Chapter 2199 Hey, Here Comes the Tank~
Chapter 2204 Hey, the tanks are coming~
Alsim, who was sitting on the back of the T43 medium tank turret, held a battle zone map in his hand, and the tank commander, who leaned out of the turret, took the initiative to move closer to Alsim to facilitate communication. After understanding Alsim's meaning according to the map, he immediately replied.
"No problem, I will use the radio to convey the order, but are we going to engage the enemy directly? Comrade Captain, we only have three medium tank platoons, plus a platoon of mechanized infantry and three, no, now two infantry fighting vehicles, and the enemy is an armored army. Should we adopt some more stable tactics?"
The tank platoon leader who led the team to assist was familiar to Alsim. They had smoked and had a few drinks together before. He was a very honest person and was definitely not a coward. I can say this simply from a tactical perspective, to give Alsim some advice and brainstorm.
This guy, like many of the comrades who were newly added to the Leader Division, is a veteran who was transferred from other friendly forces. He participated in the war as a member of the newly formed tank unit in early 1942 and has rich combat experience. He was previously the company commander of a guards tank division. He voluntarily demoted his rank to become a platoon leader in the talented Leader Division. His ability in fighting is definitely beyond reproach.
Alsim certainly understood what the platoon leader wanted to express. It does sound a bit like a pure suicide to have just a few vehicles and a platoon of infantry to confront the German armored army, but the actual tactical deployment is arranged differently, and it is not as simple as it seems on the surface.
"First, let's see how many Germans we encounter. Even if the Germans are retreating in large numbers, they shouldn't be evacuating in a swarm of chaos. At least their rear area is still safe for the time being, and no fighting has broken out. In this case, the Germans should send out advance reconnaissance teams to find out the situation. They are afraid of being blocked by the Red Army's large forces. This must be the case. They will definitely find a way to warn them."
"Our primary goal is to find and quickly kill at least one German reconnaissance team. We are not afraid that the Germans will receive the warning signal, but we want them to receive it. Whether they send more troops to kill us or treat us as a large force to avoid the battle, this will delay their time."
"Our troops are small and easy to maneuver , if the Germans send few people, we will continue to fight, if there are many people, we will withdraw in time, anyway, they can't catch up. "
"If you don't see the Germans coming, continue to move forward to the southwest, because then the Germans must have avoided the battle and bypassed. We will chase them until we entangle them, but we can't hold on to one point. Use sticky tactics, fight and run, run and fight, fight and continue to run, and keep going back and forth. Toss these fascists to death, and slow down their marching speed will be considered as achieving the goal. These mules and horses are destined to be crushed by the tracks of the leader division. What we have to do is to let them welcome this moment as soon as possible. "
To use this tactic to use the reconnaissance troops, to be honest, at least this tank platoon leader has never heard of it before, it is simply unheard of. ׺°"˜˜`"°º×
But if you analyze it carefully, you will find that this is not impossible. On the contrary, the feasibility is still quite high, which can maximize the full mechanization speed advantage of the pioneer reconnaissance troops of the leader division.
In simple terms, it is to act cool and then run away. The Germans behind were slapped and were so angry that they could not catch up. This is the advantage of pure mechanization over mule-horse. After all, you, San Dezi, have not even eliminated livestock, and there are very few cars. What can you do with the pure mechanized leader division that is the essence of the Red Army?
"I have never heard of this tactic. Is this the original creation of the leader division?"
This is the first time to serve as a scout. Of course, it is also the first time that the tank platoon leader who is paired with Alsim seems a little surprised and a little surprised. Alsim, grinning, just put away the map and said casually.
"I did this when dealing with those Finnish ghosts, but at that time I was stepping on a sled and carrying a Mosin-Nagant. Now I am sitting in a tank and holding a Kalashnikov. The weapons have been upgraded, but the tactics are still applicable. To kill these fascist pigs, you have to change some tricks."
Just as Alsim expected, a close encounter soon came, and the opponent was indeed a German squad that seemed to have just stopped to rest, as Alsim thought.
The fascists' lackeys were resting on the roadside. Some of them got out of their cars to urinate, some were hitting their cars with tools, and some were smoking in groups of three or four like shamans. They could see everything clearly through the telescope. It was estimated that there must be a problem with an important car, so they stopped to see if it could be repaired quickly.
If the repair was good, the Germans would get back on the road quickly. If not, they would probably just abandon the car on the road and leave it for the follow-up troops to recover, if they really had the time. But no matter what, it was certain that the Germans would not stay on this dirt road for too long, so Alsim only had the time to seize it now.
"Two half-tracks, three troop transport trucks, two three-wheeled motorcycles, and at least 50 German infantrymen. There are no tanks or self-propelled artillery, but light motorized troops. There is a half-track with a barreled artillery, which looks like 50 small guns."
"It's not that difficult to deal with, one charge will do it! I'll take the infantry fighting vehicles, and you guys will provide fire support with tanks. First, destroy the front and rear vehicles and block the Germans on the road."
The tank platoon leader who personally got out of the car to conduct reconnaissance lay down in the grass with Alsim. The two Voldemort brothers each had a telescope, and they could clearly see every move of the Germans who were about 200 meters away and less than 300 meters away. It was Alsim, the highest-ranking military officer, who issued the combat order.
"No problem, but you have to be careful with the Iron Fist. I think there's a German guy carrying it on his back. Look, there's a German guy behind him when he's standing on the roadside peeing."
The BMP43 infantry fighting vehicle is not an absolute defense against the Iron Fist. The entire turret will be mercilessly penetrated by the Iron Fist at all 360 degrees. This is of course what Alsim understands.
"I know, if there is no problem, then start taking action, time waits for no one."
"OK!"
On the edge of the dirt road, two German infantrymen peeing side by side were chatting while "pressing their guns". The tall man still had a cigarette in his mouth and was obviously in a bad mood.
"Damn, not a single fart from those loudspeakers is true. The Russians were defeated the day before yesterday, the Russians were wiped out yesterday, and today we are escaping on our own land. They can't tell the truth. Shall we listen?”
"The truth will not be told to little soldiers like us. It is all known to the big shots. Who let us eat this bowl of rice? This is fate, Hans, you have to admit it."
As the little old man spoke, he shook the gun and put it back in his crotch. He was about to take the belt that hung hanging on the side of his trouser legs and tie up his trousers, but he never thought that something strange happened at this moment.
The tearing sound of air and the loud explosion roared from behind, but he was so frightened that he fell into his own urine on the spot, and the even more soul-shattering roar followed before he could react.
"Tanks! The Russian tanks are coming!!!"
