The morning sun shone on the earth, but everything here couldn't match the peace and tranquility. The tank in white camouflage smashed a small sapling, and drove forward with the roar of machinery. The track of the tank pressed over the thin snow and rolled forward with black mud.

"Boom!" There was an explosion in the distance, and a shell hit the village in the distance. On both sides of the road, the bodies of dozens of Belgian soldiers fell on the sides, and a machine gun position was violently moving towards the village. The approaching tank opened fire.

The bullet hit the turret of the tank and splashed a spark, but it could not stop the advance of this tank. On the armor of the tank full of bullet marks, a series of fuzzy numbers-113 were written with hollow numbers. Yes, the ace of the 3rd Panzer Division of the SS, which represents death, is attacking. Their goal is to seize the huge bridge behind the village.

"Clark, pay attention to the front position." Ren said, staring at the captain's looking glass. "Andre, about 30 degrees to the front right. Did you see the haystack? I suspect a heavy machine gun is hidden there. Anti-aircraft gun! "

"Understood." Andre began to turn the turret. When the turret turned to the position, Andre fired without waiting for Renn's order.

"Boom!" The body of the tank was shocked, and the surrounding dust and white snow were all swept into the sky by a strong air current. A shell hit the haystack directly and flew into the air with a pile of scrap iron and corpses.

"Pretty! A 40mm Bofors anti-aircraft gun! Just waiting for us to turn it! Treat us as a rookie." Renn saw the results and laughed and patted Andrea's shoulders, then turned his head to the head. Khan's Bruce ordered: "Bruce! Continue to load high explosive shells ..."

Then he grabbed the talker and put it near his throat: "Let your infantry spread out! Follow the tank and you will be attacked in a concentrated manner!"

What he said was for the armored grenadiers who followed, in order to attack this important transportation hub, it gathered almost all the troops they could find. A full two armoured grenadiers, as well as seven tanks including Rennes. The Belgian bridge guard they attacked is said to have no anti-tank gun.

The reaction rate of the Belgian defenders is relatively fast, but they are still not ready to face Germany's armored forces in battle. Rennes has added four records to himself these days, just three artillery and one car. Compared to Poland on the Eastern Front, there is less to be able to Rennes this Leopard tank.

The bullet can only leave a shallow pit on the front armor plate of the leopard tank he is driving, just like the shallow shallow asako on his face. But these mottled traces illustrate the experience of this tank, which is as awesome as a military medal.

The Iron Cross of the Knights hung on Ryan ’s neck, shaking slightly as his tank advanced. From his periscope, he saw the Belgian infantry sifted by Clark, and also saw the enemy machine gun positions submerged in white smoke by Andre with coaxial machine guns.

Compared with when I was in Poland, this car group has no tension, and is replaced by a pleasing smooth cooperation. For them, it is their job to attack and slaughter. What they need to do is very simple, that is, to kill any opponents to survive.

So that kind of excited shouting has disappeared. Except for some necessary explanations, everyone tries not to interfere with other people's work, except when they need to stop and fire, Andre will kick Bowman The back of the chair.

The German armored grenadiers are also more experienced in combat. The crazy but rigid offensive of the past has disappeared, replaced by extremely efficient means of attack.

The simple machine gun position established directly behind is firing violently, and the unique sound of the g42 machine gun is the most beautiful note in the ears of the German infantry.

After summarizing its own combat experience, the German and German infantry developed effective basic tactics, which were mainly based on machine guns. The infantry squad consists of a machine gun team and a rifle team. During the attack, the machine gun team is responsible for suppressing the enemy stronghold. The rifle team then uses the terrain to approach the enemy stronghold, and then uses the assault rifle and the g43 ’s powerful suppression ability or grenades to destroy the enemy in close combat. .

The general procedure is that the machine gun first occupies the appropriate shooting position, and the rifle group simultaneously detours to the flank; then the machine gun fires from the front to attract and suppress the enemy's firepower, and the rifle group approaches from the wing or rear, and then depends on the rifle group's bravery and hands Of melee weapons destroy opponents in the stronghold.

During defense, the position is divided into several sections or several independent strongholds, with the machine gun team as the core, and the rifle team is responsible for vigilance and protection of the machine gun team. In short, machine guns are the mainstay of firepower in defense. So pay special attention to the protection of machine guns. Once the machine guns are destroyed, defense will be extremely difficult.

