In the barrage of gunfire, an engineering tank was slowly moving forward. It stopped in the middle of the German position, and then hung up a plate of explosives that had been prepared there for a long time. The wrecking tank was ready as soon as possible, and then the engineers on the vehicle used the maximum voice they could pull out to remind the surrounding friendly forces: "blast! Watch out for the blast
"The engineers are clearing the barriers! Hold your helmet! Watch your step! Watch out for vibrations and shrapnel
"Whoosh! Whoosh Two dull sounds, rockets with * * flew to the far end, two white soft belt twisted spread in front of the two armies. The gunfire all around seemed to stop. There was only a quiet atmosphere between heaven and earth.
"Boom! Boom! Boom From the German position, the huge blasting began to extend continuously to the Soviet position, the soil was churned up, the mines were detonated and removed, the barbed wire was destroyed, the wooden piles nailed with wire flew into the air dozens of meters high, and then fell into the soft soil that had been blasted by the * *.
Before the Red Army of the Soviet Union reacted in the huge explosion, the second rocket clearing tank was ready, and started the second clearing along the route cleared by the first friendly clearing tank. Two rockets flew out one after the other and landed on the Soviet position, followed by a huge explosion.
"All right! Gentlemen! Now it's our turn! Grenadier! Charge A company commander with his G43 rifle, yelled to his soldiers, and then he took the lead to jump out of the trench, along the soft soil began to run forward, behind him, many German troops jumped out of the trench, toward the dangerous opposite, launched a charge.
In the woods behind them, a leopard tank smashed into a small tree and rushed out of its hiding place. Then out of the woods was an armored car with machine guns installed on it. The machine gunners on it were attacking each other with their own weapons, covering their own friendly infantry.
The earth is shaking, the blasting is still going on, the huge smoke is rising, and the third obstacle clearing tank is widening the safety channel opened up. The German obstacle clearing tank, which is quite efficient and practical, just like the Frederick rocket, left a very unforgettable deep impression on its opponent, the Soviet Union.
Then the second leopard tank came out of the forest. The long gun barrel was shooting fire. The other side's position was filled with explosion smoke. Many Soviet soldiers were in a rout.
He put down his telescope and served as the commander of the Grenadier unit of the first armored force. He looked up at the Tiger Tank listening to him, pointed to the front and said, "my Grenadier unit is opening the gap. Your flanking 1st Armored Division will follow and cover. I can only help you here, company commander Ryan."
"Thank you! I hope I can meet you again at gaigai railway bridge. " Ryan put his hand on the brim of his hat, then held down his throat phone and signaled all the members to start the tank and prepare for their marathon assault.
Next to the Tiger tank, five 150 mm self-propelled howitzers refitted from the chassis of No. 3 tank were wildly firing, pouring one shell after another scattered on the ground onto the position of the Soviet Red Army. These self propelled howitzers were the most mobile of the German artillery and one of goodrian's favorite weapons.
Along with the leopard tank, the No.3 assault gun and the assault leopard (the improved assault gun with leopard chassis) tore up the Soviet defense. The chaotic Soviet position was not hit by the German armored forces, and the whole defense line was collapsing. It was obvious that the Soviet commander had lost control of the battle. What they were struggling with was not how to stop the German attack, It's about who's the traitor.
The tanks of the 2nd platoon of the 1st company of the 502nd heavy tank destroyer battalion of the SS rushed out of the woods, followed by the first wave of armored attack force which had been far away, and advanced towards the position of the Soviet Union. Their tracks pressed on the soft soil that had been covered with tracks, bringing up some muddy soil.
As heavy tanks, they seldom fight in the second batch, because the reason for their existence is the same as that of heavy cavalry, they are prepared to break through the enemy. So they often directly face the enemy's bullets, but rarely follow others to reap the fruits of victory.
This time, however, they enjoyed it. There was no resistance in the position. The German tanks had torn a huge gap in their front. As long as they ran over the collapsed trench and drove through the burning village, they could see the railway line that needed them to move forward. Go along there and they will soon reach their final destination.
