Chapter 493: Voices Strike West

"Did you know that this battle will be more dangerous than before?" Shulka asked.

"Of course!" Akimovich replied.

"Then you just missed a chance to go back!" Shulka said.

Akimovich was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Captain, I don't want to lose the opportunity to learn from you...... In these few hours, I learned more than I did in previous years! ”

Shulka didn't speak.

It's good to be willing to learn, the problem is to live first.

The German tanks "rumbled" up, and there were more than a dozen of them...... The reason for this is that some of the tanks loom in the blind spot of sight, looming in the ruins and remnants of the buildings, and Shulka has no way of knowing their exact numbers.

But that doesn't matter.

The important thing is that Shulka knew that the Germans were not prepared for this kind of urban warfare in the ruins, because they were still trying to use tanks to cover the infantry to form a straight line of attack and advance as in the field.

Soon they found out that this was impossible.

This tactic may be fine in much flatter fields, and they can even use sappers to cover the tanks for a commanding height.

But in a place full of ruins and ruined walls, tanks quickly became chicken ribs...... Many places were blocked by brick walls, making it impossible for tanks to move forward at all, and at the same time, the ruins piled up several meters high would block the tanks' firing range.

Soon, half of the dozen tanks stopped, and only seven or eight continued to cover the infantry along the narrow streets. In other positions, the German infantry could only abandon their tanks and climb and jump through the rubble.

Getting closer, getting closer...... When the enemy tanks approached the Soviet line about fifty meters, Shulka raised his head at Andriankayan.

Adrianka understood, pulled the signal flag from her waist and waved it behind her a few times.

"Bang Bang ......" starts first with snipers hiding in various high grounds.

Their target was the enemy infantry, and because the snipers were all selected from the unit with excellent marksmanship, and after a period of training, coupled with the condescending early selection of their respective targets, a group of German soldiers were knocked out as soon as they were shot.

Shulka could even hear the sound of bullets piercing through German helmets.

Of course, the bullet is not just as simple as piercing the helmet, it will also hit the target's head, and because the bullet is blocked by the helmet and reduces the kinetic energy and changes direction, it will continue to roll in the head and stir up the brain pulp in the braincase, like a bowl of well-stirred tofu brain, with a little ketchup.

Of course, Shulka doesn't care about this, for him now, these scenes are already strange, and he will be a little unaccustomed to not seeing them for a few days.

"Tanks are always the point!" Shulka said to Akimoswich, who was next to him: "But if you want to deal with tanks, then you have to attract their attention first!" ”

Akimovich was about to ask why, but was interrupted by Shulka.

"You need to observe more, not ask why!" "That's the only way you can really be involved in the fight and not spectators!" ”

"Yes, Captain!" Akimovich replied.

The situation on the battlefield soon changed.

As the sniper's fire revealed their position, the Germans fell to the ground for cover and tried to return fire.

But the Germans were limited in what they could do to fight back......

If it is suppressed with rifles and machine guns, it is clearly not an opponent for the opposing snipers.

Mortars, on the one hand, are not accurate enough, and on the other hand, it is difficult to pose a threat to targets hiding in buildings...... It's a curved artillery, and it's a top-down attack, that is, it blows up from the roof first.

If it was the Soviet army, of course, the bazooka would be used at this time.

But the Germans, who were not yet armed with an iron fist, had only one option: tanks.

The German communications corps hid in the rubble and shouted, and Shulka could even hear him clearly.

Then the tanks were mobilized, and they adjusted their muzzles to aim at the target...... This process involves infantry coordination, where the infantry guides the tank to position.

The German infantry and tank coordination was very simple, that is, the infantry machine gun fired at the target position, the German gunner observed the landing point of the machine gun bullet and adjusted the elements, and then fired a shell at the place with a "boom".

Of course, the Soviet snipers were not going to wait for the Germans to bomb them, they had already moved to other positions and even left the building...... To do this is as simple as leaving a rope for yourself on the other side in advance, and they can quickly evacuate and move to another position.

And at this moment, with Shulka's order, the Soviet army launched an attack.

First, a batch of grenades was thrown, no matter whether there was someone or not, it was right to throw it a few dozen meters ahead.

While the Germans were frightened by the grenades and hid in bunkers, bazooka shooters suddenly appeared.

In order to better and more accurately hit the target tank, some bazooka shooters even dodged out and knelt directly on one knee in front of the tank dozens of meters away...... Although the attention of the Germans, including the tank crews, was temporarily drawn in other directions in this situation, it was still bold to do so, because it was flesh and blood facing a steel monster.

And as long as the reaction was a little slower, the German tank machine gunner adjusted the angle of fire and pulled the trigger, and it was all over.

But he succeeded.

At the moment when the German machine gun turned, the bazooka shooter pulled the trigger, and the rocket "chirped" and flew straight towards the tank.

Almost at the same time, the bazooka shooter dropped the bazooka and rolled on the spot in two sides, dodging the oncoming volley of bullets.

That's when Shulka found out that the bazooka shooter was Valery.

Shulka asked about it after the war.

Valery replied lightly: "Captain, I'm not acting as a hero, I've looked at the barrel of a machine gun before that!" ”

Valery excitedly said as he demonstrated with the rifle in his hand: "The barrel is facing up, which means that the machine gunner is also attracted to the attention of the sniper, so I have enough time!" ”

Valery has a point.

The difference between victory and defeat on the battlefield is often just a small detail, a small mistake.

The German machine gunners made a small mistake: when the gunners bombarded the enemy's sniper positions, the machine gunners were supposed to cover the tanks in other directions.

A small mistake is fatal.

So I heard a "boom" sound, and a puff of green smoke rose from the tank armor, and then the smoke became bigger and bigger, and soon flames burst out.

No one opened the hatch and fled, and the tank crew inside may have been injured by the high-temperature jets of rockets and screamed inside, but the sound could not be heard through the thick armor.
