Chapter 1350
Between tens of kilometers in front and more than ten kilometers in depth, the Bavarian Army used its own elite weapons and massive ammunition to quickly bleed its opponents! This is not because the opponent’s defense is too dense under the current historical conditions. This situation is similar to the battle of Kursk in the second battle in history. The defense is densely defensive, but it is a pity. The thing is, because the Russian army in World War I had almost no armored units, and its combat effectiveness was far from the opponent, the final result was just to delay the arrival of destruction!
”We wiped out at least 3 divisions in one day today. The Russian army of no less than 5 divisions was destroyed, and the number of war defense guns destroyed was more than 300! The number of long-range artillery destroyed or suspected to be destroyed exceeded 120, the Russian Really desperate.” When the first day is over. When Lieutenant General Raul submitted today's battle report, he couldn't help being shocked by the **** battle of this day.
”How about our casualties?” Prince Leopold asked.
”60 tanks were completely destroyed, and more than 40 left the battlefield for various reasons. The casualties were about 4,000. The key is the huge consumption of ammunition. Now the supply of ammunition has become the largest logistical pressure. In order to ensure the frontline Ammunition, our advancing speed may have to be compressed.” Lieutenant General Raul said.
”Are there any signs of thoroughness from other Russian armies?” Prince Leopold said suddenly.
”Uh, this, except for the Fifth and Fourth Army Groups which are concentrated in front of us, the other Russian Army Groups are still in place.” Lieutenant General Raul felt that he could not keep up with the Prince's thinking.
”That's good, don't worry, we can nail the two Russian armies firmly here when the other Russian troops are not moving, and send a report to the front-line divisions to remind them again to beware of Russian night attacks. ”Prince Leopold thought for a while and said.
”The Russians suffered heavy casualties today, they...” said an officer next to him.
”Hehe, think about it, the two Russian armies together have nearly 600,000 troops. These troops are so many that even with the current battlefield width, they can only go into battle one by one. Although they suffered heavy losses before, they are far It’s not the time when the oil is exhausted. If we grabbed one of the other’s legs this time, they could take a breather, but this time, we grabbed their throats, so you know!” Prince Opold said.
In the last period of time before dusk, the German army began to step up the final adjustments to its deployment. In the daytime, the second-line troops with lower fighting intensity began to enter the battlefield and take up the defense task at night. The armored units and elite mechanized infantry who have been fighting for a long time during the day retreat temporarily, and then with the help of the logistics unit, the damaged parts are replaced and various consumption is supplemented.
