The Soviet soldier huddled up, letting the narrow tracks of the German assault gun run over his head.

Pieces of soil that fell from the tracks hit the Soviet army's steel helmet, making a clanging sound.

Before the assault guns could completely cross the trenches, the Soviet anti-tank group who had been waiting there abruptly stood up from both sides of the German tanks.

What they were holding in their hands was a specially made grenade with asphalt, which could be stuck to the tank's armor by slamming it hard.

The specially made grenade then explodes, destroying the tank's tracks, piercing the tank's weak side armor, and killing the behemoths.

The Soviet anti-tankmen, resigned to death, rose to their feet and glued their bombs to the tank's side skirts.

While they were sticking the bombs, they were swept down with submachine guns by the German infantry behind the No. 3 assault gun.

The fallen Soviet anti-tank bombers were sieved by bullets, and then spread out into the trenches where they stood up.

As they fell, the anti-tank grenade stuck to the side of the tank also exploded, breaking the track of the No. 3 assault gun.

The German soldiers who followed the assault gun also staggered and injured many people because of the explosion.

The tank that lost the track can still move forward a short distance by inertia. The broken track fell down due to gravity, part of it fell into the trench, and part of it was piled up in front of the tank.

Then, because of the suspension and gravity, the road wheel that had lost its restraint dangled slightly above the trench.

The entire assault gun was paralyzed at the edge of the trench, unable to take another step forward. The Soviet troops in the trenches rejoiced and prepared to fight with the advancing German troops.

On either side of the second German tank crossing the trench, suddenly two similar anti-tank men also stood up.

These anti-tankmen carried bombs and wandered in the trenches. Whenever there were German tanks and armored vehicles that were about to cross the trenches, they rushed there to stop the German tanks.

However, behind this German tank, there are more infantry and more combat experience.

When approaching the trenches, taking advantage of the moment the Soviets avoided the tanks, they dispersed from behind the tanks, occupied favorable terrain, and aimed their muzzles at the trenches in front of the tanks.

When the Soviet anti-tank bombards just showed their heads, they greeted the two uninvited guests with their weapons.

The two Soviet bombardiers had just stood up to stick grenades to the sides of the tank when they were hit into a sieve by the bullets.

The two German No. 3 assault guns continued to move forward, and the German troops behind it took the opportunity to break into the trenches of the Soviet soldiers.

In trench warfare, automatic weapons are several times more powerful than manual bolt weapons. So when the German army pushed the battle site to the vicinity of the trenches, the disadvantage of the Soviet troops was already revealed.

The Soviet army, lacking anti-tank weapons, spent most of the time watching German tanks and armored vehicles wreaking havoc on their positions.

And in the close quarters, the German army with a large number of automatic weapons is also stronger than the Soviet army.

"Get on the bayonet!" In the trenches, a Soviet political commissar with a revolver shouted loudly.

The soldiers around him drew their bayonets from their waists and inserted them into the front end of the Mosin Nagant rifle.

And waiting for them is not the bayonet of the German soldiers, but the German grenadiers with MP-40 submachine guns.

In the trenches, they looked up at the German soldiers with automatic weapons overhead, shouting in despair, and rushing towards the enemy in front of them.

Of course, the Germans were not polite, and fired a round into the trenches before jumping into the trenches. The rest of the Soviet army was not even one in ten, and there was no combat power at all.

On the Soviet position, a white smoke suddenly appeared, and an anti-tank gun hidden on the side opened fire suddenly, and one shot hit an advancing No. 3 assault gun.

Probably because of the angle, the shell did not penetrate the side armor of the tank after hitting a hole in the side skirt.

So the No. 3 assault gun was still moving forward slowly, as if it had not been attacked at all.

"Load the shells! Prepare for the next shot!" The commander of the Soviet anti-tank gun clenched his fists and ordered loudly despite the bullets flying past him.

The lightly wounded Soviet soldiers were responsible for carrying the shells. They carried the 45mm shells and placed them behind the loader.

The origin of this kind of artillery is also related to Germany. At that time, it was the honeymoon period of Sud. The Soviet Union introduced the German pak-36 37mm caliber anti-tank gun, which is the artillery nicknamed the stepping stone.

The introduced pak-36 was named the M1930 gun in the Soviet Union. Shortly after the M1930 37mm gun was finalized, the Soviet military immediately instructed the No. 8 factory to improve it to increase power and facilitate mass production.

So a Soviet copycat version appeared: this artillery retained the M1930 mount and shield, replaced with a 45mm caliber barrel and a simple aiming device, and was very similar to the German Pak36 in appearance. In March 1932, the gun passed the test and was finalized as the M1932 anti-tank gun.

As soon as the M1932 was delivered to the troops, many problems were exposed. For example, the wooden gun wheel used to save costs has poor road passability, and the wheel axle has no suspension device, so the speed is low when driving; the position of the firing device moved after changing the aiming device is unreasonable, which is inconvenient for the gunner to open the gun and the locking mechanism cannot be realized. Semi-automatic, low rate of fire...

And these are not the most deadly, the most deadly is that the penetration ability of this artillery is insufficient, and it can no longer destroy most German tanks and armored vehicles.

It's just that the Soviet Union's advanced anti-tank gun production capacity has always been a problem. Even the poor 76.2mm caliber artillery ~lightnovelpub.net~ cannot meet the production needs of anti-tank guns because of the priority of supplying T-34 tanks.

Therefore, until this time, the most used anti-tank guns in the Soviet front line were the M1932 and the M1937.

It is very dangerous to operate this type of artillery on anti-tank missions, because the gunners have to wait for the German tanks to get very close before they dare to fire and try to attack.

When firing the second time, the angle of the Soviet anti-tank gun was trickier. The shell penetrated the side armor of the No. 3 assault gun, destroying the German armored vehicle.

As a result, before the Soviet gunners were excited about their own record, a 75mm caliber artillery shell that avenged its companions flew over and blasted the anti-tank guns and all the surrounding Soviet troops into the sky.

In the distance, a No. 3 assault gun with a muzzle still smoking light continued to move forward, ran over the Soviet position, and rushed into the position of the Soviet defenders with the infantry behind him.
