Soon Scott and the others approached the first row of buildings in Benghazi, most of which were made of reinforced concrete, and a few of the ancient buildings were made of stone.

No matter what kind of buildings they are, they are relatively strong, and the German artillery bombardment just now is still relatively fierce, but the effect is not great, it only blows these buildings out of large and small holes.

Many of the buildings on both sides of Sammy Avenue were smoking, and Scott and his cat were behind the tanks, slowly advancing underneath them.

None of the enemy soldiers fired at them, and Scott, regardless of whether the enemy was plotting or not, hurriedly rushed out from behind the tank with his men, and then rushed into the houses on the edge of the city under mutual cover.

The German combat group was basically a squad, and then divided into three groups of four people each, and the tasks of the three groups were different, the first group was responsible for the assault, the second group was ready to support, and the third group was on alert.

Scott led his men into the outermost two buildings, and after a careful search, it was determined that there was not a single enemy here, and it seemed that the British were intending to strangle the Germans in the city, and they did not want to place their limited forces on the edge of the city.

After a brief break, Scott radioed Claes to continue along Sami Avenue toward downtown Benghazi.

This radio was specifically requested by Scott to Luxembourg, and the tank, if not equipped with a radio, was likely to be disconnected from the infantry offensive.

The German Seventh Panzer Division was not short of this radio, so General Luxemburg was very happy to transfer ten radios to Scott, which made the communication between Scott and Claes much easier.

"Captain Claes, keep up to five kilometers per hour, continue along Sammy Street, pay attention to the anti-tank guns on the street in front, your side will be handed over to us, and our front will be handed over to you."

"Understood, Mr. Commander...... Attention cars, pay attention to the enemy anti-tank guns on the street in front of you, and if you don't want to go to hell, keep your eyes on it. ”

Because the two men had the same rank, everyone spoke more politely, and although Scott temporarily commanded Claes's tank company, he was not arrogant.

Besides, the two have been fighting together several times, and their relationship has always been relatively harmonious, and they trust each other very much.

"Puff...... Puff puff...... Don't stick your head out of the tank...... Pay attention to the houses on both sides of the street ......"

The three leading tanks were advancing slowly on foot, and Scott kept sending people to search the buildings on both sides of the street as they went, and to occupy them, Scott couldn't do it.

Because Scott was only the strength of a company, he would never dare to divide his troops to occupy the countless houses on both sides of the street, and behind Scott was the main force of the regiment, and the task of occupation could only fall on them.

Scott: They had just advanced more than 100 meters with the tank, when suddenly a British soldier appeared from the window on the third floor of a building about 30 meters ahead.

The British soldier mounted his light machine gun on the window, and then fired fiercely at the tank below, and the bullets "belled" on the tank's armor.

The British soldier machine gunner, who was supposed to be using a Czech light machine gun, ran out of ammunition in a matter of seconds.

Then he disappeared from the window, and the very sudden attack made Scott's heart suddenly nervous for a while.

Because Scott had been demanding that his soldiers not stick their heads out of the tank, no soldiers were injured in the sneak attack.

The leading tank reacted very quickly, and quickly turned the muzzle of the gun to the window, and there was a "boom".

The 50-millimeter tank gun hit the windowsill, and the violent explosion immediately blew up the masonry around the windowsill in all directions.

The wooden windows and doors on the windowsill were also torn to pieces, and the British soldier who had just disappeared was not blown away by the tank guns, and it seemed that he had run away.

Before the stopped firing tank had started, several British soldiers suddenly appeared on top of the building on the right.

They took the weapons in their hands and disappeared after a few bumping shots, and even a few grenades were thrown out of the windows and smashed on the tank.

Fortunately, these grenades were not thrown at the back of the tank, but smashed into the front end of the tank, and the explosion of the "boom" sounded continuously.

The smoke from the grenade explosion made people want to cough, and the leading tank on the right quickly turned its gun to shoot at the window on the right, and the coaxial machine gun on the tank also quickly sprayed a rain of bullets.

"Click...... Boom ......"

Scott and the others were no longer safe behind the tank, as long as the enemy threw explosive packs and grenades in the buildings on both sides of the street, Scott and them could suffer heavy casualties, so Scott had to use a new tactic.

He shouted behind him:

"The first row attacked the building on the left, the second row attacked the building on the right, and the third row followed behind the second group of tanks."

After giving the order, Scott led his infantry squad to the left building quickly, and the other soldiers also followed his squad leader to the designated position.

Because of the fire suppression of tank guns and coaxial machine guns, the enemy hiding in the buildings on both sides of the street could only occasionally come out and lay down cold guns, so that no one was killed as a result.

Scott led the people to the door of a building, the door was locked, Scott quickly pulled out a wooden-handled grenade from his waist, pulled off the fuse, stuffed it under the door frame, and then quickly dodged away.

There was a "boom" explosion, gunpowder smoke and wood chips flew everywhere, and the wooden gate was blown up by grenades.

There are private houses on both sides of this street, basically there is no iron gate, this is Libya, not the middle && country of later generations, every household is equipped with anti-theft doors, anti-theft windows, and it is basically not seen here.

Scott, who blew up the door, did not let the soldiers immediately charge, but threw another grenade into it.

"Boom...... Yes!!! The explosion of the grenade was mixed with a scream, and it seemed that there was an enemy hiding in the room, who was now reimbursed by the grenade thrown by Scott.

Scott gestured to his soldiers, and the others nodded in understanding.

Scott suddenly flashed and rushed into the room, with soldiers on their left and right, their guns pointed in different directions in the room, and whenever there was movement in that direction, their P35 submachine guns would shoot at them.

When Scott rushed in, he found a half-dead enemy in the corner still struggling on the ground, and a small crater not far from him, which was caused by the explosion of a grenade thrown by Scott.

As soon as Scott rushed into the room, he shot at the enemy who was still struggling on the ground, and the enemy on the ground stood up for two and then did not move.

There is no mercy on the battlefield, mercy to the enemy is cruelty to oneself, and there is no sympathy to talk about in war.

Rommel taught his soldiers in time:

"Treat friends as warm as a spring breeze, and treat enemies as cruelly as the autumn wind sweeping away leaves."

Rommel's soldiers worshipped Rommel as if they were gods, and their Rommel's teachings were also taken to heart, and Rommel's teachings were always used as a code of conduct.
