Chapter 127: Long Live the Infantry

In less than 5 minutes, all 7 T-34/85 tanks representing the level of the Soviet military industry in World War II were killed.

The German Leopard tank and the No. 3 assault gun used 75mm guns, but Lynn could have determined that his "Night Leopard" was the only master of the fierce artillery battle that took place within 200 meters. Sharp and accurate artillery fire, agile and rapid movement, coupled with the echo of the step and tacit cooperation, this battle is clean and beautiful!

In this battle, Lynn and his combat team also killed 30 Soviet soldiers, including the Soviet infantry who fought with the tanks and the Soviet armored soldiers who escaped from the damaged tanks, but he had the heart to applaud but could not hide the deep regret in his heart: The Allied forces led by the United States carried out a long-term and high-intensity heavy bombardment of Germany with a powerful strategic bombing force, causing the German military industrial system to collapse early, not to mention large-scale military production, and even normal weapon maintenance is difficult to maintain. The Night Leopard and the Me-262, a technological weapon with obvious superiority, will probably never reach the number needed to turn the tide of the war.

This meant that such classic battles were a flash in the pan of the Reich's ends, and served no other than to demonstrate the courage and skill of the German soldiers.

Changing into a magazine, Lynn resolutely turned around and shouted to his soldiers, "167th Combat Group, follow me!" ”

The Soviet tank squads that had arrived with reinforcements were eliminated, and the German breakout troops resumed the offensive without pause. At this time, there were still many Soviet infantry in the area on the side of the street, although they could not threaten the two German tanks at medium and long distances, they could rely on dense guns and bullets to stop the accompanying German infantry, and when they were close enough, they could use anti-tank grenades, Molotov cocktails and other weapons to effectively attack the German two tanks. At the end of the artillery battle, the "Night Leopard" and the No. 3 assault gun slowly advanced towards the street entrance, and at the same time used vehicle-mounted machine guns to suppress the ruins where the Soviet troops were hiding, but it was obvious that it was difficult to kill and injure a large number of Soviet infantry who were relying on the broken walls to block the attack.

Except for Wolfrum who protects Eva. Votteridge followed, and Lynn with all his soldiers intent on destroying the Soviet soldiers at the southeast corner of the street in one fell swoop. However, in the dark environment, it is still night soldiers like him and Brewer who can really play a combat role. Holding MP44 assault rifles equipped with infrared searchlights and infrared telescopes, the two alternated in a non-standard two-man tactical formation to cover the advance, quickly approaching the ruins where the Soviet soldiers had deployed defenses. At this time, most of the Soviet soldiers were still paying attention to the direction of the street, but after all, there was a fierce exchange of fire on Lynn's side just now, and some Soviet soldiers had already implemented a defensive defense in reverse, and once they sensed that an enemy was approaching, they used submachine guns and grenades to intercept it very resolutely.

Although the heavy darkness obscures the sight of the naked eye, whether it is a blind strafing bullet, or a high-explosive offensive grenade and a multi-fragmentation defensive grenade thrown with the eyes closed, it is a very direct threat to the attacking infantry, and Lynn and their even if they are staring at the infrared night vision equipment all the time, they cannot avoid the enemy's bullets in advance, let alone identify a grenade that is about to explode.

Since the sneak attack failed, Lynn immediately changed his tactics and ordered the soldiers: "Jump forward!" ”

In the tactical instructions of the "vampire" commando, "jumping forward" is of course not jumping forward, but refers to using the terrain to cover each other during the offensive and breaking through the enemy's defenses in a "stop-advance-stop-advance" manner, and this tactic is also called "infantry assault". It first arose in the late First World War, when in order to break the stalemate of trench warfare, the German army selected experienced veterans from the front-line troops to form the "Storm Commando". When the offensive was launched, several assault teams alternated using trenches, craters, and all available cover, and made full use of mortars, grenades, submachine guns, and flamethrowers to break through positions, repeatedly breaking through the defensive positions of the Entente [***] in the last offensives of the Western Front, and performed quite well. It's a pity that in this war of endurance, the Allied side that was helped by the United States finally survived the victory.

Finding a broken wall with only half of it remaining, Lynn stopped. Through the infrared telescopic scope, he can very clearly observe targets tens of meters away. Although most of the figures were only half-high, he still shot and killed with confidence. Half a cartridge of bullets was fired without the gun leaving the target, and I thought that the firepower on the opposite side would be weakened, but the bullets flying in the dark not only did not decrease, but it seemed to have increased!

Lynn was unwilling, but it was very simple to understand: the Soviet soldiers were basically relying on the bunker to block the attack, and they were not biased, but it took time for the bullets to fly after all. As long as the opponent bows his head and bends down in time, he has every chance to avoid the bullet. In this way, the effect of point shooting from a distance of several tens of meters will naturally be discounted.

