The German offensive force, which has both air raid support and artillery support, is rarely able to survive. Although the scale, density, and actual effect of the firepower preparation before the attack may not be very good, at least it is better than nothing, isn't it?
?What kind of bicycles are needed when everything is like this? The first wave of assaults that followed were indeed more intense than in the past.
boom--
Ding-ding——
call out--
"Don't worry, it's not penetrated! At 11 o'clock, the German's Black Panther, fire and send him to the sky!"
"Loading completed!"
"Death! Fasis!"
boom--
It's not polite to reciprocate. The 75mm full-caliber hooded armor-piercing bullet that hit the upper part of the is6 heavy tank's body was bounced off on the spot. It was quickly retaliated by a 122mm full-caliber armor-piercing bullet of the same type.
The 122 armor-piercing projectile, which spanned a firing distance of more than 800 meters, hit the armor plate on the front of the Panther's body, shooting out fierce and dazzling steel sparks.
Just like the German advance troops that were wiped out previously, the main German forces that arrived later also used the outdated Panther 1 medium tank. It can be seen that although the Panther 1 has long been discontinued, there is still a considerable stock that has not been consumed.
When all is exhausted, it is still enough to form the equipment scale of the entire establishment.
This level of sloping armor defense on the front of the Panther 1 car body can still not withstand the fierce blow of the 122 Heirloom even if it is extended to a distance of 800 meters.
The powerful and heavy full-caliber armor-piercing projectile carried extremely strong caliber crushing kinetic energy, directly smashing open the front armor of the Panther's body like a heavy hammer and pouring into it.
Just like most of the Panther 1s that were taken away by one shot of the 122 cannon, this unlucky Panther 1 could not escape the tragic end of being detonated by the ammunition of its predecessors, and the stone head was separated in an instant.
The turret was thrown off during the shock, flames shot into the sky, and it was blown to pieces on the spot.
This is the outcome of being penetrated by the 122 Heirloom with a huge warhead charge, no matter you are No. 3, No. 4, Panther, Tiger, or even King Tiger. With the blessing of a huge warhead charge
The ultra-high ammunition explosion probability is equal to all, and all living beings are equal under the aftereffects of the 122 heirloom nuclear bomb. It is basically such a simple truth.
Stalin's 1st Guards Tank Division, which abandoned all unnecessary and cumbersome equipment in pursuit of complete mechanization, did not even have a few decent anti-tank guns, but this does not mean that this legendary ace unit lacked anti-tank weapons.
Firepower.
The division's more than two hundred heavy artillery pieces with a caliber above 100 mm mounted on vehicles and protected by heavy armor and fully enclosed protection were a terrible nightmare that the German armored forces could not escape.
The heavy tanks and isu-152 self-propelled artillery were deployed on the position. The defensive position serving as an anti-tank bunker looked like a deadly hedgehog full of steel thorns. The Germans who wanted to swallow this hedgehog whole in one breath had not yet
As soon as he had time to stuff it into his mouth, he was pricked and his mouth was filled with blood in an instant. The flaming wreckage that was destroyed on the offensive road was not just a few vehicles in single digits.
The German army, which was absolutely unwilling to give up, was still charging forward. The steel fortresses deployed on the position were turning their turrets to search for the next target. The black muzzles fired out the same deadly tongues of flame just like before.
Only this time, the result that followed was slightly different.
Ding-ding——
crackling——
call out--
The shrill scream that broke through the air was immediately followed by the harsh sound of sparks flying and ricocheting. The Panther tank, which was also shot on the front of the vehicle, withstood this powerful and heavy blow. The entire tank
The tank continued to press the accelerator and charged forward without even stopping.
Malashenko, who clearly witnessed this scene from his commander's periscope, raised his lips, and it was not that surprising that such a situation would occur.
"Mixed together, right? Let's see how many Black Panther IIs you have mixed in!"
boom--
Crunch, crunch, crunch——
There is no reason why the Red Army should not use the defensive weapons that the Germans make good use of. The anti-tank minefield laid out in front of the position is a masterpiece just laid last night.
A Black Panther II, whose tracks were broken in the loud explosion, stumbled forward like a vicious dog with its legs broken and slid sideways for several meters before it came to a stop.
The situation of being in a high-speed off-road state meant that even if its tracks were blown off, it would still continue to move forward with inertia that could not be stopped for an instant, and the completely destroyed left walking device could not support its normal driving.
Disjointed.
The final result was that the remaining running gear on the left side of the car was already floating in the air, and the broken tracks were thrown away due to inertia. It drifted sideways on the spot, and the grass and soil flew up.
Most of his belly was turned sideways, and he was directly exposed to the direct fire from the Red Army's position. He was sentenced to death in an instant.
"Poor bastard, what's the difference between this and a drunkard?"
The principle of killing you while you are sick applies at any time. The battlefield is not a bullshit duel ground that values fairness.
Malashenko, who was muttering softly, saw that the unlucky Panther 2 turned into a blazing torch in the next second, like a volcano erupting. An armor-piercing bullet flew from nowhere, tearing apart the fragile
The vertical armor on the side of the car body was poured into it, and the crew members who were not even given a chance to escape were all lifted up and blasted into the sky.
In fact, these anti-tank mines are not equipment of Stalin's 1st Guards Tank Division itself. Instead, the commander of a certain Guards Infantry Division in the rear heard that Comrade Ma was going to fight a defensive war, so he specially sent some vehicles to carry them.
It was sent here along with supporting troops, and someone told me that they hoped it could be of some use.
Judging from the current results, this thing has obviously played a role like a stumbling block, throwing a tantrum into the Germans who were not expecting it.
Not one of the German tanks, which rushed too hard and seemed unable to stop for a while, fell into an anti-tank mine and had its tracks blown off on the spot.
The Panthers and No. 4 vehicles that were at the front were paralyzed by the crackling mine explosions and were forced to stop.
The fact of running headlong into a minefield was already obvious. Even the unlucky infantrymen following the tanks stepped on the mines, taking their unlucky comrades who had not had time to avoid them with them and "flying into the air" together.
How many mines have the Russians laid? Are there other more exciting things waiting ahead? Should we rush through the minefield now or retreat?
Survival or destruction, this is a classic question that has once again been thrown to the front of the German army.
Malashenko would have preferred to see these bastards bravely charging forward, but the actual result was obviously not satisfactory.
Looking at the German offensive troops retreating like a tide before they even touched the position, Malashenko, who was quite disappointed with the first wave of attacks but ended in an anticlimax, also saw something worth noting.
"It seems that the troops are still insufficient. If there were enough troops, they would definitely rush through the minefields. It's not like Kursk has done this before. It seems that the air strikes of the aviation forces really pulled the march of these Germans forward.
