Chapter 2480 The Germans Are in Heaven!

Following Malashenko's order, the mechanized infantrymen who were escorted by heavy tanks to the front and rear of the battle line quickly got off the vehicles and continued to pour out from the rear of the infantry fighting vehicle with its doors wide open. Without saying a word, they picked up all kinds of tools in their hands, crouched down, and rushed into the German positions under the cover of fire suppression.

It is often said that infantry fighting vehicles are "infantry partners". The so-called partners are responsible for protecting infantry when they need them most.

Boom boom boom boom——

The 25mm machine gun installed on the BMP-43 infantry fighting vehicle spit out hot shells crazily, and the sound continued in succession, and the muzzle fire flashed continuously.

Any German infantry target within the range that was judged to be a threat and needed to be dealt with first could not escape the disaster. The red tracer bullets whistled indiscriminately. The fleeing German soldiers fell first, one after another in a pool of blood in a state of being torn into pieces or missing arms and legs, and some of those who were not dead were still screaming.

Some clever, quick-moving, and self-righteous German soldiers thought they could escape this attack. They did not think that their legs could run faster than the shells, but tried to evade the attack in another way, looking for a nearby shelter to hide, which was usually absolutely effective.

But now, at least at this moment on the top of the Zelo Heights, the truth was not on the side of the Germans.

Crackling——

Boom——

The sound of dust and debris flying and the sound of bullets breaking came together, and the tracer barrage mixed with 25mm full-caliber armor-piercing incendiary bullets directly broke through the shelter, instantly tearing the civil structure reinforced trench wall that the entire row of German soldiers relied on for survival into pieces.

First destroy the bunker and then tear the flesh apart. The large mass of rotten blood and rotten flesh that was torn into pieces was scattered all over the ground. The earthwork trench wall that was enough to withstand the impact of conventional light weapons and fragments could not withstand the direct bombardment of 25mm armor-piercing incendiary bombs at close range.

After all, this is a real vehicle-mounted heavy weapon bombardment. In terms of power alone, even ordinary heavy machine guns can only be regarded as younger brothers in front of it. If there is no armor protection or a solid concrete bunker, it is best not to try to use the bunker you think is reliable to protect your life. This is the fact for the German army.

"Go to hell with your bunker!" This is the most cordial greeting from the Soviet 25mm machine gun to the Nazi fascists.

Stepping on the slippery land stained with blood, they leaped into the trenches. One by one, the mechanized infantry and combat engineers began their work, which was also the bloodiest part of the battle: trench fighting.

This was a battle that had to be fought no matter how bloody it was. It could not be avoided or escaped.

Without clearing out the German infantry hiding in the corners of trenches, communication trenches, foxholes, etc., the heavy armored group would not be able to move forward in a large scale. The small and large number of small-scale anti-tank weapons in the hands of the German infantry had the power to kill the Red Army tanks in a close combat state, as long as they could hit accurately.

At this moment, the protagonists of the battlefield have obviously changed. The heavy tanks that were heavily armed and attacked have been replaced by mechanized infantry and combat engineers who were escorted into the enemy positions and launched a dragnet-style clearing operation. Those large, highly protected, and heavily firepowered heavy tanks now only need to do one thing: use the most powerful direct firepower to support their own infantry.

"All units should pay attention to maintaining firepower and not let those Germans have a chance to breathe! Prioritize attacking the nearest high-threat targets, and the enemy's solid bunkers and fortifications are the key targets!"

"Self-propelled artillery quickly follow up, enter combat positions and prepare for battle! Fire freely according to the priority of the target!"

In combat, Malashenko is almost always busy, with his feet and hands busy. He is responsible for the command of the entire crew of his No. 177 command-type IS7 heavy tank, taking on the position of the commander, and shouldering the combat command of all assault units on the front line.

Without going into the details of how to fight each vehicle or each infantry squad, Malashenko is not the president of a logistics company and does not have that ability, but at least it involves how to carry out the battle in each block, the general distribution of combat tasks and the coordination between various departments. These are what Malashenko, who is on the front line and has a panoramic view of the entire front, must do.

"Load high-explosive bombs!"

"Load projectiles, quickly!"

"Go!"

"Loading completed!"

"At eleven o'clock, aim at the bunker and destroy it!"

"Fire!"

Boom--

Every time the powerful 130mm main gun fires, the scene is like thunder. The huge muzzle blast can even instantly blast out a vacuum area directly below the muzzle brake, clearing all the dust and even the steel fragments that fall to the ground within the coverage area.

The 130mm full-caliber projectile, violently blasted out by the chemical energy conversion of the huge propellant, rushed towards the target like an arrow from a bow, whistling along the ground at low altitude, instantly bringing up a whole trajectory and spreading dust.

Boom——

Another powerful explosion sounded. The German bunker that was spewing hot machine gun flames just now could not withstand the terrifying power. It was hit accurately at a position slightly below the firing hole, and was undoubtedly poured into the interior through the firing hole by the blasting flames and overpressure.

The already airtight space inside the bunker almost instantly became an overheated and overpressured steel-concrete structure pulverizing and cremating furnace.

First it was shattered into a pile of bloody fragments, and then it was burned by the flames.

After the flames faded and the dust settled, only a large piece of unknown soft tissue that was burned to a charred state by the flames remained in the original place. It was undoubtedly a fantasy to expect to be able to tell what part of the body it was originally.

The only thing left in the small bunker with a huge gap was the smell of incompletely burned gunpowder, and the smell of death and roasted blood still lingered in the air.

"The Germans are going to heaven! Comrades, follow me, charge!"

"Ura!!!"

The trouble of blocking the advance was solved smoothly. A team of mechanized infantry who was temporarily suppressed in the trench immediately jumped out, taking advantage of the precious opportunity when the enemy's reinforcement force had not yet arrived, and quickly advanced forward, seizing the superior firepower position, and responding to the German infantry who came to reinforce and fill the gap with crazy automatic firepower, and shooting indiscriminately.

Such scenes are by no means isolated cases, nor are they only done by Malashenko commanding his own crew and his personal guard company.

It is what all the combat units of the leadership division involved in this offensive battle are doing on the entire front line.
