At 11:20 am, the 11th Armored Division of the German Army suffered heavy losses and had to withdraw from the battle and fled eastward in a panic. It took only an hour from the beginning to the end of the battle, but during this hour of battle,
The 11th Armored Division of the German Army paid a heavy price! During the fierce battle between the two sides, the 11th Armored Division of the German Army had more than 120 tanks of No. 4, plus the tanks that were previously destroyed by the carrier-based aircraft units of the Chinese Navy.
The 11th Armored Division of the German Army lost 150 No. 4 tanks, which is equivalent to 70% of the tanks of this Armored Division! Such losses caused the 11th Armored Division of the German Army to suffer severe damage.
However, Major General Guderian's tragedy has not ended there. When the 11th Armored Division of the German Army had just withdrawn from the battlefield, a squadron of the Chinese Army's aviation company, a squadron of Q5' Night Owl's Attack Plane arrived at the battlefield! Although the distance between the Asians
Sicily has 600 kilometers, but with the powerful air stagnation ability of the Q5's Night Owl' attack aircraft, even if it rushes from Corsica to Ester at high speed and leaves enough return fuel, it can at least stay on the battlefield.
In about an hour, I can already provide firepower support to the Chinese Army for a period of time!
After 36 Q5 Night Owl's attack aircraft of this brigade caught up with the retreating German Army's 11th Armored Division, they immediately launched an attack! Each Q5 Night Owl's attack aircraft carried 4 250 kilograms of aviation bombs. 36 aircraft
Q5'Yeon Owl's attack aircraft is 144 bombs. Although the hit rate of the Q5'Yeon Owl's attack aircraft is not as good as that of the dive bomber, more than 100 bombs were dropped intensively, and more than ten No. 4 tanks were destroyed. For these
For tank No. 4, the biggest threat is not the bomb dropped by the Q5's Night Owl's attacker. It is the cannon! The power of the 37mm aviation cannon is not weak. Although it is not enough to penetrate the front armor of tank No. 4, it is used to deal with it.
There is really no problem with the weak top of the tank!
"Dongdong!" A Q5' Night Owl's attacking machine quickly flew over a No. 4 tank, and the cannon on the nose quickly opened fire. A series of shells shot out and hit the moving No. 4 vehicle.
The fragile armor on the top of the tank was torn apart, and the entire tank was burning.
The Chinese Army Air Force's attack aircraft hovered over the head of the 11th Armored Division of the German Army, constantly attacking the tanks, one after another, and one tank after another was destroyed. Major General Guderian jumped up in anger. The 11th
The armored division had already suffered heavy losses before, and was then air strikes by Chinese planes. This was completely wiped out!
The air defense forces of the 11th Armored Division of the German Army operate anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns to fire on aircraft in the air, but the effect is not great. These powerful aircraft are equipped with armor in key areas to resist the shooting of anti-aircraft machine guns. As long as they are not directly hit by anti-aircraft guns,
There would be no danger of being shot down. The entire aerial strike lasted only twenty minutes. However, the remaining tanks of the 11th Armored Division of the German Army were basically destroyed. Only a few tanks saw the plane and were in time
Only after driving into the woods next to the road were able to survive. But what use is the remaining tanks? The 11th Armored Division of the German Army suffered heavy losses in this battle!
The 19th Armored Brigade of the Chinese Army suffered a significant loss in this battle. A total of nearly forty tanks were destroyed, and almost one tank battalion of troops was lost. However, with the assistance of the naval carrier-based aircraft units and the army aviation forces.
Below, the tank troops of the 11th Armored Division of the German Army were almost wiped out. By this calculation, a great victory was achieved!
The 11th Armored Division of the German Army was almost wiped out, which shocked the German Army. In addition, the 19th Army of the Chinese Army was launching an attack on the depth of the German army along the gap in the breakthrough. German commander Karl von Enem came on
He will order the entire army to retreat to preserve his strength! Although he has three armored divisions under his command, the 11th armored division lost too badly. Under the joint attack of the Chinese armored troops and aircraft, the entire army was wiped out.
It made General Carl von Enem afraid that even if the remaining three armored divisions were put into the battlefield, he would follow in the footsteps of the 11th armored division.
The German army's full retreat made the crisis of the Ester basically come into contact with. When the German army was not sure to defeat the Chinese army, they would not easily launch an attack. Especially when they could not control air supremacy, this is even more so! The Chinese Army
During the attack on January 13, the 19th Army not only annihilated an armored division of the German Army, but also surrounded an infantry division. When the German main force retreated, the infantry division was a little slower and was defeated by China.
