vs 345 You hit yours, I hit me
Time on the battlefield is the best evidence of relativity, for China's Juque wheeled armored battle group, time flies, it seems that two bullet boxes have been scuttled through the marching column of a German regiment, and it seems that the combat effectiveness of the German army is not much higher than that of the Russian Maozi. In the eyes of the Germans, time is tormented, and a regiment of more than 2,000 people can be regarded as a certain combat strength, but on the way to the march, it was attacked by a burst of artillery fire and then strafed by an airplane, and before they woke up, they ran into a bunch of spit peas, no, it was a wheeled armored convoy spraying fire snakes to crush it, in this era when there were no individual anti-tank weapons, the guys in the hands of the soldiers could not pose a threat to the armored targets, could it be that they could not use the sapper shovels to cut the wheels of the other side?
After the gouging, the armored convoy began to march all the way to the east, along the way the two flank regiments of the German army also fought with the armored companies on both sides, but unfortunately in order to pursue the French army, they did not even bring infantry guns, after a gust of wind swept through, leaving a place of chicken feathers of the Germans, the Juque battle group continued their armed parade, but at this time there were already casualties in the team, after all, the soldiers on the transport vehicle behind the wheeled armor leaned out of the body and shot, and it was inevitable to become the target of the German army, The marksmanship that had been honed during the two years of trench warfare was not comparable to that of the Wehrmacht, who had been shooting targets on the training ground. Although the Germans could not stop the Wehrmacht's ranks, it was still possible to cause a little casualties, and the desperate Germans used the method of cluster grenades to exchange the lives of a squad for a wheeled armored vehicle of the Wehrmacht, although it was only two dead and two wounded, but the self-expansion of the soldiers of the battle group who blindly believed that the armor was invincible was no less than a basin of ice water splashed head-on.
Zhu Yunjie also realized that the German army was on guard, and his thin-skinned and stuffed canned food could not really be regarded as an invulnerable heavy cavalry. If a large group of Germans destroys the road or simply prepares small-caliber rapid-fire guns to ambush themselves, it is possible that the division will be disadvantageous or even annihilated. Zhu Yunjie is also a strategic Confucian general, he is already very satisfied with the record of defeating the opponent's three regiments by rushing forward, it is impossible to rely on a reinforced regimental force to resist the opponent's two divisions, while he has not exceeded the scope of his own artillery support, Zhu Yunjie immediately ordered all departments to shrink, line up in a left wedge formation and turn south, not only can drag the enemy away from the canal, but also cover their own artillery positions, if the other party is not fooled, It is not impossible to rely on super maneuverability and then intersperse detours from the flanks. Zhu Yunjie's tactic seems simple, but it uses the reasonable combination of firepower of the troops, the instantaneous firepower output is fierce, and the maneuverability far exceeds the advantage of the German army. If the Germans can stabilize their positions, then the heavy artillery will be arranged. It is indeed possible for the infantry to block the penetration of the Juque battle group under the cover of the accompanying small-caliber guns, but there is no way to speed up the time, and without effective air support and fire support, it is simply an impossible task to encircle and annihilate this armored force in the plains of northern France.
General Hausen of the German Third Army was scratching his head at this time, and thinking about it, the offensive, which had been preparing for more than three months and concentrating most of the resources of the central line of the northern front, progressed like a miracle at first, defeating the French Fifth Infantry Division and crushing two Moroccan divisions and an Indian infantry regiment. Seeing that everything was going more smoothly than planned, the German Third Army couldn't help but launch a canal offensive in advance, intending to cross the canal and establish a consolidated salient on the west bank, but I didn't expect to be able to chase the French like ducks at the beginning, but the forward approached less than ten kilometers of the canal and was actually cleaned up by a strange armored convoy of the enemy, and the next three regiments unfolded in a zigzag, and they could not stop the counterattack of the other side, and they were about to reach the main force of their own side. General Hausen was not worried about the enemy's assault, the thin-skinned wheeled armor was definitely no match for rapid-fire guns, and if the striker had not left all his heavy weapons in his position in pursuit of the enemy, he would not have lost so pitifully. Not even a whole company was withdrawn.
"Report to the general, our artillery positions have been deployed, anti-aircraft camouflage and anti-aircraft positions have been completed."
"Very well, let them be on standby, attack at any time." Hausen felt that if he could accurately locate the opponent, he could use a heavy artillery cluster to wipe out the opponent several kilometers away, "Order the 6th Infantry Division and the 8th Infantry Division to encircle the opponent as soon as possible and use sticky tactics against them." ”
The staff officer who had just turned around and was about to give the order was stopped by General Hausen, "By the way, let the 12th Flying Wing hurry up and send aircraft to support, and we can't let the Chinese planes run rampant anymore, especially to detect the movements of the opponent's armored group, understand?" ”
Looking at the staff officer who went to give the order, General Hausen couldn't help but smile bitterly, speaking of which, this sticky tactic was proposed by the Chinese General Sean Wu during his last visit to Germany. However, the purpose at that time was to discuss how to use the German national division of the Eastern Front to restrain the Russian Cossack cavalry, and now it is found that this tactic of constantly harassing the other side, sticking to the other side, and eating the opponent with high mobility through artillery fire and infantry cooperation is actually more suitable for dealing with this armored cluster, perhaps this is the punishment of the Chinese who chose the wrong side.
