Unlike the troops who arrived first, the infantry positions did not urgently need the support of Vincent and his follow-up troops, which gave them enough time to reorganize their troops and carry out some large-scale movements. Vincent and Leona's crew happened to be incorporated into a makeshift patchwork of armored units, commanded by their 47th Division, who, although they had no contact, reported themselves to their home at the beginning - the vice-captain of an A+ squad.

Of course, this collective operation was also an order from above, and the mission goal seemed to be not difficult - to conduct a large-scale patrol operation in this area, while filling the gap on their own, try to find a gap in the Soviet army for a surprise attack, and if the situation allows, they will even act as the vanguard of the counter-advance, creating a gap in the enemy position.

In order to achieve this tactic, this armored unit still has certain criteria for selection - it must use the crew of tank IV, as for the specific model, there is no requirement, this is also so that it can maintain a speed for fighting, without having to spend time and effort to reorganize the formation.

When the formation reached such a scale, it was not allowed to let the commander point out the command of a certain tank one by one, but a certain number of tanks as a group, and the commander-in-chief assigned a group leader to direct the details of the battle. As the vice-captain of Team 217, Vincent was chosen as the team leader. As a result, Vincent had four tanks under his command, which was more than in many cases in the team, but since it was only a command of the details, Vincent was still very confident that he would be able to do the job.

The initial patrol mission went relatively smoothly, and the troops were slightly dispersed to fill the already small gaps in the infantry positions. But on the other hand, the matter of counter-assault is not so easy to solve, since there is an advantage in terms of troops. In terms of formation, it is naturally not so easy to find gaps. Although the German side can be regarded as withstanding the pressure, on the whole, the front has not been pushed back to the beginning of the formation, but has been played a 'concave' shape by the Soviet army. Of course, the 'convex' front was also uncomfortable for the Soviet troops, and the troops behind were not strong. The troops in front were bombarded with fire from several directions, and the casualties were incalculable.

And just when this side was in a stalemate, a new situation appeared on Trode's side......

"Full firepower, can't let them run over!"

Trood gave a loud order, and their target was none other than a platoon of mine-sweeping tanks in front of them. That's right, it's a row!

Just after Trod had repelled a weak Soviet attack, a whole row of BT-7 tanks with steel minesweepers mounted on them immediately emerged from the forest in the rear. Wherever they have run over, all mines will be detonated without exception. And if they get close, they can completely use their own firepower to eliminate Trode's explosive traps, and then these defenses will be useless.

Realizing this, how could Trode not be in a hurry, but even if he was in a hurry, it was useless, although with the firepower of German tanks, it was quite easy to destroy the BT-7 tank, but those were just ordinary BT-7s. For example, the BT-7, which was equipped with a minesweeper in front, wanted to destroy it with direct fire. It's not a simple thing.

The mine-sweeping device carried by these BT-7s of the Soviet army is very simple, it is a large cylinder made of steel, a hole is cut in the middle of the cylinder, and two pieces of steel are used to fix it to the tank, as long as the tank moves forward, it will be at a certain distance in front of the tank. Crushed against the surface, its weight is enough to remove most mines. However, it was not the most troublesome thing for Trode, but when the tank was equipped with this equipment, although the mobility aspect would be greatly reduced, it also added an external armor to the tank. And because of its cylindrical shape, the shells hit on it are easy to ricochet, and even the main gun, no matter how high and deep, will appear relatively weak in front of it.

This is the situation that Trode is facing, although this minesweeper can only cover the body parts of these BT-7s, but even Trood has broken the turrets of these BT-7s, but it has not been able to stop their advance. As long as it does not injure the driver or the hull, it is not an ordinary difficulty to destroy these minesweepers. These minesweepers were not actually lined up, but were used in an inclined formation to avoid being wiped out by an explosion caused by an explosion trap.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

Watching one mine after another being removed, Trode hated it so much that his teeth hurt, if the explosion trap was used at this time, the number of destroyed mines would not be much, if it was not used, more mines would be removed, and there would be losses no matter what, which was really a rather difficult multiple-choice question.

"Trode, use my method!" Just when Trode was struggling to choose, Hans gave Trode another third option. The latter also thought that the time was ripe, and that the effect of using this tactic should be good now, so he immediately passed the order and immediately acted according to Hans's previous orders.

"Boom!"

An explosion trap was detonated, damaging a Soviet tank. This result was not satisfactory compared to the effort, but it did reduce the pressure on Trode and them to immediately concentrate on the remaining tanks. Although the minesweeper can defend the BT-7 against many attacks, this is only at a distance, and as the BT-7 gets closer to Trood, there will always be shells that will directly break the minesweeper at a vertical angle, or directly break the bracket connecting the steel cylinder. As long as this device is destroyed, these BT-7s can be said to be unarmored in front of Trood.

Not only that, the powerful 88 also directly removed the turret of a BT-7, although the absence of a turret does not affect the driver to continue to operate the tank in principle, but without the turret after the tank, no matter what unit of the HE can instantly make the exposed driver stop his persistent movements, and send his soul back to his hometown in Eastern Europe, far away!
