After the troops were beaten to pieces, what was the most important thing to do? Naturally, it was to immediately restore communications and rebuild the command system. Schrager needed to re-inventory the remaining inventory and then arrange for the evacuation of the troops. Shortly after the strategic bomber force launched the bombing

, a large number of Chinese armored troops have appeared in the north of the front, and the Russians, who have been suppressed, are also ready to move.

Schrager gave Lu Beining great rights. He could obtain any equipment he could use. In addition to trucks and other transportation vehicles, other weapons and ammunition could be obtained directly from friendly forces without reporting. Guderian simply did not

Without this order, start collecting artillery and vehicles abandoned along the way. Whether Schrager can escape and ascend to heaven depends on Lu Beining and Guderian. If this level is passed, then there is still a chance. If all this level is passed,

If you can't pass it, don't talk about anything else.

"They are about an hour later than the scheduled time!" Looking at his watch, Tian Yong shook his head helplessly. After receiving the telegram that the Russian Army launched a counterattack, Tian Yong had already vaguely realized that the encirclement might be carried out.

It won't go so smoothly. He doesn't know how much combat power the Austro-Hungarian Army and the newly arrived Germans have left, but he can feel that the Russians are exhausted. It may be okay to delay by relying on the defense line, but he wants to let them counterattack.

, it’s a bit overwhelming.

In fact, when the Russians used their remaining resources to launch a counterattack, they were unable to attack Guderian's troops who were intercepting them head-on. This was not just because they were too tired and poorly equipped, but because the Russian legions in this dimension were not adapted to attack.

.They have no history

The Soviet Union is so wealthy. So the military strategy is based on defense from the beginning. What else? Are you going to fight China in the east or Germany in the west? No matter how exquisite your tactics are, these two countries simply rely on their huge national power.

With this advantage, Russia can be easily crushed!

But Guderian was different. Although the offensive battle was not very good, Zhou Xuan also suffered a lot in defense. Under the attack of the Chinese Armored Division, he came back with all his strength. In the German Army

In the eyes of senior officials, Guderian's defense level is higher than

Higher than the offensive level. This made Guderian, who always advocated offense, feel so embarrassed! So the Russian army, which was exhausted and not good at attacking, collided with Guderian's troops, who were good at defense and had a relatively complete organization and had picked up a lot of foreign goods. The result would naturally be

It looks better.

Guderian was very aware of the advantages of both the enemy and ourselves. He lacked a large number of infantry and could not establish a solid defense line, but he was very mobile and had strong firepower. Both tank troops and mechanized troops were mainly tracked and half-tracked vehicles.

.Mobility is not bad even in the wild. The opponent's advantage is that it has a sufficient number of infantry and artillery.

Soldiers, they are stable, but the advancement speed is very slow and because there are not enough mobile armor units, the front will be very fragile before it stabilizes. Simple defense is absolutely not enough, Guderian can only continuously launch short assaults multiple times

Only by penetrating the opponent's defense can you hinder the opponent's attack. In fact, he did exactly that.

When the Russians climbed out of the trenches excitedly and launched a counterattack under the leadership of their commanders, they never expected that after the indiscriminate bombardment, there would actually be an organized armored regiment. In their haste, they were so sparse.

The sparse attack formation was instantly violently

The artillery and machine gun firepower was divided and annihilated. Then, before the opponent's artillery retaliated, he withdrew from the battlefield. After receiving the news, General Galen, after a brief hesitation, invested his last armored unit, and launched a large number of infantry under the will of the artillery.

attack.

"This Russian army is only at this level. It is far inferior to General Denikin's Guards Army." Guderian had heard about this Russian army for a long time. It is said that it was after China occupied a large area of ​​Russian territory.

The Russians and Guards veterans or descendants who were taken in. Judging from the battle reports, the combat effectiveness of this unit is still good, and the commander level is also acceptable. But hearing is better than seeing. Guderian, who saw his true appearance, was rough to the opponent.

The attack method is very disdainful.

The Russian infantry almost always follows the tanks on foot. There is no support from infantry fighting vehicles and the lack of large-caliber machine guns and machine guns. This means that Guderian's infantry fighting vehicles can easily get behind the opponent and then sweep the opponent with machine guns, and even

Get closer and use mk103 mechanism

There is no problem with the armor-piercing shells fired from the guns threatening the tank troops on the front. Use mortars and howitzers to suppress the opponent's subsequent infantry. Use 88mm anti-aircraft guns and outflanks to deal with a small number of Type 29 tanks. Guderian believed that he could defeat them with just one charge.

