As the fighting continued, the enemy's commanders seemed reluctant to withdraw the troops that had already "attacked" a certain area, hoping to drive Zhang Shixin's troops out of the city of Gelsarin in one fell swoop.

However, he forgot that the OLS-HT35 heavy tank that he was able to use against Zhang Shixin's tank tank tank formation was actually a "tank destroyer" with weak defense and mobile surname.

When the King Tiger tanks, which they couldn't penetrate effectively, appeared on the battlefield, these OLS-HT35 heavy tanks suffered a lot of bad luck.

It is also a 105mm caliber shell, but the 105mm shell of the OLS-HT35, hitting the King Tiger tank, basically adds light gray scratches to the front of the majestic body of the King Tiger tank, and leaves a concave black mark.

However, the King Tiger tank's long 105mm gun can be hit and will inevitably penetrate.

Although in the face of such a large heavy tank, even if the King Tiger's 105mm shells penetrate the opponent, there is still a certain probability that the opponent will not be able to immediately lose their combat effectiveness.

But compared to the fact that most of the opponent's attacks failed to penetrate the Tiger King tank, Zhang Shixin found that he couldn't force such a thing too much.

……

Compared with the situation when Zhang Shixin also transferred the King Tiger tank to the combat area. The coalition tank crew looked helplessly at the King Tiger tank that appeared across the street, tilting the hull at a small angle, and then leading a group of other tank fighting vehicles to continue firing at them.

"Don't bully people like this!"

Their 105mm tank gun could not effectively penetrate the opponent's front armor at all, although there was a small machine gun muzzle on the right side of the hull of the King Tiger tank, but at a distance of more than two hundred meters, the probability of hitting that machine gun muzzle was very low. Shooting at the muzzle of a machine gun is no less difficult than shooting at the lower part of the enemy's hull than hitting the opponent's turret viewing window.

Although they have only been armored soldiers for about half a year, they are also well aware that the damage to the tank caused by an armor-piercing projectile hitting the turret periscope is basically not worth mentioning.

The big deal is to kill the opponent's commander directly, and if you want to detonate the ammunition, maybe you can use a high-explosive shell to smash through the top of the turret of the opponent's tank.

With more and more wingmen damaged in battle, the remaining armored soldiers had to use their tanks and slowly retreat, hoping to get out of the battlefield.

As for the infantry?

As long as they weren't stupid, they wouldn't stay in this place and fight to the death with each other's mixed infantry forces.

Because you can't win at all.

It is true that infantry can inflict severe wounds on tanks.

Even a bottle of energy powder has the potential to burn the opponent's tank.

However, if the opposing tank is protected by well-equipped infantry, the rash infantry will only die a worse death.

Therefore, these armored soldiers knew that as long as they left this hellish combat zone, then these infantry would naturally leave.

But. The most important question now is how they can withdraw from the front with minimal losses.

……………………………………………… Dividing Line................................................

The battle continued in the town area, and Zhang Shixin's troops did not press forward too much, for fear of exposing themselves to the artillery bombardment of the coalition forces that should have been deployed to the north.

Tank fighting vehicle formations are more likely to eliminate or expel the opposing tanks from their field of view, and do not continue to advance, but assist the infantry units in clearing the combat area of the infantry.

What Zhang Shixin didn't know was that the city had not completely evacuated civilians.

This cannot be blamed for the inaction of Gultokati [***], but because, the fighting on the front line ended so quickly, they simply did not have enough time to completely evacuate the civilians.

As a result, some civilians who did not have time to leave had to hide in the basements of their homes or in the sewers of their towns.

When fighting broke out in the region, some civilians were also affected.

Zhang Shixin's team, under the cover of an IS heavy tank, led by a soldier with an AK74 assault rifle, kicked open the door of a relatively intact house, he didn't expect that what he saw was that a coalition soldier who had fled into the house was asking for a pistol and holding a middle-aged woman.

But he didn't hesitate for a moment, but shot directly at the coalition soldier who was hiding behind the middle-aged woman.

Shortly after a few gunshots, the coalition soldier's eyes widened in disbelief as his body slowly fell.

As for the middle-aged woman, because she heard the gun, her body moved indiscriminately, and the result was ......

