Chapter 1217: guerrillas
At the edge of the forest, less than 50 meters away from the road, the originally calm ground suddenly moved. A young man covered in thick snow got up from the ground. His body, head, even his eyebrows and beard were all covered with white snow, and his whole body completely merged with the surrounding snow. If you didn\'t look carefully, you wouldn\'t be able to tell the difference at all.
"Damn, why haven\'t the Germans come yet? If this continues, we will be frozen before the Germans come!" the young man said angrily.
In the snow not far from him, a head popped up. It was a middle-aged man hiding here.
"Okay, Ivan, the information says that a German convoy will definitely pass by this morning. We just have to wait patiently." The middle-aged man said.
"Yes, Uncle Vasily." The young man named Ivan said.
More and more people came out of the snow. These people were guerrillas operating in the forest. In order to fight against the German army, it caused more casualties to the Germans. Bu Russia specially sent people to organize a large number of guerrillas in the occupied areas. Most of these guerrillas are composed of rout soldiers and ordinary people. They lack weapons, especially heavy weapons such as machine guns, and their combat effectiveness is not strong. However, their special attacks on transportation lines or supply points forced the German army and its allies to allocate a large number of troops to protect the transportation lines and at the same time encircle and suppress these guerrillas. Otherwise, the supply of the front line will be greatly affected.
Winter is coming, and the life of these guerrillas is getting more and more difficult. They hid in the mountains or in the forest. When there was no food, they could only attack around and attack the German supply line so that they could grab food or clothing for the winter. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to survive the cold winter.
The German army also seized this opportunity and dispatched elite reconnaissance troops and special forces to encircle and suppress these guerrillas. Even if these guerrillas cannot be completely eliminated, at least their threat must be minimized. In this case, it will not have too much impact on the large-scale offensive after the arrival of spring.
Qin Tian didn\'t want his troops to attack Bu Russia, and the occupied area would be threatened by the vast Bu-Russian guerrillas. In that case, the strength of the German army will be greatly restrained. If you want to win the war, you may have to pay a higher price.
"Uncle Vasily, there is not much food in the village. After we robbed the German convoy, can we send some food to the village? Otherwise, people in the village will starve to death." Ivan said.
Vassily hesitated for a moment, and then said: "After the battle is over, I will report to the instructor comrade."
Not long after, a stumbling Russian ran out of the forest.
"Here we come, the Germans are coming. Seven trucks! We can pass here in 20 minutes at most!" The person who came was the scout of the guerrillas. He hid on a big tree in the forest and used a telescope to discover the German supply convoy ahead of time.
"Attention everyone, prepare to fight!" Vasily immediately gave the order.
The guerrillas lying in the snow were all focused and ready to fight. Although there are hundreds of people in this guerrilla team, almost all of them are rifles, except for one light machine gun. At most there are some grenades. If such a force fights recklessly with the German field troops, a single platoon of the German army can eliminate them all.
Time passed bit by bit, and soon a German convoy appeared on the road in the distance.
Seven trucks are driving on the muddy road with difficulty. These trucks are loaded with some food and clothing, which are transported to a military depot hundreds of kilometers away. A company of troops was stationed there, dedicated to protecting the supply lines.
In each truck, besides a driver, there are two soldiers.
The weather is cold, the temperature in the cab is a little higher, and the soldiers except the driver are a little drowsy. Perhaps these German soldiers did not expect that the Russians would ambush them in such cold weather.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a truck driving at the front was blown up. This was a landmine buried by the guerrillas on the road.
The explosion woke up the Germans on other trucks, and they immediately opened the doors and got out of the trucks to prepare for battle.
"hit!"
Vassily gave the order to fire, and the guerrillas who had been ready for a long time began to shoot.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The rifle started to fire, and the crisp gunshots spread far in the snow.
"Da da da!"
The guerrilla\'s only machine gun also fired.
Some German soldiers who were about to get off the car were hit on the spot and fell in the snow, dead dead. Blood flowed from their bodies, leaving a shocking red on the snow.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The rest of the German soldiers, relying on trucks, started firing at the guerrillas. At the same time, ask your superiors for support.
"We are the No. 112 supply convoy. We have been attacked by Russian guerrillas. The location is ***, requesting reinforcements!" The signaler is in contact with other German troops.
"Come on! Kill those Russians!" Vasily ordered.
Hundreds of guerrillas lying on the ground bravely rushed to the road.
"Puff! Puff!"
The marksmanship of the German soldiers is obviously much better than that of these guerrillas. Many guerrillas were shot and fell to the ground.
These guerrillas, except for a small number of routs, are mostly farmers. Before joining the guerrillas, they did not undergo formal training, which made them rely more on courage when fighting. Of course, this also makes their casualties on the battlefield very large.
"Da da da!"
A light machine gun started to fire at these guerrillas frantically, causing the attacking guerrillas to suffer heavy casualties. But even so, those guerrillas still charged bravely.
