Although it is a reserve, since it is in the queue of elite troops like the 47th Division, even if it is a reserve, it is no worse than the average ordinary armored unit, of course, the elite infantry mixed division that cooperates with the 47th Division is the same reason, this time the two divisions used almost all the reserve sources, just to compete with the Soviet army here, and to divide the victory and defeat before the end of the entire campaign. Although the Germans are not sure whether the Soviet troops attacking this time are just a feint, the situation has forced them to think too much, and even if it is a feint, they must be stubborn.

On the other hand, the five German squads that had just been withdrawn from the front line with them had returned to their positions one after another, except for Derek and Trod's squads, the other three squads did not suffer much damage, which was mainly due to the fact that the purpose of the Soviet army was not to annihilate them.

At the thought that the moment of the battle between the two armies was coming, Trode was both relieved and a little irritable. After all, in the face of such an army, if he let himself command, he really does not have that level, so it is also the wisest choice to hand over the command, but the thought that his team will once again be mixed in the huge queue and end this battle in chaos makes him a little unhappy.

Until the counteroffensive, how much Trode wished that his superiors would give them a separate battle order for the tank, so that he could show his skills. However, Trode's hopes were really disappointed this time, after all, in the face of such a large army, the general tricks of small fights and small fights will not work at all, and the tank and infantry combat have become more important than anything else, which is also destined to Trode's squad must be just an obscure cog in this battle, as it should be......

Just as Trood was making his final preparations and was about to leave, a soldier ran over in a hurry with a piece of paper: "Lieutenant Trode, this is an order from the General Staff. ”

"Oh?" Trood didn't expect that he would receive an order directly from the staff at this moment. He quickly took the paper and read it: "An hour ago, several supply lines of our army were attacked to varying degrees, and now I order your unit to immediately go to the following places to investigate and completely destroy the enemy's infiltrated troops, in view of the preliminary estimate that the number of enemy troops is not large, so your unit must choose to temporarily hand over your two tank destroyers of the IV to a class A squad of our army to conduct a frontal attack. The team to be delivered can be selected by the team leader. ”

"Tsk! Guerrillas? Trode folded the paper and put it in his pocket, feeling both happy and angry, and a little disappointed.

Glad that his team could break away from this collective battle, the opportunity he had dreamed of to show his skills had finally come, and it was even a direct order from the general staff, which could be said that he was still quite valued; However, at the same time, Trode was also quite angry, not only let him carry out the task alone, but also did not give him a full allocation, even two IV J had to be deducted from his hands. Combined with the two crews of Vincent and Leona sent out to support, they were left with only four tanks, which was a number that could not be risked. Although Trode is not sure whether such an order to slam the door was given by Buttermeth himself, this person is definitely inseparable from him, but now that it has happened, Trode can only grit his teeth and admit it.

By this time, Trood had already run to where Derek's team was, although he had already taken the time to come and take a look at it during the rectification just now. However, because he still had his teammates taking care of him, Trode said two words and left.

"Why is it here again. Didn't I say I'm okay? Seeing Troll, Derek's first reaction was that Trod still didn't trust his state, so he squeezed out a smile at him.

"No, I have a new situation." Trode waved his hand and briefly repeated the order he had just received, and the latter, of course, understood what Trode was trying to say: "You're going to give me the 'Rough Girl' and the 'All-rounder' on your team?" ”

'Rough Girl' and 'All-rounder' are naturally nicknames for Amphitri and Hield. However, Derek is the only one who calls this nickname, and giving people nicknames is also one of Derek's bad tastes.

"Do you think there's any other option?" Trode looked at him with a smile, but said with some frustration: "It seems that I can't take revenge on you, but let my two crews go for me." Derek nodded with a little relief when he heard this.

"That's right." Trood took a few steps. He waved his hand back and said to Derek, "Don't you want to turn into your squad!" Remember to give it back to me as it is! ”

"It's a deal!"

At that time, Trode never imagined that such an inadvertent quipping sentence would become a heavy burden that he would never let go......

Vincent, for his part, was ignorant of the situation on Trode's side because of the distance of communication, but what he knew now was that the difficulties that stood in front of him did not give him time to think about other things.

With the advance of Vincent, although the number of Soviet counter-charges is becoming less and less, but at the same time it is further consolidating this non-existent defense line, in order to contain the advance of the German army. But this also made the German army have a doubt, that is, since the Soviet army has enough troops, why is it fighting so passively?

(PS: At this time, the superior officers of the German army had already learned the strategic idea of the start of construction on both sides of the Soviet army, but at the same time could not understand their actions at this time.) Because with the configuration of the Soviet army in front of them, it is completely possible to break through even if both sides use a strong attack together, and if the German army is really allowed to regain the original position, their strategy will definitely not be realized, so the German army on Vincent's side gradually slowed down the speed of advance to watch the movement of the Soviet army. ）

"Report the amount of ammunition." In between a charge, Vincent was ready to sort out his crew so that nothing could go wrong in the battle that followed.

"There are 21 more rounds in the HE and 17 rounds in the AP." The loader quickly counted the ammo, just as Vincent had reported the not-so-good news. (To be continued.) )
