When it comes to fighting, the Germans are definitely much stronger than the Austrians, who also belong to the Germanic nation, they have long known that in the face of a defensive line with machine guns and mortars, there is no future for relying solely on infantry charges and blind fire suppression, and the Germans have long learned the Storm Commando plus fire blocking style that was only explored in the late stage of World War 1 in history, and it is very useful in the face of the Russian army attacking East Prussia, and this time, the Germans want to repeat their glory in Silesia!

ALTHOUGH NOT MUCH HEAVY ARTILLERY WAS PREPARED DUE TO THE RAPID PROGRESS, THE GERMANS STILL CONCENTRATED 75MM HOWITZERS TO SUPPORT THE ATTACKING TROOPS, AND THEN A LARGE NUMBER OF ELITE INFANTRY WITH TRENCH MORTARS, MINE-THROWERS AND SUBMACHINE GUNS RUSHED OUT OF THE FORWARD POSITIONS, THE VARIOUS BATTLE GROUPS COVERED EACH OTHER'S ADVANCES, AND PROFESSIONAL SAPPERS CLEARED MINEFIELDS AND BARBED WIRE. THE GERMANS MOVED VERY QUICKLY, WITHOUT DRAGGING MUD AND WATER, THEY USED TRICKY FIREPOWER TO SUPPRESS THE OPPONENT'S COUNTERATTACK, GRADUALLY APPROACHING THE TRENCH, THROWING MORTAR SHELLS AND GRENADES INTO THE TRENCH, AND BECAUSE OF THE ATTACK OF THE 75MM LIGHT HOWITZER, THE 82MM MORTAR IN THE REAR OF THE RUSSIAN ARMY WAS FORCED TO QUIET.

Just when everything was going well for the German army, the sound of artillery coming from the rear of the Russian position made the Germans feel a little uneasy, but fortunately, the opponent's attack was not fierce, but specifically used to suppress the German artillery, and several 75MM howitzers were destroyed because they were too far ahead. But it didn't matter, under the guidance of the storm commandos, a large number of German troops had already followed, and they would form waves of continuous attacks to finally defeat the opponent, the Germans believed. Both in terms of tactical level and equipment, they have an absolute advantage, although the automatic rifles of the Russians are more powerful. But the density of fire is a bit low, and after entering the trenches is the world of submachine guns, and according to the intelligence of the Germans, it seems that the Russians are not equipped with many submachine guns.

Suddenly, a slightly muffled sound sounded from both flanks of the Russian position, somewhat similar to that of machine guns, but with a crisper citrus tone. And it is somewhat heavy compared to heavy machine guns. It seems to be a weapon somewhere between a gun and a cannon. Tongues of fire erupted from the well-camouflaged bunker, not as dense as the machine guns, but much more powerful. A German soldier who was caught off guard was hit by a red fireball, and the powerful ammunition directly broke the unlucky soldier in two, and even the German soldier looked at the lower half of his body that had been out of his control in disbelief while being cut in half!

In an instant, a storm of flesh swept across the battlefield. The German soldiers, who had no time to dodge, were beaten to the ground by this powerful automatic weapon. And when the Germans tried to counterattack, they found that the firing point was far beyond the range of the weapons in their hands, whether it was a trench mortar or a grenadier canister, they could only hit a few hundred meters, while the opponent's firing point was at least about 800 meters away from themselves.

What shocked the Germans was that at such a distance, this weapon still maintained high accuracy and great power, and at this distance, the Germans' MG08 machine gun could only suppress the target at most. However, the opponent was able to accurately kill the German firepower points hidden behind the mound or bunker, and the German troops who relied on the undulating terrain and improvised bunkers to resist suddenly discovered it. The bullet could easily pierce through dirt and sandbags and smash the machine gun and shooter in the back, leaving anyone almost helpless if they were scratched even slightly, even if it only hit the non-vital parts of the arm, but the rapid blood loss was enough to render any first aid useless.

The German army is indeed determined to fight, especially the German army that can be selected for the Storm Commando. But no matter how tenacious the nerves are, there is a limit, watching the comrades in front of them being cut in half by this mysterious weapon, and watching the other party wantonly slaughter far beyond their range. The Germans are also afraid, and what is even more terrifying is that the light artillery that can destroy these weapons has been suppressed by the artillery of the Russian army, and the Russians seem to have used all the barreled artillery to suppress the German artillery, while the frontal infantry has been handed over to machine guns and mortars.

"It's really enjoyable, I have to say, this is the most practical weapon that Huaxia has provided us." A 50-S MACHINE GUN SHOOTER SAID AS HE FIRED, WHILE THE AMMUNITION FEEDER NEXT TO HIM SENT OVER A LONG 12.7 X 108 MM BULLET CHAIN. The only fly in the ointment is that this machine gun is air-cooled, and after a while it must be stopped, but this problem is not too big, and under the command of experienced commanders, they can maintain the continuity of fire by alternating designs. After the loss of artillery, the new 50 machine gun became the real king of the battlefield!

