When the commander did not understand what it was, a large number of fighters emerged from the sky, and the shiny Romanian Air Force appeared.
As the latest Romanian aircraft, the Goshawk III fighter combines many technologies from Britain and France. It has a wingspan of 7.62 meters and a length of 9.57 meters. It is a biplane. The strong power of up to 210 horsepower supports it to become an aerial killer. On this point, the Austro-Hungarian and Germans have the most say. In the past, Soviet Russia has not many types of aircraft, all living under its fear.
In addition to the Goshawk III fighter aircraft, there are also Romanian dh-10 bombers imported from Britain. As the most excellent bomber in World War I, the dh-10 bomber had no reputation. Mainly because it was too late to participate in the war, it did not leave a prestigious name.
The empty weight is 2,533 kg, and the maximum take-off weight is 4,082 kg. The maximum level flight speed is 199.5 kilometers per hour, the practical ceiling is 5335 meters, and the range is 965 kilometers. Four 7.7 mm caliber Louis machine guns, carrying 626 kg of ammunition. Let Romania see its performance at a glance, introduce technology from De Havilland and produce it by itself. After the war ended, they also purchased 80 from the British military to supplement their own bomber deficiencies.
So when these air overlords appeared in the sky over the Soviet Russian army, all they showed was the fear of death.
"Shoo, hoo, hoo"
The bomb dropped from the sky, making the Soviet Russia hurriedly find a place to hide.
"Da, Da, Da"
The strafe of machine guns in the sky accelerated the evasion of these soldiers.
At this moment, the culprit who caused the earthquake finally appeared. More than a hundred jackal tanks appeared in front of the crowd, and behind them were Romanian soldiers who were recharged and armed to their teeth.
"The enemy's tanks and infantry, quickly order the troops to withdraw."
The first-line Soviet Russian commander certainly knew the tank, and he could also see the infantry following the tank. This is a trap. At this moment, only this idea appeared in the Soviet Russian commander's mind.
Of course, he can see it, and of course Yegorov in the back can see it.
"I was fooled."
At this moment, he had no time to regret it, and now how to preserve his strength is the most important thing. Now we must block this wave of enemy counterattacks, or our Western Front will be in danger of collapse.
"Immediately issue an order to Smirgar, requesting his 14th Army to deploy defenses in the position, and must block the enemy's counterattack at all costs."
At this moment, Yegorov was only available to Smirga's 14th Army. Speaking of it, considering the number of casualties in his troops before, let him take a temporary rest as a reserve team. Now the survival of the Western Front can be seen by his performance.
By the time Yegorov gave orders to Smirga, the Romanian counterattack had already rushed to the second line. Because they were entangled with the defenders of the position, the Soviet Russian army, which could not escape, was facing a disaster.
Many of these counterattack Romanian soldiers were armed with the famous mp18 submachine gun. These close metal storms are as easy to use in the hands of Romanians. When faced with this weapon, many Soviet Russian soldiers went to see Marx before they could understand what it was.
The Jackal tank also used its 37mm tank gun from time to time to call the Soviet soldiers who gathered together.
Slaughter, one-sided slaughter. The Soviet Russian soldiers who broke into the position were mercilessly slaughtered by these Romanian soldiers like innocent lambs. In particular, the 8th Army, which Hoffman listed as a key target, was in an even worse situation. Countless brave soldiers had no way to deal with the Romanian steel torrent. They don't have any weapons to deal with this steel monster, so they can only watch it looting among the soldiers.
When this sense of powerlessness and fear reaches its peak, escape has become an inevitable choice. As the first soldier to escape appeared, successive soldiers dropped their weapons and ran back.
"You guys stop for me and come back quickly."
A Soviet Russian commander screamed desperately, but couldn't make anyone look back.
"You **** deserters, I represent...uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
A political commissar who tried to intercept the deserter raised a pistol in an attempt to force the soldiers to return to the battlefield, but it was a pity that he was pushed off and even the weapon was robbed.
There are more and more Soviet Russian soldiers fleeing on the battlefield, and they have formed a trend of defeat.
"Go on, we defeated the enemy's fighting spirit in one fell swoop."
In a tank command vehicle, Hoffman watched the Soviet Russian soldiers running away and gave orders vigorously.
Following his order, the soldiers of the armored brigade drove the tank towards the front line. They want to take advantage of the enemy's untimely panic, and go all out to defeat the enemy's fighting spirit. Make your own contribution for the next thorough Western Front Army.
The rumbling tank crossed the trenches and drove the defeated army toward the front line. The forces of the three divisions behind them continued to form their fists and hit the line of defense that was torn apart by the sharp knife of the armored brigade.
"Fire, why not fire."
On the captured front line, the Soviet Russian officer loudly rebuked the machine gunner for not observing the order.
"But, we are all in front of us."
"Now I order you to fire, if I don't fire, I will shoot you."
"Da~Da~Da"
In the end, out of fancy for his own life, the machine gunner opened fire. But from the ballistic point of view, most of the bullets were wasted by him.
However, the shooting of his comrades did not give these fleeing soldiers the courage to attack them. They are like attacking the enemy's position, regardless of their own casualties, just to escape.
The counterattack in the position was completely tickle and feeble to the Romanian army pursuing it. Most of the soldiers hid behind the tank, and the only sound of these bullets hit the tank.
So soon, Romania once again hit the front line. Facing the steel monster that appeared in front of him, these Soviet Russian soldiers really had no good way.
At this time, the officer who knew the method said loudly to the soldiers: "Use bundles of grenades to blow up the tracks."
But it's easy to say, no tanks under the protection of Romanian soldiers explode so well. A soldier carrying a bundle of grenades was spotted by Romanian soldiers before they could run 30 meters. After a burst of gunshots, the grenade exploded in his arms, and in addition to leaving a pile of blood, the soldier disappeared into the world.
"Continue sending."
Following the order of the Soviet Russian officer.
Two more soldiers rushed up with grenade but they were already noticed by Romanian soldiers. After a burst of shooting, the two soldiers also fell at a distance of twenty to thirty meters from the tank.
Facing the steel torrent in Romania, the Soviet Russian army could only resist with flesh and blood. However, most of the Soviet Russian soldiers did not get close to the tank, and only a few lucky ones could run to the tank track to place the grenades. Even if these lucky guys bombed the tank, they couldn't escape the fate of being shot and killed on the spot in the end.
However, Hoffman would not give these Soviet Russian troops a chance. He ordered the tanks to stop at a distance of 50 meters and use artillery and machine guns to cover the infantry.
Therefore, in the face of the numerous tanks that were the mobile turrets and the romanian soldiers rushing in, the Soviet Russian army did not hold back for long.
Yegorov, who stayed behind and witnessed all of this with his own eyes, slapped himself severely, and caused all this to be his own cause.
But before he regretted it, an officer ran up to him out of breath: "Report to the commander that the 16th Army was defeated by the enemy. The enemy forces on the northern line are turning around behind me."
"what."
