The combat intentions of both sides are obvious:

The Germans wanted to retreat to the city and rely on the cover of buildings to block the flood of British tanks...... Just like before, the Germans easily routed the British tank units in the city, and even captured a dozen tanks.

The British army, on the other hand, saw through the intentions of the German army, so they adopted the tactics of "fighting steadily and steadily".

To put it simply, the British knew it was inappropriate to rush into the city to hunt down the Germans...... It doesn't work, and it's not necessary.

It doesn't work because tanks are not suitable for street fighting, which, as mentioned before, limits the combat effectiveness of tanks but makes it easier for enemy infantry to get close to tanks and blow them up, and the enemy can even throw anti-tank grenades down from the rooftops to blow up the tanks passing below.

It was not necessary that the British army was in no hurry to destroy the German troops stationed in Tengaten.

This is not to say that Tengeten was not important to the British, but that the British thought that they had already won and were not in a hurry.

As a result, the British army demolished building by building, bombarded with artillery, exploded with explosives, and pushed ...... with tanks Bombard, blow up, and push all the buildings in front of you.

In this way, they did not need to enter the city to fight in the streets with the Germans.

In fact, Tenggtenger was already in ruins at that time, and there were no "alleys" at all, so naturally there would be no "street battles".

This made Qin Chuan and the others safely escape from the range of the British army despite a rain of bullets behind them...... The British were more interested in "demolishing" them in the back than in chasing them.

Of course, this "security" was only temporary, and as the British front pushed forward, the German army had less and less room to survive, and eventually it would undoubtedly be annihilated.

"Colonel!" The aide-de-camp, whose face was blackened by the smoke of gunpowder, ran from the rubble to Colonel Klein and said, "We can't stop them from advancing, let's break through!" ”

"Breakout?" Colonel Colein smiled bitterly: "Lucas, where can we break through?" ”

The adjutant couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and then he understood: "We will be caught up and annihilated by the British, right?" ”

"Of course!" Colonel Colein replied: "Although the British tanks are very slow, know that this is the desert, we have no place to hide, and when we break through, the British planes will bombard us indiscriminately, and then their tanks and troops will catch up and surround us, and then they will crush us like a hammer smashing an egg!" ”

"But, the colonel," said the adjutant, ......, "will it not be possible to stay here without being annihilated?" Our artillery has been blown up to the ground by the bombers of the British, and their tanks are pressing in step by step! ”

Colonel Colein did not speak, for he did not know how to get out of the predicament in front of him.

Right now...... It seems that all we have to do is wait for a miracle to happen.

It's not just Colein and his lieutenants who are distressed by this problem, but also Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan was unwilling to fail like this.

This is not because Qin Chuan has extraordinary courage and perseverance, he just doesn't want to die...... On the battlefield, defeat means death in another sense.

Therefore, in order to be alive, Qin Chuan must win this battle.

In this respect, Qin Chuan, like Alfredo, is afraid of death. It's just that Alfredo is waiting for fate to arrange, while Qin Chuan is trying to keep himself alive.

But what could stop the steel behemoths outside the city?

Anti-tank guns, anti-tank grenades, explosives packs...... None of this seems to work.

When Qin Chuan was distressed, an aerial bomb fell from the sky with a whistling sound, and the bomb hit a car filled with gasoline, and the car instantly turned into a dazzling flame, and some gasoline barrels were blown up high, fell to a long distance and then exploded again...... This was so much that the Germans were so embarrassed that they threw themselves down to avoid the splashing gasoline and flames.

Seeing this, Qin Chuan couldn't help but have a flash of inspiration: Why don't you use gasoline to stop those tanks?!

Thinking of this, he ran to Bazel, who was directing several German soldiers to fight the fire, and shouted, "Captain, can I make a suggestion?" ”

"Your advice had better be as useful as the last time you blew up a building to break through enemy lines, Sergeant!" As she spoke, Bazel turned to a group of German soldiers and shouted, "Hey, you guys...... Go over there and put out the fire, otherwise the flames will burn down our ammunition depot! ”

"Yes, Captain!" Qin Chuan followed Bazel and said, "I'm not sure, but I think I can try ......"

"Try what?" Bazel asked absentmindedly.

"We can try to blow up the tanks of the British with gasoline barrels!" Qin Chuan replied.

Bazel couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, then he turned his head and looked at Qin Chuan in disbelief: "Sergeant, you mean, you have a way to blow up the British tank?" With gasoline? ”

"I think so, Captain!" Qin Chuan nodded.

"How?" "You don't want to push the petrol in front of the British, it's just going to burn us!" ”

"Of course not, Captain!" Qin Chuan replied: "You know, the British are demolishing houses one after another!" ”

"Yes, but what's wrong with that?"

"So ......," Qin Chuan said, "why don't we pile up gasoline in the house and wait for the British to come up?" ”

Hearing this, Bazel couldn't help but be stunned, and then nodded with his mouth half-open: "That's right, sergeant...... We can pile up the petrol in the house and wait for them, and all we need to do is set the petrol on fire at the right time! ”

"Yes, Captain!" Qin Chuan replied: "You know, we have a lot of gasoline...... There was enough gasoline in the underground warehouse for us to set the whole Tengeten on fire! ”

Qin Chuan was talking about the underground warehouses that the Germans had captured from the British, which were the fuel that the British had prepared for their tanks and cars.

"Plus!" Qin Chuan added: "The tanks of the British use gasoline engines, and they can easily ignite ......"

"Yes, Sergeant, that's good advice!" "I mean," said Bazel, "I have to report to the colonel right away......"

"No, Captain!" Qin Chuan said: "We must act immediately, because we don't know the location of the colonel, and by the time we find the colonel and make a decision, I'm afraid it's too late!" ”

This was caused by the bombing of the British army, and the regimental headquarters had been moved to somewhere in Tengeten, and it was not easy for Bazel, as a captain, to find it.

Bazel thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "You're right, sergeant, just do it!" ”
