"But now the coalition bombers have returned. Yesterday we used a heavy machine gun on the ground to set up an anti-aircraft gun mount and taught the opponent's SE5 fighter squadron a lesson. Now, taking advantage of the time when the opponent's bomber brigade had already returned, and the artillery position we arranged in the Nancheng District is beyond the range of the two artillery gangs of the opponent, we can fire a sudden artillery, not only to destroy the two infantry battalions of the enemy who rushed up, but not to let our artillery position be threatened by enemy air strikes. Why not do this?

Originally, when the other party lay down on the spot and fired at our machine gun, we still had the upper hand. After all, we had fortifications, and the other party was just a ridge. Now they have digging the field fortifications deep into the network, and our mortars cannot reach the other party's trenches. Now we are bombarded by the enemy's mortars... Isn't this just being beaten and unable to regain hands? The other party's mortars are hiding in the deep trenches, and our heavy machine guns cannot touch the other party at all!"

Simon Petliula looked dissatisfied. Although this guy drove Husev, the commander of the Volunteer 1st Division, back to the position, the commander-in-chief of the Ukrainian National Army, wanted to scratch his claws again and wanted to eat the fat piece of meat from the two infantry battalions of the coalition forces 1,200 meters away from the front of the position?

"His Excellency Petliula, I have to remind you that the defense war in Kharkov has officially begun today. We do not have air supremacy now. The artillery arranged in the southern city can only be used at the most critical moment. The enemy in the north of the city is a Japanese infantry brigade and a federal infantry division. In addition, there are unknown Chinese armored troops, both firepower and force exceed your volunteer 2nd Brigade of the 1st Division. Once we fire the artillery now, the two infantry battalions that rushed up on the other side may be caught off guard and suffered heavy damage, but have you ever thought about what will happen next?"

Von Neuyhaus's blue eyes stared at the Ukrainian Prime Minister in front of him like a falcon, with a hint of unfathomable pressure in his eyes. www.dyzw8.com138号138号138号

"Next?...The opponent's artillery will also counterattack, but aren't our cannons arranged in the South City area? Then outside the range of the opponent's current artillery position, we are now firing a good opportunity to eat meat and not get beaten!" Simon Petreura was obviously immersed in the fantasy of being able to unexpectedly annihilate the two infantry battalions of the coalition forces that rushed up.

"Counterattack? Once the artillery troops arranged in the south of the city open fire, they will hit the enemy seven inches and hit the shells on the most dangerous area at the most dangerous moment. If we expose the artillery positions in order to eliminate the enemy's vanguards of two infantry battalions, do you think the Allied forces will give us the next chance to fire and bombard the opponent's main force that is swarming?" Neuhaus asked bluntly.

"We can fight and run away... While the coalition air force's bomber group has not returned yet, we will find a way to transfer the artillery position again... Is this the chief?" The commander-in-chief of the Ukrainian National Army blinked his eyes and defended himself in discontent. In fact, his heart was already shocked. If he had to transfer the artillery position again in order to kill the other two infantry battalions, it seemed that it was a bit unpaid because of a small loss.

"Transfer? Commander-in-Chief, night is the best protection color for us to transfer troops and positions. Today is a clear and cloudless day. Do you think it is so easy and easy for us to transfer artillery positions when the coalition reconnaissance planes are low? I dare say that as soon as we fire the artillery position, we will definitely not be able to escape the enemy's aerial reconnaissance and transfer the position smoothly in broad daylight. Let's take a step back, we have transferred the position before the coalition bomber returns, so what?

Can the new position escape the opponent's air reconnaissance eyes? Our artillery positions in the Nancheng District are not exposed now. That is because we quietly moved the position in the middle of the night yesterday and made solid camouflage before dawn! Such opportunities will never be found under the noses of the enemy's reconnaissance plane in broad daylight! Do you understand? Our artillery is the biggest killer weapon to deter the opponent's artillery and offensive. Once the details are exposed, do you think the opponent will not sway the positions of the two Japanese artillery corps forward to the position that can attack us?"

Vonneuyehaus' series of questions completely disrupted the Ukrainian Prime Minister's position. At this moment, Simon Petliula really felt the gap in tactical qualities and battlefield situation judgment between himself, the commander-in-chief of the national army, and a German major general, and the man took a step back and muttered,

"With that being said... can't we just watch the enemy build up the fortifications 1,200 meters ahead of our position? If there is no means to suppress the opponent's mortar, we will not be able to stay in the trenches. Once the enemy launches an attack, I am afraid that the troops will be lost. What should I do if the first line of defense in the north of the city is really lost?"

"The position is not so easy to lose. The key is to keep calm. Even if the enemy continues to move the troops from the dug traffic trench to the field fortifications 1,200 meters away, it is not possible to reach this 1,200-meter distance. I am not afraid that there are few people coming from the other party, but I am afraid that there are not many people coming from the other party!

If you lack people, your volunteers, the 2nd Brigade of the 1st Division, the 2nd Brigade of the 1st Division, can beat the opponent back with only mg08 machine guns and mortars. What I am worried about is that the artillery of the coalition forces will not remain silent. At that time, the opponent will use artillery fire to attack our first line of defense, suppress our firepower and launch a full-scale attack, and we can't withstand the enemy's offensive with machine guns and mortars alone. At that time, we might have to use the killer weapon of the hidden cannon in the south city... Now, dragging time is the best way to deal with it, rather than shooting or counterattacking with ground troops, otherwise the opponent's cannon will be unable to hold back and fire..."

Vonnoyhaus shook his head, his face a little embarrassed. In the absence of air supremacy, the German-Ukrainian coalition had to evacuate the main force outside Kharkov. This is the fundamental reason for the current passive situation. Although the artillery of the German-Ukrainian coalition is not afraid of the artillery gang of the Japanese division under the same force, it cannot withstand the opponent and the coalition air force in the sky to assist. This means that once the artillery battle between the two sides begins, it will become a war of attrition. If the opponent's artillery reserves or reinforcements are more than himself, once the Kharkov's defenders' artillery cannon is almost gone, the German-Ukrainian coalition may become a broiler under the gun mouth of the opponent's artillery!
