Chapter 773： Anti-tank trench

At nightfall, the main force behind arrived, and Guderian also appeared in front of Dietrich as the chief commander of the battle against Britain.

Germany created a new tactic, and the blitzkrieg stupid the enemy, but the British were able to creatively create anti-tank fortifications at this time!

The British did hit Germany's weakness.

German tanks are almost always in the field. The last time they fought Exeter, they showed the deficiencies of tanks in the city. Now, they have to attack big cities like London.

How to do?

The British creatively dug out anti-tank trenches to hinder the German attack. Yes, this is a difficult problem in front of the German troops.

The trenches of the First World War actually came in handy again here.

"The British are waiting for us behind the anti-tank trench." Guderian's face was calm: "The British are testing to see if we dare to cross this anti-tank trench."

"Now, the best way is to build a bridge." Dietrich said. When the sky was still light, he had observed the opposite side countlessly, and then thought about how to solve this problem.

If there is no water, it would be easier to handle it. Now the other party is actually drawing the river water, so the best way is to build a bridge.

"No." Armored Meyer, the commander of the Skeleton Division, said: "If there is no water in it, our bridge is almost the same. Now, the anti-tank trench is filled with water, and the soil on both sides is soft. Even if we are building a bridge, , And safety cannot be guaranteed. It is very likely that the erected bridge will collapse during the operation."

Their subordinates are all the most elite troops, and the tank soldiers are all veterans. No matter how narrow the bridge is, they dare to step on the accelerator to move past, but they can’t do it now. The tank weighs forty tons. Once it collapses, the tank is easy. Turn it down.

Meier has rich experience and can see the danger at a glance. If they are allowed to watch the Panther 3 tanks roll down from behind, it will simply make them unhappy.

"Or, let's use a bulldozer?" Denying Dietrich's plan, Meyer put forward his own ideas.

Bulldozers are also an important plan to deal with trenches. You must know that in this era, there are not so many machinery and equipment, and there are not a large number of Lanxiang College graduates to start.

Almost all the anti-tank trenches here were dug out manually. It would be nice if they could be dug out, and no one would transport the dug up soil away.

The soil is piled up next to the trenches, so as long as one moves the bulldozer over, it will be able to fill in the trenches in one go.

Ordinary bulldozers certainly won't work, but even if some armored bulldozers are temporarily modified, or even a shovel is added to the front of the tank to bulldoze, there is no problem.

Refill!

This time, it was Dietrich's turn to deny him.

"No, you haven't been in front." Dietrich said: "The British are very cunning. The dirt is piled on their side. There must be a defensive master on the opposite side."

Generally speaking, when digging trenches, the excavated soil is piled in front of oneself, so that the soil is used as a breast wall to increase the height of defense. This is almost the orthodox textbook in the infantry drill.

So, when digging tank trenches, it's almost the same.

However, the British did not do this. The British piled dirt on their side, so that even if they wanted to use a bulldozer, there was no ground to push. It was so embarrassing.

Moreover, if one's own tank moves past, it will happen to be uphill, exposing the most vulnerable bottom, which is convenient for being hit by the opponent's anti-tank fire!

The plans were rejected one by one, and even Guderian frowned at this time. This time, he was indeed in trouble.

If you don't consider the cost, it can be overcome. For example, applying from the rear to mobilize amphibious tanks over this kind of trench with water is just like a fish in the water.

However, they cannot take advantage.

The armor of the amphibious tank is too thin. Although they can get through this small trench, what about after the past? Their armor can't stop even a large-caliber anti-tank gun, and they have to be blown out one by one after passing by!

For the same reason, their infantry fighting vehicles with wading capability cannot rush to the forefront. They are all unattended.

After a lot of lively discussions, after all the proposals were rejected, the scene was finally cold.

Everyone is thinking hard, is there any way to survive this anti-tank trench at the least cost?

Moreover, it must also be the main force, a tank that can withstand any anti-tank fire attack of the opponent!

When the front line was blocked, the news also passed back to Paris Cyric, who was still commanding operations in Paris, was also taken aback when he heard the situation on the front line.

In general, Cyric is responsible for strategic movements, such as the army's attack on the west, landing in the UK, such as how to follow-up, etc., generally not responsible for specific tactics, that is the responsibility of the front-line commander.

And now, the British people have a whim, and the modern moat that they have created has also shocked Cyric. It seems that the British are really using their brains.

Everyone has unlimited potential. When being driven to a dead end, it is easier to burst out this energy. Now it is a living example.

"British people, really have ideas." Cyric said: "I think, let's just let Dr. Porsche's new toy show off in the past, and let the British taste the taste of being crushed by the front."

Dr. Porsche's new toy? Hearing this, the people present were stunned. The fat Scherner said: "The project of Dr. Porsche is still not going well. There are various technical problems that cannot be overcome. Just get it on the battlefield, is it appropriate?"

"Weapons are to be used." Cyric said: "Since there is a demand now, let's take a look on the battlefield."

"What if it doesn't work?" Keitel asked.

"No? There is nothing wrong. If it doesn't work, then just blast the Teddington Barrage. Don't the British like to play in the water? Let them play it all at once!" Cyric said sharply.

If that dam is blasted, the entire London will be covered by floodwater!

Last time I used fire to kill a city, this time I changed to water! In short, since the British are not as cooperative as the French and surrender obediently, let them know how powerful they are!

Either surrender or die! 210108
