After waving to the military police next to him to take away the lightly wounded, the major also found Zaimuzao who was looking at him strangely.

"What are you looking at? I'm counting down to three seconds, get out of here immediately!"

Cai Muzuo's hand holding the stretcher was bulging with veins, and his gaze became deep.He looked at the four burly military policemen around the major, as well as the unconscious Lieutenant William, and finally lowered his head and concentrated on walking, so as not to let the bastard see his murderous eyes.

"Bah." The major spat when he saw Zai Muzao softened, looked at him contemptuously, then turned his head and ignored him.

"Another coward, I thought I'd have some fun."

Because Lieutenant William had been in a coma, the military police next to him stared at the two with unkind eyes.Friedheim had no choice but to borrow a pen to leave a letter to William and walked out of the hospital.

It was already high in the sun at this time, probably because of the winter, the feeble sunlight shone on them but they could not feel any warmth, so Zaimuzuo took out a few cigarettes, lit one for himself and gave one to Fredheim .

After indulging in the charm of nicotine and tar for a while, Zaimokiza spoke slowly:

"We are working hard on the front line, and we have to be angry with these bastards in the rear. I really wanted to raise my submachine gun and give him a shot just now."

"They'd better hope they don't give me the chance to get shot."

Friedheim exhaled smoke in response.

"Ha, you can rest assured that they will not end well, they will end sooner or later."

Zai Muzao patted his friend's shoulder with a smile, and silently added in his heart: We are too.

Looking at the half-hidden sun among the clouds, Zaimuza hated himself for being too ordinary and humble like he did now. He knew that a disaster was about to happen but he couldn't do anything. He could only watch helplessly as his comrades collapsed. Next, now it will be my turn.

…………

Starting from November 11th, bad news came from behind like snowflakes one after another:

On the 19th, the 4th Army and the 5th Army, the main force of the Romanians, with nearly 4 main forces, were surrounded by the Soviet Union.

On the 20th, in the southern outskirts of Stalingrad, the Soviet 51st and 57th Armies tore through the defenses of the German Fourth Panzer Army and the Romanians, and advanced towards the Don River. The southern front was in a hurry.

On the 21st, on the northern front, the counterattack of the H Panzer Army failed. The Soviet army was not far from Paulus's headquarters in Lubinsky. Paulus fled by plane.On the southern front, the 6th Armored Army and the Romanian [-]th Army retreated completely, and Huott was no longer able to effectively command his troops.

On the 22nd, part of the Sixth Army and the Fourth Panzer Army were about to be surrounded, and the German army began to retreat to Stalingrad and the Don River.A large number of material warehouses fell into the hands of the Soviet army after the evacuation. The officers in the warehouse did not forget to bring high-quality red wine and champagne when they evacuated, and the soldiers stuffed their rucksacks with food and canned food.

Adolf ordered that night: "The Sixth Army should establish a circular defensive position and wait for reinforcements to rescue. Air Marshal Hermann Meyer assured that the Air Force will go all out to provide supplies."

On the 24th, the siege of the Sixth Army was completely closed, and 32 people (including the servants and some Soviet auxiliary personnel) fell into Zhukov's pocket.The food and ammunition of so many people had to be transported by the air force, and the limited JU-52 transport aircraft was not enough. The Germans had to use the He-111 level bomber as a transport aircraft, but the supplies were still far from enough.

…………

In the city of Stalingrad, Vasily was proud of himself.Two days ago, the Soviet army finally recaptured the chemical plant, and now he was transferred back to the camp of the 35th Guards Division on the Red Square on the southern line, looking for the figure he dreamed of inside.

"Comrade, do you know where Tanya is?"

"There are many people with this name, do you know her number?"

"Uh, the 12th militia detachment, I remember this."

"Team 12...sorry, this number was revoked a month ago, I'm sorry."

