Receiving Chen Dao, the driver Grigory stepped on the accelerator fiercely, and the speed of the SDKFZ251 armored car went from slow to fast, and a puff of black smoke was pulled out from the rear of the car, and it rushed along Route 53 to the east of the city.

Behind Chen Dao, four armored vehicles started one after another, and followed Chen Daoxiang to the east of the city, Lieutenant General Hui Biqi saw Chen Dao leave suddenly, and it was too late to stop it, so he had to send a platoon of infantry to follow and protect.

Chen Dao was lying on the front of the armored car, carrying an assault rifle backwards, staring vigilantly at both sides of the road.

The south side of the road was fine, and it was full of German soldiers and vehicles, either south or north, rushing to help the battle ahead.

On the buildings and streets north of the road, German soldiers and vehicles were already in a fighting state, and from time to time bullets flew out, smacking the walls of houses, and artillery shells were flying, exploding clouds of gunpowder smoke on buildings and the ground where they were connected, and blowing up craters of various sizes.

As the armored car was speeding through the intersections, Chen Dao glanced at it and saw the figures in the distance of the streets wearing grass-green uniforms, holding various small arms and firing and shouting, and even the figures of tanks.

On two occasions, when driving through the intersection of the street, a bullet even hit the body of the armored car, clanging, as if someone was smashing the steel plate with a hammer, and the loud sound of metal hitting shook Chen Dao's ears and buzzed, and his heart beat more violently than ever.

Chen Dao saw a large open space in front of the highway from a distance, and beyond the clearing was a dense forest, knowing that the armored vehicles were about to rush out of the city.

As long as you get out of the city and find the main force of the division headquarters outside the city, you will be safe, and then you can also follow the tank forces to launch a counteroffensive.

"There are people in the woods, Russians." Major Lorenz shouted.

Major Lorenz's voice was still echoing in the air, and Chen Dao saw a figure gushing out of the woods. Four or five huge figures followed the crowd.

Chen Dao recognized at a glance the identity of the largest tank, which was the T-35 tank that had just impressed him this morning, but he didn't expect it to be here.

Compared with the giant T-35, the T-26 and infantry divisions next to it are so small.

Chen Dao's heart froze, and he glared and shouted: "Turn right, turn right quickly." Avoid them. ”

At the same time as Chen Dao shouted, on his right, Captain Nietzsche gritted his teeth and pulled the trigger, and the muzzle of the MG-42 machine gun made a "snort" sound, as if a piece of oilcloth had been torn.

The moment the armored car body flicked its tail and turned right, Chen Dao saw that the Soviet infantry group was swept down, and more infantry either lay down or knelt down and fired at him, and the tanks behind the Soviet infantry also stopped in place. The turret was turned, and the muzzle of the gun was pointed in the direction of Chen Dao.

As soon as the armored vehicle turned right and rushed down the road, Chen Dao heard the sound of shelling and explosions behind him, and he could even feel the burning heat emanating from the air wave on his cheeks.

The armoured vehicle stumbled across the grass on the side of the road, smashed headlong through a bush and plunged into a residential area.

With bushes and houses as obstacles, Chen Dao's heart relaxed slightly, and he turned his head to continue to observe the movements of the Soviet troops in the distance. Out of the corner of Chen Dao's eyes, he suddenly saw a huge black shadow following behind him.

It was a Type 251 armored car, Chen Dao glanced around. Three more armoured vehicles were seen rushing into the residential area.

The soldiers in the armored car were apparently also paying attention to Chen Dao, and the officers at the front of the car kept gesturing and shouting at Chen Dao, and more than a minute later, the two armored vehicles stopped behind a two-story residential building.

After questioning, Chen Dao learned that the four armored vehicles and the infantry on them were the troops sent by Lieutenant General Hui Biqi to protect him.

Chen Dao pushed the steel helmet on his head, letting a little cool breeze penetrate his head.

"Lieutenant Weyhans. Didn't you see those Soviets just now? Immediately report the situation there to your superiors, saying that there is also an enemy infiltrating the east of the city, and we are resisting, so that they can send reinforcements as soon as possible. ”

Seeing that Chen Dao was about to take off the assault rifle on his back, Major Lorenz said anxiously: "Your Excellency. The combat mission is still handed over to Lieutenant Weyhans and his men, and we get out of here as soon as possible, as those Soviets may rush here at any moment. ”

Lieutenant Wehrhans also said: "General Rosen, the task of resisting the Russians behind me is to be completed, you better evacuate as soon as possible, it is better to return to the division headquarters, it is safer there." ”

"I'm here to fight alongside you, it can boost the morale of your subordinates, and being a deserter on the battlefield is not my style." Chen Dao said.

