Chapter 954: End one

The German army, like a gray tide, smashed the resistance of the Japanese soldiers at a very fast speed. In Europe, which has entered the era of automatic weapons and heavy artillery, the bravery and fearlessness of the Japanese army during the Russo-Japanese War not only made the opponent psychologically uncomfortable. , The meaning is limited. What's more, the Japanese army in the Taisho period was far from being as rigid as the Showa period. When they found that they were surrounded by aggressive German troops, it was not unacceptable to throw away their weapons and surrender.

In addition to the frontal German army, the German army holding on to the support point also became a nightmare for the Japanese army. These soldiers took advantage of the familiar terrain to show their ghosts. Elite shooters shot their opponents in concealed personal bunkers. Large-scale companies used terrain and Ambush the Japanese retreating troops from the downside, and the German defense line that seems to have been penetrated recloses at this moment! A huge encirclement encircled most of the Japanese troops.

The only regret is that he did not seem to have caught a Japanese general.

"The three Japanese divisions were killed or injured and captured about 15,000 to 18,000 people. More than half of the troops did not withdraw. As for the destroyed artillery, about 60 to 70 artillery pieces were destroyed." The staff officer reported the collected battles. Arrived in front of Major General Hans von Seckert. The latter just nodded slightly, indicating that the latter could go down. Now, he is considering a question, how to write the summary of the battle this time.

Major General Seckett's plan was successful, and it was definitely the last big victory in terms of the annihilated Japanese forces, but the whole process and results were still somewhat lacklustre. The clear point is that Major General Seckett felt that he had hit a rotten cabbage with this iron fist, and the cabbage turned into a pool of mud. As a warrior, naturally he would not advertise how nb the cabbage was. Well, the Japanese combat effectiveness was so weak that Major General Seckett had a feeling that he should have won.

"The Japanese are not adapted to the European war situation in terms of training or tactical systems. From the highest level to the grassroots units, they have a huge gap with us and the United Kingdom and France." Seckett thought for a while and started writing. The first sentence.

"The Japanese lack an understanding of war. They prefer to gain victory by playing some clever tricks. It may be useful when facing the Russians. However, on the Western Front, which has unprecedented strength and firepower, this behavior can only bring disastrous consequences. Failure. Their infantry was full of sacrifice and fighting will. However, officers from the middle ranks and above lacked understanding of the battlefield attempts. They did not hesitate to get into the full set of my design, ignoring the presence of Britain and France. Experience in a few months."

"The level of the high-level Japanese army is hard to say. After all, we did not capture any general. This is the biggest regret in this battle. I will pay attention to it next time. In my opinion, if the Japanese army is equipped with British and French commanders and has If there is enough equipment, then it is still relatively threatening, but if the Japanese are allowed to direct themselves, it can only be said that they will not learn to adapt to the European battlefield in half a year!" Seckett finally asserted to the Japanese army. Then, the summary of Japan's combat effectiveness ends here. As soon as the pen was turned, he began to talk about another question.

"In this battle, the rapid use of wheeled or light-duty mobile artillery has played an important role. This is of great significance for the supplement of direct firepower on the battlefield and for anti-armor operations. Although the Hufeng assault gun is very useful , But this powerful weapon has strong offensive and defensive capabilities and cross-country capabilities, but also means that it is expensive and scarce. Because the Bavarian Kingdom has a small army, their industry is enough to equip the troops with these powerful heavy knights. But the Prussian Army is different. We need more cheap mobile artillery." Seckett thought of this, paused and then wrote.

"I personally think that the use of a cheap chassis, armor that can defend against shrapnel and machine guns, and a tank equipped with a 77mm artillery is of great significance to our future warfare. The powerful Bavarian armor group has arrived on the eastern front. The British and French armored forces are at a disadvantage in terms of quantity. We need to use this type of armored unit that can be mass-produced to smooth out the quantitative gap between the two sides."

"It is also of great significance to disperse this kind of cheap equipment among the infantry units. At least they can provide the infantry with timely and effective direct firepower. Each of our divisions has a storm commando team, and these storm commando teams are used Towing artillery to provide support, these artillery can not keep up with the pace of the troops. After breaking through the initial line of defense, the attacking troops slowed their advance due to lack of fire support."

"As the main offensive force, it can naturally be assigned to powerful armored units, but the limited breakthrough is not fatal to the opponent. Both sides have a depth of tens of kilometers, and the opponent has sufficient time to mobilize forces to a small number of breakthroughs. For blocking, if we can add some direct-pointing artillery to make some of the non-focused and wrong and also have a certain attack ability, then it will be a very important factor for the improvement of our army's combat effectiveness."

Unexpectedly, Major General Seckett’s greatest impression in this battle was not that he recognized the weak nature of the current Japanese army, but that he had read the record of "Kruger’s Circus". With new feelings! Originally, the German army also had some truck guns~www.wuxiaspot.com~, but most of these truck guns were undefended, and most of them were used as curved shots to support the fire. However, after months of fighting, more and more German frontline officers It was discovered that the problem of accompanying direct firepower required by the offensive forces has not been resolved.

In other words, this question has already reached the point where it must be kicked off. At this time, Major General Seckett proposed the idea of ​​"cheap assault guns". From this point of view, the changes it brought to the German Army are more significant than the discovery that the Japanese Army is currently relatively soft!

Is this concept right? Naturally it is right, because there are many poorly protected tanks in World War II, such as the German Rhino, a 88mml71 anti-tank gun mounted on a No. 4 tank site. Another example is the Soviet Union's su-76. In fact, to some extent, American m10 and m36 should also be regarded as such products. Although the latter has better protection, it is still inferior to Cheetah, Ferdinand, and Russian su122 and su100. some. These vehicles are used on the site of medium-sized tanks, and the cost is relatively low (American td is not cheap), but because there is a fairly good or even against the sky, it is a huge threat to various targets.
