One hundred and nine. Terton
"Bang bang", when Steinman's tank was firing with all his might, several shells hit the side of the tank, but they were all bounced off due to the angle.
At this time, a voice came from Steinman's headset: "Steinman, the jamming bomb has failed......"
"I can hear you and know that the jamming bomb has failed......" Steinman smiled bitterly, he didn't expect the jamming bomb to fail so quickly, no wonder the side was attacked, it seems that the US army is going to fight back.
"Tanks break through enemy lines, don't care about the flanks! Infantry rely on the wreckage to cover the rear of the tank! ”
The German tanks smashed through the wreckage again and began to stab deep into the American tank group. "Boom, boom, boom" The German tanks rushed and struck, and immediately broke through the firepower network of the American tanks with lightning speed, and at this time, a considerable part of the American tanks had been destroyed, and although the German tanks were full of bullet marks, they did not do any substantial damage. Some of the American tanks that tried to sneak attack the German tanks were destroyed by the German infantry as soon as they detoured to the road, and because of the proper coordination, the German army achieved great results, and the American troops did not expect that such a weak rear army would cause them such a big problem.
"Bang! "Ka Ka" was in the midst of a fierce artillery battle between the two sides, when a strange sound appeared.
"What's going on! Whose tank was hit! Steinman could tell it was a metallic sound unlike when an American tank was hit.
"Ruth's car was hit! It's already on fire! Bentonson said in a panic and drove the car to Ruth's car, which was already on fire, and covered Ruth's car while firing guns.
"Damn...... That...... What is that? "Steinman suddenly spotted a strange tank mixed in with the U.S. tank group: a short barrel. The additional armor in the front of the hull, an antenna in the upper part of the turret, proved to be different from the surrounding tanks.
"That's a division-level command tank! Knock him out! Steinman finally recognized the source of the tank. And if this tank is destroyed, the US tank force will lose its command.
"Boom! Rumble! Steinman's car fired two shots in succession, but they were blocked by the onrushing American tanks.
"So many substitutes...... Bentenson, Deske! Outflank him left and right, be sure to knock him out! ”
"Captain, you don't have to go! Let me go! Ruth, who was already injured, said loudly.
"What? You're all hurt! Retreat! ”
"Let me go! I can't go back! Ruth's words shocked Steinman, could it be ...... Steinman suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Ruth! You're going to have to hold on to me no matter what! ”
"Captain, I'm the only one left in the car. The other crew members were killed, they were British tank soldiers who volunteered to stay......" Ruth's last sentence was a little crying: "...... British tank corps ...... "" captain. They thought we were fighting for their country, and a few of them agreed with us, so they volunteered to stay, and now. I'm the only one left in the car...... Yes...... Both legs were broken...... This ...... It's too heavy...... Captain. I really can't hold it anymore. ”
Steinman was silent, he seemed to have anticipated what his next move would be: "You...... Can't hold on a little longer? ”
After all, Steinman couldn't bear to give up his comrades-in-arms, not to mention that Ruth had been fighting with him for two years, this kind of friendship, a difficult choice at this time, no one knew how sad Steinman's heart was now.
"Captain, I've installed a powerful explosive on the tank loader, and you'll cover me when the time comes. And then I crashed into it...... You can destroy it...... Don't remember me, forget me better. I'm an outcast of a nation......"
"Shut up! I will remember everything that happened here for future generations! You won't be forgotten! Steinman's eyes were blurred at this time, and he would do his best to fulfill their wishes for his brothers, so that they would not be forgotten, and what Ruth said was the true heart of every German army, who endured humiliation and fought for the Germans, for their homeland.
The brutal and bloody war has long made Steinman's heart numb, but the sacrifice of every German brother will hit him hard, because every German sacrifice means the disappearance of a promise, the disappearance of a hope, and now......
The "Rumble" tank rushed at the command tank that had retreated into the American tank group at maximum speed.
"Fire cover!" Steinman yelled hysterically, his right index finger constantly pulling the trigger for the artillery firing.
"Send my brother the last ride!" Bentonson yelled at Steinman's voice, and at this moment, he could no longer control the grief and anger in his heart.
The Germans poured their anger into the tank shells, and the shells kept hitting the American tanks that came to intercept them, and Ruth's tank had already seen the command tank, and the shells kept hitting the tank, but they couldn't stop the tank from impacting......
"When—" The tank collided with the command tank, and the force of the impact caused both sides to break their tracks at the same time......
Ruth smiled, as if something had redeemed him...... His index finger gently pressed the detonation button...... "Boom-" The tank and the command tank exploded at the same time......
"Kill me!" "For Germany!" The Germans were completely enraged, and the German soldiers launched a decisive assault on the leaderless American troops...... They have made this a veritable crossroads of death......
Two hours later, the vanguard of the American army, which had been reduced by 90 percent, retreated.
