On the Moscow front, after completing the encirclement of Moscow, the Imperial Army began its offensive on Moscow. Six armies, attacking the positions of the German-Russian forces from six directions. In order to minimize the casualties of the troops, the armored units of the six armies and the armored units of the two armored corps were thrown into the offensive.

Although, with tanks for street fighting, it will take great risks. On narrow streets, the probability of a tank being destroyed is much higher than in plains. However, the attacking forces were already at a disadvantage during the street fighting. If the tank can attract enemy fire and destroy fortifications such as fixed enemy fire points, it can greatly reduce the casualties of the troops.

Moreover, the Germans now lack anti-tank weapons. They have very few weapons to attack tanks, relying at most on explosive packs or cluster grenades. It's just that whether it's an explosive pack or a cluster grenade, you need to get close to the tank. This is very difficult to perform. In addition to the coaxial machine gun in front of the tank, there was an additional machine gun in the place where the mechanics were located. In addition, there was a 12.7 mm machine gun above the tank. It can be said that the self-defense weapon of the tank is still very powerful. Coupled with the protection of the infantry who fought with the tanks, it was even more impossible for the enemy to get close to the tanks. In such a situation, the tank can undoubtedly play a great role in street fighting. Provided, of course, that the opposing side does not have enough anti-tank weapons. Otherwise, in the narrow streets, tanks would be the best targets. The loss paid in that way would be enough to make the upper echelons of the Imperial Army feel distressed.

Compared to the Reichs, the German Army was severely lacking in anti-tank weapons. Similar to the weapons used in the Imperial Army's anti-aircraft guns. It is still being imitated, to equip the troops. It's going to take a long time. As for individual anti-tank weapons, the Imperial Army was still developing. Not to mention the Germans. As for the Russians, not to mention, all their weapons were supported by the Germans, from artillery to rifle bullets, all of which were brought by the Germans. Even the Germans were not equipped with advanced anti-tank weapons, and they were even less likely to have them.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "Fierce artillery bombardment is sounding, and thousands of artillery pieces of the six armies of the Imperial Army are frantically pouring shells into the city of Moscow. It was not only the positions of the German-Russian forces outside Moscow that came under intensive artillery fire. Even the buildings in the city were not spared. Many well-known buildings were destroyed in the shelling, and even the Kremlin was shelled by several heavy artillery shells, resulting in the destruction of a palace. The Chinese* military doesn't bother with how important these structures are. If they want to occupy all of Moscow, they must eliminate the threat as much as possible. It is better to use artillery shells to destroy the resisting German-Russian forces than to fill them with soldiers' lives.

Although, because of logistical supply reasons. The supply of shells is already very difficult. However, the artillery preparation of several thousand guns of the Imperial Army lasted for most of the day. Millions of shells were fired into Moscow, reducing swathes of the bustling city to rubble. The German-Russian forces in the defense line also paid a lot of losses. Although they had already dug anti-artillery holes before. However, the fortifications of civil structures. It was difficult to withstand the bombardment of heavy artillery. After being hit by heavy artillery in a row, even the anti-artillery holes would be blown up, and the soldiers of the German-Russian army who were hiding inside. They were all buried alive inside.

On the afternoon of September 26, 1863, after the completion of fire preparations. The Imperial Army went on the offensive. All six armies sent strong forces to attack the positions of the German-Russian forces. The first to be attacked was undoubtedly the positions outside the city. After being plowed by the Imperial Army with heavy artillery fire, the fortifications on these positions had been almost destroyed.

But. At this time, the artillery positions of the German-Russian forces in the city also opened fire. The German Army also attaches great importance to artillery, although there is not much left of the Russian army's heavy artillery. However, the German-Russian forces combined still had thousands of artillery pieces in the city. When the artillery of the Imperial Army opened fire before, the artillery of the German-Russian army remained silent. Now Moscow is under siege, and no war materials can be brought in. So, they have to conserve ammunition. Instead of wasting artillery shells and the artillery of the Chinese Army for artillery battles, it is better to pour artillery shells on the infantry of the Chinese Army in order to achieve the goal of fully killing and injuring the living forces of the Chinese Army.

When the German-Russian artillery fire rang out, the heavy artillery units of the Imperial Army immediately began to suppress. All 155-mm heavy howitzers and 155-mm heavy cannons, began to fire at the artillery positions of the German-Russian coalition. However, the artillery positions of the German-Russian army were scattered in various hidden places in the city, and it was almost impossible to completely suppress them. Under the heavy artillery fire of the German-Russian army, the attacking Imperial Army paid a lot of casualties. However, the arrogance of the artillery of the German-Russian army ended there.

