Chapter 940

In the ruins, the role of tanks is infinitely reduced. These iron and steel giants galloping on the plain become inflexible, stupid and fat people in cities with buildings and ruins. They will be easily destroyed at the corner of a certain intersection.

But even so, the tank still has its inherent play space in the city, whether it is in the defense of the street, or in the launch of the assault, with tank support and without tank support are two completely different results. So even if we know that the tanks will fall into a disadvantage in the urban street battle, sending tanks to participate in the attack and defense in the street battle can still achieve good results.

Don't underestimate or overestimate any kind of killing weapon. They are just weapons. No matter what kind of place they are used, whether they are suitable or not, they can kill people. The only difference is that which weapon is more convenient for Huang Jingxia to kill, while the remaining weapons are a little more inconvenient.

So don't superstitiously say that submarines are the killer of aircraft carriers, because the ghost of the commanders of hundreds of submarines sunk by escort aircraft carriers proves a fact that aircraft carriers are also the killers of submarines; Do not be convinced that tanks are not suitable for street fighting, because even if there are a thousand ways to destroy tanks in street fighting, there is at least one way to kill those who want to destroy them in turn.

Superstitious belief in weapon performance is just one side of the story of a group of military enthusiasts in peacetime. Only God and those who have experienced war will know what the battlefield is like. There is no need to pray, no need to be cowardly or crazy, because no matter what, you may lose your life in the next second.

You have to fight with a pistol and a dagger. In addition to surrendering as a prisoner, fighting is the only choice, whether you are holding a poor revolver or driving a main battle tank with an intelligent computer.

The American Apache helicopter was shot down by a group of farmers carrying RPG rockets and AK47; The soldiers with knives and spears, rifles and grenades face the enemy, which is the unmanned attack aircraft supported by satellite data link. No one stipulates that only weapons are stronger than opponents can win the war, because there is only one rule of war, no rule!

I don't know who is the first to be used to crushing opponents with weapons: when the opponent has only big knives and spears, he must have muskets and rifles in his hand; When an opponent uses a musket, he has to have a bolt rifle and submachine gun in his hand; The opponents managed to use rifles and machine guns, only to find tanks and armored vehicles coming from the opposite side.

So? Is it that when the weapons and equipment are the same, people's subconscious will no longer go to war? Or can we say that we can't stand the death of thousands of people and dare not face the price of victory? No matter what people think today, it's a pity that in the ruins of Stalingrad in 1939, soldiers on both sides didn't have these inexplicable ideas in their minds.

The Soviet infantrymen who were hiding from the fire in the trenches had no time to complain about why the German weapons were so advanced, and the German soldiers who were pulling the bolt to load their bullets had no time to think about why the Soviets were so stubborn. They just repeat their most efficient actions to kill their enemies most efficiently, that's all.

When a German soldier's head was broken by bullets and blood splashed on his companion's face and clothes, God did not save him from death because he was wearing a tactical vest and carrying an mp-44 assault rifle; When the Soviet infantry ran out of bullets in the barrel of the tank and was finally screened by the course machine gun of the tank, God did not let him go just because he had only one bayonet left in his hand.

The tracks of leopard flamethrowers slowly ran over the corpses one by one, including German soldiers and Soviet soldiers. The body of the Ukrainian soldier who had just lost his position was also equipped with a moshinagan rifle with bayonets. The young Ukrainian who had just been stabbed to death by two Soviet soldiers still looked ahead with empty eyes.

A German Grenadier jumped into the trench as the leopard tank advanced. He saw two soldiers who died together with bayonets. He also saw young Ukrainians with blood drained. He came up to the young man with a G43 semi-automatic rifle, stretched out the palm of his hand with black gloves, and helped the young man cover his eyes.

From the beginning of the battle until the gunfire on the battlefield gradually faded down, the Soviets did not get an inch of their lost territory. However, the positions controlled by both sides just a few hours before the battle were now covered with thick bodies of soldiers. The bodies piled up on the ruins, looking like a hill of bodies.

