The Rise of the Empire

The truck base of the ft10 at this time seemed to bring some advantages. Although the armor was not good, but relying on the higher power-to-weight ratio on relatively flat roads, they actually became the fastest tanks on the battlefield! But even so, if you want to shorten the distance to 500 meters. It takes about 7 minutes to walk. \u003c/p\u003eDuring this period of time, theoretically each Hu Feng assault gun can fire at least 20 rounds! With the copper shell casings being thrown out of the ejection port, and with the beating and flashing of the artillery, the sprinting French tanks were smashed into pieces. After leaving behind wreckage along the way, the French finally continued to approach the battle line. \u003c/p\u003eThe two sides gradually approached, and then fired wildly. When the distance was close to a certain extent, the thickness of the frontal armor could no longer guarantee their own safety. The shells attacking the head and the shells fired from the sides could still cut through the rough skin. Houhu Feng was destroyed. Although the Bavarian Army had paid great attention to covering the sides of the tanks, the distance between the tanks on the front was only about 30 meters. Considering the angle of incidence, the effective penetration distance was not large, but the French There are too many of them, and the rate of fire of the 75mm cannon is indeed very fast. \u003c/p\u003eCountless shells were flying between the tanks, like a duel between ancient giants. They fought with swords, spears, bows and arrows, and used blood and fire to prove the value of their existence! While the ft10s were turned into burning torches, Hu Feng was hit by shells fired from the side from time to time. The bullet holes and broken road wheels left on the sides of the Hu Feng made Schmidt feel heartbroken. Knife twisters, these are the assets that the kingdom has accumulated in nearly 10 years. Just today, at least half of the chariots were left on the battlefield and became sacrifices to the God of War! \u003c/p\u003eThe French approached very quickly at first, but then slowed down! In fact, it's not that the French's absolute speed has slowed down, nor that Germany's lethality has increased significantly. But because the Germans retreated again! The two staggered lines began to cover and retreat alternately! When the distance between the first batch of Hu Feng assault guns and the opponent drops to about 600 meters, the first row of tanks will reverse directly, while the second row will be responsible for covering, just like the infantry alternately covering the retreat, trying to keep the distance. The cricket tanks on both wings have better tactical selectivity because they are not the target of the opponent's attack. \u003c/p\u003eFacts have proved that tanks with turrets are quite flexible in offensive operations. Because of the death of the company commander, Rommel promoted the temporary acting company commander to the front line. Although there were only 12 tanks, they were not full. However, they still performed excellent tactical coordination. \u003c/p\u003e "700 meters! Fire!" Using the destroyed tanks of both sides, Rommel hid a tank platoon (4 vehicles) on the flank of the attack route of a group of French tanks. Although this distance was a bit far, in the first round The shooting effect was not good. 28 rounds only killed 3 tanks, but the terrifying rate of fire of the machine gun still shocked the French. When the French Renault and FT10 turned around the body artillery turret and prepared to counterattack, the Cricket hidden on the other side also fired a clean salvo! The first team of tanks used this time to retreat decisively after firing a round of shooting. \u003c/p\u003eWhen the French dispersed to search, Rommel, who had retreated a few hundred meters and rejoined the third row, joined the third platoon. The French tanks lacked communication and cooperation, and they could still rely on a huge numerical advantage when they got together. It poses a certain threat, but once it disperses, especially when there are wreckage and smoke everywhere, the cooperation between the French is almost non-existent, and for such a lone opponent, the smaller number of troops will also A wave of counterattacks could be launched. Under the restraint of the second platoon, the concentrated first and third platoons even launched a small-scale assault battle. 8 tanks successfully killed 10 French tanks and then quickly turned into .

\u003c/p\u003eAt a distance of less than 4 kilometers in depth, Rommel continued to use obstacles, cover and fire support from the rear to attack everywhere. Like a cunning poisonous snake, he bit the opponent hard where he didn't expect it, and then in With the help of friendly forces, they retreated completely. Although they did not form a fixed line of defense, they still prevented the opponent from passing through this area and fought a mobile defensive battle. Although the scale is small... \u003c/p\u003eUnder the constant tug-of-war between the two sides, the problem of the French's lack of stamina finally emerged. Especially after the attacks on both wings were frustrated and the preset strategy of separate attacks and combined attacks failed, the French were unable to hold on at first. \u003c/p\u003e "We don’t know how many armored forces the Germans have. We are constantly advancing, paving our way forward with the blood of our comrades. The German tanks are looming in the smoke, constantly harvesting our troops with deadly firepower. Life, and we are constantly attacking our opponents. We cross the wreckage of both sides and rush towards each other, but this road seems to have no end. We have entered the depth of the opponent and have destroyed a large number of enemy tanks, but they Still flowing!"\u003c/p\u003e The constant fighting, blood, fire and death brought the French to their mental and physical limits almost at the same time. After destroying more than 40 Bavaria tanks of various types, the French paid an even higher price. heavy! More than 150 Renaults and FT10s, as well as a large number of self-propelled anti-tank guns that temporarily performed anti-tank missions, remained on the battlefield forever! The five armored battalions involved in the attack and the large number of subsequent reserves suffered nearly 70% battle losses! Well, even so, the French still have more available troops to fight than the Germans…. \u003c/p\u003e"The German tanks seemed to have stopped, they stopped retreating!" When the French found that their opponents were no longer retreating and the remaining tanks were almost concentrated together, the French were overjoyed and felt that victory was right in front of them. At that moment, the sudden firing of the anti-tank gun emplacement dashed the last hope of the French! \u003c/p\u003eDense artillery shells flew over like raindrops, destroying several French tanks in the front row, and then more and more artillery joined in the shooting. The Bavarian armored forces that had retreated also began to counterattack. Facing the artillery shells fired from all directions, the French's spirit finally collapsed. They didn't know how many enemies there were, but subconsciously believed that they had been defeated and had no power to break through the opponent's defense line. \u003c/p\u003eThe forward of the armored battalion who was attacked by the first choice was beaten to pieces. Looking at the friendly tank that suddenly turned into a burning coffin in front of his eyes, the last bit of fighting spirit of the French behind them was also wiped out. They chose to retreat, and some even went into reverse gear without caring about the infantry following them. And more often than not, they choose to expose their most vulnerable rear to their opponents for a more convenient escape! \u003c/p\u003eThe fourth update is here~~~!