"......" glanced at the soldier who fell to the ground and convulsed, his left body was dyed blood-red, and the soldier didn't pay much attention, but beckoned the other teammates into the house.

These soldiers are all Zhang Shixin's summons, and they don't care about shooting civilians, but if something unexpected happens, they will not hesitate to pull the trigger.

After the soldiers of the squad had built a small defensive point out of the house, two cries were heard in the hallway.

The leader of the squad carried an AK74 assault rifle and went to the place where the cry came from, only to find a pair of blonde siblings crouching under the body of a middle-aged woman, crying.

"It's okay, everyone continue the mission!" The team leader shouted.

But the next moment, he was surprised to see that the older blonde boy was looking at him with a hateful look.

The team leader walked up and gave the brother and sister who couldn't react a hand knife, knocking the brother and sister unconscious.

Although he is a summoner, they also have their own feelings.

The middle-aged woman's matter, he could only say sorry in his heart.

But he couldn't get them to shoot at unarmed civilians.

Because, Zhang Shixin did not order that they needed to do this.

If Zhang Shixin had given the order to kill indiscriminately, he would have pulled the trigger on the two siblings without any suspense.

And now, he threw the two siblings onto an armored car that was passing on the road. Then get on with your work.

……

Zhang Shixin's headquarters is in a building that has been bombarded by shells, but it is still very strong.

Because of such a battle, it was inconvenient for him to fight in person, so he had to build a temporary command center in this place.

To be honest, Zhang Shixin, who has a tactical map, has a command or something that means nothing to him at all.

However, just like the persuasion of Fei Lei and others, it is too much child's play to go to the front line of the battlefield to fight in person as Zhang Shixin.

He was neither an ordinary creep, nor a middle- or low-ranking officer responsible for leading the troops into battle, so he had no part in the kind of thing that sat in a tank and charged on the front line.

He couldn't tell his secret to others, and under such a premise, Zhang Shixin had to change his combat method and hide in the rear to command the battle.

However, such a situation is not for nothing, at least, without being on the front line, he has a clearer understanding of the benefits of being in the middle of command.

Moreover, there was no need to carry out combat missions, and Zhang Shixin was able to concentrate more on analyzing the battle situation and deriving a better combat situation.

What he cares about now is not the gradual drive to destroy the enemy army, but the reconnaissance of those AMX-13s.

He had to counter as much artillery fire as possible before the enemy bombarded the town into ruins with a large number of artillery.

"Haven't heard yet?" Zhang Shixin asked the members of his communication group.

"Commander, there are too many troops on the other side, and our reconnaissance tanks have to take more time to conduct reconnaissance." The member of the communications team told what he knew.

"Keep listening!" Zhang Shixin had no choice but to give such instructions.

Before destroying the opponent's artillery units, it was not easy for him to allow his self-propelled artillery units to carry out artillery assistance.

After all, that amount of disparity is there. If his self-propelled artillery unit is discovered by the other party, I am afraid that for a while, he will be in trouble.

Although, in the towns, the shelling was very ineffective, because the buildings were very seriously hindered to the ballistics.

Unless the obstruction is simply removed. Otherwise, the results of the shelling would not have improved.

It was for this reason that Zhang Shixin ordered his troops to enter Gelsalin to engage in street battles with the enemy.

Of course, Zhang Shixin knows this truth very well, but he is at a disadvantage in numbers, and at the same time there are a large number of artillery units on the other side, if Zhang Shixin is in the plains south of Gershalin, in order to give full play to the advantages of his armored forces, and have a hard-fought field battle with the other side, it is estimated that he will die a miserable death.

The two evils tend to be lesser, and Zhang Shixin can only use street fighting to delay time.

Compared with Zhang Shixin's record. If it is more true, Zhang Shixin's record in street battles actually far exceeds the field battles.

Under such circumstances, Zhang Shixin also hopes that his "strength" will be reflected again.

The last point is that Zhang Shixin occupies a part of the urban area, which actually does not hurt much, and at the same time, he can advance and retreat relatively easily.

Although the other party was also able to encircle Zhang Shixin's troops, Zhang Shixin brought all summons this time. Even if the tank tank unit is completely wiped out, as long as the soldiers can still control a part of the city, then Zhang Shixin is also in an invincible position.

