- For the German troops stationed in Gary, the biggest threat to the soldiers was this heavy artillery group. In addition, they were equipped with a large number of combat defense artillery. These things also pose a great threat to the ground attack that the 1st Army will launch. .
In order to reduce casualties, we must take the lead in destroying this German heavy artillery group.
The German troops stationed in Gary never expected that the Chinese [***] Squadron had already targeted their own heavy artillery group. When the two armies faced each other, and if both sides had heavy artillery, generally no one would be willing to take the lead in firing. Once they took the lead in firing, That means the location is exposed.
Once the position is exposed, the opponent's heavy artillery group will carry out retaliatory bombardment against itself. Maybe, your own heavy artillery group will be destroyed immediately. You must know that the range of heavy artillery is far beyond that of small-caliber artillery. The range often exceeds ten kilometers, and some are even more than twenty kilometers.
Heavy artillery has such a range. The only thing you can do is to strictly keep the location of your heavy artillery group secret and not let the other party know your position. Once the other party knows your position, these heavy heavy artillery will be very troublesome to move, and it will not be a short time. If you can move within a few seconds, you may still be moving, but the opponent's artillery fire will cover you.
Of course, self-propelled howitzers are much better. They can be moved within a short time after firing, while rocket launchers are more convenient. You can leave immediately after firing.
The Germans never expected that the reconnaissance aircraft of the Squadron [***] had been conducting reconnaissance in the Gary area for several days and that their artillery positions had been discovered.
¡°If it were not to find out the location of the German heavy artillery group, the 1st Army might have launched an attack long ago, and there would be no need to wait there for five full days to figure out the German situation before taking action today.
As for the heavy artillery positions of the 1st Group, they have always been a secret. The German army has not yet figured out where these heavy artillery groups are. In the past few days, the German army has sent many reconnaissance teams to infiltrate the 1st Group Army. However, no one was successful in the reconnaissance of the defense zone. Basically, they were killed or captured by the soldiers of the 1st Army.
In the past few days, the German troops stationed in Gary had limited intelligence, which was far less detailed than that of the 1st Army.
Without the Germans knowing anything, the 1st Army began to attack the German heavy artillery positions.
The task was performed by a mechanized infantry regiment and a rocket launcher regiment. The mechanized infantry regiment was tasked with covering, but it was the rocket launcher regiment that actually attacked the German heavy artillery group.
This rocket artillery regiment belongs to the heavy artillery brigade of the 1st Group Army. The heavy artillery brigade has three regiments. In addition to two heavy artillery regiments, each regiment is equipped with 36 155mm howitzers, it is this rocket artillery regiment equipped with dozens of rocket launchers.
In the vast desert, a long convoy is driving.
Although this is a coastal area, it is dry and rainless, and the vegetation is not lush at all. Most of the vegetation is desert or next door, as well as some drought-tolerant plants.
This long convoy is a rocket launcher regiment heading to a predetermined location to perform a mission. There are a total of sixty rocket launchers. Each launch vehicle is filled with rockets, and each vehicle has a total of 40 200 mm caliber rockets. rocket missile.
On the flanks and front of the convoy, you can also see a lot of Type 39 armored vehicles, new wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, and a lot of armed off-road vehicles. This is the mechanized infantry regiment of the 1st Group Army.
The ground where the Rocket Artillery Regiment performs its mission has already left the 1st Group Army's defense area and is in the area where the two armies are about to fight. For safety, a mechanized infantry regiment with very good mobility was dispatched.
These two troops set off at dawn and have traveled more than ten kilometers and are almost entering the predetermined location.
At the front of the convoy, many tanks were clearing the way, and no trace of the German army was seen along the way. However, the soldiers were not careless. They were almost reaching the scheduled location, and finally saw a small group of German soldiers.
This is obviously a German patrol. It is small in size, with less than a hundred people. However, it is either an armored vehicle or an off-road vehicle, and the equipment is good.
There are about seven or eight of these armored vehicles, all of which are half-track armored transport vehicles. There are only two off-road vehicles.
This German team saw a large number of tanks coming. Through the telescope, they could also see a lot of strange-shaped trucks. These trucks were naturally rocket launchers. The Germans had never seen a rocket launcher, so they naturally felt very strange. strangeness.
A German officer took a hurried look with his binoculars and thought to himself, could it be that the Chinese [***] team has started a ground attack? With so many tanks, it must be the Chinese [***] team that has started an attack.
This German officer, while reporting to his headquarters, ordered his troops to retreat quickly. He was joking, the Chinese tank in the distance was at least several times his own, and it was different from thisThe battle between the Chinese and [***] teams was completely seeking death.
The soldiers at the front of the team couldn't help laughing when they saw the German troops fleeing in the distance. Unexpectedly, the German troops ran away when they saw them.
