Chapter 1663: Final 1 Fight 4

Chapter 1663 The last battle (4)

"German bombers! Here they are! They are too many!"

"Where is our fighter plane?"

"God, they almost flew past my head!" When the wings of death were flying in the air, the fear of being dominated by flames from the sky on the battlefield once again haunted the French. They prayed that the British planes could help once again, but they did not know that the British Air Force was even more attrition than the French Army, and the battle broke out suddenly. The British were unprepared and the first wave of fighter jets rushed out. After the group was repelled, the Bavarian Air Force began its most comfortable ground attack since entering Asia Minor!

boom! After the first group of 500KG bombs landed, the earthquake-like vibration spread to the surroundings instantly. The Germans first aimed at a heavy artillery position. Eight 152MM cannons were placed in this area with a width of 700 meters and a length of 400 meters. And 6 120MM cannons! Their arrogant firepower made them the first target to be locked. Ten K-6 bombers first flew into this area, and then tilted 15 tons of bombs towards the target in less than 5 minutes!

A few minutes later, continuous explosions sounded from the battlefield. A few minutes ago, the heavy artillery position that was still majestic was reduced to ashes in the flames and explosions! The plume of smoke from the explosion even went directly into the air for hundreds of meters, one by one huge craters and radial mutilations were connected together. Except for the debris on the ground that could not be seen at all. Only the scorched earth is left. The mixed attack of high-explosive bombs and incendiary bombs not only destroyed the entire artillery position, but even the area where vehicles were parked not far away also exploded into a blank area. Looking from the air, the artillery position that had just been taken care of was left on the ground like a deep scar.

However, this was just the beginning. After groups of bombers launched air strikes one after another, the original fierce French artillery positions were either completely destroyed or suppressed, and even hidden in the wreckage of the house, avoiding German tank guns. The anti-tank gun positions of the grenade were not immune to this round of attack!

If before, the collapsed house gave the French some cover, then now, the incendiary bomb falling from the sky is like a death talisman! One incendiary bomb can quickly burn all the objects in the vicinity of thousands of square meters, and the French bunker and artillery hidden under the wooden bunker are naturally not immune. Under the baptism of tons of incendiary bombs, the entire town was submerged in the sky of fire. The black plume of smoke can be seen clearly even on another battlefield dozens of kilometers away, but it was originally hidden inside. The result of the French can also be imagined. They may die of high temperature, poison gas, or collapse of a bunker. Of course, the most likely thing is to be killed by the freed-up Bavarian Legion when they withdraw.

The bombers' attacks were short and violent, and they were unstoppable when they attacked like a heavy hammer. However, due to the limitations of the technological level of this era and the fact that there are too many ground targets, such an attack could not completely solve the problem. Then, another air force tactic that appeared in World War I was introduced, which was the use of small bombs. The exposed artillery positions were constantly strafed with machine guns to suppress opponents. In history, the first German attack aircraft carried out suppressing battles against artillery positions in the latter part of World War I, and the overall effect was not bad.

And this time, not only the K-6 bomber used a hedgehog-like machine gun to fire wildly on the ground, and even some fighter units joined the sweeping battle without problems, they even lowered it to At a height of about 50 meters, it almost flew past the top of the Frenchman's head, and then poured hundreds of machine guns and large-caliber machine gun bullets on the target. The howling bullets swept the ground over and over again, and countless soldiers were beaten into two pieces by the flying bullets in a rain of bullets like death sickle. When these planes flew by, the harsh noise generated by the rubbing air and the roar of guns in the ears. After a round of endless shots to the ground. Part of the French army finally collapsed!

The Bavarian Army, which seized the opportunity, responded very well. First of all, the howitzer unit, which was slowed down from the intensive British shelling, immediately launched a counterattack, relying on sound positioning equipment and aerial reconnaissance (there was a device that relied on sound to locate the artillery position in World War I, which was developed by the British). The self-propelled howitzers immediately aimed at the French artillery positions and began to suppress those artillery that the Air Force hadn't noticed.

After some rest and recuperation, under the leadership of the remaining wolf tanks, the tank was the forerunner, the armored transport vehicle was equipped with infantry to follow up, and the attack mode of truck guns providing fire cover was launched again. To be honest, although the French bombardment was fierce and caused a large number of casualties, it is still a bit worse.

The French’s large-caliber cannon’s attack was indeed very sharp. The first few minutes were terrifying, but the tanks were mobile after all. Before that, experienced Bavarian armored units had encountered many ambushes on the battlefield. If the tank company commander does not survive more than 5 ambushes, he is basically not qualified to ascend. Therefore, although some people are slow , most people immediately release the smoke and take evasive routes to dodge .

The French's concentrated long-range artillery firepower is indeed good, but the most critical problem is that it does not last long... The German bombers came. The first wave of unsuspecting infantry exposed on the battlefield was indeed very fierce, but it was not so good for infantry in armored transport vehicles and self-propelled artillery with certain armor protection. So, in summary, the French had a good start, but the time was too short. This is why Earl Schmidt still proactively attacked when he realized that there might be problems in the front, thinking that today’s air superiority is too great. .

And as the front battlefield was gradually turning around, the troops Xia Fei rushed out from the side also kicked the iron plate! Even if Xiafei has prepared so much for the French army, the prerequisite for all of this to succeed is based on the fact that his armored force can cut the opponent's front, that is, the opponent's armored force is not strong enough to stop it. This wave of attacks. The so-called armored spearhead, he himself is not too hard, and the spearhead is awkward!

As a result, the French FT10 collided with the tank reserve in the hands of Earl Schmidt.
