Before launching a new round of charge, Lin Hua asked Saviev to gather the soldiers in the third row and he wanted to mobilize them before the war. After the soldiers formed a neat queue in the trench, Lin Hua stood on a mound outside the trench, facing the soldiers, pointing behind him with his hand, and said: "Comrades, look!"

The soldiers' eyes couldn't help but look in the direction pointed by Lin Hua. There, you can see the rising fire, the diffuse smoke, and hear the intensive sound of gunfire. All this shows that his comrades are engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy.

After Lin Hua and other soldiers watched for a while, he continued: "Comrades, you have all seen that our comrades are being suppressed by enemy fire and unable to move in front of the position. I will lead you to help them. You are all ready. Yet?"

Only a few sparse voices came from the queue: "Ready!" But more soldiers remained silent. Lin Hua's eyes swept across the faces of the soldiers in the front row, and most of what he saw were panicked expressions. Seeing this situation, he understood in his heart that the guerrilla fighters had no experience in fighting regular battles, and he was full of worry and fear for such an intense battle. In fact, this is understandable. When I first arrived in this world, when I heard bullets whizzing past my head, I almost wet my pants in fear.

Saveyev, who was standing in the queue, was very dissatisfied with the reaction of his men. He climbed out of the trench, stood next to Lin Hua, and said angrily to his men: "I said, comrades, you all What's wrong, are you scared? Are you frightened by the German machine guns and mortars?" Many soldiers lowered their heads in shame when they heard what Saviev said.

Lin Hua was here to boost morale and dispel the fear in the hearts of the soldiers, not to blame them. So as soon as Saviev finished speaking, he quickly raised his voice and said: "Comrades of the third platoon, most of you came from the Saviev guerrillas before they were adapted into the regular army. This is a The guerrillas with fine traditions have made great achievements when cooperating with the 8th Guards Division to defend Voloklamsk. Today, as the liberators of Volokramsk, you are back here again." He He pointed backwards with the hand holding the submachine gun and said impassionedly, "Now, pick up the weapons in your hands, go and destroy those invaders who do all kinds of evil in our land, and achieve great feats!"

As soon as Lin Hua finished speaking, someone took the lead and shouted "Ula". Immediately, the whole queue was mobilized by himself. They turned in the direction of the enemy's position in front of them and shouted loudly: "Comrades, for the sake of the motherland! Move forward!" ~!" He raised the submachine gun above his head, swung it at the gun, and took the lead to rush out.

The company commander personally took the lead in rushing out, platoon leader Saviev rushed out, and deputy platoon leader Stepan also rushed out. Seeing that the commanders were rushing to the front, how could the rest of the soldiers in the platoon dare to neglect, so they shouted loudly, held the weapons in their hands, and rushed forward behind them.

The scene of Lin Hua leading the charge was seen by Andryushenko from the rear observation post. He smiled and nodded approvingly and said: "Well done, this Lieutenant Sokov is really good. If only he could For taking over this enemy position, I will definitely give credit to him and his soldiers!"

Asiya, who was nursing the wounded in the dressing room, heard shouts from outside and wondered what was going on, so she walked out of the dressing room to see what happened. I happened to see Lin Hua leading three rows of soldiers, trotting towards the German position in the distance. She couldn't help but exclaimed, rushed out of the trench along the slope not far away, stood in front of the trench, and shouted at the back of the soldiers, "Misha~!"

It's a pity that Lin Hua didn't hear Asiya's shouts, and he didn't know that Andryushchenko was observing his every move with a telescope. He just wanted to lead the soldiers to rush up early to assist the first and second platoons. The warriors captured the enemy's position.

The German commander in the position discovered that another Soviet force of dozens of people was rushing over from a distance. He immediately ordered the mortar to change the shooting target, trying to use artillery fire to destroy this small force that was rushing over.

Moments later, German artillery shells fell and exploded in the middle of three rows. The bursting shrapnel hit the soldiers near the explosion point, pierced their bodies, and splashed the blood on the bodies of the soldiers nearby. Although comrades continued to fall around them, the surviving soldiers still shouted and rushed forward.

The mortars moved their shooting targets. The soldiers in the first and second rows who had been suppressed by machine guns and artillery fire suddenly felt that the pressure was greatly reduced. The two platoon leaders began to organize the surrounding soldiers and continued to approach the enemy's position. The most outstanding performance was that of Vanya and several of his soldiers. Under the intensive machine gun fire of the German army, they looked at the gaps between machine gun firings and quickly fired; or they rolled and crawled out of a crater. Enter another crater and approach the enemy's position step by step.

Just as the German machine gun fire blocked the way forward for the first and second platoons and mortars intercepted the third platoon, the soldiers of the machine gun platoon established a machine gun position three hundred meters away from the position. Following an order, eighteen machine guns opened fire at the same time. The fire net composed of dense firepower was like an invisible big hand, pushing all the German soldiers who were shooting on the position into the trenches.

Seeing that the gunfire on the enemy's position became sparse, Vanya jumped up from the crater where he was hiding, stood there and fired a short burst. When he saw a German soldier emerging, he was so frightened that he retracted into the trench. Before the German soldier could raise his head again, he had already thrown himself into the trench and knocked the German soldier down with one shot. …

Andryushchenko in the observation post saw the soldiers rushing into the trenches one after another and couldn't help but cheer. He held up his telescope and said to the Chief of Staff without looking back: "Chief of Staff, call the commander immediately and tell him that the soldiers of the Istria Company have rushed into the enemy's position."

The chief of staff agreed, immediately picked up the phone and called Remizov to report the good news to him. Unexpectedly, after hearing the news, Remizov frowned, "What, you just rushed into the first trench? Comrade Chief of Staff, please tell Lieutenant Colonel Andryushenko that it is too slow. Your attack speed is too slow!"

After Remizov put down the phone, he ordered the communications soldier sitting not far away: "Get me to the group army headquarters. I want to report the battle situation here to the comrade commander."
