Chapter 2390 All Beings Are Equal in Front of the Gas Tank

""

Malachenko, who couldn't utter a word for a while, could only say that the word "buried alive" was indeed used ingeniously. The final explanation for the absence of Germans on the surface could only be this: they were all buried underground.

To put it another way, even if they were still alive when they were first buried, how long could they live when they were pressed down by tons of loose soil and couldn't even get out or even scream?

Calculated in minutes? Or in seconds?

Who knows, anyway, Malachenko has never been buried alive, and it is unknown how long he can live buried alive. Being buried alive by a huge amount of "unearthed" gas tanks is also a worthy death for these Nazis, right?

If you look at it this way, some things seem to be explained as they should be.

The bombardment that lasted for more than an hour at the beginning may not have killed all the Germans. Even if the artillery preparation of the Guards Army and the Leader Division was as fierce as it was, it was impossible to achieve such a terrifying 100% killing rate. After all, this was a line of defense that the Germans had carefully built to fight to the end. No matter what, they were very capable.

Conventional bombardment can be resisted, but unconventional bombardment is not necessarily the case. Those 18 gas tanks may be the real "source of destruction".

If I can't kill you, I can shock you to death. If I can't shock you to death, I can bury you alive.

Let's see if you hide well or my killing radius is large. If you have the ability, you can crawl out from the huge amount of 5 tons of gas tanks buried alive.

Aren't you hiding in the anti-artillery cave to avoid artillery and bombing?

It's just right, don't come out, hide in it forever. The excavation of 5 tons of gas tanks can not only block the entrance of your anti-artillery cave, but also fill the entire tomb for you and add a layer of rammed earth.

What? Who will "ram" you?

Isn't the leader division here to give you a German stick? Is it fun to be pounded by the tracks of 50-ton and 70-ton IS6 and IS7 heavy tanks? Is it exciting? Is the service in place?

If the customer doesn't say anything, then it is assumed to be a good review. The system statistics show that the good review rate is 100% without any bad reviews. Congratulations to the leader division for winning the honorary title of "Excellent Battlefield Funeral Company" this year, and the company's boss Comrade Malashenko was awarded the first-class commendation as encouragement.

"Damn, now we can't even be a corpse collection team, we have directly become a grave-leveling team. What the hell is this?"

It can be expected that the power of the gas tank is definitely extraordinary. After experiencing the "wind of destruction" that whistled from the waist of the hillside, it is even more convinced of this, but the "extraordinary" power of the gas tank really scared Malashenko now.

Some things are like this. It's useless to just use your imagination and hearsay. Only after you go on a field investigation and experience it in person can you feel all this and feel the actual effect.

Malashenko, who had no sympathy for the Germans, glanced at the super gas tank pit in front of him, which was more than 20 meters in diameter and had a depth that could not be seen from the turret. He shook his head helplessly and continued to give orders.

"Where is your company commander? Where is he?"

"Over there, in the other direction of the defense line. Our company was split into two parts for action. I am responsible for leading a small part of this side, comrade division commander."

It is also common for a company to be split into two parts for separate actions. After all, grassroots combat units do not act in fixed units of companies.

Especially after the leader division completed the mechanized synthesis reorganization, the infantry was mostly grouped in infantry fighting vehicles. One infantry fighting vehicle represented a mechanized infantry squad to cooperate with the tank. The common combat plan is to match the tank with a certain number of infantry fighting vehicles for coordinated operations, rather than abandoning the infantry fighting vehicles and calculating how many infantry to match.

After glancing at the infantry fighting vehicles of the soldiers in front of him, they were parked on the edge not far away. According to the requirements of the new combat outline of the leadership division, "people and vehicles are inseparable on the battlefield", which is not only conducive to the exertion of combat power and tactical maneuvers at any time, but also more convenient for radio command and communication. After confirming the situation, Malashenko immediately issued the final order.

"Take your vehicles and follow me first. Go around the pit in front, follow closely, and we will continue to advance!"

"Yes, comrade commander! I heard it, go and call the infantry fighting vehicles to follow! Move quickly!"

As required in his order, he led the troops back on the road and bypassed the super huge pit left by the explosion of the gas tank in front of him.

But after bypassing this pit, Malashenko found that the matter was not over here. There were more pits in front of him, one after another, and there were two or even four in a group not far away.

Needless to say, these are masterpieces that can only be made by the gas tank twins who are paired in groups of two and dropped at one time.

It was impossible to fill the pits, but we couldn't just move forward just because of these huge pits that were big enough to fit double-digit IS7s. We had to go on the road we had to go on. Malashenko believed that if we continued to go on, we would eventually encounter some living Germans and start a fight.

Without thinking too much, he simply asked the troops to bypass these huge pits, one after another, until there were no more pits in front of them. However, this also caused the leading attack troops of the leader division to become increasingly sparse and loose because of the frequent detours and twists and turns. The originally good attack formation now turned into a sieve, and there was no formation to speak of.

He was thinking about going a little further forward, and after bypassing all the pits, he would order a wave of troops to assemble and reorganize the formation. But before Malashenko could give the order with actual actions, the leading troops ahead had already sent a report of the emergency, which went straight into Malashenko's ears.

"Found traces of Germans! There are not many of them, about a hundred or so. No heavy weapons, they are all light infantry! They are fleeing to higher places, trying to reach the top of the high ground, and have left the second line of defense!"

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Malashenko became alert instantly as if his body was electrified.

He wanted to find out the situation, so he looked forward through the commander's periscope, but found that there were no traces of Germans on the road leading to the upper level of the high ground in his field of vision. Maybe these bastards haven't reached such a high position yet.

"Do you want to attack? Repeat, do you want to attack the enemy?"

The enemy has left the combat range of the second line of defense, and the vanguard troops who are not sure whether to pursue them sent inquiries. Of course, only Malashenko can issue this order.

"Give chase and annihilation firepower, but don't pursue. Hit the enemy until it is destroyed or the remnants escape the range."

"Received!"

The vanguard has already penetrated the second direction and "passed the customs", but only encountered a small group of German deserters who were running away, fleeing to higher ground, obviously looking for someone to meet up.

This at least shows one thing: there is no organized defense force of the Germans on the second line of defense. The defense line has been penetrated and only encountered a group of fleeing deserters, so what the hell are you defending?

Boom boom boom——

Da da da da——

Bang——bang——

Listening to the familiar signature sound of our own weapons firing not far ahead, there was no sound of the Germans' firearms responding.

Knowing that this was the vanguard launching chase and annihilation firepower on the enemy according to the order, Malashenko did not say anything, but just opened the turret hatch above his head again and leaned out, quietly looking back at the super-large pit behind him that was connected and invisible to the field of vision and sighed.

"Fuck it, everyone is equal in front of the gas tank"