Not to mention that the Germans quickly switched from marching to a slow-advancing geese-shaped formation, and the planes and heavy artillery were all sabre-rattling waiting for the Chinese to deliver food to the door. Shan said that Zhu Yunjie received the reconnaissance information sent by the Fourth Flying Wing, and understood that the other party was already waiting for the net, he groaned, thinking about how to deal with the next move.
If the side turns to the southwest and seeks an opportunity to cross the canal, it will naturally ensure the safety of the troops, but it is impossible to delay the other side for 48 hours. Now he has defeated the opponent's forward, but the loss of five or six thousand people is not a big problem for the main force of the Third Army, if the other side is allowed to continue to advance, it will be able to reach the ferry within 5 hours, although the current French army has crossed the river, but it is a bit extravagant to rely on thousands of routs and more than 10,000 North African indigenous soldiers wearing big robes and head-wrapped bands to hold the ferry, and they can only continue to delay the other party's itinerary for now, or?
A bold idea popped out of Brigadier General Zhu Yunjie's mind, to lure the enemy a little bit, break through more, quickly intersperse, and smash the opponent's hinterland, if the opponent's arms supply is cut off, let alone forcibly crossing the canal, if you hesitate a little to get rid of the fate of being surrounded and annihilated by the coalition forces, you have to talk about it.
Several staff officers and company commanders were all bold young men, and the wolf pack tactic proposed by Boss Zhu was simply tailor-made for light armored troops. An armored company with half of the infantry to harass the other party, so that the other party thinks that this is the main force of the armored force, and then once the other party mobilizes troops to besiege, the emptiness of the flank is the lower part of the other armored companies, interspersed with breakthroughs, and then it is Sun Xingzhi who drilled into the belly of the iron fan princess, and it is good to turn him upside down.
"There are three things to keep in mind in this battle." Zhu Yunjie stretched out three fingers, and instructed his subordinates with a solemn face, "First, it is speed, you must not be entangled, you must fight fast and slow, and fight and walk before the other party reacts, if the other party is on guard, if you can't open the situation in five minutes, you have to find another way out, anyway, you don't stipulate the route, as long as you enter the hinterland of the other party, it is your world, don't be polite if you should fight and burn." ”
The officers laughed, where are their tiger and wolf divisions polite guys who understand.
"The second is to keep in touch, to maintain contact with the command and friendly forces, especially when returning to our own position, we must contact the command, and when we communicate well with the French before we can appear in front of our own front, Maxim can kill people, and Hatch Chase can do the same."
"Third, it is coordination, the integration of air and ground, and the coordination of infantry and artillery, so that the Germans can see this lofty way of playing, and when they can call for fire support, don't force themselves, everything is to preserve the living force. Have you memorized them all? ”
"Report sir, I get it perfectly."
"Okay, I'll talk about the specific deployment, the first armored company you and the cluster headquarters, the fourth, fifth, and ninth companies of the infantry are responsible for the task of luring the enemy, and the second armored company is looking for fighters from the left flank...."
"How so?" Until now, Haosen can't figure out where his command mistakes are, everything is in order, but he was beaten by dozens of armored small reptiles of the other side, and only 30,000 of the 50,000 army remained.
At that time, General Haosen originally thought that the main force of the other party had been captured, and the subsequent three divisions had been returned to the formation, and began to encircle the other party according to the plan, but he did not expect that the other party would begin to retreat to the southwest with a false shot, and the speed made Haosen unexpected, he did not expect that the Chinese light armored troops who had just been coaxed and planned to step on the ground would actually plan to retreat as soon as they made contact and turned around, in this way, it seems impossible to keep the other party, after all, the two legs can't run the opponent's wheels.
Then came the beginning of the nightmare, a small armored force actually took advantage of the opportunity of their own encirclement of the main force, quickly interspersed from the flank, and coincidentally, the right flank was also penetrated in the same way, two armored vehicles in a row entered the hinterland of the third army, although there were not many people, but these three groups of enemies seemed to have no purpose at all, just wandering in their own back garden, and encountered a hammer that was not pleasing to the eye. In the middle of the trip, these three small armored clusters actually defeated half of the division's infantry, and also gave the supply point to the point, the power of the 5,000 large-caliber shells in the inventory made Haosen's desire to cry without tears, and now the Germans have actually had a lot more men and horses than when the battle just began, but unfortunately they met this Chinese general who did not follow common sense, and Haosen was also very helpless, who had ever seen this kind of parade behind the opponent's position like a wind god?
Now the supplies can't keep up, the troops are also very tired, think about it is also being crushed by the opponent's armor several times a day, no matter how the German officers agitate, the morale of the soldiers is extremely low. Such a method of adapting measures to local conditions actually became a wonderful military strategy in the eyes of many military experts and professors in later generations, which made Zhu Yunjie a little embarrassed.
