Bismarck's trouble is lifted, Luxembourg's trouble is coming, that is, the artillery of the 11th French Panzer Division has been arranged at this time, you must know that there are a lot of artillery in a French armored division, 105 mm howitzers, there are 24 guns, even if it is 150 mm heavy artillery, there are eight in a French division, four more than the German army.

The weapons of the French army were really not much worse than those of Germany at the beginning of World War II, and the French artillery was significantly superior to the German artillery, and the German artillery was inferior to the British and French artillery in terms of range, mainly due to the restrictions of the Treaty of Versailles.

Since France is not much worse than Germany in terms of weapons and equipment, the main reason why France is defeated is France's tactical thinking, they are still at the level of World War I, Britain and France do not know how to use tank troops until now, they only know that tanks are used to support infantry attacks, and such a country is not unjustly defeated by Germany in a "blitzkrieg".

At the beginning of World War II, Germany's troops, weapons, resources and other aspects were inferior to the Allies, why could Germany sweep away the leaves in the autumn wind? The main thing is the advance and application of Germany's tactical thinking, the "blitzkrieg" was used by Germany to the extreme, what Anglo-French forces, the Soviet Red Army, all knelt down and sang about conquest, if it were not for the Soviet Union's unparalleled strategic depth and severe cold to drag Germany, World War II would still have to be fought.

The threat to the Luxembourg tank forces also comes from the howitzers and anti-tank guns of the French army, the 37 mm anti-tank guns equipped by the French troops, the penetration of this anti-tank gun itself is not strong, but it can fire super-caliber grenades, and the penetration of 500 meters reaches 110 mm, although the loader has to run to the front of the cannon to reload, which is just a little dangerous, but the German No. 4 tank cannot withstand the super-caliber grenade fired by the 37-mm anti-tank gun anyway.

Every French division, like the Germans, was equipped with an anti-tank battalion, and while the French were engaged in tank battles with the Germans, their anti-tank guns and howitzers began to be actively deployed. Of course, this could not escape the observation of Rommel's "Eye of God", and while Luxemburg retreated to lure the French tanks, Rommel certainly could not order his own heavy artillery to destroy the French artillery.

As soon as Luxemburg's counterattack began, Rommel ordered the heavy artillery group to bombard the anti-tank artillery group and heavy artillery group of the 11th Panzer Division of the French army, and the French artillery and anti-tank guns had just been deployed in place, and as a result, the artillery under Rommel commanded them to wipe them out, leaving only potholes everywhere, as well as the stumps and broken arms and broken artillery.

Rommel's "Eye of God" is like a reconnaissance satellite in later generations, and all the enemy's deployments cannot escape the detection of the "Eye of God", even if the combat strength of the army is similar to that of the German army, the German army commanded by Rommel can easily defeat the French armored division troops.

The commander of the 11th French Panzer Division was not a fool after all, but after he lost the anti-tank guns and artillery in his hands, he immediately understood that the German troops on the opposite side had premeditated! If you don't run, I'm afraid that the whole army will be wiped out.

The commander of the 11th French Armored Division, who could not care about the call of the 4th Infantry Division of North Africa, immediately ordered his tanks and troops to retreat, and he and the 4th Infantry Division of North Africa had already agreed, and the two divisions would attack the village of Philipsville together, and the 11th French Armored Division began to escape, and the 4th Infantry Division of North Africa became alone, and the most incomprehensible thing was that the 11th Armored Division did not notify the 4th Infantry Division of North Africa to flee together.

Most of the division commanders of the 11th Panzer Division wanted the 4th Infantry Division in North Africa to drag the Germans, so that they could escape calmly, and it should be the case according to common sense, after all, the speed of the Panzer Division's escape was very fast, but the commander of the 11th French Panzer Division miscalculated, Rommel originally planned to annihilate them first, how could he give them a chance to escape.

The heavy artillery in Rommel's hand was not polite, and the shells were violently poured on the retreating French 11th Panzer Division, and a 150-heavy gun was a large crater with a diameter of about five meters, and the absolute killing distance was ten meters.

Countless shells rained down on the retreating French ranks, countless soldiers' stumps were carried into the air, and then thrown around, and those wounded by shrapnel let out terrible screams.

Every shell was a bloody storm, the troops were bombarded indiscriminately by the enemy without any shelter, and the elite troops could not withstand it, and the French collapsed, and they went from an orderly retreat to an escape.

Every French soldier wanted to leave this hellish place, full of screaming wounded, burning wreckage, corpses with missing arms and legs, romantic Gallic chickens fleeing in terror, hating only their parents for giving birth to two legs.

Gallic chickens escaped without being bombarded by artillery? The answer is no, Rommel just wants to blow up the Gallic chickens to the ground, and they don't have the slightest will to resist, to be honest, Rommel doesn't seem to kill too much, but Rommel doesn't want his men to have large-scale casualties because of the resistance of the Gallic chickens, which is the result that no commander wants to appear - the dead and poor are not as good as the dead friends, this is the iron law of the battlefield.

Luxemburg's tank troops mixed dozens of armored vehicles began to pursue the French army, the French tanks must have run ahead, but those infantry could not outrun the German tank pursuit troops, and the French army, which was blown to pieces, did not wait for the German tanks to shoot, and directly raised their hands and surrendered on the spot.

They have lost all their heavy weapons except for a few light weapons, and if they still resist stubbornly in this case, they can only be annihilated. The romantic Gallic chicken is not a fool, nor is he a warrior who sees death as if he were at home, and he surrenders so cleanly.

This is the rule of Rommel's 7th Panzer Division, several armored vehicles with loudspeakers shouted while pursuing, and more French troops chose to surrender on the spot, giving up meaningless escape, and they couldn't run if they wanted to!

Luxembourg's tank forces did not stop at the French infantry captives, but continued the pursuit, with only three or four armored vehicles remaining to contain the prisoners. The degree of mechanization of the French army is not low, and an armored division has no fewer vehicles and motorcycles than the German army, and the speed of escape of these French troops with vehicles is certainly not slow.

Ten minutes later, a ridiculous thing appeared, the French tanks ran out of fuel, and the remaining eighty or ninety tanks lay on their stomachs one after another, and the tanks without fuel were iron coffins for the German armored forces.

They immediately abandoned their tanks and fled on foot, and the time was so tight that they didn't have time to destroy their tanks, and those French troops with vehicles had already run in front of them, and the French tank crews who had no way to go to the sky and no way to the ground could only obediently raise their hands and surrender.
