Seven Hundred and Ninety Nine Delay Time
?
What is a veteran? Thousands of soldiers may have thousands of answers to this question, but at the end of March 1939, the veterans in the German army had a unique standard of measurement. This standard is that after seeing the corpses lying on the roadside and the bloody wounded in the field hospital, the soldiers who still have the courage to go to the battlefield, continue to fight and fight better and harder are called veterans.
Ren scoffed at this standard. His standard was very simple, that is, trying his best to survive, killing all the enemies alive and still alive, that is a veteran. So he kept his eyes on the tank, staring ahead and letting his body shake slightly with the bumps of the tank.
On both sides of his tank were hundreds of frozen corpses waiting to be buried, and in the corner of the town was a field hospital where screams and screams could be heard everywhere. However, Ryan has been used to these scenes a long time ago, because the profession he learned in school is to find ways to create the cruelest pictures.
Tiger tanks drove across the road one after another. They stopped behind the buildings at the entrance of the village. The sound of artillery fire from the front line could already be clearly heard here, and two mortars hidden in the corner could be seen. Cannons, shelling the enemy's position one after another according to the order.
On one side of the two mortars was a barrel cart, and behind the cart was a two-wheeled trailer, which was filled with ammunition for the mortars, as well as some sundries such as shovels. Several artillerymen were opening a new ammunition box and lining up the mortar shells inside along the shoulder of the ground.
"I'm glad you brought the tanks yourself, Captain Wren. The enemy has 4 large-caliber anti-tank guns, which destroyed one of our Panther tanks in the early hours of the morning, and a No. 3 assault gun, repelling Our attack." A grenadier company commander came over, stood next to Rennes' tank, and said to Rennes, who was sitting in the tank turret with half of his body exposed.
Ren didn't move at his position. He pointed in the direction of the enemy's position and asked, "Approximately how many Soviet infantrymen are there, and where are the four anti-tank guns?"
"One anti-tank gun was destroyed by us while moving, and the rest hid in the original bunker and did not dare to come out." The company commander pointed to the general direction: "There is one left on the left wing, and the right one is about There is a door at 1 o'clock and a door at 2 o'clock."
"Okay! Ladies and gentlemen, launch the tanks! Task: cover the infantry advancing into battle! I will go in the middle, 112 you cover my left wing, 111 you cover my right side! Tanks 114 and 115 on the two wings are loaded with armor-piercing shells to guard against the opponent's tanks. Let's go!" After hearing what the infantry company commander said, Renn did not hesitate, and directly pressed the throat communicator, and issued an offensive mission: "There is an anti-tank gun on the left wing! Marcus, I leave it to you... the right wing There are two anti-tank guns, you and I will deal with No. 111!"
The Tiger tanks started up one after the other, and after a puff of black smoke spewed out from the exhaust pipe at the rear,
These steel behemoths began to move, the heavy crawlers began to move backward one by one, the thick gun barrels pointed in the direction of the enemy, and majesticly bypassed the wreckage of the building that blocked the view.
"Boom!" Before Ryan reached out to close his captain's hatch, a bullet hit his side, splashing sparks. He frowned, then casually closed his hatch cover, put his eyes on the captain's dedicated surround-view periscope, and observed the surrounding situation through the narrow gap.
"Andre, do you see the bush on the right? After aiming, let Bowman stop and fire. Pay attention to maintain the speed of the car, we are followed by grenadiers." Ren pressed the throat communicator and ordered his gun Long to deal with the most threatening target.
"Okay! Stop!" Andre adjusted the angle of his artillery within two seconds after Bowman stopped, aiming at the unlucky target. With a loud noise, a dazzling flame spewed out from the barrel of the tiger tank, and a grenade hit its target accurately, and exploded at the bush.
Fragments of ammunition scattered around like a storm, relying on powerful kinetic energy to destroy all the guys blocking the way, whether it was the shield of the artillery or the body of the poor Soviet Red Army soldier, they were all full of holes by these steel balls. And the anti-tank gun was also severely damaged in the huge explosion, turning into a pile of useless scrap iron.
When Rennes' tank slaughtered the exposed anti-tank gun, Marcus also fired cleanly. A shell accurately hit the poor anti-tank gun, and the surrounding Soviet soldiers were killed. It also caused heavy casualties in an instant, and lost any ability to resist.
