Human beings are always challenging their limits. As early as August 25, 1875, British man Matthew Wilbur successfully swam across the English Channel by swimming alone in 21 hours and 45 minutes without the help of any artificial objects. Not all soldiers in history can swim.

At this time, as proud British soldiers, as soldiers who ruled the whole earth and became the Empire of the sun, they carried forward the most respected style.

Those who can't swim, those who can swim, leave the hope of life to others and the risk of death to themselves. Who can't swim?

They silently picked up the weapons and ammunition of the swimming soldiers, lay on the ground and tied the grenades into a bundle, waiting for the arrival of that moment.

English, are you crazy?

Here, I saw the performance of the British, which was really beyond Dietrich's expectation.

The British, how dare they escape across the sea?

And they're still going to swim back?

Due to the limitation of location, he could not see the other side of the Strait in the distance. There were ships setting out to pick up the troops here. Dietrich really thought the other party was going to swim back.

Let the other party go back? Of course not!

"Order our tank troops to stop moving temporarily, call the division artillery behind us, use multiple rocket launchers and bomb the coast here!" Said Dietrich.

Want to swim back? It's not that easy. Let's blow you up first!

By radio, the troops in the rear immediately launched an array.

In the German establishment, an armored division has an artillery regiment, while the SS Armored Division has a larger establishment than ordinary, that is, they have two artillery regiments!

One of them is a howitzer regiment, and the other is a rocket regiment.

Each artillery regiment is composed of regiment headquarters, communication platoon and two artillery battalions. Each battalion has three companies, each company has four guns, and the company has no guns. Therefore, an artillery regiment has 24 guns.

Due to the lack of equipment, many artillery regiments still pull artillery, even if they are self-propelled, they are also wheeled chassis.

In fact, Germany's weapons production is already quite high, but Germany's military expansion is also quite fast, and the newly manufactured equipment can never meet the demand.

However, the armed SS has the power of priority. When other armored divisions, even artillery with wheeled chassis, have felt satisfied, the artillery regiment of the armed SS is equipped with crawler chassis!

Yes, it's the track chassis! At the beginning, in order to reduce the technical difficulty, Germany adopted the 20 ton Panther 2 tank scheme. Later, with the maturity of technology, Panther 2 tank gradually fell to the edge of elimination.

Some were assigned to other troops, some were transformed, and the current artillery regiment is equipped with this kind of suppression artillery with Panther 2 chassis!

Monsters!

This makes other troops envious. There is no way. They are their own. Moreover, they are indeed the credit of fighting on the battlefield.

The chassis is of the same model, but the top has changed. On it is a German weapon, a 40 tube 122 mm rocket. In the army, this weapon is affectionately called a Chirac organ tube. Moreover, in order not to cause damage during the March, these rockets are not installed in orbit, but in launch tubes.

Although the chassis is the same, after all, they are suppressing firepower, walking behind the armored forces, and even behind the armored grenadiers, that is, the rear of the whole army.

However, they can give full play to their firepower advantage at any time, because they have the advantage of range. The 122 mm rocket has a maximum range of 20 kilometers, which is enough to provide suppressive firepower at any time when the troops need it!

Now, it's time for them to play!

"Attention, in battle formation, spread out!" The head of the division's rocket artillery regiment shouted on the radio.

When the order came down, his troops were still marching. After receiving the order, they saw the crawler chassis of one vehicle and quickly adjusted their position. 24 launch vehicles were arranged in two rows, 12 in each row.

At this time, the head and the officers around him are the busiest.

Determine the exact position of your side, determine the position of the target, and then provide launch data for your rocket forces.

The launch of rockets is different from the launch of howitzers. Howitzers need to be aimed accurately. For example, if the front forces require to kill a bunker opposite, they must not miss. Even if they are five meters away from the bunker, they can't complete the task.

Rockets are not point killing weapons, but surface killing weapons. Just aim roughly.

So now, after they enter the launch state, it is enough to input exactly the same firing data.

The calculation of the firing data is calculated from within the regiment.

Their task is arduous. If the firing data are determined to be wrong, they may miss. Wasting rockets is one thing. If they hit their own people's heads, they will be in trouble. They all have to go to the military court!

The main way to determine the firing data is to rely on the firing table.
