The second wave of German troops behind him was temporarily blocked by the barrage of artillery fire, but Malashenko knew that this situation would not last long. Not to mention that once the artillery fire stopped, the Germans would definitely seize the time to pounce on them and continue to act like a monster, even if it was
The artillery fire continued, and the first thing the Germans reacted to after being briefly stunned by the bombing was to try their best to evacuate from the artillery fire.
So what will the Germans who escaped from the barrage do next?
This matter may be a little suspenseful, but the Germans will never escape and then sit on the position and watch helplessly while their own people are buried alive. Malashenko believes that as long as the first wave of German attacking troops in front of the position have not been
If it is completely wiped out, then the remaining Germans will try their best to save people and save this precious armored group.
It may be better to mobilize other troops to rescue people, or to escape from the artillery fire and then circle up from both sides.
No matter what strategy the Germans adopt to save people, only the basic principle that "the Germans will definitely come to save people" is what Malashenko firmly believes in.
After all, as a qualified military commander, you cannot place your hopes for victory on non-subjective controllable things like whether the enemy will die or not. To place your hopes for victory on the enemy's stupidity and incompetence is in itself
A more stupid and incompetent thing, no matter it is in the past, now, or even in the future world of 2022, it cannot be like this.
Malashenko has never committed such a stupid thing in the past, and he will not do it now.
To maximize the unfavorable outcome of the battle and force himself to use all his strength to end the battle in the shortest time, this is Malashenko's true thoughts at the moment.
"Each vehicle crew is in combat position and prioritizes the heavy tank destroyers targeting the Germans! Concentrate fire and kill them!"
The target with the strongest anti-armor firepower has always been the priority for tank soldiers on the battlefield. Because you can only kill the enemy that threatens you the most and ensure your own survival first, and then you can consider other things or even assist friendly forces. This
This is the battlefield truth that has remained unchanged since the birth of armored combat units such as tanks, and it will remain the same in the future.
Compared to most of the Panthers II who were still staying closer to the position, they were located at the rear of the first wave of German offensive troops. Relying on the accuracy advantage brought by the high-magnification long-barreled artillery, they were conducting long-distance operations.
Those tank destroyers providing fire support must be dealt with first.
Not only because their current position is extremely unfavorable for the entire formation, and it is difficult for the troops led by Malashenko to move in a short time when facing the encircling Malashenko. It is also because of the extremely strong reaction of these steel nobles.
The threat of armored firepower is ranked first. In the absence of the Jagdtiger 128 cannon, those Long 88s are the strongest German anti-armor firepower.
"Aim at 11 o'clock, the Russian heavy tank! Load armor-piercing shells!"
"Armor-piercing bullets are good!"
"Aimed!"
"Fire!"
boom--
The enemy is moving and we are still. For the German army, the precious opportunity to fire first is the only advantage that can be called at the moment.
Those Russian tanks that are rushing over with great speed want to enter the real firing position and completely stop the vehicle from high-speed maneuvers. This will take at least a few seconds to more than ten seconds. This is a process that has already completed the course steering of the vehicle body.
For the turretless German tank destroyers, this is indeed the last opportunity that must be seized.

Ding-ding——
"Garbage fascism! The Kraut's armor-piercing bullets are weak, taste the warm greetings of communism!"
The is6 heavy tank adopts the design of a steeply inclined nose to meet bombs. Its entire front armor is completely indestructible based on the firepower level of World War II.
Not to mention that any known vehicle-mounted artillery kinetic energy armor-piercing bullet cannot penetrate. Even if you lift a chemical energy armor-piercing iron fist and shine it on the head, you can only hit it and smear it black and hear the sound.
It didn't help. Even if it was the 130mm high-caliber naval gun of Malashenko's is7 heavy tank, it was useless to fire armor-piercing projectiles at the is6 bow at a horizontal firing angle.
It was almost a violent advance with the fierce bombardment of German armor-piercing shells. The armor was beaten and ping-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pang-pong-pang-pang-pong-pang-pong-pang-pong-ranged. All the way, sparks and lightning gestures were rushed to the firing position, and the turret began to be turned.
The Kulbalov Brigade is the most elite veteran team in the entire leadership division. Naturally, it has the largest proportion of veterans who have experienced various high-intensity battles and survived to this day.
These veterans are familiar with the performance of their weapons and are proficient in all the necessary skills that a tank soldier should master in his career. At the same time, they are also more aware of the weaknesses of weapons in the hands of the enemy that they have fought against more than once, and they also know what to do to optimize the solution.
to respond efficiently.
The direct shooting distance of 800 meters is already quite far. If a traditional full-caliber kinetic energy armor-piercing projectile fires at this distance and hits the target, it will lose a lot of kinetic energy and thus the penetration depth will be greatly reduced.
But that doesn't matter.
To deal with those rough-skinned and fleshy German scrap metal men who couldn't even hit them in the face, the tank soldiers, who knew that the Fascist turtle shell was difficult to chew, never thought of using armor-piercing bullets to hit them hard from the beginning.
Taking advantage of the caliber and using high-explosive bullets to hit your face is definitely the best choice under the current fighting conditions, bar none.
"High explosive bombs are good!"
"Aim for the target!"
"fire!"
Boom——
It's disrespectful to come back without reciprocating. If you Germans serve me with armor-piercing bullets, I will respond with communist 122 grenade.
Boom boom boom——
Boom——
One after another, the 122 high-explosive grenades hit by the wind were like heavy punches, hitting the faces and bodies of those valuable German armors, and even missing the ground near their feet, causing near-misses.
It does not rely on kinetic energy to penetrate deep but relies on chemical energy blasting to cause damage. Even if it is fired from a long distance, it will not cause any power attenuation. As long as you can hit the target, you can deal full damage, ensuring damage.
Large-caliber grenades with low muzzle velocity and low accuracy have both advantages and disadvantages. It is true that some of the grenades missed the first launch and flew over the head of the German car, or hit the surrounding soil and exploded. However,
The damage caused by the grenades that accurately hit the target and exploded instantly was quite shocking.
The huge explosion impact not only broke the tracks, shattered the surface-hardened armor, blew away the muzzle brake, tore the gun barrel, and drilled into all kinds of small gaps such as the observation window gap and the heat dissipation window gap.
The overpressure impact entering the vehicle caused extremely serious damage to everything inside the vehicle in the blink of an eye.
The optical sights were shattered, the power system was paralyzed, and the fuel tank caught fire. What was even more terrible was that the corpses whose facial features were distorted and deformed by the overpressure, and whose seven orifices were bleeding to death, just slumped in their seats motionless with their eyes open.
.
After the two people at the front of the vehicle were killed instantly, only the German soldiers in the fully enclosed fighting room at the rear of the vehicle were in slightly better condition and were still lingering.
