Chapter 867

Behind a collapsed wall, a Soviet T-34 tank was moving forward. It aimed the heaviest front of its armor at the German position, then increased its horsepower and knocked down the broken outer wall of the building in front of it. The broken walls collapsed, and some of the stones fell on the fender of the T-34 tank, while others fell on the sloping front armor plate.

After the T-34 tank pushed down the wall, it suddenly opened fire towards the German position. A shell hit the position in the distance and exploded. A cloud of black smoke rose. The German attack was suppressed by the sudden appearance of the tank.

"One of the enemy's tanks is fighting back at our position! Ask for support A German Grenadier's company commander yelled at the radio. He himself felt very frustrated, because in the original army, this kind of situation was usually solved by himself. But now he is ordered to transfer to the N group army to bring a new company, so this kind of situation facing the enemy's tanks is not something that his company can solve.

"Boom!" The Soviet tank also seems to find that the German army on the opposite side is not the same as the German army it encountered before, and its combat effectiveness is much worse, so it is even more arrogant. Besides, behind this tank, the second Soviet T-34 tank rushed out of the field ± For a time, it began to benefit the Soviet garrison.

"Hell! Tell the soldiers in row 1! Retreat! Retreat The company commander quickly yelled to the nearby signalmen: "shrink the line of defense! Watch the flanks of the troops! Ask platoon 2 to hold their ground and wait for platoon 1 to retreat before they can retreat! "

Just as he tried his best to organize the troops to hold on to his position, the Soviet Army on the opposite side was also depressed to face their own problems. Before the planned attack, they were attacked by German artillery. Four shells fell on their starting position. A prepared attack was easily defeated by the German.

Although the German army had killed three or four soldiers by two T-34 tanks, the Soviet army had killed about 20 people because of a round of shelling. There were a lot of corpses lying on the battlefield. The rest of them were trapped in simple trenches and did not dare to continue to attack.

When two German soldiers escaped from the trench and were knocked down on the ground by the machine gun on the T-34 tank, the German infantry finally broke down under pressure, the number of casualties began to rise, and more than a dozen German soldiers lost their lives on the way of rout and escape.

No matter how the infantry company commander who used to be the leader of the Grenadier platoon stopped the retreat of these German soldiers from Ukraine and other chaotic places, all he could do was to lead more than 20 real German grenadiers in the whole company and try his best to cover the withdrawal of these new soldiers.

The defeat of the German army finally stopped after three leopard tanks arrived at the battlefield. An armor piercing bullet whistled over the defeated German army and hit the T-34 tank in the distance. It turned the Soviet tank that seemed invincible just now into a burst of fire. All of a sudden, the German army lost its armor and recovered its courage, After getting a new infantry company to strengthen, they rushed back to the position they had just lost.

Compared with veterans, the combat effectiveness of these soldiers is very limited, but even after a whole platoon is killed and more than 30 soldiers are killed, the company still does not need to be replaced, which is very rare. At least the higher German commanders don't have to worry about losing too many troops, because it's very easy to replenish them.

The N group army has at least 100000 additional soldiers. Until these 100000 additional soldiers are used up, tricheler does not have to worry that excessive consumption will lead to the loss of combat capability of his group army. Compared with the consumption of front-line troops, he was more concerned about when his group army could enter the urban area of Stalingrad, because he knew that only by entering the urban area of Stalingrad would the real test come.

The second T-34 tank in the chaotic and potholed position finally failed to withstand the joint ravages of the three leopard tanks and turned into a burning scrap iron. By the burning scrap iron side of the regiment, a newly established German machine gun position was covering its own infantry and launching a new round of attack on the Soviet position.

German tanks, if not necessary, would not enter the urban areas and fight against the Soviet army where their sight was restricted. So the three leopard tanks left the war zone after killing the two T-34 tanks that the Soviet Army rushed out of the position.

This is the tactics now used by the German armored forces. They split their troops into several support units to support infantry in anti tank operations on the periphery. The main purpose was to help the infantry who were lack of training in armored operations, and to kill the Soviet tanks participating in the counterattack.

