What exactly is Blitzkrieg?

The only ones who can explain this problem clearly are probably the defense army and Li Lin. Even Roland, who knows a lot about Alfheim's various internal affairs, is probably quite difficult for him to systematically explain this issue.

Blitzkrieg is a deep breakthrough operation of a large corps, a mechanized operation, a mobile war, and a war of annihilation. This is a comprehensive strategy and tactics with "rapid mobility" as the core principle. From a certain point of view, all wars of annihilation with the rapid maneuver of large corps as the main axis can be called "blitzkrieg". For example, the Soviet Union's concept of large-scale in-depth operations, the "Prague Spring" incident, the surprise attack on Czechoslovakia by the Chinese Pact bloc, and the "Desert Storm" operation of the US army in the early 90s of the 20th century can all be regarded as different versions of the blitzkrieg.

Like the above cases, the Blitzkrieg of the Defense Forces is a customized version developed according to its own conditions and objective circumstances. Due to the chronic disease in terms of human resources, it is impossible for the Alfheim Defense Army to tear apart the opponent's defense line and expand the breakthrough at every turn like Maozi, using multiple waves of steel torrents at the group army level to tear apart the opponent's defense line and then expand the breakthrough, smashing two divisions if one division is not enough, and five divisions if there is not enough two divisions - this kind of fighting style of drowning the opponent with their own blood at all costs is unbearable for the elven camp, so they did not hesitate to move closer to the US army, which also likes to exchange technology for human life. Relying on the C4ISR system as the basis, the realization of the combined and coordinated operation of all arms of the air and ground integrated rapid assault, this is the essence of the defense force blitzkrieg.

In other words –

"Your tactics are useless!Charlemagne's cavalry!!"

Bidianfeldt stood on the conning tower and shouted loudly, and the rolling iron stream was rushing towards Lybramon.

At this time, the 3rd Company put on a standard assault formation, each of the three tank platoons discharged an inverted V-shaped shock formation, the two platoons in front kept a distance of 50 meters and drove in parallel, and the rear of the two platoons was the third tank platoon, maintaining a distance of 100 meters from the front. The company headquarters followed closely behind the third platoon, and finally the infantry fighting vehicles loaded with panzergrenadiers acted as the rearguard and the force to launch a coordinated assault and extend the results of the battle.

This is a standard "motorized marching attack formation", which is impeccable from formation to morale. However, those who are familiar with the infantry and tank coordination tactics of the defense forces will see that this formation is actually set on the premise that "there are no anti-tank obstacles near the enemy's resistance front, and the tank will guide the armored grenadier attack". When taking a strategic target such as Libramon, which is full of anti-chariot traps, shouldn't we use the infantry as the leading unit to clear the way for the advance of the chariots? Could it be that Bidian Fürth forgot even the basic tactical common sense in order to take credit?

Bidianfeldt's mental state may be a little excited, but he is by no means abnormal, and it is impossible to forget the knowledge that has been deeply memorized in his soul.

The reason why he took this assault formation was simply because it was enough.

In front of the Tiger Chariot, Libramon was still a sea of fire, and the sky was still raining down on the Angels of Death, tons of steel and flames were poured into every building, and the raging fire and black smoke almost obscured the entire sky.

Colonel Lazareth had the right tactics and layout, and with the resources at his disposal and the circumstances on the ground, he had done a good job.

However, whether it is his tactical assumption or the preset environment, he ignores one point.

He is not fighting against an army, not an army group, but a whole system.

The progress of technology is not just a superficial increase in firepower, cannons, chariots, and airplanes are indeed majestic, and no one is fearful in front of the steel giants. But at the end of the day, these are still machines that need an operator to perform well, and without a good operator, there is no system that can guarantee its expected performance, just a pile of scrap metal that does not move and rusts.

There are quite a lot of cases of asymmetric confrontation in which a weak opponent is used against a strong enemy and has been successful, but it should be noted here that even if there is a successful case of asymmetric confrontation, first of all, the confrontation between two systems, secondly, it has a clear target, and finally it cannot be led by the nose by the opponent - The above three points, not to mention that Charlemagne has not yet studied the ugliness, and Roland himself has not come up with a set of specific theories, at best, there are only some tactical guiding principles, and this kind of crude guidance and system is used to counter the integrated air-ground operations that the Wehrmacht has achieved informationization?

The fighters of the 5th Hussar Division were fully aware of their defeat before the operation, they could be beaten into honeycombs, shrapnel into rags, chariot tracks crushed into meat sauce, and their own anti-chariot weapons to the point of being blown to the bones, but they believed that the sacrifices were worth it, that the enemy's footsteps would be stumped, and that the Motherland would be saved because of their sacrifices.

For the soldiers of Baoding's mortal heart, is there a better place to bury them?

But if you can't even see the face of the enemy, you can't even see the shadow of the chariot, and you can turn into ashes under the ferocious blow that even steel will melt......

The storm of tracer bullets and rockets washed over and over again every building where people were hiding, and at 55mm, In the face of 75mm shells, wooden and masonry structures were no stronger than papier-mâché tattered, as were the human bodies hiding behind these fragile barriers, and the suffocating screams rang out one after another, pressing down from the top of their heads, and just as one wondered when the seemingly endless screaming would stop, the 500-kilogram aerial bomb freed them from their worries and fears, and the entire building was reduced to ashes with a roar.

The fighters of the 5th Hussar Division, after making all the preparations for battle, finally waited for their opponents, but instead of the unsuspecting armored units that they had imagined, they were attacked by a whole brigade.

The lack of air raids along the way made the fighters forget that it was because they were occupying important roads and the MDS units were busy with other business that they were able to rush to Lybramon without danger, and instead try to take the side roads or through the woods, the air warships and attack aircraft were happy to practice aiming and shooting with thermal imaging devices.

Now that they have left the road and entered the tomb that they have arranged, what are the guards being polite to you? As soon as they received the report from the front, the command of the army group immediately telegraphed a group of attack planes on standby near Lybramont to provide close support, and the order specifically pointed out that all buildings except railway stations, roads, and railways were targetable.

This is actually an indiscriminate attack order in disguise. You must know that each of those heavy attack aircraft is equivalent to a tank platoon (1 75mm, 4 55mm guns, which is equivalent to moving a tank platoon equipped with a fully automatic loading system to the sky and firing a salvo). The 8 hardpoints under the belly and wings can also be equipped with aerial bombs, 32 57mm rocket launchers, and 6 90mm rocket launchers (there are clouds at the top of the defense force: the pilot's labor protection gloves, the fighter plane's rocket launch, and the Marine Corps' sea soul shirt are the three treasures of the army! The glorious tradition cannot be lost!).

This frenzied monster was enough for just one plane, and now there was a brigade of 34 of them, plus the tanks and armored grenadiers on the ground—

The 5th Hussar Division had no chance at all, they didn't even have a chance to figure out why they had failed.
