Chapter 1581

The roar of artillery cut through the tranquility of the morning, and rain-like shells roared from several kilometers or even ten kilometers away. The flames of the long-range artillery and the sunrise set against each other, making people feel a different kind of magnificence. The flame storm mixed with shrapnel swept the entire German forward position.

The veterans of the Western Front who have been on the battlefield are quietly hiding in the anti-cannon hole. They have experienced this situation many times. You can say that their nerves are thick enough, or they are numb. Groups of soldiers sat together, checking their weapons while listening to the gunfire outside. Experienced soldiers can tell whether the opposing firepower suppression is continuing or going away through the sound of the artillery. If the French's shelling looks backwards, it means that the opposing tank and infantry are about to get on.

Although the French have many long-range cannons, the number of real large-caliber heavy artillery, such as the 203MM-class howitzer, is very small. This is because these artillery are scarce and the transportation is troublesome. On the other hand, a considerable part of the heavy artillery is British. Provided, the shells were also moved directly from the battleship. However, the 8-inch guns in the British fleet are not standard equipment, and the 9.2-inch naval guns are a lot, but this thing is too heavy... Therefore, unless it is directly hit by a cannon, it is safer in the reinforced anti-gun tunnel.

"Enter the position!" When the artillery fire went away, a group of German soldiers began to rush out of the bunker and move along the trenches towards the front line defensive positions. At the same time, the French elite assault team almost rushed up with the rhythm of cannonballs! When the gun smoke gradually dissipated, the distance between the infantry between the two sides was only about 300 to 500 meters. In an instant, the sound of machine guns and rifles resounded throughout the battlefield. On the battlefield far from the western front, German and French soldiers conducted a battle. Battle of the Western Front Mode!

"Damn it! I knew this **** would definitely fall out of the chain!" A French soldier evacuated back while cursing. The Shaosha machine gun in his hand had a problem again. It might be a bullet stuck or it might be a shot. There is a small problem with the device, but no matter what, this machine gun is temporarily useless. The performance problem of the Shaosha machine gun has been plagued by the French army, so that when the French army trains machine gunners, it must first learn how to repair the gun instead of shooting. ! However, the French also have a solution, which is to equip the attacking troops with more Shaosha machine guns... The French can be equipped with two machine guns or even three machine guns in a 14-person assault team!

Under the cover of artillery fire, when the French assault squad advanced to a position 300 to 500 meters away from the Germans, the absolute number of killer machine guns can also be shot against the German MG series. Both sides are equipped with grenadiers and For mortars, at this distance, the excellent firepower of the MG series machine guns cannot be fully utilized. In order to prevent them from being taken care of by the opponent, the Germans always change positions frequently. Generally, if a 150-round bullet belt is lighted up, it must be replaced. Place, otherwise, God knows where a grenade will come from!

Relying on first-hand advantage, a team of French soldiers gradually crossed the outer minefields and barbed wire. And proceeded to the outermost trench, but when it rushed to a distance of less than 100 meters from the trench, the German "bullet sprayer" once again went off! At a distance of 50 to 100 meters, a few soldiers armed with submachine guns can fire the firepower of two machine guns. The MP09 series submachine guns with a huge 50-round drum have become a weapon to disintegrate the attack of French soldiers. The burst shooting formed an insurmountable net of fire within a distance of 100 meters, ploughing a bunch of flesh and blood alleys among the crowds of French, and the entire attack formation was sunken.

"Machine gunner! Indirect shooting!" A French non-commissioned officer commanded a Haggis machine gun and began to project from the side. The machine gunner adjusted the elevation angle slightly, and then locked the German army in front of the French army through the scope. With a series of bullets, the French heavy machine gun unit located slightly behind began to show off. The bullets shot from the two wings crossed the front wall. Shoot your opponent quickly!

However, when the French machine gunner had just polished a bullet belt, and the next bomber had not had time to connect another belt, a dazzling fire snake fell from the sky, and the powerful bullet directly hit the upper body of a soldier next to him. Cut directly, and the internal organs and blood sprayed on the body of the machine gunner! The German 12.7MM machine gun started shooting at a distance of 800 meters, which was beyond the shooting range of the grenadier. When the French's heavy machine guns started shooting, it also meant that they were not far away from death. Two 12.7MM machine guns only took more than ten seconds to cover a heavy machine gun position. After a shower of bullets, only the scattered machine gun parts and blood and corpses were left in this position.

Crowds of soldiers fell between the trenches and the barbed wire. The French launched attacks in 7 places at the same time. Four of them failed to break through the German's first line of defense. The other three succeeded in breaking into a wedge. Then, the French artillery began to isolate this position and at the same time changed Many French troops poured in from this breakthrough and prepared to expand the results. In the attack on the first morning, the two sides paid a lot of manpower and ammunition, but they only drew a tie.

"Where is the French tank?" Von Seckert looked at the situation of the enemy and us on the sand table. He couldn't help but fell into thought~lightnovelpub.net~ The French gathered no less than two armored divisions this time, but Did not enter the battlefield, this can not help but make Lieutenant Seckett feel uneasy.

At the same time, in places that von Seckert can’t see, the two most elite French armored forces, after piercing the Turkish forces on the side, are advancing day and night towards the east of Boussard. No plan to use precious armored forces and German defense lines and war defense artillery to die. What he chose was to cut off the German supply line first, and then leave some troops to slowly eat the opponents, and the main force continued to move forward! Xiafei intends to celebrate their victory in Constantinople a month later!

Two torrents of steel were advancing quickly on both sides of the German circular defensive positions, and Xiafei used all the trucks he could find to support the two armored divisions. At the same time, in order to closely follow the deficiencies of the infantry, he also recruited a large number of cavalry to accompany the advance.

In the absence of any resistance, Chaffee’s armored forces advanced at a speed of 35 to 40 kilometers per day, almost setting a record for the speed of the French army. However, the German defense line around Bursa was deep enough to just go around. It took 3 days to pass von Seckert’s defense zone and attack eastward!