With the current combat situation, the longer it drags on, the better it will be for the enemy. Lynn turned his mind and shouted to his companions not far away: "Anton, you take everyone here to contain the enemy's fire, advance carefully!" Brewer, you and I take a detour from the right! ”

Unconsciously, "Quasimodo", who is accustomed to bowing down and acting, has become Lynn's most effective helper. The two of them quickly got up, avoided the front of the fierce Soviet fire, stepped on the large and small broken bricks and tiles, climbed over the high and low broken walls, and stumbled to a large collapsed building. Lynn scanned it with an infrared searchlight and found two looming afterimages at the top of the ruins.

"Brewer, cover me!"

With a whisper, he slung his assault rifle and climbed to the top of the rubble. It was a special climbing competition, where the enemy who occupied the vantage point at the top of the ruins heard a noise below, and then leaned out and fired rifles and submachine guns, dark red bullets making extremely short trajectories in the darkness, hitting cement slabs or other hard objects to shoot faint sparks.

Da ...... Da ...... Da ...... Hearing the crisp sound of MP44 shooting behind him, Lynn knew the bottom of his mind, and continued to climb up with courage, deliberately staggering some distance from the enemy's hiding place. Approximately at the same height as the enemy position he had previously observed, he stopped moving and carefully picked up his assault rifle. Aiming from the side did give him more angles, and when one of them got up to fire, he held his breath and fired two rounds at the brightly colored head, and the figure in the infrared telescope immediately made a forward motion.

Seeing that his companion was killed, another Soviet soldier on the top of the ruins immediately fired at Lynn with a submachine gun. Lynn was prepared, and quickly sat down with his back in the rubble, which happened to be a little dented, which helped him to dodge all the bullets, and the following Bruyer opened fire in time, only to hear the man let out a muffled grunt, and the gunfire stopped.

No joy, no pride, Lynn picked up the assault rifle, pulled out the shell gun in his left hand, and helped his feet crawl the ruins with his right hand, and finally climbed to the top of the ruins - it was only a little more than two meters above the ground, but it could form a bird's-eye view of a large area within a hundred meters.

Lynn looked through the infrared telescope: the location of dozens of Soviet soldiers was clear at a glance.

Finding a position where he could crouch and shoot, he took the opportunity to glance farther away, and the "Night Leopard" had already crossed the street and tried its best to suppress the Soviet position diagonally with its vehicle-mounted machine guns, while the weaker No. 3 assault gun followed far behind, and from time to time fired a shot at the most dense place of enemy fire. Driven by the strong desire for survival**, the German infantry who had been blocked before rose up to attack, but their flesh and blood were unable to resist the Soviet army's bullets, and many fell at the street entrance, and some were suppressed by the enemy in the ruins along the street before they crossed the street.

After all, is it up to me to be the savior?

With a complex mood of self-confidence, pride, helplessness, and gloom, Lynn seems to be engaged in a difficult game mission, and he can't pass the level with his own strength alone, and he must keep his main RPG - these guys are very good at fighting, but the blood is not thick enough, and they can't withstand the enemy's group beating and beating, and the enemy is "cunning and cunning". As a result, not only do you have to provide accurate long-range firepower, but you also have to play the role of a scavenger if necessary.

Sometimes, thinking too much is also a fantasy, and Lynn put away some nostalgia for his past gaming career and threw all his energy into the battle in front of him. Unloading the magazine with only a dozen rounds left, and loading the last "double magazine" that he carried with him, it was just as Brewer also climbed to the "top of the ruins". Lynn let out a low roar of "Let these Russians go home and farm", and opened fire with the domineering spirit of the king of the 100-meter point shot.

In the infrared telescope sight, the first two bullets passed, and a Soviet soldier who was fighting in the opposite direction against the German night troops was immediately turned over - the natural reaction of a simple human body silhouette is not easy to deceive the eye. Lynn immediately fine-tuned the muzzle of the gun, and two shots hit another Russian soldier not far away, he seemed to be shot in the head, and the posture of raising his hands and leaning back was slightly exaggerated, so after the man fell to the ground, Lynn indifferently followed his upper body and made up for a third shot, which turned the muzzle of the gun to another target. These steps of aiming and shooting may sound complicated, but in reality, the time interval is so short that almost all of them are judged intuitively in a split second.

The commanding heights in the ruins frequently fired deadly bullets, and the experienced Soviet non-commissioned officers and soldiers naturally would not be indifferent, Lynn had not yet opened a magazine, and suddenly saw a series of dark red points of light flying in, relying on the rapid reaction ability he had cultivated on the battlefield, he immediately made the most concise dodge action: bow his head. The upper body and arms were pressed downward, and the assault rifle did not have time to be completely retracted, so the muzzle of the gun was raised, and the body of the gun and the infrared searchlight scope were pressed down, and the Soviets did not have similar night vision equipment, they relied more on the judgment of the trajectory of the bullet to guess the enemy's position, and carried out a plane cleaning of the area within a certain area with the continuous strafing of light machine guns and submachine guns.

The bullet swept across the cement block in front of him and chirped, Lynn didn't like this sound that was worse than a metal knife and fork scraping a porcelain plate, once he avoided the enemy's strafing, he was not in a hurry to change positions, but quickly took aim with his gun, and according to the position of the Soviet shooter he had just glimpsed, he found those Soviet soldiers who thought they could avoid the retaliatory shot by changing positions, and accurately named them one by one.
