The German army had just added soldiers to the attacked position, and Niklaus led about 500 troops to reinforce the front-line position.
The fallen soldiers were rushed away, and most of the dead people saw were shot in the head.
After arriving, Niklaus immediately checked the situation and realized: "These are snipers, they can only hide in the forest." So he ordered the soldiers to continue to operate the machine guns and fire retaliation into the forest. At the same time, he also ordered the tanks to be ready.
Support at any time.
The tank crew hid on the outskirts of another forest to rest. Due to the terrain, the scouts did not see that the enemy had any secret weapons.
The general offensive began, and while the Germans were still firing, machine gun fire and flares completely exposed their position.
A green signal flare suddenly soared into the sky, and the German soldiers saw this abrupt mountain pass. Then, a large amount of smoke suddenly burst out from the forest, followed by a series of muffled sounds.
Artillery shells flew in a very low and flat parabola. They were all loaded with picric acid warheads. Violent explosions broke out in various machine gun bunkers. The shells were all accurate, and even crazier, in just five seconds, the second
Another round of shelling came. This time it was ordinary artillery shells. The two rounds of attacks immediately caused huge damage to the German army.
The explosion site was a mess, with soil and machine guns overturned, injured people wailing, and the mutilated limbs of the dead scattered near the foxholes.
This attack completely surprised the ordinary soldiers. Didn't they agree that the enemy was just light infantry? Why were there guns? They clenched their weapons tightly and endured the yellow gas caused by the explosion of floating picric acid.
Nicklaus was overturned by the blast wave. He was not injured at all, but his whole body was covered in mud.
"Those who are not dead, prepare for defense! They are about to attack!" Niklaus straightened his hat and ordered the soldiers to stabilize.
This is common sense. The Soviet army's tactics are generally that after the artillery bombards the infantry, it seems that traditional positional warfare is about to begin.
After the bombardment, the recoilless guns quickly changed positions, and Yang Mingzhi also ordered the infantry to attack.
Suddenly, the forest was filled with the sound of urrahs, and the Red Army soldiers with bayonets were lightly armed and marched forward fearlessly.
Several enemy machine gun positions were lost, and for a time only ordinary soldiers holding bolt-action rifles stood up to block the attack. Fortunately, the German army retained one general-purpose machine gun for each squad, and these machine gunners quickly joined the blockade.
The Soviet army ran very fast, covering 400 meters in as little as one minute. They shot while running, and the recoilless guns behind them quickly changed positions, and a new round of shelling began again.
They are not afraid of hitting their own people. If they are afraid of death, they will not be soldiers! The shells are on the heads of the soldiers.
Yang Mingzhi held up his binoculars to observe the entire action. He saw many soldiers being hit and fell to the ground. He felt sad every time one fell.
He immediately ordered: "Natasha! Besica! Aim at the enemy's firepower point and fire freely! Kill the machine gunner and open a passage for me!"
The two girls understood by heart that they were the most stable snipers! The focus was readjusted and the muzzle of the gun was moved to the direction of the wind. According to Yang Mingzhi's order, the two of them had to clear a gap.
At this moment, Yang Mingzhi no longer had time to pay attention to the damage caused by the noise of firing and the recoil. Every time Yang Tao shot, her whole body would shake violently. But she still spread her legs, trying to offset the recoil, and still fired with high efficiency.
In this way, even if the enemy lay on the ground and fired wildly, a few machine gunners had already killed some attacking soldiers. They did not succeed for long before they were shot in the head by precise bullets.
On the offensive front of Lavrenti and Yevgeny, a passage is being opened.
Niklaus ordered the field artillery and tanks on standby to begin to show their strength. These armored vehicles left the resting camp and rushed towards the infantry positions with the unique creaking sound of their tracks.
The German artillery fire began to show off. They were bombarding the attacking infantry, but the interval between each shot was relatively long. The Soviet vanguard suffered a lot of losses and successfully broke through the defense line.
The submachine gunners fired wildly, and a small breakthrough point quickly expanded. Then came the second and third breakthrough point!
Yang Mingzhi let out a long sigh of satisfaction: "That's great. We didn't lose much. We passed the enemy's position."
He happily patted the backs of the two girls and praised: "You guys fought very well. You killed dozens of key enemies this time. I'll record the credit for you when I get back!"
The supporting fire from the forest gradually died down. Yang Mingzhi knew that all that was left was to look at Lavrenti and Yevgeny. Their two main regiments continued to expand their results. After the flanking offensive troops began to attack, maybe the German army
will be completely annihilated.
Yang Mingzhi’s ambitions were very great, but what happened next was unexpected!
The German soldiers were completely unprepared for hand-to-hand combat, and the Soviet bayonets rushed forward. Without their machine guns, the battle was about to turn into a massacre. Because of their strength, firepower, and morale, the Germans were once at a disadvantage.
Seeing that something was going wrong, the enemies were coming like a flood. When the submachine gunners saw the people wearing M35 helmets, they fired wildly without any reason. The Germans were completely unable to stop these people, so Nicklaus ordered to retreat!
Seeing that the headquarters had withdrawn, others also ran away.
Nicklaus was not escaping. He warned those around him: "We will retreat to the original camp. As long as we fight with the tank troops, we can suppress them."
No, iron boxes suddenly appeared in the wilderness, and Lavrenti and Yevgeny also stopped.
Especially Lavrenti, because his action at night was thwarted, he rushed forward for revenge this time, so they also experienced the power of the German tanks. The tank gun was not very powerful, but the tank's huge body was frightening.
Accompanying the tank attack were assault guns and half-track armored vehicles. There were as many as thirty of them in total, each with a certain distance between them. The darkness reminded people of the most terrifying things.
Yang Mingzhi was surprised and excited about this. "This reminds me of what happened in June last year! You Germans, don't you know who destroyed the 7th Armored Division?"
Lavrenti ordered the soldiers to steady their steps, and a dozen RPG groups among them immediately began to counterattack.
Suddenly, white smoke rose from the flat ground, and rocket-propelled grenades flew out at a high speed of 300 meters per second. They rotated in the air and hit the target accurately.
Originally, the German army had followed the tanks and started to use infantry-tank coordination. In theory, a single charge could drive the enemy back. But who would have thought that the Soviet army also had some secret weapons?
Fifteen RPG rounds were fired almost at the same time, and seven armored targets were hit. Except for one assault gun whose armor tilted and deflected the warhead, causing it to hit the infantry and cause casualties, the other six were destroyed! (To be continued.)
