Should it be said that the Soviets were really a fighting people, or did their spirit of defending their homeland have surpassed everything, compared with the defensive battles that Trood and they had encountered with the British and French forces, the Soviets were more ferocious, perhaps because of the speed of their tanks. And in order not to create cover for the enemy's infantry, it is impossible for Trod to dig anti-tank trenches in front, and as for the anti-tank rejection like the Soviet army, it is not configured, so as long as these Soviet tanks do not encounter Trode's firepower, they can directly rush to the front of the formation and cause damage to the infantry. On the other hand, due to the limited number of troops, Trod they were simply not enough to withstand the real frontal impact of these Soviet troops, so they had to set up several more lines of defense, the first two were completely composed of trenches, and were not assigned to tanks, this is so that the infantry can inflict damage on the enemy's infantry in advance, and when the enemy's army presses up, the infantry will withdraw from here to the rear position to cooperate with the tanks to continue to defend, and at this time there is no need to worry that these trenches will be used by the enemy's infantry, Because the infantry had already prepared the explosives, they would be evenly placed in the trenches when they withdrew from their positions, and as soon as they withdrew, the explosives would raze the two trenches to the ground.

In addition to the infantry defense line, in the rear positions, in addition to the FlaK36 and Trood's tank troops, there are also some PaK35/36 37mm anti-tank guns, although the power is far less than the first two, but it can still be used to resist some light armored tanks, as for why not only is there no Pak40, but even the Pak38 50mm anti-tank gun is not available, this is entirely Trood's reason - when choosing weapons, He doesn't care about everything is that he wants Flak36, but since Flak36 is so strong, of course, there are certain conditions attached to wanting to get it, which is that the team that obtains Flak36 can't get Pak38. This was used to balance their anti-tank forces, but this was not listened to by Trode, who was of course hot-headed, until he finally equipped himself with weapons other than heavy weapons, and Trode regretted it.

But regret at this point is of no avail, the firepower of Trode's squad is still good, and it is enough to defend against general tank shocks. And in order to relieve the pressure on the infantry, several commanders suspended the command in the car and began to use the machine gun on the roof of the car to suppress the enemy's advancing infantry, after all, at this distance. The probability of destroying any target is about the same, and there is not much need for full command.

Of course, the absence of a commander is not a lack of command, and in Trode's crew, Yorkson, who is idle because he can't move the car, plays the role of commander, and is responsible for finding some 'seemingly good targets' for Nuttel.

Although he has far more skills than ordinary people in driving, Yorkson is really not very good at choosing targets, and even compared to Natel, he is still a lot more layman. After several reminders were opposed by Natle, he was left to spot some of the Soviets trying to stealth and tell them where they were, though the way he conveyed the message was much worse than Trode's. It's just that because the two are sworn friends, many things don't need to be said too clearly to know each other's meaning, or it is estimated that none of Yorkson's words will be listened to by Nattle.

Yorkson, who was really bored, looked up and suddenly came up with a brilliant idea. He immediately tugged at Trode's trouser legs, and when he looked down, he smiled and said, "Why don't we two change?" Sitting here can also give Nattle a point. ”

At first, Trode thought Yorkson was joking. However, it doesn't seem like that from his expression, but even so, Trode thinks it's a joke, because Trode doesn't know how to drive a tank at all, and he just wanted to turn down Yorkson, but he immediately thought that this battle didn't really need to move the tank, at least not for now, and it wouldn't waste much time for the two to exchange back when they moved, and there was an important point......

"Okay, you come over here and use this, I'll go and help Natle take a look." Trood agreed, and the two immediately completed the exchange, with Yorkson taking control of the machine gun on the roof of the car, while Trood sat in the driver's seat, indicating the targets that could be easily destroyed.

"Whew...... Still not used to it......" Trode moved his shoulder, although it only took MG-34 for a while, he still felt a little sore in his shoulder, and the most important thing was that this soreness was exchanged for no results, with Trode's marksmanship blindly strafing the Soviet troops with cover, it couldn't cause any damage at all, which was a well-known thing in the 217 squad. And this is a big reason why Trode and Yorkson were exchanged, just because he didn't want to use machine guns.

Trode, who is sitting on the driver's seat, has a significantly different vision than usual, the most important thing is that the line of sight is much lower, and the things that can be seen are also narrow and limited, and the most important thing is that he can't observe the situation in all directions like the top observation mirror of the car commander, the driver's observation mirror can only see the situation in front, but like this kind of positional defensive battle, it is enough to see the situation in front, and when I think of Stein' After not seeing the light of day all year round, he could still see the situation ahead after swapping places, and Trode was already very satisfied.

But even in this position, Trood was able to give Natl a lot of useful advice. Compared with Yorkson, Trode can distinguish which ones are really conducive to the attack of the gunner at the beginning, and those enemies that cannot be seen because of the visual field factor, Trode can also analyze with combat experience, roughly calculate the importance of the enemy army in this direction, intercept those junk information directly in his mind, and only talk about the information that he thinks is useful, although the adoption rate is not 100%, but he does not know how many times stronger than Yorkson's nonsense.

On Yorkson's side, although he didn't have very good marksmanship, he was still much better than Trode, and the combination of short burst fire and burst fire was even more organized than that of Nattle's gunner, ensuring ammunition while improving accuracy, thus truly reflecting the value of this exchange.