Although the Germans tried to rush through this life-and-death line consisting of 50 machine guns through various measures such as smoke bombs and roundabouts, how could they be said to rush at a distance of several hundred meters? A large number of equipped MP18 submachine guns became an ornament, because they could not reach the target, and the mortars, which were regarded as a sharp weapon for attacking, also became a burden, because they could not reach the target, and the machine gun crew was destroyed or suppressed at the first time, and when the German soldiers tried to resist with the Mauser rifle in their hands, the automatic rifle on the opposite side easily pinned it to the ground with several times the projection.

Although the Germans tried their best to save their lives, they tried their best to keep their bodies down and hide in any corner they could find on the battlefield, but none of them could stop the scythe of death on the other side! The whole attack disintegrated in an instant, and the Germans began to be frightened and began to struggle to withdraw. Even with smoke bombs and fire cover, the Germans involved in the attack suffered heavy casualties.

"Except for a very few positions where our army formed a breakthrough, a huge part of our offensive ended in failure, this Russian army is very elite, and it is equipped with supernumerary automatic weapons and artillery, they are very confident in themselves, almost all of the artillery is used to suppress our artillery, and in the confrontation at the battalion and company level, the opponent can disintegrate our offensive with only light weapons and battalion and company support fire."

"We have also dragged the fighting in parts of the area into close combat, thinking that with good equipment and highly qualified officers and men we can open the gap, but even in the trenches. Our troops still could not gain an advantage, and the opponents were also armed with a large number of submachine guns. If our Storm Assault Battalion is the elite of a division, then the combat effectiveness of this Russian army in front of us is almost equal to that of our elite troops. And they also have a particularly long range. AND THE EXTREMELY POWERFUL MACHINE GUN, ACCORDING TO THE REPORT OF THE BATTLEFIELD, THE BUCKLE OF THIS MACHINE GUN IS MORE THAN 10MM. The length of the bullet is more than 10 centimeters! This weapon is definitely the strongest blow to personnel and morale! At present, our army does not have weapons and equipment that can compete with it. ”

Looking at the battle report sent by the staff officer, the commander of the German Eighth Army, Hindenburg, looked at the map with a blue face, the situation is not good now, the Russian Eighth and Third armies have completed the reorganization with the help of this suddenly killed force, although at the beginning the surprise attack of the German and Austrian training army brought some casualties to the Russian army. But it was only a rout, and it did not cause much damage, just when the Germans wanted to expand the results of the battle. This army, which had never been noticed, held the Germans to death and inflicted heavy losses, and for the following days the Germans were unconvinced. Continued investment in elite troops. The artillery that followed in the rear also began to suppress it, but who would have thought that with the arrival of heavy weapons, the Germans still could not open the gap.

The three German armies transferred to Austria-Hungary actually did not bring all their belongings over, and a large number of 150 cannons and 210 howitzers were stranded on the mainland or in the rear because of transportation problems, but according to German estimates, the 105MM cannon alone was enough, and as a result, in this exchange, the heavy artillery used by both sides gradually increased. EVEN 122MM CANNONS WERE FOUND IN THE RUSSIAN ARMY, AND THESE ULTRA-LONG-RANGE GUNS ENGAGED GERMAN HEAVY ARTILLERY UNITS. Neither side can completely suppress the other, and among the guys at the front. EVEN IF THE GERMANS WERE ABLE TO CONCENTRATE THEIR CONSIDERABLE FORCES TO LAUNCH A COUNTERATTACK, THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN SEVERELY DAMAGED BY THE 155MM HEAVY HOWITZERS HIDING THERE IN THE UNKNOWN WAY.

As a result, after several days of firefighting, the Russian troops on the opposite side suffered heavy losses, while one German division responsible for the frontal attack was almost disabled, and the remaining divisions were forced to move to the rear for correction. After the remaining 2 armies of the German army took over, Hindenburg found that the Russian 3rd and 8th armies had re-formed a defensive line, and this unit was also deployed in key places, forming a battlefield confrontation, the only difference was that this time the opponent's connection had no obvious weaknesses, and if you wanted to fight, you could only fight hard!

If all his subordinates are Germans, then there is no need to say that they will go directly, but there are only 2 German armies that he can use now, and the rest are all Austrians, and there are two Russian armies on the opposite side, which together can fight at least 500,000, in addition to tens of thousands of elite Russian troops. Fighting in the wilderness, it is difficult to defeat the opponent, and the most fearful thing is that you will attack it, and as a result, the Austro-Hungarian army on both wings will be defeated, and then surrounded by others, how many people are there in 2 armies? It's only about 70,000 people. Moreover, there are no armored troops in his hands, and it is really difficult to cut through the opponent's defense line.

Just when the Russian-Austrian front formed a confrontation, the situation on the Russian-German front was not optimistic, the Russians huddled themselves in reinforced concrete bunkers and trenches, although the German siege artillery could smash important support points to pieces, but the progress was equally slow, and now the time has come to October, winter is coming soon, and it is obviously impossible to solve Russian Poland in a short time. If you want to fight, you have to wait until the beginning of spring next year! Unlike history, while the stalemate on the Western Front was formed, the German offensive on the Eastern Front also seemed to come to a standstill, which is very abnormal!
