Chapter 1760: Bloody Battle Returns (Part 2)
Bang——
Boom——
Ka-ka-ka-ka——
The metal collision sound of the magnetic mine hitting the engine tail compartment in an instant, the roar of the warhead charge detonating instantly, and the harsh mechanical friction sound of the IS6 after the power system was severely damaged, and the speed suddenly slowed down until it came to a complete stop.
This thin armored grenadier succeeded. He did what he insisted on doing in the last second of his consciousness: using anti-tank magnetic mines to blast through the fragile armor plate of the power compartment at the rear of the IS6 heavy tank, blowing up and completely destroying the diesel engine inside, causing this behemoth with a combat weight of more than 50 tons to slowly paralyze on the spot.
The price was that he paid the precious life that everyone only has once.
He was beaten into a hornet's nest on the spot under the random gunfire of the exasperated Red Army soldiers, and fell head-on into a pool of blood with bullet holes all over his body, with his eyes wide open that he could not close until his death, and completely without a trace of life.
"These fascist scum! They are all crazy, they are risking their lives with us!"
"Shut up! Who doesn't risk their lives in war? This is the real strength of the Germans. Have you forgotten our days in Stalingrad? Such Germans can be seen everywhere.
Even if bullets are flying around and rockets are flying, they can still follow their own tanks and make random comments and have a few awkward conversations.
This has little to do with cynicism. Those veterans who can struggle to crawl out of the pile of corpses and survive the disaster have more or less some unique problems and habits. But this does not mean that they don't know the battlefield and are a bunch of noobs. On the contrary, behind this seemingly casual action are the most skilled tactical skills and combat experience.
When to have a chance to chat and relieve pressure, and when to concentrate on the battle and stay alert, these veterans know clearly in their hearts and do not need to be taught.
With terrible curses, they stepped over the bodies of the German armored grenadiers that were full of bullet holes and still warm, and closely followed the IS6 heavy tank that had been paralyzed by the explosion to seek cover. This team of Red Army infantry had one last thing to do before continuing the charge: save and cover their comrades.
"What should we do? Go in to save people?"
"No need, it's not that the turret was blown through, the engine was destroyed, they can get out by themselves. Cover here with firepower, don't let those Germans get close! "
The bearded squad leader who led the team rejected the squad's proposal and issued an order. The powerful light weapons firepower network composed of AK-44, PPSh, SVT-40, and DP light machine guns instantly burst out with maximum output. Bullets were fired at all the German soldiers around who seemed to be approaching as if they were free.
Two German infantrymen who wanted to take the opportunity to move forward with iron fists in their hands were accidentally swept into a hornet's nest and fell to the ground.
The rest of the German infantry who were about to continue to advance immediately retreated when they saw this, and then several M24 grenades flew over with hissing green smoke.
"Grenade! Be careful! "
The Soviet squad leader hurriedly called on his comrades to lie down and seek cover against the huge body of the IS6 heavy tank.
Boom boom boom——
The grenades thrown rashly without vision were not accurate enough. After a few loud explosions, they almost exploded beside the IS6 heavy tank body, and even the scraping effect was not achieved at all.
The Red Army squad leader, whose head was buzzing from the shock, knew that he was fine. If he was, he would not be able to stay conscious and would have been torn apart by several grenades exploding at such a close distance.
"Grenade! Let the fascists taste the power of the Red Army! "
It's rude not to reciprocate. You can throw a grenade in front of me, which means I can also throw a grenade in your face.
This is not a battle on a slope where you are higher than me and you are lower than me. If you dare to use a grenade to blow up others on the same height plane, you must be prepared to be blown up in advance. But what will be the fate of the German army without this huge steel body to cover? I can't guarantee that it will be exactly the same as the Red Army soldiers.
All the soldiers, including the squad leader, held a lemon grenade and threw it at the place where the two Germans who were killed just now fell. That was where the subsequent German infantry hurriedly retreated to avoid.
Boom boom boom boom——
A few more loud explosions that were covered in the trenches rang out in succession, and the ones who were blown up The explosion not only raised large pieces of soil and ash, but also large pieces of scarlet flesh and gun debris, rags, and even an M42 steel helmet that was obviously deformed by the explosion, like a deflated basketball.
The Red Army soldiers hiding on the other side of the huge body of the IS6 heavy tank did not see the scene of the Germans being blown to pieces, but such things were no longer important at the moment.
The important thing was that the IS6 heavy tank that was used as a cover finally moved. The hatch on the top of the turret and the hatch on the chassis were opened at the same time, and the two crew members immediately got out of the tank one after another and abandoned the car to escape.
"You are too brave! You dare to escape from the roof hatch at this time? Do you really think the Germans can't kill you?"
The Red Army squad leader, who was busy replacing the magazine for his AK, started to complain. The commander, who had rolled down from the turret at the fastest speed, was half-crouching beside him, fiddling with the AK rifle with a folding stock and a shortened barrel in his hand and responded.
"Isn't it that you are not dead? You are lucky to be alive! No need for other nonsense. Give me a spare magazine of yours. I only brought this one with the gun."
""
The commander and the squad leader were not familiar with each other and did not know each other, but on the battlefield where every second counted, they could not care about the details of "I don't know you, you don't know me". Wasting time talking nonsense was not what they should do now.
Even though there were not many spare bullets left on him, there were only three fully loaded magazines left including the new one. But the squad leader still took out one of them from his chest without hesitation, and also took out a pistol magazine from the ammunition bag on his waist, holding both in his palms and handed them to the commander beside him.
"Don't tell me you're carrying a revolver. I don't like to hear that."
The tank commander, with a face full of flesh and a sturdy body, just grinned cheerfully.
"Tokarev, loyal and reliable!"
Soon, this team, which had gathered four abandoned tank soldiers and a whole squad of infantry, was ready to fight again. Following another IS6 heavy tank that passed by, they continued to fight.
No one knew how long this bloody battle, which was rare for Stalin's 1st Guards Tank Division, would last. Only the German rear guard infantry and tanks, who were almost dead, were still trying their best to resist.
