There was a tank army in the Soviet Union, but because of mistakes in decision-making, the tanks were broken up and organized. It was not until 39 years that the tank division began to be established.

It is envisaged that the tank division will have two tank regiments, one motorized infantry regiment, one artillery regiment and some service support units. The Division has 11343 personnel, about 60 guns and mortars and 375 tanks, including 63 kV heavy tanks, 210 T-34 medium tanks, 102 T-26 and BT tanks.

Similarly, due to the backward military production of the Soviet Union and the expansion of the troops, many troops are dissatisfied. For example, the current 35th tank division has no heavy tanks at all.

Of course, it can also be seen that the tank division is definitely not all tank troops. They also have infantry. The German armored division also has the same infantry establishment.

In the process of marching, the infantry of the tank division can carry forward on the tank and arrive at the battlefield at the same time. When the tanks gather and charge, the infantry will also follow and launch an attack. Although they are not in the front line, it is also good to clean up the battlefield and solve the remaining enemies of the other party.

Now, they are such an action plan. They don't know that danger is coming.

The German tank troops crossed with the Soviet tank troops and rushed fiercely towards the infantry behind!

Tanks with machine guns can bring damage to infantry, but it's not cost-effective for tanks to fight infantry after all. Infantry chariots rush into the infantry of the Soviet Union. It's like wolves into sheep!

There are only one or two machine guns in the tank, and the infantry chariot, everyone is holding continuous weapons. At the same time, the 40mm bofoss chariot gun is definitely a nightmare for the other party's infantry!

For the Mechanized Infantry Regiment under the jurisdiction of the 35th tank division, today is definitely a day they will never forget.

They are advancing behind the tanks. They can't see the opposite situation. They can only see their own tank forces advancing and advancing, so they follow and advance.

As a result, after their tanks passed, German tanks were killed in the gap of their tank forces, which made them stunned. Now they are not laying defense on the position, but in the attack. There are no bunkers around them to block German tanks!

When they found that German tanks rushed over, they immediately stopped moving forward. Before the order to retreat was issued, they saw that some wheeled vehicles suddenly appeared in the other party's attack queue and began to attack them at a higher speed!

"Bang, bang!" During the March, the 40mm bofoss chariot guns sounded wildly. With the sound of the guns, 40mm shells flew towards the Soviet infantry.

"Boom!" A 40mm high explosive grenade hit a tall Russian soldier. In the explosion, the upper half of his body was suddenly blown away, and the lower half was splashed with blood. He continued to take a step forward before falling heavily.

The recruits around suddenly became weak. This is the battlefield, the cruel and terrible battlefield, which makes everyone feel like a battlefield to vomit!

Some veterans, having experienced such a scene, knew that they could no longer stand it, and immediately ran back.

The wheeled infantry fighting vehicle can speed up to 100 kilometers per hour on the highway and 40 kilometers per hour in this flat field.

For it, this is a unilateral massacre, and it is in high spirits.

The infantry carried inside also opened the rifle insurance one after another and prepared to shoot out from the shooting hole. When they entered the ranks of Soviet deserters, they would be like hedgehogs and can fire on all sides!

At this time, the Soviet light tanks that had rushed in front were in a dilemma. They were divided into two waves. One wave turned around and chased in the direction of the German tanks, and the other wave began to attack the German encirclement line. They wanted to open the hole and save the infantry inside.

In 1930, the Soviet Union purchased two Christie tanks from the United States for reverse mapping and imitation. After trial production in Kharkov factory, it was called BT-1 fast tank.

After many improvements, the current BT-7 fast tank was developed in 35 years.

The tank body is changed to welded armor, the armor inclination is increased, and the performance is obviously enhanced by using a newly designed turret and a new engine.

This enhancement mainly refers to mobility. The speed of this latest tank has reached 80 kilometers per hour!

From 35 years to now, this kind of tank has been in mass production and widely equipped to various troops.

Unfortunately, Soviet tank designers did not know the needs of front-line tank soldiers. For tank design indicators, firepower should be the first element! Not fast enough and not thick enough armor are secondary. How can tank soldiers play if they can't penetrate each other from zero distance?

BT-7 tank uses a 45mm gun with 188 rounds of ammunition. It can be used as a mechanism gun.

Now, this kind of thin skinned and big stuffing fast tank collides rapidly with the German position. At this time, they play the same role as the German infantry fighting vehicles. They use armor to attack the enemy's infantry and open the gap.

Unfortunately, they met German infantry, but also Viking infantry!

"Recoilless guns are ready to let the Soviets know our strength!" Sitting next to a Tiger tank and looking through a telescope at the 30 or so fast tanks coming up in front, Felix said loudly.

In fact, they have reserved some tanks. If they go up now, they can easily destroy these light tanks of the Soviets, but Felix has not done so. Those reserves are used to prevent the enemy from breaking through the encirclement and blocking the opening at any time. Especially now, there are the impact of Soviet tank forces outside and the Soviets in the encirclement, Must be trying to break through.

There is no need for tanks at all. This light tank can be dealt with by recoilless guns!

Just after their tanks were sent out, recoilless guns were deployed at the front of the position.

The lg40 recoilless gun is relatively light and is mainly used by airborne soldiers. For the armored grenadiers of the armored division, the 105 mm recoilless gun is the king.

These recoilless guns are almost all deployed on portable four-wheel mobile launch vehicles, that is, the famous 82 barrel vehicle. The pipe protruding from the top and middle of the convertible is this kind of weapon.

At this time, these tankers were hidden in the front of the position. After receiving the order, they prepared in an orderly manner.
