This is by far the most difficult mission of the entire game. You will have to be extremely careful while exploring the area, because you'll be surrounded by enemy troops for most of the time. I would recommend securing some of the areas alone, because you would have to spend too much time trying to protect your men from danger, rather than use their abilities in combat. You start standing behind a large truck. Order your men to suppress the Germans and then lead at least group towards the first target (2 on the map) [#238].

#238

Enemy soldiers are hiding to the north of your current position. You can kill them by aiming at them from a longer distance or you can get closer and hide next to a burning truck. If you decide to get closer, you must make sure that your men will suppress your enemies, so they won't have a chance to attack you [#239].

#239

Don't leave this area, even when you take care of the first group of German soldiers. The reason for that is a quite obvious one - new enemy soldiers have appeared in the area and you must plan what to do next. The toughest group occupies the western field (2 on the map). You can't get to them, so you'll have to take them out from a larger distance [#240]. You could use grenades here, however rifle seems like a better idea, because you would have to be very precise.
