The mass sea charge was once the last straw for the Japanese army to cross Tsarist Russia, but at the Somme, what they faced was nothing else but German soldiers equipped with the latest lawn mowers.
The battle between the lawn mower and the grass, the final result is self-evident!
Seeing that the charge of the sea of people was ineffective, the Japanese commander who was on top immediately prepared to launch a second wave of brainless attacks. However, before attacking this time, the Germans took the lead in launching a counterattack. In addition to the storm commandos and artillery attacks, the Germans also Launched the self-made tank A7V. This thing is a tank rather than a moving iron fortress. It is filled with 18 people, 14 of whom are machine gunners. The weight of the tank has reached 30 Ton.
In World War I, this thing could really be regarded as a mobile bunker, so the Japanese army, which was preparing to counterattack, was forced to switch to defense. This time, the Germans suffered a big loss. The marksmanship of the Japanese shooters was not inferior to that of the Germans. Many veterans can even compete with snipers. Many German officers who led the charge were so confused that they went to the sky. The two sides fought fiercely for a day without benefiting from it. However, in the report on the civil war, it was said quite a bit. For wonderful.
For example, the Japanese base camp battle report boasted that they killed 100,000 enemies with less than 20,000 casualties, which could be called a major victory on the European battlefield.
But actually, everyone understands it!
As a result, the two sides once again reached a stalemate on the Somme River. The German army had a strong armored force. The Allies could not break through, but the German army could not defeat it either. The two sides could only stare at each other across the trenches with big eyes on each other.
"This won't work, they must be allowed to attack!"
Seeing that the cannon fodder he had brought began to overwhelm the foreign workers, Hephaestus, who was obsessed with ordering the forward machine gun to move to the left, ran to the front line to try to find a plan with Chen Mo.
"this!"
Chen Mo scratched his head in distress, then glanced at the farm not far away, and after confirming that everyone, especially Diana, had fallen asleep, he pulled the other party aside and began to make plans.
"It's like my left hand fights my right hand!"
The reason why the Germans were able to manage the defense line so impenetrably was naturally due to Chen Mo. The God of War gave Ludendorff the latest instructions, asking him to concentrate the armored troops on hand as a counterattack fist, so whenever the Allies stormed an area , and even when it was about to be captured, the torrent of steel would smash everything into pieces.
"To deal with armored forces, of course we have to use armored forces. We must concentrate our efforts to break through, get out of the way, outflank the two wings, and use lightning-fast turning attacks to cut them off!"
"But we don't have that many tanks on hand because transporting troops consumes too much transportation capacity and logistical supplies!"
"Well, then, I have an idea! There is a weapon that is very useful!"
Chen Mo took out his computer and pulled out the anti-tank mines developed by the Japanese army during World War II to deal with American tanks.
"Look, this thing only requires a brave infantryman to rush up and give it a poke!"
Chen Mo made a flowering gesture, and Hephaestus understood it instantly.
"Sounds great!"
Hephaestus' eyes immediately lit up. This weapon was exactly what he needed!
"I'll make arrangements immediately!"
"Okay, I'll wait for the good news!"
Chen Mo then quietly sneaked back into the house. After first making sure that no one in the house was awake, he felt relieved and brought lunch to wake everyone up.
"Come on, come on, it's time to eat, don't sleep!"
"What to eat for lunch?"
The sleepy Diana rubbed her eyes and walked out of her room with a melancholy look on her face. She didn't know it but thought someone owed her money.
But Chen Mo knew the reason, because these days the opponent has been watching the two armies facing each other as if they were playing a chess game. You attack and I attack. Several times, Diana wanted to copy the guys and rush up to demonstrate to these guys, but Chen Mo was blocked.
Stop it.
"Still the same as the third child, but with this!"
Chen Mo brought out a basin of ice cream and handed it to the other party. Trevor and the others were immediately envious when they looked at it, but everyone was just envious. The temptation of the ice cream to a few people was not as attractive as the steak fried by Chen Mo.
“I don’t know how long this kind of life will last!”
Trevor, who didn't care about his eating appearance at all, sat on a stool, with red wine in one hand and a fork in the other, and the juices from his food splashed everywhere.
"It should be soon. We have to trust the generals above. They may be more anxious than us. Maybe, secret weapons are already being developed!"
"What this war needs is not secret weapons, but more people like Diana. With them here, we don't have to worry about a war breaking out!"
"That's not necessarily the case. You have to know that gentlemen don't like having someone take care of them up there!"
Chen Mo shook his head and expressed his negative opinion.
"That's right. You may not know what those gentlemen are thinking!"
Sniper Benji snorted disdainfully. The Scots don't have much favorable impressions of the British government!
"Of course it's money, gentlemen!"
As soon as Hephaestus's new weapon came out, it caused quite a stir among the high-level Allied Powers, for no other reason than that it looked beautiful, but it had very big limitations in its use.
After a sting mine loaded with explosives explodes, the explosives in it not only tilt toward the front, but also toward the rear. In other words, if you use this thing to blow up an enemy tank, not only the tank will die, but also the person operating this weapon will die.
soldiers.
To the generals, this weapon seemed too inhumane...
"The pension for an ordinary soldier is several thousand, but the colonial army and the Japanese don't need us to pay. Think about it, everyone, what is the most lacking thing for us at the moment?"
Hephaestus tilted his head and looked at the shining star in front of him. Finally, he added.
"This weapon even costs just five pounds to make!"
For a time, many generals began to perform crazy addition and subtraction calculations in their brains, and finally they came up with the answer.
At present, the most indispensable thing for the Allied Powers is people. To put it bluntly, even if one of the Allied Powers, which has more than half of the world as colonies, is replaced by ten, they can replace all the Germans!
And best of all, all this without a pension!
Humanity or money, that is the question, but for the British, when do people from other countries count as human beings?
"I think this kind of weapon can definitely play a very good role on the battlefield!"
Soon someone nodded.
"Then, start production immediately. I think the front line will be able to get the items next week!"
