Major Rist, commander of the 2nd Battalion of the 443rd Regiment of the 200th Division of the 11th Front Army of the Imperial Army, sat on his armored off-road magic vehicle and looked down at the report, and next to him were the soldiers of the 2nd Battalion who were marching in formation.

The report, which had just been submitted, detailed the battle that had taken place in the advance company an hour earlier, and it mentioned a mysterious magic tank, and the two latest FT-3s were not opponents and were destroyed by the other side, which made Major Rist feel that the otherwise easy task might become very tricky.

The 2nd Battalion of the 443rd Regiment was ordered by his superiors to attack the town of Bruru, and then set up an advance base and material transfer center in the town of Bruru to facilitate the attack of a large force on the capital of the Principality of Gallia, Landogulitz.

But the appearance of the mysterious tank made Major Lister's heart gloomy, "Maybe this operation will not be as easy as imagined." Major Rist thought to himself.

"Boom......!"

An explosion came from the front, causing chaos in the originally neat marching procession, and the soldiers of the Imperial Army, who had good fighting qualities, immediately looked for cover or lay down on the spot after hearing the explosion, and raised their guns to the surrounding woods to prevent someone from sneaking up.

Major Rist also shrank into the armored off-road vehicle, and after waiting for a while, there was no imaginary gunshot, and the explosion was only just now, so he sat up straight and called the herald to ask him to go and see what was going on, and the soldiers of the surrounding Imperial Army also got up from the bunker or the ground, feeling very inexplicable, but the guard had not been lifted.

"Sir, one of the scouts in front of me appears to have stepped on something that would explode, causing him to be injured along with several soldiers around him, and according to the soldiers he saw, the exploding thing was ejected from the ground, about the waist point. ”

"Explosives from the ground?" Major Rist's heart grew darker and darker, and he always felt that the simplicity and ease of this mission were getting farther and farther away.

"The medics were ordered to take the wounded down, and the troops continued to advance. Major Rist put aside his uneasiness for a moment and gave the order.

"Yes!"

The second battalion continued to advance, and this time the scouts who had gone out to explore the road became cautious, observing the surrounding woods and keeping an eye on the road from time to time, they did not want to step on something that could jump up and explode.

However, the mines buried in the ground are difficult to detect with the eyes alone, and in just a few minutes, another Scout of the Imperial Army stepped on a **I-35 mine, which is also known as the jumping mine of the bouncing Betty.

"Ding...... Boom......!"

Several more Scouts of the Imperial Army were wounded, clutching their wounds and lying on the ground screaming loudly.

Scouts from the nearby Imperial Army, who had narrowly escaped the disaster, immediately stepped forward, intending to take their wounded comrades down and hand them over to the barracks for treatment.

"Shoot!"

A shout suddenly came from the woods beside the road, and then a continuous burst of gunfire rang out, shooting a dense barrage of bullets from the woods on the left side of the road, killing and wounding more than a dozen Scouts of the Imperial Army, and the gunfire came and went as fast as it came, stopping in just a few seconds.

The relenting Imperial scouts immediately counterattacked in the direction from which the gunfire came, and after a while of crackling gunfire, there was no reaction in the woods, and the non-commissioned officer leading the team felt very strange, so he ordered to stop shooting and sent several scouts into the woods to check the situation.

"Boom...... Boom......!"

Several scouts who entered the woods stepped on the mines left by the Self-Defense Group to prevent pursuit, and the flesh and blood of the explosion were blurred but they were not dead, and they screamed loudly along with the scouts who had been injured before.

"You guys go save people!"

Under the order of the non-commissioned officer, several scouts who were named reluctantly slowly walked into the woods, they took a step to take a look, for fear that they would also step on the explosives buried in the ground, and the second group of scouts took the injured comrades out of the woods without danger, and immediately had a military doctor come forward to treat them.

"Keep going!"

Ordering all the Scouts of the Imperial Army to change their faces, the road leading to Bruru Town has become a road to hell in their eyes, and they don't know when they will step on a mine, but the military order is like a mountain, and all the scouts can only walk forward.

Ten members of the seventh squad of the Brulu Self-Defense Regiment, plus two Ouyang Yu's personal guards, a total of twelve people, were lying quietly only seventy meters away from the road with branches stuck in their bodies, and in front of them was the marching team of the second battalion of the Imperial Army.

Everyone in the seventh squad has changed into the weapons provided by Ouyang Yu, each with a Suomi submachine gun, and each squad also has a DP light machine gun, and fifty-six grenades, plus a single radio station, which has strong firepower.

"The mines are laid. ”

Ouyang Yu's guards were responsible for laying mines and communications, and each militia squad of the self-defense regiment had two guardsmen.

The captain of the seventh squad nodded, and whispered to the surrounding team members: "Remember Mr. Verugin's explanation, don't be greedy for results, move immediately after shooting a drum, listen to me count down to three, three, two, one, give me a fight!"