However, several commanders of the mechanized infantry regiment, seeing this German unit, thought to themselves that this area is indeed not safe. There is actually a German mechanized patrol team. If they did not come with the rocket launcher regiment, the rocket launchers alone would Regiment, I'm afraid these German patrol teams will not run so fast.
¡°Maybe, many German mechanized patrol teams will come from all directions to surround and annihilate the rocket launcher regiment. Thinking of this, these commanders secretly sweated in their hearts. It seems that the form is far from being as simple as it seems on the surface.
As the German patrol team ran into the distance and gradually disappeared from everyone's sight, many commanders knew that their positions must have been exposed.
"Comrades, speed up and reach the scheduled location immediately."
The colonel leader of the rocket artillery regiment did not dare to be careless. He immediately ordered his soldiers to speed up and launch rockets at the predetermined location.
Now, we have to compete with the German army for time, complete the mission before the large German army arrives, and then leave, leaving here and returning to the control area of ????the 1st Group Army.
Fortunately, we are very close to the scheduled location. A few minutes later, dozens of rocket launchers from the rocket launcher regiment arrived at the scheduled location. These rocket launchers stopped one after another, and the soldiers began to prepare for launch in an orderly manner.
This launch site is about seven or eight kilometers away from the German heavy artillery group position, and even closer to the German defense area, maybe only five or six kilometers.
The soldiers of the rocket launcher regiment are busy, while the first mechanized infantry regiment responsible for security is on the outside, not far from the rocket launcher regiment, and everyone is on guard at the perimeter.
Everyone is worried that the German army already knows that it has reached this area. Maybe, the German army will come over soon. Many soldiers of the mechanized infantry regiment even hold up their binoculars and look into the distance, looking at the direction in which the German army may come.
After just a few minutes, the soldiers discovered something unusual and the German army arrived. At this time, the soldiers of the rocket launcher regiment were ready to calibrate the launch parameters again.
A large-scale German mechanized force appeared in the eyes of the soldiers. In the distance, there were at least hundreds of half-track armored vehicles, as well as a small number of off-road vehicles and tanks.
Yes, they are tanks, definitely not armored vehicles. However, the number of these tanks is not large, maybe less than ten, and the model is not the Panzer IV. It seems to be some older models, and the barrel caliber is much smaller than the Panzer IV. .
The German tanks are mainly Panzer III and Panzer IV tanks, as well as the latest Tiger tanks. In addition, there are some old tanks from the early World War II. However, in the North African battlefield, the soldiers have not encountered Tiger tanks. The soldiers have encountered The most advanced German tank that arrived was the Panzer IV.
The soldiers already know the performance of the No. 4 tank. It is a little worse than their own Type 39 tanks. The German troops coming from a distance are equipped with a small number of tanks. The performance should not be as good as that of the No. 4 tank, but for everyone It is also a big threat. If there is a chance, the soldiers will definitely give priority to solving these German tanks.
In addition to these tanks, the most popular ones are naturally the German half-track tanks. This kind of tank is not familiar to the soldiers. Many soldiers thought in their hearts, I wonder what the name of these half-track tanks can be.
In fact, the German half-track combat vehicle, also called a half-track armored transport vehicle, was developed by the German Borgward Company and is mainly used to transport personnel. It began serving in the German army as early as 1939.
The German army has a huge number of this kind of armored transport vehicles, including various variants. Currently, a total of 16,000 vehicles have been produced and equipped.
The vehicle has a total combat weight of 8.5t and is classified as a medium-sized half-track armored transport vehicle. The car is equipped with 2 crew members, namely the driver and the commander, and can also accommodate 10 passengers.
The front half of the vehicle is wheeled and the rear is tracked. There are 6 road wheels on each side of the car body. The driving wheel is in the front and the idler wheel is in the rear. The road wheels are staggered. The armor thickness is 7mm~12mm, which can protect against bullets and shell fragments. However, the top of the car body is also open. People inside are vulnerable to bullets.
The main weapons are two 7.92mm machine guns. The maximum road travel is 320km, the maximum off-road travel is 180km, the vertical wall height is 0.3m, the maximum climbing angle is 24 degrees, the trench width is 2m, and the wading depth is 0.5m.
It can be seen from the data that the performance of the Type 39 armored personnel carrier equipped by the Chinese [***] team is slightly worse than that of the wheeled combat vehicle equipped by the Chinese [***] team in the past two years. At least one level worse.
However, this German army is equipped with a lot of such armored transport vehicles, at least more than a hundred. At present, it is gaining momentum.It was fierce, raising dust all over the sky, and was approaching the mechanized infantry regiment.
When the mechanized infantry regiment saw the German troops approaching, everyone rushed forward without fear. The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and the war was about to break out.
As for the soldiers of the Rocket Artillery Regiment, seeing so many German troops approaching, they all made preparations more quickly. Everyone wanted to launch rockets as soon as possible. Now, a German mechanized unit came over. Who can guarantee whether it will happen later? Where is a German tank unit coming over?
