The car roared forward, and the air was filled with the smell of dust and gasoline... It was the gift left by the 5th armored regiment ahead.

The recruits became nervous again. Qin Chuan saw big drops of sweat flowing down their cheeks. Several recruits were pale and breathing rapidly. From time to time, they looked out the car window, as if they were afraid that the enemy or shells would suddenly appear in front of them.

"Relax!" Qin Chuan reminded the recruits: "Our tanks are driving in front, they are much more advanced than enemy tanks, and they will destroy all obstacles that stand in front!"

After hearing this, several veterans of Werner couldn't help but look at Qin Chuan in confusion because they knew that what Qin Chuan was saying was not the truth... The German "No. 3" tank may be better than "Matilda" in terms of maneuver, but face-to-face combat is still slightly inferior.

But they quickly understood and tacitly understood each other because they knew that although it was a lie, it was a lie of kindness.

Such lies are often needed on the battlefield. For example, bakers often say to their subordinates: "Do what I say, you will be fine. Until now, I have not lost a soldier!"

I'm afraid that even the recruits don't believe this lie, but it will make them feel better.

Sure enough, the new recruits' nervous mood calmed down much.

The convoy continued to move forward, getting closer and closer to the battlefield. Occasionally, a few shells exploded nearby, but the convoy still had no intention of stopping.

At this time, let alone the recruits, even Qin Chuan was a little nervous.

Because this is the first time he has faced this situation... crossing the line of fire in a car is like playing a Russian turntable. The difference is that the Russian turntable is to stuff a bullet into a revolver to bet on life and death, but here, the life of a car is determined by a certain probability of shells.

Qin Chuan could only comfort himself in his heart: "There is not a big chance of being hit by a shell, so it's safe!"

However, unfortunate incident happened. "Boom". With a dazzling light, a shell hit a car on the right side. Because the fuel tank was filled with gasoline, the whole car instantly burst out with bright flames and flew into the air. The soldiers inside were blown out, radiating like a pack of marbles being blown open and flew into all directions.

Qin Chuan clearly saw that some of the soldiers were waving and struggling in the air. Of course, most of the soldiers were afraid that they would leave their bodies as soon as possible.

When the car landed on the ground, it was broken into several pieces, with parts and iron pieces spread all over the floor, and a fire-ridden tire bounced and rolled in the desert until it escaped the soldiers' horrified sight.

A urge to get out of the car came to Qin Chuan's heart, because he couldn't help but think that the next shell would hit his car, and then they would have the same fate in the car.

Soon Qin Chuan knew that not only he had this idea, because a recruit asked Kuhn in a trembling voice: "Sir, why don't we get off the car and walk?"

"Because we didn't get the order!" Kuhn simply refused the request.

In fact, it is indeed not suitable to get off the bus and walk. Now it is fast interspersed, so walking will definitely not keep up with the speed of the tank.

However, even worse, the enemy's plane soon discovered the convoy, so several fighter planes immediately dived down and fired a string of bullets at the car.

A piece of blood suddenly burst out on the other side of the car... 30 to 40 soldiers were squeezed into each car, like a can of human flesh. The steel plates blocked outside were only a few millimeters thick. Any few bullets could take away the lives of a group of soldiers.

One of them seemed to have been hit by the fuel tank, so with a "boom", the whole car turned into a big fireball, and screams followed. Most of the soldiers were burned to death before they could get off the car. The few sitting at the rear of the car flipped out, but they could not extinguish the flames on their bodies. They rolled wildly in the sand for a while, and then they stopped moving again.

However, this situation quickly improved, and several German fighter jets rushed to fight fiercely with British fighter jets.

Because Qin Chuan and others could not see the situation above with their heads under the car cover, they could only stare at the top, their ears were filled with the whistling of fighter planes and the "dial" sound of machine guns. Everyone's eyes were filled with fear. Whether it was a new recruit or a veteran, they didn't know when a bomb or a row of bullets would blow the car they were on and themselves into pieces.

Once again, Qin Chuan discovered that human life was so fragile in front of war machines.

Several armored vehicles stopped, and the machine gunners set up anti-aircraft machine guns to shoot in the sky. Then a British fighter plane fell from the air with a harsh roar and made a burst of noise.

Finally, the British fighter jets could not withstand the double attacks from the ground and the air, so they chose to leave.

A cheer broke out in the carriage, and the soldiers breathed a sigh of relief at the same time... Although the enemy fighter plane did not cause much casualties to the convoy from beginning to end, the pressure it put on the soldiers was extraordinary. In front of the enemy fighter plane, the soldiers seemed to have to wait for them to pick. The person who picked the car would die, which would give people a feeling of powerlessness and frustration, and there was also a great psychological pressure.

The convoy continued to advance in artillery fire, and the number of shells that exploded nearby was increasing, but not in scale.

Qin Chuan thought that this should be the reason why most British artillery soldiers were used to fight fiercely with the Germans in the direction of Capzzo Village, and the Germans also had artillery and air forces to suppress them, otherwise a piece of artillery shells would cause heavy casualties and injuries to the Germans.

Further forward, Qin Chuan noticed several scouts holding signal flags on the sand to command the convoy to walk to the left. On their right, a "Three" tank was stuck in the sand and could not move. Several tank crew members were in a hurry to get it out, but it was not easy to do this in the desert.

This situation often occurs in the desert, which is mainly caused by different sand quality. In particular, some places happen to be between the weight that tanks and cars can bear, which is even more confusing, because even if the scouts drive armored vehicles, they cannot detect the problem. They can only wait until a tank is trapped in.

But it's too late to find out the problem...
