My Third Empire

Biquge www.readwn.com, update my latest chapter of the third empire as soon as possible!

What really caused trouble for German soldiers was the Soviet Union's large-scale and large-caliber artillery. Stalin personally likes weapons like cannons, as if Akado prefers tanks. He personally questioned and ordered the production of no fewer than 20 types of cannons, including even an amazing super train gun.

Soviet spies stole a valuable piece of intelligence from the factory safe in Czechoslovakia in 1935. This information shows that Germany is about to produce a huge artillery carrying train at its factory in Czechoslovakia. The huge train carriage is about the size of a pair of shoes under the body of the giant gun to be built.

Then the Soviet Union used all the power they could find and began to look for all the drawings of this secret German weapon. In the end, they paid no attention to them. They bought a technical engineer at the Krupp factory and got all the parameters of the cannon There are details-excellent-excellent-small-say-more-new-most-fast. I even bought a drawing and a complete "super cannon drawing".

Stalin never looked away after seeing the drawing. He pointed at the drawing and exclaimed to his secretary: "This is the true **** of war!" So the great Soviet leader Comrade Stalin ordered the production of the Soviet Union His own super weapon, a super train gun named "big pipe", was secretly developed and produced in the Soviet Union. Naming this super cannon with your favorite pipe also reflects Stalin's love for this giant cannon from the side.

The caliber of the German train guns reached an astonishing 800 mm, and the shells were about the size of a car. A single shell can exceed one ton and can fly tens of kilometers away, exploding a reinforced concrete defensive fortress the size of a football field into ruins.

But something that made Stalin depressed was followed. The Soviet factory could not complete the production of this artillery: Whether it was steelmaking level or precision machining, several Soviet factories that were formed with the assistance of Germany did not have enough strength to come Complete the manufacture of this super artillery.

It is important to know that not everyone has the ability to produce super-caliber artillery. The Soviet Union had not produced many large-caliber artillery pieces before, and the technology was also very immature, so the entire project ended up in a very awkward suspension phase. As the Soviet-German war broke out, the project was recalled by Stalin. He asked the responsible factory to produce Soviet super weapons in front of the Germans.

Don't say no to him! The Soviets must surpass their opponents! This is what Stalin tried to prove, and it was also the goal he worked hard for. He needed a victory and a transcendence to add a perfect footnote to his greatness. Driven by this ideology, this vigorous cannon-making movement has just begun.

It cannot be said that this movement is wrong, because in this huge plan, there are many types of artillery that have proved to be very good. For example, a 122 mm caliber artillery that stunned Japanese mountain artillery at Nomonkan; an 85 mm caliber antiaircraft gun with anti-aircraft weapons; and various small caliber mortars now regarded as artifacts by the Soviet Red Army. Of course, we cannot simply say that this cannon-making movement is correct, because after all, there is this super cannon which is caused by wishful thinking.

When the layman intervenes too much in the layman's field, there are a lot of unbelievable jokes. It is not how foolish the parties are, but a political show that was born under absolute power: Some people once said to Hitler that the train cannon can It was used to fight tanks, and was eventually scolded by the then director of the armored soldier Guderian. Imagine Hitler who once personally supported the development of the German armored forces. He would believe that a cannon with a caliber of close to 300 mm can hit the tank. He knew that it was not that Hitler became stupid, but that the people who sold him tanks or cannons were not suitable. His appetite.

So when Ukrainian locals handed over Kiev to the Germans peacefully, engineers from Germany saw a huge Soviet-made super cannon. This cannon has a caliber of 810 mm (Stalin insists that the caliber of the Soviet artillery is larger than the caliber of the German super cannon ...). It needs 45 carriages to transport parts and bear the recoil weight. This cannon cannot pass any known Soviet The bridges used or built, of course, only the rails laid by Germany can barely make these 45 trains run.

There are a whole regiment of people taking care of this cannon, including an air defense battalion and a security battalion, and an engineering battalion responsible for loading and unloading this super cannon. Of course, this cannon was expected to be transported from Kiev to the Sud front line in 3 months, and then installed for another month. If the battle is not finished at this time, it has completed the preparation for shooting.

