Chapter 779: Holy Angel's Sword II
The firepower of the rapid-fire guns formed a nearly continuous line of fire on the battlefield. The French gunners frantically vented their previous anger. One round was loaded into the barrel, and after a brief activation, it withdrew from the hot copper shells one after another. The shells fell into the formation of the German armored forces, and the smoke from the explosion even blocked these huge tanks. The French infantry rushed out of the trench with cheers. According to their previous experience, the tank had been destroyed. After the opponent was hit by a sudden fire at such a close distance, he would fall into a short-term "disabled" state. Normally this time When the brave French soldiers used the bayonet in their hands to teach the Germans how to behave.
Da Da Da, just as the French shouted and rushed out, the sound of tearing tarpaulin that had just paused sounded again, and the fire snakes of the machine guns of the German armored units easily nailed the French who rushed up in the first wave. On the ground, if those who rushed up in the second wave were lucky, they would still have a chance to crawl back into the trench and linger.
The German armored units deployed in cascades played a huge role at this moment. After the loss of the first row of tanks, the tanks behind can be replenished one by one. Of course, considering the powerful deterrence of the French 75MM rapid-fire gun, it is not only new. At the same time, the mortars and engineers behind them also began to release smoke to cover the armored units that were too far forward to retreat to a safe distance.
The thick smoke blocked the vision of both sides, and when the smoke dissipated, it was also the time when the French rapid-fire gun position was killed! Compared to tanks with armored defense and rapid mobility, once the battle defense gun positions are exposed, their survival time can already be calculated in seconds. There has never been a single bunker that cannot be defeated by artillery in this world. If there is, there will be more. How many send!
Poor straight positions made the French lack a position to deploy enough anti-aircraft guns, and when the German tanks returned to a distance of 500 meters, the French 75 rapid-fire guns could no longer do it!
"Focused fire on the opponent's flat-fire gun!" With the order, more than 20 tanks that spread out in a straight line sprayed flames at the enemy. In a very short time, flat-fire flat-fire shells and The mortar shells drawn arcs from the air successfully blasted the entire French flat-fire gun position into a sea of flames. And this also means that this French defense line has been breached. The tank roared through the wreckage and meat on the ground, leaving traces of blood-red tracks, while the infantry behind returned to the truck or other vehicle to continue advancing.
After crossing the middle zone of about 3 kilometers, Mike finally met the Frenchman’s second position. And this position has to be said that the deployment is very level. Using the terrain, the French not only deployed three companies of rapid-fire guns on the front, but also deployed flanking positions on the flanks. A natural pocket was formed, waiting for the Germans to jump into it.
"The first armored company continues to advance, and the second armored company spreads out to the wings!" Following Mike's order, two platoons of the armored company in the second battle sequence suddenly turned to the left, and the other two platoons turned to the right, like infantrymen. The tanks on both sides formed a protective wall to ensure the safety of the first armored company, which was the main attack mission. From the air, it looked like a blooming flower, with layers of petals spreading out.
This time, considering that the enemy’s firepower will be relatively strong, the three attack surfaces that are deployed at the same time adopt a double-row cross layout. If it is a normal tank battalion, the number is not enough, but in a large-scale 75 tank With the support of the armored battalion and follow-up troops, the French line of defense was not so strong.
Test, discover, shoot, retreat. At a distance of 400 to 600 meters, the Bavarian armored forces and the French 75MM rapid-fire guns launched a series of wonderful battles. The cricket tanks used their mobile advantages to test the French artillery positions time and time again, and they would advance quickly. , And after firing a row of shells, they began to reverse backwards, or move in an oblique direction. When the French began to counterattack, they quickly withdrew from the opponent's effective range under the cover of the cover shell.
The Hu Feng-style assault gun at the back like a sniper focused fire on the exposed French artillery positions. At the same time, for some indestructible targets, it was handed over to the wild bee self-propelled artillery loaded with 150mm heavy infantry guns. The self-propelled gun carries only 10 shells, but the reinforced concrete armor-piercing shell weighing 100KG is definitely a nightmare for the defender!
The 100KG shell, like a heavy hammer, drew a beautiful arc in the air, and then slammed it heavily on a concrete bunker. The bunker was very well repaired. There was a 0.8-meter reinforced concrete layer on the front, and the height of the exposed ground was not high. More than half a meter. Almost within the dead corner of the tank artillery, the two 75MM rapid-fire guns and four machine guns successfully blocked an 800-meter offensive channel. Neither the 75 gun nor the 2 pound gun can do anything with him.
However, this heavy shell ended the strength of the bunker and about half of the company inside! The round and blunt warhead easily smashed open the top cover that was half a meter thick at the top, smashing the top of the entire bunker by half. Following the explosion of explosives, a shock wave mixed with debris and dust rushed out of the muzzles and vents of the bunker ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ When the smoke cleared, only one half of the ruins collapsed.
As the French line of defense was stripped off layer by layer, the armored forces began to advance in the depth direction, and the entire armored company began to attack. Today their task is to advance 10 kilometers. This task has been completed, and what is left is to let the armored forces cooperate with the infantry to tear the opponent's position to the two wings and make the gap bigger.
"Does everyone feel strange? Why didn't we encounter a large-scale French armored unit?" Looking at the battle report in his hand and the map spread on the ground, Mike was a little confused. The French have only three lines of defense in this defensive zone. If nothing happens, after supplementation, they will be able to break through the last line of defense by noon tomorrow at the latest, and then they will face the unsuspecting French rear. Up. With such a big movement today and such a fierce fight, it's impossible for the French to be too slow to respond, right?
"Then the question is now, what are the French doing?" Mike was a little confused.
"Grass! In other words, Ruprecht and the French are in a fight?" Xiao Moqi looked at the telegram in his hand and said in surprise. At this time, in another breakthrough area, the first large-scale collision between the Bavarian Panzer Corps and the French broke out! Ruprecht’s first armored division and reserve armored forces collided with the largest armored cluster on the French front!
