Chapter 549: fixed bunker

??Chapter 549 Fixed Bunker

??The 82nd Infantry Regiment did not pursue the victory.

In fact, it was impossible to take advantage of the victory and pursue it, because the German army was ready to build a complete line of defense at the foot of the mountain... It was a line of defense relying on assault guns and tanks. There was even a trench built between the tanks and a barbed wire fence in front. .

??The German army did not dare to lay mines on this line of defense because many defeated German soldiers fled back to this line of defense from Mamayev Post.

??However, even in this way, it is difficult for the Soviet army to break through such a line of defense.

??In other words, there is no need to break through this line of defense... Breaking through it will definitely suffer heavy casualties, and at the same time, when the sky dawns the next day, the Soviet army will not only have to retreat, but also have to spit out the positive slope.

?? "For us, the frontal **** is impossible to defend!" Shulka said to the others: "We have tried it, and it is difficult to defend it even with heavy casualties, but the reverse **** is not the case!"

?? Shulka said this to Pavelkov and a group of officers at the headquarters of the 39th Guards Infantry Regiment.

?? Shulka actually didn't want to do this, because it was a bit enviable... They are the Guards Infantry Regiment, and they still need troops like the 82nd Infantry Regiment to impart experience? There's a sense of pride in that, and Shulka understands it.

??But Pavelkov repeatedly asked, talked on the phone several times, and after being declined by Shulka, he rushed to Mamayev Post to invite him in person.

?? "Comrade Pavelkov!" Shulka said helplessly: "Actually, you also participated in the whole battle, so I don't think I need to say more..."

"Although you are right, Comrade Shulka!" Pavelkov replied: "But this is a battlefield, and many problems we only know that you do what you do but don't know why you do it. I don't think this will win the battle." This fight!"

?? Pavelkov's words made Shulka look at him differently.

??Facts are indeed as Pavelkov said, taboos on the battlefield "know it but don't know why."

??The result of not knowing and pretending to understand is that a simple change in the enemy's tactics may bring about completely different results, so it is necessary to dig deep and understand thoroughly.

?? "I'm sorry for my attitude towards you before!" Then Pavelkov handed Shulka a cigarette: "There is something I don't think you know, I have dismissed Lermontov!"

?? "Lieutenant Lermontov?" Shulka was taken aback and said: "You don't need to do this, Comrade Colonel, I don't mind this!"

?? Shulka was telling the truth.

?? There is a saying that goes, "You don't look at the mountains when you return from the Five Sacred Mountains, and you don't look at the mountains when you return from the Huashan Mountains."

??The capacity of a person is roughly the same...

??If a person lives in a small circle and has never seen a big scene, he is likely to be confined to one space and worry about trivial matters all day long.

?? On the contrary, people who have seen the world can easily jump out of this circle and look down on these problems from another height.

??The case of Shulka belongs to the latter.

If it was before, Shulka believes that he would have held grudges in his heart for Lieutenant Lermontov's contempt for the 82nd Infantry Regiment and the troubles it caused... These troubles even almost made the 82nd Infantry Regiment annihilated due to the defense of the front **** .

??However, after going through battles again and again, seeing more life-and-death scenes, and then going back to face some small conflicts between troops... that's not a problem.

??But Pavelkov shook his head.

"You misunderstood, Comrade Shulka!" Pavelkov said, "I did not dismiss him because of you! I did it because I realized that if an officer like him was kept on the post and continued to command the battle If it is, it is likely that more soldiers will be killed in the future... Besides, I can't even accuse him of anything!"

?? So Shulka understands.

This is indeed the case, because Lieutenant Lermontov did fight bravely on the battlefield, but he was the kind of brave and foolish, and then he would use his so-called "bravery" to stand on the commanding heights and teach others, thinking that others All who do not fight like him are "cowards."

?? Such a person has no problem as a soldier, and even needs such a soldier, but he must not be a commander.

?? After hesitating for a while, Colonel Pavelkov said with some embarrassment: "Perhaps, I should also leave the command post like him!"

?? "No, Comrade Pavelkov!" Shulka said: "You have such an understanding, I think you should stay in command posts, which may save the lives of many soldiers!"

?? "That's what I am for, Comrade Shulka!" Pavelkov said: "Being able to win battles while reducing casualties... That's why I need you to teach us a lesson, for all of us!"

?? So Shulka had no reason to refuse.

"But we are also very difficult to hold on the reverse slope!" A staff officer replied: "I know that we can deploy snipers, grenades, barbed wire and mines, etc., and we can also block enemy artillery and direct fire on the other side, but The enemy can use the same tactics as today... drive the tanks up the reverse **** as a cover, and then they can rush into our defense lines!"

?? "They will get harder and harder!" Shulka replied.

?? "It's getting more and more difficult?" Pavelkov asked suspiciously: "You mean...their tanks will be consumed, right?"

?? "No, Comrade Colonel!" Shulka replied: "I mean, those tank wrecks can be used!"

?? "Tank wreck?"

?? "Yes!" Shulka replied: "When we surrounded and annihilated the Germans on the reverse slope, we discovered a very interesting phenomenon. The Germans emptied the corpses in the tank wreckage and reused the heading machine gun inside!"

?? "Yes!" Colonel Pavelkov nodded.

??He organized the frontal attack, so of course he knew that the German army transformed and used tank wreckage.

?? "But it is difficult for us to use them!" Colonel Pavelkov said: "Because it is facing our defense line, and if we want to use it, it will not change the fact that it is a German bunker!"

??Colonel Pavelkov originally planned to use explosives to blow up these tank wreckages from the inside into parts, so that the German army could no longer rely on them to launch an attack at dawn the next day.

"No!" replied Shulka, "they cannot be exploited by the enemy! Why don't we drag these tank wrecks into the front of our line of defense? Then we can weld the body anywhere on the body, so it will become a fixed blockhouse !"