"Tank 111, follow our maintenance armored vehicle, it can ensure that we can quickly eliminate some minor faults, and ensure a faster moving speed." While watching the movement around through the periscope, Ryan reminds his teammates to protect the most vulnerable equipment in his team.
Soon nine tanks with a maintenance armored vehicle rushed into the burning village. On the side of the road lay a row of Soviet civilians who had just been executed. More than a dozen unarmed Soviet prisoners were digging the graves of these bodies under the custody of German grenadiers. Of course, it could be their own graves.
Raine lifted the tank's canopy and poked out his head. He saw two German soldiers carrying guns and carefully tearing apart a huge German flag on the roof of the only intact building. This place has been occupied. There is no doubt that the German army has successfully torn open the front defense system of the Soviet army. Hit a low wall, the first two rows of 122 tanks drove on the smooth road. On one side of the road, there were three German Leopard tanks with gray coating. This coating was the latest equipment, because winter was going to pass, so no white paint was used. The German grenadiers, who had just fought a fierce battle, were smoking on the leopard tank. On their dirty faces, their bright eyes looked through the shadow under the eaves of their helmets to see their friendly Tiger tanks passing by. These infantry know that their task has been completed, and the rest depends on these big guys with heavier armor. A German tank appeared on the road in the rear of the Soviet Union. Some defeated Soviet soldiers watched in horror as the German vanguard drove madly along the road. They did not dare to disturb such a German detachment composed of tanks, because they knew that they were not enough for these steel beasts“ Boom Tragedy still fell on the head of the advancing German armored detachment. The leading tank 122 of the second platoon crushed a Soviet mine, and the track and a loading wheel were completely scrapped“ I can't fix it! The track is easy to say, but the shock absorber inside the load-bearing wheel is broken. It's lucky that no one is injured. How can it be repaired in the field? " Several technical workers of the maintenance team took a look at the situation and concluded that the tank could only be left here in the end, waiting for the follow-up troops to catch up. Of course, the maintenance car didn't come up for nothing. Relying on the crane and winch above, plus the drag of another tank, the people in the second row took the tank off the road and hid it in a lower place on the side of the road. In order to ensure the safety of the tank, the 125 tank was left to cover the 122 tank, which was unable to move, until the large troops caught up. Soon, this special operation team continued to go on the road, but this time its strength was even weaker, with only seven tanks and a maintenance vehicle. This scene reminds Ryan of his first battle in Poland, when they ate a mine on the road, and then the whole company moved on. At that time, Poland had no decent armored force at all, and the poor Renault tank was not the opponent of German Leopard tank at all. At that time, there was no need to worry about war like now, and there was no need to worry about being hit in the head by the opponent carelessly. Compared with today, the war at that time was more like an outing, a hunting full of joy and conquest. Thinking of that time, he thought of the poor electrical engineer Clark and his company commander, Carter. A lot of familiar faces have disappeared. It is said that the ace car crew who were together in those years have made more and more achievements in the battle of carlus and weitman. It is also said that some people have died in places where they don't know their names. I have to sigh that the good times are gone forever. The Soviet tanks have caught up with the German tanks in the main performance. At least both sides have the possibility to defeat their opponents. Such a war seems more fair. Unfortunately, from the perspective of the German army, the last thing they want is fairness... Damned fairness! It was getting dark, and their team had been on the road for several hours. Because they encountered some harassment from the Soviet Army on the way and captured a small village of resistance, they only drove less than 40 kilometers. Early tomorrow morning, they must arrive at the railway bridge according to the regulations, otherwise, the Soviet army may take back there and cover their rout troops and flee back to the outskirts of Stalingrad“ Let's go all night! If we stop! It's very easy to run into the defeated Soviet troops. Maybe we have to fight a Sniper War here. " Said Ryan, looking at the slanting sun, leaning against the tank's canopy
