Chapter 725: Sentinel Battle 1

"The Fourth Assault Division will soon follow, three bomber squadrons and two fighter squadrons will cooperate with you in the battle, and if you kill your current troops behind enemy lines, you can consider going south and cooperate with other units to encircle the Fifth Army!" Soon Ruprecht's telegram came back, and by this time, it was already ten o'clock in the morning, and if the armored Mike could be faster, he could catch up with the Russians for lunch, and then Schmidt could catch up with the other party for dinner.......

The huge 1st Assault Army and its other subordinate units began to attack in formation, the long marching array began to spread its strong and powerful wings like a soaring eagle, and the eagle's deadliest talons, the Black Forest Brown Bear Battle Group, had already pounced on the Donetsk division!

"Enemy attack! Armored vehicle units of the Germans! "The scouts of the first level of the Russian division are still very discerning, at least they don't treat the armored units as cavalry, but unfortunately, they still don't have enough warning time for the main force, and almost soon after the cavalry delivered the information, Mike's armored troops have rushed over like an angry bear!

"Prepare for battle! Order the division's artillery to quickly deploy! "Under the orders of the division commander, Major General Gross, the entire division began to deploy defenses rapidly, after all, it was a standard Russian division, and after losing an avant-garde regiment, it still had nearly 18,000 men, and the four infantry battalions in front were closely placed together to form a thick defensive position formed by soldier and infantry fire.

"Crush them! Motorized infantry ready for battle. This was Lieutenant Colonel Mike's first real battle, and although he had just crushed a regiment of his opponent, he still did not underestimate the Russians, who were known as the steamrollers of Europe, when they met with real knives and guns. There are at least 4 battalions on the front, which is about 4,000 if you convert it into numbers! The huge number already represents that this battle will be more troublesome!

The 1st Separate Armored Battalion formed two staggered attack formations, while the motorized infantry behind followed and began to lay down the first infantry detachment carrying the mortar at a distance of 1,200 meters. The tactics of the entire Lancer battle group were not a reckless rhythm, and the offensive of the Bavarian Rapid Corps made full use of firepower and mobility, combining armored units, long-range artillery, close support firepower, and infantry units, and this time, they could finally be tested on the battlefield.

6 105mm self-propelled howitzers and 4 towed 150mm heavy howitzers responsible for long-range support have begun to rain bullets towards the Russian positions in front, accompanied by a burst of destructive red flames falling from the sky, a huge column of smoke covered the entire battlefield, and the hastily dug infantry bunkers could not withstand such an artillery bombardment, and hundreds of Russian soldiers had been killed by flying shrapnel and powerful blasting waves before they even saw their opponents.

Soon, a slightly long ensemble of mortars was added to the dull sound of heavy artillery, and the mortar unit, which was deployed 1,200 meters away, began to think about the key design of the target marked ahead. At 800 meters, a second infantry squad with this machine gun disembarked from the vehicle and moved to both sides, covering the panzergrenadiers from the side.

500 meters! The second row of tanks stopped and began to fire the exposed machine gun positions of the Russians with 40mm and 75mm guns, and the scattered machine guns of the Russians were covered by several 2-pound shells just after a row of bullets, and after a series of explosions, only minced meat and parts could be seen scattered on the ground. And the first row of tanks continued to press on the positions of the Russians.

When the distance between the two sides approached 300 meters, a large number of soldiers got out of the trucks and half-tracks, thanks to good fire suppression, on the way out, the infantry units did not suffer any losses, the infantry squad attacked under the command of the squad leader, the semi-automatic riflemen and grenadiers were slightly behind, and the two groups in front with submachine guns launched the final assault under the cover of friendly troops!

At this time, the front of the entire assault group was already very open. If he was facing a strong defensive line, then Mike would try to shrink the front of the attack and concentrate on opening a gap, but now, in the face of a hastily constructed line and Russian troops with few anti-armor units, he confidently expanded his front, turned a slender cavalry spear into a sharp axe, and swept sideways!

However, the intensity of the attack was not bad, although the armored forces were scattered, but a large number of mortar and machine-gun fire was fully launched! Especially after the trench sweeping team carrying submachine guns entered the combat distance, the infantry fire of both sides was completely one-sided!

The 9mm bullets like a blizzard were overwhelming the Russian soldiers who rushed up, and the network of fire formed by hundreds of machine guns spewing deadly tongues of fire made the Russian soldiers who had never seen a submachine gun completely desperate, and the rows of soldiers were swept down by the bullets like wheat harvesting. The huge numerical advantage turned into a huge casualty figure at this moment, and the attacking Russian infantry formation was instantly dented!

Rumble! Rumble! The Russian three-inch rapid-fire guns deployed in the rear also began to counterattack, and shells fell sporadically on the German offensive formation, but this was of no avail, and they were soon attacked by a variety of direct and curved fire.

With a bang, Lieutenant Colonel Mike's head made a close contact with the armor on the front of the tank, and a 3-inch shell accurately hit the inclined armor of Mike's Hu Feng assault gun, and the high-explosive shell that exploded instantly made the hull of the vehicle shake. Then, two more shells hit the tank in quick succession!

"Tell Blue Company! Lao Tzu has been attacked! Find out that damn guy! "As a command vehicle, Mike's tank is without artillery. There was only one stick to camouflage, and the blue company next to it was its guards, and the two steel lancers next to it quickly found two 3-inch rapid-fire guns that were constantly firing, and a series of 2-pounder shells and 3 75-shells instantly covered the artillery position, and after a loud bang, the two guns were sent directly into the sky along with the gun crew and a machine gun nest next to it.

The precision war machine composed of tanks, infantry and artillery quickly harvested the lives of the other party, and the 4 battalions of the Russian army did not look as strong as imagined, and there were not so many, after cleaning up the few three-inch rapid-fire guns and most of the machine guns, even if the rest were slaughtered, the battle quickly returned to the rhythm of unilateral torture, but fortunately, the Russians had a large division and would not let Mike and others get bored.
