On a street in the outer city of Barcelona, dozens of National Army soldiers, led by several German soldiers, were slowly searching along the street.
"Hans, I hate street fighting!" A German soldier looked around nervously with a G41 semi-automatic rifle in his hand.
"I also hate street fighting." The German soldier named Hans held the MG34 machine gun in his hand and said to Fogel in German, "Especially with this group of useless Spaniards!"
"Alas." Fogel sighed, glanced at the group of Spanish soldiers behind him, and said, "The Spanish soldiers on the opposite side are stubborn, but the Spanish soldiers on our side are stupid to death. Why are the same Spaniards, the difference is only How big is it?"
"Oh, that's the question." Hans smiled. "Maybe it's because the Republican Army's territory is closer to France, while the National Army's territory is closer to the Italian African colonies?"
"Oh, God! You insulted our Italian teammates again!" Fogel said, "But to be honest, I think what you said is very reasonable."
"Hahaha." He teased his Italian teammates, which relieved their nervousness a lot.
"Boom!" Just as the two were chatting hotly, a shell suddenly flew over and smashed next to the team.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" the German squad leader who led the team shouted in Spanish, "Everyone hides!"
Under the urging of the squad leader, dozens of soldiers quickly dispersed and began to look for shelter on the spot.
"Hans! Fogel! Find a suitable place to build a machine gun position! Hoffmann! Find a suitable location yourself." After seeing everyone hiding, the squad leader began to give the next order, "Everyone else, damn it. , bullets can't hit you! Stick your head out and see where the son of a bitch Spaniard is!"
Hearing this, a group of National Army soldiers looked at the German squad leader with bewilderment.
"Oh, sorry, I'm not talking about you." The German squad leader said apologetically to the National Army soldiers, and then turned to German and muttered, "A bunch of idiots!"
"Damn it! Damn it! Where is the enemy?" Hans found a ruin, set up MG34, and asked nervously.
As the deputy shooter, Fogel also took on the responsibility of the ammunition operator. After he took out the machine gun bullets he was carrying, he raised his head and carefully searched for the enemy's trail, but found nothing.
"I don't know, I can't see them!" Fogel replied.
"Boom!" Another artillery shell struck. This shell was different from the previous one. After hitting the ground, it exploded, sending two National Army soldiers flying—it was a high-explosive grenade.
"Damn it! Has anyone seen it? Has anyone seen where the damn Republican Army is?" a German soldier shouted.
"There's so much smoke! I can't see it," another German soldier replied loudly.
"Hoffmann! Hoffmann!" the German squad leader shouted.
"Yes! Sir!" Hoffman, who was lying on a commanding height, replied.
"Look for the location of the Republican Army! There is so much smoke and dust on the ground that we can't see the direction of the attack!" The squad leader conveyed the order with the loudest voice, "Its first shell is armor-piercing, so it should be an anti-tank. Guns or a tank! Look for bigger ruins!"
"Understood, sir!" Hoffman, who understood the order, began to patiently search for the target with his sniper scope.
Hoffman is a precision marksman. Compared with the establishment of independent snipers, precision marksmen are usually organized in infantry squads and are served by the best soldiers in the squad.
Hoffman is armed with a G41-SG (SG is the German acronym for "Sharpshooter Rifle"), which is an improvement from the normal G41 with a heavier barrel and 4x optical aiming. Mirrors and tripods can accurately snipe targets at a distance of 600 meters.
Hoffman patiently searched every larger ruin, and finally, in a broken building 400 away from the team, Hoffman found his target - a Soviet-made T-26 tank.
"I've found you, baby!" Hoffman said with a chuckle. He also pressed a tracer bullet into the barrel of the gun, and then put a Republican soldier with the rank of sergeant on his shoulders in his sight.
"Bah!" With the sound of a gunshot, the tracer "drag" a green light and flew towards its target. The distance of 400 meters is just a split second for this light-pointed tracer with an initial velocity of 860M/.L'Spur. journey.
After 0.47 seconds, the tracer bullet precisely hit the sergeant's forehead, and then a mixture of brains, bones and helmet fragments drilled out from the back of the sergeant's head, leaving a huge hole.
Well, maybe it can't be called a "hole" without half of the skull.
"10 o'clock direction!" Under the instructions of the tracer bullet, the soldiers on the ground also found the Republican soldier and the T-26 hiding in the rubble.
"Sniper! In that building." The Republican soldiers in the ruins also found Hoffman based on tracer bullets.
Hoffman didn't stay too long, and after a successful hit, he quickly ran downstairs and looked for a new sniper location.
Half a minute later, the building where Hoffman was originally located was demolished to rubble by the 45mm high-explosive grenade fired by the T-26.
"Assault! Assault!" After understanding the opponent's position, the German squad leader quickly ran out of the bunker with his troops and charged towards the position of the Republican Army.
How could the Republican Army allow the opponent to easily rush in front of him? Armed with M1916 rifles known as "Spanish Mausers", they covered the street with intense fire.
However, this area has been bombed by the German army on a large scale, and there are ruins everywhere. The German army led the National Army to the left and right, and through the dense ruins, they did not suffer many casualties.
When rushing to a place less than 100 meters away from the T-26, the squad leader ordered everyone to stop and take cover on the spot, and then he crawled towards the T-26 with two anti-tank grenades.
"Fire cover! Fire cover!" The deputy squad leader took the command position of the squad leader and gave orders to everyone.
"Damn the Republican Army! My bullets will kiss your ass well, hahaha!" Hans set up the MG34 again, then pulled the trigger towards the Republican Army position while laughing.
MG34 has a terrifying rate of fire of 1000 rounds/S. A 100-round ammunition chain was fired in just 6 seconds, and the effect of the terrifying rate of fire was also terrifying. The MG34 directly pressed the Republican soldiers in the ruins. Can't look up.
The crew of the T-26 immediately turned the turret to where Hans was.
"Damn it!" Hans and Fogel saw the turret of the tank turn around, and hurriedly stopped shooting, and rolled off the land holding the MG34.
"Boom!" With a loud noise, the bunker where the two of them were originally disappeared, replaced by a smoking pit.
Just as the soldiers were trying to suppress the firepower of the Republican Army, the squad leader finally climbed close enough. He took out a "Type 1" anti-tank grenade, then pulled the safety off, grabbing the drag umbrella on the grenade handle like a throw. The discus spun it and threw it at the T-26, but unfortunately it didn't hit the T-26 as the squad leader had hoped.
