When the infantry detachment moved to the starting position, three red signal flares rose into the sky, and the long-awaited assault gun rushed out of the hidden point. At this time, the artillery suppression of the offensive troops also reached its peak! The barrage of the 105mm howitzer and 120mm heavy mortar rolled back and forth on the opponent's defensive positions.

"Is this a double barrage?" Xiao Moltke was surprised to find that when the barrage shot from the howitzer swept the first position and began to extend to the rear, the second barrage shot from the heavy mortar took over the former's work and continued to suppress the opponent's front-line troops. This special artillery support method was the first time Xiao Moltke had seen this special artillery support method.

"When the first barrage extends to a deeper level, the opponent will often send troops in the shelter to enrich the first line of defense. At this time, the second barrage can effectively kill these enemy troops. Our attack on the breakthrough is three-dimensional. Use fierce artillery fire to squeeze several lines of defense at the same time!" Major General Schmidt explained.

As the engine rumbling and the sound of tracks crushing the ground, low-sized steel beasts rushed out of the smoke. They used machine guns and artillery to quickly harvest the fire points exposed on the opposite side. The other party's machine guns and grenades were of no use to these guys wearing sharp-stricken sharps.

The infantry that had moved to the starting position also began to attack. Under the cover of machine guns and 60 mortars, the engineers moved forward with obstacle breaking tools. The first thing they had to solve was the minefield in front of the trench, which was one of the few things that could prevent the tank from advancing. Blasting tubes were connected and extended forward continuously. With a series of muffled sounds, passages were blown out from the originally complete minefield.

Under the cover of tanks, infantry squads began to advance alternately, and the firepower group with machine guns as the core suppressed the opponent's exposed fire points. At the same time, they were alert to the side and reverse attack positions. The commando team composed of armored units formed the short side of the trapezoidal front, and they slashed like a chisel like a chisel on the opponent's defense!

Before the tank appeared, there might not be any special anti-tank guns, but it did not prevent the defense from leveling the infantry guns or field guns for firing. The fundamental reason why the prince increased the weight of the first-generation breakthrough tanks was to defend against the opponent's high-explosive bombs or those shells with little power. During this exercise, although the defense did not level the 3-inch rapid-fire guns, it still had some small-caliber infantry guns.

"Priority attack flat-fired artillery!" Several fire support teams carrying 12.7mm machine guns appeared 500 meters on the front of the position. These large-caliber machine guns have great lethality to small artillery with gun shields. Normal 5 to 7mm steel plates cannot withstand the attack of large-caliber machine gun armor-piercing bullets at all. Xiao Moltke personally used a telescope to see a simulated 57mm infantry cannon being smashed into pieces by a series of armor-piercing bullets.

"I'm afraid this kind of large-caliber machine gun is not convenient to carry?" Xiao Moltke asked the person next to him.

"They are actually not much heavier than our first-generation heavy machine guns. Because they use air cooling, there is no heavy bucket. After using a new tripod and a series of weight reduction measures, the gun body and gun frame of this machine gun can be carried by three people. With a certain amount of ammunition, 7 people can handle it. Although it is a bit laborious," an officer explained.

Although this is the No. 3 assault gun imitated by the technology of Battle 1, it is still not a high-explosive bomb fired by small-caliber infantry cannons after being hung with the track plate! The grenades fired by the defense have no effect except knocking off the track plates hanging on the front armor. The low appearance cannot protect them from surviving under such dense large-caliber machine guns and mortars peaceful artillery fire. As one gun position is removed, the path to the first line of defense is finally opened!

A large number of infantry carrying submachine guns and grenades jumped into the trench under the cover of combat vehicles, and quickly cleared the resisters in the trench using weapons called "bullet sprayers" in their hands. The enemy would not give up because a line of defense was broken. Reinforcements on the second line began to move towards the breakthrough, trying to block this breakthrough point.

At this time, the team carrying semi-automatic rifles and machine guns quickly seized the position, established defensive positions on both sides of the breakthrough point, and with the help of the cricket assault tank, they began to tear the opponent's defense line horizontally. They wanted to make the gap in this defense line bigger! Although the thin crickets do not have the heavy armor and artillery as heavy as the hornet tank, their flexibility and high maneuverability make up for these shortcomings. When the opponent does not have heavy flat firepower, their performance is even more eye-catching than the hornet!

"To be honest, these little guys who are only equipped with machine guns performed a little beyond my expectations. They are agile and quick, like a sharp scalpel, cutting the opponent's defense line. Although they may encounter some small troubles because of some solid support points, we have to say that we need this new era cavalry to perform this mission."

The entire offensive force continued to advance, and a small number of crickets and grenadiers cooperated to continue to expand their positions, while the main armor group continued to attack in depth. They had to completely penetrate the opponent's defense line! The distance between the opponent's two defense lines was 800 meters to 1,000 meters. Under normal circumstances, this inverted defense line could completely exhaust the attacking soldiers. After all, it was very difficult to fight in the battlefield with more than ten kilograms of equipment. Moreover, they had just broken through the first defense line, but with the help of a half-track conveyor, the soldiers responsible for attacking the second defense line directly took a car to cross the battlefield and entered the battle!

The speed of the attacking party was obviously beyond the expectations of the defense. The attacking party continued to attack the opponent in depth without any pause. The distance of more than 800 meters was too close to the Bavarian Legion that used wheels instead of feet! In just a few minutes, the muzzle of the hornet assault gun was pressed against the opponent's forehead! At about 300 meters, the shooting of the 75mm cannon was stable and accurate, while the second line of defense did not have enough space to deploy minefields and various obstacles.

"Their attack speed was too slow, and there was no pause in the middle. It was as easy to cut two very tight lines of defense like cutting butter with a hot knife." Xiao Moltke described it in his report. After breaking through the two lines of defense in succession, the defense forces had exhausted, and the command center, logistics units and artillery positions in the rear were completely exposed. The cavalry, who had never had the chance to perform, could finally roar across the defense line. At this point, the entire exercise ended with the victory of the attacking party.
