1588 Ambush 6

"Hey, this plan is still a bit too hasty." Xia Fei looked at the convoy that was still burning in the distance, and looked at his head again. If there were British planes in the air to provide cover and reconnaissance, I'm afraid that things would not have happened today, right? Xia Fei said in his heart.

It has to be said that the generals of this era of "original ecology" still kept their thinking in two-dimensional space. They valued the firepower, defense and maneuverability of tanks, realized the importance of motor vehicles to the rapid maneuvering of troops, and organized a rapid strike force according to their own ideas. However, they never realized the importance of power from the air to rapid combat.

Even though the British equipped the French with a large number of aircraft this time, they were just weakening the intensity of the Bavarian Air Force's strike and did not take the initiative to undertake combat reconnaissance, cover, etc., or in other words, the British fighter jets were not suitable for such tasks at all.

As Xia Fei said, if there could be a squadron of twin-engine long-range fighter over his troops, the loss today could be avoided by more than half! With these aircraft, the ambush of German self-propelled artillery could not be so smooth, and Major General Mike's tank troops were also very likely to be exposed. After all, tanks can be hidden in the dense forest, but how do you deal with the ruts left in the wilderness after a large number of convoys marched?! With aircraft cover, the losses of the transport team in the rear would be small, and without the chaos caused by bombers, the German team of reconnaissance vehicles would never dare to take advantage of the fire!

Of course, it is too late to say anything now, and all Xia Fei can do is to try every means to continue the battle. After integrating information from all aspects, Xia Fei believes that although the start is unfavorable, the French army still has an absolute advantage. The French army on the northern line has met the German defenders. Although the other side has many war defense artillery, it seems that there are no traces of tanks. In other words, in the battlefield, the number of armored troops of the Bavarian Legion is very small. Otherwise, the group just now would not be 20 to 30 wolf-style ambushings.

The Germans' attack posture was very good, and the march at night avoided exposure. If the Germans had sufficient armored troops and air force, then a wave of more than 80 tank assaults and air bombers in the morning could completely damage oneself before the French reacted, and the French would really have no chance to fight! But the result was such a good situation, but it was just a small fight. It can only be said that the Germans were willing but not capable of doing it here!

So what if his offensive pace is delayed? It's just one to two days late. Even if the Germans rely on the railway to transport it with all their might, how many tanks and heavy weapons can they replenish? To kill the two battalions! These two battalions must also deal with the attacks of the two French troops from the north and south at the same time. In this case, Xia Fei thought he had a great advantage. In his opinion, although the wolf tank was very excellent, Saint Monsa had proved that he could destroy his opponent at a normal combat distance. Then if he had to fight, he might not suffer a loss by relying on the numerical advantage!
