"Here, boys, our new equipment is here! I hope you can like them!" The man called Armored Mike looked at the heavy-duty train driving into the station in the distance, and said happily to his subordinates.

The Lancers battle group commanded by this buddy in the early stage of the war started the first large-scale battle on the Eastern Front - the first wave of attacks in the border battle. With the sharp penetration ability of the armored troops and the powerful assault ability, the battle group he was in successfully defeated the enemy in front of him and divided the depth of the enemy. The task was completed outstandingly. Afterwards, the Lancers battle group participated in previous battles on the Eastern Front and Western Fronts, and made great achievements.

In the Polish Pocket Campaign that ended before, the Lancers once again acted as a heavy hammer for Prince Leopold. Shortly after the battle began, the Lancers, which was the first round of attack, was accidentally withdrawn from the front line, and then their vehicles were filled with other damaged troops. The personnel returned to the Black Fort Training Ground, the armored corps headquarters in Bavaria, where they would receive the latest batch of Bavaria tanks and assault guns.

"Look, these guys seem to be a whole circle larger than our crickets and Hu Feng. Look at the turret. If I guessed correctly the cannons on them, they should be 75mm cannons of the regiment." said a man.

"And the guy behind, it seems to be a semi-track armored vehicle? But it's a little bigger than we've seen before."

"Yes, this time, everything we saw was a bigger circle than before. I hope these things can be more stable, otherwise if they fail, it will not be easy to repair."

Soon, among the waiting crowd, a group of people began to comment on the equipment they had just sent. The excitement and anxiety of receiving new equipment filled the entire crowd.

"Mike, what do you think of these things?" Ron Hack, also a veteran armored soldier general in the Bavarian Army, was called the captain of the firefighting team, patted the old guy on the shoulder and said.

"We are getting further and further on the road of heavy cavalry." Mike pointed to the big guy called the wolf tank in the distance. "Thicker frontal armor, more powerful firepower, and then there is no improvement in mobility. All the new power is used to increase the armor and firepower. However, the speed has not been improved."

"I heard it was to immunize the armor-piercing shells of the French 75mm rapid-fire gun on the front," said Major General Hack.

"Is it necessary?" Mike felt that the designers of tank armored vehicles were too perverted in pursuing firepower! "Even if they can be immune to 75mm rapid-fire cannons, the French also have 105mm cannons. This thing can't stop the attack, right?"

"Or why do you say that you have been on the Eastern Front and your mind is stiff." Huck shook his head and said, with a hint of melancholy on his face. "After you returned to the Eastern Front, my assault group stayed on the Western Front for half a year and went to the battlefield three times. The cruelty of this is far from comparable to the Eastern Front. Cricket tanks have no advantage in using the MK5 tanks in the face of the British later. When the French FT10 tank destroyer was in large quantities, all other vehicles had no technical advantages except Hu Feng."

"We have always considered the problem that we have not been able to run at the Western Front, but how to break through the opponent's defense line, the French 75mm gun, the British 12-pound rapid-fire cannon, and the more terrifying 18-pound rapid-fire cannon. These cannons are completely disasters for armored forces. If there is a slight mistake, our tanks will be easily slaughtered like infantry facing machine guns!" Hack made a gesture, asking the opponent to listen to himself for the time being: "You are right. Even if you add armor, there can still be artillery in the British and French coalition forces to penetrate your tank, but if it is put into actual combat, the situation will be completely different."

"We are all old fryers, Britain, France and Germany, and the equipment level of an infantry division is clear. On the Western Front, the main force in the real battle is France and Germany. Although the British also have hundreds of thousands of troops, it is not a decisive position. The most we face is the French. So, I will start to explain to you now how big the tactical advantages of tanks that are completely immune to 75mm artillery are."

"There are not many artillery numbers in a division. Under the current circumstances, the maximum number of troops is about 11,000. What equipment do these troops have? They have at least 12 companies of 75mm artillery, and there will also be 3 to 4 companies of 105mm howitzers. If you are lucky, there may be 105mm cannons or 155mm howitzers. As for higher-level artillery, such as 155mm cannons, these things will not appear in the division level unless they are extra entitled. (The French artillery company is a 4-aircraft company, and the German rapid-fire artillery company is a 6-aircraft artillery company."

"If your tank is immune to 75mm rapid-fire cannons, it can also withstand the attack of 105mm howitzers. Within the range of a division level, the opponent can penetrate your cannons, and the number will generally not exceed 8! In other words, as long as you are not particularly unlucky, you will generally not encounter these things when you launch an attack, because the 105mm cannon is also responsible for anti-artillery and suppression tasks and is deployed behind. Do you understand what I mean?" After Hack finished speaking, staring at Mike, waiting for his answer.

"I seem to understand a little." Mike nodded and said. The combat requirement of this tank called the wolf type is to be immune to almost all first-level artillery in the French division! If the cricket tanks from the past are still used, then the number of artillery that can kill cricket tanks from the front in a division's front position may be 40, but if it were a wolf, there may not be any one! From the 15 tons of cricket tanks to the 22 tons of current wolf type tanks, the weight is very expensive, but the improvement of defense can be simply described as subversion!

As for what to do if you say to attack the side? There is no way. In fact, side attack is not particularly effective, because side attack generally means a larger incident angle. The attack position on the side makes the tank side armor thinner, but the defense power reflected is stronger than the physical thickness. Moreover, for this problem, the wolf tank has also been optimized.

However, both Mike and Huck are only considering the most basic front-line tactics, and when the prince decides to build a wolf tank, the problem is more profound! Although there is a saying that the addition of a weapon may not determine the outcome of the battle, for tactics and military production, an excellent weapon can definitely have an impact at the battle level.
