In another time and space, the German armored forces in the two states that most suited their combat style, both played a shocking record that the whole world was amazed: one was in the early stage of World War II, when the air and ground integrated attack, their speed of advancing and cutting the enemy, which can be called a model for the world's armored forces, and the other is that in the late stage of World War II, in the state of exhausting defense, they played a terrible record that amazed the enemy and worshipped, creating a defensive miracle of frequently repelling the attacks of superior enemy forces.

Also in another time and space, German paratroopers created many firsts in human history, active in almost every corner of World War II, although for various reasons, they were not able to soar to the end of World War II, but they were still organized as elite infantry, participated in many unforgettable classic defensive counterattacks. And those resolute and brave German paratroopers also left a strong impression on their world counterparts who were tenacious and good at fighting.

In this time and space, the tanks in the hands of the German armored units are more reliable and have a better bomb-avoiding appearance, and the time of battle is also more favorable, and some of the enemy's excellent tanks have not even been put into service; after several arduous battles, the German paratroopers are more combatant and more tenacious than their own in another time and space, and their frequent appearances have made the whole world remember the German paratroopers as a brave branch of the army. In this state, it is no exaggeration to say that the German armored forces, in line with the defense arranged by the German paratroopers, were as solid as a rock and immovable as a mountain in the face of the enemy's attack.

So when the Soviets launched another ground offensive in an attempt to recapture the bridge they had lost, they failed without any suspense, once again leaving behind the wreckage of a dozen tanks, once again the corpses of hundreds of soldiers, and once again retreating to the positions from which they had started.

The bridge may never return to the Soviets, that's what all the Soviet soldiers who look at the bridge in the distance are thinking now. The Germans there did not seem to be tired at all, as if they were not afraid of death at all, and they stayed in their trenches and did not take a step back until they died.

While one army thinks that faith can defeat all powerful enemies, another army in this world not only has a strong faith, but also holds the most powerful weapon that their faith has given them. The two forces collided head-on, proving that faith alone is not enough to win in modern warfare.

"Comrade General Rokossovsky! We have done our best, the position is still in the hands of the Germans, and I have to tell you with regret that my troops have not been able to complete their mission. General Vanokov held the microphone in a trembling hand and finished the not long sentence in a trembling voice.

Then on the other side of the earpiece, Rokossovsky heard a piercing gunshot. One of his division commanders killed himself with a gun, which made his eyes blink at the sound of the gun. It's not that he's callous, it's because if he continues to fail like this, the next person to swallow a gun on the phone will be himself. So it's not his turn to mention other people's grief, everyone just has a first come, first come.

"If the enemy knows that they can't recapture the bridge, they will blow it up, and when the time comes, they will shell it with heavy artillery, and a target as big as a railway bridge can easily be hit and destroyed. "Wren leaned against the tank, hiding in the direction of the river embankment. The German tanks did not stop waiting for the Soviets to shell them, and they quickly found a relatively safe place, at least able to use the anti-slope to block the view of the enemy observation post.

The commander of the German special forces, who had been on the other side of the bridge and was preparing to blow up the bridge, smiled, then pointed to the top of his head and said: "The times are different, the combat targets that required countless people to fill with their lives ten years ago are enough for us today with 100 of us, and what could not be done more than ten years ago can be done now!"

As he spoke, an Odin helicopter carrying rockets and cannons swept over the battlefield, and the fierce wind blowing from the propellers made both of them squint. The first helicopter flew by, followed by the second, the third, and farther away, a dozen planes also flew over the German positions.

"These helicopters will be responsible for destroying the heavy artillery positions of the Soviet Red Army, and our men have already reconnoitred Soviet targets on the other side of the river overnight last night, marking those Soviet artillery positions that are worth destroying. The commander of the special forces proudly introduced.

"How to mark?" Wren asked curiously, thinking that using smoke bombs and other means would not be a good indication of the target.

"It takes some guts and wisdom. The commander of the special forces smiled and said: "Actually, it is easy to explain, because ......"

With that, he lifted his wrist, and on it was a beautiful-looking watch, painted with dark lacquer, and with a closing-close lid on the dial to prevent reflections from the watch. He looked at the time above and then made an explosive gesture: "The time is just right!"

