"Boom!" A 75mm recoilless gun fired violently, and the muzzle burst out a shining flame and shot at a T-26 tank opposite.

Two seconds later, the tanks there sent out a violent explosion and the fire burst into the sky.

This seemed to be a signal. With the explosion of the tank, black smoke continued to emerge from the positions of the whole Soviet army.

"Da Da!" Markchin's heavy machine gun opened fire, and the tracer bullet crossed the sky and drew a straight line. At the end of the straight line were the Soviet soldiers sleeping next to the campfire.

Bullets hit the snow, chirping, and some hit people. People who had just been awakened from their sleep screamed loudly and looked at their frozen body, risking blood. This scene is frightening.

In the sound of markqin heavy machine gun, there are countless sound of submachine gun shooting. All automatic firepower are firing. It stretches for several kilometers next to the road laid out by the Soviet Union to march into the long snake array, all of which have become a battlefield.

There are gunshots everywhere, there are hisses before death everywhere. This night is no longer silent!

"Boom!" The explosion of another shell made Vinogradov lie on the ground in horror. The explosion just happened was near him!

"What's going on?" Vinogradov shouted, "come on, adjutant, report the situation!"

The adjutant quickly rushed in from the outside: "Sir, no, we are surrounded. All around us are Finns!"

Surrounded!

At this time, they had to believe the fact that they were surrounded by a large number of Finns on their march. Now, they will usher in the same fate as the 163 division!

"Come on, turn to defense on the spot. Come on, come on!" Vinogradov shouted, "where are our tanks? Fire! "

As if he had heard his cry, the driver of a T-26 tank was reacting quickly. He got into his cab and pressed the switch.

Come on, start!

He only heard the feeble gasp of the starter behind him. Hum, hum, a few times, he didn't move.

Again!

Buzz, buzz! Suddenly, a burning smell came out. No, the motor burned!

The cold weather has exceeded the starting ability of the engine. It is almost impossible to start by relying on the motor before baking with fire!

He climbed anxiously from the tank. When he opened the cover of the engine compartment behind him, he found that the water tank had expanded and a large ice tumor came out.

damn! When the engine was turned off, the water was not discharged! His tank engine has been frozen by the expanding ice!

He climbed out of his tank and looked at the captain running over: "come on, start the tank!"

"The engine is broken and can't be started!"

"Oh, no!" He watched with his own eyes the running car captain, who was swept down by a shuttle bullet behind him. The car captain fell in a pool of blood. The car captain raised his head and finally looked here. Under his body, there was a deep red.

"Finn, die!" In his hand, he picked up a DT machine gun and shot fiercely at the place where the fire had just burst out. Then he saw a more terrible scene.

A recoilless gun, fired at him! In the dark, the shell dragged an arc of light and flew towards him accurately!

"Boom!" The tank exploded violently. In the explosion, he felt his body drifting farther and farther. When he looked down, he found that his lower half of his body was burning on the tank. Then, his brain became dark.

The battle did not last long, but the casualties of the Soviet army were great.

Sitting in his temporary tent, Vinogradov looked gloomy.

"This is definitely not an ordinary guerrilla! They have cannons and heavy machine guns. There are thousands of them. Obviously, the Finns have mobilized the main force of the army to besiege us! " Vinogradov said, "now, we must turn to defense on the spot!"

"However, sir, we are less than ten kilometers away from the 163 division. If we continue to move forward, we should be able to meet the 163 division in half a day." A subordinate said.

Vinogradov shook his head: "no! There must be more traps ahead of us. The road may be destroyed. Now we have too much loss to move forward. "

On this day, too many changes have taken place in Vinogradov's heart. From the beginning, he was complacent and hoped to make achievements and get promoted to the top. Up to now, he has no confidence.

Before he finished the task, he suffered great losses. At the same time, he was timid in his heart.

He did not dare to advance any further. He would die in a war. If his troops lost too much, he could not make a job.

However, if he goes back like this, it's even worse. He can almost imagine that as long as he goes back, his life will be over. Therefore, he made the stupidest decision and stayed where he was!

If he continues to move forward, he can join the 163 division and twist it into a rope. If he is afraid, he can go back and reduce casualties. Now, he ordered to stay in place and turn to defense!

The Great Purge made the Soviet lose too many excellent commanders. Vinogradov, like him, commands only one platoon at most. Now, he wants to command a division!

At this time, the surroundings had calmed down, but Vinogradov was afraid in his heart. He didn't dare to move forward or retreat. He didn't know that his hesitation really destroyed the army!

In the middle of the night, snowflakes floated again. The Soviet army did not rest. They were digging on the frozen soil with all their strength and doing defensive works. In the cold weather, the work was tired and irritable.

At this time, in the woods only a few kilometers away from them, the attacking troops had returned.

They untied their sledge on the spot and soon put up a warm tent.

These tents can be folded. After folding, they can be conveniently transported in a small boat like sled called "akhio". This kind of sled is pulled by three skiers, and there is a person behind to keep the balance of the sled while skiing.

A wood burning stove was built in the tent, and soft pine branches were covered under it. Even on the coldest night, 20 people in the tent would feel very warm.

"Today, our goal has been achieved. We have frightened the Soviets. They have lost their last chance." Lieutenant Colonel mckinemi said, "as long as we continue to delay the Soviets here, our large forces will arrive slowly. Especially, when our artillery arrives, it is the time to completely encircle and annihilate the Soviets."