It's just that there are some problems that Zhang Shixin has to face, that is, many squads will transfer some civilians who have not had time to evacuate to the area near the headquarters.

He didn't care about the cost of supplies, but he had to send dozens of people to maintain order among these people, which had some impact on Zhang Shixin's already not too many troops.

"Alas, it would have been nice to know that I would have summoned more troops......" Zhang Shixin regretted a little, but he also understood in his heart that in street fighting, no matter how many people there were, it would not be enough for the appropriate tactics to be more meaningful.

……

Zhang Shixin's infantry squad was constantly fighting with the infantry scattered into the house by the coalition forces, room by room, floor by floor, and even alley.

"Grenade!" After a small detachment entered a house, a soldier led by a soldier looked at the somewhat strange aisle and shouted in a low voice.

Then, a soldier with an AK74 assault rifle in the back, carrying the gun behind him, took out an M26A2 grenade from the belt, pulled the safety out, waited two seconds, and threw it into an open room.

"Boom"......

The explosions were accompanied by puffs of smoke and screams, and then the infantrymen of this detachment, with their weapons in their hands, leaned on nearby bunkers and fired at the enemy forces that kept coming.

……

In the middle of an alley, a small detachment saw that there was a machine gun position on the balcony on the second floor at the end of the alley, so two soldiers with M14 semi-automatic sniper rifles in their hands carefully crawled on the ground, and after finding a good design environment - behind a garbage can, a sniper half-knelt on the ground, and then carefully half-knelt behind the garbage can, straightening the M14......

"Pong!"

After a shot, a mist of blood erupted from the other side of the heavy's neck, and before the heavy could scream, he tilted to the side.

And the sub-shooter next to him hadn't reacted yet, what was going on, and after another gunshot, the sub-shooter also fell on the balcony.

He was a little luckier than the machine gun shooter, as the bullet destroyed his brain on its own, causing him to die without feeling too much pain.

"Safety!" The squad leader, who was observing the situation, made a safe gesture and was about to continue leading his troops forward when a squad of enemy troops rushed out of the path between the snipers and them.

The team was slightly stunned when the other party found out that there was an enemy in this position, and quickly seized the opportunity to fight back.

Suddenly, there was a burst of gunfire.

The AK-74, M14 and M1911 pistols poured ammunition on the enemy for a short time, and in less than a few seconds, the coalition soldiers of this squad fell in a pool of blood......

The leader of the squad feared that there would be an enemy, so he hurriedly took the lead and climbed into a house......

……

An infantry squad was clearing a house when a soldier was suddenly thrown to the ground by an enemy soldier armed with a bayonet, and an AK-74 assault rifle was thrown to the ground.

The other man's bayonet then plunged down in an attempt to plunge into the soldier's chest.

After three gunshots, the soldier pushed away the enemy body with a face full of disbelief and the luster of life quickly dissipating from his pupils, and he held an M1911 pistol pulled out of the holster of his thigh.

After standing up, the soldier picked up an AK-74 assault rifle from the side.

Instead of paying attention to the enemy who had three 11.43mm bullets in his waist, he continued his mission.

……

A soldier with a Thunderbolt in his hand, after beating an enemy into a hornet's nest, found that the bullets had just run out, and was about to reload, when he suddenly saw several enemies shooting at him from the shadows......

After a while, the soldier fell in a pool of blood, but when the enemy soldiers kicked over the soldier's bent body, they were surprised to find that the soldier's left hand was actually holding an M26A2 grenade, and the safety had just been pulled open......

"Oh, no......" The enemies hurriedly retreated, but it was too late......

After an explosion, the enemies also fell in pools of blood......

…………………………………………………… Dividing line ..........................................

Zhang Shixin naturally knew that his troops were engaged in a tug-of-war with the enemy's infantry, but he did not dare to use armored troops to support, because many areas could be covered by the opponent's artillery fire, so he could only hope that his infantry could play a greater role.

At this time, the whistling of artillery shells was heard in the sky.

Zhang Shixin scolded secretly: "Damn! Even your own people are fried? Do they still have a last name? ”

Although Zhang Shixin knew very well that there were many enemy infantry in the area where the coalition forces had not retreated, after hearing such an artillery bombardment, there was only one thing Zhang Shixin could do......

"Look for bunkers on the spot! Lie down! ”
