| search ground | поражать местность (Enfilade fire by itself was neutralized by traverses (q.v.) in the defences, but by the new method a shot could be so aimed as to skip over each successive traverse and thus to search ground that was immune from direct fire. • This will cause the cone of fire to search ground in rear of the enemy's position, which may be occupied by his supports and reserves.) |
