Man in World War II: The Fall of an Empire!

Chapter 76 Barbarossa, Battle of Minsk
William and his people outside Minsk have also arrived here.

What he saw was two beaten infantry divisions retreating in embarrassment and taking a rest.

Learned the situation from their mouths.

The Soviet army dispatched a large number of heavy tanks, pushing down the German defense line like bulldozers.

At this time when there is no Panzerfaust rocket launcher, facing tanks except for some anti-tank rifles or anti-tank guns.

But where can an ordinary infantry company get high-end goods? Even the anti-tank guns assigned to regiment-level units, most of them are still just a stepping stone.

There was no time to upgrade, and the 37mm anti-tank gun was just fine against T28, T26, BT7 and other tanks.

But now the Soviet Union is in the era of heavy tanks, even the most rubbish KV-1 heavy tank.

That's not something the 37mm anti-tank gun can challenge.

Therefore, the anti-tank force is too weak, unless you tie up explosive packages and die together.

Germany does not yet have such a style to promote, so don’t even think about it.

One KV-1 heavy tank can push the entire company's defense line flat.

With dozens of Soviet troops behind them, they can do it in a big way.

This is the arrogance of having a heavy tank.

On the other hand, the German army could not do anything to the other side.

You don't even know where the tanks are hidden in the city.

It is impossible to blow up a huge city inch by inch!
Air support units are also limited.

The J1 Velociraptor fighter jets did not participate in the mission of bombing cities at all.

Unless the boss speaks, the rest of the time he just strives for air supremacy.

The intelligence coming from the Soviet Union also caused the United States and the United Kingdom to step up their research and development of jet fighters.

I believe that by the time of the Normandy landings, there would be countless jet fighters in the sky.

Raytheon Group may be a little ahead in technology, but it is impossible to achieve a comprehensive technological breakthrough.

In fact, Germany's defeat was doomed from the beginning of the war.

The Air Force has idiots like Goering and a master of micro-management with Mustache who can't do anything without losing.

There is also the fact that the intelligence department relies on making up stories to deceive the boss in front of them.

How can we win in such a state, and we still want to conquer the whole world.

I was thankful to God for being able to save my life.

After the German army surrounded Minsk, they were not in a hurry to attack.

If the opponent's tanks do not leave the city, they will be attacked by Stuka dive bombers.

But there is no way to move forward unless we win here.

This kind of battle will only become more difficult to fight, even though the German army dispatched 550 million people.

However, attacking three routes separately, facing the vast Soviet Union is still a bit difficult.

The Soviet Union directly withdrew more than one million troops from the more than two million Far East Army deployed in the Far East.

These are all beings who have been crawling around in the world of ice and snow all year round.

Even the cold winter cannot stop them, because Siberia has extremely cold weather all year round.

Therefore, the extremely cold weather in Eastern Europe is still affordable for them.

Most Soviet people in Eastern Europe could not bear the severe cold, let alone the German soldiers.

All original plans were disrupted.

It was supposed to break through Minsk quickly and head straight for Smolensk.

As a result, Minsk can only be besieged now, even if tank troops are sent into the city to fight fiercely.

Most of the time it was the German armor that lost.

It's not that the soldiers are ineffective, but neither are the tanks.

It's pretty good to be able to penetrate the opponent's side with the 50mm gun of the Panzer III tank.

But if the opponent casually shoots him, he will die on the spot.

This is the gap. The penetrating power of the short-barreled artillery of the No. [-] tank against the opponent is like scratching an itch.

You can't push an 88mm anti-aircraft gun into the city, otherwise it will be destroyed by the opponent's artillery.In the end, the German army shipped 5 E[-] light tanks produced by Raytheon Group and arrived in Minsk.

With the addition of tanks, things have gradually gotten better.

As long as the opponent is discovered, one shot can basically kill it.

At close range, no tank can withstand the blow of the 75mm L48 gun.

Of course, if you miss the target, you're dead.

Just like the KV-2 heavy tank, one shot missed the vital point.

Then its 152mm cannon will directly kill you.

Even if it explodes on the side, it can tear open the armor of the E5 tank.

If it hits, it can explode into pieces of broken metal instantly.

But this is much better than No. [-] and No. [-].

With the heroic efforts of the E5 tanks, the German army occupied a corner of Minsk.

This made William very helpless and could only take the lead in leading his troops to advance.

The killing weapon of Raytheon Group’s new tank is simple, solid and easy to use.

RPG rocket launcher, a rocket launcher specially used for breaking armor.

Although it is not as powerful as RPG7, it can still be used against current tanks.

Each squad carries an RPG rocket launcher specifically for use against tanks.

Even if the frontal armor cannot be penetrated, its tracks must be destroyed or the sides must be hit.

It's just that infantry will always suffer the most when dealing with tanks.

But when faced with such a situation, someone has to do it.

On a seemingly calm street, German soldiers nervously held their weapons and were ready to fight.

There were sounds of shelling and machine guns in the distance, but the street was very quiet.

This shows that both sides are holding their breath and ready to take action at any time.

"It's so quiet out front, so quiet! You don't have to think about it to know there's an ambush on this street!"

The entire street is full of roadblocks, and some of the houses on both sides show signs of shelling and air raids.

But there were no human traces, so the Germans did not act rashly.

"Investigation Squadron [-], follow me!"

Rhine pulled the bolt of his gun and was ready to fire at any time, calling the soldiers of the reconnaissance squad to start moving forward.

“It’s too risky in Rhein”

Ram grabbed Rhine and shouted.

"Don't worry Ram, I will come back alive!"

After speaking, Rhine continued to move forward and crossed the obstacle.

The doors and windows of many houses on both sides were blocked, making it impossible to get in.

Suddenly, Rhine's hairs stood up and a dangerous aura hit him.

He understood why the doors and windows below were blocked. It was because the Soviet army had penetrated the upper floors.

In this way, they can concentrate their firepower and deploy manpower as quickly as possible.

After thinking of this, Rhine shouted, "Retreat! Retreat quickly!"

After the words fell, intensive firepower from the second and third floors on both sides swept down.

The intensive firepower directly caused the death of almost all the first reconnaissance team.

Rhine himself was suppressed by a soldier beside him, but he was shot several times and fell to the ground.

"Damn bastard! Fire, fire!"

Ram roared with anger, and all the machine guns, submachine guns, and semi-automatic rifles began to fire on both sides of the house.

The Soviet army fled directly from here to the other floors. Although a few unlucky ones were hit, most of them had already escaped.

　Please book in full, please give me tickets, thank you very much.
