Arc of Gunfire

Chapter 132: No Matter the Wind

Wang Zhong had no time to worry about other tanks. Thinking about the fact that these tanks were all in the bunker, as long as the 500 kilogram bomb was not just thrown into the bunker, it should not be able to cause much damage to the tanks.

Now the smoke completely covers the position, and 500 kilograms can be thrown into the bunker accurately. This is the real version of "Death is Coming". If you can't save it, just accept your fate.

Wang Zhong urged the driver: "Belyakov, hurry! We will be safe if we leave the bombing zone."

The Stuka in the air aimed at the dyed smoke from enemy tanks.

The engine of No. 422 roared, and it rushed out of the smoke and rushed into the bushes on the other side of the main road - this was originally a fake position composed of fake tanks and fake anti-tank guns.

The T34 with radio and several more alert T34 followed No. 422, all hiding in the false position.

Then a sharp scream of death came from the sky.

The explosion came very quickly, and the 500-kilogram bomb was so loud that even Wang Zhong, who had already hid aside, subconsciously shrank into the tank so that the open hatch could block most of his body.

The plume of smoke generated by the explosion looked like giant cabbage, and the ambush position directly turned into a giant's vegetable garden.

The sound of gunfire from the ambush position was almost entirely lost, but this may have been because the smoke released by the infantry obscured the tanks' view.

Although Wang Zhong knew that none of the tanks left behind had radios, he still asked on the radio: "Is everyone okay?"

"The platoon leader - the platoon leader's car is fine. By the way, other cars in our platoon have also followed, so our platoon is fine."

"The second row of cars is fine."

"Third platoon leader..."

While the radio was reporting safety, a T34 drove over from the ambush position. The commander showed his head on the turret, looking shocked, and shouted from a distance: "Is this a Stuka? It's terrible." "

Then one after another tanks drove out of the ambush position, and someone brought very bad news: "No. 448 was blown over by a bomb. When I passed by, I didn't see any tank crew alive."

Just as Wang Zhong was about to respond, he heard someone reporting in the earphone: "Division Commander! The enemy tanks are attacking!"

————

Stauhofens, commander of the 2nd Armored Battalion, observed the effects of the bombing.

He used the radio to ask the deputy battalion commander: "What do you think of the enemy's current situation? I think we can attack in a wave. Insert into the enemy's rear from the side, just in time the smoke they release to interfere with the Stuka can cover us."

Deputy Battalion Commander: "I think there is no problem. Shall we discuss it with the 3rd Armored Battalion? Let them move to the right and occupy the covering position."

"Then let the armored grenadiers rush up and hold off the enemy's infantry. I think this plan is feasible."

After that, Stauhofens adjusted the radio to the frequency used to communicate with his superiors: "The lynx calls for the wolf, the lynx calls for the wolf."

————

"The commander of the 2nd Armored Battalion has judged that an attack can be launched based on the on-site conditions." The communications soldier in charge of the walkie-talkie turned back and reported to the acting division commander Kruse.

"Okay. Let him give it a try and retreat if he finds he is a tough guy. Let the 3rd Armored Battalion and the Panzergrenadier Battalion cooperate with him."

As a staff officer, Kruse knew his own trade. Since the front-line officer judged that he could give it a try, he would give it a try.

However, he also had to show his role, so he added: "If the attack is blocked, remember to fake defeat and lure the enemy into the firing range of the 88-gun."

————

Although Wang Zhong was not the first to discover the enemy's attack, he was the first to grasp the overall situation by relying on the plug-in.

The enemy was divided into two tank groups. The first group looked like it was going to break directly into the flank of the ambush position and occupy the flanking position.

The second group made a larger circle, apparently preparing to occupy the far-end shooting position and cover the first group.

In addition, the enemy's armored grenadier broke away from the tank troops and began to advance, making it clear that they planned to take advantage of the smoke-obscured ambush position to launch a wave of pigs, and go up to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the 1st Battalion of the 31st Regiment in the trench.

After grasping the situation, Wang Zhong immediately said to the messenger who followed the tank to withdraw: "Go and notify the 1st Battalion to withdraw from the position! The enemy is about to come up for hand-to-hand combat. Let them go to the backup position."

In the past ten days, the 151st Provisional Infantry Division and the labor battalion of Orachi dug a large number of preset positions and repeatedly practiced moving between positions.

Wang Zhong would not let his troops, which are mainly new recruits, mingle with the enemy.

As for the enemy tanks that have bypassed them, although the position occupied by Wang Zhong and the others does not have tank bunkers, there are many trees and various obstructions left by the construction of false positions. It is still their advantage to shoot at the enemy here.

What's more, the T34 already has an advantage in the confrontation with armored rounds. As long as the tracks are protected from being broken, it will be difficult for the enemy to take advantage. With so many obstructions, it is also difficult for the enemy to accurately hit the "neck" of the T34.

This is a bit like using camouflage grass to block the tank's weak points in War Thunder, making it difficult for the opponent to aim.

At this time, three more T34s left the ambush position and came to join Wang Zhong and the others.

So far, the number of tanks that have escaped has reached 21, and the remaining nine tanks have been determined to be dead. The other conditions are unknown.

