Chapter 1332 Ice Storm (1)

Of course, the German troops on the battlefield don't know what kind of situation they are in now, what kind of danger is approaching them step by step, and they don't know what their opponents are doing now.

The heavy King Tiger and the assault guns tasked with suppressing fire were entrenched together and still firing wildly, taking the advantages of the German main gun's effective range and accuracy to the extreme.

The Panthers, who were the spearhead of the attack, led the infantry and half-track vehicles forward, and were in the limelight with the direct support of King Tiger's heavy firepower!

Until now, the German army still has not given up on its tactical goals and believes that it has great advantages. With the advantages in technical equipment and military strength, we can definitely quickly deal with the small Soviet medium tank units blocking the road in front of us.

Lavrinenko told Malashenko that he would persist to the end, and in fact Lavrinenko did exactly that. But the dangerous situation he is facing now has indeed given Lavrinenko a feeling of helplessness.

The main force in the middle, led by Lavrinenko, has indeed connected with Alexi's reconnaissance force, and the two forces are now united.

But the problem that followed immediately was that the enemy's German offensive was quite fierce, and it had formed a vicious and persistent posture.

Of course, the Central German Army responsible for the main attack knew that their opponents wanted to run away, but the ultimate purpose of this entire troop dispatch was to completely annihilate this group of Soviet troops who were facing the enemy. After spending so much effort, putting up such a big posture, and holding an absolute advantage in strength, if the enemy still escapes, wouldn't it mean that there is no place to lose face?

One wants to get out of the battle as soon as possible, shrink the defense, and gather the limited strength together to continue fighting. The other wants to cling to the current situation and not talk about it, for fear that the duck will fly away.

Lavrinenko initially tried to command his troops to fight and retreat, but it didn't take long to discover that this simply didn't work.

In order to prevent the opponent from escaping, the German army who faced the enemy was like a mad dog, unleashing all its high-speed medium tank troops and rushing forward in a desperate attack.

The enemy's coordinated infantry and tank offensives were getting higher and higher. Lavrinenko couldn't get away, so he could only put all the troops on hand to block the enemy's attack.

Being unable to escape or evacuate, to be honest, it would not lead to death on the spot. As long as you can barely hold on, there is still a glimmer of hope.

But if the Germans tear open the defense line and break in, then Lavrinenko is sure that all the people around him and the troops at hand will not be able to escape!

Since we can't retreat, it's better to hold on to the end. A glimmer of hope is worse than being completely black with no hope at all. At this moment, Lavrinenko's idea is that simple.

"Hold the line, comrades! You must hold it! Comrade division commander and the main force are very close, they will be there soon! Victory will eventually belong to the Red Army!"

Lavrinenko, who was holding a radio transmitter in his hand, was cheering everyone on. The passionate slogans turned into radio waves and spread to every tank and every corner of the vehicle. The already determined soldiers were now At this moment, no one complained.

The Germans, who wanted a quick victory, put in more powerful force. One after another, the Panthers covered the infantry behind them and rushed towards the position.

The impoverished No. 4 was even reduced to a foil that was not noticed at this moment. After several battles, the German army also clearly knew that the enemy in front of them was not that easy to deal with. Using No. 4 as the spearhead of the attack would only increase casualties, so all the Black Panthers were gathered together and formed into a powerful high-speed assault force that rushed forward.

The King Tiger holding the line at the rear was using the long range and high accuracy of the powerful main gun to fire desperately. The accurate armor-piercing bullets, like eyes with eyes, roared sharply in the wind, and amidst the strong ammunition explosions and waves of fire, they destroyed a vehicle. Medium tanks one after another flew into the sky.

The longer the battle went on, the more Lavrinenko, who had been fighting at his position as commander, could personally experience the power of the ferocious and huge German heavy tank.

From the beginning to now, except for the occasional missed shot, every armor-piercing bullet from those terrifying monsters can blast a Red Army medium tank into the sky.

Every armor-piercing bullet based on the premise of hitting will cause a terrible fatal effect. Whether it is the T3485 or the latest T43 medium tank, the front of the vehicle body or the turret armor, none of them can withstand the attacks from those ferocious monsters. A fatal blow.

Once the armor is accurately hit and no large-angle ricochet occurs, being penetrated on the spot and a strong ammunition explosion are the only inevitable results.

It is true that not all medium tanks that have been penetrated will explode, but Lavrinenko has not seen any surviving crew members crawl out alive from those medium tanks that have penetrated the armor and save their lives. .

It is not entirely true to say that all the crew members died, but it at least shows that those armor-piercing bullets actually penetrated into the vehicle, fired the projectile warhead charges, and produced after-effects.

In this case, even if someone is still alive, he is probably seriously injured. It is foreseeable that blood will flow from missing arms and legs. Such powerful armor-piercing power is what surprises Lavrinenko the most.

"Comrade Commander! Those German heavy tanks are too much of a threat. Do we have to deal with them!?"

The high-pitched question from the gunner brought Lavrinenko's thoughts back to reality. Lavrinenko, who briefly thought about the next step in his mind, raised his head and glanced at those vehicles again through the commander's periscope in front of him. With the German heavy tank at least 800 meters away, it was really difficult to make up his mind immediately and hesitate to issue an order.

"Have you seen this installation list? The Tiger II heavy tank mentioned above is what I call the Tiger King. This kind of thing is very difficult to deal with. If you encounter it on the battlefield, you must add more careful!"

"This kind of broken vehicle has a very powerful main gun and almost indestructible frontal protective armor. If you don't get close to within three hundred meters, Lavry, don't make any unnecessary attempts. Like all German tanks, The weak point of this thing is its vertical armor part, but it is only on the front of the turret. It is very small, difficult to aim, and there is a pig-nosed gun shield that gets in the way.”

"Oh, or there is another situation. The turret looks more like our T34. It is a different turret configuration, with a semi-curved turret front edge shape. In short, the weaknesses of these two vehicles are the left and right faces of the turret front. The above part, you will know what my description means when you actually see it, remember what I said to you.”

"Don't ask me how I know this. Anyway, I know. The reason is not important! Only the result is the most important! You are my brother and one of the people I trust most, so I will tell you these words. You There is no need to repeat the cause and effect to others, it is just necessary to convey what to do, it is that simple.”