Operation Blue - Stalingrad: Chapter 65 Chapter 63 Revenge

In December, the harsh winter in Russia has come, snowflakes have put on a beautiful layer of silver for the city, covering all the bloodstains and stains.If you ignore the severe cold and the enemies hiding in the ruined walls, it can be regarded as a pleasing scenery.

Outside the city of Stalingrad, the two sides of the war were fighting fiercely. The 65th Army concentrated 4 infantry divisions and 100 tanks to attack the 4 kilometers west of the [-]th Army's defense line. Paulus immediately mobilized troops to reinforce. After paying a lot of money, they regained their positions.

A tank battle broke out at the westernmost Malinovka salient, which is the closest starting point if the Germans break out to the Don River.

On the contrary, the conflict in Stalingrad has weakened a lot. Paulus has drawn a lot of new troops out of the city to strengthen the German defense line, and the offensive can only be suspended.And Cuikov's 62nd Army was also powerless to counterattack. After many days of fierce fighting, they had only [-] men left, and all the divisions and brigades under their jurisdiction had been put on airs.

The easing of the overall situation does not mean that there is no local fighting. In Mamayev Hill, in the "fortress" factory, and in unknown streets and alleys, tragic street fighting is still going on...

At night, under the leadership of Douglas, 4 German troops took advantage of the heavy snow and touched a ruin. The basement here was an isolated resistance stronghold of the Soviet army.

Although there was a sentry standing guard outside, Douglas and the others had been observing the place for several days, and had already figured out everything here, including the position of the sentry, the blind spot of the viewing angle, the route of travel, and the time of handover.

Sentinels are also human beings, so they naturally chose a good place to shelter from the wind and rain.The sound of the wind covered up the crunching sound of the German army stepping on the snow, and the heavy snow wiped away all the footprints. The weather was beautiful, the moon was dark and the wind was high. This was the best opportunity for a surprise attack.

Cai Muzuo didn't feel well, although he imitated others and wrapped his ears and head with a long cloth vertically, but the cold wind blowing in front of him was like a knife scraping on his face, which made people feel excruciatingly painful.

Although the military cotton coat on his body was a bit worn out, it kept him warm. The woolen cloak that was seized before could also keep him warm.

It's just that he didn't have leather gloves, so he wrapped a white cloth a few times casually to barely protect his palm.The fingers holding the Bobosha submachine gun felt like they were about to lose consciousness and were about to freeze. His MP40 was handed over to Friedheim for use.

Fortunately, Sergeant Douglas didn't keep him waiting long, and before he clenched his fist, he gave them a gesture of action. Zaimuza drew out his dagger and Friedheim walked towards the back of the sentry step by step.

The Soviet sentry had no time to react, so Zai Muzuo strangled his neck from behind with one hand, and slammed the dagger into his body with the other hand, while Friedheim snatched the rifle from the sentry at the same time to prevent him from attacking. He fired a warning shot.

Zaimuza is not a professional assassin, and he can't do the difficult assassination of covering his mouth and wiping his neck from behind the enemy in one go, but he has Fredheim as his helper. Judging from the proficiency of their cooperation, they have done it more than once. Such a trick.

After dragging the body of the sentinel into a dark place, a group of four German soldiers approached the door of the basement. Douglas kicked the door open, and Zai Muzuo took an egg-shaped M39 grenade off the safety ring and threw it in.

"boom!"

Before the gunpowder smoke from the grenade dissipated, Zaimuza rushed in with a submachine gun in his hand.

…………

"Damn Ivan! How do they make their bread? How do they eat it?"

With a knife in hand, Timuzuo struggled angrily with a large piece of black bread.

Lao Maozi's Da Lie is well-known in later generations. Someone once updated 31 posts a day just to scold this kind of food, and was honored as Princess Lie.

This princess is still eating the improved white row. The black row in front of Cai Muzuo is so hard after being naturally frozen that it can be used as a grenade to hit people. It is very laborious to cut it with a dagger.

