In the huge explosion, the whole division headquarters was lifted away. Under the angry wave, everyone was lifted aside.
"Sir, sir!" A sentry far away was not affected by the explosion. When he rushed over, the division commander lay on the ground covered with blood.
He shouted loudly, but it was useless. There was a shrapnel and blood bubbling out of the teacher's abdomen. In less than two minutes, the teacher would die of excessive bleeding.
"Sir!" He shouted loudly, but it was useless. The teacher's temperature was getting colder and colder. He looked up and saw that the bombers in the sky were still dropping bombs recklessly.
General Evans, commander of the British first armored division, was killed by German bombers. He became the highest ranking commander of the British French allied forces.
This is just the beginning.
With his death, the first armored division ushered in a terrible moment of destruction.
The headquarters was dug out, and the lower troops were in a panic.
Breakout is an art. In the war of Germany attacking the Soviet Union, it often surrounded more than 100000 people, or even hundreds of thousands of people at one time. During the breakthrough, some troops were completely destroyed, and even the commander of the group army died.
Some troops escaped intact, even carrying out the big pot for cooking.
But at least, breaking through the encirclement is definitely not a rush. There must be a command. Where is a fake breakthrough, where is a real breakthrough, there are primary and secondary, and the troops are reasonably distributed. At least the artillery still has some firepower, which can pour their firepower on the Germans and open a gap.
Unfortunately, there was nothing. They were completely confused.
All arms lost their own weapons and ammunition and wanted to rush out of the encirclement. When they rushed to the periphery of the encirclement, German machine guns and artillery opened fire fiercely, and lots of British soldiers fell in a pool of blood.
Like the British army in World War I, which rushed to the opposite heavy machine gun without fear, more than 100000 died a day.
Now the British are running to death.
In front of the German line, the British fell in rows.
Of course, not everyone chose to break through and die, and some chose heroism.
For example, the tank company directly under the division headquarters.
Company commander Hess survived the bombing. He looked at the corpses all over the ground and was very angry. At the same time, he also knew that there was only one way to save his own side. Use their tanks to help the troops break through!
"Come on, come with me!" Shouted Hess, sitting on his turret and shouting to the soldiers around him.
Take his tank as the guide, tear a hole and break through with the infantry behind!
He didn't choose the river behind him. There was no bridge there. In the past, he also died. At this time, breaking through to the north is a shortcut.
This is what the Germans did not expect. In the north, the deployed defense line is the weakest.
There was only one vehicle mounted infantry regiment, but the line of defense on the position there was very long, and they had no tanks to maneuver to fill the gap.
You know, the north is now the territory of Germany. It's foolish to break through to the north. It's normal to break through to the south.
Because of this, the defense of the north is very weak, which is Hess's idea. He doesn't know how many troops surround him in the north, but it must be less than other directions!
As long as he breaks through the encirclement, he can escape interspersed. You know, the Germans are now breaking in and want to take the lead in sealing the big hole in the encirclement. Therefore, there are many empty places behind the Germans, and there are channels everywhere.
Hess only summoned more than 200 soldiers, led by his more than 20 tanks, and rushed north.
The armored divisions are not all armored forces, but a certain proportion of infantry. In later generations, in the late World War II, the German armored divisions even had only dozens of tanks, almost all of them infantry.
With the large amount of equipment of wheeled infantry combat vehicles, although the Panther 3 tank has not been fully popularized, there is no shortage of supporting wheeled infantry combat vehicles. The infantry of the armored division are aircraft infantry riding wheeled combat vehicles.
The current sixth armored division governs the 6th infantry brigade, and the 4th vehicle mounted infantry regiment subordinate to the 6th infantry brigade is distributed in a scattered line over a width of several kilometers.
Marco, the regimental commander, quickly swept the billowing smoke and dust in the distance with his telescope. His eyebrows frowned and shouted, "attention, prepare our lg40 and let the British know our strength!"
At this time, his heart was really anxious.
Throughout the campaign, the German army was the offensive side. The enemy's tanks were directly handed over to their own tanks to kill. Therefore, they were not equipped with a large number of anti tank guns.
At the same time, infantry are mainly light, and they are equipped with recoilless guns.
Although they have wheeled infantry combat vehicles, they only help them improve their mobility. Their armor is weak. In front of each other's tanks, they are slag. They simply can't expect to rely on infantry combat vehicles to deal with each other.
So we can only rely on a 75mm recoilless gun.
Now, it's going to be dark. Once it's dark, their infantry can't stop the enemy's breakthrough. They can easily break through their own defense line.
Never let the British break through from their positions! Beat each other down before dark!
As a division's armored company, Hess's men operated Matilda type 2 tanks.
It sounds like an upgraded version of the Matilda 1 tank, but in fact the two are completely different.
The total combat weight of this tank is 26.9 tons, which is "one size larger" than type 1.
On the turret, it is equipped with a 2-pound gun, which is much more ferocious than the type 1 with only machine guns. At the same time, the armor thickness of each part is also enhanced. The armor thickness of the main part is 75 to 78 mm, and the secondary part is 25 to 55 mm.
At the same time, the most characteristic is that this tank adopts two engines.
The original idea was that you could drive at a low speed and maintain a certain combat effectiveness by relying on another engine.
Unfortunately, this is what the designer imagined in the office. The two engines increase the volume of the power unit and occupy the valuable space in the car. There is a problem of synchronous coordination when the two engines work. It is a complete chicken rib design.
Now, listening to the roar of the two engines at the tail, Hess looked at the German position in the distance with a telescope.
I bet right. The defense here is the weakest!
If you wait until dark to break through, it is 100% possible. Now, he can't delay time. The German armored forces are moving too fast. Maybe now there are tanks gathering here. He must be fast!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
