Jagged Germany

Chapter 276: defeated

??The turret of the tank turned slowly, and quickly locked on to the firing Russian machine gun.

?? "Boom!"

??Orange flames shone at the muzzle of the tank gun, and a shell hit the heavy machine gun of the Russian army in the blink of an eye.

??During the violent explosion, the machine gun of the Russian army was directly destroyed. As for the brave Russian soldier, he was also blown to pieces.

??More and more German tanks broke through the Russian defense line, rushed to their positions, and began to use machine guns and tank guns wantonly to massacre the Russian troops on the position.

??The entire battle has completely shown a one-sided situation. Facing the German tank troops, the Russian army had no counterattack power at all.

??Although, most of the Russian soldiers were frightened at this time, and they began to flee in all directions. But I have to deny that there are still many brave people in the Russian army who are not afraid of death. They held cluster grenades and wanted to blow up German tanks.

?? It's just that these brave Russian soldiers couldn't succeed at all. What greeted them was the intensive machine gun fire of German tanks.

??Many Russian soldiers, holding cluster grenades, were beaten into sieves before they rushed to the German tanks.

??Especially after the infantry who fought with the tanks also broke into the Russian positions, those Russian troops had no chance to pose a threat to the German tanks. Although, the German army's infantry and tank coordination is only just beginning. But some avenues have been figured out. When the tank is attacking, it provides protection for the infantry behind. At the same time, the infantry is also providing protection for the tanks, preventing Russian soldiers from destroying their tanks in a suicidal way. This complementary attack method enabled the German army to easily defeat the Russian army with a small number of troops.

?? "General, the 8th Armored Division has successfully broken through the Russian defense line, and is currently expanding its results." A staff officer reported to Lieutenant General François.

?? "Invest two more infantry divisions, and let the 8th Armored Division continue to serve as the vanguard to attack the Russian army. Try to defeat the Russian army at one time, so that they can no longer organize a strong defense." Lieutenant General Francois ordered.

??If this battle can completely defeat the 2nd Russian Guards Army, then the German army will be sure to win this battle. The next step is to consider how to achieve the greatest results.

?? "Yes, General." The staff officer immediately went to give the order.

??The two infantry divisions, which had already been ready for battle, immediately entered the position, making it impossible for the Russian army to reorganize the position that had already been broken through.

??After the attack by the German 8th Armored Division, the forward position of the Russian army fell in less than an hour. On the battlefield, the corpses of Russian soldiers were everywhere. Many of them are even incomplete. Either it was shredded by German artillery fire, or it was shredded by German tanks.

??German tanks ran directly over the corpses of these Russian troops. After the heavy tank passed by, the tracks had already crushed the Russian soldiers to the point of being inhuman. Blood flowed everywhere, even making the mud muddy.

??After the German army broke through the forward position of the Russian army, it did not stay. The 8th Armored Division continued to attack the deep positions of the Russian army. Although, some tanks had mechanical failures during the battle and had to stop advancing. However, most of the tanks can continue to drive, and the combat effectiveness of the 8th Armored Division has not been weakened much by this.

?? You know, in order to improve the reliability of the tank, Qin Tian asked the German arms company to continuously improve the existing tanks, simplify the parts, and make the structure of the tank more simple and reliable. Qin Tian did not hope that the tanks they would equip in the future would become weapons similar to precision instruments.

??In another time and space, the performance of German tanks in World War II can be said to be the best in the world. But the biggest problem is undoubtedly that the German tanks are so sophisticated that maintenance is simply a nightmare. In addition, the construction of sophisticated tanks requires more man-hours. For the man-hours it takes Germany to manufacture a tank, Soviet Russia has already built several T-34s. This makes the performance of the German tiger and leopard tanks able to crush the Soviet Russian T-34. However, in the end, it was still overwhelmed by the sea of ??tanks composed of T-34s used by Soviet Russia.

??Qin Tian hopes that in this time and space, the German army can get rid of this fate. Therefore, from the very beginning, he made a request to the munitions company that after the tank was developed, subsequent improvements must find ways to simplify the result of the tank as much as possible, shorten the manufacturing time, and improve reliability.

??At Qin Tian's request, Deutsche Arms had no choice but to carry out research in this area. From the current point of view, the effect seems to be pretty good. Qin Tian also believed that with the scientific and technological strength of the German Empire, if he didn't make detours, he would definitely be able to be far ahead of other countries in terms of weapons and equipment. After all, with his existence similar to cheating, if Germany can't do this, it would be too bad.

??The continued German offensive is not a good thing for the Russian 2nd Guards Army. They had no way to resist the German attack at all, and could only let the German army easily break through their defense lines one after another.

??Russian Guards 2nd Army Headquarters, this place is already in chaos. Bad news came one after another from the front line, making the generals of the Russian army terrified.

"General, the German army has already broken through our frontline positions. Their tank troops are too powerful. We have no way to stop their attack. The frontline troops have lost a lot. Now, the Germans are attacking our second line positions. Launch an offensive. However, judging from the attack power of the Germans, it is only a matter of time before the second-line positions are broken by the Germans." A Russian general reported.

?? "Asshole! We are the most powerful army in the Russian Empire, but can't we even resist the German attack a little bit?" Admiral Krapovich was very angry.

"General, there is no way. We have no way to stop the German tanks, and we have no weapons to deal with their tanks. This makes our defense line in front of their tanks like paper. The same, it was easily broken through." A general said with a mournful face.

?? Admiral Krapovich sighed. Now he has realized what it means to be defeated like a mountain. The 2nd Russian Guards Army is now facing such a situation.
