Once You obtain control over Preston, follow Sarge's instructions. Look up, then look down. If the controls are fine, press [A]. Now move forward - jump over the rock and then crouch under the damaged car.
Sweetwater will advise You to heal Yourself. Grab Your Auto Injector and make an injection.
Now it's time for some shooting practice. Destroy all the red barrels in the vicinity. Reload Your weapon and approach the ammo crate (You'll find it next to Haggard).
Now let's use the grenade launcher. Shoot one grenade at the nearby building's wall. Then enter the building through the hole You just made and take the Power Tool. It allows You to repair any friendly or empty vehicle. Use it to repair the Hum-Vee locater nearby.
Now get behind the wheel and drive forward, towards the enemy artillery position. Once You reach the roadblock, get out and proceed on foot. You'll reach two houses - You'll meet Your first enemies there. Finish all three soldiers patrolling this location and then go through one of the buildings (it's the left one on screenshot below). Move towards the artillery.
Just move forward and shoot all soldiers You encounter; You don't have to blow up the guns, just win all the gunfights. Once You kill the last enemy here, a cut-scene will turn on. When it's over, go use one of the artillery guns - You need it to eliminate all incoming forces - infantry and light-armored vehicles. Moreover, You have to watch where You're shooting, as there are friendly units nearby. There'll be a lot of opponents, but they shouldn't be a problem if You target the area they're right about to enter. As You may know, shells need some time to fall on the ground.
When You finish all the bad guys, move to Your next objective. You must get Yourself a new vehicle and actually there is one standing not so far from here. The problem is, when You approach it, an enemy car will arrive. This is why You have to quickly jump in the vehicle, grab the mounted .50 cal machine gun and destroy the Russian vehicle.
Your car will be surely damaged - use Your Power Tool to repair it. Once You restore its full 'health', move forward towards the village - the one You just attacked with artillery.
Pass by friendly forces and proceed to Your next objective. You'll reach a single white building. Get out and check what's inside. You'll find there XM8 assault rifle - the first of four collectables in this mission. Get back to the car and move forward.
You'll reach an enemy camp. Eliminate all opponents with the gun mounted on Your car, and then walk or drive into the compound.
There are two machine gun emplacements on the other end of the camp. Sweetwater will man one of them, Your have take care about the second.
A light tank will arrive soon, but shortly after that, a friendly chopper will take it out. Make sure nobody is trying to shoot You and go regroup with Your group. Just approach the red smoke to do it.
A cut-scene will turn on. Once it's over, get into the Russian vehicle and move forward.
