Chapter 1397: Everyone Has a Machine Gun, and They Shoot at Everyone They See

Yeger was an ordinary soldier in the Combat Engineer Battalion. He had no position or enviable rank. He was sent to the Stalin Guards 1st Tank Division by a transfer order after he returned to the front line after recovering from his injury in early 1944.

The reason was that he had enough combat experience and was an outstanding veteran. Only such a person was qualified to be selected for the Stalin Guards 1st Tank Division.

If placed in other ordinary Red Army units, with Yeager's combat experience since 1942, he could have been a platoon leader or company commander. But unfortunately, Yeager was transferred to the "Combat Engineer Battalion" with the strongest combat effectiveness in the entire division to join the battle sequence as soon as he arrived.

Here, all kinds of veterans and experienced big men are everywhere, and even the cooks of the Combat Engineer Battalion have been cooking since 1941. It is said that when the situation was critical, he picked up a kitchen knife and fought with the Germans. I don't know if he killed the Germans, but it sounds awesome anyway.

Jaeger's squad leader was a deputy company commander in his old unit. He was transferred to the Stalin Guards 1st Tank Division by chance. Although he was demoted three levels and became a squad leader, he had no complaints and enjoyed it.

The reason was very simple. It was just that he had something to do in the Stalin Guards 1st Tank Division. It was wonderful to be in the most elite tank unit of the Red Army and kill Germans.

After learning about this situation, Jaeger was slightly disappointed with the reality that he could only be a soldier, but he was relieved and no longer had any complaints.

For the combat engineer battalion where he was, Jaeger's biggest feeling was that the equipment was really amazing! Putting it in other Red Army units, you can't even think about it.

In the combat engineer battalion, you can choose all kinds of light weapons and portable equipment.

Not only are there weapons produced by the motherland, but also those from the British and American cowboys, and a large number of weapons and equipment seized from the Germans.

If you want, you can even equip yourself with a German-made Walther pistol for self-defense, but more soldiers still prefer the Tokarev TT33 pistol produced by the motherland. The reason is that it is powerful. No matter how big and arrogant the German stick is, it can be knocked down with one shot. If it hits the forehead, it can even directly open the head and make red and white fly.

It is really a man's weapon, powerful enough! Of course, it is also Yeager's own choice.

However, when it comes to the most useful and amazing exclusive weapon, Yeager can touch his conscience and swear to Comrade Stalin that it is the thing called "assault rifle" in his hand.

For this battle, Yeager prepared three full magazines of bullets in advance and kept them as spares. Counting the magazine inserted in the gun itself, Yeager has a total of 120 rounds of ammunition available in this battle.

Maybe this sounds like a lot, but if we look at the actual firing rate, these 120 rounds of bullets may not be able to withstand the high-intensity battle that lasts for five minutes before they are all used up. But even so, there is no other way. The special bullets that arrived with this batch of new assault rifles are very limited, and they cannot be used in conjunction with any other existing ammunition. This is also the only regret of Yeager.

"We have to use them sparingly, and try to kill a German devil with three shots!"

With such thoughts in mind, Yeager, who was wearing a double-layer heavy armor bulletproof vest, a steel helmet on his head, and looked like a human tank and had already jumped into the trench, resolutely raised the new assault rifle in his hand for the first time towards the enemy who was aiming less than a hundred meters away.

Dong Dong Dong——

Unlike the crisp and fast continuous unique gunshots of the PPS, the firing noise of the new assault rifle seems heavy and powerful, with a higher decibel and a relatively slow firing rate.

The recoil, which was not small, came through the wooden buttstock in waves and finally acted on Yeager's shoulder. It was a little painful when used for the first time.

Jaeger, who was highly proficient in light weapons, fired three short bursts as he expected. His two strong arms full of tendons tightly grasped the weapon, tightly suppressing the shaking effect caused by the recoil and ensuring the shooting accuracy as much as possible.

Three 62mm pointed rifle bullets were ejected continuously, with a muzzle velocity far exceeding that of PPSh and a faster bullet flight speed. Hitting a target less than 100 meters away was almost a breath of time before the gunshot knocked the person down.

Bang——

Without any screams or any painful face covering the wound, Jaeger, with his right eye, rear sight, and front sight in a straight line, directly chose the German's head with a steel helmet as the shooting target.

The result of all three bullets was that the whole good man's head was instantly beaten into a bloody paste-like object, splattering and scattering. The headless body without a head fell to the ground on the spot like a flying head leopard with ammunition exploding, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

"Oh my god, this thing is so powerful!?"

After killing the target with three consecutive shots and confirming the results with his own eyes, Jaeger immediately retracted his upper body and retreated into the trench. The volley of retaliatory shots from the Germans that came at him all missed and failed to hit. Jaeger, who saved his life because of his quick reaction, was leaning against the trench and marveling at the powerful destructive power of the new gun in his hand.

"The rate of fire of the submachine gun, the range of the rifle, and the power of the machine gun are right. This thing is simply amazing!"

Yager's reaction and the battle situation are actually just a local microcosm. On the current infantry battlefield and between the trenches, more Red Army soldiers holding new assault rifles are fighting bravely and releasing the amazing destructive power of the new assault rifles in their hands.

The German army did think about counterattacking this group of new Russian forces, but just like a German submachine gunner, he picked up his MP40 and fired half a magazine at a tall and strong Russian, and emptied the magazine. The bullets that fell on his chest and abdomen were all sparks, like hitting a tank and had no effect at all.

With a double-layer SN-42 steel plate bulletproof vest, this combat engineer battalion soldier who was completely immune to the German submachine gun, immediately raised his hand and raised the thing in his hand, waist-fired and swept, and even the action of shoulder aiming was directly cancelled.

The violent shaking of the upper receiver spit out hot shells one after another. In an instant, the German submachine gunners were swept into a hornet's nest in the blood splatter. They fell backwards in the rain and mud, and they were no longer alive.

The strange and indescribable broken guns in the hands of the new Russians had a longer range than submachine guns, a faster rate of fire than rifles, and lighter than machine guns. Every one of them had one. The German army, who had never seen such a groundbreaking weapon, was completely stunned. The "everyone had a machine gun, and they would shoot at anyone they saw" battle was simply unbearable!

In just less than five minutes, the situation was completely reversed, the defense was turned into offense, and the casualties of the German infantry were as high as a rocket.