"Dada...... Da da ......!"

The militiamen of the Self-Defense Regiment have not received much shooting training, so if they use a single-shot rifle, they will basically not be able to hit people under actual combat conditions, so Ouyang Yu equipped the militiamen with Suomi submachine guns, and the seventy rounds of drums can shoot a few people even if the hit rate is worse, so the results of the sudden attack of the seventh squad are not bad, and more than 20 soldiers of the Imperial Army were shot and fell to the ground.

"Retreat, retreat!"

A drum was shot out in a matter of seconds, and the members of the 7th squad did not even change the drums, and hurriedly crawled backwards after hearing the order to retreat, leaving the squad leader, machine gunners, and guards who did not carry radios to take cover.

After being attacked, the Imperial Army will definitely not let go of the attackers, more than 30 Imperial soldiers rushed towards the seventh squad, they moved flexibly to avoid the bullets fired, so that the hit rate of the three people who blocked the attack plummeted, and the Imperial soldiers on the road were also fighting back, instantly suppressing the three people who blocked and did not dare to raise their heads.

"It's time for us to go, too!"

The guards who stayed behind patted the captain of the seventh squad on the shoulder, then threw out a few grenades, and the three of them slipped away smoothly through the smoke of the explosion.

"Boom...... Boom ......!"

The Imperial soldiers who were pursuing the 7th Squad stepped on a pre-planted mine, and the Guards and the Captain of the 7th Squad smiled at each other when they heard the explosion, and quickened their retreat, and soon disappeared into the depths of the woods after joining up with the team members who had evacuated first.

Because each squad of the Self-Defense Regiment has a radio station, the harassment attack can be started at the same time and retreat at the same time, regardless of the result of the battle, if a drum is finished, it must retreat, so although the loss caused to the second battalion of the Imperial Army is not large, it effectively hits the morale and advance speed of the opponent, and Major Riester has to order the entire unit to search and advance.

"Boom......!"

Another mine was stepped on and injured several Imperial scouts who were exploring the way, plus this explosion dozens of scouts from the second battalion, who were basically sent to the military doctor, Major Rist had no choice but to arrange an FT-3 tank and drag a thick tree trunk to the front, because there were no soldiers who dared to explore the way ahead, and this was exactly what Virugin was hoping for.

The four tanks of the second battalion pose the greatest threat to the militia, and naturally they have become a nail in Virugin's eyes and need to be destroyed as soon as possible, but the four FT-3 tanks are protected in the middle, and if they rashly attack, they are likely to be destroyed by the opponent's infantry and counter-attack, so under his arrangement, many mines were planted on the road, waiting for the commander of the imperial army to send the FT-3 to clear the mines and then destroy them in one fell swoop.

The Edelweiss was hidden at the corner of the road, covered by dense branches and could not see any flaws in the distance, an FT-3 dragged a tree trunk from the corner, there was no infantry cover around it, and Ouyang Yu, who was still the commander, stretched out his tongue and licked his lips and ordered: "The target appears, three hundred meters away, armor-piercing shells are ready." ”

"Bang. ”

"Armor-piercing shells are good!"

The loader of the Edelweiss is still the bitter Alicia.

Verugin still plays the role of gunner, and his sister Isara also sits in the driver's seat, but there is an additional personal guard in the car, Ouyang Yu's personal guard captain Ludendorff, who is responsible for communicating with the militia team to deliver orders and messages.

Verugin slowly adjusted the muzzle of the gun, put the FT-3 that had opened the way into the aiming circle, and shouted, "Aim complete!"

"Fire!"

"Boom......!"

Verugin pressed the trigger button, and an armor-piercing projectile accurately hit the side of the turret above the FT-3 tank three hundred meters away.

"Be ......!"

The shells fired by the Edelweiss are deflected by the circular turret.

"Ricochet, reload armor-piercing again!"

Alicia struggled to pick up an armor-piercing bullet and put it into the gun door, and the FT-3, locked onto Verugin's scope, had spotted the Edelweiss and was turning to prepare for a counterattack.

"Reloaded!"

"Fire!"

"Boom......!"

"We have inflicted heavy losses on the enemy!"

The second armor-piercing projectile hit the FT-3's power wheel on the right side, destroying the power wheel and track, but it still did not destroy the FT-3 tank and allowed it to turn.

"Boom...... Rumble...... Boom......!"

The FT-3 tanks began to counterattack, but in their haste, all three shells were missed, kicking up a cloud of dirt around the Edelweiss.

"Boom......!"

A few seconds later, a third armor-piercing shell was fired, this one between the two turrets in the lower part of the FT-3 tank, successfully penetrating the opponent's armor, and the FT-3 tank quickly burst into flames.

"Destroy the target and move immediately!"

The Edelweiss sped backwards and vanished before the remaining three tanks of the Imperial Army arrived.
