After a week's rest, Team 217's first mission showed a bad momentum at the beginning, which couldn't help but make people feel like they were dying before they got out of the school. Although the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info appeased by Andre and Anton, the mood of the team members is still very low, especially Bella, and the feeling of self-blame cannot be solved by two thoughtful words.

Although they were attacked once, they should have raised some vigilance, but Andre's formation is already quite good, so there is nothing that can be improved, and what can be done is only to raise the vigilance that has overflowed a little, although in the later march, Andre and they were not ambushed, but along the way, they also spent a lot of energy because of this incident, and it is difficult to say whether the following battle can still maintain the best condition and continue......

When Andrei and others arrived, the Soviets were engaged in a long-distance firepower confrontation with the German army. In contrast, the Soviets had a slightly larger number of artillery pieces and had an advantage in fire suppression. However, the Germans relied on the bunkers inside the village as cover, and the casualties should not be large, and the two sides just tugged at each other, waiting for the other side to make a mistake.

Before the start of the war, Andrei first learned about the geographical location of this village, but the situation was much more difficult than he imagined - this village was medium in size, and it could still hide all the German troops, so it would definitely not be very effective to strike at the Germans from the outside. Therefore, Andrei had to figure out a route that would allow him to enter the village and fight the Germans.

In terms of troops, according to the available intelligence, whether in terms of infantry or tanks, the Soviet army has some advantages, although this advantage is not particularly large, but if this force can be brought into the village, the subsequent battle should not be too bothersome.

However, the most important and headache for Andrei is how to send troops into the village during this battle - this village is located on top of a river loop, surrounded by rivers on three sides, only the front and back sides of the village have bridges, and the rest belongs to a forest, which is supposed to be the best place to attack the village, but the river is also extended far away, and it is impossible to find the next bridge to go around the forest in a short time. And no one knows whether the next bridge will belong to the Soviet or German troops.

Although in winter, Andrei can also let lighter tanks quickly pass through the ice above the river to attack the village directly from several directions, but now that it is spring, the ice has long become a symbol of external strength and dryness, as long as the tank weighing dozens of tons touches it slightly, it will directly collapse into a large pit, and then the rushing river water will directly swallow the tank.

So, no matter how you look at it, Andrei's 217 team, if they want to fight their way into the village, there is no road to pass through except for these two bridges. This fact was further exacerbated by what Andrei saw through the telescope - although the bridge had just been repaired and appeared to be relatively strong, the narrowness of the deck was a major drawback, and the width of the bridge was impossible to allow two tanks to pass through at the same time, no matter how you look at it. Moreover, the KV-1's wider tank must also drive relatively straight onto the bridge deck, otherwise it may also fall off the bridge.

Although there are two bridges in front and rear, even if both sides break through at the same time, the 217 squad has a total of six tanks, and it will take a little time to pass, and this time is the best time for the enemy to attack them, of course, this is not counting the several tanks of friendly forces, if they all add up, the time will be longer. It is difficult to imagine that a tank would be able to dodge shells fired by a nearby enemy while moving slowly on the bridge deck.

After seeing this, Andrei fell into deep thought, and he began to wonder if he really had to carry out this mission. After all, no matter how you look at it, there is no way to take the village from the Germans except for a storm, but when it comes to storming, the controllability of casualties is much worse.

If there were two KV-1 heavy tanks before, he might have been able to rely on the armor of these two heavy tanks to force the village directly from the front and back, but now that there is only one KV-1 tank left in his squad, this plan will not work, after all, even if the KV-1 is used to take the lead, if it is followed by five other tanks, this team will be too long no matter how you look at it.

However, Andrei was not the kind of person to hang himself from a tree, and when it was difficult to carry out an attack with his own side as the main force, he thought about whether it would be possible to let the friendly infantry enter the village first and cause chaos, and then the tanks would attack when the enemy was in confusion, so that their pressure would be much less.

However, this proposal was quickly opposed by the infantry, who had already thought of such a solution, but the village surrounded by rivers on three sides was not suitable for infantry raids. Even if it touched through the woods, the enemy had put a lot of troops on that side to defend it, and there was no chance of breaking through at all, let alone letting a small number of infantry touch it to create chaos.

Andrei was also skeptical of the infantry's words, and in order to confirm whether it was really as they said, he found Xia Bing, an expert in this area.

"If this environment is not placed at night, the probability of a successful raid is almost zero. Although I haven't actually checked the situation in the woods, even if there is a gap in the German line, it is not possible to get into it during the day. In response to Andre's question, Xia Bing gave the same opinion as the infantrymen.

"No, not at night!" Andre rejected Xia Bing's plan to raid at night, and he frowned and said: "Such a narrow bridge, if it is placed at night, even if we turn on the headlights, we must be careful to pass, and the speed will definitely be slower than during the day, so it will lose the meaning of the raid." ”

After rejecting one proposal after another of novelty ideas, Andrei once again determined that there was no workable way to fight this time, except for a strong attack. It was precisely for this reason that he was crouching on the side of the tank, thinking hard...... (To be continued.) )