Leopard tanks use the method of leaving after fighting to avoid participating in the street battle, thus avoiding unnecessary losses. These German crew members are not elite, so they effectively accumulated combat experience, but also effectively annihilated the Soviet armored forces.

The Soviet Army on the opposite side did not firmly defend their positions because they were worried that the German tanks would suddenly attack. When the German army launched the attack, they chose to retreat back into the nearby houses and temporarily gave up their positions to the German army.

A German veteran jumped into the ditch abandoned by the Soviet Union and pointed his weapon at the retreating Soviet army. He pulled the trigger in his hand, and the bullet flew to the enemy and easily knocked down two Soviet soldiers. Just like the German defeat just now, the Soviet tanks took advantage of the opportunity to cover up and kill. They often held their positions and did not cause too many casualties. After the defeat, the number of casualties began to increase rapidly. The Soviet Army gave up its position, and now it was the turn of the German army to fight back and start their massacre. As more German troops jumped into the trenches and prepared to shoot, the Soviet troops who fled to the city were knocked down. In such a short time, the German troops may have killed at least 50 Soviet troops. This can also be regarded as revenge for the friendly army that was killed just now, which made the enemy pay a heavier price. However, good times do not last long, especially in the cruel street fighting, no one can guarantee that he will not be killed in the next second, and no one can guarantee when his luck will end. A new German soldier and his comrades jumped into the trench after the Soviet army retreated. As a result, as soon as he landed, he stepped on a mine arranged by the Soviet army. The mine exploded, knocking him and his comrades to the ground. Two poor wretches were injured. One lost his right foot when he stepped on the mine, and the other was hit by shrapnel. They fell to the ground crying for their parents. It was useless for the medical soldiers to comfort them“ Tell them to stop shouting! Use a pain needle! Do you use it At this time, the company headquarters also pushed forward. The company commander of the Grenadier frowned and looked at the soldiers lying on the ground moaning. He said something irritable. This battle has just begun, and his company has lost the strength of a platoon. If it goes on like this, he can be demoted to be a platoon leader in two days. However, he did not receive an order from the battalion to withdraw, and he did not dare to withdraw without authorization, so the fighting had to continue. What he didn't understand was that there seemed to be some obvious differences between the offensive strategy of the N group army and the previous tactics of the German army. For example, in the echelon arrangement of the offensive forces, they were completely different. In his old army, when attacking, he stressed to expand the army as much as possible, to carry forward the advantage of German firepower, and to encircle and annihilate the enemy as much as possible. What he knows now is that his battalion doesn't mean to start at all. Instead, he will attack one company after another. At least in his personal opinion, such a fight is just a struggle with the Soviet army. As a German soldier who has always avoided such a situation, the commander of the Grenadier company can't understand why this battle should start in such a way and at such an inappropriate time. According to his previous experience, the German army should go over here, encircle and trap the Soviet army, waiting for the Soviet army to run out of ammunition and food and collapse itself. For a long time in the past, this tactic was the standard process for the German army to evade urban street fighting, but now the whole German army is doing the opposite, fighting against the Soviet army in the city battle they once feared most. Although he also knows that his minions can't know what the big men above his head are thinking, the little man has a reason to live. He doesn't think he should be killed here“ company commander! Battalion call The signalman next to him took a look at the two wounded soldiers lying at the bottom of the trench with a face numb because of the sedative, and handed the earphone to his boss. The company commander took the earphone, and there came the command of the battalion commander: "your troops will hand over the position to company 2, retreat from the position and rest. I will give you 30 additional soldiers. Your company will rest behind my battalion and wait for new orders!"“ Add? " The commander of the Grenadier company couldn't believe his ears. It was very difficult for the German troops to make up for the war losses. The troops with heavy losses often had to wait for more than ten days or even dozens of days to get the corresponding replenishment, and they often lost ten to make up for five. In his one-year combat experience, he has never seen such a situation that losses are over and almost immediately replenished“ Yes! Battalion commander As if afraid that the battalion commander would change his mind, he replied quickly. This time, maybe it's really different
