I asked you to escape, but you became a soldier in World War II

Chapter 14: Ironclad Fortifications
"Comrade Sergeant, I'm seriously injured now, and it's even more difficult for me to hold the position. Please be kind and allocate some equipment to us, otherwise I will die with regrets." Lin Chen tried his best to pretend to be on the verge of death.

The medical soldier was actually a jack of all trades (the excellent medical soldiers had already gone to the front line), and he just gave Lin Chen a simple bandage. When he heard what Lin Chen said was so serious, he could only turn around and signal to his superior that he could do nothing.

The sergeant's heart tightened. Although he was used to seeing death here, the Asian boy in front of him had saved his life after all. In addition, Pavlov looked sad, so he could only say with embarrassment, "I really can't give you heavy weapons, but there are a bunch of "destroyed" equipment over there. Go and see if you can use any of them."

Then he walked forward without looking back. He had to escort the supplies and new recruits to Mamayev Kurgan and other important places overnight.

Seeing him walking away, Lin Chen jumped up from the ground, and then limped to the place where the sergeant said the equipment was damaged in the surprised eyes of everyone.

He believed that the sergeant was definitely talking about something and would not really give him a pile of scrap metal.

Fuck, so many good stuff?
Including more than 10 PPSh-41 submachine guns, a Maxim heavy machine gun, three of the latest PTRS-41 anti-tank guns, a considerable number of Mosin-Nagant rifles and DP-27 light machine guns, and a large amount of ammunition, food and medicine.

What excited Lin Chen the most was that there were actually several boxes of RPG-40 anti-tank grenades and mines, as well as a professional Mosin-Nagant sniper rifle.

Get rich!
Lin Chen’s first reaction was that he had become rich!
"Comrade Lin Chen, is your leg injury serious?" Pavlov thought to himself, you kid are pretending too well, I was almost scared to death by you!
"Hey, it's okay! Let's quickly call someone to move the things."

"Comrade Lin, it's a pity that you don't go to the United States to act. What a waste of talent!" said the second lieutenant with a look of disdain.

The medic walked away with shame on his face. It was so damn embarrassing.

However, Lin Chen didn't care about it at all, and quickly asked the people who ran out of the building to move things.

This time, everyone, young and old, men, women, and children joined in the moving, even a few children helped.

However, Lin Chen repeatedly told him that he could help but not to take it out to play with it!

"Comrade Lin, should we move these?" Hunt took a look at the supplies and hesitantly asked for his opinion.

Lin Chen looked at what was under the canvas and found that it was a few barrels of gasoline and several steel baffles from anti-tank guns.

"Move everything away! There's still some food there, we want it too!"

The second lieutenant was stunned by Lin Chen's ground-breaking "plundering" method. He even suspected that if he agreed to support him with weapons, he would be intercepted and added to his defense team.

After everyone worked all night, a simple and efficient defense system was initially established.

Around the building, there were a large number of mines aimed at infantry and tanks, and several layers of barbed wire, sandbags (filled with rubble after the food was poured out), and a fortification line consisting of German corpses, which protected the building heavily.

Even under Lin Chen's command, they made several anti-tank obstacles using existing metal objects.

Inside the building, sandbags were placed in the corridors and doorways, and a DP-27 light machine gun was mounted on every window facing the square, which was the direction of the German attack. A Maxim heavy machine gun and four anti-tank rifles were mounted on the top of the building. Sandbags were placed all around, and even the ground was covered with sand as much as possible to avoid secondary damage.

Trenches were dug in the rooms on the first floor, which were connected to the trenches outside the building through ventilation holes in the semi-basement and could be used as external defense and attack positions.

Barbed wire blocked the entrance to the stairs and furniture was thrown into the stairwell, so that even if the Germans occupied the first floor, it would be extremely difficult to attack the second floor.

They broke through the walls of each room, dug rat holes, and climbed up and down using ropes or ladders to make it easier for the defenders to maneuver between rooms.

In addition, Lin Chen also found a pile of empty wine bottles in the abandoned warehouse of the building, filled them with gasoline, and made a large number of "Molotov cocktails".

Not only that, there is a solid basement under the building, which stores ammunition, food, drinking water and other supplies. The Soviet army can rely on this building to resist for a long time.

"The biggest problem now is the enemy's anti-aircraft guns and that damn Type 3 assault gun. They pose too great a threat to us." Lin Chen worked hard all night, and his leg injury was almost healed. However, he did not dare to tear off the gauze, otherwise people would definitely think he was a monster.

"Do you have any good idea?" Pavlov had never thought about this kind of thing. It was too far away and his weapons and equipment were not enough.

"Maybe we can gather everyone together to think of a solution." Lin Chen still prefers to pool resources. Three heads are better than Zhuge Liang!
Sure enough, as soon as everyone heard that they had to find a way to deal with the opponent's artillery, they immediately ignored their fatigue and started to come up with ideas.

In the end, it was the communications soldier who was assigned here who made a suggestion that made everyone's eyes light up: If it is true as everyone said that the German artillery is all together, then let the heavy artillery group across the river launch a round of rapid fire, which is guaranteed to destroy them!

However, he admitted that he was only a communications soldier and did not know how to calculate azimuth coordinates. Without precise position parameters, the artillery could not fire accurately and might even hurt his own people.

"I know this. When I was in the factory, an old master taught me. He was an artilleryman during World War I." Lin Chen had no choice but to come up with such a lame excuse. Anyway, the same thing still applies. It is estimated that no one in the factory can survive. Now can't he say whatever he wants?
As for Pavlov and others, they were even more delighted when they heard it. Lin Chen had brought them so many incredible things.

Now, no matter whether what he said is true or not, even if there is a glimmer of possibility, we have to give it a try.

In yesterday's offensive and defensive battle, the enemy's artillery advantage was too great.

The telegram was sent to Chuikov, who agreed to their request after careful consideration and provided a communication channel for a heavy artillery battalion. Since firepower support was needed in all places, they could only be allowed to provide firepower support by calling them in plain text between 4:4 and 30: this afternoon. Of course, the coordinates and other parameters should also be informed.

It is particularly emphasized that the opponent can only provide one round of rapid fire due to the shortage of ammunition!

Pavlov, Lin Chen and others were very satisfied after receiving the telegram. A round of rapid fire, if the coordinates were accurate, could definitely inflict devastating damage on the enemy's artillery.

The problem now is how to make the enemy concentrate as much artillery as possible.
