Infantry fights against armored troops, and its disadvantages are self-evident, and it seems that all of them are unmatchable in terms of firepower and mobility!

But what we want to say here is that the power of any branch of the armed forces in a war varies from time to time, from place to place, and from person to person.

The fighting in Donbass has entered its second phase - urban street fighting.

Denikin's armored forces entered the city, and the field battles met with little resistance except for artillery bombardment.

With the exception of a few armored vehicles that were fired from the bottom by shells that served as a simple firing method, there were no excessive losses in the case of armored units.

Accompanied by armored fighting vehicles, the assault guns made a "boom" sound and staggered across the edge of the city. Infantry in armoured vehicles jumped out of armoured vehicles with small arms and launched attacks on nearby buildings.

They knew that they could no longer count on the help of the cavalry, and that they had already retreated under the fire of the anti-aircraft machine guns installed in the city's high-rise buildings.

As for the armored vehicles, it is not known whether they received any serious damage because of the speed or the protection of the armor.

However, when they arrived in the city, they were dumbfounded by the wider streets.

The square vertebrae made of cement, including the steel horse, have become their impassable moats. Behind these blockages are "fast fronts" protected by sandbags and large wooden boxes filled with earth.

If an armored vehicle approached, shells from long-barreled 45-mm anti-tank guns were fired from the well-protected bunkers that cut through the streets.

The infantrymen in charge of clearing the obstacles, under the heavy casualties of the small arms in the tall houses on both sides of the opponent. There is still no way to remove these obstacles, which completely block the road.

In desperation, the armored assault guns and armored vehicles had to turn around and turn to the narrow streets with little more protection.

Groups of infantry jumping out of the armored vehicles followed behind the assault guns and armored vehicles that served as cover, and the infantrymen held guns in their hands and looked at the buildings with trembling eyes.

This is the target they must capture.

The infantrymen, clutching the shafts of Mosin Nagant rifles in their hands or raising their submachine guns, rushed towards the nearby buildings.

Probably due to sandbags on both sides, all the windows in the building were completely blocked. The hall on the first floor still looks so dark on this bright summer morning.

The infantrymen, who almost wanted to squeeze their bodies into the wall, landed gently. The riflemen in charge of the cover struggled to keep their eyes open to the dark, hellish hall.

"Tutu...... Sudden ......"

Suddenly, bright flames erupted from the darkness of the hall on the ground floor. The distinctive sound of the "L-Wolf" general-purpose machine gun lit up in the dark halls.

The infantry who had just entered the hall was in the midst of a storm of bullets. It's like a drunken person. The crooked footsteps were mixed with the fire of the machine gun, and one by one the swaying bodies bent down and fled desperately to the outside of the building.

With the firing of the firepower point at the bottom of the building, based on the bunkers of the "fast front", the entire battlefield seemed to become the hell of Shura.

The infantry who fled outside the building realized that they had only escaped from hell to a Shura world.

On the buildings on both sides, the sound of three bursts of rifle fire and the dull sound of sniper rifles sounded. Denikin's infantry on the ground was caught in the crossfire of houses on both sides of the street.

In this case, strings of grenades were dropped from some of the windows upstairs, and the smoke and shrapnel from the explosion covered the narrow streets.

The man who was shot fell to the ground and curled up in a terrible groan, and some of the stubborn soldiers hid behind the obstacles on the side, using small arms in their hands to engage the soldiers of the "Thunder International" on the buildings next to the road.

"Into the armored car...... Fast forward to armored vehicles ......! ”

Amid the shouts, the surviving infantrymen found their lovely steel fortress unscathed by the blows of these small arms.

Despite the fact that they flickered with sporadic fire, there was a "clanging" sound on the armor. But those small arms do not seem to be able to easily penetrate the armor of these armored vehicles.

The soldiers who were lucky enough not to die, one by one, shrunk their necks, rushed into this time to feel the heat, and the noise was simply everywhere. Now it's lovely, protected by steel.

As some lucky Russian soldiers escaped into the armored vehicle, tongues of fire erupted from the firing holes on both sides of the armored vehicle. That is, there is a continuous fire of a submachine gun, and there is also a shot from a rifle.

War, in any war in this world, there is absolutely no "zero casualty" war. Especially in the face of these Russian tough soldiers who "need two bullets to kill them, and they have to push again", "zero casualties" is a complete dream.

The German-made "assault gun" with a 37-mm cannon took advantage of the differential movement of the tracks on both sides and slowly turned the body. Although there is no rotating turret, this also makes this assault gun easy to make, and the armor can also be slightly thicker.

