"Damn, is it noticed?"

Vincent looked at the enemy position in front of him and found that the Soviets on the opposite side were ready to move, although it was not clear the specific purpose of the enemy, but they seemed to have no other choice but to counterattack. However, for Vincent, who has two supports, it is not a problem to defend this area, but this was the situation five minutes ago......

Just five minutes ago, an A-level squad of the 47th Division, which was closer to the 217th squad, was ambushed by the enemy, and the situation was more critical, because it was the infantry who came to inform him, Vincent obtained the situation before Trode, but as the backing and support of the other two groups, he must not be able to withdraw, but it is not something he can do to save his teammates if he dies, so he had to grit his teeth and let the two B-level squads rush to support non-stop. And now, the crews of Tryna and Hans, who were repairing in the rear, have not yet caught up with the large force, and the two subsidiary squads that are supporting have also been transferred out, and there are only two IV tanks left in this position in an instant, and the gap between the strength of the opposite position is naturally needless to say.

At first, the Soviets were afraid that this might be a trap for the Germans, after all, this section of the advance was not a short distance, and if the vanished Germans were killed halfway through their advance, it would undoubtedly be devastating to them, and they did not need to take such a big risk in order to hold on to the city and delay time. But after a long time, this feeling is not right, Trode and Alicia are fighting hotly, and in the middle of the almost empty in order to create a trap, this is indeed a bit unreasonable.

Finally, the enemy began to advance, and Vincent gritted his teeth and prepared to take it, and not only because the enemy in front of him made him feel tricky. It's also because he's so worried about both Trode and Alicia right now.

And the origin of this worry has to start with the radio, from the time when the enemy is carrying out preparatory activities, Vincent has tried to use the radio to inform both Trod and Alicia, but there is a noise on the radio, and they can't be connected at all, at this time Vincent and they realized that the enemy is using radio interference. They didn't realize that the chariots were too close to each other. At that time, the noise on the radio was also a normal phenomenon of this kind of battlefield, so everyone did not pay due attention to it. In retrospect, they should have figured out the problem when Amphitri wanted to call for artillery support, but Trood rejected the proposal so simply that he missed a good opportunity to find the problem, but Trood can't be blamed......

The two IVs fired in quick succession, but because the enemy had too many covers, both for tanks and infantry. The damage it can do is really limited. Vincent, however, was not worried about this, because as a defender, the less cover there was on this avenue, the better, and if there were too many, the enemy infantry would be able to take advantage of them to attack directly. So as soon as the Soviets blocked their positions, they would enter a particularly long and wide street, and that would be when Vincent and his men were in full swing.

"Boom!" "Boom!"

However, even if the firepower is fully fired, the difference in firepower between the two sides is a clear situation at a glance. At first, the Soviets were a little timid, after they found out that the Germans really did not have ambushes. They sped up their advance, which made Vincent a little unbearable. Although there were many infantry and some anti-tank weapons compared to Trood and Alicia's side, the slow flight of shells and mortars could hardly damage nimble Soviet tanks. And those anti-tank guns, which are not very reliable, can even be said to shoot and jump when they encounter the front armor of the enemy with spare track plates in order to increase the defense coefficient.

But. Regarding the use of track blades on tanks to increase the defense coefficient, the Soviet troops even forbade it. This was caused by a number of factors - first, the attitude of the Soviet army to the use of tanks was markedly different from that of the German army and other Western European countries, and the German army regarded it as a main weapon; The British and French initially regarded it as a weapon to assist the infantry, and later awakened to the trap of this idea in the battle with the Germans; What about the Soviet side. They take it for granted that the tank is a one-time prop, in their minds, the conditions of the tank should be in line with the "manufacturing hours are short, the cost is low, the average soldier can sit on it and open it to go to the battlefield to fight, I don't repair it if it is broken, anyway, the cost is cheap, the overhaul time and manufacturing time are not too bad, it is better to build a new one!" "So the need to mount track blades for repairs in the field is not too great.

In the end, the reason is that Soviet tanks have always attached great importance to the element of "speed", which is indeed quite important in the vast land of Eastern Europe. And attaching track blades on the tank will definitely affect the speed of the tank, which is why the Soviet army forbade tank crews to load track plates. Of course, even if the upper echelons of the Soviet army do not pay attention to the long-term use of tanks and regard them as disposable props, the tank crews know very well that they only have one life, and reduce some speed in exchange for more reliable armor, which is an additional guarantee for the team's own life. Therefore, although the upper echelons emphasized this several times, the tank crews at the bottom still went their own way, and after a few times, the upper echelons of the Soviet army had no choice but to give up this order.

However, this act of disobedience of the Soviet tank crew really gave the Germans a headache, and the position of the tracks equipped and the non-tracks, the bullets of the anti-tank guns were completely two effects, and they also had a certain defensive power against grenades, which is enough to show its practicability. Even in the face of the terrifying penetration of the German main guns, they can change the angle of incidence of the shells to a certain extent, and the ricochet rate of the incoming shells will increase slightly. Of course, this is only its defensive role, but the maintenance role that its ability should reflect is still on the other hand, so this method of carrying track plates is extremely common on the battlefield because of its strong practicality.

"Bang!" "Bell!" "Da!"

A shell fired by Vincent's crew just happened to hit the track blade of the upper armor of the enemy's T-26S, and unfortunately it ricocheted. However, the angle of the ricochet was also a bit tricky, and it flew diagonally upwards, piercing the T-26S gun shield from the bottom...... (To be continued.) )
