Chapter 235: Never Back Down

In the east, the defense of the Butter detachment was at a fever pitch from the start, and the commander of the detachment did not let the Tao missiles fire first, but waited until the attacking column of the Cuban tanks entered the street before allowing the Tao missiles to fire at the target at a distance of less than 300 meters.

This blow made the Cuban tank directly incarnate into a manned spaceflight, the jet penetrated the hull, directly took away all the people in the car, and also ignited the fuel tank and ammunition rack, the violent explosion directly separated the tank and the turret, and the force of the explosion threw the turret several meters away.

In contrast to the spacious terrain on the south side, the Cuban armored forces chose a narrow road 600 meters long from the east, which was a residential area for local residents, and the second floors of the buildings on both sides of the road also had clothes hanging outside to dry.

The focus of the Butter detachment was not on the buildings on the side of the street, but on the fragile houses that were the focus of the Cuban tanks, and after the first vehicles were destroyed, they switched formations and began to ram the houses with their tanks with impunity, turning them into rubble and running over them.

Therefore, the focus of the Butter detachment was on the courtyard and the roadway, they planted explosives at the roadway, placed mortars in the farther courtyard, and then ambushed bazookas and recoilless guns in the courtyard near the street, waited for the Cuban tanks to destroy the building, and then attacked the tanks with bazookas and recoilless guns when they were blinded by dust.

Relying on this tactic, the Cuban armored troops only penetrated less than a hundred meters into the town before destroying a tank and injuring a tank, especially when the damaged Cuban tank had to stop advancing because of a fire, a brave P rushed straight up, and when the Cuban armored troops opened the hatch, this guy directly poked the RPD machine gun in his hand into the hatch and fired the entire bullet chain indiscriminately, and then he was satisfied with dropping a grenade and leaving.

Despite the initial victory, the situation on the defending side did not improve, and the Cuban armored forces, after suffering losses, also adjusted their tactics very quickly, from a I-line advance to a one-line advance, and the firing regulations were also prohibited from firing at random to any suspicious target. Z.br>

As a result, the defensive tactics of the butter detachment were restrained by the Cuban troops, and the shooters waited for the Cuban tanks to appear before they opened fire, but the Cuban tanks did not need this at all, they adjusted the fuse of the shells, so that they could explode after penetrating the wall, and then began to attack the walls that could be unscrupulous, if there was an ambush behind the wall, the shells that penetrated the wall would cause heavy casualties to the ambushers, and if there was no one behind the wall, then they switched to the next target and continued to fire.

This way caught the butter detachment off guard, and the shooters could only start to move to find the target to shoot, but it was difficult for the bazookas in their hands to directly inflict fatal damage on the hurried, and less than an hour after the battle, except for the losses suffered by the Cuban tanks at the beginning of the battle, after which they only paid the price of four tanks being damaged to eliminate more than 20 P's and nearly 100 SLL infantry.

The southeastern perimeter of the town of Cado also fell under the control of the Cuban tanks, and the motorized infantry company and reconnaissance company that followed the tank regiment began to enter the city to sweep away the remnants of the enemy.

The best weapon against tanks is always tanks, and the fight between infantry and tanks is equivalent to a three-year-old boy boxing with a fighting champion, and without a deadly anti-tank weapon, there is really only a limit to what infantry can do.

The Butter Detachment and the Duff Detachment were forced to start a constant retreat, which made Hannibal feel a great pressure, and at this moment they could effectively delay the attack of the Cuban tanks, the only means left were a few anti-tank mines, but the hits of these mines were purely face-to-face, and after hitting the Cuban tanks, they were more likely to destroy the tracks than attack the hulls.

This forced Hannibal to send Edward and Charlie's detachments into battle, but the situation of these two detachments was not much better, although at a distance of several hundred meters, the armor-piercing shells fired by the 90mm French guns of the A90 armored vehicles that were engaged in the battle were effective in threatening Cuban tanks, but the latter's fragile armor could also be effectively penetrated by Cuban tanks.

Coupled with the fact that the number was less than a fraction of the number of Cuban tanks, there were more than thirty exchanges of fire between the two sides, but the final result was 0 to zero, whether it was the Cuban gunners or the gunners of the Shadow Company, for

To protect themselves as much as possible, they generally use a one-hit detachment tactic, where both sides fire first when they see a figure, and after the fight, they don't look at the results of the battle, and run away directly.

As for the Sherman tanks that Shepard had gotten, these World War II antiques were not worthy of the battle at all, and the 75mm guns could threaten the rear hull of the T55 tank, and Hannibal left these tanks on the west side of the town, ready to be used as a fixed battery for evacuation.

Hannibal has decided to dispose of all this backward scrap metal and exchange it for more missiles for his own people, provided that they can return alive.

But in any case, the fall of Cardo seems to be only a matter of time, the Cuban tank force has controlled one-seventh of the town, and is still continuing to expand, the opponent's armored commander is like the boss in the game, sending his troops into the city in a steady stream, a little bit of pressure on the opponent, at the moment in the town raging Cuban tanks have as many as 30 units, and those injured tanks are also being repaired at the same time, skilled engineers directly began to weld on the spot.

But even so, Hannibal still did not give up, this is no longer about winning or losing, but blocking the dignity and honor of soldiers.

"Distribute all the bazookas, I don't care what method you use, you have to block them for me in the trade zone, even if I let those SLL soldiers be ***, it doesn't matter, I don't want any casualty figures, I just want the trade zone!"

Under Hannibal's orders, the retreating front-line troops finally found the backbone and thought of a temporary contingency, they used the few remaining explosives to simply blast all the roads close to the trade zone from the southeast side, and then waited for the Cuban tanks to try to cross the ruins, and then repeatedly attacked the vehicle tracks with heavy firepower, relying on this method, Hannibal successfully blocked the Cuban tanks at the defense node of the trade zone south of the town.

And the latter, understanding that the terrain was unfavorable to them, immediately stopped the offensive and began to readjust, and until then, the rest of the work was left to the artillery!