Of course, a fixed turret has one kind of constraint or another. However, the assault gun is still a piece of equipment worth studying and exploring to this day.

Its representative is the Swedish tank, which is still internationally famous today, and it has the lowest roof height of all active tanks in the world.

In the lobby on the first floor of the buildings on both sides, it is the "fast front" bunker that is assembled from reinforced concrete components and protected by sandbags.

The machine gunner who was firing saw the low body of the German assault gun in the orange flames that flashed from the muzzle, and the muzzle of the rotating gun looked terrifying.

"Enemy artillery fire ......!"

Amid the shouts, the machine-gun shooter turned around and threw himself into the ground with the shooter.

"Boom ......"

The armor-piercing ability of the 37-mm gun is not strong, especially when it comes to the "fast front" of the "soft, hard and soft" form of pillboxes, which does not have much effect.

However, the close-range explosion of the shells still tore through the sandbags on the outside of the pillbox. The straightened dust made it almost impossible for the machine guns and shooters lying in the ground to breathe.

"Boom ......"

A continuous roar of shelling sounded on the ground floor of the building, and although these 37-mm guns were not able to destroy the pillboxes of the "fast front", they were completely able to suppress the fire of the "L-wolf" general-purpose machine guns.

Despite this, Denikin's armored forces found that they still had no way to fight without armored vehicles. Although the assault gun can suppress the enemy's light fire at the bottom of the floor, the snipers and riflemen on the upper floors are still secret.

It was only then that the soldiers, who had thought they could take down the entire city in one fell swoop, understood what kind of hard-fought battle they were fighting face to face.

The armored forces entering the city had to rely entirely on their own firepower, and when they were completely mixed with the enemy in the narrow streets, artillery support was already impossible.

Not to mention the 75mm self-propelled guns they used to support the battle, which were completely defeated by the 122 and 105 mm heavy guns.

"Already breaking into the city? Very good! Order the cavalry to attack quickly, fully support the armored forces in battle, and as for the streets that have not been captured, you can bypass them, or control them with fire! As soon as our army enters the city, we will soon be able to divide and surround them, and encircle and annihilate them separately! ”

When this sentence is uttered in the barracks or staff of the headquarters, it is always not difficult. However, on the front line, with soldiers crawling in the midst of a hail of bullets, this is extremely difficult.

Under the supervision of the officers, the armored units that had been unable to attack for a long time had to abandon the pillboxes of the "fast front" hidden in the buildings. Supported by armored vehicles, they quickly advanced deep into the city along the narrow streets.

Zhang Zizhong's regimental command post was in a building with windows completely blocked, and as one of the two main regiments of the light brigade, his unit was responsible for defending a considerable area.

Ever since the battle began, he had been looking out of the window at the observation hole he had left behind.

"Sir, the enemy's armored forces have been hooked!"

Hearing the report of the chief of staff, the heart that he had been hanging on finally fell.

"As long as we eat most of their armored forces, then no matter how many Denikin people he has, there is nothing he can do with us."

That's the tactical arrangement in this battle.

At the moment, the infantry on the front line was distributed on both sides of the street in buildings reinforced with rapid fronts, sandbags, and scaffolding. The order given to them was to hold the firing point and not to attack without permission until the order was given.

This gave Denikin the illusion that the lightly armed brigade of the "Thunder International" was only relying on strong buildings and pillboxes to defend it, and in fact the active offensive was about to be launched later.

Denikin's armored forces attacked relatively smoothly, but the cavalry and infantry that followed them suffered heavy casualties under the artillery fire of the "Thunder International". There was no way to break into the city and support the armored forces.

When night fell on this battle, "Thunder International" launched a counteroffensive.

Groups of soldiers, through the ropes or ladders between the buildings, quickly attacked the tail of the armored unit that had broken through in several ways.

Glass bottles filled with gasoline fell from the sky, and gasoline or other oil liquid seeped through all the cracks of the armored vehicle amid the frightened "pop" of the occupants of the car.

"Get out of here, get out of here......"

The people in the armored car, who understood it, tried to escape through the hatches to escape from the "steel fortress" that had protected them for a day. However, it was already too late.

With the sound of firing, the gun with a feathered flame fired a grenade in front of him.

At this time, if you look down from the city sky, you will find that the armored cluster trapped in the narrow street like a long snake has been "pinched off and removed", and there is no way to return to Denikin's side!
