A small number of German deserters temporarily escaped and were considered successful in their escape. However, this does not mean that all German soldiers can achieve such "success". The corner of Malashenko's mouth is now only the skeleton hand holding a bloody pen that was used by the Grim Reaper.
The evil smile outlined.
"Keep pushing forward! Keep the front line to attack in an orderly manner! Suppress these fascist beasts until they die!"
When the war has progressed to this point, there is actually not much suspense at all, whether from the perspective of the Red Army or the German army, or even from the perspective of a bystander.
Those powerful, shocking, and huge IS7 heavy tanks gave the enemy a sense of unconquerable despair. They charged at the forefront with full firepower. The storm-like rain of vehicle-mounted machine gun bullets covered every inch of land wherever they went.
The beating caused soil crumbs to fly and gravel to fly everywhere.
2 7.62mm plus 1 14.5mm coaxial, plus 2 14.5mm dual-purpose on the roof, a total of 5 machine guns with violent firepower like a death storm. There are no corpses at all wherever they go, only unlimited and unlimited supply
Chunks of minced meat and splatters of blood were everywhere.
In terms of the total mass of projectiles projected per unit time, the machine gun firepower projected by these mass-produced IS7 heavy tanks, which have been modified from the vehicle-mounted machine gun program to reduce useless redundant firepower, still far exceeds that of the BMP43 infantry fighting vehicle.
The output power of the 25mm main gun.
Its anti-tank and anti-fortification capabilities are unparalleled, and its anti-infantry capability is even better.
The brutal machine gun barrage turned into a combine harvester of death. Everywhere it passed were piles of vaguely harvested meat, and even a complete piece of flesh was hard to find.
After reaching a close enough distance before approaching, these IS7 heavy tanks charging forward were enough to provide relatively accurate close support to one's own infantry.
Instead of direct fire from the 130mm heavy artillery, this thing is too powerful and too violent. It is as unrealistic as a Red Navy destroyer coming ashore carrying the main gun to support the infantry. Even if the mass-produced version of the IS7 is equipped with a
The entire set of new high-precision optical sights, which cost 2.5 times more than the IS6 production version, is still no good.
There is no other reason. It is not that the accuracy is poor and it is easy to accidentally injure oneself, but simply because the power is too great and the killing radius is too wide. Even if a German machine gun team is aiming to hit a German machine gun 30 meters away, it is possible to accidentally injure one's own people due to shrapnel.
.
But this does not mean that IS7 can only use its huge body to scare people and suppress those German sticks in terms of visual impact. One main gun cannot be used. I still have 5 machine guns. Before the infantry charges, I must first kill the infantry comrades.
The road was sifted with machine guns, and a wave of penetrating shots were fired at any place where German sticks might be hidden. The effect it had could no longer be described as good.
"There are German corpses everywhere. Are we here to collect them? There is no one alive in this trench. It's all minced meat and half-cut corpses."
"Hey, look at this, it's been beaten into three parts. The two legs are over there, the belly is here, and I don't know if the head is his, but it's 5 meters away. This guy was physically examined by IS7 from top to bottom.
Did you do it again?"
With his feet in the trench filled with broken flesh and blood blisters, Alsim, who had fought two consecutive high-intensity bloody battles, was changing the magazine of the AK in his hand, while listening to the emotions of the brothers around him and the battlefield.
Speech, with a smile.
It sounds like it is a summary and improvement of battlefield experience, and it has been proven to be effective and very useful.
Alsim and his combat engineer brothers had previously encountered situations where they had run out of ammunition in two consecutive high-intensity battles, and had to pick up the bloody and fleshy items on the ground.
The German weapons, which were still very unwieldy, were improvised.
Although the cloth bag chest strap with enhanced ammunition carrying capacity can carry up to 8 full magazines, some combat engineer veterans also get another spare chest strap and tear off the ammunition pocket on it
Sewn to the same chest sling, the chest sling is made into a super enhanced version that can hold 10 or even 12 magazines.
But this is a fully automatic assault rifle after all. Two consecutive high-intensity battles that last for several hours will still leave you with no ammunition, especially for those who charge in front and retreat behind. Every time they enter the battlefield, they are fighting with German sticks.
This is especially true for combat engineers who are fighting with each other.
There are 12 spare magazines plus one inserted in the gun, so it is not impossible to empty all the 13 magazines in total. There are really those in the combat engineer battalion who don't use the big paddle at all.
A Slavic warrior who is fully automatic and rushes to the bottom. He just wants to use bullets to kill the Germans, and it has been proven to be very effective during the clearing of trenches. What can you do?
There is no point in piling more magazines on the body. We must find other ways to solve the problem. Soldiers cannot become mobile battlefield ammunition depots carrying huge amounts of bullets.
Arsim, who was able to meet his comrade, once mentioned the matter to Malashenko inadvertently, saying that he had a headache and didn't know how to solve it, and that the problem was quite tricky and troublesome.
After hearing this, Malashenko, who was deeply surprised, just blinked and gave a solution that Alsim had never thought of before with almost no thought.
"Why do you need to carry it with you? Isn't it bad to put the ammunition in the infantry fighting vehicle?"
"The new combat outline compiled by the division headquarters has clearly told you that infantry fighting vehicles are assigned to squads. Infantry fighting vehicles are the core of the mechanized infantry squad. One vehicle constitutes a squad. The squad relies on direct-aiming, heavy fire support and battlefield communications.
The infantry fighting vehicle is completed. Why not let the strongest comrade in the class help you carry ammunition?"
"Is the infantry fighting vehicle only responsible for sending you to the battlefield and then retreating? If the rocket launcher ammunition in the squad is not enough, are you going to let your soldiers carry seven or eight new rockets on their backs alone, and then insert a dozen more
A magazine full of bullets and a dozen grenades to fight the Germans? No, Alsim."
"Be more flexible. It's not the past. You have to learn to think about how to maximize the combat effectiveness of new equipment. Synthesis is a profound knowledge of war. Even I am still summarizing and learning. I hope you can too.
Like me, and I believe you can do a good job, right?"
Some things are like this. Grassroots commanders who are used to fighting traditional old-style wars sometimes find it difficult to think of new equipment under new combat concepts that can help with troublesome tasks that they could not even think of before. It is like some people who have never been exposed to it.
The old-style army based on the armored force concept, when it first gets a new thing like a tank, its first reaction is not to let the tanks cover the infantry, but to let the infantry protect the tanks in a meat-and-iron battle.
It sounds funny, but it's the truth.
If people's thinking cannot keep up with the upgrading of equipment and the transformation and development of combat concepts, then this kind of joke will definitely happen. It's just a difference in the degree of the joke, but it's actually the same in essence, even the leader and teacher.
This elite-level force is no exception.
Recalling what Malashenko had said to him, he took another look at the fully loaded magazine that he had just gone to the infantry tank to replenish, and the nearest supply did not take two minutes. Alsim said to the division commander, "
"Omniscient and omnipotent" only made me admire him even more.
Whether they are tank soldiers or infantry soldiers, they are so proficient in combat, and they can also boldly innovate. How can we not be deeply impressed by them?
"Okay, we've almost rested enough! Have a drink of water and let's move on!"
