Steel Soviet Union

Even in the modern army of the 21st century, flame weapons are still used as large-scale and efficient anti-infantry weapons and continue to exist in the military establishments of major powers in the world today. They have never been completely eliminated or faded out of people's consciousness. view.

This time-honored and ancient arson attack can almost be said to have borrowed the power of nature.

And when this cruel flame attack reaches a certain level, even humans who claim to be at the top of the food chain will eventually be unable to escape their essential attributes as carbon-based creatures, creating the most essential fear of flames, a tyrannical force of nature.

In the modern battlefields of the 21st century, effective cracking methods and passive countermeasures for flame weapons have not yet been found. It is natural to imagine how terrifying their power to kill all parties would be during the relatively backward World War II period.

The two German infantry divisions, which suffered heavy losses due to the hasty retreat and large-scale Soviet artillery bombardment, did not have many anti-tank weapons on hand at the moment.

The infantry anti-tank equipment in 1941 was far less developed than modern warfare armed with cutting-edge technology.

It is impossible to launch a long-lived charge at the Soviet tanks with explosives in their arms like the Japanese army did during the Battle of Nomenhan, and there is no anti-tank equipment like the Panzerfaust rocket launcher that was born a few years later.

The only anti-tank equipment that the German infantry, which was constantly being repelled under the fierce Soviet offensive, could rely on were the few small-caliber infantry anti-tank guns that were no different from tickling.

The KV1 heavy tank at the front of the entire team well protected the small OT-130 special tanks that followed closely behind, creating a good output environment for anyone who wanted to use these tanks. The German anti-tank groups that followed the fire-breathing tanks were blasted into a pile of parts by 76mm artillery shells.

The German infantrymen who occupied favorable defensive terrain and hid in buildings condescendingly thought of using cluster grenades or incendiary bottles to repeat their old tricks and destroy these light fire-breathing tanks with fragile dome armor with strikes from the sky.

But Malashenko, who has been fighting in the city of Yelnya for nearly two weeks, is now as familiar with the German tactics as a veteran.

After receiving Malashenko's order, the accompanying Soviet infantry immediately began to separate from both sides of the armored force, carefully searching every building along the street where German troops might be hiding to ensure their safety.

The German infantry who were hiding in buildings and remaining silent and stationary, hoping to launch precise attacks from the dark when Soviet tanks passed by, could not wait for the ideal opportunity, so they had to use their weapons to attack the Soviet troops who came to search one by one. The infantry returned fire.

The sound of gunfire confirmed that there were enemy Soviet infantry hiding in the building, and they immediately evacuated the building in accordance with Malashenko's previous order.

The tank column that followed closely behind the forward searching infantry unit would immediately fire back at the German firepower points that exposed the target.

An attack barrage consisting of 76mm high-explosive shells and fiery flames can completely cover a street building in just a moment. The German infantry hiding inside does not have enough time to escape from the moment the shot is exposed until the Soviet infantry withdraws. Inside the building, not to mention the Soviet infantry guarding not far downstairs, it was impossible for these German infantry to leave the building and escape.

After using both soft and hard tactics, the Germans, who had tried various overt and covert countermeasures, were suddenly shocked to find that with their current strength and equipment, they had no countermeasures against the Soviets' systematic siege tactics. Nothing can be done.

Any firepower point exposed by forced fire will immediately attract a concentrated fire attack from the KV1 heavy tank. The German hiding buildings that are slightly closer will be directly devoured by the ferocious fire dragon in an instant.

What's even worse is that even if the German anti-tank firepower after the target is exposed, there is only a 10 to 20% certainty that it can destroy or paralyze the leading KV1 heavy tank, and then it will be concentrated by the Soviet army that has successfully tracked down the enemy. Elimination is simply not worth the gain.

The retreat and ambush tactics were completely put to rest because Malashenko assigned infantry to conduct enemy reconnaissance. Any German firepower point that dared to fire at the Soviet infantry rarely survived for more than 10 seconds.

In other words, Malashenko, who is in charge of commanding this Soviet siege column, is basically using the Soviet infantry to catch these German fish.

Even the Germans who have awakened to this truth and did not take the bait will eventually be completely exposed when the Soviet infantry who are searched house by house encounter their enemies. For the current German army, Malashenko's combat plan is simply a punch to the death spot without any room for counterattack.

As for why Malashenko was so skillful and sophisticated in siege and street fighting that the Germans were at a loss what to do, except for the fact that his retired father who was Lin Jie in his previous life often told him about self-defense against Vietnam back then. During the counterattack, how did he scheming with these cunning monkeys in the Vietnamese city?

What's more important is that Lin Jie, who has studied abroad for three years at Moscow State University, once studied in detail in the school library during the Russian-Chechen War, about the bloody Grosz that was so bloody that it shocked the whole world. detailed information on the street fighting in Nepal, and also made a detailed summary of the self-examination made by the Russian military and the comments made by relevant military scholars.

Malashenko, who has all the memories of his past lives stored in his mind, is much more proficient in urban street fighting routines than the German soldiers who have just learned to adapt to this special battle in the new era.

The set of infantry-tank coordinated street fighting siege tactics that Malashenko is currently ordering is a valuable experience gained by the Russian army after paying the bloody price of tens of thousands of soldiers killed in the Grozny street fighting.

At the same time, the extremely cunning Vietnamese monkeys are much smarter in this kind of tactics of hammer and stick than the Germans who have just entered the field of street fighting.

Malashenko, who learned almost all the tricks of the Vietnamese monkeys from his father, is well aware of any countermeasures that the German army may take at the moment.

How to use the strong advantages in his hands to overcome the weak weaknesses in his opponent's hands is very clear to Malashenko at this moment.

Looking through his commander's periscope at the blazing buildings still wailing on both sides of the street, Malashenko, who had been keeping his casualties to a minimum since the beginning of the war in the city, couldn't help but raise his lips.

"Come on, German soldiers, let me see with my own eyes how long your iron will can last under the encroachment of flames."
