Iron Germany

"Come on! To survive, break through the German defense line. Kill them all!" More than 6,000 Russian cavalry shouted loudly.

The whips in their hands slapped the horse's buttocks fiercely. Under the pain, the horse gradually began to speed up.

More than 6,000 war horses, that is, nearly 25,000 horse legs. These horse legs trampled on the ground, making a thunderous sound, as if the ground was shaking.

The Russian army dispatched cavalry, and the German army knew it immediately.

"General, it is already very difficult for the front line to resist the Russian infantry attack. If the Russian cavalry launches an attack, it may be very difficult to resist." A staff officer was a little worried.

"The Russian cavalry should be the last force they have prepared. If we can resist their cavalry, then there will be no suspense in this battle." A colonel staff officer said.

Lieutenant General Francois nodded. He also knew that resisting the attack of the Russian cavalry would be the key to this battle. If it resists, the Russian army in the encirclement will be finished. In the case of heavy losses, it is impossible for them to break through the encirclement of the German army. But if it is not able to withstand it, then this time's combat operation may fall short. At that time, the main force of the surrounded Russian army will withdraw. The losses of the German army may also rise further. Although, in this battle, they have already wiped out many Russian troops. But Lieutenant General Francois hopes that this battle can be drawn to a perfect end.

What's more, although the combat effectiveness of the Russian army is very poor, since they can become the standing army of the Russian army, these soldiers must be good. If they are put back, and when they are rearmed, it may cause Germany a lot of trouble again. Lieutenant General Francois does not want this to happen.

"Hmph! Do the Russians think their cavalry is a powerful assault force? You know, our armored force is the most powerful assault force." A staff officer said disdainfully.

Lieutenant General François' eyes immediately brightened. Indeed, the combat effectiveness of the 8th Armored Division had been tested in the Battle of Tannenburg. That is definitely a powerful assault force, surpassing any previous troops.

"Give order to the 8th Armored Division and let them go into battle immediately. Since the Russians want to use cavalry to break through our defenses, let them touch the 8th Armored Division. Look at their cavalry Powerful, or our armored force." Lieutenant General Francois ordered.

"Yes, General."

The 8th Armored Division, the moment the battle began, was ready for battle. It's just that no combat order has been received. So, they've been resting.

After receiving the order, the armored soldiers launched their tanks and rushed to the battlefield immediately.

After the replacement of the new tanks, the number of tanks owned by the 8th Armored Division has been restored to more than two hundred. Moreover, the newly mass-produced tanks have made many improvements. Especially in terms of reliability, it has improved a lot. This made the armored soldiers not have to worry. When fighting on the battlefield, the tank would be turned off, unable to move forward, and could only watch the enemy slip away.

"Ulla! Ulla!"

"Kill all the Germans!"

On the battlefield, the Russian infantry cheered when they saw the cavalry charge. They lost a large number of corpses in front of the German line of defense. They have been beaten down and lost confidence.

Now, the appearance of the cavalry has restored their confidence. After all, in the eyes of ordinary Russian soldiers, their cavalry is the most powerful, and no one can stop their cavalry from attacking. Any enemy will be crushed in front of the cavalry's charge.

The cavalry of the Russian army launched a fierce attack amidst the cheers of the infantry. They seem to be full of confidence, thinking that they will be able to break through the defense line of the opposing German army.

However, at this moment. Iron bumps appeared on the German defense line. Under the sunlight, these iron bumps shone with a cold light. Even though it's August, it's hot weather. But the officers and soldiers of the Russian army still felt a kind of coldness that penetrated into the bone marrow in this scene.

"What is that?" The Russian cavalry who were charging also found the iron bumps that were slowly approaching them.

"What the hell are the Germans doing? Do they think they can withstand the charge of the heroic Cossack cavalry?"

These Russian cavalry don't know what those are. However, the Russian generals watching the battle in the rear couldn't help but pale. From the intelligence from Warsaw, they already knew that the German army had a secret weapon that was invulnerable. The disastrous defeat of the Second Army was largely due to the attack of this secret weapon of the German army.

"Can our cavalry defeat these iron bumps?" No Russian general would think that the Russian cavalry has this ability. After all, the lessons learned by the Second Army have already explained all this!

"Boom! Boom!"

The tanks of the German 8th Armored Division began to fire, and shells flew into the cavalry ranks of the Russian army one after another, blowing up many Russian generals from their horses.

"God!" The Russian cavalry couldn't help but exclaimed.

At this time, the tank continued to move forward, and the distance between the tank and the Russian cavalry was getting closer.

"Da da da!"

When the tank's coaxial machine guns and directional machine guns began to fire, the dense rain of bullets suddenly made the charging Russian cavalry feel as if they had hit an invisible wall.

The brave Russian cavalry and their horses were smashed against this invisible wall.

"Machine guns! The Germans have machine guns in those iron lumps."

"Too many machine guns, too much firepower, we simply can't get through!"

The confidence on the faces of the Russian Cossack cavalry has long since disappeared, replaced by panic.

Facing the tanks of the German 8th Armored Division, they simply couldn't rush through.

A large number of Russian cavalry suffered heavy casualties in the face of the powerful firepower of the 8th Armored Division. The Russian cavalry in front fell, and the Russian cavalry behind rushed up and were beaten into a sieve.

The rest of the Russian cavalry all reined in their horses in horror, not daring to move forward.

The tanks of the 8th Armored Division are still slowly approaching, constantly using tank guns and machine guns to harvest the lives of the Russian cavalry.

Under such a blow, the Russian cavalry quickly collapsed. The remaining troops fled back in embarrassment.

As for the infantry of the Russian army, they had already retreated immediately. Even the Cossack cavalry are no match for those iron lumps, let alone them.

The last chance of the Russian army was killed by the 8th Armored Division. They have no way out.
