Iron Germany
Chapter 887 Breakdown
"Da da da! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
General-purpose machine guns and squad machine guns, as well as mortars and grenadiers on the German Marine Corps positions, all started firing frantically. The dense bullets enveloped the Spanish Army like a storm.
The attacking Spanish troops, crowded on the narrow offensive front, became a living target for the intensive firepower of the German marines.
Although, the German Army and Marine Corps are the same, each battalion has only 41 squad machine guns and 15 general machine guns. However, a total of 55 machine guns are deployed on positions less than one kilometer long, and there is almost one machine gun every twenty meters or less. Such a firepower density is undoubtedly very astonishing.
Moreover, the troops on the first line of defense can also receive fire support from mortars and grenades on the rear line of defense. Because the terrain of Gibraltar is inherently narrow. Therefore, a regiment of the German army must be scattered on several lines of defense. The distance between these lines of defense is only more than a hundred meters. Therefore, mortars and grenades can fully resource the front line of defense. If you are not afraid of bullets hitting your comrades in front, even machine gun fire can be used as reinforcements.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
One after another, mortar shells and grenades fired by grenades fell into the queue of the Spanish army. The shell exploded, setting off a bloodbath in the Spanish army's queue. The shrapnel flew across, easily taking away a lot of fresh lives, causing great losses to the attacking Spanish army.
"Oh my God! How can the firepower of the Germans be so powerful, and how can their troops be equipped with so many machine guns and light artillery!" The Spanish general in charge of commanding the attack was stunned, as if he couldn't believe it at all.
"General, the firepower of the Germans is too strong, we can't resist it at all! The casualties of the troops are too great. If one regiment goes up, half of the casualties will be lost in less than ten minutes. If this continues, the troops will quickly die. will collapse."
"Damn it! The general gave an order to continue the attack. Without an order, don't retreat!"
On the artillery position of the 2nd Division of the German Marine Corps, the cannons of the cannons have already raised their muzzles. Adjustments are being made based on data sent back by artillery observers at the front.
When all the cannons were ready, the artillery commander gave the order to fire!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Eighteen 150mm heavy howitzers, 36 105mm light howitzers, and 54 75mm field guns all started shelling frantically. The dense rain of bullets hit the Spanish army that was launching an attack.
The dense shells sounded in the queue of the Spanish army, which further increased the casualties of the Spanish army.
"God! The German artillery is so powerful, how could we break through their defense line."
"Unless it is God's manifestation, it is impossible for our soldiers to launch an attack against such dense artillery fire and bullet rain from the Germans. This is no longer a war, but a massacre! The Germans are relying on the strength of their firepower to wantonly Massacre our army. We can't continue to attack, it will kill all our troops. We can't let our army go to death for nothing like this!"
The generals of the Spanish army were terrified after seeing this scene. Although, they stay in the safe rear. However, they could imagine how desperate the frontline troops were when they attacked.
"Boom! Boom!"
There was an explosion that seemed to shake the earth, and a large ball of fire rose from the Spanish army's offensive line.
"Naval gun! This is the main gun of the battleship! The Germans will bombard us with the main gun of the battleship!"
"It's not fair! The Germans actually used the main guns of the battleship. This is really unfair!"
Although, for the Spaniards, the behavior of the German army this time seems to be bullying the small with the big. However, they have nothing to do with it.
The main guns of battleships are too powerful. When dealing with soft targets on the ground, they use high-explosive bombs. After such shells accurately fell into the queue of the Spanish army, the scene they caused was like hell. Every shell exploded, forming a blank space in the queue of the Spanish army. All the Spanish troops in this area were bombed to pieces.
"God! Run away! We can't beat the Germans at all. Such intensive vitality, if we launch an attack, it is no different from courting death."
"I won't fight anymore, I want to go home!"
The attacking Spanish army suffered heavy losses under such intensive vitality blows. Similarly, it also caused their morale to drop completely to freezing point. When seeing his comrades being blown to pieces, even the bravest soldiers would feel fear in their hearts.
Under heavy losses, the attacking Spanish army collapsed directly. A large number of soldiers fled in panic. They ignored the repression of those officers. In other words, even the officers who were supposed to prevent the rout of the army fled with the rout.
After all, those officers are human beings, too, and can be timid too. Seeing that the German artillery was so powerful, they didn't have the courage to continue fighting.
The attacking Spanish army was quickly defeated. A lot of corpses were left behind. It took less than half an hour from their attack to their complete defeat. However, there were layers upon layers of corpses left on the battlefield, and I don't know how many there were.
Not only the Spaniards were frightened, but also the soldiers of the German Marine Corps. The scene where the large-caliber naval gun exploded two to three hundred meters away from them was also a shock to them. Watching the enemy soldiers being torn to pieces, this feeling is really thrilling.
"God! I hope the guys in the navy take aim and don't drop the shells on us. We'll be dead then."
"This battle is too simple! The fierce shelling of the navy alone is enough to eliminate the Spaniards. There is nothing wrong with us at all!"
"It would be great if every battle was like this. Our losses would be much smaller."
People are always going to die in war, and if you don't kill your own people, you will die the enemy. Of course, everyone hopes that their side will pay less losses and the enemy will pay more losses.
The attack of the Spanish army was defeated directly in front of the powerful firepower of the German army. Less than half of the more than 20,000 people fled back. At the same time, the rest of the people were also scared out of their wits and didn't dare to fight anymore.
