1591 Counterattack 3

But it doesn't matter, today's big meal has not been served yet! It's just a little bad for the aperitif. David still has some confidence in his armored troops, after all, there are many!

Tanks roared through the incomplete French positions, and the accompanying infantry jumped onto the half-tracked trucks and trucks to continue moving forward! Fighting forward, the French seemed to have not established a complete line of defense. Judging from the previous reconnaissance, the French formed several support points for the remaining war defense artillery to strengthen the defense in key areas. However, there were some gaps between each other.

"Old thing, we played the rest of the past." Earl Schmidt sneered after seeing the French deployment. This concentrated fire support point deployment brought a lot of trouble to himself on the exercise field in 1910. However, now, the Bavarian armored forces have summarized a complete set of solutions to deal with it. This time it is just a repetition of the exercise field!

The linear deployment of war defense artillery is to strengthen firepower and avoid the artillery in other places becoming a decoration after being broken through. When multiple artillery forms a support point, when the opponent's tank attacks from the front, the firepower density faces much higher than the average deployment. If the opponent passes between the two support points, it will face the side firepower of the rapid-fire gun! The effective distance to hit the side is much farther than hit the front!

The Bavarian attacking troops began to change formations, and the three wedge formations that were originally arranged in parallel began to shrink. The German armored forces began to shrink the attack front and at the same time increased the depth of the attack formation. The original 20 tanks had a wedge formation broken. On the narrow front, 12 tanks formed an attack wave, and three such attack waves formed the main force of this attack!

At the same time, behind the attacking troops, the accompanying self-propelled artillery and mortars lined up and aimed at a certain support point in the distance! The attack formation of the Bavarian Legion changed from a knife to a hammer! After strengthening, it launched an attack on a defense point facing the French!

The dense shells fell like raindrops on the support point in the middle. Dozens of howitzers and mortars could smash several tons of shells on the heads of the French every minute. The explosions and flying shrapnel quickly consumed the French's defense. Under the cover of smoke, the Germans launched a decisive charge! This time, the Germans had no false moves. It was just a simple impact and collision.

The mines deployed on the periphery had long been concentrated to a passage. The wolf-type tanks were galloping in the wilderness like ancient giant beasts. They would quickly cross the French defense line, and then quickly sweep the French gun positions at close range under the other party's astonished gaze!

The Germans limited the combat distance to about 400 meters. This is the limit distance of the front and front armor of the wolf tank on the front side to resist the 75mm artillery. The dense explosions brought the confrontation on the battlefield to a climax from the beginning. The French whistling shells caused damage to the German tanks. A wolf tank was concentrated by 7 shells, one shell stuck in the turret, and the other destroyed the barrel. The deadliest third shell penetrated the side armor from the back. A deadly flame rose from the engine position. After a few seconds, the tank stopped struggling.

However, just when the French were not having time to cheer for their victory, the wolf tank that was filled from behind quickly aimed at the killer just now. In less than half a minute, three grenades fired successively destroyed the French gun position, and the detonated ammunition affected another gun position next to them, and half of the nine gunners died!

The Germans' fierce attack made the French very uncomfortable. If the previous attack of the Bavarian armored troops was like a swordsman winning with exquisite swordsmanship, then the current Bavarian armored troops would be like a crazy Nordic berserker, using the war hammer and giant axe in his hand to storm-like attacks without any casualties!

However, the two 8 75mm guns in the company faced a wave of 12 wolf tanks and tons of fire support from the rear. The French also expressed helplessness! After destroying one wolf tank and knocking down two of the other heavy-bearing wheels, the resistance at this support point was over. The tracks of the wolf tank crushed the remaining French soldiers and artillery, and the torrent of the rolling armor rushed in along the torn hole.

"Are we going to launch a counterattack? The Germans have opened the gap!" a French officer asked.

"No, I can't, wait a little longer." Major General David rejected the officer's proposal. After all, the Germans have just come here. Once the French army launches a counterattack, the Germans will probably evacuate temporarily. The French have to wait for an opportunity to wait until the Germans pour into a certain number of troops along this small gap. The size of this army cannot be larger than that of the French army. But at the same time, when it is impossible to retreat easily, it is the time when the French armored troops launch a counterattack! To put it in the East, it is to attack it halfway!

However, what the French did not expect was that after successfully breaking through the position, the German army did not choose to continue to go deeper. After the armored troops broke through, they began to turn into the defensive and defending positions. The two tanks followed behind spread to the left and right wings, attacking the adjacent support points on both sides! Therefore, the firepower of the support point originally used to attack the flanks became the front again!

Obviously, the Germans were not in a hurry to penetrate deeper. They wanted to expand the attack hole and then attack again!

"It will be too late if you don't fight!" After realizing the Germans' actions, Major General David could no longer wait. He only had a multi-division force and could not deploy a new line of defense with certain defensive power. The German army grindled away the French's defensive forces bit by bit like peeling an apple. After the Germans cleared the second line of defense, only pure-blooded armored troops were left on both sides to attack! At that time, even if the French had the advantage of military strength, they dared not say that they could win!

"The Germans dispersed their troops for side attacks, and they would not have much frontal force." David took a deep breath and issued the most important order in this war! "Armored troops, launch an attack!" When the French tanks were ready, the howitzer regiment that had been on standby also began to suppress fire! With hundreds of various tanks rushing out of the hidden place and the flames rising from the horizon in the distance, the French's most powerful counterattack began!
