Compared to the Rat tank, the Tiger tank is smaller, for example, the turret rotates faster, which means that it can be aimed faster.

Hans quickly became proficient in the operation of the Tiger tank's tank guns, and at this time, he continued to advance towards the battlefield along with the other Tiger tanks of the 3rd Company.

Their target was the reservoir in the eastern part of the city.

It was the source of water for the whole city, and if it was captured, all the defenders would die of thirst, and after Hans proposed this idea, with the strong support of Lieutenant General Nikolai Sopica, he sent the 7th Infantry Division, with the help of German tanks, all the way to the reservoir.

The Romanian army's intention to attack was soon discovered by the defenders, who also set up many obstacles in the neighborhood where they were advancing.

Fierce battles are going on.

"Boom!" With a loud roar, the hull of the tank trembled, the turret was full of gunsmoke, and the smoke extraction device of the turret was running at full power, and after more than ten seconds, everything could be seen clearly in the turret again.

"The target has been destroyed and can move on." Zwedi said.

Although Germany did not hold any military exercises with Romania in the past, now in the battle, the cooperation between the two sides is quite tacit.

The Romanian soldiers, right next to the tanks, protected the German tanks from the Soviet anti-tank approach, and at the same time, the tanks cleared the front fire points for them and provided them with fire support.

Now the tank cleared one of the machine-gun fire points in front, and the Romanian soldiers immediately rushed forward.

They avoided the path of the tanks, although there was little joint training and no accidents such as crushing.

"Boom!" At this moment, suddenly, a violent explosion occurred among the Romanian soldiers, and immediately several soldiers screamed and were blown away.

Zwedi quickly searched for a target through the front observation port, and as the explosion continued.

"At nine o'clock, there are mortars from the Soviets!" Zwedi shouted loudly.

The turret turned, and Hans, in his sights, clearly saw that just behind a building, a curved shell was flying out.

On this building, a huge red cross symbol is painted.

No. 3 Hospital of Ozad City.

Mortars are rugged, affordable, powerful and easy to learn to use. For the Soviets, who advocate artillery firepower, they are equipped with a large number of such weapons, and the Soviet army produced a total of 348,000 mortars during World War II in history, which is one of the main fire suppression weapons.

To sum it up simply, mortars are powerful and low-cost infantry weapons, and they have a thin barrel compared to rifled guns, so they are quite lightweight, and can quickly throw high-performance ammunition at short distances.

A wide variety of mortars were used during the First World War, but most countries only used light mortars of up to 82 mm.

And the Soviet Union, which has always liked to brush the caliber, quickly aimed at this cheap and powerful weapon, and they designed the 120 mm caliber mortar heavy mortar - M1938.

The advantages of this gun are obvious, it is nine times lighter than a howitzer with a caliber of 122 mm, and even more than one-twenty-second of the weight of a 122 mm gun. Moreover, its high rate of fire and ability to hit targets with shelter make it an effective weapon against enemy personnel.

Now a squad of mortar infantry was hiding behind the building, firing their own shells ferociously, they had already calculated the trajectory in advance, and when the Romanians passed by, they immediately opened fire!

"Boom!" Another shell exploded, this time, the shell of this heavy mortar, fell two meters away from the Tiger tank, and the huge explosion of the air flow made several people inside the tank feel numb.

The opponent is cunning.

Mortars are curved weapons with a curved trajectory that allows them to be fired from behind buildings, but tank guns are direct-fire weapons, and now, 88mm tank guns have great power, but they cannot directly hit the enemy hiding behind buildings.

In particular, the other party is still hiding behind the hospital building!

Theoretically, the Soviet Union did not sign the Geneva Accords, there was no need to abide by the various battlefield conventions, there was no need to treat their prisoners preferentially, and it was possible to attack targets such as hospitals, but in fact, until the war was fought, the German army has always adhered to the battlefield conventions.

After all, Germany was the victorious side, and only the kind of enemy who was about to lose would fight back frantically before dying, regardless of the constraints of various conventions.

Germany did not kill prisoners of war indiscriminately, nor did it attack civilian targets, but now, the Soviets are hiding behind hospitals and attacking themselves!

"Turn the turret and rush over!" Zwedi gave the order.

Although Germany has never broken the convention, it does not mean that the German troops will be tied, since the Soviets first used civilian targets, especially hospitals as cover, then don't blame yourself for being unkind!

Hans turned the turret, the barrel was back, and at the same time, he was also ready to withstand the impact, and he certainly knew what Zwedi's order meant.

Bypassing the building? This will be a waste of time, and what is even more terrifying is that if the other side lays a trap here, it will definitely lay mines on the detour passage on both sides and blow up your own tracks.

So, you have to be surprised, and of course it's just crashing right over the building and appearing behind them!

The driver in front lowered the gear, pressed the accelerator to the end, the 730-horsepower diesel engine rumbled, rotated at high speed at 2200 rpm, and the huge torque was transmitted to the track through the driving wheels, and the tank rushed towards the hospital building!

The front of the hospital building has a gate, and if you enter from the gate, you can enter directly without impact, but the driver did not do this, but he hit the place with a window more than ten meters away on the right side of the gate.

In an instant, the people in the building panicked.

For the Soviet Union, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the saying that all people are soldiers, this is a national war, everyone has to be a soldier, as long as an order is given, they have to take up arms and go to the battlefield, if you don't go up, then you will be shot immediately.

Now, the hospital was originally a safe area for combat, and even Romanian planes have been bombing this area these days, but the soldiers of the Red Navy have set it up as a good trap and waited for the German tanks to take the bait.

They use heavy mortars to attract the attention of the other side, and whether it is around the sides of the building or through the hall in the middle of the building, they will be blown up by anti-tank mines, after which they can rush up and take out the German tankers.

As soon as these tanks are taken out, the pace of the Romanian offensive will be slowed.

Who would have thought that the Germans would not play their cards according to common sense and actually bump into this side of the wall!