In actual combat in Poland, the Germans often used platoon companies instead of squadrons. But the principle of combat is the same. Only the use of the mortar or heavy machine gun belonging to the platoon company was added. mg42 is fully capable of meeting the German tactical needs. It has a very good suppression ability. Because its range is basically the same as that of machine guns in various countries, plus its much higher rate of fire, the general machine gun can't get the upper hand in mg42.

In fact, the tactics used by Germany today are all extremely "playful" styles based on weapon superiority. For example, the use of communication has the advantage of artillery power, and the concentrated use of tanks to break through the opponent's defense line; for example, the use of fighter performance advantages generally use high-altitude dive attack tactics; for example, the use of general machine guns and assault rifles to suppress opponents.

"Suddenly! Suddenly! Suddenly! Suddenly!" Seeing the German tank was not easy to adjust the direction, and based on combat experience has been removed two anti-aircraft positions, the Belgian defenders finally could not bear, a door hidden in the corner The Bofors anti-aircraft gun fired early.

Because it is an anti-aircraft gun, Bofors has a very high rate of fire. Taking advantage of the leopard tank to switch the muzzle of the muzzle, this artillery tilted 7 rounds of 40-mm high-speed artillery shells towards Rennes ’tank at a stretch.

Although the front armor of the leopard tank is very sturdy, although these shells cannot effectively penetrate the front armor of the leopard tank, this fierce combination of punches stunned the Rennes. The strong vibration made people dizzy. Ren felt his internal organs dangling in the tank. The temporarily installed armor steel plate in front of the tank was actually penetrated, and because of the vibration, the solder joints fell off, and half of them turned out to be. Fell to the ground.

"Bauman! Reverse!" Rennes, still in a dizzy state, knew he had to adjust his position at this time and quickly issued an order.

But it seemed that the beaten had lost a sense of direction, and Bowman drove the tank forward. The half of the dropped armor plate rested on the car body, and the other half was inserted on the ground. The tank was bent as soon as it advanced, and then Ding Dang Dang was kicked to the side by the track.

Ryan shook his dizzy head and shouted to Andre aloud: "Front! At about 11 o'clock! Near the broken low wall! Aim and fire! No need to wait!"

"Boom!" As soon as his words fell, the artillery fire of the leopard tank revenge rang. A shell directly hit the low wall, breaking it into a cracked broken brick, but this shell was a bit far away. The Belgian defending Bofors anti-aircraft gun was on the right side of the low wall, but this shell hit On the left side of the low wall.

"Ryan! You idiot! At the end I have to watch me to save you!" An arrogant voice rang in the headphones.

As soon as the words fell, right behind the Bofors anti-aircraft gun, a tank climbed a steep **** and smashed the fence wall behind them. The Belgian soldiers were frightened by the sudden blow, and immediately fled with their helmets and armor, and the steaming Bofors was also abandoned.

However, the tank that rushed up did not seem to intend to let go of any enemies, and the machine guns kept firing, knocking several Belgian defenders on the ground.

"It's up to you here!" Rennes recovered, and he saw the Belgian defenders retreating towards the bridge, apparently they wanted to push to the other side, and then blow up the bridge. So Ren made a crazy command loudly: "Bauman! Go ahead at full speed! Overtake these Belgians and drive to the bridge."

So a crazy scene appeared in the eyes of the German team and the Belgian army. A leopard tank with mottled bullets suddenly started accelerating and flew on the highway at a very fast speed.

Soon the tank was released from the cover of the German infantry. Its machine guns continued to fire and knocked down the Belgian soldiers one after another. Soon because of the fear of casualties, the retreating Belgian soldiers consciously gave way.

The tank went forward frantically, passing the German soldiers chasing it, passing the Belgian soldiers who were running away, and finally rushed to occupy the bridge before everyone approached. Suddenly the tank opened its hatch, and an officer with a gun jumped out of his turret.

In the shocked eyes of everyone, he threw a grenade clenched in his palm, and hit dozens of bullets at the Belgian troop. Then he carried the lightly muzzle and jumped off the tank and shouted: "Surrender! Or die!"

Soon the Belgian defenders gave up resistance, they threw their guns to the ground and raised their hands high ...

The Germans stormed the Meuse River at an incredible speed, taking advantage of the negligence of the defenders to capture the important bridge. The steel torrent of the A Group Army broke through the Meuse River defense line in only three hours. They are now coloring the current Enter, and there, it can be said to be the traffic center behind the British and French coalition forces.
