Reznov told Xie Yuan the origin of their grudge: "When Hans' army launched a general offensive, he and his henchman Kravchenko abandoned us and left us desperate to die."
He looked around at the brothers around him, while Xie Yuan glanced back at the car next door, where Dragovich and Kravchenko were sitting. Although the engine of the truck was loud enough, the two officers could not face each other. Change color...
Well, even though they kept a cool expression on their face, I don’t know if they heard Reznov’s... story narration.
"They promised to bring reinforcements, but in the end they did not deliver." Reznov said with anger and worry on his face when talking about this matter, "Dragovich and Kravchenko are opportunists... too. The people behind this...we can't trust them, Dmitri."
"If you don't say this dirty stuff, you might be able to believe them, but it's too late now! Maybe there will be some bad puddle that will kill us later!" Xie Yuan, who was complaining in his heart, looked at Reznov with a look of helplessness, but All he could do was sigh.
But these two are so lucky! In other words, the backend was really powerful. You must know that Government Order No. 227 had just been promulgated at that time, and any behavior deemed to be an escape would be punished by death.
However, this order is mainly aimed at small soldiers and lieutenant-level officers. For the senior leaders of the front army, it means that they will be beaten down by Comrade Steel if they lose the battle or advocate retreat.
But for middle-level officers up to the major general level... this order seems very spiritual. After all, during the war, it was common for them to deliberately give up part of their troops to die on the Eastern Front for tactical needs.
The high command can't say anything more. Mao Zi has this tradition and habit. During World War II, there had always been a tradition in Mao Zi’s army that officers and soldiers were two classes.
Both sides dislike each other, so both sides probably have their own reasons for the feud between Reznov and Dragovich during their soldier days. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Reznov, who had a burning heart, to be able to bring down Dragovich for so long.
But in terms of position, Xie Yuan could only support Reznov unconditionally.
Some distance away from the ship, the Hans set up a base here. It has been five months since the mainland surrendered, but this lone army still intends to resist... It may also be Dragovich and the others. They came with the intention of starting a fight and refused to accept the reason for surrender.
Anyway, when Xie Yuan got out of the car, the "rumbling" sound of shelling just stopped. The first thing Xie Yuan did under Dragovich's order was to raise his gun and lead his men to attack!
"Chug tug, tug tug tug, tug tug tug" Xie Yuan raised his charge and swept away a group of people who rushed towards him and shot at him, and then continued to charge.
He had already passed through several warehouses and cleared away the enemies who rushed out to fight back. There were also enemies who timidly put down their guns and prepared to surrender after seeing their companions being beaten.
But Reznov, who had been following closely, saw that Xie Yuan did not fire immediately, and immediately killed them with a submachine gun.
One soldier, who might not have been with Reznov before, couldn't stand this situation and stopped him: "They have surrendered."
But Reznov responded nonchalantly: "They have already surrendered once and will not accept their second surrender."
"Ah" and "hoo" were followed by a gust of wind, which suddenly hit Xie Yuan who had just walked out of the warehouse door. Xie Yuan, who was caught off guard, only had time to move a step to the left and punch out faster!
After touching the target, he then twists his fist hard. This is an action that Xie Yuan has subconsciously added in the past three years of practicing Wing Chun.
With a "click", the unlucky guy who was about to hit Xie Yuan with the butt of his gun had part of his ribs in his right lung deeply dug in by Xie Yuan's punch. Only then did Xie Yuan realize that it was the first time he had beaten someone to death with his fist. seriously injured.
For the first time in this world, he beat someone to the point of death with his fists. In the past, Xie Yuan used bullets to kill people the most.
Xie Yuan was so frightened that he quickly pulled out his fist. When he pulled it out, he even made a "pop" sound, and the Han Si soldier's right lung collapsed visibly.
Xie Yuan was stunned. When fighting at close range during the Aiden era, the most common way to kill people was to hit them in the throat to kill them, but today...he directly punched people in their ribs.
When the poor guy pulled out his fist, he dropped the gun on the ground feebly and fell down. Because his chest collapsed and he had difficulty breathing, he kept roaring "ho...ho...ho" in his mouth, which was quite painful. .
However, desertion is not allowed on the battlefield, otherwise someone might be able to make a cold shot. Fortunately, Reznov rushed out immediately, pushed Xie Yuan, and woke him up.
After regaining his attention, Xie Yuan saw Reznov shoot the Hansi soldier in the head the next moment.
"Uh..." Xie Yuan noticed that Reznov left without raising his head and wanted to stop him, but he suddenly remembered that this was a battlefield.
Reznov fired while moving to a safe area, and then called Xie Yuan to come over. He persuaded him: "Don't worry about your actions causing the enemy too much pain. Only the enemy's pain can make our inner pain and comfort come out." Release, the soul is liberated.
In fact, I am very pleased to see that you finally tried your best in the battle, although it was a subconscious behavior, which makes me a little disappointed.
Because if you really respect your opponent, you should go all out for the fight! This is true respect for them. "
"Okay, I was even talked to by him and almost convinced by him, what can I say?" Xie Yuan, who was complaining in his heart, did not dare to say it out, so he could only nod his head and continue to fight.
However, there were still only a few Hans soldiers who surrendered. Most of the soldiers entrenched in this base were die-hard members of the original Hans Third Reich.
Even if he knew that the situation was over, he still rushed forward to fight without fear of life and death. The two warring parties immediately fell into a fierce battle.
Fortunately, there are not too many Hans soldiers left behind in the Arctic Circle, only the number of a reinforced battalion. As the attackers, they brought more people this time, a full thousand-man reinforced infantry regiment!
...Although it is a front-line infantry regiment that has not yet had time to replenish its ranks, the number of people in the entire regiment is just over a thousand.
There was no way, after all, there were only so many troops who had just withdrawn from the front line area of the Eastern Front battlefield.
Moreover, according to the simplified infantry division organization in March 1945, each infantry company only needs 76 people, the infantry battalion has 241 people, the infantry regiment has 774 people, and the smallest infantry division only needs 3,600 people.
According to this algorithm, Dragovich's regiment can indeed be regarded as a reinforced infantry regiment!
However, although there is indeed no big advantage in terms of numbers, technically speaking, the current regiment is not inferior to any regiment of the same level.
Because this time Dragovich did not bring all the anti-tank gun platoons and anti-tank gun detachments, but separately brought the support units of two heavy mortar companies, and the mortar company directly under the battalion.
As soon as the war started, he fired a wave of mortars at the enemy!
At first, Xie Yuan thought it was Dragovich's order to bombard anyone who could not be killed.
But until Xie Yuan walked to a place where he could vaguely see the charred human-shaped corpses and the 50mm mortar barrels exploded into twists, which were far away from several places, but still did not escape the mortar positions that caused the destruction. .
Xie Yuan couldn't help but grit his teeth and looked shocked.
"This Dr. Steiner is so cruel!"