Seeing that the two of them wanted to persuade again, Chen Dao waved his hand to interrupt the two, pointed to the direction of Highway 53 and said: "If you have time to persuade me, you should think more about how to arrange your position and block the enemy's attack." ”

Lieutenant Wehrens said that Chen Dao could not move, so he had to follow Chen Dao's prompts, turn around and let the troops get out of the car, and use the terrain of the residential area to build fortifications.

Five armored vehicles also turned around, hiding behind bushes or parked in the corners of buildings, pointing their heads in the direction where the Soviets might be present.

Because the armored car was too targeted, Chen Dao jumped out of the car with two adjutants, leaving the machine gun at the front of the car for the two infantrymen, but he himself rushed to the roof attic of a three-story residential building, from which the situation on Route 53 could be clearly seen.

Soviet infantry and tanks advanced west along the road, with no intention of tracking them at all.

Chen Daozheng was going to order Lieutenant Willyns to take his platoon, wait for those Soviet troops to pass, and then go around to their back and give them a fierce "backstab", and the words came to his mouth and swallowed into his stomach.

As soon as the first wave of Soviet infantry and tanks disappeared, another wave of Soviet troops appeared in his sight, and two KV-1 tanks also rumbled past.

Chen Dao gave a few words to Major Lorenz, and Captain Nietzsche and Major Lorenz turned around and ran downstairs, and two minutes later, people returned upstairs with an MG42 machine gun on their shoulders.

Each SDKFZ251 armored vehicle was also equipped with a machine gun in the rear, and it was the machine gun that the two men carried on their backs, and Major Lorenz carried two boxes of ammunition in his hand.

The MG-42 machine gun was mounted to the attic window, and when another group of Soviet soldiers ran across the road, Chen Dao waved his hand and gave the order to open fire, and Captain Nietzsche fired two bursts, sweeping down four or five Soviet soldiers.

Faced with a design from the flanks, the Soviet infantry was at first disorganized, and then regained its composure. As Chen Dao expected, more than 30 infantry and two tanks rushed into the residential area.

Seeing the two rampaging T-26 light tanks, Chen Dao excitedly shouted: "Two more point shots to attract them to look here." ”

The attic immediately echoed with a piercing "snort" sound, and three more Soviet soldiers fell in a pool of blood, and Chen Dao saw with his own eyes that a Soviet soldier was "sawed" in two by bullets to his chest.

A T-26 tank was seen parked. Chen Dao pulled Captain Nietzsche's shoulders and shouted wildly, "Retreat." ”

The three men ran out of the attic with machine guns and ammunition boxes and rushed to the bedroom on the second floor.

The sound of a roaring explosion sounded above them, the whole building shook, broken masonry and broken glass pieces fell from the bedroom window, and it was obvious that the attic where they had just been hiding with black guns was being shelled.

Chen Dao leaned behind the wall of the bedroom window and saw the T-26 tank in the distance with its muzzle on its back, arrogantly firing at the roof. However, he didn't know that he was being targeted by another enemy hiding in the shadows.

Lieutenant Weyhans was lying on the bow of an armored car that, unlike the others, SDKFZ251 was mounted not an MG42 machine gun, but a PAK40 anti-tank gun.

The armored car crouched behind a pile of bushes, only the bushes on the roof of the car were exposed, and the shining muzzle pointed at the T-26 in front.

A few seconds later, the T-26 tank burst into flames. The turret tumbled and flew into the sky.

The crisis was lifted, and Captain Nietzsche's machine gun reopened fire. Hail of bullets swept swiftly through the streets, and Soviet soldiers fled to the bushes and homes on both sides of the street.

Chen Dao hid behind the wall, keeping an eye on the movement of another T-26 tank, and found that it was engrossed in the battle with other German troops, not paying attention to his own meaning. That's when I was relieved.

The Soviets in the residential area were pinned down by the Germans hiding in all corners, and they could not spare any energy to protect the lone T-26 tank, and Lieutenant Wehrens's armored car quickly moved to the side of a house, pointed its guns to the side of the tank, and fired two shots in succession to kill the tank.

The Soviet infantry sensed that the Germans were not something they could destroy. They all turned around and fled, but without waiting for Chen Dao and others to rejoice in the victory of the battle, more Soviet soldiers poured into the residential area, and at a glance, the location of the residential area near the highway was full of Soviet infantry, they bypassed the big trees, crossed the bushes, used the houses as cover, and quickly approached the area controlled by Chen Dao and others in the depths of the residential area.

Seeing the raging Soviet infantry and the two KV-2 tanks behind the infantry group, a wry smile appeared on the corner of Chen Dao's mouth.

"We're in big trouble this time, and the Russians want to come with us for real."

"Trouble is just trouble, it's never a threat." Captain Nietzsche said lightly.

