You need a regular leader (with modifier) and an infantry (or other non-tank DF unit) and a tank with a tank leader in the first hex. The you need a an infantry (or other non-tank DF unit) and a tank in the second hex. The tanks then combine their DF factors with the infantry (units of the same fire type in a hex may always combine), who then combine with the leader.
But can the tanks in the 2nd hex combine? A tank leader doesn't have a combat bonus so can't combine more then one hex and I'm unsure if the +1 inf leader can combine with tanks in the 2nd hex.
So I guess the best you could do is 1 inf with a +2 combat bonus and 2 tanks in one hex and then 2 stacks of 3 inf next to them in 2 hexes all combine?
