The leader of the team was Captain Grissa, the fourth company commander, who was always suppressed by the German firepower in a crater and could not look up. The grenades thrown by the German army exploded around him, and the soil and broken limbs and broken arms raised by the air waves, as well as some parts of the gun, kept falling on him.
Since his injury last time, Captain Grissa has missed many important battles. Otherwise, with his qualifications and abilities, he is now at least a captain and battalion commander. Therefore, when the regiment commander Yershakov handed over the task to the second battalion, he found the battalion commander Major Andre and took the initiative to undertake the main attack mission.
Now he saw his company being suppressed by the enemy's firepower and unable to advance at a position of only about 30 meters away from the trench, and casualties were increasing. He turned his head and said to the correspondent corps lying beside him: "Contact the battalion commander immediately and let them cover the enemy's trench with rockets to cover our company's attack."
Then after shouting for a long time, the communication soldier was still lying there and did not seem to hear Grissa's shouting at all. Grissa shouted twice, but the communication soldier still didn't move, so he was so angry that he pushed the other party hard.
With this push, the communications soldier turned over and then Grissa saw clearly that the other party had blood on his head and shoulders, and it turned out that he had been shot and died. In desperation, Grissa could only reach out and grab the telegraph phone on the telegraph phone on the telegraph phone. He didn't care about the code and code words, and said directly to the telegraph: "Battery Commander, Battalion Commander, I am Grissa, I am Grissa."
Soon, the voice of battalion commander Andre came from the headphones: "Grissa, I see that your troops are suppressed by the German firepower, and it seems that they cannot continue to attack. I order you to immediately take the troops down, complete the assembly again, and then attack the enemy."
"No, comrade battalion commander." Grissa shouted loudly at the sending machine: "The enemy's firepower is too strong. If we retreat at this moment, we will definitely suffer huge casualties."
"What should I do?" Andre said anxiously: "If you continue to stay there, you will be destroyed by the enemy. Otherwise, I will put the fifth and sixth companies into battle. In this way, the enemy will have no time to take care of you. It will be much easier for you to continue attacking or retreating."
"Comrade Battalion Commander, if he invested too much force in such a narrow front, it would be difficult to achieve the offensive effect except for increasing casualties."
Seeing that Grissa rejected both of his proposals, Andre couldn't help but get angry: "Is it the battalion commander, or the company commander, the battalion commander? Tell me, what should I do?"
"Use new rockets to cover the enemy's trenches with firepower." Grissa said anxiously: "This may suppress the enemy and cover us to rush forward."
"Grissa, are you crazy?" Andrey suddenly became angry when he heard the proposal proposed by Grissa: "You are only twenty or thirty meters away from the enemy's trenches. If you attack with rockets, you may hurt your own people."
"Comrade Battalion Commander, it's too late, give orders quickly." Grissa said anxiously at the sender: "My company is constantly suffering from casualties under the enemy's firepower. If you don't take action, we are in danger of being wiped out."
"Well, Captain Grissa." Andre said sadly: "You let the soldiers hide, we're about to fire rockets."
After finishing the call, Grissa risked being shot, poked half of his body out of the crater and shouted to the left and right: "Lying down, lying down for me!" After shouting, he retracted back into the crater; after more than ten seconds, he leaned out and continued to shout.
Captain Andre at the foot of the mountain ordered people to find rocket launchers and ordered them to bombard the German trenches on the hillside. At the same time, he repeatedly reminded them: "Comrades, please, we have our comrades above. You must be careful when launching, and don't hurt them."
"Gay Major," said Corporal Minishki, the rocket launcher, with a bitter face when he heard Andre's orders: "You also know that the new rockets are powerful, but they are not accurate enough. We can only do our best to hope that those brothers in front of the enemy's positions will have good luck."
After saying that, Corporal Minishki said to his subordinates: "Disassemble the launcher and use a single-tube or double-tube launch to bombard the enemy's trenches."
When the rocket launchers heard Corporal Minishki's words, they quickly dismantled the six-tube rocket launchers that had been prepared and changed to double-tube or single-tubes. After loading the rockets, they waited for Corporal Minishki to give orders.
"emission!"
With the order issued, seven or eight rockets flew out from the two- or single-tube launch tubes, dragging their long flame tails toward the German positions on the top of the mountain.
After a shocking explosion, the top of the mountain was once again covered by gunpowder. However, the gunshots that had been constantly ringing suddenly stopped. Seeing that there was no gunshot on the top of the mountain, Andre called Corporal Minishki and asked, "Corporal, what's going on? Why is there no movement on the top?"
"Maybe they were all killed by rockets, right?"
Hearing the answer from Corporal Minishki, Andrey, who was worried about Grissa's safety, could no longer sit still. He jumped out of the trench, raised his pistol, and shouted to the soldiers hidden in other places: "Brothers, follow me!"
"Ula!" Andre's shouting stopped just now, and there was a tsunami behind him. Then hundreds of soldiers stood up from their hidden places and rushed towards the hillside with guns.
Although Andre was the first to start charging, he was soon surpassed by more and more soldiers. Scattered gunshots came from the smoke in the distance. Andrey's ears were sharp, and he could tell that the Soviet army's Popov submachine gun and Mosinnagan rifle were shooting, indicating that there were still many soldiers in the Fourth Company who survived.
By the time Andre rushed to the top of the mountain, the battle was basically over.
Stepping on the soft-fried soil, smelling the bloody smoke, and looking at the corpses all over the ground, he couldn't help but shout loudly: "Captain Grissa, where are you? Captain Grissa, where are you?"
"Comrade Battalion Commander, Captain Grissa is here!" Just as Andre was extremely anxious, he suddenly heard someone shouting not far away, "Captain Grissa is still alive."
Looking at the clay man who was being carried by two soldiers, Andre took a long time to know that this person was Grissa whom he was eager to find. He stepped forward and grabbed the other party's shoulder and said loudly: "Good thing, Captain Grissa, if it weren't for you, we wouldn't have taken the enemy's position so quickly."
"Report to the battalion commander," Grissa, who knew that after standing upright, replied dyingly, "Your rockets were shot too accurately, almost two-thirds of them were smashed into the enemy's trenches,..."
The soldiers beside Grissa saw Andre's face blank, and quickly explained to him: "Comrade Battalion Commander, Captain Grissa's ears were deaf, and he couldn't hear clearly what you were saying."
