Chapter 351: Encounter

Yang Mingzhi could have foreseen that the Germans would strengthen the defenses of the long road from Mozili to Gomel, but the Germans were also equipped with tanks and armored vehicles, which was really unexpected. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The new tanks and assault guns are tasked with supporting the infantry at all times.

"It's not very peaceful around this stretch of road, and you must be able to get to the battlefield when you receive the order." Scholz ordered his newly arrived subordinates. Therefore, many patrols heard faint gunfire and saw the raised signal flares, which was an early warning of the enemy situation, and soon the headquarters of the 715th Division knew the enemy situation.

Schultz was so happy that he smiled as he looked around the map.

"It seems that our warning measures have borne fruit, and the enemy has really fallen into the trap."

Swagger was still cautious, pointing to the map and saying, "The warning is from the 11th Search Team, and the squad leader is Schumacher. I fear that his search party may have all been killed. ā€

"Even then, they were heroes of the Third Reich! The sacrifice is worth it! Now it's our turn to fight back! ā€

Schultz immediately ordered the fort to strengthen its defenses, and ordered five tanks and a battalion to assemble on the road directly in front of the accident site. Two more battalions of troops, which were massed from both flanks towards the place where the flares were raised.

Scholz had his wishful thinking: "At the moment we have dispatched three battalions to flank the enemy in three directions. No matter how many of them there were, they didn't want to run away this time! ā€

This is purely a knife for killing chickens, and Swagger is not against this. Because, during this time, the 715th Division was harassed many times, they came from the north, and their behavior was simply robbery. The soldiers did not get tired of it, and they had already come up with a bad breath!

……

Balzen correctly ordered everyone to run softly and left the place where the battle had taken place early.

He just wanted to cross the road earlier, but he didn't know that directly in front of him, the German "rapid reaction force" was moving beyond everyone's imagination.

A total of five tanks and six tri-sturgeons, as well as ten half-track armored vehicles, ran wildly on the road. A battalion of German troops, many of whom simply sat on tanks, received orders to arrive at the intended destination as soon as possible, and it no longer mattered whether they were comfortable or not. Therefore, these armored units, including even some jeeps, each of them was filled with people as well as their equipment.

It has to be said that such a means of transporting troops is really efficient.

But the roar of the armored vehicle was loud, and this strange noise was finally noticed by the spearhead sent by Balzen.

The situation became complicated, and Balzen decisively ordered the troops to stop advancing, and the fighters immediately crouched down on the spot, all kinds of weapons in their hands.

"Hell, this group of enemies has become different! And there are tanks?! Balzen yelled. He opened the map, and with his current location, he would soon be on the road. The spearhead returned with information indicating that the Germans were massing on the road.

"They have about four or five hundred troops, but because they are equipped with tanks, their follow-up troops may be more? Those Germans got off the tanks, and they are still in formation, and they haven't found us yet! ā€

The information provided by the spearhead soldiers is very clear, the enemy has a lot of troops to dispatch this time, could it be that they have expected all this?

Balzen shook his teeth, and this intelligence pointed out that the enemy was still in the stage of gaining a foothold. In the dignified formation, they have absolutely no chance, and they have a huge advantage in terms of strength and equipment.

Balzen turned his head and saw that the warriors were fearless. He asked, "Comrades, if there is an enemy in front of us, we can take a detour or beat them up before leaving." Are you fighting or withdrawing? ā€

"Hit!" Many warriors said in unison.

To be honest, if you withdraw without letting go of a fart, that's really not Balzen's character. Besides, their troops are obviously exposed, the enemy appears in front of them, and now a flaw is clearly displayed, and when they have put their men and horses in order, they can't be caught off guard.

Seeing that everyone's will to fight was high, Balzen immediately ordered the whole army to advance in battle formation.

The warriors were still pulling their sleds, and the supplies on them were not yet ready to be abandoned. There is no recoil, but all the guns are taken from the sleigh, carried by the soldiers, and can be quickly assembled at any time.

Murderous opportunities lurk in the forest, and what about the Germans? One battalion of fighters sat on a tank, and the bumps in the road made their bones crisp, and some of them couldn't stand the bumps and simply went to the side of the road to vomit.

