What is the most important thing to do after the troops have been beaten to pieces? Naturally, communications should be restored immediately and the command system should be rebuilt. Schrager needed to recount the remaining stocks in his hands and then arrange for the troops to evacuate, and shortly after the strategic bomber force began to bomb, a large number of Chinese armored troops had already appeared in the north of the battle line, and the Russians, who had been pressed and beaten, were also ready to move. Schrager gave Lübenin a great deal of power, as he could acquire any equipment he could use, and with the exception of trucks and other means of transport, all other weapons and ammunition could be obtained directly from friendly forces without reporting. And Guderian did not use this order at all, and along the way began to collect discarded artillery and vehicles along the way. Whether Schrager can escape and ascend to heaven is up to Lu Bening and Guderian. If you pass this level, then there is still a chance, if you can't pass this level, don't talk about anything else.

"They were about an hour behind schedule!" Looking at his watch, Tian Yong shook his head helplessly. After receiving the telegram that the Russian army launched a counterattack, Tian Yong was already vaguely aware that this encirclement might not go so smoothly, and he didn't know how much combat strength the Austro-Hungarian Army and the newly arrived Germans could have, but he could feel that the Russians were exhausted, and it might be okay to delay by relying on the defensive line, but it was difficult for some strongmen to make them counterattack.

In fact, when the Russians used their remaining family funds to launch a counterattack, they really couldn't bite the Guderian troops who intercepted it head-on, not only because they were too tired and poorly equipped. Rather, it is because the Russian ** regiment in this plane is not suitable for attacking. They are not as generous as the Soviet Union in history. So the military strategy is based on defense from the beginning, or what else? Are you fighting China in the east or Germany in the west? No matter how superb your tactics are, these two can easily crush Russia simply by virtue of their huge national strength advantage!

And Guderian is different, although the offensive battle is not very good, but in the defense, Zhou Xuan also suffered, and under the attack of the Huaxia Armored Division, he can be regarded as coming back with all his beard and tail. In the eyes of the German army leadership, Guderian's defensive level was higher than the offensive level. This makes Guderian, who has always advocated attacking, embarrassed! As a result, the Russian ** regiment, which was tired and not good at attacking, collided with Guderian's department, which was good at defense and relatively complete and had picked up a bunch of foreign fish, and the result would naturally be better-looking.

Guderian was well aware of the advantages of both the enemy and the enemy, and he lacked a large number of infantry to build a solid defensive line, but he was very mobile. Firepower is also very strong, both tank and mechanized units are dominated by tracked and half-track vehicles. Even in the field, mobility will not be bad. The advantage of the opposing side is that they have a sufficient number of infantry and artillery, they are stable, but the advance is very slow, and because there are not enough mobile armored units, the battle line will be very vulnerable until it is stable. Simple defense is absolutely not enough. Guderian could only hinder the opponent's attack by constantly launching short assaults and penetrating the opponent's defense line many times. And in fact he did.

When the Russians climbed out of the trench and launched a counterattack under the leadership of the commander, they did not expect that there would be an organized armored corps after the indiscriminate bombardment just now. In a hurry, the sparse attack formation was instantly divided and annihilated by fierce artillery and machine-gun fire. Subsequently, before the enemy artillery retaliated, he withdrew from the battlefield. And General Gallen, who got the news, after a brief hesitation, threw in his last armored force. With a large number of infantry and the volunteers of the artillery, the attack was launched.

"This Russian regiment is at this level, far inferior to the Guards regiment of General Denikin back then." Guderian had long heard of this Russian army, which was said to be a veteran or descendant of Russians and the Guards after the Chinese occupied large areas of Russian territory. Judging from the battle report, the combat effectiveness of this unit is still good, and the level of the commander is okay. But seeing the true face of Guderian was very disdainful of the opponent's rough attacking methods.

The Russian infantry almost always followed the tanks on foot, without the support of infantry fighting vehicles and the lack of large-caliber machine guns and machine guns, which meant that Guderian's infantry fighting vehicles could easily go around behind the opponent and sweep the opponent with machine guns, and even threaten the frontal tank troops with armor-piercing shells fired from MK103 machine guns at close range, and suppress the opposing infantry with mortars and howitzers. USE 88MM ANTI-AIRCRAFT GUNS AND OUTFLANKING AGAINST A SMALL NUMBER OF TYPE 29 TANKS. Guderian believed that he could crush his opponent with just one charge.