Here, it's the intersection of death......
......
Rumble! With a loud bang, a house on either side of the main road in the city of Teton was blown up, creating a new ruin and barricade.
"Hurry up! I'm going to make this the graveyard of the American military. Steinman said in an extremely calm tone, with a hideous expression on his face that did not match his words. The Germans, who had already withdrawn into the city, were again engaged in preparations for street fighting against Teton after a short rest.
The Germans distributed most of their forces on the main roads, while a small part of their forces were placed in the core defensive areas as reserves, in order to be able to gain an advantage and surprise in street fighting. The Germans deliberately blew up a few houses to act as barricades, and at the same time placed a small number of tanks in the buildings to be useful in the event of an attack, and the Germans moved out some mines and explosives that were about to be destroyed in warehouses and placed them on key roads and in some houses in the hope that they would be more effective. The accompanying artillery of the German army was placed in the core defensive area. Fire support can be provided from any direction within the city of Teton. And German reinforcements are also on their way.
Bentonson ran over to Steinman with a pile of explosives: "Stanman, this pile of explosives can be distributed to the other brothers here for the time being, it will be useful to blow up the tank later." ”
Steinman nodded. He took the explosives and placed them on the ground: "Brothers, take two explosives each, hurry." ”
Steinman knew in his heart that the tank impact of the American army in street fighting was extremely bold. This is very different from the training policy of all countries. And this led to the fact that the armies engaged with the American army could no longer stick to the old rules, that is, not to think that the tank clusters of the American army in street battles would not dare to enter the city.
"Steinman, I'm on Sumant Street, there's an anti-aircraft gun here, but it's not very good for defense, what do you think I should do?" Deske's voice came from the headset.
Steinman was a little overwhelmed by this, and he knew that the streets now guarded by the Germans were some of the most important roads, and they could also maneuver to support each other in street fighting. He didn't know what was going on on Sarmante Street, and he wasn't understaffed right now. He only knew that once one street was lost, all the other streets would be affected: "Desk, contact me when you need support, our side is understaffed." Steinman said helplessly.
"Stanman, we're going to have to cooperate with each other then, right?" Deske asked jokingly.
"Definitely." Steinman replied, picking up his binoculars and preparing to observe the situation in the distance.
"Steinman, I'm Romeo, the scouts have spotted that the vanguard of the American army is heading towards you, about 30 tanks and a regiment of infantry, you must be careful......"
Romeo broke off inexplicably before he could finish speaking, and Steinman patted the headset with his hand, thinking that there was something wrong with the headset, but nothing happened.
"Enemy tank!" Cole, who was standing at a high observation post, spotted a group of U.S. tanks rushing towards him with his scope.
"Bentonson! Get back to your defensive positions! Steinman gave Bentonson a nudge of his hand and ran inside a ruin.
"All in place! Get ready for battle! ”
"Shelling!"
"Boom-boom! Bang! "The shells flew through the main road with a terrible sound and landed in the central square not far behind, and the sound of explosions and houses collapsing was heard......
At this time, most of the houses on both sides of the main road where Steinman is located have been blown down, and only some ruins remain, which provides convenience for the defenders, and this will make the attackers realize what a rat war is. The attacker's nightmare is often street fighting, but this time, it will be a vicious battle.
"Rumble", the US tanks appeared on the main road, due to the excessive rubble and ruins, the US tanks moved extremely slowly, one after another tanks roared up the ruins, swaying on the bumpy ruins and struggling to advance, while groups of infantry were distributed on both sides of the tank column, preventing possible attacks from the ruins on both sides. At this time, a group of American infantry soldiers following in the rear divided into three lines, one to Sarmante Street, all the way to the main road, and the other to Pushkin Street, a considerable number of American infantry had already entered the northern city of Teton.
"Steinman, there are 3 tanks in the middle, nearly 100 infantry, and a flatbed armored car in the rear, please instruct." Cole spotted the U.S. troops in the center, while he himself was hiding in front of a ruined pile in front of him.
"Steinman, I found nearly 300 infantry and 10 tanks here, and there are a lot of enemies." Deske was still spitting out before the big battle.
"Calm down, wait for my orders." As he spoke, Steinman hunched over to the back of a pile of rubble, where there was a wheeled assault gun brought by the Germans. It hid behind the rubble and made a small hole in the rubble that served as a shooting hole. But the barrel was not exposed, so it was very well concealed, and on both sides of the assault gun, a dozen German troops were on standby, and their machine guns and grenade launchers were aimed at the unsuspecting American troops. Steinman held his breath as he watched the approaching U.S. troops. He turned to look at the rear, where a cannon had been urgently deployed, and the muzzle of the gun was facing the infantry on either side of the tank. The battle is on the verge of breaking out. It's just that Steinman remained silent.
"Attack begins!"
"Boom!" The assault gun fired first, and with one shot, it paralyzed a tank in front of it, and the American tanks behind did not expect to brake in time and crashed into each other.
