Turn 9 Start - Multiple Breakouts

We cleared the initial minefields last turn in most areas due to wide front enemy arty was only a minor issue as spread thin.
We should break out of the last area this turn but the squad that tried took serious fire as marked & lost 7 men so aborted.
Turns out this area is heavily defended there were 8 squads within 5 hexes of the push - heck.
Apart from that we have only lost 8 men plus 1 damaged Halftrack, 6 to mines & 1 to wire I think as couple of squads sped up clearing.
Soviets have lost 7 squads & a HMG we are facing Regular & Guard units but have come across no AT assets yet.

Overview

Main push is to take out marked AA & 2 Mortars so the spotter can fly again, it received more dangerous 37mm fire on that last pass so its side lined for now.
Ignoring map bottom heading for VHexes we can deal with them when they counter attack.
We have moved up around half our artillery so Vhexes are in range.

The action

A - Break out here was easiest light on mines & units, seems clear possibly more mines at next buildings. Otherwise straight forward kill one squad take position on other then into buildings.

B - Again simple pretty sur no mines where shown so move adjacent to kill both squads before finishing the squad for A next go.

C - Err hard going to put it mildly, the lower units have broken out -
Initial one shown following the routing unit was aborted, no mines but at least another hidden squad down there.
Flame HT helped the initial push & is positioned to help the units above exit, the amount of firepower they are about to lay down should produce easy pickings.

Need to be wary moving against the rear squad routers revealed more mines.
So far we have been lucky no vehicle has entered a hex that a squad has only to find it missed the mines.

Looking like the Russians have 2 lines of defence the 2nd defending the VHex clusters.
Things could get exiting when we cross the next road if all its AT assets are deployed there rather than spread about hopefully without the odd mine in the mix.
