Looking up at the increasingly thick twilight, Captain Schwarzenegger became agitated, and he must seize Housing No. 2 before dark, and then consolidate it as a starting point for tomorrow's attack.

After making up his mind, Captain Schwarzenegger immediately did not hesitate and led his men into the No. 2 residential area.

Residential Area No. 2 had been destroyed beyond recognition in the previous bombardment, and the rustic-style buildings could not withstand the destruction of naval guns, all of which were reduced to ruins, burning wooden piles, broken masonry, and corpses flashing from time to time, forming all the scenes that a battlefield should have.

Rushing to the stalemate of the battle, Captain Schwarzenegger was relieved.

The Axis forces had the absolute upper hand on the battlefield, and the remnants of the Soviet troops in the residential areas were trapped in seven or eight dilapidated buildings, making a final resistance.

There were several craters scattered in the open space behind the house, around which a dozen bodies lay lying lying on their backs, surrounded by mechanical tools and broken tanks.

A KV-1 heavy tank stands in the clearing, turning its turret, firing incessantly into the village, and the coaxial machine gun on the turret is also pouring bullets into the village.

Seeing this scene, Captain Schwarzenegger figured out the situation on the battlefield.

This is supposed to be a simple tank repair plant of the Soviet army, and it was suddenly attacked by naval guns, and the entire repair plant was destroyed, along with most of the tanks being repaired inside, and this KV-1 was the only tank that narrowly escaped the attack of the naval guns.

However, the KV-1 heavy tank appears to have a malfunctioning power plant and can only be used as a stationary battery.

Captain Schwarzenegger relieved himself, since it would not move, then capture it alive, snatch this fixed battery, and use it against the Russians.

Bypassing the Soviet-controlled complex, Captain Schwarzenegger and four of his men quietly touched the rear of the KV-1 tank and jumped above the tank's power compartment under the cover of the twilight and various construction machinery and damaged tanks in the repair plant.

A scout pulled out a sapper shovel slung to his waist and pried open the hatch of the KV-1 tank.

As soon as the hatch was opened, the muzzle of the assault rifle that Captain Schwarzenegger held in his right hand reached in, and then pulled the trigger.

Half-magazine bullets are fired into the small turret of the tank, either directly into the tanker's body, or into the steel plate of the tank's turret and bounces off the tanker's turret, and then into the tankman's flesh and blood.

By the time the gunfire stopped, the turret of the KV-1 had stopped turning, the guns and machine guns were all silent, and the groans of pain could be heard from inside the tank.

"Hurry up and surrender, or we'll throw grenades." Captain Schwarzenegger instructed a subordinate who knew Russian to shout inside the tank turret.

"Don't ······ Don't ······ I give up. A voice came from inside the tank.

Soon, a Russian soldier with a face stained in blood and putty emerged from the tank.

After confirming that there were no living people inside, Captain Schwarzenegger and his men removed two bodies and a wounded man who had been shot in the back from the tank, and then took control of the KV-1 tank.

Under the attack of the Italian paratroopers, the remnants of the Soviet army in the residential area were already in a desperate struggle, and without the support of the KV-1 heavy tank, the battle collapsed in an instant.

Only the victors had the power to clean up the battlefield, and the Italian paratroopers were busy dealing with the wounded and prisoners in the village, while Captain Schwarzenegger led his men in debugging the tanks.

In addition to not being able to move, the tank is still functionally intact, the turret can still rotate 360 degrees, and the 76.2mm tank gun can still fire, but only 42 shells remain, including 11 high-explosive shells. There were thousands of rounds of coaxial machine gun ammunition left, but fortunately, a dozen more bullet chains were found from the wreckage of a nearby tank, and it was enough to fight a tough battle.

The area between the maintenance plant and the sea is less than 500 meters away, and there are no tall plants in the area between the maintenance plant and the sea, so the view is wide.

The Soviets in Residential Area No. 1, whether they were retreating from the outside to send reinforcements inward, had to pass through this open field, which happened to be within the range of the guns and machine guns of the KV-1 tanks.

After commissioning the KV-1 tank, Captain Schwarzenegger handed over the tank to the Italian paratroopers and led his men out of residential area No. 2.

In his concept, the battle to block the lines of communication of the Soviet army was a low-level task, and the duty of himself and his subordinates was to find key points on the battlefield and promote the development of the entire war situation with minimal force.

Where should we target next? After arranging the accommodation of his subordinates, Captain Schwarzenegger spread out the map on his lap and searched carefully according to the map with a tactical flashlight, but he had no clue.

However, an order from his superiors freed Captain Schwarzenegger from his hard work.

After dawn, he led his subordinates back to the nameless heights, and then waited for the next instructions from his superiors.

It seems that the superiors have a new goal, where will it be? Captain Schwarzenegger fell asleep with a question mark on his head.

In the early morning of the next day, the captain got up early, had a simple breakfast, and then led his men back to the nameless heights.

After arriving safely on the Nameless Heights, Captain Schwarzenegger then reported his movements to his superiors, who quickly sent back a reply by radio.

"After the Italians cleared the Soviet troops in the residential area in the south of the unnamed heights, they led their men into Cape Florente through the residential area, and cooperated with friendly forces to fully control Cape Florent, focusing on eliminating the defenders in the two Soviet batteries on Cape Florent."

Captain Schwarzenegger finished reading the telegram, stuffed it into his pocket, and then led his men to the southeast corner of the nameless heights, condescendingly, and looked southeast with binoculars.

About 1,500 meters away, across Residential Area No. 1, the Crimean peninsula has a triangular area plunging into the sea, which is almost free of buildings and vegetation, in stark contrast to the residential areas to the north.

There was Cape Florent, with two twin batteries of unknown calibre, but they did not appear to have been fired, presumably after being devastated by the Axis forces in the previous battle.

Without the fire support of these two batteries, the capture of Cape Florent would have been an easier task.

For the entire morning, Captain Schwarzenegger was watching the progress of the battle in Residential Area 1 in the south of Unnamed Heights.

After using the No. 2 residential area to cut off the communication between the Soviet troops and the rear in the No. 1 residential area, the battle situation of the Soviet troops in the No. 1 residential area took a sharp turn for the worse, and the balance of victory instantly tilted in favor of the Italian army.

However, as the Italian army advanced step by step, Captain Schwarzenegger's face became more and more ugly.

Through the binoculars, he clearly saw that the remnants of the Soviet army fled into Cape Florent, one after another, and then disappeared, presumably being accepted by the Soviet troops hiding in underground facilities in Cape Florent.

These guys are hiding underground, and they are reinforced by so many remnants of the Soviet army, I am afraid that this battle will not be easy to fight.