"Bang!" As soon as the American infantry on both sides tried to disperse, the explosives planted by the Germans on both sides of the road were detonated. The narrow road has turned it almost into a slaughterhouse. Scattered shrapnel flew around the narrow block, bouncing off the plane, shattering almost all of the infantry on either side of the tank, and the tank in the middle of the road was bruised. The powerful shock wave and shrapnel damaged all the tracks of the remaining tanks, and the tank, which was already struggling to move, became wriggling.
"Cole! Cover Joannis them! Steinman threw a fragmentation grenade, knocking over several U.S. infantrymen who were trying to hide in their houses.
"Understood!" "Bang Bang Bang" Cole fired three shots in succession, killing the two gunners on the flatbed armored car on the gun position, and another rapid-fire knock out the two American infantrymen who were ready to come up to take over. At this time, Jonnis and Sasha, who had lost the threat of melee fire, each took an explosive block and rushed out of the pile of rubble. Under the cover of the wreckage of the first tank, they quickly reached the vicinity of the two tanks behind.
"Bang-boom!" Steinman stands on a broken wall. A grenade was fired between the second and third tanks, and the sputtering shrapnel and anti-personnel waves again damaged the tank tracks. "Click
With the sound of a metal turning, the two tanks began to turn the turret, which clearly hit Steinman's heart: the tank was trying to raise the turret to attack Steinman......
"Jonis! Let's go! Taking advantage of the stupidity of the American tank, Jonnis rushed out of hiding and quickly placed an explosive block on the side armor plate of the tank, and Sasha also rushed out, throwing the explosive block on the tank's storage box with the usual accuracy of his own bomb. The two quickly evacuated and hid behind a pile of rubble. "Boom!" Two tanks were detonated, their turrets were blown away, and some of the surrounding broken walls collapsed due to the shock wave......
The American forces in the middle were temporarily annihilated......
"Hidden! Hide! "Boom! Boom! "The battle on Symant Street became a fever pitch. Indeed, as Deske said, it was unsuitable for defense, and the excessively wide roads allowed the American tanks to spread out in large numbers, and their melee artillery quickly set up emplacements to suppress the Germans with dense fire, while a large number of its infantry marched rapidly from the streets on both sides in the hope of being able to crush the Germans from the flanks.
“...... Fire fire fire fire fire! Want to lose?! Deske hid behind a pile of sandbags, blindly raising his rifle above his head and shooting indiscriminately at the front.
"Deske! With heavy force! The rabbi shouted, throwing a grenade out.
"I forgot......" Deske got up and pressed the headset: "Heavy high-explosive bombs, target: Central Bank of Samant Street!" ”
"Howling-" Two high-explosive shells fell from the sky and accurately hit the middle of the American artillery, because it was a high-explosive shell, its huge power was about to blow up the surrounding exposed artillery. Several more shells fell, blowing up the remaining artillery......
"Deske, how are you there?" Coming to his senses, Steinman began to inquire about the situation on Sumant Street. "There are too many enemies! It's not good for defense! ”
"Boom! Rumble! "Two shells hit a bunker and blew up rubble.
"Hold on!" Steinman knows that this kind of chaotic street fighting, even if it is separated by a street, it is extremely difficult to support each other, and most of the time they have to fight on their own.
"Rabbi! Take a few people to manipulate that anti-aircraft gun, and Carl take a few people up to those houses! Get ready to fight back! Deske ordered to jump out of the sandbag at the same time, jumped into a small ditch by the side of the road, and picked up several fragmentation grenades and incendiary grenades that had been stocked up.
"Punctuality! Fire! "Bang!" The anti-aircraft guns finally opened fire, and due to their muzzle velocity and smooth trajectory, the shells accurately hit a tank with one hit, and the tank exploded on the spot, and the surrounding infantry was lifted by the air wave.
"Bang!" Another shot was fired, and one on the right side of it was pierced, and the force was so great that it not only destroyed its engine, but also damaged its running gear, and then exploded. The streets of Samant Street, which used to appear relatively wide, have been blocked by two-thirds by now.
The American infantry on either side began to accelerate towards the piles of rubble on either side to avoid the German fire network and enter the interior of some of the remaining houses.
"They actually went up to the rubble...... "Deske saw several pairs of American infantry climbing up the rubble with the scope on his rifle, which was a clear death.
Enemy attack! ”
"What?" A group of American infantry suddenly appeared behind Sarmante Street, and Deske did not expect the detour of American infantry to be so fast.
"Fire fire, fire!" Deske hurriedly raised his gun to shoot, and the sound of heavy machine guns came from the rear of the American infantry......
"Hey, we're here to support you!"
A voice came from behind, and then a huge hull appeared!
"Leopard IX.?" Deske couldn't believe what he was seeing! (To be continued......)