Friedheim walked over with something.

"I found a saw from the ruins, now we can deal with this mentally retarded bread."

Since the disaster of November 11, the German army has received less and less supplies.Paulus's poor fuel and ammunition reserves couldn't launch a decent breakout campaign at all, so Zaimoza abandoned his usual MP18 and switched to Bobosha, and the food reserves were getting less and less day by day.

According to the original standard, the German front-line combatants could get 750 bread and 250 grams of meat per person per day.Now that the bread has been halved twice to 200 grams, and the meat is sometimes available, Zaimuza and the others can only fight Ivans half-starved and half-fed. Before that, Captain Feiger agreed to launch an adventurous raid, which may mean robbing the enemy's supplies .

Everyone in the Greyhound company is in this church. Now, they have lost more than ten people due to shelling, cold and fighting in the past few days. The entire company has only more than 30 people, which is not enough to enter a platoon in Stalingrad.

Not only the soldiers, but the officers also lost a lot. Except for the company commander, Captain Feiger, the three platoon leaders under him were either killed or seriously injured. They were all replaced by other experienced non-commissioned officers. The monitors don't make any difference.

Timuzuo took a bite of Heilei, this kind of food was like bagasse that had completely lost its moisture and sugar, it hurt his teeth and was terribly unpalatable at the same time, but he still swallowed it with the broth to satisfy his hunger.

"This soup... doesn't taste right, what kind of meat is this?"

Captain Figg also took a sip of the broth, and quickly frowned.

"It's the horsemeat officer. Marshal Paulus ordered that the extra horses be killed for rations."

The messenger who was in charge of distributing the broth to the others replied that his bucket had bottomed out after giving everyone a spoonful.

"After the horses are all killed, how will we break out and what will we use to get supplies?"

"Manstein will come to rescue us!" The communications soldier replied very confidently, he looked very optimistic.

"The general said everything would be fine if Manstein attacked."

Man is not group ah?It's a ghost if he can come.Zaimuza smiled disdainfully, not to say that he was dissatisfied with Manstein, one of the three famous German generals, but he knew that Manstein's newly formed Don Army Group could not save Paulus and the people in the encirclement. It's the same for anyone.

Only these logistics soldiers can remain optimistic. Although the Sixth Army claims to have more than 30 people, more than half of them are not infantry directly on the battlefield. fierce.

"By the way, General Shi Molin once again urged you to launch an attack tomorrow at the latest. I'm leaving, goodbye!"

The Greyhound Company watched the signaler go, then fell to the ground with a single shot.

"Enemy attack!"

…………

"One"

Vasily scratched the butt of the sniper rifle, and from today onwards, he will start his revenge here.

Q group six two 177 Yiliu

Operation Blue - Stalingrad: Chapter 66 Chapter 64 Sniping

"Enemy attack!"

Timuzuo threw down the tin lunch box and the unfinished black column, instinctively picked up the Bobosha submachine gun next to him, leaned against the wall, and slowly looked out carefully from the side of the church's window that had not yet collapsed.

The small half of the church was bombarded by rockets before, and the gray hound and the remaining 30 people hid in the other half.

There are not many undamaged buildings nearby, except that there is a 6-story department store across the street that can still shelter from the wind and rain, and there are ruins everywhere.

But the department store is in the hands of the Soviets, and it is the target of the Gray Hound Company's attack tomorrow. If the enemy launches an attack, the most likely direction is also there.

Schneider led the deputy machine gunner to quickly set up the machine gun position, and the others also took their positions within a short period of time, forming a standard cross-fire defensive formation from ruins, corners, windows, etc.

However, after a while, the Soviet army that had imagined to attack did not arrive.

"I didn't find any enemy officers, it may be a stray bullet or a sniper."

The sentinel in charge of observation came to a conclusion.

Captain Feigel thought for a while, still kept the soldiers on alert, and then sent someone to drag the body of the messenger back.

