Imperial Overlord

"My head of state! The artillery bombardment is about to start! Your position is ready." While Li Le, the fake head of state, smiled and waved and enjoyed the cheers of the soldiers, an officer walked up to the head of state and stood at attention and saluted to report.

The Führer was watching the soldiers of Army Group D fight, not to give a speech to these soldiers. So the main event is the offensive operation, and it is ready.

In order to let the head of state feel the offensive power of Army Group D, Marshal Bock mobilized the artillery of the two corps and strengthened the infantry division responsible for the attack in the frontal position.

You know, those are two whole artillery regiments directly under the military headquarters, two artillery regiments equipped with 150mm caliber heavy artillery!

Because it is not a fast-moving unit, most of the artillery of Army Group D are towed. These artillery can not keep up with the advancing speed of Army Group B, so they are generally thrown to the two Army Groups with slower action speed and D Army Group.

Even so, these old-fashioned 150mm caliber heavy artillery, which are slightly behind in performance, are no less powerful than the new German self-propelled artillery.

After they have set up their positions, their power is quite amazing - the most important point is that the number of artillery pieces of the German army now exceeds that of the Soviet army.

Tens of thousands of artillery pieces were abandoned in the German-occupied areas when the Soviet army was defeated, and some destroyed Soviet small and medium-caliber artillery pieces can still be found in many places.

Those 130mm cannons, paralyzed by the side of the road, lay like garbage, and no one cares at all.

A large number of Soviet artillery pieces were captured by the Germans and equipped with the Romanian, Lithuania and other minion ** teams. With powerful shipping, these artillery pieces were also sent to North Africa and the Middle East for sale.

The local Saudi nobles in the Middle East need a lot of arms. They use the oil exploration rights to buy weapons and ammunition, and compete for the illusory throne that they do not recognize each other.

The Third Reich was pleased with this and chose the king of Saudi Arabia as its spokesman. The Middle East Corps of the Axis Powers has also become the biggest force supporting Saudi Arabia.

"I will be on the ground, watching you attack the enemy! Fight heroically! Soldiers!" Li Le finished his speech and finally said to the soldiers in front of him.

"Victory! Führer!" All the soldiers responded to the Führer's expectations, and everyone shouted with all their strength, as if to vent their excitement.

On the opposite Soviet position, these crazy shouts were even heard. A Soviet soldier stuck his head out, glanced at it, and shrank back.

"Comrade commander, the people over there are crazy? What are they shouting?" The young Soviet soldier retracted his head and asked the officer beside him.

The Soviet company commander apparently heard those frantic shouts as well. He frowned and muttered: "It looks like some big man is inspecting their positions."

"Big man? Then let's contact the artillery and bomb that place?" The young Soviet soldier felt that he had made a contribution and suggested excitedly.

"I don't think the Germans on the other side are crazy, but you are crazy." Hearing the advice of the young soldiers under him, the old Soviet company commander sneered and sneered.

He patted the steel helmet on the young man's head with his hand, and continued disdainfully: "Just those artillerymen behind us? If they fire one shot, the Germans can shoot back 10 or even 100 shots!"

In the past few days, the Soviet artillery has fired a pitiful few times. Compared with the fire support of the Germans on the opposite side, their counterattacks are not on the same level at all.

The Germans' artillery shells fell blinding the sky, and there were even terrifying tactics such as rockets to wash the ground. But the artillery on the Soviet side had to fight back cautiously because of the limited ammunition.

Compared with the roar of the German artillery operating the artillery, the Soviet artillery can completely describe the state of their firing with groans.

Over time, the Soviet front-line soldiers did not bother to call their own artillery support, because such support often did not work.

Sometimes, not only does it fail to achieve its due suppressive effect, but it invites a larger-scale German artillery attack, which is simply not worth the loss.

So the Soviet infantry in Crimea made a funny joke: they once called the artillery behind them and asked them to stop firing to avoid retaliation from the German artillery.

Soon the Soviet infantry position was overrun by German artillery shells. Since the Soviet soldiers retreated here, they have never seen such a concentrated large-caliber artillery suppressing fire.

The dense shells fell, forming a burning and explosive area near the Soviet position. The Soviet troops inside could only huddle in the trenches in despair, waiting for this round of artillery fire to pass.

The explosion of the shells overturned the soil into the sky, leaving huge craters on the ground. From time to time, Soviet positions were destroyed by shells, and the defenders inside also went to the west.

The head of state Li Le stood in a trench that was almost two meters deep, with his eyes attached to the eyepieces of the artillery mirror, watching the battle in the distance.

In his eyepiece, the Soviet positions were falling apart, and countless shells were twisting and destroying everything there.

"How long does this kind of shelling usually last?" He removed his eyes from the goggles, the Führer turned his head and asked the officer who was accompanying him.

"My head of state! Under normal circumstances, an artillery bombardment of this scale will last for more than ten minutes and consume about 10 ammunition bases." The artillery staff officer who was asked by the head of state was flattered and quickly replied.

"10 bases... it's really spectacular!" Li Le sighed with emotion after hearing the answer.

This is really the kind of scene where all the guns are fired when the film is made in later generations~www.wuxiaspot.com~. The impact of this destruction can really make every man crazy.

"After a few minutes, the shelling will stop! Dive bombers continue to hover in the sky, destroying the enemy's remaining concealed fire points for the infantry." The Air Force Liaison Officer continued to introduce the subsequent combat procedures.

The standard process in front of us is actually an effective attack method summed up by the German army countless times. In this way, the attack will have the lowest degree of loss.

The artillery opened the way, then the bombardment of the planes, followed by the armored troops covering the advance of the infantry. This set of coordinated combat mode of step and tank is also a standard tactic proposed by Li Le at the meeting and improved by the German generals.

"Very good!" Li Le nodded, and then put his eyes on the eyepiece again. From the lens, he could see the thick black smoke on the Soviet positions, which had covered the sky.
