Soon after, as the No. 403 car took the lead in firing a shell, the shell exploded near the enemy's position. The enemy's machine gun paused for a moment, and then started ringing again a few seconds later...
As the 47mm high-explosive bombs exploded on the position one after another, the Maxim heavy machine gun on the enemy's position also misfired. Li Qing looked through the periscope and saw that the Maxim heavy machine gun on the enemy's position was no longer in its original position. I don’t know if it was removed or damaged.
Seeing a few enemies retreating from their positions to the rear, Li Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The first step into the canyon was finally completed.
"Turning the bend in front, there is an open area in the canyon. Wait for the infantry to enter first. Pay attention to concealment, expand the reconnaissance to the left and right, and pay attention to the enemy's firepower points I pointed out before. We will follow you, and we will gain a firm foothold first. Also, be careful of the enemy's sniper, there is no need to hide your head!" Li Qing directed the infantry next to him to carry out the next step of the battle.
Seeing that there was nothing abnormal after the infantry in front went deep, Li Qing commanded Monkey to drive Type I and C to take the lead in following up.
The landforms in the canyon were finally exposed before Li Qing's eyes. He couldn't tell anything when looking at the system map before, but now he finally knew what was wrong before. The ground in the canyon was too empty, as if it had been specially cleaned. , an individual soldier can still barely find some bunkers. For a big guy like a tank, there is almost no place to hide. Even the slightly larger trees have been cut down. If you rush in with a hot head, how much will it cost? How many of them are exposed to the enemy as living targets!
He quickly said into the microphone: "The team stops advancing and goes back! This canyon is a trap! The enemy is waiting for us to get in!"
The monkey also realized something was wrong, so he quickly shifted into reverse gear and prepared to go back.
At this time, the system's loli voice suddenly came to my ears: "Warning, there is artillery attack! Warning, there is artillery attack!"
Li Qing raised her head and stared at the live scene on the screen in front of her. A phantom arc was displayed in front of her eyes. This was the trajectory of the enemy's shelling. She quickly shouted at the monkey: "Back up! Back up! There's a shelling!"
The monkey stepped on the accelerator, the tank engine roared loudly, and the exhaust pipe at the rear of the vehicle spewed out a large amount of black smoke. Type I and C rushed backward like a beast.
"Boom!" There was an explosion, and the shell exploded at the position where Type I and C had just stopped. It was now about ten meters away. The power of the explosion was not great, but Li Qing still broke out in a cold sweat.
The tank driven by the monkey finally retreated into the corner of the cliff, causing the three No. 1 tank destroyers behind to panic and almost causing a series of car accidents!
The reversing speed of the Panzer I tank destroyer was impressive. When the monkey braked and stopped, it was less than 50 centimeters away from the gun barrel of the tank destroyer No. 178, which was following the front. Hilmer, the commander of the tank destroyer No. 178, turned even paler and his eyes were dull. He stared at the rear of the Type I and C car, and then gasped for air, looking like he was overly frightened!
Artillery shells were still exploding one after another outside the cliff. The target should be the infantry who came forward, but at this time, they couldn't care about the infantry in front. There was no way to notify them, so they could only count on them to take care of themselves.
Li Qing and Monkey sat in the tank for a while and finally regained their energy. They opened the top cover of the turret and got out half of the body. They spoke loudly to the rest of the team: "This corner is blocked by enemy fire inside. There is nothing we can do." Go in, you’ll be a target when you go in, let’s stop for a moment and think of a solution, this won’t work!”
Everyone was silent after hearing this, thinking hard about what to do. No one expected to encounter such a situation before entering the canyon!
At this time, the monkey opened the cab roof, popped his head out, and said loudly to Li Qing a little impatiently: "If you ask me... what are you thinking about? We can fight at an angle!"
Li Qing was stunned when he heard this. This is a fighting method in the game. It is actually similar to the principle of individual soldiers fighting in street fighting. Li Qing doesn't know much about street fighting, only some superficial knowledge.
To sum up, the street fighting at this time mainly focuses on three key points:
First, control the main roads. Whoever controls the main road is equivalent to controlling the opponent's battle space, controlling the opponent's scope of action, limiting the opponent's attack route and retreat route, controlling the opponent's communication and coordination, etc. There is no way to say this now. The road has been controlled by the enemy, making it impossible to advance or retreat...
Second, control the commanding heights. The reason why street fighting is complicated is mainly because the field of vision is limited and you cannot see a large area. Therefore, the commanding heights in street fighting are particularly precious. The party who controls the commanding heights not only has a regional vision, but also has the ability to suppress the area. Therefore, the battle for the commanding heights between the two warring parties is often the most fierce. If they cannot obtain it, razing it to the ground is the best way. There is no way to consider this. The enemy has been operating in the canyon for a long time, and even the larger rocks on the ground have been cleared. The shot just now was obviously fired from the hillside in the canyon.
Third, control strong buildings. In street fighting, a fortress-like building often affects the direction of the local battle. When defending, it is a nail and a battlefield meat grinder. When attacking, it will become a support and a forward base.
Among the three key points, Li Qing's team only managed to get a handle on the last one. This protruding cliff blocked the road, forcing the road into the canyon to turn a corner here, which gave the tank team something to maneuver. There is no room for anything to be done.
It shouldn’t be difficult to operate in practice. As long as you are careful, you can achieve your combat goals!
The other members of the team were confused after hearing this, and they were confused about the angle. What kind of strategy was this? Never heard of it!
Li Qing frowned and looked at the confused people. It was normal for the tank soldiers to have not received infantry training. He and Monkey had only mastered this skill in the game. It was really unclear how effective it would be in reality.
Fortunately, there are still a lot of infantry here that haven't gone out. Find an experienced infantryman to demonstrate the street fighting skills. It's not impossible to apply street fighting techniques to tanks. Even if it's just a lesson to sharpen your guns before the battle, the effect shouldn't be too bad!
Li Xiaolei shouted to the shocked team members: "Well... everyone in the tank team, come and assemble!"
Then he shouted to a soldier not far away: "Soldier, who has the highest rank among you now? Call him here."
There was a sudden uproar among the team members, and they hurriedly came to the cliff and stood in a hasty row against the cliff. The nine people in the group looked at Li Qing in silence, waiting for instructions from the major commander.
At this time, a soldier in his thirties ran not far away and hurriedly came to Li Qing and saluted: "Hello, sir, Sergeant Major Zalmut of the 3rd Platoon of Company B is reporting to you!"