The Russians lacked howitzers, especially self-propelled howitzers, and if you calculated by the artillery used in front of them, in addition to mortars, the medium and long-range firepower of this unit put together by General Gallen was inferior to the rear army in Guderian's hands. Mortar firepower is fierce, but the accuracy is poor, it consumes too much ammunition and the range is close, and it can be okay to fight a defensive battle, but if you want to fight the opponent's howitzer in an open field, you should wash and sleep. Guderian was able to pinch the sore spot of the opponent with every move.

THE CONTINUOUS FIRE OF THE 105MM HOWITZER AND THE 150MM INFANTRY GUN QUICKLY SUPPRESSED THE RUSSIAN MORTARS WITH A RANGE OF LESS THAN 4KM. The shock wave generated by the explosion carried a large amount of shrapnel across the Russian infantry behind, taking advantage of the chaos in the rear of the opponent, the infantry fighting vehicles on both flanks quickly rushed over, and the powerful 30MM machine guns and large-caliber machine guns wantonly slaughtered the Russian soldiers who had just survived the artillery fire. Dense rapid-fire fire drove several alleys of flesh directly into the Russians' attack formation. Directly cut the Russian attacking forces into two sections.

And the frontal assault tank units did not reap any benefits, the Germans obviously would not use the No. 4 tank and the Type 29 tank steel frontal, many actual battles have already told the Germans that this will definitely suffer. GUDERIAN DISPERSED THE TANK UNITS TO THE FLANKS AND AT THE SAME TIME PULLED THE 88MM SELF-PROPELLED ANTI-AIRCRAFT GUNS TO THE FRONT. Use improvised cover and camouflage to deplete your opponent's armored units. The 88mm anti-aircraft gun would still pose a lethal threat to the Type 29 tank even if it only had ordinary armor-piercing shells, not to mention the German tanks and tank destroyers that were eyeing it closely.

"The Germans have a numerical superiority, and they are more mobile. Our armoured units lack coordination and training, and many of our units are fighting on their own senses. When he realized that there was an enemy on his flank, he unconsciously stopped to counterattack, and even rushed to both sides with his subordinates, which also completely tore apart the already loose formation. Our armored forces were eventually divided and surrounded by the opposing side and then eaten in one bite. And our infantry, because of the lack of anti-armor weapons, were chased and swept by the opposing tanks. The level of training of our troops is still very low, and we lack all kinds of equipment, so we may be okay in defensive warfare, but we are far inferior to our opponents in attack. In the post-war summary, General Gallen objectively analyzed the combat effectiveness of both sides. And admitted. If it is an offensive war, the current Russian ** regiment is not as good as the elite Austro-Hungarian regiment led by Schrager, and it cannot be compared with Germany and China!

Just when Guderian was happily beating the Russians, Lu Beining was leading his subordinate Hetian Yong's mechanized infantry division to the death at this time! Although on paper, everyone is a division of each generation. Moreover, Lu Beining's is still an armored division, but the actual combat effectiveness is not at all a grade! The Austro-Hungarian Legion, which had lost its position and bunker protection, was really no match for China in a field environment. The coordinated breakthrough of tanks and tank destroyers, the support of self-propelled guns and infantry fighting vehicles, as well as the accompanying attack of a large number of mechanized infantry, plus air support. Let Lu Beining finally feel the encounter of the German army on the southern front!

Covered by cover or a surprise attack caused some trouble for the wasp tank destroyer to Huaxia, but this time relying on aerial reconnaissance, Huaxia discovered Lu Beining's preset position in advance, and covered the position with assault guns and rocket artillery, taking advantage of the opportunity of the barrage to extend in depth, under the leadership of a small number of tanks, a large number of infantry fighting vehicles covered the infantry from the flank into the opponent's defense line. DIRECTLY AVOIDED THE FRONTAL WASP TANK DESTROYER AND THE REMAINING 88MM ANTI-AIRCRAFT GUNS.

It's not that Lu Beining doesn't know how to defend the flank, but because he really doesn't have so many high-powered artillery in his hands to deploy a complete defensive line, so he can only bet on the direction of the opponent's attack and then deploy the main force there. He specially relied on the original trench to set up the formation, and the side was close to the trench, and if the opponent wanted to make a detour, the attack surface would be narrower. What Lu Beining didn't expect was that Tian Yong attacked from the side, but after penetrating, he did not attack in depth, but turned a corner and killed in his middle.

