Steel Soviet Union

""

Malashenko, who couldn't hold back a sentence for a while, could only say that the word "buried alive" was indeed used very delicately. The final explanation for the disappearance of the Germans on the surface could only be this: they were all buried underground.

To take a step back, even if you are still alive when you are first buried, how long can you survive when you are overwhelmed by tons of floating soil and cannot get out or even scream?

Minutes? Or in seconds?

Who knows, Malashenko has never been buried alive anyway, and he doesn’t know how long he can survive if buried alive. If he was buried alive by a huge amount of “unearthed” gas tanks, then this bunch of nazis deserved their death, right?

If you look at it this way, some things seem to be explainable.

The shelling that lasted for more than an hour at the beginning may not have killed all the Germans. Even the fierce artillery preparations of the Guards Group and the leading division could not achieve such a terrifying 100% kill rate. After all, it is a line of defense carefully managed by the Germans who are ready to fight to the end. No matter what, there are still two brushes.

Conventional bombardment can be resisted, but irregular bombing may not be possible. Those 18 gas tanks may be the real "source of destruction."

If it doesn't blow you up, it can still shock you to death. If it doesn't blow you to death, it can still bury you alive.

See if you hide well or if I have a large killing radius. If you have the ability, crawl out from under the huge unearthed volume of 5 tons of gas tanks.

Aren't you hiding in a shell hole to avoid shelling and bombing?

Just in time, don't come out, always hide inside. The unearthed volume of 5 tons of gas tanks can not only block the entrance of your anti-cannon hole, but also fill up the entire tomb and add a layer of rammed earth for you.

What? Who will "tamp it down", you ask?

Why don't your leaders come and beat you with moral sticks? Isn’t it enough to be pounded by the tracks of the 50-ton and 70-ton IS6 and IS7 heavy tanks? Is it irritating? Is the service in place?

If the customer doesn't speak, then it will be a good review by default. According to the system statistics, the positive rate is 100% and there is no negative review. Congratulations to the leader for winning the honorary title of "Excellent Battlefield Funeral Company" this year. The company's CEO, Comrade Malashenko, is awarded first-class commendation as a sign of encouragement. .

"Damn it, now we can't even be a corpse collection team, we have become a grave clearing team. What the hell is this?"

It can be expected that the power of the gas tank is absolutely extraordinary. After experiencing the "wind of destruction" whistling from the middle of the slope, I am even more convinced of this, but the power of the gas tank is too "unusual" Now it really scares Malashenko.

Some things are just like this. It is useless to just imagine and hear about them. Only after you conduct on-site inspections and experience them personally can you feel all this and feel the actual effects.

Malashenko, who had no sympathy for the Germans, glanced at the super gas tank pit with a diameter of more than 20 meters in front of him. Anyway, the depth on the turret was bottomless. He shook his head helplessly and then continued. Ordered.

"Where is your company commander? Where is he?"

"Over there, in the other direction of the defense line. Our company was split into two parts for action. I am responsible for leading a small part of the team here, Comrade Division Commander."

It is quite common for a company to be split into two parts and operate separately. After all, grassroots combat troops do not always operate in company groups.

Especially after the leader division completed the mechanical synthesis adaptation, the infantry was mostly grouped into infantry fighting vehicles, with each infantry fighting vehicle representing a mechanized infantry squad to coordinate tank operations. It is a commonly used combat plan to match how many infantry fighting vehicles to a tank for coordinated operations, rather than leaving the infantry fighting vehicles alone and calculating how many infantry to match.

I glanced at the infantry fighting vehicles of the soldiers in front of me and parked them not far away. According to the requirements in the new combat outline of the leading division, "people and vehicles are not separated on the battlefield." This is not only conducive to the development of combat power and ready tactics. It is more mobile and more convenient for radio command communication. After confirming the situation, Malashenko immediately issued the final order.

"Take your car and follow me first. Avoid the pit in front and follow closely. Let's keep pushing forward!"

"Yes, comrade division commander! I heard you all. Go and ask the chariot to follow! Move quickly!"

Just as his order required, he led the troops back on the road and bypassed the huge crater left by the exploding gas tank in front of them.

But after bypassing this pit, Malashenko discovered that the matter was not over here. There were more pits ahead, one after another. There were two or even four pits not far away. A pair get together.

Needless to say, these are masterpieces that can only be made by two gas canister twins who were dropped in pairs at once.

It's impossible for people to fill the pits, but we can't just move forward just because these super pits are big enough to fit even a double-digit IS7. We still have to go the way we should go, and Malashenko believes that if we continue to go, we will eventually encounter Germans who are still alive and a fight will break out.

They simply asked the troops to bypass these giant pits without much thought, one after another, until there were no more pits in front of them. But this has also caused the leading attacking troops of the leading division to become more and more sparse and loose due to frequent detours and twists and turns. The originally good attack formation has now become a sieve, and there is no formation at all. Word.

I was thinking about walking a little further, and after I had bypassed all the pits, I ordered to assemble a wave of troops and reorganize their formation. But before Malashenko could give the order with actual actions, an unexpected situation report came from the vanguard further ahead, reaching Malashenko's ears.

"Found traces of the Germans! There are not many people. There are about more than a hundred people. I didn't see heavy weapons. They are all light infantry! They are fleeing to higher places. They want to reach the top of the high ground and have already left the second line of defense!"

"Um?"

Hearing this, Malashenko felt as if his body was electrified and he suddenly became energetic.

Wanting to figure out the situation, he immediately held the commander's periscope and looked forward, only to find that there was no trace of the Germans on the road leading to the higher ground in his field of vision. Perhaps these turtles had not reached that high yet. The location is uncertain.

"Do you want to attack? Repeat, do you want to attack the enemy?"

The enemy had already left the operational range of the second line of defense, and the vanguard troops who were unsure whether to pursue the enemy sent an inquiry. Of course, only Malashenko could give this order.

"Give chasing and destroying firepower, but do not pursue. Strike the enemy until it is destroyed or its remnants escape the range."

"receive!"

The leading troops had already pursued the second route through the "clearance", and only encountered a sparse group of German deserters running away towards higher ground, obviously looking for someone to rendezvous.

This at least illustrates one problem: the second line of defense no longer has the organized defense force of the Germans. The line of defense has been penetrated before encountering a group of deserters. So what the hell are you doing to defend yourself?

Boom boom boom——

Da da da da——

Bang - Bang -

Hearing the familiar signature sound of firing from one's own weapons not far ahead, there was no sound of the German's firearms retaliating.

Malashenko, who knew that this was the leading force projecting pursuit and annihilation firepower against the enemy in accordance with the order, did not say anything. He just opened the turret hatch above his head again and leaned out, quietly looking back at the continuous, continuous fire behind him. There is also a sigh from the super big pit that cannot be seen outside the field of vision.

"What a shame, everyone is equal in front of the gas tank."
