Colonel Abbehard's choice was correct, a retreat in such a situation was clearly unrealistic, the two armies of the enemy and ours were too close together, less than a hundred meters.

As soon as the Soviets discover their intention to retreat, they will surely charge.

Although the speed of the Soviet T26 was not fast...... The speed is 30 kilometers per hour, but it only takes 12 seconds to reach 100 meters at full speed.

In 12 seconds, before the German tank "No. 3" could turn around, the enemy tank had already driven in front of it, and then it was not only a matter of being surrounded, but also being crushed by the enemy in the front.

It is obviously not possible to continue to stay where you are and fight the enemy like this, because it means waiting to be surrounded by the enemy.

Therefore, if there is a way to live, it is positive, and only by fighting a bloody road can there be a glimmer of life.

Thus, the tragic hand-to-hand combat of tanks began at that moment.

Both sides didn't have time to open fire, and the two steel lines of defense that were moving in the opposite direction collided fiercely.

With a steel crash, the T26 tank in front of Shulka was knocked backwards for some distance.

Although there were not many losses on the surface of the tank, at least from the rear. But Shulka could understand the condition of the tank crew in the tank...... The space in the tank cabin is narrow, and the crew is almost wrapped in steel and various joysticks to drive the tank, and even if you are not careful, you may break your head and bleed even if you cross a hurdle, let alone a tank collision at this time.

There was a reason why the Germans dared to do this, because in the event of a collision, the "No. 3" tank, which weighed almost twice as much as the T26, had a clear advantage, not to mention that its front armor was much thicker than that of the T16.

So, after a while, the T26 was pushed backwards by the "three" tank.

"Think of a way!" The followers on the rear armor of the tank shouted: "We are about to be crushed by it!" ”

It was only after the war that Shulka learned that there was indeed such a situation: the body of the "three" tank was higher than that of the T26, and with the weight and muddy roads, there were several of them

"No. 3" actually climbed along the front armor of the T26 "rattle", and then pressed it under the track.

Needless to say, most of the tank crews inside were crushed into pulp.

But surprisingly, one person survived...... He was lucky enough to roll into a deformed cavity and be unharmed, but outsiders couldn't get him out, because the exits were all deformed and stuck, and the rescuers had to bring him food and water through the cracks every once in a while, and only got him out a few days later.

T26 continued to be pushed backwards, and the follower was so frightened that he dropped the phone and jumped off his armor.

Several soldiers tried to get around from the side, but were quickly knocked to the ground by bullets from the opposite side...... and the German infantry were also followed by the "No. 3" tank, covering the flanks of the tank.

This is obviously not the way to go, the T26 will definitely lose in this kind of wrestling, and the Soviet infantry can only follow the T26 step by step, while the rear is followed by friendly tanks and infantry...... If it continues to be pushed backwards, it is likely to crush the Soviet army and fall into chaos.

And as soon as the Soviet army fell into a crowded chaos, it was time for the Germans to start a massacre.

"Grenades!" Shulka shouted.

When the fighters who were at a loss heard the order, they hurriedly pulled and lit the grenade and threw it at the opposite side of the tank...... there was a burst of "boom", and the screams of the Germans were heard from the opposite side.

But the grenade thing, the Soviet army can throw it to the German army, which means that the German army can also throw it to the Soviet army, so the next second, several grenades with green smoke rolled and fell from the top of their heads.

Shulka hurriedly rolled over and rolled into the ditch and fell to his stomach...... It's actually very convenient to find where to go on a rainy day, because the water flows low, and where there is standing water, it means that the ground is low, and the more water you have, the better the place to hide.

This is somewhat different from the consciousness of living in a peaceful society, where the norm is to avoid puddles, and over time it becomes a kind of subconscious.

So, the battlefield often has to overcome this subconscious or habit.

After a burst of "boom", several fighters who could not dodge fell in pools of blood.

Shulka saw that Avmovich was also one of them, the recruit from Makariv who had been transferred to Shulka's platoon through connections, and he was hit in the neck by shrapnel...... Shulka couldn't tell if he had been slashed by shrapnel or hit, he only saw blood flowing from his fingers like a fountain, and he wanted to cry out for help but couldn't, because blood gushed out of his mouth with every mouth.

At that moment, a trace of guilt flashed in Shulka's heart, after all, he believed in the "escape hero" to join this unit, but Shulka disappointed him.

But this guilt is only a little, because this is a battlefield, and no one can guarantee that they will be alive, including Shulka himself.

"Grenades!" Shulka shouted.

This is where grenades are most useful, and if you want to reduce the number of grenades thrown from the enemy's direction, the best way is to throw more grenades first.

The Soviets had an advantage in grenades, because the Soviets were outnumbered and had the upper hand.

However, this still could not reverse the crisis of the Soviet army, because the "No. 3" tank was pushing the T26 to force the Soviet soldiers back step by step.

"What to do, comrade platoon commander?" The veteran shouted, and he also saw the danger of going on like this.

Shulka didn't answer because he didn't know what to do either...... This is a problem with the tank, he can't just call the soldiers up and resist the T26 that is retreating.

However, Shulka suddenly had an idea when he saw the explosives bag in the thief's hand.

Shulka didn't say much, and threw the fuse that had been ignited by snatching the explosive bag from the thief's hand and throwing it under the chassis of the T26......

"What are you doing?" The thief looked at Shulka stunned: "Comrade platoon commander, this is our tank ......"

Before he could finish speaking, the thief seemed to understand Shulka's purpose.

The explosives were covered with a fuse in the ground delay, and the "Three" tank was pushing the T26 forward...... That is, if the time was calculated about the same, the explosive package should have exploded under the chassis of the "three" tank.

"Get on the bayonet!" Shulka commanded loudly.

The fighters, although they did not know what was happening, loaded their rifles with bayonets on Shulka's orders.

Shulka was right, and after a few seconds, a loud "boom" was heard, and a flame erupted opposite the T26, and the T26 immediately stopped retreating...... The chassis of the tank is the weakest part of the armor, and of course it cannot withstand the power of the explosives pack, even if it is the "three" tank.