"They don't have enough fuel to run away." Someone asked Tian Yong about the reason afterwards, and he replied. Tian Yong had no other troops to help him expand the results of the battle, and in history, the German armored corps in World War II only cut through the opponent's defense line at the beginning, and a large number of infantry units helped them complete the encirclement and annihilation. But this time, Tian Yong wants to divide and annihilate, and he must grasp it with both hands. Although Lübenin tried to plug the loopholes on both sides, he had little success under the interference of air and strike and long-range artillery. Temporarily redeployed troops can only fight alone.

If it goes on like this. Lu Benin, who hastily deployed defenses, could not support it for long before it was divided. Tian Yong is also ready to add another stroke to his record. But at this time, something unexpected happened, Guderian's department, which had just repelled the Russian attack, suddenly came to support the Lu Benin department and launched an attack on the Chinese troops outflanked from the right flank!

This blow was indeed unexpected by Tian Yong. He didn't expect the Russians to be defeated so quickly. I didn't expect Guderian to come and attack him, although he had a mechanized infantry division in his hands, but in terms of anti-armor capabilities, a German armored division couldn't compare! A bunch of assault guns with the name of the assault gun and a 122MM plus howitzer are not ambiguous! Guderian chose to break through from the side and took the right first step. But sometimes just because you're in the right direction doesn't mean you're going to win!

In the face of the German tanks rushing from the flank, the small number of Type 29 tanks that led the troops to outflank quickly covered the retreat of the troops and disengaged from the Lübenin troops, and then turned the guns to deal with the Germans. At the same time, the assault guns, which were originally providing fire support in the rear, also turned to the Germans, and the two units quickly formed a pincer offensive aimed at the rampaging German tank group!

This was the first time Guderian had encountered a Type 29 assault gun. In appearance, the fighting compartment is larger than a tank destroyer, and the gun is short and thick, which should be a howitzer or infantry gun. FOR SUCH UNITS, GUDERIAN WAS NOT AFRAID, BECAUSE THIS KIND OF THING WAS ALSO FOUND IN THE GERMAN UNITS, AND ONE OF THE ASSAULT GUNS NO. 3 USED 105MM SHORT-BARRELED HOWITZERS. The anti-armor capabilities of such a combat vehicle are much inferior to specialized tank guns. However, this judgment was shattered a few minutes later, and just as Guderian's armored spearhead was aimed at the tank, the roar of heavy artillery from a distance made his heart tighten!

1200 meters! A 122MM ARMOR-PIERCING BULLET STRUCK A 4 TANK THAT WAS RUNNING WILDLY, AND THE SHELL HIT THE TANK'S TURRET SIDE ARMOR LIKE A HAMMER! The round, blunt warhead easily shredded the entire piece of armor and crashed headlong into the ammunition rack at the rear of the turret! With a loud bang, the turret, weighing several tons, detached from the turret, as if it had been decapitated!

"That's not right." Bremani, who was charging with his tank company, looked at his comrades who had just been destroyed and said to himself, although the side of the No. 4 tank is relatively fragile, but the Germans specially installed additional armor on the side of the turret and suspended manganese steel tracks, although the defense is not as good as the front, but it is definitely not possible to be easily penetrated at a distance of 1200 meters while considering the angle of incidence of the 29 tank 75MM gun, that is to say, the anti-armor firepower of the opposite tank is stronger than the tank!

"Pay attention to the flanks, contact the battalion commander, we need to divide some forces to deal with the flanks!" Bremani was the first to realize that something was wrong, but with the high-speed advance of the tanks, the two sides had already begun to fight, and it seemed that it was too late to adjust the formation, and Bremani could only take his men to cover the flank of the main attacking force.

"Die! Beast! With a bang, with the sound of the shell withdrawing, an armor-piercing shell hit a target 900 meters away, and from the conning tower, Bremani could clearly see a fire erupting from the front of the strange chariot! However, the flames quickly extinguished, and it did not appear to have penetrated.

"Tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullets! We went up from the side, they lacked cover! Bremani directed his tank along the polyline until the next shell was loaded into place, and then an emergency stop was made to point the barrel at the target. Rumble! With a bang, accompanied by the whistling of shells, Bremany suddenly heard something hit his tank, and while piercing a Type 29 assault gun from the side with a high-speed armor-piercing projectile, a rocket also hit his tank from the front! An anti-tank fighter armed with an RPG2 rocket launcher attacked the stationary tank from 100 meters away, and the deadly metal jet formed by the hollow warhead easily tore through the frontal armor of Tank 4 and killed the driver, igniting the flammable material inside the hull!
