Before rushing into the train station, the reconnaissance team rushed forward at high speed. When they encountered a slightly more tenacious German, they immediately used their maneuverability to take a detour. They did not expect that so many fire hedgehogs would appear in the station.
Anti-aircraft firepower.
Anti-aircraft firepower can not only deal with aircraft in the sky. In many cases, as long as the need arises, the gun barrel can also be leveled to deal with ground troops. This is not difficult, such as now.
Compared with the lax German garrison forces outside the station, the German garrison forces inside the station have been significantly strengthened and the defenses have been reinforced. What is particularly difficult to deal with is the large, medium and small caliber weapons that are everywhere, and there are quite a few of them.
They are all kinds of anti-aircraft guns that suppress you from above.
Dong dong dong dong——
This is a series of sounds of a 20mm small-caliber rapid-fire anti-aircraft cannon firing.
Bang bang bang bang——
This is the roar of the 40mm twin anti-aircraft guns firing wildly.
Boom——Boom——Boom——
Needless to say, any Red Army soldier who has been in battle for a long time and has fought against the Germans many times can hear it. The 88 gun heirloom passed down by the Germans is the sound of the short 88 anti-aircraft gun being flattened and bombarded on the ground.
It can also be considered as your German traditional performing arts.
Small-caliber German anti-aircraft cannons were installed at commanding heights such as on the roof of the waiting hall and on the roofs of several warehouses. When placing these anti-aircraft cannons and setting up gun positions, it was obvious that ground fire suppression was specifically considered.
Capability, try to avoid the problem of high altitude and low altitude, which makes the anti-aircraft gun unable to cover due to the limitation of depression angle. The firing range basically just covers the edge of the train station.
This allowed these German small-caliber anti-aircraft guns occupying the commanding heights to unleash their firepower unscrupulously on the reconnaissance team that had just rushed into the train station.
If the impact is to a closer position, it can indeed cause these to basically push the barrel depression angle to the limit. It is impossible to continue to lower the anti-aircraft gun. Because of the problem of limited depression angle, it is no longer possible to attack closer to the position.
Red Army troops on the ground.
But the problem is that it is a problem to rush through this ferocious high-rate suppression fire network. Speaking of this small-caliber cannon, it can actually withstand the main armor defense of the BMP43 infantry fighting vehicle and T43 medium tank, and will not be randomly penetrated.
But the problem is that these damn small-caliber rapid-fire anti-aircraft guns are condescending and hit low, seriously weakening the inclination equivalent defense that the Red Army armored combat vehicles have always used. Armor-piercing projectiles fired high and low have a high chance of hitting the dome of the vehicle body.
On the armor and the top armor of the turret, these two vulnerable parts of the defense really dare not bear the armor-piercing bullet chain of the small-caliber rapid-fire machine gun and fire continuously.
Just like those fighter jets and attack aircraft equipped with 20 to 30 mm cannons that attack the top and lick the ground, it is not surprising at all to be penetrated by small-caliber armor-piercing bullets fired from high places. It can be expected, so just bite the bullet.
It is impossible to forcefully break through the fire blockade, and it is not impossible to even send the entire reconnaissance team to this place.
Furthermore, the Germans don’t only have small-caliber cannons to cause trouble for you at high places. Those large-caliber 88mm anti-aircraft guns deployed on the ground due to their wide body, fat body and heavy tonnage are also a headache.
boom--
Boom——
"Suka! The German 88 guns are still firing at us. This broken wall is about to collapse! Retreat, everyone retreat quickly! Quick, quick, quick!"
The reconnaissance team, who had taken shelter behind a warehouse to temporarily avoid the enemy's fierce firepower, had no choice but to stay any longer.
If you rush out, you will be beaten into a sieve and swept into a pulp. Not to mention, the Germans with enough firepower are not even satisfied with fire suppression. Instead, they directly start the demolition operation, focusing on the firepower of large, medium and small-caliber anti-aircraft guns.
The 88 gun loaded with high-explosive bombs blasted the warehouse that was used as a bunker. After several rounds of intensive firepower, the warehouse was riddled with holes and cracks, and was about to collapse.
Seeing that the situation was not good and unable to make a breakthrough, the reconnaissance team could only retreat temporarily.
Not long after the front foot had withdrawn in an orderly manner, including people and vehicles, the Germans who were still carrying out a crazy fire attack destroyed the warehouse on the edge of the train station.
Crack, crackle and boom——
A burst of wall collapse and house collapse instantly sent flying sand and rocks, accompanied by cannonballs and explosive flashes of light and stone, which was deafening.
The collapse of the warehouse and the smoke from the explosion of the artillery shell filled the entire scene. The formation was so large that the smoke and dust and explosion flames rose together and spread to more than 20 meters, almost 30 meters in the air.
Looking at this formation, it seems that the Germans were hoarding munitions and explosives in the warehouse. The warehouse collapsed, and when the shells exploded, there were simultaneous explosions, which led to such a movement, causing the fire to be accompanied by smoke and dust.
Soaring straight into the sky to such a height that it temporarily completely blocks the battlefield view of the entire area. This is the same for both warring parties, without any favorable or unfavorable favoritism.
The German's shooting field of view was temporarily blocked by the rising smoke and fire from the explosion. He originally wanted to continue firing wildly to see if he could kill some more Russians who had lost their bunkers to expand the results, but now they encountered this situation.
That's all I can do is give up.
However, this does not mean that the German army has stopped. All the German anti-aircraft artillery batteries in the station that can cover this direction with firepower still remain on alert without exception, preparing to attack anyone who appears in the field of vision again after the smoke and dust from the explosion dissipates.
The Russians opened fire.
"Hold on! The train is pulling into the station and stopping, and our reinforcements have arrived! Soon we will organize a counterattack and drive the Russians out completely. We must not lose our ground! Everyone must fight to the end for the Führer!"
A certain fanatical German commander waved the pistol in his hand, stood on the anti-aircraft position and loudly encouraged and ordered his subordinates around him.
But before this guy finished speaking, and it looked like he probably wanted to say a few more words, a gunner who was at the commanding heights, with the rear of the gun on the roof of the waiting station, forcibly interrupted him, and shouted without warning at the top of his voice.
Yell.
"Heavy tanks! Stalin 6! The Russians increase their firepower..."
call out--
Boom——
The sharp air-piercing scream and the roaring roar of explosions sounded almost at the same time. The powerful explosion instantly destroyed the 20mm anti-aircraft gun emplacement before it had time to fire.
The entire German anti-aircraft artillery battery did not even have a chance to escape. They were met by the man in the tank who had never met him before and would never have the chance to meet him again in this life, but he was obviously a master with extremely fast reactions and accurate gunnery skills.
The Red Army gunners were taken away by a cannon, and both men and cannons were blown into the sky.
The powerful 122 grenade not only blew up the entire artillery group, but also directly blew up a large part of the edge of the roof of the waiting hall. The flying masonry fragments and construction debris fell like rain, hitting the building below.
The fanatical German officer who was just showing off was covered in small pieces of gravel and debris all over his face. There was no fatal damage, at most it was a little painful.
