Chapter 2662 Street Fighting Expertise
The two "Nazi nemesis" were here discussing when they met on the battlefield and whether they had killed more or fewer Nazis.
Boris has always remembered Alsim, but this is only Boris's own business. This is the first time Alsim has heard of this situation.
"Holy crap!? Stalingrad? Wait, you mean you were in Stalingrad at that time? That period from 1942 to 1943???"
The number of people who participated in the street fighting in Stalingrad was a small minority among the Red Army, and the number of people who came out of that purgatory-like battlefield alive was even smaller.
It's nothing more than Alsim having such a strong reaction. After all, the number of people who can come out of that city of purgatory and still live to this day cannot be said to be counted on one's fingers, but at least they are really only a drop in the bucket. Everyone who achieves this feat is a living legend.
"Don't look at me with this expression. Compared to me, you are more amazing."
"After all, I'm lurking in the shadows and hunting enemies from a distance, but what about you? My body is soaked in blood and I'm confronting the enemy. Every person you kill can look at you in despair and fear before they die. Face, I can’t think of any better way to punish those naughties than this. If someone like you is alive today, that’s a true legend.”
"To put it bluntly, if a story like this were told to other ordinary people, I would have died more than ten times, as if all the bullets and bayonets were flying around you.
After you sing, I will come on stage, and after you finish playing, I will play you.
After all the "business bragging" here, it feels like there is no real meaning. Although both parties are indeed amazed by the other's experience, at least there are more important and worthwhile things to do right now.
"We plan to move on. Do you want to come? Or do you want to find your army? We can give you a ride, at least we won't let you two be alone again and be caught and bullied by the Nazis."
Alsim issued a rare kind reminder out of good intentions, but Boris, who knew what he should do, politely refused.
"There's no need to send us off. Our two companies are still stuck in the traffic jam and can't get through. The heavy equipment is blocked and can't be moved, so the light infantry has to arrive first. We are mobile support, and we will go wherever we need help. "
"Well that's it."
Alsim had an idea and immediately changed the offer of escort to an invitation.
"Why don't you come and support us? Let's take care of each other. I'll take care of your security. I'm sure no nemesis can get even half a step closer to you. Accordingly, use your marksmanship to help us. Let's even out and help each other. ,what do you think?"
Alsim thought that Boris would think about it, but he didn't expect that the answer he gave was a smile with his beard grinning without thinking.
"No problem. It just so happens that I also want to see how you fight and see how those nasty bullets and bayonets go around you."
This old guy is indeed better at talking and mouthing than he is. Alsim, who rubbed his nose and grinned, followed up with the answer.
"Then let's go."
Following the group of combat engineers who had cleared the area, they walked out of the building. Boris, who was carrying an SVT-40 on his back and a short-range AK in his hand, didn't notice it until he walked out of the door, or in other words, he didn't notice it until then.
The outer wall of the first floor of this three-story hotel has been blasted with several huge gaps. There are three of them as far as the eye can see. Who knows there are still more in invisible places? no more.
The moment he saw this violently demolished gap in the wall, Boris felt inexplicably familiar, as if it evoked a long-standing memory deep in his memory.
"You did all these holes?"
"Huh? What holes? Oh, did you say this? What else? Who else could it be besides us? It was the movement caused by these holes that saved you."
Hearing Alsim's nonchalant answer next to him, Boris's suspicion was fulfilled.
really.
The reason why this inexplicably familiar hole feels like déjà vu is because I have indeed seen it before, but only a long time ago, in Stalingrad.
In street fighting, directional explosives are used to forcibly break down walls and change the original terrain to create new battlefield spaces and battlefield passages. This is the special skill of combat engineers as heavy assault infantry, and it is a unique skill. .
There are not many occasions to see combat engineers, and the opportunity to see combat engineers show off their skills and unique skills in street fighting is even rarer.
If you think about it carefully, the last time you saw combat engineers doing hard work was indeed during the Stalingrad period.
Those unreasonable combat engineers were called "battlefield rule breakers", at least that's what the Germans called them.
why?
Those German guys never imagined that they would be faced with a hole suddenly blown out of the toilet fence while taking a shit, and they would die in the shit. After fighting all day during the day, I was just getting ready to rest at night. I was sitting on the edge of the bed before I could lie down. As a result, my butt, the bed, and the entire wall next to the bed were exploded with a "bang", and I turned into a human being. Heaps of rotten meat died among the rubble of bricks and stones.
You can't rest peacefully, and you have to be on guard even when you're on the battlefield. You never know whether the seemingly safe bunker wall around you will become the wall blasting point selected by those "armored guys".
If there is no passage, use explosives to create one. If the combat terrain is unfavorable, blow up the combat terrain to your advantage.
Do you think that killing Nazis is the specialty of these combat engineers?
You are wrong. Explosives are.
Especially explosives in street fighting.
As an engineer, you should never forget your job and talents, even the "madmen" under Alsim are the same.
Boris originally thought that the noises from downstairs that covered his explosion were caused by cluster grenades.
Now he understands that it was Alsim who led people to perform his "specialty".
"Damn! This is good, we are late. The hard dishes have been snatched away by others, and there is not even a little leftovers for us."
"Huh?"
Boris, who was briefly immersed in the tide of memories, heard the words and found that Alsim was looking at the Nazi skeletons lying on the street and complaining.
Obviously, during the time when Alsim led his men to forcibly demolish the outer wall and break into the building to rescue Boris and the others, the main force that pushed forward along the main street had resolved the battle and continued to move forward.
There were no enemies left for Alsim and his party, but a pile of fresh corpses that were still a little warm.
This made Alsim, who was originally planning to continue killing, frown and feel unhappy. He immediately turned around and said to Boris and the others behind him.
Brothers, I will update once today. I have been taking care of my mother who was sick all day. I am really a little tired now. I didn’t eat much today. I will pack up and prepare to rest early. I will make up for it with ten updates on New Year’s Day. I will keep my promise.
