Chapter 233: The king's secret weapon

When General McCarthy entered the house, the first thing he looked at was the statistics report on the supply of troops. He knew that these troops that seemed to have great potential in number were actually just empty shelves after another. They do not have enough ammunition and weapons, and many times they have not received timely supplies. Being able to persist until this moment is the result of the sacrifice of grassroots soldiers for the country.
So he looked at Carl, pointed to the defensive positions that had been covered by Falkenridge’s army fire, and asked them: "Look! Look there! The people standing there are real The fighters who love this country! They are using their lives against the steel of the Falkenrich! What do you want them to use to hold their positions? Do you throw stones against the steam chariot?"
Even though Falkenrich bought the second-class steam chariots that the Haval Empire no longer needed, the throwing stones obviously couldn't destroy these steel monsters, unless they were thrown by the cyclops. And there happens to be no cyclops in the Duchy of Stasi.
Even now that Stasi’s heavy weapons are aimed at steam tanks to fire normally, they cannot penetrate the armor of these tanks in most cases.
On the one hand, when Stasi was rushing to produce large-caliber artillery, the one-sided pursuit of production capacity ultimately affected the attack performance of this artillery. On the other hand, this artillery was not designed to destroy. The tank was developed with a single goal.
Simply put, this Stasi self-propelled artillery was actually designed as a comprehensive infantry support weapon when it was developed.
What is a multifunctional platform? It is to try to make this kind of artillery be able to carry out curved support shooting, but also has a certain ability to destroy armor at the same time.
The original design idea was to use one type of artillery to do the work of two or even three types of artillery, and then greatly simplify the equipment pressure in logistics and production.
It is a pity that Grand Duke Jon was too anxious. He launched the war without waiting for his subordinates to be fully prepared. As a result, the subsequent defeat in the war delayed the speed of research and development, and finally led to this powerful artillery. All problems and conflicts have not been resolved.
Moreover, with the help of the Solar Society, Falkenrich has made rapid technological development, and the terrible breakthrough in high-tech materials far exceeds that of Stasi, who has no time for research.
In the year that the war just started, Fakenridge’s material crafting team, under the leadership of the orc scholar Apstein, published a paper on strengthening steel materials. Two years later, Fakenridge was no longer satisfied with pure Using the steam chariot provided by Haval, the world’s leading armored steel material technology was widely used to transform and even produce steam chariots.
Afterwards, Falkenridge developed a cloth material through a series of research and development to cover the outer armor of the tank to enhance its anti-strike ability.
It's just that due to time and resources, this material hasn't been popularized yet, and only some troops are testing it.
I have to say that war is indeed a great weapon to promote the development of weapons...
In short, the huge gap between the increase and decrease between one's own artillery and the enemy's armor has become particularly obvious.
The Stasi soldiers really didn't have the courage to use stones as weapons to fight the Falkenridge chariot, at least in this battle, they did not have the courage in this regard.
Before McCarthy and Carl could agree on whether the front line should retreat or not, the Stasi's army had already been occupied by most of the Falkenridge army.
The Falkenrich soldiers easily surpassed the smashed obstacle of the Stasi's army and jumped into the Stasi's position. With the weapons in their hands, they desperately attacked the Stasi army, which was about to collapse, and directly knocked the morale of this army to zero.
"The Stasi is dead! Keep attacking!"
An officer who had just rushed out from behind the chariot brandished his saber and loudly encouraged the soldiers around him. Beside him, Falkenrich soldiers one after another, carrying their own weapons, were crossing in front of him, towards the other end of the position, dashing at their fastest speed.
On the other hand, the tracks of a Falkenridge steam chariot rolled slowly, picking up dirt and allowing the dirt to fall down at some point. The huge road wheels made the heads of nearby Falkenrich soldiers seem small. The metal track rubbed over the helmet, pressing the body of the Stasi soldier across its path into the mud.
With the operation of the magic crystal, the semi-automatic heading machine gun in front of the car body kept spitting out tongues of fire. A large number of tracer shells were densely woven into a fire net directly in front of the cannon. Several Stasi soldiers were enveloped by this fire net. Get up, and then become a corpse spread out on the way back.
