When the frontal fire held the French down, several elite squads, one of which consisted of two soldiers with flamethrowers on their backs and several grenadiers, began to alternate under the cover of the infantry. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info and next to it, is a melee group wearing gas masks and holding submachine guns. The Germans had no intention of giving the French a chance to jump out of the trenches and fight hard!

They chose a weakly defended trench, several soldiers threw tear gas and grenades in their hands, accompanied by thick smoke and explosions, several French soldiers choked by smoke and tears just rushed out of the trench, were beaten into a sieve by the dense bullets, several soldiers immediately jumped into the trench, and then made a gesture of safety.

More elite infantry rushed in, while the machine guns suppressed the French soldiers who were trying to support the breakthrough from surface positions, and in the trenches the elite German groups with submachine guns and semi-automatic rifles were clearly more combat-ready than the French and the rifles in their hands! With the sound of gunfire like bursting beans, the German soldiers, who took full advantage of their firepower, began to gradually clear the trenches, and all the French soldiers who stood in the way were either killed or forced to retreat to the support points.

"We drove the French together like wolves driving sheep. They tried to use the bunkers and bunkers to defend against the attack, but unbeknownst to them, this was exactly what we wanted, and our purpose was to hold the French together and have a big barbecue! A non-commissioned officer of the commando said after the battle.

When all the French no longer dared to show their heads in the trenches, when all the people shivered in the muddy water and were unwilling to surrender, when the French thought that they could be safer after huddling, the flamethrowers in the hands of the German soldiers let them know what hell was!

A series of fire dragons with a length of more than 20 meters rushed out from the vent of the flamethrower, and the compressed nitrogen ejected the mixed fuel at a very high speed, and after igniting at the muzzle position, these liquids mixed with gasoline and other combustibles, with extremely high temperature and viscosity, instantly became the deadliest weapons on the battlefield!

No matter what kind of trench is built, with the flamethrower shooter's continuous short bursts, the fire dragons pass through the twisting trench, and everything they touch, whether it is a human body, a weapon, or a supporting log, quickly turns into a mass of ashes in the heat of thousands of degrees!

The most painful are the soldiers who are not killed immediately, these flamethrowers are even more deadly than napalm! With the burst shots, the entire trench was filled with flames, and from time to time there were soldiers covered in fire who roared and rolled in despair, trying to extinguish the fire on their bodies, and their struggles were likely to bring disaster to the comrades next to them, just a little touch, a life would be buried by the flames. The occasional sound of detonation meant that the flames were moving deeper along the trench.

The remaining French soldiers trapped in the fortified bunkers did not survive, and the blasting of flamethrowers and sappers turned the fortifications that the French regarded as the last resort into a great rage, and with every violent explosion and flamethrower fire, there was always at least one squad of French soldiers with their bunkers forever.

The depth of the French defense was very limited, and after breaking through the first 3 kilometers, the fragile belly of the French army was finally exposed to the sharp fronts of the German army, and after the sudden blow, the command system was becoming increasingly chaotic, and the French could only resist the German attack alone in regiments or battalions. The bunkers in the rear were even scarcer, and they could only hastily dig out a barely accommodating horizontal bunker in the wilderness.

As the elite infantry penetrated the French lines, a large number of infantry units and towed artillery began to advance in depth, quickly dividing and encircling the remaining French troops, perhaps capturing a battalion in a single attack or a regiment if they were lucky. Infantry that lacks mobility will choose to deal with these small groups of enemies on the spot, and when they encounter French troops defending the town, they will generally use temporary encirclement.

Led by a very small number of assault guns and truck guns, or even just a few half-tracks equipped with machine guns, the French defenses could be easily shattered, and the powerful 75MM rapid-fire guns did not play any role at all in the case of encounters, and were separated from the protection of the bunkers, these artillery part-time swordsmen who lost their hands were generally defenseless, and a half-track equipped with a 12.7mm machine gun carrying 8 infantry successfully captured 4 75MM rapid-fire guns and a large amount of ammunition.

"We rushed from their side, we didn't even get out of the car, we swept behind them with a large-caliber machine gun and an MG08 general-purpose machine gun, the bullet power of the large-caliber machine gun was so huge, a single bullet pierced the shield of the artillery and the French soldiers hiding behind, the ferocious fire quickly brought them to their knees, they obediently handed over their weapons, and then honestly crouched there." In this assault, the Germans once again realized the importance of both offensive and defensive armored and lightly armored units in mobile warfare.

When the Munich reconnaissance airship flew over the battlefield again, he saw the German Army driving the French Army from the north and east like a gray tide. The German offensive position was so wide, and the losses of the French in the offensive some time ago were also very huge, when the superior German army launched a counterattack, the French army on the front line did not even have the ability to resist at all!

"The only thing that could limit our success was the speed of our advance, the French troops in the rear could quickly retreat by road and rail, we did not have an air force to interdict at the campaign level, which was the most important factor affecting the outcome, and the resistance encountered by the French Third Army in the direction was stronger, they dispersed the armored forces into infantry units, and although these tanks were eventually destroyed one by one, they succeeded in hindering the pace of our offensive." The Munich airship wrote in a telegram sent back.

In the face of sudden changes, the French Third Army Group supported its colleagues at all costs under the orders of Commander Luff, and the French hastily gathered tanks, trucks, and even cars to form a patchwork mobile force to try to stop the German offensive.

Over the next two days, the French transported at least one division of troops in civilian vehicles to the appropriate position and built a line of defense with great difficulty. Although this line was quickly breached, and an entire division disappeared from the French battle sequence, it gave Xia Fei the opportunity to draw troops from the northern front to support the already collapsing front.
