Chapter 264: Fire Reconnaissance (Part II)
When it comes to worrying, the main thing is adaptability. Although the German tanks used by the Trode are ahead of the Soviet tanks in terms of engine horsepower and the thrust-to-weight ratio is not inferior, they are completely inferior to the Soviet tanks in terms of adaptability to the ground, so they have a certain disadvantage in speed. In addition, although it has been rumored that the Soviet tanks have weak armor, the guns used in their tanks are stronger than those of the British and French contemporaries, which makes them more threatening to Trood's tanks.
No matter how hard the enemy's armor is, as long as it is Trood that they can penetrate, there is nothing to fear; But at the same time, even if the enemy's artillery is weak, as long as it can penetrate the Trood tank, it is quite a tricky target. This is the advantage of artillery, which can be brought into full play when the Soviets are familiar with the terrain, and this time there is no infantry to explore the way in front of them, so Trod must be vigilant about the surrounding situation.
It is slightly reassuring to note that although the organic activities of the Soviets are very rampant, their territory is still too vast after all, and it is still too difficult to lay anti-tank mines on the way of the Germans, and the Trod is not fighting in a very important position, let alone worrying about the threat of landmines.
Along the way, Trode and they did not encounter any resistance at all, not because the enemy did not have any defense, but because their lineup of eight tanks was too strong and too eye-catching, and even if there was an enemy, they would have already been scared away.
Because it was a fire reconnaissance, there was no need for Trood to be too careful, and they could see the enemy position on another high slope from a distance from the high slope, and then they could strike at the enemy. In his usual state, Trode would have climbed out of the car and pulled out his prop-like telescope. He pretended to observe the enemy's situation, but now, he was still worried about whether his head would be blown up by the enemy first.
Faced with this situation, Trode didn't know what to command, but just said loudly: "High-explosive shells, indiscriminate shooting, what you see shoots!" ”
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"
A volley of fires hit the past, only to see several explosions on the opposite side vaguely, if you want to see the results, it is impossible. At this point, Trood was eager to equip the Scouts with a portable radio. That might be able to implement Hans's tactics last time, but this is just a thought, after all, it is impossible to expect ordinary infantry to have Hans's ability to calculate accurately, and it is absolutely impossible to be so strong in the ability to control the tank firing range. And even if Hans commanded eight tanks to complete this task at the same time, it was impossible to do so, Trode just thought so, he was afraid that Hans would have a whim, with his persistence. It's really possible to do that kind of thing.
Hans adjusted the angle of various glasses, looked at it for a long time, sighed and said: "I don't know what I hit for a long time like this, and I don't even know if I hit it or not." What a waste of shells. ”
Trode replied angrily: "If you want to see clearly, come to me to fetch it yourself." ”
"Forget it then, I still want to live two more days." Hans continued: "But with so many shells for a single fire reconnaissance, how do you want to live in the future?" ”
Trode looked bitter and said, "Don't worry about that. Every time I went to get supplies, the logistics people avoided me. ”
Alicia said disdainfully: "You said that the A+ team uses more, forget it, our team is not at the top in Class A." If you use so much every time, can people not have opinions? ”
"That can't be helped, after all, the captain doesn't have any intention of introspection, does he?" Leona quipped.
"Still can't use too much." Unlike the others, Hilde's reaction was a little sluggish, but this should be the way she was going.
Trode wiped his cold sweat and said: "Yes, you really don't have many shells, if I ask for more, the old man of logistics must not chase me with a wrench." "Unlike the standard 75mm shells used by the other tanks of the 217th squad, the 'Tiger' uses 88mm shells, although the 'Tiger' tank is slowly increasing in the 47th Armored Division, but compared to the huge total, it is only a small number, so the reserve of this kind of shell is not too much.
As for the VI. E 'Tiger' heavy tank, this has always been a knot in Derek's heart, and since the two first met, the two squads have exactly the same ratio, so there is a basis for fair competition. But since Trood's side accidentally acquired a tank, and it was a new 'Tiger', although the overall results of the two teams still did not travel much, Derek's covetousness has not diminished in the slightest. He even wanted to ask Anselm for a 'Tiger' many times, but since the other 'Tiger' models were all arranged in the A+ rank, he was too embarrassed to speak. In addition, he even thought of talking to Hilde in private, although he knew that it was no fun, but he still couldn't help his **, but in the end, he was completely defeated by Hilde's spotless expression
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
A few shells landed in front of them in Trood, and although they missed, they still stirred up a lot of dust. For this situation, the members of Team 217 did not have the slightest panic, Trode just smiled and said: "Finally fight back, this is what I am waiting for, all units retreat one car distance and continue to fight!" ”
The purpose of Trode's trip was to attack with their own artillery fire, exposing the enemy's fire as much as possible, and the scouts would record them to create favorable conditions for Trode's future attack. In this way, the exchange of fire like headless flies lasted for an unknown number of times, and Trode finally saw the flare rising in front of them, which also proved that the main task of their trip had been completed, and the next only need was to cover the scouts back to the village.
Although they were not attacked on the way here, but in this way, their purpose has been completely exposed, and the enemy probably has nothing to take care of, not only that, even if it is to avenge the attack just now, their guerrillas will not be able to let Trode and them go so simply.
