Jagged Germany

Chapter 1437: Interspersed with encirclement (ask for a monthly ticket)

"Comrade Commander, the operations of the 3rd Tank Army and 4th Army failed. They were attacked by the German 88th Panzer Division, the 882nd Mechanized Rifle Division and the Luftwaffe. The tank units of the 4th Tank Army were completely lost , There is only one infantry division left. Thirty percent of the tanks in the Third Tank Army are left.” The chief of staff of the Western Front, Lieutenant General Malankin, reported.

?? Marshal Voroshilov's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. An armored division and a mechanized infantry division of the German army actually killed their two tank armies. Although the two tank armies were not completely wiped out, the tank units were almost lost. In the next battle, it is obvious that it will not play a big role.

?? "Are the German armored units really that powerful? In front of them, our tank units are completely powerless!" Marshal Voroshilov said.

"Comrade Commander, according to the report of the 3rd Tank Army, our tanks, except for the T-34 tank, which can pose a certain threat to the German 'Tiger' and 'Black Panther' tanks, the rest of the tanks are not at all. The opponent of the German 'Tiger Panther' tank. But the number of T-34 tanks is too small, it can be easily destroyed by the Germans!" Lieutenant General Marankin reported.

??In fact, the reason why Russia was able to defeat Russia in another time and space was entirely due to the tactics of the sea of ??tanks. The tank sea formed by tens of thousands of T-34 tanks, no matter how powerful the "Tiger" tanks and "Leopard" tanks of the head of state, they can't hold it! After all, although German tanks are powerful, it is a flaw that their output cannot increase. The Russian army abruptly used its quantitative advantage to crush Germany's quality advantage.

?? But for this air force, Germany has not lacked resources, and at the same time, it has not embarked on another wonderful path in time and space in the research of tanks. This made Germany's tank output very large. The 36 group armies formed alone have more than 18,000 tanks. If you count the spare replacement tanks, the number is even higher. In addition, Germany also sold many obsolete tanks at low prices to the armies of the protectorate and slave states. This makes the armored forces possessed by the German side more powerful. You must know that even the tanks eliminated by Germany are still very powerful, enough to fight against the T-34 tanks, and even have some advantages.

?? In addition, the infantry divisions of the German Army are generally equipped with assault guns and tank destroyers. Although the number is not large, an infantry division only has a dozen assault guns and tank destroyers, but this is also a very powerful armored force. This makes the overall armor strength of the German army completely above that of Russia. Even if Bu Russia is now starting to go crazy and produce T-34 tanks, it is too late.

?? "I will call the General Staff and ask them to find a way to reinforce our batch of T-34 tanks! It's just that it takes time." Marshal Voroshilov said.

?? Now, what the Russian army lacks most is time. The German army that has broken through their line of defense will certainly not stop like this. The six armored divisions and 12 mechanized infantry divisions of the German Army Group B will be inserted into the heart of the Russian Western Front like a sharp knife with a handle.

??Facing the powerful armored forces of the German army, the Russian army simply couldn't resist it. There is probably only one final result, that is, the entire defense line will be beaten to pieces under the German attack. The German infantry will follow behind the armored troops, break through the Russian defenses, and destroy those Russian troops surrounded by armored troops.

?? "How is the situation with the other front armies?" Marshal Voroshilov asked.

?? Now that the Western Front is under the attack of the German Army Group B, it can be said that it has been devastated. Marshal Voroshilov also had no time to care about other fronts. The reason for asking this question is entirely because I want to know whether the Western Front is the worst. If not, then he has already figured it out. Even if he would be reprimanded by Joseph, it would not be too serious.

"Comrade Commander, the situation of several other front armies is also very serious. The defense lines of the Northwest Front Army and the Southwest Front Army have been breached. The German Army Group A and Army Group C are rapidly breaking through. The defense line of the Josefgrad Front Army, It was also broken through, and the troops were shrinking towards Josephgrad. Obviously, they were preparing to defend Josephgrad. The Caucasus Front Army used the terrain to resist the German attack. But under the indiscriminate bombing of the German army, the Caucasus The front army also suffered heavy losses. It is very difficult to say how long it can resist. In short, the current situation is very unfavorable to us!" Lieutenant General Ma Lanjin said.

??Marshal Voroshilov nodded. After learning that the performance of the other front troops was also very bad, he finally put his heart back into his stomach. The so-called law does not blame the public, if Joseph wants to deal with the generals who performed unfavorably on the battlefield, wouldn't he have to deal with all the generals of the front army? In that case, the Russian army will fall into chaos, let alone resist the German attack.

??The armored division and mechanized infantry division of the German Army Group B did not stop after breaking through the Russian defense line. After replenishing ammunition and fuel, the attack continued.

??At this moment, the defense line of the Russian Army's Western Front has been torn open by them more than a dozen gaps. A large number of German infantry are pouring into the Russian defense line from these gaps.

??At the same time, the German armored divisions and mechanized infantry divisions also began to intersperse continuously. They used the powerful assault capabilities of the armored forces to continuously break through the Russian defense line and divide the Russian army into pieces.

??The armies under the Western Front of the Russian Army are constantly being divided and surrounded. The command of the troops has become chaotic, and the superior can no longer command the subordinate. Under such circumstances, the Russian army could not resist the German attack at all.

"Your Excellency the Marshal, the five armies of Army Group B are all engaged in combat. However, our strength is still too small. Although the armored forces and mechanized forces have completed interspersed and surrounded many Russian troops. However, To eliminate these Russian troops, a lot of troops are needed. And our troops may not be enough!" Lieutenant General Karl Hilpert said.

??Marshal Guderian thought for a while, and then said: "Let the army of the slave country go into battle! There are so many people, it is impossible to use them all to protect the supply line and maintain law and order!"

??The commanders of several other army groups chose the same as Marshal Guderian. In the case of insufficient troops, they also put the troops of the slave country into the battle.
