Chapter 228: Fearless Resistance
"Fight, brother fight!! Da Da ...... Boom"
An unknown Polish officer, wielding a machine gun, fired heavily at the Mercedes-Benz No. 4 tank, and the sound of "crackling" fried beans greeted his heroic act with a 75mm anti-tank gun, which directly tore the Polish officer to pieces, and then with a violent explosion, he was carried into the air and sprinkled down one after another.
Tank No. 4 rushed into the position, the armored car that followed behind put down the infantry and jumped into the trenches of the Polish army, those who were not dead Polish troops tried to resist, they were greeted by a storm of bullets, do not doubt the rate of fire of the P38 submachine gun, the rifles in the hands of the remaining Polish troops in the trenches are not the opponent of the P38 submachine gun at all, and they have to retreat and aim again after firing.
Such a cumbersome step, in the face of the P38 submachine gun, can only be beaten into a hornet's nest, of course, the desperate resistance of the Polish army still caused casualties to Germany, that is, grenades, narrow trenches, finally some Polish troops threw out their waist grenades, a grenade also has to reimburse at least two or three German soldiers, the Polish army can still be the first, the second, absolutely no chance to still three lower, the swarming German army is definitely a burst of random guns, the Polish army into a sieve.
"Dada...... Boom ......" bullets flew in the trenches, grenade explosions came and went, screams were endless, the roar of tanks was deafening, the war was extremely cruel at this moment, both sides were fighting desperately for their own country, of course, the German army with an absolute advantage in equipment and weapons suffered fewer casualties, but it was absolutely impossible not to die.
The battle for the trenches was much more brutal than the duel with the tanks outside. If the Polish army is lucky, it can always kill one or two German soldiers, if it is really unlucky, not a single cushion can be pulled, then don't blame anyone, in the face of the desperate resistance of the remnants of the Polish army, the German army finally successfully occupied the first line of trenches after paying a certain price.
They did not rest, these German soldiers in the trenches immediately took their weapons and ran to the armored vehicles on the side, and then bandaged the wounds or replenished ammunition on the vehicles, and the armored vehicles did not stop after loading the German soldiers, and quickly chased the tanks in front. Their task was to continue to assault the second line of defense of the Polish army.
At this time, the Polish army was already at the end of its strong crossbows. Losing artillery, losing air supremacy, and being crushed by the torrent of steel of the German army in Germany was already meat on the chopping block. Bismarck was in the middle of a surprise attack on the second line of defense of the Polish army. The Polish troops on the 3rd line of defense began to shrink and withdraw rapidly. These Polish troops could only retreat along the trenches, and if they took the plains, the planes in the air would not agree.
The Polish troops who reached the defensive line received a dead order to "live and die with the position". Although the Polish army is far from the German army in terms of equipment, weapons and training, they are all fighting for the country, and the goal of who to fight for is very clear, so in the face of the absolute superiority of the German army, the Polish army still resists fearlessly and will never surrender in a desperate battle, but in the face of absolute strength, their heroes are destined to be ineffective.
Although the Polish army did not pose much threat to the German tank troops, at most they used a few grenades tied together and blew up the tracks of two or three No. 4 tanks, but what is the use of this, the German infantry is protecting these tanks, that is, the Polish army wants to climb on the tank, lift the lid on the top of the tank, and throw the grenade in, so the Polish army must be able to climb up! The infantry who followed him immediately turned him into a hornet's nest, saying that the top lid of the fourth tank could be locked from the inside, and it was impossible to open it from the outside.
"Kill! …… For the Motherland...... Fight with the invaders! ......" gunfire, shouting and killing are intertwined on the entire battlefield, the bravery of the Polish army can not save their fate of defeat, the spirit of not afraid of sacrifice and ** can not stop the German steel torrent, but the desperate resistance of the Polish army also temporarily dragged the German tank assault group, which made the Polish army retreat along the trench a few kilometers away from the third to the defensive line, of course, this is a good thing for the German army, the Polish retreat at this time is a good thing, now is not the time for the German army to annihilate the Polish army in large numbers, completely breaking through the Polish army's defense line is the key, and at the same time expanding the breakthrough, escorting their own huge convoy of transports through the breach.
The task of expanding the breakthrough is the business of the follow-up troops, and other German divisions must at least expand the breakthrough to about 30 kilometers, so as to ensure that the transport convoy is not attacked by the Polish artillery, of course, the air force can also help to clear the Polish artillery on both flanks, and the superiority of the German tank forces with air supremacy is unparalleled.
Bismarck and Funk's tank assault group let go of the speed and soared on the Polish plain, and the air force could only play the role of "nanny", which made the air force shout "unfair", but in this situation, it was impossible to make tactical adjustments, so it could only be arranged in this way, and the Tenth Army could only be adjusted under the Polish capital Warsaw.
Now the Tenth Army has been divided into three parts, and when the first corps of the B attack group set out, it attacked Kamena from the right from Częstorv, and Li Mo's A group attacked from the left, and after Li Mo broke through the second line of defense of the Polish army, he divided his troops and directly attacked Warsaw according to the order.
At this time, Li Mo was also beginning to relocate his "former enemy command post", and on the road was the 15th Mechanized Corps, which was followed by a "long line" composed of more than 1,500 vehicles. Li Mo's division is the establishment of this army, and the task of the entire army is to march under the city of Warsaw.
The German army still had a very high degree of mechanization, with more than 500 trucks in one division. Even if Li Mo wanted to overtake, it was impossible, so he could only move forward with the rolling traffic. Of course, this "former enemy command post" must follow the main forces, at least within 20 kilometers.
On the afternoon of the second day of the battle, Bismarck stopped at a distance of about twenty kilometers from Warsaw, set up a cordon position, waited for the follow-up troops, and then established a consolidated ring defensive position, waited for the follow-up troops of the 15th Mechanized Army, and then launched a siege battle.
The commander of the 10th Army, General Reichenau, also led the people of the headquarters to the ring defense position in the middle of the night, and the command departments were merged together, but General Reichenau still merged the command of the group army and the army, and the divisional command headquarters was still retained, but the divisional command headquarters must go to the front line, so Li Mo's former enemy must go to the front line, and Rommel could not prevent Li Mo from going to the front line.
Admiral Reichenau immediately set about arranging the alert and attacking forces, and the 7th Light Panzer Division was still the main force of the offensive, and the 1st Mechanized Infantry Division followed the 7th Light Panzer Division to occupy the area captured by the 7th Light Panzer Division. The remaining 2nd Mechanized Infantry Division was on the outskirts of the city, and their task was mainly to guard the ammunition supplies.
