Chapter 738: The Epic of the Spitfire
The Soviets were also puzzled by the fact that the German tanks seemed to have withdrawn a little far, and in order not to be easily penetrated by the Soviets, they had completely separated from the infantry at the front, which seemed to them to be a bit ridiculous, because this was clearly to create an opportunity for them to break through one by one.

However, due to the loss of **** just now, this time the Soviet army did not dare to advance too quickly, but slowly advanced under the cover of tanks. However, since they had come to such a distance, and they were still moving with a stationary attack, Vincent's tanks naturally had a considerable advantage. In a short time, several tanks were scrapped, and some of the infantry who followed the tanks were also affected.
However, due to the lack of firepower behind the position, the tanks that rushed over were still the majority, and the infantry hiding behind the tanks were also eager to try, ready to compete with the German soldiers at close distance.
However, their abacus was once again empty, and the soldiers who were hiding behind the tank could be said to be invulnerable, but at this moment, several figures suddenly appeared on their sides, holding some pipes with a metallic luster, and spewed billowing flames at them......
"Wow, aa It came so suddenly, almost all the Soviet soldiers were unprepared, completely enveloped in this flame, and these were not simply flames, but burning sticky fuel, which, once stuck to the body or the armor of the tank, would cling to its surface until it burned out. Therefore, no matter how those soldiers rolled on the ground, they could not extinguish the flames on their bodies. For a time, the screams of the Soviet soldiers were about to exceed the deafening sound of gunfire.
And these flamethrowers, who have been hidden for a long time, are the third trap of this battle, but unlike the previous two, this is completely the infantryman's own idea. Since the range of such things as flamethrowers is not very long, it is not fully reflected in this kind of positional warfare, especially in defensive warfare. And there is also the fact that it is a bit too dangerous, if the fuel tank carried by the soldier using the flamethrower is hit, in this not very wide trench, the Pyro will definitely not be the only one who is unlucky, so the rash use of this weapon is likely to lead to more than worth the loss. However, as a big killer, it would be a pity not to make full use of it.
After thinking about it, some of the brave soldiers who were not afraid of death, after discussing in private, volunteered to ask their squad leader for instructions - they hid in several cleverly set up bunkers in advance, and then, after the first and second traps were implemented, waited for the moment when the Soviets rushed up, and attacked them from the flank, so that the success was naturally quite large.
These bunkers weren't difficult to get by, and Hans gave a lot of useful advice in his discussion of how to set them up, but he himself was extremely resistant to this method of warfare, because in his opinion, the Pyros could hide well, even if they were well set up, they could at best confuse the enemy in the early stages. And when they actually fired, it was almost impossible to get out of the way.
However, for Hans, who had this doubt, Vincent told him not to think about it so much, after all, it is impossible to fight a war without dying. While it is debatable whether it is true that a small sacrifice can be made in exchange for the safety of the majority, the current state of affairs is to win this battle, and if there is no such thing as victory, who is in a position to talk about ethical issues?
And, since the soldiers were ready to take the lead in these tasks, what right did those of them who were hiding behind be to stop them? Perhaps what seemed to them to be good intentions was put on the warriors as words of distrust and spiritual contempt.
After hearing Vincent say this, Hans felt a little better, but at the same time, he wondered if Trode would agree to such a tactic if he were to command the battle here. If he doesn't agree, how will he go to persuade these fighters? Also, what tactics will he use to replace this seemingly practical method? There were no answers to these in his mind......
"Whew~! Whew~Whew~~! The flames continued to shoot out, although there were only three soldiers who used the flamethrower, but for a while, dozens of Soviet troops did not dare to raise their heads.
However, this is still a surprise attack after all, and after losing the initial sense of surprise, although these soldiers still have flames to block enemies at close range, they have no way to deal with enemies at a distance.
"Bell!" Just as these three brave German soldiers were violently suppressing the Soviet army, a bullet was fired from a Mosin-Nagant M1891/30 rifle not far away, and the 7.62mm bullet directly penetrated its steel helmet, leaving a dark red hole in the center of the eyebrow area. And this soldier, at the same time, his eyes widened, and as soon as his body went limp, he fell into the trench.
However, in terms of what happened to these three fighters, getting a headshot might be the best outcome. Shortly after the first man was shot and fell, the other man was shot in the shoulder by the enemy, but the penetrating power of the powerful bullet pierced his shoulder and landed on the fuel tank he was carrying behind him. Although the fuel tank itself is bulletproof, the thin steel plate is still a little powerless for this kind of shooting from a distance of only about 100 meters. With a crisp sound, the fuel tank was instantly detonated, and the German soldier was also buried in his own fire, and his howl of pain was completely different effects to the Soviet and German soldiers.
And the last person, although not as bad luck as the second person, was also hit by two bullets in succession and directly lost his ability to fight. And taking advantage of this opportunity, the Soviet soldiers who had been suppressed by him nearby, full of anger and hatred, immediately rushed up, rushed to the front of his trench with a standard firearm, and then surrounded the soldier who had already vomited blood and was just waiting for death to come and take him away, and pressed the trigger in unison. Think about it, even if it was ten thousand arrows piercing the heart in ancient times, it should be nothing more than that...... (To be continued.) )
