Red Moscow

  Chapter 35 Successfully complete the task

  Under the cover of his comrades, Lin Hua successfully climbed to the side of the sacrificed Kofning. He looked at the several wires under his body, and wanted to cut them off with an axe, but after searching for a long time, he didn't see where the ax fell.

Seeing that the ax could not be found, Lin Hua decisively pulled out the grenade from his waist, ignited the fuse, and stuffed it under several wires. Beside Ce rolled a few steps and quickly left the dangerous area. After a loud bang, the dirt and snow near the bombing point were lifted into the air, and then scattered down like a goddess.

  At the same time, Vanya and two soldiers had just touched the vicinity of the bunker when they were discovered by the engineers in the bunker. An engineer rushed to the door and fired a submachine gun to prevent Vanya and the others from approaching.

  The two soldiers quickly lay down on the spot and fired back. Taking advantage of the enemy's firepower, attracted by his own fighters, Vanya, who was hiding behind a tree, threw a grenade over there. After the explosion, the engineer clutched his abdomen and stumbled out of the bunker. After walking a few steps, he knelt down on his knees with a plop. After a short pause, he fell forward into the snow.

  The engineer sergeant in the bunker saw that one of his subordinates had been killed, and several Soviet soldiers were rushing towards the bunker, and quickly ordered the blaster: "Detonate, detonate quickly!"

  Hearing the sergeant's order, the demolitionist hesitated and said, "Sergeant, don't detonate. We still have people on the dam."

   "It's too late." The sergeant said angrily, "The Russians are about to rush in. Hurry up, or it will be too late."

  The blaster glanced outside through the half-open wooden door, and sure enough, he saw three Soviet officers and soldiers approaching the bunker quickly under the cover of snowdrifts and trees. He took a deep breath, and then slammed down the detonator in his hand.

   The detonator was pressed, but the imaginary explosion sound did not sound, because the wire connecting the explosive had been broken by Lin Hua with a grenade. While the blaster was in a daze, two more grenades fell on the door and exploded, smashing the wooden door and killing the German sergeant who was hiding behind the door and shooting.

Vanya appeared at the door, and he swept the shuttle inside, killing the first and second machine gunners who were shooting wildly in front of the firing holes, and then roared extremely majesticly: "Hender Hoch!" The surviving blasters and the other An engineer obediently raised his hands in surrender.

   A row of soldiers who had been suppressed by the firepower of the German machine guns saw that the machine guns in the bunker suddenly became dumb. They immediately got up from the ground and rushed up with the guns in their hands.

  Vanya waited for Assia to rush over with the soldiers, and said anxiously to her: "Assia, ask these two captives how to dismantle the detonating device?"

  After gesticulating with the blaster for a long time, Assia said to Vanya, "Comrade Second Lieutenant, he said that he had detonated just now, but it was unsuccessful. It seems that there is a problem with the detonation circuit."

Hearing that the detonation circuit was faulty, Vanya said happily: "Thank God, fortunately, there is a problem with the German detonation circuit, otherwise it would be a problem whether the dam can be kept." The battle at the office was still going on, so he quickly said to his subordinates, "Leave two people to guard the prisoners, and the rest will follow me to help the company commander and them." He was worried that Assia would be in danger, and added, "Assia Stay too!"

  Although the number of enemies coming out of the dam was relatively large, due to the tenacious resistance of the soldiers in the second row, they were unable to advance even a single step. Seeing a platoon of soldiers coming for reinforcements, the enemy felt that they could not break through the Soviet defense and went to reinforce the engineers, so they retreated back to the dam.

  As the enemy retreated to the dam, Lin Hua was also rescued by the soldiers in the second row. Andre said to Lin Hua in a reproachful tone: "Comrade lieutenant, you are the commander of the company. Your duty is to stay on the ground and command the whole company, not to charge into the battle like a death squad."

  Lin Hua grinned and said, "Second platoon leader, I saw that the situation was too dangerous, so I rushed over without thinking too much."

  Vanya has already learned from the mouths of the soldiers in the second row what happened just now. Hearing what Lin Hua said, he couldn't help saying happily: "Fortunately, Comrade Company Commander was decisive and rushed to blow up the detonation wire of the German army, otherwise the dam would be finished."

  When Lin Hua and Andre heard what Vanya said, they couldn't help asking back in surprise: "Comrade Second Lieutenant, what happened?"

Before Vanya hurriedly led his men into the bunker, the German sergeant had issued an order to blow up the dam. Fortunately, the line had been blown up by Lin Hua, and the German detonation plot did not succeed. He told them in detail again.

"It's really dangerous." Hearing what Vanya said, Lin Hua couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat. He thought to himself that if he hadn't taken the risk of blowing up the line on a whim, the dam had already been blown up. Of course, the lives of the German troops in the dam were lost; and my group of people would also encounter accidents due to the sudden drop of the water level and the cracking of the ice surface.

Andrei saw two soldiers carrying Kovnin's body over, and asked with some puzzlement: "Comrade Lieutenant, I don't understand. The scout had already died at that time, why did you still hold his body? Roll away from the bomb site? Do you know that it is very dangerous for you to do so, even if you are not killed by enemy bullets, you may be killed by a grenade."

   "If I hadn't done that, his body might have been blown to pieces by a grenade." Lin Hua looked at Andre seriously and said, "This kind of situation must never happen in our company."

   At this moment, a series of red flares rose from the downstream of the dam. Seeing these flares, Vanya said in surprise: "Comrade company commander, our main force has arrived!"

   While the soldiers were cheering, Lin Hua thought to himself: Ever since I came to this world, I seem to have been performing various difficult tasks non-stop. If things continued like this, he might become Lieutenant Garrison in "Garrison's Expendables", leading a small team at any time to carry out dangerous missions behind the enemy's rear.

  In fairness, Lin Hua didn't want to become the second "Lieutenant Garrison". Not only was he in danger at any time, but also his room for advancement was very limited. After seeing Lieutenant Colonel Batrakov, we must have a good talk with him and let him arrange himself in a more suitable place.