For the Stasi defenders who lacked heavy weapons, this steam chariot was simply a giant steel beast that could not be destroyed in front of them. In the frontal position, they relied on countless nights of crazy counterattacks, and countless times with the belief that they would die and rush to the chariot of the Falkenridge army to stop these monsters from advancing.
Sometimes in order to destroy a Falkenridge steam chariot, an entire squadron of Stasi soldiers would be killed on the defensive line, and more or even the entire group would be defeated.
After a long period of cooperation, the Falkenrich army has formed a proficient cooperative combat mode. It is not an easy task for the Stasi's army to take advantage of this mode.
"For Grand Duke Jon!"
Suddenly, not far from the side of a steam chariot in Falkenridge, a young Stasi soldier leaped from the ground. Holding a high-explosive bomb, he rushed towards the Falkenrich chariot, which was still advancing, shouting slogans. This is a trick often used by the Stasi army infantry now. Approaching from the side is relatively safer.
Of course, no matter how safe you are, you will never escape death in the end.
And as more and more people die in this way, the number of suicide attacks has gradually decreased-the enthusiasm that relies on brainwashing cannot last, at least when the situation is already very unstable.
"boom!"
A goblin musketeer who was not far behind the Falkenridge steam chariot held the assault rifle in his hand and greeted the Stasi soldier who was trying to die with the enemy with a deadly bullet. The bullet penetrated the opponent's thin body, directly taking a life.
This kind of coordinated combat that spread from the four empires, of course, is not only a tank covering the infantry to carry out assaults on the enemy's position, the tank also needs to be protected by the infantry behind to be able to be the enemy in all directions. In case, survive to implement a breakthrough.
This is a technique and tactics worthy of serious study and study, not just a group of soldiers following the chariot.
When the Stasi soldier holding the bomb fell to the ground unwillingly, the bomb on his body exploded at the same time. A loud bang made the Stasi soldier nothing left, and the distance Falkenridge’s steam chariot was still slowly advancing his low but sturdy body.
At this point in the war, there were very few Stasis left, whether it was an earth travel dragon or a chariot, and there was really not much left to stop it.
In other words, the occupation of Stasi's position was also expected.
Finally, several Falkenridge soldiers waved a dilapidated Falkenridge flag and successfully inserted it to the highest point of Stasi's position, and the imposing steam chariot found it for themselves A more suitable bunker.
After confirming that there were no enemies around, the occupants of the car also walked down and cheered with their comrades.
"Sir! We have captured the enemy's first defensive position, and we are expanding the results to the two wings. The enemy's resistance is much weaker than the day before yesterday. I think they should lack weapons and supplies."
A Falkenridge squadron leader stood in front of a table in the division headquarters, pointed to a partial map filled with contour lines, and reported the results of this attack to his boss: We only lost more than fifty soldiers when the steam chariot came to cover."
The captain nodded his head, be regarded as approving his report.
There are three infantry squadrons in his squadron, and he used two squadrons to attack this time ~ EbookFREE.me ~ about a thousand people participated in the attack. As a result, he only killed more than 50 soldiers when he took the enemy's position. This result has made him very satisfied.
What worries him is that the Stasi defenders have always been known for their madness and bravery. These soldiers are good at counterattacking immediately after losing their positions, using the lives of countless soldiers to regain the fallen positions.
So he quickly issued an order to allow his troops to minimize their losses in the possible counterattack: "Let the troops stop advancing and consolidate their defensive positions. The Stasi may counterattack, and we must defend as much as possible. position."
"Good news, sir!"
Suddenly, a voice outside the door interrupted his thoughts-a messenger came in, holding a piece of paper in his hand, and joyfully announced, "Long live your majesty! The latest newsletter, your majesty has dispatched a secret weapon, we The army will have at most another three days before they can directly knock on the door of Grand Duke Jon’s office!"
The captain couldn't help but feel shocked, if this is really the case...
In other words, this war that has spanned several years is finally coming to an end!
