When infantry fight tanks, they have to take great risks. During the period when infantry approach tanks, that is, when infantry are most dangerous, many infantry fall on this road.

Germany, in particular, has long summed up a set of playing methods. When their tanks advance, the infantry combat vehicles are behind, and they can unload infantry at any time to protect their wings.

If the infantry wanted to fight them, they would face the machine guns of tanks, the machine guns of infantry combat vehicles and the submachine guns in the hands of German infantry. In the rain of bullets, many lives of Soviet infantry were sacrificed in vain.

Now, it's a good opportunity.

German tanks did not form an attack queue. They were a long snake array. At the same time, they had no infantry on both sides. Those screw cars ran to chase the artillery position.

An array like Germany can't fight at all. It's easy to be close and can't form cross fire.

The trap of Soviet infantry will make the Germans suffer a lot.

They don't have to move. When the German tanks stopped, they were 20 or 30 meters away. They had been waiting for a long time. Some even suspected that their ears were broken. Why didn't they give the order?

They are death squads. Everyone has the belief that they will die, because they know that once they start attacking, they can't go back alive.

They can't move in the swamp. They can only step on the trunk falling into the swamp and come towards the road here. Their anti tank Grenades can't clean up the German tanks. Even if there is one left, the tank machine gun will eliminate them.

However, they are still fearless and trade their lives for each other's tank. It's worth it!

In fact, they had already suffered losses when they were young.

When the howitzer was fired, although it had been accurately aimed, some shells missed, and some of them fell to their hiding place.

No one can survive. Once a 152 mm grenade explodes nearby, this person will also be killed. Their bodies were wrapped in mud and flew up. On the battlefield, they were not noticed.

If they are unfortunate, they are lucky. For example, the German screw cars turn in advance to avoid their hiding place. Otherwise, those screw cars will stir them into meat sauce.

Now, these death squads who are determined to die raise their hands and start throwing their own anti tank grenades.

Their grenades are also diverse. Some directly bind several grenades together, even cluster grenades, hoping to use more explosives to blow up each other's armor.

Others hold hand grenades that many people have never seen before. This is the latest anti tank grenade developed by the Soviet Union. In later generations, it was named rpg-43. RPG here is not a rocket launcher, but an abbreviation of hand-held anti tank grenade.

With the strength of German armored forces, the Soviet Union felt great pressure. While increasing their tank production and R & D, they were also considering the anti tank problem of individual soldiers.

After all, it is quite urgent for ordinary soldiers to have the ability of anti tank. In this regard, the United States has given great support and provided the principle of energy accumulation effect to the Soviet Union. According to this principle, the Soviet Union has made the current anti tank grenade.

In fact, the energy accumulation effect is not a secret. As early as 1888, American Monroe discovered the energy accumulation effect in the explosive test, so it is also known as the "Monroe effect".

However, I didn't know what this could do. Until 1930, wood further improved Monroe's experiment and inlaid a metal cover on the surface of the conical cavity of the grain, which could greatly enhance the armor piercing ability. The principle is that when the hollow grain with conical hole explodes, the energy is highly concentrated along the axial direction of the grain and can penetrate a very thick steel plate.

Later, the Swiss mastered this technology. In order to sell this technology, a group of Swiss experts organized a new anti tank explosive performance test, and specially invited the British military attache in Switzerland to watch.

As a result, the British were too expensive. At the same time, the British military attache specially invited explosion experts from Woolwich Arsenal in London to Switzerland to watch. As a result, he saw through the door.

After Britain was conquered by Germany, these explosion experts moved to the United States, and the United States mastered these technologies.

In order to help the Soviet Union fight against German tanks, the United States provided these principles, but did not tell the Soviet Union more core things. However, for the Soviet people, it was only necessary to know their ideas.

The present anti tank grenade is the first anti tank grenade in the world using the principle of hollow charge.

However, the design of its liner is not reasonable, so it mainly depends on large charge to ensure the armor breaking effect.

For Soviet technicians, it is the most basic common sense that the power is not enough. This grenade is equipped with 612 grams of TNT explosive, and the total bomb mass is 1200 grams( How heavy is it? Just compare it. The most common wooden handle grenade is 600g. It is twice as much as an ordinary grenade!)

In this case, its armor breaking depth is 75mm, which is certainly not good for dealing with the front of the Tiger tank, but if dealing with the rear armor of the Tiger tank, it will be no problem at all.

Moreover, because the German tank troops formed a long snake array, some Panther 3 tanks behind fell into the ambush range of the Soviet Union.

They are death squads. If they can't be used without them, rokosovsky won't use them. If the German tanks have been beaten almost by his own side, it would be icing on the cake to let the death squads come out. But now, once the death squads are used, they will almost lose both sides.

Kolov's body was full of mud. He felt that many of his skin was itching. There were many blood sucking leeches in the swamp. Hiding here, his body would soon be sucked dry by the leeches.

Everyone was in such a situation. Before entering the swamp, they tightened their cuffs and trouser legs, but there were still leeches staring up on their hands and faces, and some even bit their clothes and went inside.

When he stood up, he still had two leeches hanging in front of his face. But kolov didn't care. The moment he stood up, he opened the pull ring of his grenade, raised his hand and wanted to throw the grenade out.

At this time, he felt his hand slip. Suddenly, his heart sank. It was not good!
