Just when Trode and they were ordered to carry out the mission alone, Vincent and Leona were still following the large army in action, according to their original advance plan, but the progress was slow, and it could be said that there was almost no progress, but if you look carefully at the Soviet camp opposite them, the tank wreckage and infantry corpses everywhere are a bloody portrayal, if this is replaced by the general German troops, let alone continue to advance, it is not easy to maintain the front without collapsing.

With neither Soviet nor German side willing to back down, the battle turned into a war of attrition that neither side wanted to see, and although the task of the German army was to defend, how difficult it was to defend on such an open field with almost no cover can only be described by those who have experienced it firsthand.

Even outside the effective range of the guns, both sides did not stop firing, and even if the target was too far away to be accurate, they still had a low chance of hitting when faced with too many enemies, and this chance was multiplied by their numbers, and the results were still very obvious.

Although in this kind of long-range firepower battle, the German tanks with a longer range, higher penetration, and better accuracy theoretically have a lot of advantages, but in practice it is not so simple, except for a few fewer shells for a few IV destroyers, each other German tank has to face several Soviet tanks on average, so the German army with a qualitative advantage is not cheaper in the actual battle with a quantitative advantage.

At the same time that the Soviet tanks were seriously consumed and the German tanks were worn out quite badly, nearly half of the IV tanks had received moderate damage, and after the end of this battle, the repair of the tanks of the 47th Division would also be a very difficult task, and it may even be impossible to fight on the front line for a while. But that's all for later, and now Vincent doesn't have to worry about so many things. They could only pray that some key equipment would not be destroyed by the HE of the Soviet army.

In addition to the equipment, the attrition of tank crew members is also extremely miserable, almost every vehicle group has one or two seriously wounded soldiers, generally speaking, the communication soldiers and drivers in front of the vehicle are the mainstay, but there are also gunners, commanders, and loaders who are injured, and at this time they can only rely on teammates to take their place. However, the efficiency of the vehicle crew will definitely plummet, and some of the more seriously injured will be transported back to the rear by armored vehicles for emergency treatment, but the current field hospitals are overloaded, and it is difficult to say whether they can really receive treatment in time.

"There are only 15 rounds left!" The loader gave Vincent a number, and Vincent nodded in response, and then prepared to report to his superiors later, and since the two sides had basically stabilized, the Germans allowed some tanks with insufficient ammunition to return to their rear positions to urgently replenish ammunition. However, this amount was defined as small, only three or four tanks returned at a time, otherwise it would be difficult for the Germans to maintain their positions.

After about five minutes, the Vincent and Leona crew, with only a few shells remaining, were quickly returned to their positions in the rear. Since they have someone in charge, they don't need to meddle in the reloading of ammunition, but that doesn't mean they can rest. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Vincent and the others immediately took out various repair equipment and prepared to repair the easy-to-repair parts on the tank first.

In addition to the rest of the wounded communications corps. Vincent and the others each have a clear division of labor to deal with their own areas of responsibility, and the driver is responsible for repairing the machine guns on the hull. The gunner uses a wrench to confirm the stability of the main gun's structure to prevent problems with the external structure of the main gun in the later battles, while the loader repairs the top hatch that has been slightly deformed by the explosion, and finally Vincent, who is dealing with the captain's sight glass, which is also the most difficult part to deal with.

Since there are no ready-made accessories for replacement. Vincent couldn't do anything about the blown up goggles, all he could do was clean the passages inside the goggles, but even then, it wasn't easy to clean the goggles inside the tiny pipes. After Vincent had used his ingenuity from various angles, he had barely managed to complete the task. But if it weren't for the fact that this was his own area, he probably would have taken it more seriously.

The people who were busy around the two tanks were more efficient than usual because of the good division of labor, but if they could see the efficiency of the support staff for the Formula One World Championship in Europe decades later, their jaws would drop.

"Reloading is complete!" The surrounding staff in charge of loading ammunition loudly reported the situation to Vincent, and this also announced that their refurbishment time had entered the countdown, after all, they were still here to replenish ammunition, not to repair the car, so after simply repairing the current part, they had to return to the front line immediately to continue the battle.

"Let's go." Although his crew members still want to continue repairing, Vincent knows that although the damage of the tank is not too serious, if they really want to completely repair the failure of various parts, they will at least spend more than an hour here, in order not to delay the follow-up friendly forces, but also for the sake of teamwork, they must go.

The crew members reluctantly took back the repair tools and helped up the signal soldiers who were resting on the side, and they were about to return to the front line. However, at this time, Vincent unexpectedly received a special order......

"What?" Vincent was a little incredulous, after all, in such a chaotic battle, it was too strange for him to accept a special order from himself, who was nothing, but he still took the paper handed by the messenger and read it carefully.

The content on the paper is only a few lines, and it is very easy to understand, basically saying that Trood and they have been tasked with hunting down a sabotage team before, and now they have not heard from it at all, because they don't want to invest more troops in this matter, at this time Vincent and Leona's team in charge of supply happened to be selected as the best candidates for this mission.

After Vincent learned of this mission, he immediately informed Leona, and the two did not communicate, but immediately informed the front-line troops of their departure, and then they immediately rushed to the target location, and there was no communication on the way...... (To be continued.) )
