Chapter 2051 The Strongest Wave 1
"The 7th Cuirassier Division charges!" Following Colonel Herman's order, the 7th Armored Division of the French Army rushed out from its hiding place. Together with the 9th Cuirassier Division and the 5th Dragoon Division, they would block the German armor. The footsteps of the troops.
"The survival of France depends on today! The motherland is looking forward to our return in victory!" Unlike most of the French army, which has low morale, these armored units are currently one of the few units that can still maintain high fighting spirit. These armored units are part of the French Army They are proud of the French, and in the previous two years of fighting, their record was also brilliant. They have saved the French front again and again, but this time, they believe that they can still achieve the final victory.
Europe has a strong sense of knighthood, just like the Germans miss their Teutonic Knights, the Russians tout their Cossack cavalry, and the Poles never forget their hussars. The French also have deep feelings for the cuirassiers who once galloped across the European continent, and the troops that can be named after the cuirassiers are naturally the best in the French army! Not only did they have independent artillery but also a large number of anti-aircraft guns for air defense. Unfortunately, they appeared just between the two groups of German bombers. So, on the plains of France, a The tank battle that determines the life and death of both sides begins! Three French armored cavalry divisions took the lead, followed by a large number of infantry and other armored units. The French launched their most threatening wave of counterattack before the end of the war!
"The French tank troops are coming! There are a lot of them." At this time, von Seeckt was on the front line. He calmly looked at the French tanks in the smoke and dust in the distance and calmly reported to General Schmidt. . The battle line composed of three armored battalions began to change. They began to narrow the front, while the self-propelled anti-tank guns and combat anti-tank guns mounted on the half-track vehicles spread out on the flanks of the troops, assuming a defensive posture. Half an hour later, a torrent of steel composed of hundreds of French tanks collided with von Seeckt's forward!
"Fire! Maximum range, free fire!" 1,500 meters away, facing the swarming FT10 tanks and Renault tanks, a group of German tanks began an ultra-long-distance attack. The commander delegated power to each tank company. They can attack according to their own needs, as long as they can kill more French tanks!
Strips of flame flew from the muzzle, and the high-speed armor-piercing bullets flying through the air produced a sharp, whistling sound that echoed on the battlefield. A few seconds later, dense artillery shells fell into the French position.
The most unlucky thing was the Renault tanks that rushed up first. These armored cars were relatively fast, but their firepower and defense could only be described as tragic. The only purpose of their existence was to share the pressure of the FT10 tanks and Saint Monsa self-propelled anti-tank guns behind them. The armor-piercing projectile easily tore into pieces the fragile armor of the Renault tank, even blowing off the entire turret. Each tank was beaten into parts.
The French tank crews endured tremendous mental pressure. They watched rounds of artillery shells flying past them, and watched as their comrades who were fighting alongside them a few minutes ago were transformed into nothingness along with their tanks in the blink of an eye. A burning flame. Look at the German tanks in the distance that are constantly spitting out deadly flames! In the distance, every time a shell was fired from the muzzle of a German tank, their hearts jumped suddenly, and they hoped that the other party was not targeting them!
The path the French advanced was almost paved with corpses and wreckage. However, relying on the huge number, the French tank group finally got up. The French were not stupid. They knew that except for the Saint-Montcha self-propelled anti-tank gun, other tanks Attacking a Wolf tank from the front is tantamount to death. Therefore, after approaching, the French armored forces were divided into several groups, including frontal containment, but more importantly, detouring from the side.
However, the Germans were not stupid. When the French tried to outflank them from the side, they ran into the anti-tank gun positions prepared by the Germans!
The anti-tank gun positions on both sides were almost deployed close to the formation of the tanks. There was a tight fit between the two, with almost no loopholes. When the French tanks excitedly moved to the side, the wide flanks of the FT10 tank were directly exposed. Under the attack of German anti-tank guns, although these 50MM anti-tank guns were not very powerful, they were small in size and light in weight. After removing the gun mantlet, the height of the artillery was less than half a meter! Find a low-lying terrain and place the artillery directly against the ground. After simple camouflage, it is difficult to detect before firing.
So, before the French stabbed their opponent, the German anti-tank artillery hit the French hard first!
"Side! The Germans have deployed anti-tank gun positions!" After being caught off guard by a burst of artillery fire that knocked out several tanks, the French finally discovered the assassins hiding on the side, so some French tanks turned their muzzles and pointed them at the Germans. Fighting against artillery, this is a bloody battle! At such a close distance, the 50MM anti-tank gun can easily penetrate the opponent. Likewise, the grenades launched by the French can destroy the unprotected anti-tank gun. The two sides are fiercely shooting at each other, just like two naked warriors using their handguns. The sharp blade slashes wildly.
Every time the whizzing shells fell, a large number of lives were harvested. Fire and explosions filled the battlefield. Anti-tank guns were destroyed by French grenades. At the same time, the French cuirassiers were also beaten. covered in wounds. This is a war of attrition, and for individuals, it is also a battle where survival can only be measured in minutes and seconds. Death comes without any warning. When you concentrate on aiming at the French tank in the distance, a shell It will fall without warning, and you and your weapon will never be separated. And when a Frenchman celebrated that he had sent a German artillery squad and artillery into the sky, before the cheers could stop, several rounds of artillery shells fired from unknown sources would follow, completely destroying the tank!
The brutal killings on the flanks quickly turned the fighting between the two sides into a chaotic battle. Various tanks, armored vehicles and anti-tank guns shot at each other at close range. The surviving members jumped from the broken tanks and fought with each other with rifles, pistols and even daggers. Fighting, at this moment, the French once again showed their bravery and fearlessness at the beginning of the war, and the Germans would rather die than retreat. The bodies of the soldiers who died on both sides fell in strewn patterns on the burning tanks and broken battlefields. Between the anti-cannons, more and more troops joined in this feast of massacre!
