MTL - Jagged Germany-Chapter 1692 Bloody Battle (ask for a monthly ticket)

"Attack, crush those damned Germans. Let them know that they are not the only ones in the world who have tanks and armored troops. The American armored forces are no less inferior to them!" Major General Smith, the commander of the US 1st Armored Division, roared loudly with.

  The US 1st Armored Division is a heavy armored division with two tank regiments and an armored infantry regiment. Among them, each tank regiment has three tank battalions, the first battalion is a light tank battalion, and the second and third battalions are medium or heavy tank battalions. As the first armored division formed by the U.S. Army, the U.S. 1st Armored Division is the main force among all armored forces. The entire 1st Armored Division is equipped with a total of 158 M5 light tanks, 232 M26 heavy tanks, and a large number of armored vehicles, half-track vehicles and trucks. The entire armored division, a total of 15,000 people.

  Although, it is inferior to an armored division of the German army in terms of strength. However, in terms of the number of tanks equipped, there are not many at all. It's just that, except for the reconnaissance units equipped with light tanks, the German armored units are equipped with heavy tanks and medium tanks. And in terms of performance, it is completely capable of crushing these tanks equipped by the US military.

  However, in front of infantry, the US armored forces are undoubtedly very powerful. In particular, the M26 heavy tank developed by the U.S. military has stepped up. It weighs 42 tons, has thick armor, and a 90mm tank gun. Its performance is very good and it can already rival the German "Black Panther" tank. Of course, in front of the 'Tiger' tank, it was even worse. As for the more powerful "Tiger King" tank, it can easily tear the M26 tank into pieces.

  Hundreds of tanks, followed by a large number of armored vehicles, formed a torrent of steel and rushed directly to the beach.

   "Shit! The Americans have secretly assembled a huge armored force. How can we fight this battle?" Major General Cavin, the commander of the 6th Division of the Marine Corps, became livid when he learned that the US armored force launched an attack.

   "Order our amphibious tanks and prepare for the battle. Anti-tank guns and bazookas are deployed. It's time to go all out." Major General Cavin ordered.

   "Yes, General." The officer immediately turned around and gave the order.

   "Notify the 4th Infantry Division that we are in big * trouble. We need their reinforcements." Major General Cavin then ordered.

  The 4th Infantry Division is the 4th Infantry Division of the German Army that arrived in the south of the Canso Strait via a pontoon bridge. It's just that their heavy equipment hasn't landed yet. This severely limited the combat effectiveness of this infantry division.

   "Boom! Boom!"

  The U.S. armored forces were hit by intensive German artillery fire. The German artillery deployed in the north of the Canso Strait was fully fired. On the one hand, they deployed some artillery fire to suppress the US artillery, and some artillery began to pour firepower on the US armored forces.

  Although, using howitzers to attack armored units, the hit rate is not high. However, these howitzers have a large caliber and are very powerful. Once hit, the US tanks can't resist it. Especially those heavy howitzers with a caliber of 210 mm. If a single shell hits, it is enough to blow up an M26 heavy tank into a pile of parts.

   "Boom!"

   A 150mm shell hits an M26 heavy tank. This 42-ton tank was destroyed on the spot and became a pile of burning scrap iron.

  The shells in the sky kept falling, and tanks were constantly hit.

  A 210mm artillery shell hit the ground, leaving a huge crater. Although there were no tanks that could directly hit the US military, the shock wave generated overturned two M5 light tanks.

   "Bastard, speed up. After rushing into the German position, the German artillery fire will have nothing to do with us!" Major General Smith ordered with a livid face.

  The heavy artillery fire of the German army has already caused them to lose a lot of tanks. Although this may be insignificant compared to the hundreds of tanks owned by the 1st Armored Division. But for the morale of the troops, it will have a great impact. After all, although the US 1st Armored Division is very strong, this is their first time on the battlefield after all.

   "Anti-tank gun, fire!"

  A 75mm anti-tank gun on the German position opened fire.

   "Boom!"

  The armor-piercing projectile slammed into the front armor of an M26 tank. The 120 mm thick frontal armor of the tank was penetrated, and a bullet hole the size of a fist appeared. The tank soldiers inside were even killed by fragments.

   "At 1 o'clock, a German anti-tank gun, destroy them!" An M26 tank of the US military detected the threat and launched an attack decisively.

   "Boom!"

  The artillery shell roared and flew out of the barrel, and hit the German anti-tank gun in the blink of an eye.

  During the explosion, the German anti-tank gun was blown into a pile of parts. Anti-tank artillery was also killed.

  Although the German anti-tank firepower is not weak, in addition to the 75mm anti-tank guns, even the 88mm anti-aircraft guns for air defense have also joined in. These 88mm anti-aircraft guns are very powerful. Even the M26 heavy tank of the US military, once hit, will be easily smashed into a pile of scrap iron.

  However, although the German anti-tank firepower destroyed many American tanks. But compared to the hundreds of tanks invested by the US military, the German anti-tank firepower is still too little. Under the impact of the US armored forces, many anti-tank guns were destroyed.

  In a foxhole, two soldiers are ambushing here. A soldier carries a bazooka on his shoulder.

   "The American tanks are less than fifty meters away from us and can fire."

   "Phew!"

  A rocket flew towards a US tank.

   "Boom!"

  The side of the tank was hit, and the metal jet produced by the explosion of the armor-piercing warhead penetrated the weak armor on the side of the tank. The tank soldiers inside were also killed on the spot. After losing control, the tank stopped directly.

   "Get out of here!"

   After a successful blow, the German soldiers fled the foxhole in a rolling and crawling manner.

  As soon as they left here, the foxhole was hit by machine gun bullets from the US army and dusted up.

"Da da da!"

  A heavy machine gun on the German position was firing, and the dense machine gun bullets hit the American tank, shooting sparks one by one. Occasionally, bullets hit the American infantrymen who were moving behind the tanks, causing them to howl.

   "Boom!"

  An M5 light tank of the US military opened fire, and the shells fired by the 37mm tank gun easily tore the firepower of the heavy machine gun into pieces.

  Under the impact of the US armored forces, the German defense line is in jeopardy. The German army on the south bank of the Canso Strait also fell into a tragic **** battle.
