Chapter 6 This loss is acceptable!

Seeing that Lin Chen was so sensible, the second lieutenant naturally became more relaxed.

"Comrade, don't think about military supplies. They have been counted. If there is any missing, I will be brought to a military court! Please understand!" His voice was very loud. In fact, these words were not only spoken to Lin Chen, but also to Pavlov.

Pavlov was also disappointed after hearing this. "See, I said no? But you insisted that I try it. Now I am embarrassed."

However, Lin Chen had no intention of giving up. Instead, he looked surprised.

"How dare we take advantage of the military supplies? Don't worry about this. We are just expressing our sympathy. You have to transport supplies under the bombing of German planes every day. It is not easy." As he said that, Lin Chen took out a bottle of strong vodka from his waist.

When the second lieutenant saw the wine, his eyes widened.

Hehe, as expected, when the Russians see strong liquor, they don’t care about their lives anymore. What kind of shitty rules are they talking about?
Lin Chen couldn't help but sneer in his heart, what the instructor in his previous life taught was really reliable.

The second lieutenant was embarrassed when he saw Lin Chen took out the wine but refused to hand it to him. He couldn't just ask for it directly.

"Alas, we have to defend this building now. Heavy weapons are in short supply. We do have some vodka, but we can't use vodka to blow up the German tanks, right?" Lin Chen pretended to throw the bottle in his hand as if it were an anti-tank grenade.

The second lieutenant was terrified by what he saw. Don't do that!

There was only the liquor in his eyes, and he no longer cared about anything else Lin Chen said.

Coincidentally, when Lin Chen was searching for supplies on the fourth floor of the Pavlov Building, he actually found a box of top-quality vodka. He lamented at the time that these things were of little use!
But when he saw the endless stream of transport teams shuttling back and forth at the ferry and the mountains of supplies, he came up with the idea of ​​bartering.

The second lieutenant just didn't have this stuff in his hands, because all alcohol was controlled in the rear, for fear that the army would drink and cause trouble, which made these old wine lovers very tempted.

"Comrade Second Lieutenant, we actually have no use for these wines. I really want to give them to you heroes who defend our country."

Hearing Lin Chen's words, hope suddenly ignited in the lieutenant's heart.

"But I only have one bottle. The rest of the wine is in the building in front. We really don't have the extra staff to deliver it to you." Lin Chen was still trying to persuade him.

The second lieutenant understood what this meant, but he was still hesitant. Wine is indeed a good thing, but his own life is more important. Military discipline in the army is no joke.

"Comrade Second Lieutenant, in fact, it is very normal for some things to be damaged occasionally during transportation. What do you think?" Lin Chen's words were already very blunt. If the other party still didn't understand, then he would have to change people.

"Yes, yes, yes! Sasha, Qiu Gnovich, both of you come here!" The second lieutenant seemed to have come to his senses and quickly called two confidants over.

"Comrade Second Lieutenant, do you have any instructions?" The two men ran over quickly and saluted.

"Did you leave any anti-tank weapons in the river during the escort?"

The two were puzzled and immediately answered in a low voice, "No, we counted them very clearly, nothing was left out."

The second lieutenant was very dissatisfied with the two men's slowness. He immediately glanced at the vodka in Lin Chen's hand and said loudly, "Why not? Just now, the German Stuka bomber almost overturned our ship, so a box of anti-tank rifles fell into the river and its whereabouts are unknown, isn't it?"

The two of them could become his confidants, especially in charge of logistics and transportation on the second line, so they naturally had some insight. Seeing their superiors so "abnormal", and then looking at the good stuff in Lin Chen's hand, how could they not understand? "Yes, yes, yes, just now under your wise command, we successfully saved most of the supplies, with only a slight loss!"

"Yes, I feel bad about the loss of supplies, but there is nothing I can do. This is war, and the loss is acceptable."

Seeing the three people singing in unison, Lin Chen was used to it, but Pavlov was stunned.

It turns out that this is how it can be done?

After several people's "cooperation", everyone got what they needed.

The second lieutenant and others took away most of the strong liquor, which is definitely good stuff!
Lin Chen got two PTRD-41 anti-tank rifles and dozens of large-caliber bullets for anti-tank rifles.

In fact, Lin Chen was very disappointed after seeing these two anti-tank guns, because the anti-tank capability of this weapon is very poor. It can only break 500 mm vertical armor within a distance of 25 meters. Among the German armored forces, the Type tank and other main armored vehicles exceeded this level.

But it’s better to have it than nothing!

What he wants most is actually an anti-tank gun, but at the moment, let alone a second lieutenant, even a major would not dare to give him such equipment.

But the second lieutenant was very considerate and gave them some urgently needed medicines, which are more precious than gold nowadays.

With these weapons and supplies, the people in the building finally gave up the idea of ​​escaping.

Pavlov placed the two anti-tank rifles in the safest position and never used them until the critical moment.

What he hoped most was that Chernogolov would bring reinforcements. As long as the reinforcements arrived, there would be great hope of holding this place!

At around 1 p.m., the main German force finally arrived. Through the telescope, Lin Chen saw about a battalion of German troops. It was terrible. The enemy not only brought several mortars, but also an assault gun.

What Lin Chen saw was the Type 3 Assault Gun F, which the German Army had just deployed to fight on the Eastern Front. It was built based on the chassis of the Type 3 tank.

这种突击炮的正面装甲达到了惊人的80毫米,同时把原来的Stuk75mm L/24火炮换成了75mm L/43火炮,防御力与火力都十分出色,1942年9月第一次参战便击毁了20余辆T-34,自身却没有损失。

Schumann spent a lot of money this time. He knew very well the importance of the assault gun assigned to him by the division commander. There were only 20 of this new weapon in the whole division. There were huge losses in continuous combat, and now it was estimated that only six or seven were available. This time he was assigned only one, which was specifically used to suppress the enemy's firepower in the building. This was definitely an overkill.

So he ignored the tension on other fronts and pieced together a battle group of more than 300 people, led by himself, with 4 mortars and more than a dozen light and heavy machine guns. He really couldn't imagine how the Soviet army in the opposite building could hold out with such a force and firepower.
He glanced at his watch. It was exactly 1:30 p.m., and the heavy artillery of the 171st Artillery Regiment of the division opened fire on time.

"Boom boom boom!"

The ground was shaking and the building was shrouded in smoke and dust.

When the impact point begins to extend backward,
"attack!"

Schumann waved his right hand and commanded the troops to press forward!