Can defeat opponents.

The Russians lack howitzers, especially self-propelled howitzers. If calculated based on the artillery currently in use, except for mortars, the medium and long-range firepower of the force put together by General Gallen is not as good as the rear force in Guderian's hands.

.attack

The artillery firepower is strong, but the accuracy is poor. It consumes too much ammunition and has a short range. It can be used in defensive battles, but if you want to go head-to-head with the opponent's howitzers in an open field, it is better to just sleep. Guderian can catch every move.

The other person’s pain points.

Continuous firing from the 105mm howitzer and 150mm infantry cannon quickly suppressed the Russian mortars with a range of less than 4km. The shock wave generated by the explosion carried a large amount of shrapnel and swept across the Russian infantry behind. Taking advantage of the chaos in the opponent's rear formation, the two flanks

step

The soldiers and chariots rushed over quickly, and the powerful 30mm machine guns and large-caliber machine guns slaughtered the Russian soldiers who had just survived the artillery fire. The intensive rapid-fire firepower directly opened several bloody alleys in the Russian attack formation, directly

Cut the Russian attacking force into two pieces.

The tank troops in the frontal assault did not gain much benefit. The Germans obviously would not use the steel fronts of the No. 4 tanks and Type 29 tanks. Many actual battles have told the Germans that doing so would definitely lead to losses. Guderian moved the tank troops

Disperse to both wings while placing 88mm

Pull the self-propelled anti-aircraft gun to the front. Use simple bunkers and camouflage to consume the opponent's armored units. Even if the 88mm anti-aircraft gun only has ordinary armor-piercing rounds, it will still pose a fatal threat to the Type 29 tank, not to mention that there are eager German tanks and tank destroyers nearby.

car.

"The Germans have a numerical advantage, and their mobility is better. Our armored units lack coordination and training, and many troops fight based on their own perceptions. They do not realize that there are enemies on their flanks.

He stopped to counterattack, and even led his men to rush to both sides. At this point, the already very loose formation was completely torn apart. Our armored troops were eventually divided and surrounded by the opponent and then eaten in one bite.

.and our

Because the infantry lacked anti-armor weapons, they were chased and cleared by the opponent's tanks. The training level of our troops is still very low. Moreover, we lack all kinds of equipment. The defensive battle may be okay, but when it comes to offense, we are far inferior to our opponents." In the post-war summary.

General Galen objectively analyzed the combat effectiveness of both sides. He also admitted that if it was an offensive war, the current Russian Army was not as good as the elite Austro-Hungarian Army led by Schrager, and it was incomparable to Germany and China.

!

Just as Guderian was happily beating up the Russians, Lu Beining was leading his subordinates to fight Tian Yong's mechanized infantry division! Although on paper everyone was in one division for each generation, and Lu Beining's was still an armored division,

But the actual combat effectiveness is not at the same level! Losing position and cover

The Austro-Hungarian Army, which was physically protected, was really no match for China in a field environment. The coordinated breakthrough of tanks and tank destroyers, the support of self-propelled artillery and infantry fighting vehicles, and the accompanying attacks of a large number of mechanized infantry, coupled with air support, allowed

Lu Beining finally experienced what the Germans experienced on the southern front!

Covered by bunkers or unexpected attacks, the Wasp tank destroyer caused some trouble for China. However, this time relying on aerial reconnaissance, China discovered Lu Beining's preset position in advance and covered the position with assault guns and rocket launchers.

Taking advantage of the opportunity for the barrage to extend in depth, under the leadership of a small number of tanks, a large number of infantry fighting vehicles covered the infantry and inserted into the opponent's defense line from the flanks. They directly avoided the Wasp tank destroyers and the remaining 88mm anti-aircraft guns in the front.

It's not that Lu Beining doesn't know how to defend the flanks, but because he really doesn't have that many powerful artillery to deploy a complete line of defense. He can only bet on the opponent's attack direction and then deploy the main force there. He specifically relies on the original trenches.

The trench was used to set up the formation, and the sides were close to the trench. If the opponent wanted to make a detour, the attack surface would be relatively narrow. What Lu Beining didn't expect was that Tian Yong attacked from the side. However, after breaking through, he did not attack in depth, but turned towards him.

Coming from the middle.

