Chapter 617

Chapter 617: Land of Brimstone! Hell's vanguard! The war weariness of the Germans!

"Captain Aldous, I order you to lead the team immediately to blow up the iron bridge in front of you!"

At this time, just when the German troops were releasing poisonous gas and blocking the battlefield!

In the town of Korlesay.

Commander Hans, the 2nd Regiment of the 3127th Division of the German Northern Group, who was responsible for the defense here, was giving orders.

Because the town of Korlesay was already The fourth line of defense is 50 kilometers away from the front line!

Therefore, the Germans did not expect!

Xia's tank commando team could actually break through 3 lines of defense and reach here in one day!

So!

Don't look at the town of Korlasay, which is the most critical before Reims. barrier.

However, the Germans only placed one infantry regiment here!

And!

Just listen to the unit number and you will know!

The 3127th Division was a supplementary division formed by Germany at the end of the war.

Not only was its combat effectiveness low, but its soldiers and morale were also insufficient.

Moreover, it is different from the one division of the German Empire in the early days of the 1980-314 War, which had 2 infantry brigades, 4 infantry regiments, 12 battalions, and 48 companies. In fact, Germany made a revision of the division-level organization in 1917 Big reform!

That is, cut off an infantry regiment and an artillery battalion from each division, and then reduce the infantry battalions of each regiment from 3 to 2!

As for why!

It is because of insufficient manpower and insufficient artillery. We can only reduce the establishment!

Form the so-called shelf division!

So, don’t look at the fact that there is only one regiment! In fact!

The strength is only 2 battalions with about 1,000 people!

There is not even an artillery company directly under the regiment headquarters!

And the entire army There are only 6 77 artillery pieces!

So!

Captain Hans was so anxious to blow up the bridge!

Because he knew! With

1,000 of his own men, there was no way he could hold the iron bridge!

Blow up the bridge first and it would be over. Say it again!

However!

Facing his military order, the commander of the 1st Battalion of the 3117th Division was shaking his head.

"Sir Hans, the soldiers refused to come near the combat zone while the gas bombs were in effect!"

"This is a military order!"The regiment commander was also angry. He didn't expect that his soldiers refused to carry out the order!

But he saw Hans taking out the Ruger P08 pistol from his waist and pointing it at his battalion commander!

"Do you want to disobey me and let me enforce battlefield discipline?"

However, I saw my immediate superior took out a pistol.

On the side!

Other battalion-level and company-level commanders who jointly participated in the combat meeting also stood up.

"Leader, you can go to the position and ask yourself! See who will join you on missions!"

"A battalion commander would rather be shot than gassed!"

"and!"

"No one will attack there while the gas is taking effect!"

"Unless the attacker is a lunatic!"

Seeing that everyone refused to blow up the iron bridge in the poisonous smoke while the poison gas was in effect!

Hans, the commander of the 2nd Regiment of the 3117th Division, could only sigh.

He is an Imperial Lord and a German nobleman.

He has noble blood on his body.!

Soldiers can refuse to carry out orders!

But proud nobles cannot!

This is a family honor that must be defended!

"Since no one wants to go!"

"Then I will lead the team myself!"

"Now the whole group draws lots and selects a squad to carry explosives and follow me to the bridge!"!!!

Everyone did not expect that the captain would lead the team himself.

And he also used lots to choose the unlucky guy!

For a moment, everyone was helpless!

Captain Hans took the lead and led the team himself!

We can What to do!

They continued to persuade:"Lord Hans, there is no need to take such risks! We just need to wait until the poisonous gas dissipates before blowing up the bridge!"

"yes! Just wait 2 hours!"

"We have prepared the explosives, and we will attack as soon as the poisonous gas dissipates!"

"As a group, why can't we blow up a bridge?"

"There is no need for this!"

It's no wonder these officers said this.

Because the people participating in the battle now are no longer the fanatical Junker military aristocrats in the early days of the war!

Many of them are farmers and workers who were recruited into the battlefield.

And the power of poisonous gas , these people have seen it a long time ago!

People who are poisoned by mustard gas!

It can be said that life is worse than death.

Some people have skin ulcers all over their bodies.

Some people are blind. There are even people who inhale too much poisonous gas and bleed to death from their seven orifices. People!

To be honest!

This is more painful than beating people to death directly!

Why was poison gas used in large quantities in World War I!

But in World War II, the number of uses of poison gas dropped rapidly.

Because the disadvantages of using poison gas are too obvious! (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

That means that this thing can’t tell the difference between friend and foe!

Because poisonous gas can basically only be used on fixed battlefields such as trenches and tunnels!

However, people are not fools!

In World War II, we saw When poisonous gas appears, many troops will withdraw from the front line and enter the second line of defense. Wait until the poisonous gas dissipates, then come back and reoccupy the position.

Of course, there are many smart people who will think.

I will launch a charge while the poisonous gas is about to dissipate, and wait until the charge arrives. In front of the enemy's position, it would be great if the poisonous gas just dissipates!

Just like the advance of artillery fire, take advantage of the tail of the last round of artillery fire to charge!

However, this is poisonous gas, not artillery fire. Poisonous gas is usually heavier than air and will gather in low places............

For example, underground trenches and bunkers!

So, this kind of smart guy charges when the poisonous gas is about to dissipate!

Often as soon as they rush into the enemy's trenches, they take a wave of their own poison.

If you fail to steal the chicken, you will lose the rice!

Just like now, the German army used poison gas bombs near the Aronde River position, and now the iron bridge over the Aronde River is filled with poisonous smoke!

The Allies did not dare to attack.

However, people from the Allied Powers didn’t dare to get close! finally!

Under the drawing of lots.

The commander of the 2nd Regiment of the 3127th Division, with a squad of commandos, rushed out of the town of Korlesai with ammunition, braved the fire of the American artillery, and rushed towards the iron bridge over the Aronde River!

Hiss, hiss - the poisonous gas is everywhere around the iron bridge.[]

In heaven and earth!

There is yellow-green poisonous gas everywhere.

Although carrying a full set of protective clothing and gas masks.

But seeing this scene.

Whether it was the commander of the 2nd regiment or the commando behind him, his scalp was numb.

"We were going through hell!"

"Damn it!"

"The leader is bringing us to die!"

"My filter seems to be failing! I want to go back! I want to quit!"

"Damn it, just turn around and I'll kill you. This is double-layer filtering, so there will definitely be no problem. You just feel scared!"

At this time, it was already May.
