Steel Soviet Union

After suffering a round of bombardment, he immediately threw down his weapons and surrendered. This was what Malashenko wanted to see most. If this was the case, he would be able to save himself a lot of trouble of taking off his pants and farting.

But some things can only be limited to thinking about. The scene that Malashenko hoped to see the Germans realize and surrender immediately did not happen. On the contrary, those Germans who picked up the things in their hands and were ready to fight to the end came into view, although many of the Germans had panicked expressions on their faces.

But actual actions are more important than your expressions. As long as you have not laid down your weapons, you will be destroyed. Malashenko will not show mercy to these Germans.

"Kurbalov, the Germans are ready to fight us to the end. Lead your people to rush up and kill these fascists for me! Let these stupid pigs know who is the boss!"

Almost at the same time as the First Regiment's charge, Comrade Lao Ma, who couldn't bear the loneliness when he heard the sound of cannons, also boarded his command vehicle, led his guard company to charge with a wave of his hand, and joined the First Regiment. this battle.

Different from the previous pursuit and annihilation battles

This time, facing the Germans who were in a defensive posture and had no solid positions available, Malashenko did not send medium tank troops to the front. It is obvious that there is no need to win with speed to chase the enemy. The heavy tanks with strong armor and sharp guns have finally ushered in the most suitable moment for them to take the stage. Directly sending heavy tank troops to attack is the order Malashenko has given.

The regiment has already completed the re-equipment and is now a powerful armored force equipped entirely with IS6 heavy tanks.

The high power-to-weight ratio and large-diameter road wheels give the IS6 heavy tank the powerful off-road mobility that is close to that of a medium tank. This final charging distance progresses particularly quickly.

It took less than a minute from the time when the German army saw the enemy tank group charging, until the German army, which had just endured an indiscriminate bombing, entered the fighting position, picked up the weapons in their hands and prepared to fight.

The IS6 heavy tank group galloping on the muddy off-road road was almost in the face. Such a fast attack speed was incomparable with any Red Army heavy tank unit that the German army had encountered in the past.

In addition, the IS6 heavy tank, which has a more ferocious shape and is larger than the IS2 heavy tank, is extremely visually impactful. Dozens of these mighty steel behemoths roared with black smoke and rushed towards the face with a rainbow of momentum. It was enough to scare many German infantry who had just entered the combat position.

"Anti-tank guns! Do we still have any usable anti-tank guns?!"

"Tanks, let our tanks open fire! Kill those Russians, quickly!"

Creatures like humans always want to struggle before being completely destroyed, even if the struggle may be useless in the end, they will still do it.

boom--

The German army, driven by a strong desire for survival, started to attack. The few remaining tanks and the few surviving anti-tank guns parked on the position as anti-tank firepower points finally opened fire and roared before the enemy tanks rolled onto the position.

But just like any previous battle in the Cherkasy encirclement, the German tank guns, anti-tank guns and armor-piercing shells were like scratching an itch in front of those new thick-skinned Stalin heavy tanks. useless work.

The armor-piercing projectile that came out of the barrel with extremely high muzzle velocity hit the main armor belt on the front of the tank. Apart from leaving a few scratch marks and cracks on the Soviet tank's paint, what was left of it? Can't do it either. It is not even qualified to break through the strong and thick front main armor belt of the IS6 heavy tank, and it cannot even achieve semi-penetration caused by shells stuck in the armor.

2 Panzer IVs, 3 Panthers I, 4 50mm anti-tank guns and 2 75mm anti-tank guns. This is the only surviving force on the German position after a round of heavy artillery. Anti-tank force.

Unfortunately, none of the above-mentioned guys can pose any effective threat to the Russian tanks, and the shells have no substantive effect except for the sound.

Real-life tank battles are not like the health bar in the game. If you can't penetrate the armor with one shot, the actual damage caused to the enemy tank will be infinitely close to zero. Even if you fire four more, five more, or even more than a dozen shots, it will still be the same. It will still fail to penetrate, and there will not be any substantial qualitative change due to the accumulation of quantitative changes.

The tank guns and anti-tank guns on the position kept ringing, and the German soldiers who were already looking desperate were almost frozen in expression.

"My God! What kind of monster has Stalin created for himself? Are those Russian tractors invincible?"

"It's over, we all have to die here! There's no way we can stop those Russian monsters!"

Before the truly brutal close-quarters fighting officially began, the morale of the German infantry dropped by half.

In fact, the German infantry cannot be entirely blamed for such an incident. Just imagine that an army without a position has just been subjected to a round of crazy artillery baptism, and a vast sea of ​​enemy tanks is attacking you with this indestructible attitude. Come. And any anti-tank firepower behind you is in vain. No matter how hard you try, you can't stop the crazy enemy at all.

There is a saying that the German infantrymen are doing a good job by not throwing away their guns on the spot, turning around and running away. Looking at the whole world, there are few armies that can withstand such a terrifying thing.

"All crews slow down! The distance is almost there, let the infantry dismount! The main gun and coaxial machine gun start firing, suppress the German firepower!"

The tank that was originally charging at full speed began to slow down. This was not only about putting down the tank knights hanging on the vehicle, but also to complete the assault attack of the last 100 meters sprint distance in a coordinated posture of infantry and tanks. At the same time, it is also an excellent opportunity to use the ferocious firepower of the main gun and coaxial machine gun to suppress the German small arms firepower on the position, reducing the pressure on the infantry and creating opportunities for charge.

Initially, they were only attacked by small weapons from the tank knights, and at most they were shot by the coaxial machine guns of the advancing tanks, which lacked accuracy. The German infantry on the position could barely stick their heads out and fire back twice, proving that the people on the position were not dead yet. Light.

However, as soon as Kulbalov, who was leading the attack and charging ahead, gave an order, the Stalin heavy tanks immediately began to stop and slow down. Not only were they putting down the tank knights hanging on them, they had already pointed at the target and completed rough aiming. The 122mm main gun also opened fire together.

The high-explosive grenades that had been loaded in the gun barrel and ready to go were prepared in advance for this moment.
