The range of these vehicle-mounted recoilless rifles is comparable to the 105mm howitzers used by the army. The short-barreled 37 guns used by the Italians on small tanks to support infantry are like small toys in front of them, firing directly from one kilometer away.
The shaped-charge armor-piercing projectiles exploded one after another accurately on the tanks. As the antimony charge in the warhead exploded, the melted copper cover immediately formed a metal jet focused toward the center, just like an insert.
It penetrated the armor of the Italian tanks like a soldering iron driven into the ice, and then brought the molten metal with them to sweep everything inside these tanks in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, more than fifty Italian tanks burst into flames, and the explosion of ammunition threw the turrets directly into the sky.
The rest of the Italians on the tanks were dumbfounded. This was too cruel. After all, we were tanks too. Armored steel plates were the guarantee of courage for so many people, but they were like paper in front of these thick pipes. They were frightened.
The idiots quickly controlled their Sanqi tank cannon to rotate slowly and began to aim at the off-road vehicle in the distance. Unfortunately, their aiming speed was ridiculously slow compared to the recoilless rifle mounted on the body gun mount.
Before the Italian tanks could fire their first shot, the second round of shells from the opposite side came over. This time it was much more serious, and all the tanks were destroyed in an instant.
The more heroic Italian infantry at the back were still preparing to save the collapsing battle situation with these tanks. In a blink of an eye, they were left fighting alone. Their compatriots on General Bartini's position were defeated or surrendered. Behind them, they should have been
The compatriots who followed them in the attack were also fleeing. Only less than one regiment of Italian soldiers were advancing or retreating there. When the recoilless rifle was replaced with anti-personnel grenades and the third round of shells was fired into their midst, these last few
The warriors dispersed in a hurry.
"This is like driving a duck away. Are these the so-called great powers? In my opinion, they are not as good as the Japanese back then!" Mi Zhenbiao sat on his off-road military vehicle and looked at the Italians who were being driven away like a duck with a binoculars.
, said with some emotion.
"Commander, Commander Liu wants to pursue or not?" the communications soldier asked from behind.
"What are you chasing? We are here to help the Austrians defend the city. How can we defend the city if we beat the Italians away?" Mi Zhenbiao said.
The communications soldier was at a loss for a moment. It was difficult for him to understand the theory of his military commander. Of course, his duty was to convey orders via radio and not to understand the rationality of the orders. Then, as the orders came out of the radio station, he was chasing
The Chinese soldiers who were chasing the defeated Italians stopped one after another and began to turn around and escort the surrendered Italians back to Budapest.
In this glorious victory, the Third Army of the First Group Army of the Chinese Aid to Europe defeated the Italian Sixth Army with less than 500 casualties, annihilated 20,000 enemies, captured 10,000 enemies, and completely wiped out the only Italian army attached to this army.
A chariot brigade. When the 10,000 Italian prisoners were escorted back to Budapest, the whole city was stunned. The Hungarians, who had been shaken by the Italians' approaching step by step during this period, immediately determined to continue fighting.
Showing courage, the Hungarian Prime Minister who originally refused to recruit Hungarian soldiers for Archduke Ferdinand also renewed his call for the Hungarian people to fight the invaders to the end.
Their allies asked for reinforcements, and they also wanted aircraft, tanks, and artillery. In short, they wanted everything they could. The British who were mainly responsible for helping them almost got angry. The two armies had nearly half a million troops.
It is extremely shameless to ask for reinforcements when dealing with less than 150,000 people.
Fortunately, with the sudden emergence of those mysterious North American submarines, the Allied navies in the Atlantic moved extremely carefully, so the maritime transportation line from North America to the United Kingdom was never cut off. Although merchant ships were often sunk, there were even two in the past few days.
The troop transport was captured. More than 5,000 North American soldiers were captured before they even went to the battlefield. But in general, North American industry and raw materials still added a certain amount of fresh blood to the Allied Powers.
While urging the Italians to continue their attack, the British had to squeeze out some precious supplies from other fronts and send them to the Hungarian front. At the same time, they stepped up their attack on Berlin. All North American reinforcements from the Americas were put into the German battlefield.
The total number of troops used in the Battle of Berlin reached 700,000, while the total number of German troops led by Crown Prince William was less than 200,000, and half of them were patchwork militiamen. Fortunately, they knew that the final victory would eventually belong to them.
, a large number of armed German civilians became a new force in the war.
The battle between the US and British coalition forces in Berlin can be said to be deep in the vast ocean of the People's War. Any kid picking up trash on the roadside may throw a deadly grenade at them, and any window that has not been cleaned may be shot out.
Bullets, even if a girl who smiled at them took out a pistol from her bra at the next moment, it would not be surprising at all. Not only was the US-British coalition making slow progress in Berlin, but the number of casualties was increasing day by day. According to the lamented words of the British newspaper, this was a crazy battle.
, there is no separate battle between civilians or soldiers, all Germans regardless of age or sex are enemies.
This battle has gone crazy, so naturally there can be no rules and restrictions. As for gentlemanly demeanor, it is a joke, especially when there are mostly North American soldiers who come with a heart for revenge. In the killing and resistance,
The cruelty in human nature was unleashed as the war became increasingly intense, and massacres, rapes, robberies and other crimes became increasingly common. The hatred between the two nations grew crazily under the fire of war, and was rapidly moving beyond Berlin.
The situation spread, and the German soldiers on the French battlefield who were angered by the bombing of Berlin by the American and British coalition forces even began to rush into prisoner of war camps and massacre the British soldiers they captured. In retaliation, the British also raised butcher knives against German prisoners of war.
At this time, the Allies received another terrible intelligence. The main force of the Chinese aid army in Bulgaria, which has increased to a total of 300,000 troops in Bulgaria, except for the two armies that continue to maintain the offensive against Serbia in Bulgaria with the two Ottoman armies.
Outside of the offensive, the remaining four armies all began to move towards the Ottoman territory. They were definitely not preparing to attack north from Kosovo. The high mountains there were enough to make any attacker desperate. The most likely option was to board a ship at an Albanian port and then pass through.
The Adriatic Sea headed north to land at the Port of Pula, which is still controlled by the Austro-Hungarian Navy, and attacked north to cut off the logistics supply lines of the Allied armies in the Balkans and Hungary.
