Croft was ten kilometers behind the defensive position with tanks, and the situation on the front line quickly reached Croft, but Croft did not let the tanks and artillery groups behind the first line of defense open fire at this time, Croft waited, waited for most of the Soviet armored forces to reach the first line of defense, and then sent them a big meal.

"Bang bang bang...... Boom ......"

The Soviet tanks rushed to a distance of about five hundred meters, and all fifty German anti-tank guns were finally muted, and all of these anti-tank guns were destroyed by the Soviet forward tanks. Nearly 100 of the 150 Soviet tanks were destroyed, and about 50 remained, and these tanks continued to charge at the first line of German defense.

The German 75-mm anti-tank gun is still very powerful, but after all, it needs to meet the needs of the infantry, that is, it must be light, and the weight of the 75-mm anti-tank itself has reached 1,4 tons.

In this case, an artillery squad can basically move this gun for a short distance, and if a thick steel plate is added, there is no way to move it at all.

This is the end of sacrificing defense for the sake of power, which can be regarded as a reminder to Rommel how to achieve a balance between power and defense, and have enough power.

To solve this problem, we can only put this gun on the territory of the No. 4 tank, which weighs more than 10 tons, which can completely offset the recoil of this gun.

If this section of the line was defended by 50 No. 4 self-propelled anti-tank vehicles, the more than 100 light tanks of the Soviet army could only deliver food, and now the result is that all 50 anti-tank guns have been destroyed, and the Soviet army has lost more than 100 taels of tanks.

The remaining Soviet tanks charged at a fast pace, thinking that the German infantry at this time would be lambs to the slaughter, and more than a dozen tanks on their side could easily break through the position defended by the German infantry, which had lost the support of anti-tank guns, and the truth would soon make these arrogant Soviet troops pay the price.

"200 hundred meters."

"Bang bang bang...... Click...... Boom ......"

Soviet tanks kept strafing the German positions with coaxial machine guns, and shells frequently fell on the positions, but in the German positions, except for the burning incendiary bombs and the shattered anti-tank guns, not a single German infantry stuck their heads out of the trenches.

"150 meters."

The Germans did not react, at this time the German infantry were all squatting in the trenches, and there were a large number of "iron fist" hands in the trenches on the outer edge, these Germans did not tremble or tremble at all, but held the iron fist in their hands tightly and looked at their nearest commander.

They were waiting for the commander's order, as long as the commander did not give the order, even if the Soviet tanks ran over their leader, they would not flee in a hurry, this is discipline and rigour.

Each German company or platoon sent an observer, who could use a small mirror to observe the situation outside the trenches, and of course the small mirror was also the target of machine gun fire from Soviet tanks.

The firing range of the German "Iron Fist" anti-tank rocket has reached 150 meters, but the commander of this line of defense is afraid that the Soviet tanks behind will not enter the firing range, and if the tanks in front are destroyed by the infantry, they will be scared away, so the commander of this trench is waiting for the remaining more than 10 tanks of the Soviet army to enter the firing range.

"100 meters."

"80 meters."

"Bang ......"

A red flare rose into the air, and this was the order, and the "Iron Fist" anti-tank fighters in the first trench on the first line of defense slammed into their hands and quickly aimed their iron fists at the tanks of the Soviet troops close to the ruler.

Of course, the Soviet tanks are still frantically firing blindly at the first trench, and some German "Iron Fist" anti-tank fighters will also be killed by this blind indiscriminate shooting, of course, there are such cases, but there will definitely not be many, and the comrades next to the anti-tank fighters killed by the Soviet army will immediately step forward and pick up the "Iron Fist" anti-tank rockets on the ground and continue to aim at the Soviet tanks.

"Snort...... Sneer...... Boom...... Boom ......"

Hundreds of "Iron Fist" anti-tank rockets flew towards the Soviet tanks with long flames, and a Soviet tank would receive at least two "Iron Fists", and the armor-piercing ability of these "Iron Fists" was about 110 mm.

The T34 and Sherman tanks of the Soviet army were directly torn apart from the front armor, and some of the tanks were killed, and more than 50 Soviet tanks were wiped out in a blink of an eye.

The Soviet troops in the other offensive sections were in a similar situation, easily breaking through the first line of defense by the German army, and then crushing the first line of defense built by the German army, these more than 200,000 elite Soviet troops were full of confidence, and the easy success made them think that the German army was nothing more than that.

Their strikers all ended the same way, and after fighting out the German anti-tank guns, they were eliminated by the German "Iron Fist", and this situation was quickly reported to Zhukov, who was the commander-in-chief of the campaign, and it was no secret that the German "Iron Fist" was not a secret, Zhukov knew it for a long time, and even the performance of the "Iron Fist" Zhukov also knew.

After a short thought, Zhukov decided to continue the attack, but Zhukov still made some adjustments, Zhukov did not let his tanks attack the first line of defense of the German army now.

Instead, like attacking the first line of defense, first use a large number of rocket artillery and artillery to plow the German positions, even if the German army has an "iron fist", what can the "Katyusha" and thousands of artillery directly turn the first line of defense of the German army into a fire purgatory, and everything will be wiped out with the fierce shelling.

Zhukov's idea was not to make a mistake, first talk to the "Katyusha" with artillery, and wait until a large number of German troops in the defensive positions were eliminated before launching an attack, and any threat was removed.

After the Soviet tank unit was shelled, it was enough to directly crush it, and the Soviet army's artilleryism was still very prevalent, and even the later Rommel was deeply affected, and Zhukov was also an artilleryist.

The Soviet armored forces temporarily stopped the offensive, and stopped a few kilometers before the first line of defense, the commander of the SS Panzer Division, Croft, immediately discovered the abnormal situation of the Soviet troops, and the current short calm on the battlefield was the prelude to a more fierce attack, and this abnormal situation tested the adaptability of the first-line commanders.

Croft moved, but Croft did not call the German attack of the first line of defense, but let the German infantry in this section immediately withdraw from the first line of defense, and then defend five kilometers, these retreating German infantry did not retreat slowly, Croft asked them to run and retreat, and discard all bulky equipment.