The soldier who was named took the lead. He knew it was a dangerous mission, but he also believed that if the sniper on the opposite side dared to shoot again, his teammates would definitely avenge him.

What is not dangerous in Stalingrad in late 1942?

In the cracks of a ruin a hundred meters outside the church, Vasily was hiding here alone wearing a layer of white cloth as a camouflage net.It was hard to spot him from the outside even during the day, not to mention it was midnight.

Originally, Cuikov had decided to appoint him as the principal of the newly established sniper school, but he resolutely rejected the proposal, and even left his deputy behind and returned to the front line alone, just to vent the burning anger in his heart.

After noticing the movement of the German army, he did not shoot, but used the scope to observe the distribution of German firepower again.This time he saw more clearly, especially carefully observing the positions of the two machine guns that were heavy firepower.

Precision and camouflage are the survival skills of hunters.

Grandpa often taught Vasily this way before, even sometimes camouflage is more important than precision, and hunters who expose their positions at will often become a feast for wild beasts.

If he shoots now, his marksmanship will undoubtedly kill this German soldier, but what's the point of that?

Although other German troops may not be able to immediately discover his specific location, the way to deal with a sniper is far more than just another sniper. kind of threat.

Vasily is not in a hurry, he has enough time and patience to complete his revenge, and tonight is just an appetizer before the feast begins.

Thinking of this, he quietly exited the bunker and walked towards the department store not far away.

…………

Everyone was relieved to see that the soldiers who had gone out returned safely. Captain Feigel tore off the collar of the deceased, checked the wounds of the corpse, and recalled the position where he fell to the ground.

"It seems to be in the direction of the department store." Sergeant Douglas looked at the bullet holes and made a judgment.

Captain Feiger nodded solemnly. Knowing the enemy's location is finally good news. As long as another troop didn't steal their ass, there would be nothing to worry about.He waved to the two soldiers to bury the body in the ground around the church, and said to the others:

"The alarm is off, let everyone rest except the sentinel, we will start our attack tomorrow."

…………

Early the next morning, Vasily was about to walk out of the department store when a Soviet second lieutenant followed him.

"Comrade Vasily, do you really not need any teammates? I mean, although we are few in number, there are still a few guys here with good marksmanship, maybe they can..."

Vasily patted the second lieutenant on the shoulder, "Comrade second lieutenant, please have some confidence in me. If the enemy dares to dispatch on a large scale, I believe you will not let them succeed, will you?"

In the end, he still rejected the second lieutenant's kindness, and came to another sniper position alone to start his new round of hunting.Those infantrymen may have good marksmanship, but they are very likely to expose their positions without receiving complete camouflage training, which is a burden to him instead.

Today he chose a position farther away from the department store.

The department store, his location, and the church where the Germans were located formed an isosceles right triangle, and he was on that right angle.

And in the church in the distance, the soldiers of the Gray Hound Company are doing routine pre-battle inspections, wiping the barrels, checking the bullets, to prevent their weapons from going wrong during the battle

Captain Feigel looked down at his watch, and said with a blank expression:

"Get started."

After receiving the order, the soldiers got up from the ground, the infantry closed the safety and loaded the bullets, and the two machine gun teams also set up machine gun positions at the preset location.

The mortar team hid behind the church and constantly adjusted the shelling angle according to the previous data.

"Otto, Hans, Friedheim, the three of you follow me, and the machine gun team pay attention to cover us."

Zaimokza got up and followed Sergeant Douglas, they would attack first as a commando.

Compared with the attack before November, the Sixth Army had very little ammunition left for its large-caliber artillery, and the Air Force was trying its best to transport supplies for the Army, and there was no extra force to launch bombing.The few tanks became Paulus' firefighters due to lack of fuel, and they were sent to where the battle was most anxious.

Fortunately, light weapons and ammunition in the encirclement are still abundant, and now the infantry can only rely on themselves.
