Chapter 1638： Total attack two

Chapter 1638

However, what the French can't imagine is that apart from guessing the time of the initial German offensive, no other inference was successful.... The Germans launched the attack at 6 o'clock, which is correct, but their firepower preparation is very short, and it is a hard charge! However, the effect of the hard punch is still so good, it took 20 minutes to hit it, and it only took half an hour to pass through the zone between the two lines of defense! And when the offensive troops passed through the middle zone, the howitzers behind the Germans had already begun firepower preparation... The offensive speed is incredible!

"General, we must use long-range artillery and the air force to support the main line of defense. If the main line of defense is lost, then we will have no danger to defend. Even if the reinforcements are in place, we can only fight a field battle with the Bavarian Army! And this result is undoubtedly a disaster. Sexual!" At this time, in the French army command, a French legion said loudly.

"Then our rear is still a mess. The Germans have been moving. They contain us and consume us during the movement. If we expose the remaining artillery positions at this time, we will definitely be destroyed directly. The artillery positions have almost no defense. Ability, even unable to stop the opponent's casual blow!" said another officer next to him.

"Wait, last night, the German assault troops only passed under the cover of night, and today, if most of the Germans want to pass, then at least fifteen large firepower and support points must be destroyed. I also deployed a reserve team behind these support points. They can hold on for at least 3 hours." At this moment, Xia Fei’s brain was spinning quickly, calculating the progress of each other, enemy and us. In the end, he chose Temporarily trust the line of defense you have deployed.

At this moment, the main offensive force on the front is crossing the middle zone and marching toward the main defense line. The breakthrough force that crossed the French defense line last night has already formed a group with the French reserve team, and the two sides are spreading out on the empty wasteland. It was a thrilling fight!

"Your Colonel, the Germans are here! They are about 3,000 meters away from us at three o'clock! Fifteen minutes ago, they had just smashed the 7th Cuirassier Battalion! We went up and caught them by surprise!" The French officer pointed to a distant place with billowing smoke.

"Very well, all, tanks and truck artillery are ready to attack, let the infantry keep up with our attack." Colonel Gnar commanded an armored battalion and an infantry battalion. He and his subordinates once faced the Prussian armored sprint on the western front, and his best is to use the towed artillery as a defensive shield to counteract the opponent's attack, and then use the armored iron fist to give the opponent a heavy weight when the opponent is exhausted. A blow!

The principle is very simple, but the actual implementation is different. First of all, your defensive position must be selected. The battle defense artillery must be deployed on the front line of the opponent’s attack, and the deployment time of artillery and infantry must be considered. According to Gnar The colonel's experience, according to the German organization and his experience on the Western Front, after destroying a French armored battalion, it would take at least half an hour to an hour to repair the tank and replenish ammunition.

Therefore, after referring to the experience of the Western Front, Colonel Gnar boldly asked the infantry battalion behind to deploy the artillery at a distance of 1,200 meters from the opponent, and then his armored force would attack and actively attract the opponent to his own combat guns. Hit the front!

"Are our flanking 15th Dragoon Battalion and the 2 accompanying infantry battalions in place?" Colonel Gnar asked. I have to say that after more than a year of fighting, the French are also commendable in terms of tactics. For example, the organization embodied on the battlefield this time. This time the French invested in a special combat unit called annihilation group. . This is specifically designed to deal with battalion-level armored forces with strong armor forces.

An annihilation group is composed of two armored battalions, a fast battalion, and two infantry battalions. Among them, a stronger armored battalion and a fast battalion form a battle group A as the avant-garde. Their task is to contain and consume opponents, and the other The B battle group consisting of the armored battalion and the two infantry battalions, while the former clamps the opponent, chooses a suitable time to attack it, forming a clamp-like offensive.

Group A has strong anti-armor power and high mobility, and can easily bite opponents, while Group B is strong and can be regarded as a balanced force, acting as the main force for the ultimate elimination of opponents. It is based on this tactic. The French army on the Western Front defuses the Prussian Army's attacks time and time again, and this time, Colonel Knar wants to reproduce this scene on the Bavarian Army!

However, what the French did not expect was...

"Fuck! This is coming?!" The Germans reacted much faster than the French thought. Just after the collapse of a French armored battalion, Rommel's troops immediately targeted the attack that just appeared. On the side of the Gnar battle group, and before the German tanks rushed over, when the French towed artillery was entering the position, the 150MM and 105MM howitzers located at the rear of the Germans came first!

This round is not a intensive shelling, and the Frenchman has a dull look! It is impossible for the Germans to hit here with heavy artillery. You must know that the common 6-inch cannon in this era can't hit 20KM. However, when the French were about to deploy their troops a series of 6-inch shells flew out of the horizon. What's the problem?

A cannonball exploded in the marching French army's formation, like a flower of death made up of flames and gunpowder smoke. Tens of thousands of shrapnel shot out in a radial pattern. In the first round of shelling, The shells exploded into several segments directly in the French line like a long snake formation! Although the absolute casualties caused by this round of attacks are not high, it is a pity that the whole battle has been irreversibly leaning towards the Germans!

Because the French infantry force began to try to avoid the shelling, it could not be deployed in a short time, and the two sides could not be together for 3 kilometers at this time! Excluding the combat distance of about 1 kilometer between the two sides, the wolf tank of the Bavarian Army can put the gun on the French forehead in at most ten minutes!

"Rush up and block them! Immediately send a telegram to the B battle group so that they can attack immediately! Damn, the German assault troops actually carry heavy artillery!" Colonel Gnar said decisively. His orders were decisive and the most at the time. The right choice, if you can't stop your opponent at this time, then the entire A battle group will soon be overwhelmed by a flood of armor.
