The buildings in Zulafka village are distributed in a half-moon shape, with the sunken side facing north.

Tracking the retreating German infantry, the Soviet infantry and tank troops burst into smoke and dust and rushed straight to Zulafka village, but they didn't know that they were diving into the preset trap.

Unlike the northeast corner at the front line of the battlefield, the northwest corner of Zulafka Village was originally at the back of the front line and was relatively calm, but at this time, dense sounds of gunfire suddenly burst out.

mg-c/30 type 20mm l65 anti-aircraft guns were flattened and fired wildly at the right wing of the Soviet infantry and Tank cluster. The 20mm shells hit the Soviet infantry and flesh and blood, either cut in half or were shot in the head. Every body that died under the anti-aircraft guns was incomplete.

The 75mm armor-piercing projectile flew out, pointing directly to the exposed body of the Soviet tank on the right side. Almost every crisp gun sound, a tank was hit.

In the northeast corner of the village, Captain Rabin commanded his troops to shoot machine gun bullets and armor-piercing projectiles at the enemy.

The Soviet infantry and tanks, trapped in a half-moon encirclement, were attacked by cross-fire from the left and right wings, were suddenly in chaos. The momentum of the defeated soldiers who had just pursued the German army was swept away, and there was panic everywhere. I didn't know which side of the firepower they should deal with first.

At the bottom of the half-moon, Captain Muller of the anti-aircraft artillery company was carrying an assault rifle and wandering in the village buildings, intercepting batches of retreating defeated soldiers.

"This is the last line of defense, no step back..."

Captain Muller's roar, his ferocious face, and his stg42 assault rifle dispelled the fear of the defeated soldiers, drove them into broken buildings, or piles of rubble, and behind dense bushes, and entered the battle again, facing the Soviet army that was in chaos.

The slow KV-85 heavy tank was reversing quickly, trying to get out of this dangerous situation of being flicked from the left and right sides, but did not notice the soldiers lying behind the tank.

Captain Rabin saw with his own eyes a Soviet infantry could not dodge and was crushed by a kv-85 heavy tank that was quickly reversing, but could not pull it out. He screamed and was dragged into the bottom of the car by the tracks, and then was run over in the waist.

Even between about two hundred meters, he seemed to be able to hear the sound of the Soviet soldier's bones being crushed to pieces with his own ears.

The pak40 anti-tank gun beside him fired again, and the armor-piercing projectile hit the middle of the left side of the tank. A few seconds later, a shell shot shot hit the front of the left side of the vehicle again, causing the tank to completely lose its ability to escape.

The Soviet infantry and Tan Group, which were seduced by the defeated soldiers into the half-moon ambush circle, were killed and injured, and the infantrymen who were located at the back turned around and fled.

Almost at the same time, two reinforcements arrived one after another in the northwest and northeast directions of Zulafka Village.

In the northwest, the troops of the No. 3 Assault Battalion under the First Infantry Division of the Honorable Jews were arrived.

The No. 3 assault gun of two companies was G-shaped, carrying infantrymen to detour the west of Zulafka Village and joined the battlefield from the northwest.

The infantry jumped off the No. 3 assault gun and followed the assault gun to face the Soviet army that had broken through the northern position of Zulafka Village.

The Soviet reserve team was sent to the northeast to expand the results of the battle after learning that the frontline battle had made progress.

A Su-122 self-propelled artillery regiment followed more than 20 T-34 tanks and entered the battlefield with the support of an infantry battalion, trying to expand the breakthrough, but encountered the No. 3 assault gun, and the tank battle broke out immediately.

When supporting infantry attacking enemy positions, the No. 3 assault gun was an offensive weapon. During tank warfare, the No. 3 assault gun transformed into a defensive weapon, relying on its low body and fierce artillery to face the enemy's tanks head-on.

The kv-85 heavy tank and the t-34 tank finally found their equal opponents and quickly turned the gun to face the sudden appearance of the enemy.

Armor-piercing missiles flew across the battlefield, and black smoke quickly rose from the destroyed chariots in the battle formations of both sides.

Following behind the T-34 tank, the vulgar black gun Su-122 successfully pulled the battlefield balance.

During the fierce battle between the No. 3 assault gun and the T-34 tank, 122mm armor-piercing bombs flew out one after another from the rear of the T-34 tank group, ignoring the tilted front armor of the No. 3 assault gun, smashing through the body of the vehicle, and drilling into the No. 3 assault gun vehicle for secondary killing.

