Chapter 1678 Continuous attrition(2/3)

Olga grabbed Wei Ran's arm, "He is the only doctor on our island, or even on our three islands, who can perform surgery. He can't take risks, so let me go."

"The camp and the sentry tower are next to each other, so the level of danger is the same."

Wei Ran gently opened the opponent's hand, "Besides, I can see who is injured more clearly from the sentry tower, so I'll do it."

"Can..."

"I'm not always up there."

Wei Ran said, "I promise, I will come down as soon as I find the plane and issue the warning. It's not far from the shack in the first place."

"Okay..." Olga finally let go of Wei Ran's arm.

"I will leave it to you to take care of Yulia."

After Wei Ran finished speaking, he quickened his pace and walked towards the sentry tower. He wanted to check on Yuri's condition.

Climbing up the guard tower again, Yuri was busy repairing the almost broken guard tower with wooden boards and nails, and his mood was unexpectedly calm.

"I took over Sonia's job"

Wei Ran said, "Yuri, assign me tasks."

Turning to look at Wei Ran, Yuri continued to work on nailing the boards and asked, "How is your eyesight? Can you see clearly at night?"

"able"

Wei Ran replied, "I don't have night blindness."

"Noon to midnight"

Yuri said, "You can start guarding after I repair this place. I will come to take your place at night."

"no problem"

Wei Ran paused, then asked worriedly, "Yuri, you..."

"It's okay, I'm okay."

Yuri banged the nails hard and replied, "There is no time to be sad now. The German planes will definitely come again. Victor, go and rest now. Watching is a very hard job."

"I'll take over for you at noon."

Wei Ran left the other party alone space, grabbed the rope and slid to the ground, and then walked into the shack that served as the operating room.

At this time, Yulia was still lying on the operating table, and Olga was busy steaming and sterilizing the surgical instruments.

"Isn't Sasha here?" Wei Ran asked.

"He just came to see Yulia," Olga replied, "and now he's going to help you find canned bombs."

Hearing this, Wei Ran silently left the shack, and then saw Jionya leading the artillery crew members to continue repairing the broken bunker with ice and snow.

However, the ice and snow bunker, which is less than shoulder height, cannot follow the rotation of the anti-aircraft machine gun, and it cannot be built too high, otherwise it will block the shooting range.

In other words, this ring of ice and snow fortress, which is fully one meter thick, can hardly block the ground-licking bullets fired from the directional machine guns, in addition to being able to somewhat block the shell fragments that may fall around.

Seeing that Igor, who had an injured hand, was helping to carry water from the ice cave to the position, Wei Ran also used the cover of his backpack to take out the engineer shovel from the metal book to help them strengthen their defenses - even if it was not too big.

The use of.

"I don't know if Uncle Seryozha can bring back the artillery shield."

Andre was the first to break the silence, "If there was a shield, maybe Yulia wouldn't be injured."

"Even without artillery shields, we must continue fighting."

Kneeling in the snow, Lisa slapped the accumulated snow on the bunker with a wooden board and said, "I would rather die here than let the Germans drop bombs on the ice road."

"How long have you not been in contact with him?" Jonia asked abruptly.

Hearing this, Lisa glanced at Wei Ran, who was helping to shovel the snow, "The journalist comrade brought his letter the day he came, but I haven't had time to reply, but as long as I know he is still alive, I will be satisfied."

"Your boyfriend?" Wei Ran asked.

"yes"

Lisa answered very calmly, "We are classmates. He and Sergey, like Vanya and the others, are transporters, but he drives a combat sled. Do you know about combat sleds?"

"I know." Wei Ran nodded, of course he knew that kind of thing.

"Victor, how about taking a picture for me?"

Lisa straightened up and asked, "Just take pictures of me right here, so that if I die, at least I can leave him a photo. I'm not afraid of death, but I can't accept him after I die."

Falling in love with another woman again."

"I can take pictures for you, but you have to hand them over to him in person." Wei Ran said seriously, "Leave him alive and healthy."

"I promise you"

Lisa showed a bright smile, then took off her heavy gloves, pulled off her white scarf and took off her hat, revealing her long golden hair.

"Please wait for me"

Lisa said, taking out a comb from her pocket, combing her hair carefully, and then sat on the fortress, posing with Lake Ladoga behind her as the background.

"Do you often take pictures?" Wei Ran said while pressing the shutter towards the other person.

"My mother is a photographer in a photo studio"

Lisa replied, "Have you ever been to Leningrad? She works in that photo studio on Nevsky Prospekt."

"I've been to Leningrad, but I didn't pay attention to the photo studio on Nevsky Prospekt."

Wei Ran said apologetically, "Has your mother left Leningrad?"

"Left"

Lisa pointed in the distance and said happily, "She is also a traffic officer. The letter I received said that my mother is still alive."

"I'm done"

Wei Ran shook the camera in his hand, "But I hope you can personally send the photos to the people who need them."

"I hope so"

Lisa said, stuffing her hair into the cotton coat again and putting on her hat, scarf and gloves. She picked up the piece of wood again and continued to beat the snow on the fortress.

"Do you want me to take a picture of you too?" Wei Ran asked Jioniya.

"I'll forget it"

Jonia refused casually, "I don't have anyone who needs to send photos."

"Can't Yuri?" Andre asked with a wink.

"Crack!"

Jionya threw a snowball at the opponent's face to express her attitude, but Wei Ran pressed the shutter in time and successfully completed the capture.

"I will tell Yuri that here is a photo that Jonya gave him."

Wei Ran quickly added before Jonia threw the snowball at him, "I hope this will make him happy."

Hearing this, Jonia threw the snowball at her feet and said nonchalantly, "Then give it to him."

"Comrade reporter, take a picture of me too!" Andre said.

"Do you also have someone you want to send photos to?" Wei Ran said, motioning for the person to sit on the cannon.

"Of course!" Andre said stupidly, "but I can't tell you who I want to give it to."

After saying that, he still couldn't hold it back, took off his gloves and wiped the corners of his eyes.

"I'll take a good picture of you"

As he spoke, Wei Ran raised the camera again and took a photo of the other person hiding his sadness with a bright smile. He might be as sad as Yuri, or even sadder than Yuri.

"Igor, what about you?" Wei Ran shook the camera, "Let me take a picture of you too."

"I don't have a girl I like..."

"Yes, you will always meet a girl you like in the future."

Andre said, "Anyway, comrade reporters, let's take a picture of him too."

With that said, Andrei had already invited Igor to sit in the gunner's position, and kindly helped him hide his hand in his inner sleeve.

After taking photos of Igor, Wei Ran simply took another group photo of the newly formed gun crew.

Just at this time, Sasha also pulled a cart full of can bombs back on a sled, and shouted loudly from a distance, "Comrade reporter, I found a lot of can bombs!"

"It seems I can't help you anymore"

"It doesn't matter, I hope your bomb can still explode so many fish today." Igor, who had already picked up the iron bucket again, said expectantly.

"I hope so," Wei Ran said, taking his engineer shovel and leaving the position.

Returning to the edge of his own shack, Wei Ran couldn't help but feel dizzy when he saw Sashala's sleigh coming back. There were at least sixty or seventy can bombs on this sleigh.

"Where did all this come from?" Wei Ran couldn't help but ask.

"We used to throw can bombs into a bear cave when we encountered them," Sasha explained. "Ruslan and I just dug out all the can bombs inside."
