Chapter 26 The First Wave of Casualties

The perspective temporarily leaves Wang Zhong.

After Brother Yetsemenko settled down at the shooting position arranged by Egorov, he glared at Lyudmila: "Captain Melekhovna, your boyfriend really takes care of you."

Lyudmila's full name is Lyudmila Vasilyevna Melehovna.

The girl frowned: "In Ronezh, we did only shoot one magic arrow before the smoke blocked our vision. He is right."

Yezemenko: "I heard that he peed his pants as soon as the war started! How can he have the tactical knowledge to point out problems? No, no, he just doesn't want you to be in danger!"

Lyudmila: "But he led us out of the encirclement, didn't he? Although he is usually uneducated and incompetent, but..."

"How can an ignorant playboy suddenly become a military genius? No, there is absolutely no such possibility! I will write down all his orders today in the battlefield diary, absolutely!

"If our mission in Haute Penier cannot be completed, he will not be able to escape the blame!"

In fact, the task of guarding Upper Peniye for 38 hours was assigned to the 31nd Battalion of the st Tank Regiment of the th Tank Army. The rd Rear Amur Regiment and Yezemenko's Divine Arrow Group did not have the obligation to hold on here.

But Wang Zhong still gave the order to stick to it and regarded it as the task of the entire army.

No one had any objections, even those who knew that the order was given to the 31nd Battalion of the st Regiment didn't say anything. Maybe the troops had suppressed their anger when they saw the atrocities committed by the Prosens during their escape.

**
As for Wang Zhong, he is so confused now that his brain can only operate on a single thread and cannot think too much at all.

Back in the manager's office of the winery, Wang Zhong drank a large glass of water, but his mouth still felt dry.

"Water!" he shouted.

One of the two privates who had just carried his stretcher immediately assumed the responsibility of an orderly and brought Wang Zhong a large glass of water.

At this time, Chief of Staff Pavlov led someone through the door. Seeing Wang Zhong's appearance, he said, "You should follow the field hospital and retreat, right?"

Wang Zhong: "The field hospital is here?"

"Already arrived."

Wang Zhong: "Ask them to give me penicillin and fever-reducing medicine! Also, ask them not to retreat in enemy trucks, but to use carriages from local fellows. Hire as many fellows as possible!"

By the time the fellows drove the field hospital to the rear in carriages, Upper Penier was probably occupied by the enemy, so even if they were reluctant, the fellows would have no choice but to retreat with the troops.

Staff Officer Pavlov: "I'll ask the secretary to see how many rubles are left..."

"You can't make an idle note? What a stupid pig!" Wang Zhong felt very bad, so he had a bad temper.

When Pavlov saw this, he said "I'll make arrangements" and ran away. Only a few staff officers were left in the room to accompany Wang Zhong.

Wang Zhong: "Get me a radio station and ask what the radio call signs of several tanks are!"

The staff officers looked at each other, and the communications staff officer said, "I'm going to find Captain Lubokov of the tank unit right now."

Lubokov came a moment later, and frowned when he heard Wang Zhong's question: "Every enemy tank may have a radio, but we only have a radio in my command vehicle."

Wang Zhong looked at the sky and said helplessly: "Okay, tell me your call sign and I will direct you by radio."

Although Wang Zhong had no actual experience in tank combat, he relied on his experience playing games to realize how much advantage his bird's-eye perspective had in close-quarter urban combat.

Among other things, he can see the direction in which the enemy tank's gun barrel is pointing from an overhead perspective. Anyone who has played World of Tanks and been taught by the gun barrel pointing knows what this means.

Lubokov: "My call sign is tactical number 420."

Wang Zhong: "Okay, I'll use this to command you."

Lubokov looked around with a puzzled look on his face: "You...are taking command here?"

Wang Zhong: "Of course not. When the war starts, I will move to a place with a clear view. Just listen to my orders and follow them. Go ahead."

Lubokov saluted, turned and left.

When he went out, a tall man with glasses wearing a red cross armband entered the room: "I heard someone wants antibiotics?" Wang Zhong: "I want it. Are you?"

"I am Dr. Raskolnikov, your lordship. I saw you in the salon."

Wang Zhong: "Oh, okay, hello, Dr. Russ."

"Raskolnikov." The doctor corrected him and came to Wang Zhong. He said "I'm sorry" and put his hand on Wang Zhong's forehead. "Your condition is very bad. You should be sent to the rear as soon as possible, why not Just follow the field hospital and retreat."

Wang Zhong: "No! I will not give up my troops!"

In fact, according to Wang Zhong's original goal-that is, to save his life-he should choose to retreat now, but in his confusion, he just wants to beat up Germany with his troops. No, it's the Prosen Japs.

The doctor was a little moved: "I...I'm sorry, I didn't know you still have this side."

"Do you think I'm a playboy? I only wet my pants on the battlefield?" Wang Zhong was furious.

His single-threaded brain now only has one thought: "I'm not the one who peed their pants. Everyone is blaming me for this!"

So he started to get furious: "No! I'm not that kind of coward! I'll let you know! Anyone who mentions sending me to the rear is collaborating with the enemy! Because you know that I will beat the enemy here, so I tried every means Send me away!"

The doctor was also frightened by Wang Zhong's sudden anger. He took a step back and said, "Sorry, don't shoot me."

The news about Wang Zhong's shooting of the local aristocratic butler has spread. In addition, he had previously shot a fake bishop and a fake inquisitor. The troops were spreading the news that "Count Rokosov will kill anyone who is suspected of being an enemy."

Wang Zhong: "Medicine! Then quickly take the fellow's carriage and get away!"

The doctor immediately opened his bag and took out a pile of medicines and put them on the table.

Wang Zhong didn't ask how to eat. He took the bottle, opened it, threw several slices into his mouth, and drank the water.

At this time, there was a gunshot outside, which sounded very far away.

Wang Zhong immediately switched to a bird's-eye view and turned his attention to the hillside on the west side - the hill where Lubokov's tanks were initially guarding.

The observation post left by Sergeant Major Gregory was firing.

Through their field of vision, they could see Prosen's armored forces moving in on the main road.

Wang Zhong counted at least twenty Panzer III tanks and the same number of half-tracks, driving past the wreckage of the truck he left behind.

The roar of the engine could be heard clearly even from the sky.

The tank at the front had more antennas than the other tanks. When Wang Zhong zoomed in slightly, he could clearly see that the tank's tactical number was 141, and there was an eagle emblem next to the number.

There is no such eagle emblem on other tanks. Wang Zhong guessed that this may be the symbol of the commander's vehicle.

If you look closely at the officer who pokes his head out of the turret of Tank No. 141, you can also see a red and gold decorative collar on the officer's collar.

If you look closely, you will see that the officer is actually a one-eyed dragon!

The taste of virtue, the taste of virtue is too strong.

The cyclops commander's mouth moved, so No. 141 stopped and the turret began to rotate.

The next moment, Wang Zhong seemed to hear the sound of "FIRE" in German, and flames and thick smoke spewed from the tank's muzzle.

Almost at the same time, Wang Zhong lost his vision, and neither the tank nor the half-track could be seen.

He quickly zoomed in and saw a dust cloud rising from the mountain, and the two scouts were completely engulfed by the dust cloud.

What the hell? Did this man see the scout who fired the warning shot?

Wang Zhong suddenly had a bad feeling.

He switched back to the original perspective and shouted to the doctor: "Let's go! The enemy is about to attack. Let's go!"