Bullets rained down on the top of the German tank, crackling like beans popping. One unlucky grenadier was hit in the knee by a stray bullet and fell to the ground howling. More grenadiers hid behind the tanks, advancing slowly and cautiously. When they encountered trenches, they jumped in and began to break through the defenses of the Soviet soldiers bit by bit.
The No. 111 tank was not polite at all. A shell just hit the position of the Soviet anti-tank gun in the distance, splashing a piece of mud. The shot was a bit off, so the No. 111 tank had to make up for it One shot. This time it just hit the target. The poor Soviet army's three 76mm caliber anti-tank guns failed to continue to make contributions when facing the Tiger tank.
Not far to the left of a burning Leopard tank on the battlefield, the wreckage of a No. 3 assault gun that was blown to pieces was still emitting thick smoke. German tanks bypassed these poor friendly corpses and advanced towards the deeper Soviet positions. The grenadiers following the German tanks have also occupied a large area of the Soviet positions.
Red Army soldiers hiding in the trenches endured the terrible panic caused by the tracks of Tiger tanks rolling over their heads. After finally waiting for these tanks to cross their own trenches, before they could rejoice, they were followed by German grenadiers, standing on top of their heads and shooting.
Bullets rained into the trenches, sifting the poor young men inside. Most of these Soviet soldiers were recruits with no actual combat experience. Facing the elite grenadiers of the G Army, they had no power to fight back. The position of the Soviet army was torn apart bit by bit, and the gap was getting bigger and bigger, and it was gradually showing a tendency to collapse.
However, the commander of the Soviet army obviously did not want to give up his defense line so easily. It may also be because he knows that once a rout is formed, the loss of troops will be more than the number of deaths in battle, so this Soviet commander has been fighting until now. He did not give an order to retreat, but allowed the troops within his broken line of defense to struggle desperately under the attack of the German army.
Suddenly, from the other side of a small soil pocket and the fence wall, a Soviet tank drove up to the position, and opened fire as soon as it drove up, hitting a shell on the front armor of a German Tiger tank. superior.
The shell hit the upper armor of the front hull of this Tiger tank, but it did not penetrate. Like a small stone, it flew out easily and rolled down on the ground far away, frightening people not far away. A Soviet soldier observing.
It's no wonder that such a fatal blow was easily resolved by the Tiger tank. The Soviet tank that broke out halfway was a T-26 tank that had long been outdated, so it was impossible to deal with the rough-skinned and thick-skinned Tiger tank. cause any trouble. The gunner of the No. 115 tank in charge of the cover sneered, and then cut off the gun decisively, adding a record to himself.
The shells of the Tiger tank are used to hit the T-26 tanks, which is a bit of a fuss. The shells penetrated the T-26 tanks very cleanly - penetrated the armor from the front, and then penetrated the occupants inside, destroying the The ammunition chamber of the tank, then penetrated the engine compartment, and passed through the rear.
Without any suspense, this T-26 tank was martyred, and then the entire tank was torn into pieces of scrap iron by the huge explosion force. At this time, another T-26 tank came out from behind this Soviet tank. It seems that the Soviet troops stationed here really don't have any decent equipment.
So the No. 114 tank, which hadn't caught up with the record just now, seized its opportunity and destroyed the poor T-26 tank with one shot, adding some more to its record. The German tanks continued to advance, and then destroyed several Soviet tanks and armored vehicles that came out from behind the wreckage of the two Soviet tanks.
This time the Soviet defense line began to really shake. Some Soviet soldiers who were sticking to the defense line began to jump out of the foxholes and trenches to escape. The heading machine guns of the German tanks fired without hesitation, shooting tracer bullets and ordinary bullets into the bodies of Soviet soldiers.
"These Soviets are all recruits. They have no combat experience at all, and they don't know how powerful our tanks are." Marcus said in the headset: "The combat methods are too naive, and they haven't received much training."
"This is a reserve division with no combat effectiveness." Ren looked at the directional machine gun on his tank, and the tracer bullets fired, smashed one Soviet soldier after another into a sieve, and confirmed with Marcus: "Obviously they It is delaying our offensive speed and buying time for the real defense line behind."
"Use firepower to seal the way they flee! Let the grenadiers capture the prisoners! We will stop the attack in the woods far away! Clear out all the enemies in that woodland!" Ren ordered coldly.