The battalion commander consciously arrived at the destination early, and seeing the embarrassment of his people, he had to allow them to rest for a while.

Just as these soldiers were adjusting their physical condition and preparing for a new battle, the Soviets had already quietly pointed their guns at them.

Natasha and the rest of the army made their way to the edge of the forest, her guns aimed at an enemy. At this point, Balzen also saw the whole picture of the German army thoroughly, and their tanks and assault guns were really scary!

Others, Balzen gave RPG shooters of various platoons to attack the enemy's armored vehicles as the main target, especially shooting at their weak side armor. The same order applies to the recoilless gun group, two such guns, the projectile has been loaded, just waiting for the order.

The guys of the reconnaissance company were ready for battle, and Balzen wiped his snot and gave the order to attack!

All of a sudden, there was a lot of gunfire in the forest. Three rocket-booster grenades, with their characteristic white smoke, flew out towards enemy tanks. And the projectile of the recoilless gun was the first to strike.

The shell hit the side armor of one of the No. 3 tanks, and the explosion directly broke its tracks. The other, which was worse, hit the frontal armor of the No. 3 assault gun, and its inclined main armor spread out the shells.

But almost in the blink of an eye, the RPG attack arrived. The saturation blow directly hit two tanks, three projectiles filled with picric acid, and their huge explosion acted on the side armor, causing the destruction of the tank's internal ammunition in addition to the hole. At this time, the turrets of the two tanks that hit were directly fried.

In a single attack, the German unit lost three tanks, and the soldiers resting nearby sat stupidly chatting with each other, and they were hit by a double blow of shock waves and flying debris, and immediately lay down.

Balzen smiled at the corners of his mouth, and he asked his subordinates to continue loading, because there was no chance to be lost! With his continued efforts, he even believed that he was enough to cripple the enemy.

The recoilless cannon is reloaded, and the rocket-booster grenade is loaded into the launcher. Twenty seconds after the first attack, the second attack came again.

In just twenty seconds, only a handful of German soldiers reacted. Rather, it was the remaining assault guns and tank three, whose shells were always in the chamber. At the comrades of the Soviet artillery fire, the Germans also launched a counterattack.

German artillery fire fell towards the place where the smoke appeared, a series of explosions, and Soviet casualties occurred.

The blown dirt smashed into Natasha's face, but the girl was still calm, and the sniper rifle's bipod was stretched out, and the shooting was unusually stable. Natasha calmly called the Germans one by one, they could hide, but even if they fired blindly, their exposed arms would still be broken by precise bullets.

In the second round of Soviet attack, a half-track armored vehicle was caught in flames, and the burning people came out of it and screamed. The turret of a tank was hit, and its long barrel was blown off.

However, a third round of attacks is no longer possible. Balzen felt the enormous pressure of German fire. This group of enemies was no more than ever, and the tank attack just now, their own side lost at least ten people. Thanks to the fact that they did not know their exact location, the artillery fire was also blind, and even then, judging by the large number of trees that were blown off, the German fire was very terrifying.

No, those half-track armored vehicles, with their machine gun towers bursting with tongues of fire, and green light bombs create the feeling of a seamless network of fire. Their infantry also began to move, completely oblivious to the wounded comrades lying on the ground, wailing, and dead.

Seeing that the assault could not continue, Balzen simply did not have the capital to fight them. He immediately ordered: "Everyone pull the sleigh and withdraw quickly, and if you can carry the supplies on your back, the sleigh will be abandoned on the spot." The second row left behind the break! ā€

With that, he pulled Natasha up and withdrew, and the girl screamed, "You go first!" I'll cover! ā€

Balzen was not ambiguous at this juncture, he did not give Natasha any chance, and demanded that the guards take her away even if they were tied with ropes.

In this way, the mortars in the unit cooperated with the second platoon to make the final cover, and the battle had to finish 30% of the ammunition. The Soviets were small in number, but they were not weak in firepower. The German soldiers rushed into the forest, where they were attacked by artillery fire and found shelter.

With the German counterattack thwarted, Balzen finally seized the opportunity and had to abandon the bodies of his dead comrades. The one hundred and twenty people who were still alive retreated, and in the forest, they headed in a northeast direction. (To be continued.) )
