??Chapter 369 Judgment
If Kubiler had known early on that his opponent was the 1st Guards Tank Brigade, he would not have dared to be arrogant and think that everything was under his control, and even deliberately let it go, planning to use the 1st Guards Tank Brigade to force Hoppner or even hitler.
?? But who knows this? The 1st Guards Tank Brigade is the famous "T34 Troop", but this troop uses clumsy British and American tanks!
?? But the battlefield is like this, there is no medicine for regret.
??Kubile could only admit that he was unlucky, and immediately ordered the 29th Infantry Regiment to prepare for combat, and also urgently transferred the Sixth Armored Division to Tver.
??Of course, Kubiler will not forget to warn Lucas, the commander of the Sixth Armored Division.
?? "Remember the Russian 1st Guards Tank Brigade?" Kubiler asked.
?? "Of course!" Lucas replied.
?? "They are in Tver!" Kubil said, "They are your opponents!"
?? "What? Shouldn't their tank be 'T34'?"
?? "I don't know why, but they are indeed the 1st Guards Tank Brigade!" Kubil replied: "Although there is no 'T34', they are equipped with new equipment, which may be the reason!"
??Lukas didn't answer. He didn't know if it was because he agreed with Kubiler's words or because he felt the pressure of facing the 1st Guards Tank Brigade.
?? "Is there any problem?" Kubiler asked.
After thinking for a while, Lucas replied: "I am not afraid of the 1st Guards Tank Brigade, general, especially the 1st Guards Tank Brigade that uses British and American tanks. I have confidence in my subordinates, Our tanks are also confident. But, we don't know anything about the enemy's new equipment, how can we deal with them?"
?? "That's right, Major General!" Kubile agreed with Lucas' analysis: "So, I had someone collect some information about these new equipment."
"information?"
?? "Yes, from the 7th Armored Division!"
??Lucas immediately understood that there were some survivors in the Seventh Armored Division, and they could indeed provide some useful actual combat information.
?? "I'll send you this information right away!" Kubiler said, "You can discuss with your subordinates on the way to deal with it, or some possible tactics!"
?? "Okay, General!"
??Lukas did exactly that. Immediately after receiving the information, he actively discussed countermeasures with his subordinates.
?? They even got a lot of right calls about the bazooka.
"We think it's a short-range device!" said a tank colonel. "Because they used close combat when fighting the 7th Armored Division, and they didn't open fire until our tanks came within a hundred meters... This shows that this The range of this new weapon is likely to be only one hundred meters!"
"We know it's a rocket!" Another officer said, "because many people have seen its wake and unique howling sound. But it is impossible for an ordinary rocket to penetrate our tank head-on. armored. And a considerable part of the hit tanks were ignited or detonated, which is very similar to the situation when our anti-tank grenade hits the target! That is to say, this kind of rocket is likely to detonate our anti-tank Tank grenades on rocket boosters!"
?? (Note: The German PWM anti-tank grenade uses the principle of conical charge.)
?? "So, they can throw anti-tank grenades a hundred meters away?" Lucas expressed shock.
?? This is already very fatal, because the German army only has a distance of 20 meters by manpower.
??Although it seems that there is not much difference, the difference between 100 meters and 20 meters is only a short 80 meters.
??But they all know that from the battlefield, sometimes a little range problem may affect the whole battle or even the war in actual combat.
??For example, the change from front-loading to rear-loading rifles has caused almost massacres for troops using front-loading guns.
?? Another example is the process from a smoothbore gun to a rifled gun, which is another one-sided **** ending.
?? Now it's the enemy that has the range advantage, at least as far as anti-tank gear is concerned.
??The officers were silent for a while, and then said: "So, we think we should try our best to avoid close combat with the Russian tank troops. As long as we keep a distance of 100 meters, our tanks are safe!"
??If Shulka heard these analyses, he would probably lament the quality of the German army.
?? The bazooka is nothing new to modern people, and it is normal to know these functions.
??However, for the German army who had never been in contact with a rocket launcher or even heard of it, it was not easy to guess based on its performance on the battlefield.
??Even the tactics chosen by the German army were correct...not to engage in close combat with enemy tank units, keep at least a hundred meters away, etc.
But they overlooked one point. The rocket launcher can be said to be an artifact of street warfare, especially in the direction of anti-tank. Even modern tanks that are much more advanced often cannot escape the "claw" of rockets in street warfare, let alone this The era of tanks.
However, this does not seem to be "neglected", because the information they obtained is that the bazooka relies on the cover of the tank to launch an attack. Will choose the way that tanks cover bazooka operations.
??The 6th Armored Division drove to Tver confidently. On the way, they also took some time to convey the news and inferences about the enemy's new equipment to the tank soldiers.
?? After more than an hour, they finally arrived at Tver, joined the 29th Infantry Regiment, and then couldn't wait to attack Tver.
??The reason for "can't wait" is because the German officer has another judgment: If you always want to keep a distance of more than 100 meters from the enemy, and at the same time you are still fighting on the street, then it is best to choose to fight the enemy during the day.
?? Needless to say, the reason is that it is difficult for a tank to maintain a distance of 100 meters from the enemy at night. It is good to be able to see the enemy clearly from 50 meters away.
??On the other hand, tanks have poor external perception, while infantry is not.
?? Therefore, German officers have reason to believe that if they choose to fight at night, German tanks will be good targets for the enemy's "new equipment".
?? This judgment is also reasonable and correct.
??On the other hand, it’s because the daytime is very short… After a bit of back and forth, half of the seven hours of daytime have passed.
?? That is to say, if the German army wants to defeat the 1st Guards Tank Brigade during the day, it must launch an attack as soon as possible.
??The Soviet army dispersed near the Tver Bridge.
??They have learned from the Air Force reconnaissance plane that the German army has an armored division rushing here, so they dispersed the troops, especially the rocket launchers, into the building.