"They don't have enough fuel. They can't run away." Afterwards, someone asked Tian Yong why, and he replied. Tian Yong had no other troops to help him expand his results. Historically, the German armored forces in World War II only cut and broke through the opponent's defense line at the beginning.

And there are a large number of infantry units

They helped them complete the encirclement and annihilation. But this time Tian Yong had to use both hands to divide and annihilate. Although Lu Beining tried to block the loopholes on both sides, he had little effect due to the interference of air strikes and long-range artillery. Temporary

The mobilized troops can only fight alone.

If the fight continues like this, Lu Beining, who hastily deployed defense, will not be able to support it for long before being divided. Tian Yong is also ready to add to his record. But at this moment, something unexpected happened.

Guderian's troops, who had just repelled the Russian attack, suddenly came to support Lu Beining's troops and launched an attack against the Chinese troops outflanking them from the right!

This blow was indeed beyond Tian Yong's expectation. He did not expect that the Russians would be defeated so quickly, nor did he expect that Guderian would come to attack him. Although he had a mechanized infantry division in his hands, in terms of anti-armor capabilities

, not even a German armored division can compare! A bunch of stuff with assault gun names and 122mm plus howitzers are also unambiguous when it comes to fighting tanks! Guderian chose to break through from the side, taking the right first step, but

Sometimes being in the right direction doesn't mean you'll win a big victory!

Facing the German tanks rushing from the side, the small number of Type 29 tanks that led the troops to outflank the troops quickly covered the troops' retreat and out of contact with Lubenin's troops, and then turned their guns to deal with the Germans. At the same time, the tanks originally provided firepower from behind.

The supporting assault guns also turned and aimed at the Germans. The two troops quickly formed a pincer-like offensive and aimed at the rampaging German tank group!

This is the first time Guderian has encountered the Type 29 assault gun. From the appearance, the fighting room is larger than that of a tank destroyer, and the gun is short and thick. It should be a howitzer or infantry gun. For this kind of unit, Guderian has no idea.

Afraid, because this kind of thing also exists in the German army, including the No. 3 assault gun.

One type uses a 105mm short-barreled howitzer. The anti-armor capability of this tank is far inferior to that of a specialized tank gun. However, this judgment was broken after a few minutes. Just as Guderian's armored spearhead was aimed at the tank, from a distance

The roar of heavy artillery coming from everywhere made him feel nervous!

1,200 meters! A 122mm armor-piercing round accidentally hit a running No. 4 tank. The round hit the tank's turret side armor like a heavy hammer! The blunt warhead easily tore the entire piece off.

The armor was torn into pieces and then hit the ammunition rack at the rear of the turret! With a loud noise, the turret weighing several tons detached from the turret, as if it was beheaded!

"This situation is not right." Bremani, who was charging with his tank company, looked at his comrades who had just been destroyed and said to himself. Although the sides of the No. 4 tank were relatively fragile, the Germans specially installed them on the sides of the turret.

Extra armor and suspended manganese steel tracks

, although the defensive power is not as good as the front, taking into account the angle of incidence, it is definitely not something that the 75mm artillery of the Type 29 tank can do so easily penetrated 1200 meters away. In other words, the anti-armor firepower of the opposite tank

Stronger than a tank!

"Pay attention to the flanks and contact the battalion commander. We need to allocate some troops to deal with the flanks!" Bremani first realized that something was wrong, but with the high-speed advance of the tanks, the two sides had already started fighting and it seemed that it was too late to adjust the formation. Bremani

Ni could only bring his own men to cover the flanks of the main attacking force.

"Go to hell! Beast!" With a bang and the sound of shell shells being withdrawn, an armor-piercing projectile hit a target 900 meters away. From the command tower, Bremani could clearly see the strange tank exploding from the front.

A ball of fire appeared! However, the flame quickly extinguished, and it seemed that there was no breakdown.

"Fire the tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullet! We go up from the side, they lack cover!" Bremani directed his tank to walk along the zigzag line until the next shell was loaded, then made an emergency stop and pointed the gun barrel at the target. Boom! There was a sound.

, accompanied by the whistling of artillery shells, Bremani suddenly heard something hit his tank, and penetrated it from the side with a high-speed armor-piercing projectile.

When a Type 29 assault gun hit his tank, a rocket hit his tank from the front! An anti-tank man holding an RPG2 rocket launcher attacked the stationary tank from 100 meters away. The fatal impact caused by the hollow warhead

The metal jet easily tore through the front armor of the No. 4 tank, successfully killed the driver, and ignited the flammable items inside the vehicle body!
