Alsim expected any opponent he might encounter. Even encountering a German tank on the platform was acceptable. After all, the Skeleton Division bastards came to the train station to receive supplies and equipment and took some away.
Tanks are all normal.
But Alsim really didn't expect that he would actually encounter a super monster on the platform that was countless times more terrifying than any tank currently in service by the Germans. The tank that was lying on the railway track was already trembling slowly.
Huge and bulky, with a dragon-like body, it has more visual impact than any heavy tank.
The crucial information about the train robbery was perfect and accurate, but there was a fatal error in this most critical place!
The vehicle that the Germans used to transport the baby was not an ordinary train at all. It was a fucking armored train that was armed to the teeth, with armor and cannons all over it!
"Everyone, get down!"
At the moment when he saw that almost all the fire weapons on the armored train were pointing towards the waiting hall, Alsim, who had a buzz in his head, almost didn't even think about it, let alone
Without the slightest hesitation, he yelled at his comrades around him who had not had time to follow him and came to the window sill.
Don't ask why, just do as the company commander says.
To serve in the combat engineer battalion of Stalin's 1st Guards Tank Division, you must at least be a soldier who has honed his skills in several other ordinary infantry battalions and survived several bloody battles.
A strong person can be successfully selected only after his own strength has passed the assessment.
In other words, there are no recruits in the strict sense in the combat engineer battalion. The most inferior soldiers are the best ones selected from several other infantry battalions, not to mention Xiang Alsim who was formed from the combat engineer battalion.
From the beginning, he was already a veteran who held the important position of company commander.
Although the number is small, they are definitely elite enough and powerful enough, and can play an important role in determining victory or defeat at critical moments. This was Malashenko's original intention to set up a combat engineer battalion, and it has been implemented to this day.
The moment they heard Alsim's loud roar, the surrounding soldiers who were closest to the window sill basically didn't even think about it, let alone the reason. They followed the order to lie down on the ground first, regardless of the reason.
At the moment Alsim and the soldiers closest to the window fell to the ground, there was a burst of scorching tongues of fire that was so hot that even the scalp could feel the scalding temperature, followed by the sudden chaotic sound of fire.
Then comes.
Dong dong dong——
Da da da--
Boom boom boom——
No one knows exactly which weapons caused this chaotic sound of firing. All they know is that it must be a large number of various and complex weapons of different calibers and models, which can only make a huge noise when they fire together.
In the view of Alsim, who has understood the truth, this just corresponds to the fact that the armored train is densely covered with all kinds of long guns and short cannon weapons as numerous as hedgehog thorns.
From what I had just looked at, standing on the commanding heights and basically having an unobstructed view of the entire platform, this armored train was the only one on the huge train platform that could make such a big noise.
You can't expect those crippled SS remnants who jumped off the building to suddenly make such a big noise. It's neither scientific nor realistic. It's more like eating a peach than eating a peach.
crackling——
Whoosh——
Bang bang——
Not only were there deathly bullets flying overhead and around, but there were also all kinds of cement slag and brick fragments flying in all directions due to the energy impact, hitting the back of the hand and face, which was really painful.
"Withdraw! Everyone, withdraw quickly! The Germans have an armored train parked on the platform. Our firepower cannot deal with this thing! Everyone, withdraw quickly, this place is going to be destroyed!"
Compared with the waiting hall on the first floor, the waiting stand on the second floor has an extremely fatal "shortcoming". This is not a shortcoming in most cases, but now it has become a shortcoming that is absolutely fatal.
The entire second-floor grandstand appears on the station design drawings as a suspended platform supported only by two load-bearing columns. Alsim, who had seen the station design drawings in advance for the convenience of fighting, knew this by heart.
Never forget.
The battle between the infantry is not enough to break the platform load-bearing pillar that is thick enough for three people to hide behind and use it as a solid bunker. Even if the iron fist is directly aimed at it, it will not work. If you don't hit it, it will be seven or eight.
If more than a dozen rounds of iron fists hit the same location, it would be impossible to break the pillar. But don't underestimate the care and quality of the Russian people in building buildings.
But the key point of the problem is that the current battle has deteriorated sharply to the point where it can be said that it is not a battle between infantry at all. The huge armored train lying under the platform and on the rails has exceeded everyone's expectations and is simply impossible.
Huge variables are expected.
The load-bearing pillars of the platform are constantly bombarded by infantry weapons, and the armored train can do it. Just from what Alsim saw, there were more than seven or eight tank turrets all over its body.
The high-kinetic energy armor-piercing projectiles fired by the tank's main gun are absolutely enough to break the load-bearing columns of the platform. If the caliber is large enough and a full-caliber armor-piercing projectile is used, it may even be over after one or two rounds, causing the wall to collapse and the house to collapse.
Knowing that staying on the waiting stand on the second floor was tantamount to waiting for death, Alsim crawled all the way from the window to a relatively safe distance, staggering despite the blazing rain of fire that was still coming from behind him.
He stood up, and the two soldiers beside him who stood up a step ahead of him at a relatively safe distance immediately came over to protect him.
"Comrade Company Commander, this way! Get out quickly!"
The soldiers did not forget to protect their company commander. This is one of the responsibilities that a soldier must fulfill on the battlefield.
Alsim, who had no time to say anything else, raised his hand to indicate that he was not injured and did not need help. Then without saying a word, he picked up the AK in his hand and immediately followed the soldiers in front of him and ran towards the stairs and corridor, preparing to go downstairs.
That is to say, in the process of running all the way, the intensive sound of fire coming from the direction of the platform outside the waiting hall became louder and louder, becoming more and more deafening. It felt as if the person who heard the sound had already flown there.
There are clouds in the sky, but God is just about to give out a thunderstorm today, and there happens to be crazy lightning and thunder.
"Sukka! This armored train is not ordinary, it is definitely a heavy armored train! We are in big trouble now!"
