Chapter 191: Chapter 138 [Solo Xiajin Campaign] Shen Yan Tormented by Zhao Ming as a "Japanese Soldier" (6,200 Words Combined)_2
The several Special Force Battalion warriors nearby, after killing the Imperial soldiers each was fighting with,
reloaded the ammunition-depleted guns.
From the afternoon till now, two hours of battle, everyone’s ammunition was already exhausted.
The station changed hands four times.
The first commanding officer of the defense they saw, Yefapier, was already dead, now his adjutant took over, but there’s a bit of good news that due to the importance of the Central Station,
troops would cross the Volga River at night to provide reinforcements. ƒreewebɳovel.com
After all, this is currently the most crucial channel within Stalingrad to maintain material transport.
Only Shen Yan was unsure whether they could hold on until then.
Two hours’ time.
Half of his Special Force Battalion was already dead.
And this was under the circumstance of having Soviet Union soldiers cooperating.
Otherwise, with just his people, they might have been wiped out during the second wave of the station battle; the intensity of the fight didn’t differ from previous scenarios, mainly due to the lack of rest time.
Having just repelled the Imperial soldiers, they were immediately covered by artillery fire, followed by another wave of troops pressing forward.
Ammunition could only be replenished from the enemy, but the replenishment speed far lagged behind the consumption rate, resulting in now, he and the soldiers of Special Force Battalion had to resort to bayonet fights with the armed Imperial soldiers.
Fortunately, back in the Republic narrative of the Xiajin Campaign, there was no shortage of bayonet fighting practice.
Otherwise, many more would have died.
After replenishing the ammunition, Shen Yan loaded his gun and quickly moved with his men within the Central Station.
....
In the evening.
19:53.
The station had changed hands seven times.
Due to continuous bombardment, many of the shelters were destroyed.
No choice.
The soldiers of Special Force Battalion, along with the soldiers of the Soviet Union, started moving the bodies of Imperial soldiers and their own, piling them into makeshift shelters to shield themselves, ready to fight at any moment.
Both sides’ soldiers were tense to the extreme, even a slight disturbance would make them jumpy.
In the silent waiting hall.
Suddenly, a clinking sound came from outside the wall, causing Company Commander Qin Xu of the Second Company to change his expression:
"Are those engineers?!"
"They’re going to blow up the wall!"
To aid in defense, some important channels and stairs had already been destroyed from the Soviet side, preventing the Imperial soldiers from getting close, but now if the wall is breached,
exposure directly in front of the Imperial tanks and artillery will spell disaster.
Qin Xu gritted his teeth, ordered the collection of grenades and explosives, and charged out with the remaining two squads of the Second Company.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!
....
At night.
21:17.
The clattering of tank tracks crushing rubble echoed around the Central Station, as the Imperial armored units came to reinforce, scouting for any suspicious targets within the station.
Boom——!
A shell blasted out, causing the precarious wall to collapse, revealing the Soviet soldiers and Special Force Battalion warriors hiding inside.
Seeing the wall collapse.
Company Commander of the First Company, Fang Hui, cursed under his breath, with no hesitation grabbing the bundled grenades nearby; while the dust hadn’t settled, the Imperial soldiers in the moonlight hadn’t approached yet.
Crawled close to the wall, he looked at the tank just a stone’s throw away.
Suddenly stood up and limped out of the smoke, rolling under the tank, the nearby Imperial soldiers shouted in panic and anger.
Boom!
The explosion expanded under the tank, rendering it inoperational.
Meanwhile, a few injured soldiers hidden in the rubble raised their guns to start firing, but quickly fell silent under concentrated Imperial fire.
Viewed from above,
the Central Station’s surroundings were already encircled by Imperial tanks and armor, inching towards the station as if devouring it.
This was already the ninth wave of the fight Shen Yan and others engaged in.
The high-intensity combat left not many of the Special Force Battalion, with most of the company commanders already sacrificed; if gathered together for a count, roughly about 40 or more remained.
However, the Soviet Union reinforcements had also arrived.
Under the moonlight,
the soldiers who crossed the Volga River in force were tirelessly rushing towards the Central Station.
....
Late night.
22:05.
In a corner of the Central Station’s waiting room, Shen Yan leaned against the wall, breathing heavily. Beside him, Liu Feng handed over a cigarette found on a corpse from who knows where, took a couple of puffs, and felt a rush:
"Cough, cough...this stuff is quite strong."
"Does Polestar sell this?"
Liu Feng looked at the cigarette in his hand, clearly something obtained by a long-time smoker:
"Probably not."
Shen Yan took a few more puffs, refreshing himself, then raised his trembling hand to discard the cigarette, the sounds of gunfire outside persisted; fortunately, with the reinforcements from the Soviet Union forces, they had a momentary respite:
"Which time is this?"
Liu Feng paused for a moment, then replied:
"Possibly the 12th time."
Shen Yan’s mouth twitched, shifting slightly, aggravating the wound on his leg, he lightly inhaled:
"Damn, it seems endless."
"How many are left?"
Liu Feng looked around, at the Special Force Battalion warriors replaced by the Soviet troops, and replied:
"Just these over 10 people left."
"They’re all here."
As soon as the words fell, a series of explosions and shouts of ’Ura’ came from outside.
Boom! Boom! Boom——!
Shen Yan and the others felt a heaviness in their hearts, packed up their things, and prepared to rejoin the battle.
Not long after.
During the 12th battle for the Central Station, Shen Yan and the soldiers of the Special Force Battalion were all killed.
