The Rise of the Empire

48 bombers were divided into 16 groups and bombed the Russian rear artillery positions and logistics supply points. This unprecedented attack method instantly confused the Russians. They didn't know how to respond and could only watch one after another. The bombers dumped tons of bombs on the ground, then turned the artillery pieces and mountains of supplies into a sea of ​​flames.

If viewed from the air, more than a dozen black areas have appeared in Russia's rear. These are positions that have been bombed and burned. On the khaki and green wilderness, these spots that portend death are so eye-catching. And when the first wave of bombing ended, before the bombers could return, the second wave of bombers had arrived, once again bringing death and fear to the shocked Russians.

For the first time, Rogers felt a sense of powerlessness. Even when faced with the Japanese's frontal charge and flanking detours during the Russo-Japanese War, he was not as desperate as he was today. The pillars of fire and gunpowder smoke rising far and near made him subconscious. He thought he should do something, but under the opponent's rapid air strikes, he could do very little. After these aircraft took out the artillery positions, they would not mind using machine guns to massacre the crowds gathered together.

Whenever the officers below tried to regroup, a bomber dropped from the sky and dispersed them with intense machine gun fire! After leaving dozens of horrific corpses scattered on the ground, the Russians who had escaped from the tiger's mouth would never try to gather again. Even if the officers whipped them severely with whips and threatened them with pistols, these guys who had changed from soldiers to cowards They would just huddle in a corner and tremble with their heads in their hands. Before the Germans could attack from the front, the Russian army's support system collapsed!

While the bombers were still flying in the sky, the long-range artillery of the Bavarian Army also began to show its power. They did not waste precious artillery shells on the Russian frontal defense line. These hastily laid out lines were left to the front-line troops. The dense The artillery shells began to clear out the remaining long-range Russian artillery positions one by one, and at the same time began to block the roads, thereby isolating the breakthrough area from the entire position.

Accompanied by the roar of the 210MM heavy artillery, the Bavarian Army's first deep breakthrough finally kicked off. Artillery of various calibers blasted the Russian positions from far or near distances! Facing the powerful 100KG heavy grenade, the so-called bunker is just a ridiculous trick. The storm of flames and shrapnel generated by the explosion of the heavy shell can easily blow up sections of trenches into deep pits. Both people and temporary civil structure bunkers will inevitably turn into ashes.

Amidst the roar of artillery fire and the rumbling roar of engines, torrents of steel coated with German gray began to rush towards the Russian position! The first line was easily shattered, but in the second line, the 3-inch rapid-fire artillery deployed by the Russians in front was still an offensive force and had a certain impact. Lieutenant Colonel Hart encountered a defense line with three rapid-fire artillery batteries. The slender artillery kept spraying flames, and 3-inch shells exploded in the offensive formation.

"If the opponent's gun positions are more concentrated and both wings are protected at the same time, it can still have some impact on us." But trouble is just trouble after all. Huck, who is very proficient in defense, will naturally guide how to break through such a line.

Three Wasp-type assault guns with additional armor appeared in front of the Russians. At a distance of 700 meters, the Russians frantically tilted the hail of bullets at them. The thick steel plates bounced off the shells from time to time, as if The Wasp tank in crisis began to retreat and emit streams of smoke. When the Russian shelling became sparse, its head would occasionally emerge from the smoke or the bunker.

Two shots.

The accuracy of attacking moving targets 700 meters away is inherently low, not to mention that the artillery is not powerful enough and difficult to penetrate. The opponent played very flexibly after using smoke screens and rock masses, constantly attracting the attention of the Russians. On the other side, after several 150MM self-propelled howitzers fired several rounds, and the three rapid-fire cannons at a supporting point turned into burning ruins, a group of Cricket tanks finally passed through, and they successfully circled to the front position. From the side, the massacre of the Russian artillery positions began from the side and the rear!

A series of 2-pound shells rang out from behind, which completely disrupted the Russian line. They didn't know how many people had gone around to the back, and they didn't know if there were still teammates around them who were persisting in the face of the Japanese penetration. The Russians were not doing very well, but this time they were faced with a brand-new armored penetration. As a result, the entire defense system collapsed instantly. The linearly arranged battle defense artillery without minefields wanted to defend against the attacks of superior armored forces. impossible.

In just over 20 minutes, Huck shattered the Russians' second line of attack. The tanks' tracks ran over the trenches and Russian corpses, leaving bloody traces. Huck didn't even put down The motorized infantry asked them to capture prisoners, because in his opinion, that was the business of the people behind, and he did not have time to capture these guys.

The combat effectiveness of the Donetsk Division has actually been exhausted by now. After the setbacks at the beginning of the war, the current focused bombing, and the initial blows from the two assault groups, although there are still a lot of troops left, these people are already frightened. . They can no longer fight. If they are lucky, they can return to the rear or the Russians can regain control of the battlefield, they can gather these remaining soldiers, but now, they can only lock themselves in a corner and tremble. Waiting to die or be captured.

However, the other two divisions of the Russians also entered the battle at this time. They were always outnumbered, and 8 infantry battalions were actually concentrated on one of the fronts. Under the guidance of a small number of cavalry, Russian soldiers in gray uniforms swarmed towards them like a tide. Formed two assault groups, trying to rely on the sea of ​​​​people to drown the opponent.

In addition to the 3-inch run, the so-called anti-armor weapons in the hands of these Russian soldiers are nothing more than a bundle of grenades. God knows what the effect will be if these things are thrown away, and whether these grenade-throwing soldiers will still be alive to see the sun tomorrow after being thrown out.

An assault group only consists of 50 tanks and a dozen armored vehicles and half-tracks. Seeing the crowd of people rushing over, both Armored Mike and Fire Captain Hart felt a little faint. Unknowingly, they had already penetrated deep into the area. They covered the opponent's position for 20 kilometers, and at three o'clock that afternoon, they finally collided with a large number of Russian infantry.

The so-called ignorant are fearless. Historically, French soldiers could face the German machine guns and artillery and fight in dense formations to die. But in this dimension, facing German armored forces that they have never seen before, Russian soldiers can still use Mosinna. To the Germans, launching the Gan rifle with a grenade was simply a desperate charge.