As he spoke, as if he had made an appointment, some explosions suddenly occurred on the disguised artillery positions of the Soviet Union, and these explosions indicated a clear target to the German helicopters flying through the sky, so the German modified Odin helicopter gunships began to rain down ammunition on their targets.

One by one, the rockets swept out of the rocket launch slots under the short wings of the helicopter and scattered the Soviet artillery positions with dazzling fire, exploding one after another, and the huge waves of air tore the cannons that had been set up for fire to the ground. The Soviet artillery exposed to the fire suffered heavy casualties for a while, and the exposed shells also exploded, which made the positions of these Soviet artillery even worse.

"Bang bang bang!" Suddenly, a dazzling tracer bullet jumped up in the woods, and a hidden Soviet anti-aircraft gun position opened fire, and several machine gun shells hit a German helicopter, breaking the tail of the helicopter in two. The unbalanced Odin helicopter began to spin and descend, and the fire from the tail dragged out a circle of black smoke, outlining a line that fell towards the earth.

After all, helicopter gunships, which lack long-range precision weapons, are still a long way from becoming the terminator of ground forces. This tactic is not a full-fledged armed helicopter long-range suppression, but a hand-to-hand combat similar to a bayonet. Losses are inevitable, and this is the most important reason why Accardo did not massively use helicopters to fight on the front line.

Farther away, a German Odin helicopter spotted the situation, turned its nose and aimed its weapons at the Soviet anti-aircraft positions, and the two 20 mm cannons in the nose began to spray tongues of fire, and the shells hit the woods, splashing a stump of broken leaves.

The hidden Soviet anti-aircraft gun was instantly overwhelmed by the raindrops of shells, and the warhead of the machine gun splashed a spark on the steel, and the impact on the anti-aircraft gunner immediately broke the fragile body into several pieces. This anti-aircraft gun was completely turned into scrap metal and lost its ability to fight.

But in the other direction, the Soviet anti-aircraft guns were still firing fiercely, and another German helicopter was hit by a shell, which exploded in the sky and turned into a brilliant flame. The propeller split apart in all directions, and flew far away because of inertia, sticking like a javelin into the distant land.

"Is it worth it? In a moment, three planes have been shot down. Wren looked at the sky in the distance, where the third Odin helicopter was falling, and the Soviet artillery positions on the ground were already in flames.

"It's worth it, we exist to get the greatest benefit with the least sacrifice. The commander of the special forces looked at the Odin helicopters in the sky who were firing while dodging enemy fire, and said firmly: "The order is to keep this bridge, and it is worth it no matter how much you sacrifice." ”

"Boom!" Before he could finish his words, a cannonball struck a riverbank not far from the bridge, splashing up a cloud of silt and setting off a huge column of water. It was clear that the artillery of the Soviets was firing, which put a layer of frost on the face of the special forces commander.

No matter how sophisticated the instrument is, there is a possibility that it will fail, and no matter how strict the battle plan is, there may be mistakes for many reasons. After all, this is a war in which both sides are trying their best, and it is impossible to win easily just by planning and unilateral actions.

"Have you ever wondered what to do after the Soviets really blew up the bridge? I blew up the tank and swam back across the river?" Wren looked at the waves from the exploding shell and asked, "You don't have an emergency plan or anything?"

"Yes!" replied the special forces commander.

"What's the plan?" Wren asked.

"Pray!"

“......”

"Boom!" another shell landed on the side of the bridge, this time close enough, and the stone railing on the side of the bridge shook and fell into the river, making a splash. If the Soviets had fired a few more shells, the bridge might have really collapsed.

Fortunately, several German helicopter gunships finally discovered the opponent's position and suppressed the missed Soviet artillery position, and the rockets instantly flooded the two cannons that were still firing desperately just now, and blew these two huge guys into a pile of scrap metal.

"Isn't it? It really works? Do you still study theology?" Wren saw that the enemy's artillery fire really stopped, and looked at the commander of the special forces in disbelief.

Long Ling didn't have a good cold today, a little fever, and his brain was in a state of stupidity.