"Collect as much ammunition as you can on the body!" A company commander with a Mauser 98K rifle on his back passed by the trench and loudly reminded his men that he would inspect the position he was in charge of, so as to have a more intuitive understanding of the nearby terrain. The streets here can no longer be called streets, and the buildings here have long disappeared... The maps in hand have become useless furnishings. There is no way to arrange many things in advance. The grassroots commanders can only arrange the corresponding tactics on the spot.

He looked at the German machine gun position which was suppressed by the Soviet machine gun, then pointed to another more hidden and backward position, and arranged the first German firepower support point: "build a machine gun position there! Watch your cover. Don't fire easily Just when the company commander was pointing at the mountains and rivers here, a whistling voice suddenly appeared in the sky. All the people supported their helmets and retreated into the trench. This subconscious reaction has penetrated into everyone's bone marrow, so these actions are very natural and even have a natural taste. Then one after another shells fell from the Red Army position in the distance. The building shook in the flames and smoke of the explosion, and the earth trembled in the sound of the explosion. After all, the end of the world was just like this. After all, the German artillery was only a few hundred meters away from the soldiers on the front line. Some of the dust and debris from the explosions were even carried to the side of the German position by the shockwave. Everyone held their breath and narrowed their eyes, waiting for the grand bombardment feast to pass. With the continuous advance of the German troops, this large-scale artillery attack became more and more intensive and accurate. On the contrary, the Soviet artillery fire became more and more feeble as a groan. The Soviet artillery position on the other side of the Volga River had long been devastated by numerous German aircraft bombardments. After all, there was no army of German pilots who dared to challenge the air force in this sky. The German air force also used a variety of means to attack the ground. The Soviet garrison, which lost the artillery group on the other side of the Volga River, finally lost its advantage in repeated artillery battles. With the arrival of German large caliber artillery, the German artillery near Stalingrad had already formed the advantage of artillery against the Soviet army. This accumulated advantage has now become an overwhelming force, gradually influencing the outcome of Stalingrad's street battle“ Boom A shell just landed on the corner of a half collapsed building, and the huge explosion power made the already crumbling building lose the strength of its final supporting structure. As the floors of the second and third floors fell, the outer walls began to spread and fall, eventually burying the Soviet troops who were gathering below. Further away, near the banks of the Volga River, there is the wreckage of a disused Soviet tank whose parts have long been hollowed out and better maintained. These debris attracted a lot of ammunition from the German air force, and eventually rusted and eroded into a ghostly equipment cemetery on the Bank of the river. A shell landed here and rolled up the sand on the beach as high as a dozen stories. Many civilians who were fetching water on the beach were hit by the scattered shrapnel of the shell, while the rest of them habitually fell on the ground, waiting for the dense artillery attack. Tricheller may be really worried, so this time the German artillery bombardment from all sides lasted for a full five minutes. The originally calm city once again rolled out wisps of smoke, but for the whole Stalingrad, there are not many places to smoke... "These artillery bastards, have you taken the wrong medicine?" Slapping the dust on his body, the German company commander stood up from the trench. While cursing the friendly troops who were engaged in the sudden shelling, he grabbed the telescope in front of his chest and looked at the opposite position. The smoke was still there, and the shell might have hit an abandoned truck, so that the truck, which had been burned to the frame, was now burning again, and there were fewer towering buildings on the Soviet position, which made it easier for the German army to look out and investigate before the attack“ If I were a Soviet, I would surrender at this time. " The company commander put down the telescope in his hand and whispered: "make your city like this. If you continue to fight, there will be nothing left."“ Bang Before he finished, he was hit in the neck by a bullet coming from the opposite side. All the people around him subconsciously shrunk their necks, and then the hysterical cry became the last memory of the German company commander: "there are snipers! Enemy sniper! The lieutenant is shot The gunfire of revenge starts to ring, and the battle still needs to go on
