In history, Rommel waited a day until the arrival of all the troops before crossing the river. But now, with the upgrading of their equipment, they don't need to wait at all. Only they, an armored division, can hit the other bank of the river and cross the river easily!
Rommel looked behind him. Behind the Panther tank was the infantry combat vehicle of the 7th motorized infantry battalion.
During the Spanish Civil War, the SD KFZ 232 heavy armored vehicle was tested for its strong combat effectiveness and battlefield adaptability. At the same time, the improvement of this heavy armored vehicle continues.
Now the latest model is called SD KFZ 234 heavy armored vehicle, and in the army, it is more directly and habitually called infantry combat vehicle.
It is still eight wheel drive and four-axle, but the whole body is wider. After redesigning the internal space, this heavy armored vehicle opens the door from the rear, just like the infantry combat vehicles of later generations.
At the same time, the turret at the top is equipped with 40mm bofoss anti-aircraft gun and improved automatic tank gun. It has fierce firepower. You don't have to be afraid of ordinary tanks.
From the appearance, this heavy armored vehicle has a larger body than before, and the front end is shuttle shaped. This section is completely for water navigation.
This infantry fighting vehicle has the ability of water navigation!
At its tail, there are two propellers to push the armored vehicle forward on the water. The whole armored vehicle is still ten tons, but the increased volume gives it enough buoyancy!
This new type of armored vehicle has begun to be equipped to the troops in batches. Needless to say, some middle-level commanders can guess that its water navigation ability is, of course, for crossing the English Channel at some time in the future.
In Europe, where water nets are everywhere, this kind of armored vehicle is also useful.
Although Rommel's 7th armored division is designed to fight in North Africa in the future, this kind of car body is wide, which is convenient to install huge exhaust fans.
Yes, in North Africa, heat is the first natural enemy, and many soldiers can't afford it. At this time, this kind of armored vehicle with wide body shows its superiority.
In this era, the air conditioner is unthinkable. The car body is wide, which can at least make the internal air convection more unobstructed and reduce the physical consumption of the members inside. At the same time, the ability to sail on water has also been preserved.
Due to the limited production of weapons in Germany, the 7th motorized battalion is equipped with such infantry combat vehicles. However, the 6th motorized infantry regiment behind has not been equipped with armored vehicles yet. They came in six wheeled vehicles.
They don't have armored vehicles to cross the river, but they have rubber boats!
This one hour is for them to prepare.
Opposite them was the French 9th army, which also hurried into Belgium and moved to the Maas river. Almost not long after it arrived, it saw the German troops opposite.
Lieutenant general Cora, commander of the group army, listened to the reports of the front-line scouts and felt that the situation was not good.
In terms of numbers, the number of his group army far exceeds that of the other side, but in terms of combat effectiveness, he is definitely not dominant.
"Ask the command for help immediately. We need more troops." Lieutenant general Kola said that when he was at the headquarters here, he could see through a telescope those tall and powerful tanks opposite, which made lieutenant general Kola very uneasy.
Fortunately, there is no bridge here. Obviously, the other party has to wait for the bridge troops to come and forcibly cross the river, which makes it easier for his side. At least, there is no need to worry about facing those terrible tanks directly.
So far, it seems that the French army can't come up with a good way to deal with those terrible tanks.
Now, he needs more troops to reassure him.
"Report, the Germans opposite have lined up their tanks on the river bank!" Just then, a more surprised news came.
The tanks of the other side are lined up on the river bank. If there are heavy guns on your side, you can blast the other side! Unfortunately, I also hurried there. Those heavy guns are still behind!
Raise the telescope and look at everything on the river bank over there. Lieutenant general Cora's uneasiness is becoming stronger and stronger. Is the other party going to attack?
The other party's action is really fast! Lieutenant general Kola held a high-power telescope and saw some rubber boats behind the other party, which were inflating. He was even more surprised: "fortify along the river bank immediately and enter the position. The Germans are going to cross the river!"
At this time, the German tactics were already obvious. It was hateful to use tanks to provide fire support and those rubber boats to cross the river. They didn't rest. They began to cross the river as soon as they arrived!
Although we don't have heavy weapons, we have all kinds of machine guns. As long as we spread them along the river bank and the other party's rubber boat shoots at the river when crossing the river, it must be an easy task.
There's no way to cross the MAS river!
The French soldiers here hurried into the position on the river bank. There were many machine gunners. They were waiting quietly.
When the sun began to set in the west, at 4 p.m., the battle of forcibly crossing the MAS river finally began.
"Three minutes of artillery coverage, call me!" Standing on the Bank of the river, looking across the river, Rommel shouted.
FireStarter!
"Boom!" An 88 mm tank gun fired fiercely, and the high explosive grenade flew to the opposite position.
After the development of 88mm tank gun is mature, all newly built tanks begin to be equipped with 88mm tank gun for the simple reason of cost and man hours.
The power is similar to that of a 75mm long barrel gun, but one 75mm gun is enough to build two 88mm guns. After the approval of Chirac, the newly built tanks have been fully converted to 88mm guns.
The powerful high-pressure tank gun is generally not used as a howitzer. After all, the life of the gun barrel itself is limited, but no one takes it seriously in battle.
Winning the battle is more important than anything!
The increase of caliber means the increase of power for high explosive grenade!
"Boom!" The 88 mm grenade accurately hit a machine gun position opposite.
The German light machine gun is very similar to that made in the Czech Republic. The magazine is on it. This 7.5mm shatierilla light machine gun is very reliable and is French equipment.
They did not expect that at the beginning of the battle, as machine gunners, they were already the most dangerous. How exactly did the German opposite find their own machine gun position?
For tankers, relying on high-precision sight, if time is enough, they can look at every inch of land opposite. Only the muzzle of a machine gun can expose the target. In this hour, they are searching for the target. Now, they are firing!
"Wait, I'll go up with you!" Amid the loud gunfire, Rommel shouted to a wheeled armored vehicle.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