Two motorized infantry divisions of the 19th Army Army were surrounded. After a hard battle, most of the German infantry division was destroyed, and the remaining people surrendered like the 19th Army of the Chinese Army!
The victory of the 19th Army of the Chinese Army greatly encouraged the Austro-Hungarian Crown Prince Carl and the Austro-Hungarian Government. This was their first victory after the German Army invaded the Austro-Hungarian Empire!
Afterwards, the 19th Army of the Chinese Army launched several attacks with the cooperation of the Air Force, Naval Aviation and Army Aviation, driving the German army out of the Binhai Province.
German commander General Carl von Enem blamed the loss of air supremacy for the failure this time. Without air supremacy, the German Army suffered heavy losses due to the bombing of Chinese aircraft!
It was the disastrous defeat of the 11th Armored Division of the German Army, which had a lot to do with the attack of the Chinese aircraft. Admiral Carl von Enem strongly demanded that the Air Force provide air cover for the Army, otherwise they would not be able to defeat the Chinese and conquer Ya.
Ster. However, as Chinese Air Force fighter jets entered the airports around Ester, it would be even more difficult for the Luftwaffe to regain air supremacy in the region!
At 2:00 p.m. on January 13, Berlin time, German Emperor William II held a military meeting with a dark face. The failure of the army's offense hit him a huge blow. He lags behind China in the navy and air force.
The second generation has already recognized it. After all, the gap between the two sides is too big, and Germany can't catch up for a while. However, the army is Germany's strength, and now even the army has been defeated by the Chinese, which makes Germany's face go where
?This also made German Emperor William II doubt whether he could defeat China!
German Army Secretary and Chief of Staff Marshal Falkenhain, Navy Secretary Marshal Tirpitz, Air Force Commander-in-Chief General Schultz and Crown William all attended the meeting. However, everyone's faces were a little ugly.
.The failure of the German Army this time made them feel as if they were slapped by the Chinese.
"Martyr Falkenhead, does the Army have any explanation for the soldiers this time?" William II asked coldly. He was already a little dissatisfied with Marshal Falkenhead. He even planned to replace him.
The Chief of Staff of the German Army.
"Your Majesty, General Carl von Enem has sent back the detailed battle report! This morning, the 19th Army of the Chinese Army launched an attack on our army, and then the two sides engaged in a large-scale tank battle.
Judging from the results of the battle, the Imperial Army failed! The 11th Armored Division of the Imperial Army was wiped out! The 19th Armored Brigade of the Chinese suffered minor losses! According to the analysis of the General Staff, the tanks and soldiers of the Chinese armored troops were found in the Chinese.
In terms of quality, it is indeed better than the quality of the Imperial No. 4 tank and soldiers! It is estimated that the gap in this area will be completely reversed after the No. 5 tank is in service!" said Marshal Falkenhain.
German Emperor William II nodded. The German Army had a total of 14 armored divisions, and each armored division was a treasure of the German Army. This time, annihilated an armored division, which really made him very heartbroken.
"Apart from the gap between the two sides, are there any other reasons?" William II asked. There is a gap between the quality of German tanks and tank soldiers and China. William II knew that. He also knew that it was necessary to short-term
It is difficult to make up for it in time.
"Your Majesty, another important reason is that we have lost air supremacy! In this battle, the Chinese dispatched planes twice to attack the 11th Armored Division. Once, before the tank battle between the two sides, the Chinese dispatched twenty Chinese dispatched twenty
Multiple aircraft destroyed more than 20 tanks of the 11th Armored Division. After the 11th Armored Division withdrew from the battlefield, the Chinese once again dispatched more than 30 aircraft to all the dozens of tanks left by the 11th Armored Division.
Destroy! If we had air supremacy, even if the 11th Armored Division would lose, it would not have lost so badly!" Marshal Falkenhain said.
"Your Majesty, the Air Force's main energy is now focused on preventing the Chinese Air Force from attacking the local area! According to the news we have obtained, the Chinese have sent more than 500 strategic bombers to the Mediterranean region, which can help the bomber.
The empire's homeland poses a serious threat! Therefore, the Imperial Air Force is temporarily unable to invest too much force on other battlefields!" said General Schultz.
"Should the Imperial Army be bombed by the Chinese?" Marshal Falkenhain said with some dissatisfaction.
"Marson Marshal! In fact, Chinese aircraft in Aster basically take off from aircraft carriers! These aircraft carriers are all in the Adriatic Sea. If these aircraft carriers can be destroyed, then the Chinese will be against Aster
The opportunity for air support has dropped a lot!" Admiral Schultz suggested!
Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up. If they could sink the Chinese aircraft carrier, it seemed that all the problems would be solved!