All of his attention was attracted by the KV-85 and T-34 tanks. The No. 3 assault gunners did not notice the existence of the Su-122 self-propelled artillery. In an instant, three assault guns were destroyed by the 122mm cannon.

The rolling black smoke flutters with the wind, pointing toward the sky.

In the center of the battlefield, in Zulafka Village, after eliminating the Soviet army that broke into the half-moon ambush circle, Captain Rabin left the anti-tank gun position and hid behind the broken wall of a house to check the situation on the battlefield outside the village, but quickly retracted his eyes because he found out from the corner of his eyes that another Soviet army was rushing towards Zulafka Village from the northeast.

Our place is really the main attack area of ​​the Russians.

After finding the correspondent, Captain Rabin grabbed the Siemens cordless phone on the correspondent's back and shouted: "The enemy's tank is coming up again. We need artillery support. The closer the better."

After saying that, Captain Rabin raised his head and looked at the sky to the west with anticipation, but happened to see a tragic scene.

A fi-382 Black Hawk helicopter seemed to be hit by dense air defense firepower. A figure flew out from the left fuselage door and fell to the ground like a diving athlete. The plane took the fuselage as the axis, and the tail rotated at high speed, falling to the ground with a row of black smoke.

Staring at the location where the helicopter had been staying, Captain Rabin was stunned for a while before retracting his gaze.

He turned around and ran back to the position of the anti-tank gun that he had been staying in, shouting and relocating the position with other gunners to prepare for the next wave of enemies.

The anti-tank gun had just taken its place and was docked by the trunk of a willow tree that was thick with its waist. The enemy tanks had rushed into the minefield.

At this time, the minefield could no longer play a slight blocking effect. The fastest-running T-60 light tank rushed in the front and was soon targeted by anti-tank guns.

The crisp sound of cannon sounded again, and the armor-piercing bomb easily tore the front armor of a T-60 light tank and drilled into the vehicle's body.

Flames and black smoke ejected from the vehicle body along with the air waves, overturning the turret, and the vehicle body was torn apart by the explosion caused by ammunition.

Turning the gun port, another shell was fired, destroying another T-60 light tank. Before the smoke around the Pak40 anti-tank gun was dissipated, a 152mm caliber high-explosive bomb flew over and landed next to the anti-tank gun, hitting the willow trunk on the left side of the anti-tank gun.

The air waves and dust rose high, instantly swallowing the anti-tank gun position under the tree trunk. The willow tree with broken trunks fell to the ground.

The smoke of gunpowder dissipated, and the lodged willow trees pressed diagonally on the anti-tank gun, and four corpses were lying crookedly under the tree.

Captain Rabin shook his head with a buzzing ear, turned his eyes with two shadows in front of him, and tried to climb to a soldier pressed down by a tree branch.

It took Captain Rabin to drag the soldier out of the tree, and the two stumbled and retreated into the village behind.

The two of them had just turned over a collapsed house. Next to the lodged willow tree, Soviet infantry in yellow military uniforms ran past.

Under the third impact of the Soviet army, the northeast corner of Zulafka Village was lost, and the defenders were forced to retreat to the village to fight street battles.

The First Infantry Division was in danger in the defense near Zulafka Village. To the south of the front, a reinforcement from the Markyfka Village was advancing at high speed and heading to the battlefield.

Driven in the front SDKFZ251 armored vehicle, Major Bach said to Chen Dao worriedly: "Judging from the density of gunfire sounds in the distance, the battle there is very fierce, and it is very dangerous for us to go there at this time."

"We go there to end the battle. If the battle is not intense, there is no point in our going there."

"But we only have four tanks and one platoon of troops, so we can't do anything at all," said Major Bach.

Chen Dao said disapprovingly: "You are from the Air Force and don't understand land warfare. General Guderian said that at some point, a tank can guide a battle to win, not to mention that we now have the powerful forces of four tanks. Regarding land warfare, you, a layman, shouldn't interrupt."

Major Lorentz and others were sitting in the carriage looking at each other.

In any case, there seems to be no necessary connection between the word "four tanks" and the word "power". His Excellency the Governor's battlefield mania seems to have occurred again, so he should not be allowed to get close to the battlefield.