Major Lorenz glanced up at Chen Dao, his eyes full of concern.

"You don't have to look at me like that, I know how to protect myself."

Chen Dao patted Captain Nietzsche on the shoulder, pointed to the Soviet troops in the distance and said, "Three point shots, and then retreat." ”

Captain Nietzsche quickly fired three rounds of point fire, and seven or eight Soviet infantry were scattered across the meadow, and the attention of the Soviet army was quickly attracted here.

A 152-millimeter grenade landed on the wall with a loud bang, drowning the entire building in smoke and dust.

However, it was too late, and Chen Dao and the three of them had already fled and ran frantically to the rear.

Passing seven or eight German infantry in battle, Chen Dao and the three ran to the rear of Lieutenant Wehrhams' armored car and occupied a two-story building fifty meters away.

Rushing to the roof of the second floor, Captain Nietzsche's machine gun opened fire again. Chen Dao still hid behind the wall, closely watching the battle situation, especially the muzzle pointing of the two KV-2 tanks in the distance.

Lieutenant Wehrens's armored car fired two shots and two guns, but the KV-2 tank he was targeting was unharmed.

The shells flew out of the heavy armor, and the turret of the KV-2 slowly turned, pointing at the hiding position of Lieutenant Wehrhams.

"Damn mobile toilets, it's really hard to deal with." Chen Dao said in a low voice.

Lieutenant Weyhans also noticed the KV-2's move, and the armored car quickly reversed and turned, Chen Dao saw the armored car retreat to the second floor where he was, and saw that the muzzle of the KV-2 tank was still turning in the distance, as if it was tracking the armored car.

"Get out of here." Chen Dao shouted with all his might.

As soon as the three of them left the window, the muzzle of the KV-2 tank erupted with fire, and the shell did not hit the armored car that turned the corner, but smashed into the wall at the corner of the first floor.

Chen Dao felt a violent vibration coming from downstairs, his body flew out involuntarily, and his head hit the door frame, although he was protected by a steel helmet, he was still dizzy.

Captain Nietzsche and Major Lorenz were also thrown out with violent shaking and fell heavily to the ground.

Shaking his buzzing head, Chen Dao climbed up with the door frame, and when he walked out of the door, he saw that a corner of the building was gone.

Fortunately, the shells did not stick to the wall of this room, otherwise it would not be a few days before Berlin would have given itself a memorial service.

Through the corner of the house that had become open air, Chen Dao saw that the Soviet infantry relied on the numerical superiority and frantically rushed to the German position, and there were fighting figures everywhere, and under the big tree more than 100 meters away, a Type 251 armored car burst into fierce flames, and the steel plates and the bodies of the personnel flew into the sky and fell heavily to the ground.

Chen Dao gritted his teeth and looked at this painful scene.

"Unlucky guy, he was hit by 152 grenades." Chen Dao muttered in a low voice, and then shouted to Major Lorenz and Captain Nietzsche: "Follow me, retreat while fighting, and stick to them." ”

The trio rushed out of the building and crashed into Lieutenant Wehrens' armored car.

"Where's your iron fist? What about tank killers? Why not take it out and use it? Chen Dao shouted.

"The distance is too far, and there are enemy infantry blocking everywhere, and there is no suitable opportunity to launch." Lieutenant Weyhans shouted.

While the two were talking, the second KV-2 flew and fell more than twenty meters from the side of the armored car.

Lieutenant Willyns shrank his neck meaningfully, and Chen Dao also bent down.

Lieutenant Willyns quickly told his subordinates to reverse and move away from the building, and Chen Dao trotted behind with two adjutants, until he retreated more than a hundred meters before stopping.

Chen Dao and the two adjutants lay behind a bush, Lieutenant Wehans' tank stopped more than a dozen meters to his right, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the two-story building where they had once hidden.

The second floor of the building was the first to flash the figure of Soviet infantry, as well as a light machine gun.

However, before the other side could fire, the bullets from Captain Nietzsche's MG-42 machine gun flew into the window, hitting the Soviet machine gunners with flesh and blood.

Chen Dao's gaze swept over the sides of the building, and the assault rifle in his hand finally broke the silence and fired a string of bullets at the outcropping Soviet infantry.

The fierce gunfight could not suppress the shock brought by the KV-2 to the ground, and Chen Dao felt the ground tremble in his abdomen.

Soon, a huge "mobile public toilet" turned around the building and appeared in his sight.

No sooner had the KV-2 turned the building than Lieutenant Wehrhans' armored car fired two shots, both of which hit.

With a "bang", the left track of the KV-2 tank broke, threw out the load wheels, and was paralyzed in place.

The third shell flew out and got into the body of the KV-2 tank.

Finally killing it, Chen Dao breathed a sigh of relief. (To be continued.) )