"Buzz", there was a sound in the sky like bees flying. I saw a large group of black dots flying in the sky. When these black dots got closer, they realized that they were simply silver planes. Flying on top were a series of light 'Haidongqing' 2 fighters, and there were hundreds of them. Flying below are a series of bombers that remind the huge bombers. In addition to the 'Falcon' dive bomber, which often appears on the battlefield, there is also the 'Hongyan' 2 bomber.

Unlike the Falcon dive bomber, the Hongyan 2 bomber is a horizontal bomber. Although the accuracy of the bomb delivery is not as accurate as that of the Falcon dive bomber, the bomb load is much larger than that of the Falcon dive bomber. The bomb load of the original "Hongyan" bomber reached one ton. With a more powerful engine and a strengthened fuselage structure, the bomb load of the Hongyan-2 bomber was increased to 1.6 tons. The maximum range has also been increased from 500 km to 800 km. The maximum range of the 'Hongyan' 3 bomber, which is being developed in China, will be increased to more than 1,000 km.

The 'Hongyan' 2 bombers that appeared in the skies over Moscow this time were two groups, that is, 80 planes. Each of the 'Hongyan' 2 bombers wrote 30 50-kilogram aerial bombs. In the bombing of cities, fifty kilograms of aerial bomb power was enough. With the exception of those sturdy buildings made of reinforced concrete, there are few buildings that can withstand the power of such aerial bombs.

In addition to the 'Hongyan' 2 bomber, the 'Falcon' dive bomber also has two groups of 80 planes. These dive bombers, all carrying 200-kilogram bombs, will target Russian artillery positions and strong fortifications. After all, those artillery positions of the Russian army, hidden in the shadows, can inflict huge casualties on the Imperial Army. Relying on the Air Force's precision bombing, these nails can be quickly removed.

When the fighters of the Chinese Air Force appeared overwhelmingly on the edge of the sky, the German-Russian forces in Moscow immediately discovered it. They immediately gave a warning, and the artillery positions that were firing immediately stopped shelling, trying to hide and avoid the bombing of the Chinese Air Force. It's just that a dozen or dozens of cannons on an artillery position are not so easy to conceal in a short period of time. In addition, there are hundreds of artillery positions in Moscow, and it is even more impossible to hide them all.

So much so that when the planes of the Chinese Air Force flew over Moscow, they easily spotted the artillery of the German-Russian coalition army who were scrambling to pull the artillery away.

One after another, the 'Haidongqing' 2 fighters launched the first attack, they circled the countryside and flew over the artillery position, and after flying over the artillery position, the 25-kilogram bomb hanging under the wing fell and flew towards the artillery position of the German-Russian coalition army.

"Boom! Rumble! "The bomb exploded, blowing away the Russian soldiers who were fleeing in all directions.

Subsequently, the fighters began to strafe the German-Russian soldiers with aviation machine guns. The caliber of the aviation machine gun is 12.7 mm, which is enough to break a person in two if it hits a human body. Therefore, people who are hit by heavy machine gun bullets of this caliber are often killed directly, and few people can survive.

Each of these fighter pilots seemed to be transformed into bloodthirsty devils, and every shuttle bullet that strafed them was able to take out several German-Russian artillerymen.

The most powerful blow to the artillery positions of the German-Russian coalition was the Falcon dive bomber. These dive bombers dive from an altitude of two thousand meters and pull up again when they are less than five or six hundred meters above the ground. Two hundred kilograms of bombs hanging under the belly of the plane have already fallen. Relying on inertia, these bombs were able to accurately fall into the artillery positions of the German-Russian forces.

Two hundred kilograms of aerial bombs, full of power. Often one bomb explodes on an artillery position, and half of the artillery position is destroyed. If the shells on the artillery positions had been killed, the losses inflicted on the German-Russian artillery would have been even greater.

As for the 'Hongyan' 2 bombers, the flight altitude was reduced to about 1,000 meters, and after the magazine was opened, the shells fell like dumplings. I saw a large area of fire and smoke rising in the city of Moscow. Thirty 50-kilogram aerial bombs dropped by a 'Hongyan' 2 bomber can often directly blow up a large area.

Under the bombardment of the Chinese Air Force, the artillery of the German-Russian coalition army can be described as heavy losses. (To be continued......)