It ’s ridiculous that this huge guy did n’t have shells. The Soviet artillery shell production factory did n’t have such a huge production workshop. Finally, this cannon had a strictly confidential internal instruction manual for the Kiev factory. Only about 5 guns can be fired, and there is a risk of explosion or disintegration. Can you imagine a super weapon that cost a lot of money to build, and can only shoot such a poor data of 5 cannons?

This thing, which has cost the hard work of countless Soviets, is now waiting for the Germans to deal with it in Kiev. Many generals feel that they can use this thing to attack the Sevastopol fortress in the Soviet Union, but obviously it is not an easy task to get this thing there. This bad debt is not cost-effective, but it also needs to be analyzed and inferred.

In the original time and space, the Sevastopol Fortress was built by the efforts of several generations of Tsarist Russia and the Soviet Union, and it became a solid fortress group. There are heavy armored forts, dense bunkers, and underground fortifications in all directions. The Germans tried their best to capture it.

But at this moment the fortress group in the Sevastopol region is not of such a scale at all, thanks to Germany ’s 10-year fatigue policy against the Soviet Union. The steel plates and armor that were originally used to build the fortress are mostly used to lay the Soviet railway that has become a thing in Germany. The heavy armor used by the fortresses is now installed on Soviet battleships, so the entire Sevastopol area is still a tsarist Russian-era fortification system, and it is not worth developing a huge 800 mm caliber for this place. Cannon "Gustav".

Under the instruction of Akado, the entire German cannon construction plan was a scam. Germany itself had not even produced a cannon with a caliber of more than 300 mm, and several large-caliber train guns were seized by the French team. Masterpiece.

Of course, Germany's abandonment of train guns and the advantages of large-caliber guns are the huge increase in the number of German 150-mm caliber artillery, 105-mm caliber artillery, and 75-mm caliber field artillery. Although the Germans lost a lot in unit caliber, the Germans still maintained a fairly strong firepower density in terms of the number of artillery.

Later, the British 140 mm caliber artillery was added, France and Belgium artillery, the number of German medium caliber artillery can fully compete with the artillery power of the Soviet Union, and even have a certain advantage on the small caliber field artillery.

At the cost of sacrificing some of the artillery's advantage, the German armored force is larger and more qualitative than the Nazi armored force in another space-time. At this stage, the German armored forces are based on advanced leopard tanks, with more and more tiger tanks as the core, and the performance completely surpasses the No. 3 tank No. 4 tank in the hands of the Nazis.

At the same time, a total of 8,900 Leopard tanks were produced in Germany at this moment, including the number of losses and repairs. The German army had more than 6,000 Leopard tanks on the front line. The number of this type of tank has exceeded the Nazi armored forces during the same period The total number of tanks. If you count more than 400 No. 3 tanks and more than 1,700 Tiger tanks still in use, the total number of tanks in the front line of the German armored forces is about 8,000. This number only counts tanks, excluding other armored combat vehicles.

Various types of tanks of such a large scale are scattered in the country, North Africa, the United Kingdom, the Sude Front, etc., combined with the No. 3 assault gun, the No. 2 modified self-anti-tank gun, and the Leopard tank destroyer, forming the first There are 29 armored divisions out of a total of 13 armored forces in the Three Empires, as well as 51 additional infantry artillery battalions.

This data also illustrates the problem of the serious shortage of the German armored forces from another aspect. The full armored division of the German army should have about 360 tanks, but the actual situation is that the current 29 armored divisions have an average of only 275 tanks. According to the establishment, 45 infantry armor battalions should be equipped with 45 self-propelled artillery or assault guns. Most of them have only about 30 No. 3 assault guns and other messy weapons.

The shortage of resources made the German team have to grasp what to use. For example, the leopard tank originally planned to assist Romania was eventually replaced by the improved version of the French b1. These tanks are the spoils of the French ** team seized by Germany, and were originally used as equipment for training tanks in the border area between Germany and France. The captured French fighters were also sent to Finland and Turkey as aid, and the French Vichy government now relies on the production of artillery shells and the German 105mm caliber howitzer to repay the war debts compensated to Germany. This is also the German-French economic cooperation a part of.

This is a brutal war, using everything you can find on the battlefield to deprive others of their lives. Although some weapons have proved to be backward or inappropriate, as long as there is no replacement or insufficient replacement, it will continue to be used until it is broken and repaired.