"Get into formation quickly! Find your platoon command vehicle!" Wang Zhong shouted while gesturing to the three newly running tanks.

The commander of the leading vehicle nodded. He didn't know whether he really understood or just nodded casually to deal with it. Anyway, he directed the tank to turn in front of No. 422 and drive along the current formation of the tank group.

The other two tanks also followed this one and drove past No. 422 one by one. The tank commanders all saluted Wang Zhong with their attention.

Wang Zhong: "Stop paying attention to me! Get into formation quickly, the enemy is coming!"

I can't stand it anymore, and I will make seizing the radio the first priority in the future.

At this time, Wang Zhong saw from an overhead perspective that the infantry retreated toward the preset position along the communication trench. At this time, the enemy's infantry was still about two hundred meters away from the trench of the ambush position.

Very good, the effect of repeated practice changes has come out.

Since the enemy is about to enter the position——

Wang Zhong adjusted the frequency of the radio to the frequency commonly used by the Prosen people.

The Prosens will monitor this frequency - if the monitoring is wrong, they are communicating on this frequency, so of course they should pay attention at all times.

There is another person who is monitoring this frequency at all times, and that is Vasily, who is guarding the captured walkie-talkie.

Wang Zhong: "The long sob of the violin in autumn, repeat, the long sob of the violin in autumn."

————

Vasily put down his earphones: "The code word is coming! The artillery has locked the second ambush position!"

"Is it second?" Pavlov confirmed.

"Yes! I'm sure it's the secret code for the second ambush position." Vasily said firmly.

Pavlov picked up the phone: "Get the artillery regiment! Hurry up!"

————

Prosen Corps, Knights of the Order Ampra Armored Division Headquarters.

Acting Commander Klose listened to the sudden voice on the radio and shouted: "Who knows Antese?"

"I can! This is the first sentence of Verlaine's poem "Autumn Song"." said a staff officer.

Mr. Kruse: "Why are you suddenly reciting poetry? Is this some kind of code word? Is something going to happen?"

A staff officer worriedly asked: "Is it going to bombard us?"

Obviously, the precise killing of the division commander brought serious psychological pressure to other division commanders.

Kruse waved his hand: "Don't scare yourself. If you want to blow us up, we will be blown up a long time ago. Will you wait now? No, this must be another code word. Our Ant Army does not have enough radios and can only rely on phone calls. The person who ordered it should be For some reason, I left the node with the phone.

"He had a radio next to him... He should be in a tank."

Suddenly Cruze came to the table, picked up the combat resume of the white horse general, flipped through it quickly and shouted: "Tank! This white horse general likes to command the army in a tank, and his tank likes to hang on the antenna. Military flag! Tell the second battalion that the enemy’s white horse general is in a tank and there is a military flag on the tank antenna!”

————

Wang Zhong was paying attention to the enemy infantry, and Vasily's voice suddenly came from the earphones: "General! The enemy knows that you are in the tank, and also knows that your tank has a military flag! Lower the military flag quickly!"

Wang Zhong glanced at the red flag on the antenna, shook his head and said, "Let them do it. And you guys, don't shout in plain code!"

In fact, if you want to keep this kind of radio communication confidential now, you can only use code words or code names.

Basically, both sides can hear each other's radio. Later, those advanced things like frequency hopping and password communication are not available now.

That's why the Americans came up with the trick of using Indian dialect as a code word.

As soon as Wang Zhong finished scolding Vasily, he saw the enemy infantry entering the second ambush position.

At this moment, the symbol of the armored force suddenly appeared in the ambush position!

A T34 that had just been stunned by a big bomb "woke up"!

I saw him reversing and firing, and retreated all the way to the simple road.

Then another tank "awoke" - no, three tanks woke up, and together with the tank that woke up first, they formed an armored platoon!

But Wang Zhong soon discovered that one of the tanks had its tracks damaged and could not move.

He watched as the tank crew jumped out of the tank and fired at the elite Panzergrenadiers with their weapons.

However, the enemy's machine gun fired immediately.

According to the German tradition, the infantry uses 98K to pull the big bolt, relying entirely on the machine gun to provide continuous suppressive firepower.

The heavy firepower of the light machine gun knocked down all the tank crews in one fell swoop.

Wang Zhong was heartbroken when he saw it.

Fortunately, the remaining three tanks successfully retreated past the hedge line and entered the wilderness. The tank's firepower pushed the enemy infantry who tried to approach back into the hedge.

It's now!

Wang Zhong: "You stab my heart with monotonous melancholy. Repeat, stab my heart with monotonous melancholy!"

"Got it!" Vasily responded.

Wang Zhong: "Damn it, don't respond!"

Although Vasily is a fool, Wang Zhong is not worried about him falling behind.

Seconds later, the roar of shells piercing the sky was heard.

The first wave of 152mm heavy artillery landed.

The hedgerow position that had just been plowed by the Stuka's 500 kilograms was once again covered in steel and fire.

The birch trees that form the hedge are swaying wildly, but they are like bamboo that "remains strong despite repeated blows."

Let the wind blow from east to west, from north to south!
