Chapter 766: German-Soviet War (80)

After saying some words of encouragement, the colonel left the ward with his adjutant. Lieutenant Judit opened the medal box and found a silver wounded medal lying quietly inside. Although it is mass-produced, the workmanship is quite exquisite, comparable to a work of art. After all, this thing is for the injured, so naturally it can't be too shabby.

Opening the letter of commendation, the content of the letter was typed out on a typewriter. Lieutenant Judith felt that someone should be responsible for typing these letters, but at the bottom there was the signature and personal seal of the commander-in-chief of the corps.

"Congratulations, Lieutenant." However, since most of the wounded who came here received various injury medals, the doctor was not surprised.

Lieutenant Judith smiled bitterly. "I'd rather be on the front lines charging into battle."

But at this moment, the front line he "longs for" is still filled with smoke and bullets.

On a Soviet position in the city of Smolensk, nearly a platoon of Soviet soldiers were pouring bullets wildly into the distance to block the German attack.

At this time, a huge monster that these Soviet troops had never heard of or seen slowly drove out from the corner of the street in the distance. Everyone was so stunned that they even forgot to pull the trigger and fire for a few seconds.

"God, then, that's a mortar?!" Cannons with various exaggerated calibers on land are not uncommon, but this is the first time they have seen such a self-propelled big mouth. The caliber of this guy is definitely 300. More than millimeters! !

The terrifying self-propelled artillery did not fire immediately, but drove leisurely towards their position.

"Quick, counterattack, pull the anti-tank gun over here." This big man's sense of oppression was so strong that it made people shudder. The pale-faced Soviet platoon leader swallowed nervously, suppressed the thought of turning around and running away, and asked the soldiers to push over a surviving M1937 anti-tank gun. After the anti-tank guns were in place, the Soviet platoon leader couldn't wait to give the order to fire. "Fire!"

"Boom!" The 45mm armor-piercing bullet flew towards the armored monster with everyone's hope.

This steel behemoth is the German "Assault Tiger" assault gun. Grille armor is also welded around the body. However, the grille armor naturally cannot block armor-piercing bullets. This armor-piercing bullet easily penetrated the grille armor and hit it hard. It hit its turret, made a crisp sound, and bounced to the other side. The design concept of the "Assault Tiger" is for urban combat. It must be pushed close enough to face local artillery attacks while destroying the target. Therefore, its armor is 150 mm thick, and with its sloped armor design, how could it be penetrated by a mere 45 mm armor-piercing projectile.

"Keep firing!" Seeing that his own anti-tank shells were tickling the opponent, the Soviet platoon leader roared desperately.

350 meters, 300 meters, 250 meters, 200 meters. Against the desperate shooting of Soviet anti-tank guns, the "Assault Tiger" had approached 150 meters away. After a slight pause, there was a loud "Boom!", and a 380 Millimeter grenades blasted at the Soviet positions, instantly blasting the men and positions into the sky.

After easily destroying this position, the Assault Tiger continued to move forward with an invincible momentum, destroying 13 buildings in one breath, and then rested. Because the Assault Tiger can only load 14 shells at a time, it has to go back to replenish its ammunition. Although it has certain flaws, the power of the "Assault Tiger" at that time cannot be underestimated. The 380mm mortar has huge destructive power against fixed fortifications. During World War II in the original time and space, one of his rockets destroyed three US M4 "Sherman" tanks. For another example, during the suppression of the Warsaw Uprising, facing several towering and solid buildings guarded by the rebels, the "Assault Tiger" used only two artillery shells to blow up the buildings that the Germans had previously been unable to capture for a long time, leaving nothing behind. It's just that except for this war, the "Assault Tiger" tank has not been useful in a decent urban assault battle.

"Continue to attack! Hurry!" After the "Assault Tiger" left, the German soldiers continued to advance, preparing to climb over a hill-like ruins ahead. But when he was halfway up, a soldier slipped and rolled down from the ruins into the crater below.

"Ouch! You dropped me to death!" After finally recovering, he suddenly saw a pale face close at hand. "Oh my god!" The soldier was immediately frightened and punched him subconsciously. The touch of the fist contact made him realize that something was wrong. Only then did he realize that the opponent was a corpse, a dead Soviet soldier. He had obviously been dead for a long time and his body was already stiff.

"Hans, are you okay?" his comrades shouted from above.

"It's okay!" Although his whole body was sore, it did not affect his actions. After picking up his rifle, Hans quickly climbed out of the crater and continued to move forward.

The leading soldier had climbed to the top of the ruins and suddenly retracted. Almost at the same time, several rounds of bullets hit the top of the ruins, sending up a few wisps of white smoke.

"Thirty meters ahead, 4-story building! Prepare smoke bombs!" Several smoke bombs were thrown out, and soon clouds of white smoke filled the air, slowly covering the surrounding area. Under the cover of the smoke, everyone quietly walked towards the building.

Soon, they came to the bottom of the building, took a breath, took out a few grenades and threw them into the window.

"Grenade!" came the terrified shouts of Soviet soldiers inside.

"Boom!" Huge smoke and dust mixed with various messy debris gushed out. Lowering their heads to avoid the shock wave and dust from the window, the two German soldiers turned over and entered the house swiftly. At this time, the house was in a mess, with debris left after the grenade explosion everywhere, and several bloody Soviet soldiers fell in a pool of blood. The soldiers who followed in carefully searched every corner of the room to see if there were any living people here except themselves.

They found a bloody Soviet soldier in the corner, struggling to find the Mosin-Nagant rifle on the ground. His blood-stained eyes stared straight at the German soldier who came up to him, as if he wanted to grab the rifle and shoot the enemy. Seeing that he was about to die with more breath than breath, the German soldier picked up the rifle on the ground and used the bayonet on the gun to finish off the Soviet soldier.

At this time, the German soldiers had all entered the room. Hearing the noisy noise outside, they threw a stun grenade outside the door, and rushed out after the explosion. The Soviet soldiers, who were stunned by the sudden flash and loud noise, were instantly shot out, and then the Germans began to clean up the entire building. (I went to the dentist to get my teeth treated again today, and it took most of the day, so there is only one chapter, sorry)
