Chapter 1349 General Attack 3
Chapter 1349 General Attack 3
The fastest armored vehicles and half-tracks equipped with large-caliber machine guns were hovering on both sides of the tank. They used flexible and fierce side firepower to cut through groups of Russian troops that were outflanking from both wings! An independent battle group probably consists of at least 1 company of tanks, about 10 vehicles carrying artillery, and no less than 20 armed trucks or half-tracks, and at least 2 battalions of infantry will be allocated. This efficient combined attack unit is as indestructible as the ancient heavy cavalry.
They easily crushed the Russian regiment-level positions one by one, and then took a short rest, waiting for their comrades behind to take over their positions, and then continued to advance. In this battle, the Russians also used their last possessions, although There is a lack of sufficient heavy artillery and long-range cannons, but a large number of 3-inch guns and various naval guns as well as fearless anti-tank fighters still have a certain impact on the German army, and this impact becomes greater the deeper it develops!
After easily turning a 3-inch rapid-fire cannon into a ball of fire and knocking down a machine gun group with a side-by-side machine gun, Rommel, who thought he was safe, drove his tank carefully across a trench, while not forgetting to use his vehicle. The signal light behind the tank notified the infantry to follow immediately. About two squads of infantry behind the tank were advancing honestly from both sides of the tank. They needed to leave room for the tank to retreat.
Under the guidance of about half a company of tanks, the Minotaur Battle Group successfully crushed today's third line of defense! The fourth line of defense is now being crossed.
"The combat artillery has been cleared! The infantry has caught up! You can continue to move forward!" After looking around at the surrounding situation through the command tower on the top of the vehicle, Rommel signaled his group to continue moving forward. And just as he was crossing two trenches in a row, there was suddenly a heavy burst of submachine gunfire from behind him! Then, a loud noise came through, and even inside the car body, you could clearly feel the collision feeling when the aftermath of the explosion hit the armor!
Just ten seconds ago, a small group of Russian troops rushed out of the hidden trench. They planned to conduct a sneak attack from the side. However, fortunately, even if the German squad hiding behind discovered the opponent, they rushed out of the trench before the opponent, and they fought hand-to-hand. In an instant, several submachine guns terminated the opponent's assault, beating each Russian assaulter to pieces! When the nearest one was killed, he was only 15 meters away from Rommel's tank! The explosives he was carrying exploded, and a thick column of smoke rose next to the tank!
"Everyone, be careful and look behind you!" Before Rommel could finish his words, several more columns of smoke rose up in the convoy, and the distinctive sharp sound of rapid-fire cannons being fired once again rang in their ears.
"Damn, this is a flanking position! The Russians are smart!" In an instant, Rommel realized the key to the problem... The Russians did not deploy all their artillery on the front. They used the terrain to set up positions on the sides and even behind!
A poorly positioned tank was directly penetrated by a 3-inch rapid-fire gun 200 meters away. The violent explosion detonated a 2-pound shell at the gun rim.
The ton-ton turret was directly lifted out of the turret, a burst of fire poured out from the breach, and the entire tank instantly turned into a burning iron box. The people inside looked like they were dying.
Faced with this situation, the high quality of the German army was immediately displayed. The grenadiers and tanks released smoke screens at the same time and began to shrink the defense line. The accompanying infantry immediately searched for the target, and then used machine guns to fire tracer bullets to indicate the target to other comrades!
On the right wing of the Minotaur battle group, a rapid-fire artillery company and an infantry company of Russian troops were relying on a flanking position to fire black guns.
"Group A responds to the enemy. Group B steps forward to guard!" The tanks of the two platoons changed directions instantly. Platoon A aimed the attack at the Russian flanking position, while Platoon B surpassed Platoon A and attacked on the principle flanking position. A cordon forms in front!
boom! A 107MM cannon shell successfully penetrated a gun nest from the side! Under the guidance of tracer bullets, the self-propelled artillery at the back quickly discovered the target, and easily knocked each civil formula to death with armor-piercing bullets! The medium-caliber cannon's huge penetrating power and straight trajectory have received praise from Everbright's German infantry! Then, the tanks of row A, which were alternately covering, also fired a series of 2-pound shells, and the staggered fire net covered each fire point.
Facing the absolutely superior firepower, the remaining Russians finally couldn't hold on anymore. They tried to escape along the hidden secret passage. When they just got out of the trench and prepared to evacuate to the rear, the Scorpions next to the Minotaur Battle Group The half-track vehicle of the battle group arrived just in time, amidst the roar of two 12.7MM machine guns. The remaining Russian troops were beaten to pieces, and after no gunfire was heard, the accompanying flamethrowers also approached the side attack position under the cover of machine guns, and fired several long bursts into the trench!
call! The raging fire dragon ran in the trench, easily burning everything it encountered. The explosions and heart-rending screams that came from time to time made ordinary people shudder, but for these veterans who had experienced too many fights, This is the prelude to victory. After combing the entire battlefield like a grate, the Minotaur and Scorpion battle groups continued to advance, replenishing ammunition and fuel from the half-track transport vehicle behind. There are more battles waiting for them ahead!
The Bavarian elites are also constantly adjusting tactics according to battlefield conditions. Some of the troops used for follow-up are organized into assault groups to make up for the lack of infantry. When the armored troops break through a line of defense, the infantry belonging to the battle group will Move to both sides, and quickly open up communication with neighboring battle groups by attacking the opponent's flanks. After controlling the battlefield, they will continue to move forward. Although the attack speed has slowed down, the entire legion will be like a steady steel mill. Everything he encountered was crushed and nothing was left!
"I feel that our troops have lost the speed of cavalry and are using tomahawks and heavy armor like heavy infantry to cut a passage through the enemy group!" Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Raul said to Prince Leopold. .
"This is normal, haven't you noticed? The so-called defense line now does not exist at all. The situation on the Western Front is reproduced here. The density of troops is extremely high. Hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops are crowded into a small area. , there are so many troops on both sides, even the so-called gaps between the battle lines are crowded with infantry, we can only grind them to death bit by bit like polishing stones!" Prince Leopold said helplessly.
