Chapter 1733

"Boom!"

One after another, German tanks drove out of their positions and headed towards the US positions. These tanks include not only the huge 'King Tiger' heavy tank, but also the 'Tiger' heavy tank and the 'Black Panther' medium tank as the main force.

3 army groups, 15 armored divisions, 17 armored divisions, 34 mechanized infantry divisions. This is undoubtedly a very large armored force. In order to tear apart the U.S. defense line in one fell swoop, the three German army groups invested a third of their armored forces on the defense line of more than 100 kilometers in the north and northeast of Washington. The other two-thirds of the armored forces are also ready to replace the front troops at any time. Ensure that in this attack, the German armored force can become the main force and break through the US defense line in one fell swoop.

"Quick, get into position. The Germans are attacking!"

Countless low-level US military officers beat and kicked the surviving soldiers and drove them to the front line like cattle. I hope to use the flesh and blood of these soldiers to resist the German attack.

"God, there are so many tanks and armored vehicles." After seeing the torrent of steel made up of a large number of German tanks and armored vehicles, the American soldiers started their terrified legs one by one. Those who are timid are almost scared to pee.

"Damn it, pull up the anti-tank guns, anti-tank bazooka at the ready, and kill the German tanks. Otherwise, we will all be crushed to pieces by the Germans!"

A door of anti-tank guns was pulled up. These anti-tank guns were hidden before to avoid air strikes by the Luftwaffe. The German army has a strong armored force, especially the "King Tiger" heavy tank, which caused a great shock to the US military and frightened them enough. This also caused the U.S. military to assemble a large number of anti-tank weapons during the Battle of Washington, hoping to use this to make up for the lack of its own armor, thereby resisting the German attack.

In the tank battles again and again, the U.S. military has fully realized the gap between them and the Germans. Even the most advanced M26 tank is still vulnerable to German tanks. Coupled with the gap in the quality of the armored forces, this makes the US armored forces have no chance of winning in front of the German armored forces.

"Da da da!"

Fighter planes of the Luftwaffe appeared on the battlefield. A wing of TA-152 fighters, covering a wing of dive bombers and a wing of ground attack aircraft rushed to the battlefield. These fighters hovered in the air, and sometimes they found targets on the ground and began to attack. Aviation machine guns, machine guns and bombs have all become sharp weapons against these US ground targets.

"boom!"

A dive bomber dropped a heavy aerial bomb on a U.S. firepower point. The entire firepower point was destroyed in the explosion, leaving a huge crater on the ground.

The fighter planes of the Luftwaffe rushed ahead of the German armored forces and took the lead in attacking. These firepower from the sky made the US troops on the ground miserable.

Although some anti-aircraft artillery and anti-aircraft machine guns of the US military began to fight back, their counterattacks were often useless. Instead, it was even more violently retaliated by the Luftwaffe. Air defense positions were constantly being strafed or bombed, and the losses of the U.S. air defense forces skyrocketed.

German helicopters also flew in to join in the fun. Whether it is an armed helicopter or a general-purpose helicopter, they all began to attack the US military positions with the greatest firepower to cover the attack of their own ground forces.

"Shhhhhh!"

Rockets were launched crazily, and a section of the US military position was directly burned into a sea of ​​flames.

"Da da da!"

A helicopter skimmed over a section of the U.S. defense line, and the bullets from heavy machine guns blasted dust into the trenches. Several American soldiers were beaten into sieves and fell into the trenches screaming.

The German ground troops have not yet rushed to the U.S. positions, but the U.S. troops on the positions have already suffered heavy losses under the attack of the German Air Force and helicopter groups. Under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly more difficult to resist the attack of the German ground forces.

"My God! Where's our Army Air Corps? If we don't fight again, this battle will never go on." The officers and soldiers on the front line complained. They not only had to stop the German ground forces, but also guard against the enemy in the air, which undoubtedly caused their casualties to rise rapidly.

Admiral Marshall also discovered the situation on the front line, so he had to order the Army Air Force, which had few fighter planes left, to dispatch.

General Henry Arnold had no choice but to order the Army Air Force to take off to fight.

Hundreds of U.S. P-47 fighter jets and P-51 fighter jets appeared on the battlefield, which forced the Luftwaffe to divide its forces to deal with these fighter jets of the U.S. Army Air Forces. The bombers and helicopters also retreated one after another. Otherwise, they will become the target of the fighter jets of the US Army Air Forces. This also made the US troops on the ground breathe a sigh of relief.

However, even without air support. It is also very difficult for the US military on the ground to resist the German attack.

"boom!"

A 'King Tiger' tank opened fire at a long distance. A 105mm artillery shell hit a U.S. machine gun firepower point, blowing up the machine gun firepower point.

Other German tanks are also firing. All exposed firepower points of the US military, including anti-tank firepower points, were eliminated one by one.

The German armored forces also suffered some losses during the offensive. But overall, the losses are very limited.

"call out!"

A bazooka flew towards a German tank fifty meters away. This is a 'Black Panther' tank. At this time, the 'Black Panther' tank did not realize the threat was coming.

"boom!"

The rocket hit the flank of the Panther tank. The armor was penetrated, and the metal jet killed the tank soldiers inside in an instant. The tank lost control and stopped in place.

But before the U.S. rocket launcher had time to launch a second rocket, it was sieved by the infantry following the German tanks.

"Crunch, crunch!"

The tracks of the tank rolled over the ground, making a tooth-piercing sound. For American soldiers, this is even more frightening.

"Da da da!"

A heavy machine gun was firing crazily, trying to suppress the German soldiers fighting behind the tank.

"boom!"

A shell fired by a tank hit the fire point of the machine gun, and the heavy machine gun was directly blown into parts.

Under the assault of the German armored forces, the American position did not last long before being torn apart by the Germans.
