target, the 32nd Panzer Division, which was in the salient and had lost flank protection; Location, Arras. John Bull vowed to teach the Nazi Panzer Division, who had caused so much trouble, a hard lesson, to get this field back and let the Germans know why the flowers were so red.

Frankly speaking, the British did a really good job of counterattacking this time, and the Germans were still ignorant of the fact that the first encounter with the Germans failed. The reason was that the British army used the M26 Pershing heavy tank, which had extremely thick armor, especially the front armor, and the 32nd Panzer Division lacked large anti-tank guns.

At this time, the tactics of the British army were still the same, the tank was used as an infantry support tank, that is, the tank blocked bullets and shells in front, the infantry followed behind the tank, and then stopped five or six hundred meters in front of the German position, and supported the infantry charge with artillery and machine guns, even if Rudolph had an iron fist and an RPG bazooka, he couldn't hit these damn M26 Pershing tanks.

Rudolph also organized several death squads, carrying iron fists or RPG rocket launchers to fight the British M26, but unfortunately the British infantry directly beat these German death squads into a sieve. At this point, the heroism of the soldiers was meaningless.

All they could do was watch the M26 Pershing heavy tank rotate its turret, destroy the German small anti-tank guns and tanks one by one, and then storm the German positions and wreak havoc on the Germans, killing and wounding 40 tanks. Even Rudolph's aide-de-camp, Lieutenant Most, was killed by the British just 1 meter from Rudolph, and the Germans were forced to retreat.

The Goddess of Victory had already arranged her skirt to the British, and the British rejoiced, wishfully believing that it was the Goddess of Victory who was flattering them. They reaffirmed the achievements of the intelligence services: "All existing models of anti-tank guns of the Nazis, the filthy armor-piercing shells fired by them could absolutely not penetrate the armor of the Holy British Empire M26 Pershing heavy tank tank".

Churchill was convinced: victory must belong to the glorious British Empire, annihilating the 32nd Panzer Division. Open a gap in the German front, and carry out a resolute counter-assault like the Nazis, counter-encirclement of Nazi armored clusters. Invade Germany to liberate the toiling masses oppressed by the Nazis, and take that Adolf to the streets of London. Let's see the end of the confrontation with the empire on which the sun never sets, and the holy British Empire will once again play the role of savior.

Everything seemed so rosy that if I had to add a note to the British attack, it would be this: a right attack was launched at the right time, in the right place; It's just the wrong opponent. It's also hard to say anything, who made Rudolph at this time not very famous, in the days to come. The name Rudolph would be a nightmare for the British Empire, a battle of fate.

Rudolph has not suffered such a big loss since the beginning of the war, and for a proud man, it is simply unbearable. The 32nd Panzer Division, which had just been formed, was going to end up dishonorably like this? He naturally knows that due to the impact of his lone army, it is already difficult to ride a tiger at this time.

What exactly to do, how to tear the armor of that damn M26 Pershing heavy tank, this kind of technical question has no time to be studied in depth. But as the commander of the army, he must make a decision, and the honor belongs to himself. There is also a burden of responsibility. If you want to become a real celebrity, you can't just play with the wind, this is an opportunity to prove yourself. Rudolf gave a frantic order, and all the artillery of the division moved forward and concentrated fire on the M26 Pershing heavy tank tank.

It's really a fight, if you can't destroy the M26 Pershing heavy tank tank, then the 32nd Panzer Division is really finished. Apparently Rudolph's decision was reckless, looking like a gambler who had lost money, but sometimes God favored those who dared to take risks.

The next day. The British went on the offensive and threw their trump cards at the beginning. But the M26 Pershing heavy tank tank was too thick in armor and too heavy. The speed of advance is about the same as that of the infantry on foot, which is also related to the fact that the British army only used tanks as a support weapon for the infantry rather than forming tanks into separate assault groups like the Germans.

But yesterday and today are similar to tanks, today and yesterday are different, and the pride of the empire, which was indestructible yesterday, has been smashed to pieces today by others like chopping melons and vegetables. The British did not understand how the Germans had developed such a powerful anti-tank gun overnight, and if there were, why had there been no movement yesterday? Strange things happen every year, especially today, and the world has changed beyond the comprehension of the British.

There is nothing difficult to understand, the German soldiers played a decisive role in the rigid obedience of their superiors. They faithfully carried out Rudolph's decision, dragging everything that could be called a cannon to the front of the position, vowing to carry out the anti-tank to the end in order to preserve the honor of the Germanic soldiers.

So the M26 Pershing heavy tank tank tank was destroyed. It is necessary to reiterate here that the intelligence of the British was very accurate, and when the 32nd Armored Division entered Alaska, the Allied spies hidden in the city told the Allied intelligence department about the equipment of the 32nd Armored Division, which was of course extremely accurate.

It is true that the German 32nd Panzer Division did not have any type of anti-tank gun that could do any damage to the M26 Pershing heavy tank, and it was the 88 and 120 mm anti-aircraft guns used by the Germans to fight aircraft that destroyed the M26 Pershing heavy tank. It sounds very funny that a heavy tank can be destroyed with an anti-aircraft gun that fights an airplane, but it is true, it seems that the life is really hard to blame the government!

The 88 and 120-mm anti-aircraft guns were designed by the world-famous artillery manufacturer Krupp at the end of the thirties-twenties. At that time, as a defeated country in the First World War, Germany was still severely restricted in its armament development, so the gun was designed and tested at the Krupp subsidiary in Switzerland.

Krupp designers foresaw that bombers, the main targets of anti-aircraft guns, would fly higher and faster, so they chose 88 and 120 mm, which were rare large calibers at the time, and gave the projectile a high muzzle velocity, which laid the foundation for it to become an effective anti-tank weapon in the future.

The 88 and 120 mm shells are large enough, the weight must not be small, the initial velocity of the projectile is high, the mass is multiplied by the high speed, and its physical momentum and impulse are absolutely extraordinary, no wonder the armor-piercing force is so good. The moment the 88 and 120 mm anti-aircraft guns opened fire, the Arras counterattack, which the British had high hopes for, was already doomed to a gloomy end, and Nazi Germany was not exhausted.
