Chapter 337: Three-Dimensional Offensive (Part II)

The limited number of artillery pieces and the limited ammunition were difficult for Hans, who was accustomed to fighting with great slashes. First of all, self-propelled guns can advance to a closer point than towed guns to strike at the enemy, but they are not weapons that can deliver precision strikes, so it is not easy to use them well in this battle.

In order to cover the entire battlefield more comprehensively, Hans placed two Grilles in different positions. On Trode's side, in fact, he is more concerned about the enemy's configuration, because he knows that there is a warehouse with enemy weapons hidden here, so the enemy's firepower ratio must not be too weak, because he wants to attack with the infantry, it is necessary to avoid its edge, so as to reduce unnecessary casualties. However, the battlefield was not like a drill, and he was allowed to go a second time, and at the beginning he had to try to figure out the structure of the base in front of him.

However, it is a pity that even the friendly forces who are preparing to attack this base have only a small part of the information because they cannot scout its interior at all, and they don't even know which building is located in this base where the weapons are stored.

"......Huh" Trode sighed slightly disappointed, although the previous mission introduction was quite interesting, but after a careful understanding, it turned out to be a pure blind state of "unknown enemy number, unknown firepower ratio, and unknown target location", which made him regret choosing this mission a little. But now that they have come to this point, it is not his style to retreat, or there is a Longtan Tiger's Den in front of him, and Trode is also going to break through.

After forming a formation with the infantry, Trood chose a direction that "seemed to be easier to break through" and marched. At first, the situation was good, although it was known that there was an arsenal in it, but it seemed that there were no anti-tank guns. Because of Trood, they swaggered forward, and they were not attacked at all. But. It would be naïve to think that the enemy is a fool......

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Bang!"

Just as Trode and his infantry were approaching the outer edge of the base, they were subjected to the first shelling, landing several shells in their formation, one of which hit the front armor of Leona's tank. With the power and the way it fell, Trode guessed that it was the enemy's mortar. In order to avoid being directly found by ground forces and at the same time expand the attack area, many mortar units chose to set up positions on rooftops, so Trode was not in a hurry to find the enemy's artillery positions at the moment. Because if you act rashly at this moment, the impact of the enemy can be quite fatal in the case of unstable position. In this uncertain place, Trood has to be very careful in everything he decides.

However, Trood's stability does not mean that the infantry can also be stable, although there are no heavy casualties, but if you stand there, you will be bombed sooner or later, so the infantry squad leader immediately ordered the infantry to cling to the houses on both sides to avoid mortar attacks.

However, in the face of this situation, the German army was also prepared, and Trode immediately contacted the two Grilles on the outside and said: "We are now under enemy artillery fire, and the target should be on the roof of the southeast of the base." Can you see that? ”

"Found it!"

It took only about half a minute for a Grille with a slightly better observation angle to spot the target, and after informing the other of the coordinates of the location, two Grille self-propelled guns simultaneously hit the target area.

"Boom!"

A 150mm grenade is much more powerful than a mortar shell. Although it was not possible to accurately determine the extent of the enemy's losses, after two rounds of fire, the enemy's mortars also stopped firing. In order to save shells, Trood also ordered them to stop firing.

The tank takes the lead. Under the cover of the infantry, the German unit slowly advanced deep into the base. But weapons are a necessity for warfare, so how could the Soviets easily give them away?

At the time of a crossroads on the road. Trood and the others were suddenly hit by a three-dimensional blow, and many infantry gunners drilled out of the surrounding buildings, most of which were machine guns and submachine guns, and those who did not have the first two were compensated by grenades. Not only that, on the first and second floors of the building in front of Trode, there were anti-tank guns that had been ambushed in advance to strike at them, if it weren't for the large gap in the level of equipment, Trode estimated that they would have been knocked out one or two tanks the moment they came into contact with the enemy.

But this is a battlefield, and no one will talk about fair play with the enemy......

First of all, due to the narrowness of the street, the fire could not be deployed, Trod let the tanks of Amphitri and Heard (now commanding IV. Jianzhong) move closer to the left and right, and then the tanks behind continued to move their positions, because the IV J was shorter, the IV could shoot behind it, and this narrow street, which could only allow two tanks to run in parallel, was adjusted by Trod, and the firepower of seven combat vehicles was unfolded! (Since the further back the vehicle fires at a limited angle, these seven are not comparable to the usual seven.) )

Considering that it was an urban battle, the enemy could not have been left without anti-tank guns, and the chance of tanks appearing would be low, so Trod had already ordered all tanks to be loaded with high-explosive grenades for the first shell to deal with enemy infantry.

The shells just flew out of the window, and the enemy's anti-tank guns were still hidden in the house, because the sunlight could not reach them, so Trood could not see the specific location of the anti-tank guns, but the shells were things that would not turn, as long as they followed the general direction of the enemy's attack, and hit them back in this direction, the splash strike of the high-explosive grenade would find them out!

"Aim at the window of the building on the first floor and fire a salvo!"

Seven tanks fired one after another, and a fire reflected in the dark room, and after the smoke passed, you could see that the walls of the room had been pierced, and then the light from that side could see that a 37mm-M1930 anti-tank gun that had been blown up and deformed was falling weakly to the side, as for the gunner, it was unknown.

"Aim for the second floor and keep fighting!"

Now that they know that the enemy's weapon is only a 37mm anti-tank gun, they don't have to worry, at least Trood, they don't have to worry...... (To be continued.) )
