 1st Infantry Regiment's pursuit and surrender training and combat.
The problem is that the team members suitable for being operators are always inconsistent, that is, there is sometimes no operator in one rank, while in some ranks, there are five, six or even more operators.
In addition, due to combat reduction and supplementary reasons, some people rank a small number of people and could not make up three ME63 groups (8 people per group), while others rank a too many people.
So Qin Chuan had no choice but to rest on a small scale for the troops, and to replenish what should be transferred, and then perform several training sessions to make them familiar with their new comrades.
Fortunately, the German soldiers did it quickly. One of the reasons is that they were originally soldiers from the same regiment and were not unfamiliar with each other, and the training they received was basically the same. Except for the recruits who had only added to the army not long ago, everyone can adapt quickly.
The traffic on the front line was indeed as General Hort thought. Although the road was under the control of the German army, it was not peaceful... There were shells that kept blowing towards the road in the distance, one shot was not one shot. Although the hit rate was very low, there were still several shells that occasionally hit the center of the road.
This made the car stagger all the way, and sometimes it had to stop and look for another way to go around, because some of the craters were too big and could not be repaired for a while.
Occasionally, dense gunfire sounds can be heard in the car, and sometimes several bullets will be fired on the canvas... It was the Soviet army who took advantage of the dark night to harass the German army's logistics, but because the German army controlled the nearby highlands and pulled the barbed wire to bury landmines, and then installed searchlights to suppress them with fire, making these harassments unable to effectively threaten normal transportation.
However, I still heard that someone was shot. Because Qin Chuan received a report, two soldiers from the Second Company were hit by stray bullets, one was killed on the spot and the other was slightly injured.
Coincidentally, these two were still operators, which instantly made a ME63 team use the two ME63s carried by this group as backup ammunition.
The whole journey was only 11 kilometers, and the troops marched for more than an hour before they arrived.
After arriving at the front line, it was even more lively. The shells exploded from time to time. From the whistling sound, you can clearly distinguish that some of them were mortars and some howitzers, which means that these shells were completely fired randomly by the Soviets without targets... The German army also did this at night, with the purpose of making the other party unable to sleep well, and maybe any shell could blow up the cat and the dead mouse.
"College, Lieutenant Colonel!" A staff officer brought several guards to his waist and crawled out of the darkness. He reminded Colonel Slein and Qin Chuan: "You'd better order your subordinates to move the equipment down immediately and drive the car elsewhere, otherwise it will be covered by Soviet artillery fire soon!"
In fact, there is no need for a staff reminder that the soldiers of the First Infantry Regiment are already doing this... They are all veterans, knowing when to do something, and they cannot delay at all.
The staff officer took Colonel Slein and Qin Chuan into the traffic trench, and then turned left and right in the traffic trench... After a while, Qin Chuan, who had a weak sense of direction, became a little dizzy.
In fact, Qin Chuan cannot be blamed. If you are walking on the ground, it would be fine. The things in the trenches are almost the same, except for soil, and the whole thing is like a maze. Occasionally, you will see a few wounded soldiers, but they will be quickly transferred to other places and cannot be used as a reference for remembering the terrain, not to mention that this is still at night.
Therefore, the first thing a soldier who has just entered the battlefield needs to do is to be familiar with the trenches, otherwise he will not know where to run even if he escapes.
The two were taken into a civil fortification. When they smelled the odor inside, they knew that the fortification was left by the Soviets... The Germans generally pay more hygienic. They could not make the fortification so smelly in one or two days and also had a vodka smell.
After passing through several black cloths that were covered outside, we saw the dim light of the kerosene lamp inside. General Streck and Colonel Albridge were discussing something in front of the map.
Seeing Colonel Slain and Qin Chuan come in, General Strek waved to the two of them to approach, and then asked worriedly: "I'm glad you arrived in time, Colonel, Lieutenant Colonel. I asked them for help... In fact, General Lauchet asked for reinforcements. He told me that our reinforcements were the 1st Infantry Regiment?"
General Streck didn't know the existence of ME63, so he looked full of doubt when he said these words.
"Yes, General!" Qin Chuan replied.
"This is ridiculous!" General Streck said: "Sorry, Lieutenant Colonel... I am not disdainful of the 1st Infantry Regiment, but how can they do this? The 1st Infantry Regiment was originally my unit, but they had my troops to perfunctorily treat me!"
Colonel Albridge explained helplessly: "Lieutenant Colonel, the enemy has transferred a tank army to intercept us. This is an elite tank unit with much more T34 tanks than us!"
"I know, colonel!" Qin Chuan replied.
"So, we're here!" Colonel Slain replied.
"But..." Colonel Albridge said in confusion: "What we need is tanks, troops!"
Colonel Slain shrugged and said, "Lt. Col. will explain this matter!"
General Streck and Colonel Albridge turned their doubtful eyes to Qin Chuan.
"So that!" Qin Chuan explained: "We have a new weapon that can destroy enemy tanks at a distance of one thousand meters or even more!"
General Streck and Colonel Albridge looked at each other, but the two still didn't understand.
"This is not a new weapon, Lieutenant Colonel!" said Colonel Albridge. "We have a lot of equipment that can destroy enemy tanks at a distance of one thousand meters or even more, such as 88 guns..."
"No, colonel!" Qin Chuan said: "I'm talking about individual weapons!"
"Single weapon?!"
General Streck and Colonel Albridge exclaimed.
