Chapter 885
"Your Excellency, Commander, our troops have successfully landed on the Florida Peninsula. In addition to the four Marine Divisions, the 3rd Army and the 6th Army each have two infantry divisions ashore. Next, the main forces of the 3rd Army and the 4th Army will all land on the Florida Peninsula, and then launch an attack on the Eagle Army. During the battle last night, the 21st Group Army of the Eagle Army invested a large number of troops to launch a counterattack, but we were crushed."General Franz Halder, Chief of Staff of Army Group South, reported.
Marshal Rommel nodded:"Let the 3rd Army and 6th Army seize the time. Soon Army Group North will launch an attack. Since we first landed on the mainland of Eagle Sauce Country. Then, we have to defeat our enemies first!"
"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander!"General Franz Halder nodded.
"In addition, let the 3rd Armored Group deploy two armored divisions to land. We're on the Florida Peninsula and need a strong armored force to sweep through them!"Marshal Rommel said.
As one of the most outstanding commanders of the Third Reich's armored forces, Marshal Rommel was well aware of the power of armored forces on the battlefield. Especially in Eagle Country, a country with flat terrain and good transportation facilities. The country is the area where armored forces can focus their efforts.
Although the 3rd Army and the 6th Army have 20 infantry divisions, each infantry division has a tank battalion equipped with 60 Panther medium tanks. But they have to face The right enemy is not weak. Each army group of the Eagle Army has two armored divisions. Especially the 21st Army, one of the armored divisions is a heavy armor division. The
Army of the Eagle on the Florida Peninsula The six armored divisions have a total of more than 1,600 tanks.
Moreover, tanks must be used intensively to bring out their assault power. The tank battalions dispersed to various infantry divisions are more likely to attack the enemy's defense line. Just attacking
"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander!"General Franz Halder replied.
As more and more troops of the Third Reich landed on the Florida Peninsula, the Third Reich's attacks became more fierce. Especially half of the strength of the 3rd Army and the 6th Army, They were all used to launch an attack on the 21st Army of the Eagle Country. The 21st Army Group of the Eagle Country was retreating steadily and could not resist. On the morning of April 9, the two sides even fought at Lake Okeechobee in the middle of the southern Florida Peninsula. In the southern area, a tank battle broke out.
The 5th Armored Division and the 37th Armored Division of the 21st Army of the Eagle Army, and the 6th Armored Division of the Third Reich Army and the 5 tanks of each infantry division of the 3rd Army Battalion, a big battle broke out.
Both sides invested more than 1,200 tanks in this tank battle.
But unfortunately, this tank battle was unfair from the beginning. The Eagle Army At the beginning of the battle, the tanks were attacked by the Third Reich Air Force. A group of 36 dive bombers and a group of 36 ground attack aircraft entered the battlefield and launched an attack on the tanks of the Eagle Country.
These fighters directly caused extremely heavy losses to the tanks of the Eagle Army. Nearly two hundred tanks were destroyed by the fighters of the Third Reich Air Force. So that they were completely suppressed in the subsequent tank battle.
What's more, The M4 medium tanks, M3Lee medium tanks, and M3 light tanks equipped by the armored forces of the Eagle Kingdom are simply no match for the Tiger heavy tanks and Panther medium tanks of the Third Reich. The battle was almost completely one-sided, and the Eagle The tank troops of the Chinese Army were completely beaten.
Within half an hour, most of the two armored divisions of the Chinese Army were lost.
The remaining troops ran away frantically, trying to escape.
But the third However, the empire's armored forces launched a frantic pursuit.
Coupled with the pursuit of fighter planes in the sky, the two armored divisions of the Eagle Army were eventually lost. All the tanks were destroyed, and the casualties were also very large..
Two armored divisions were annihilated, which made the 21st Army of the Eagle Army lose the capital to continue fighting.
Lieutenant General Stanley Embik issued an order that afternoon, requiring all units to withdraw from their positions and evacuate to In the central part of the Florida Peninsula, they joined up with the 26th Army. They tried to rely on the strength of the two armies to resist the Third Reich's attack.
But unfortunately, even so, they could not withstand the Third Reich's attack.
The Third Reich Army's The two armies surged northward almost along the coastlines on both sides of the Florida Peninsula.
The warships of the Third Reich Navy provided powerful fire support to the army. Especially the large-caliber naval guns made the Eagle Army The losses were heavy. The carrier-based aircraft units of the Third Reich Air Force and Navy launched fierce bombings against the Eagle Army. Groups of fighter planes chased the Eagle Army almost across the entire peninsula. Constantly Throwing bombs on their heads, blowing the soldiers of the Eagle Army into pieces. At the same time, these fighters were still strafing with aviation machine guns and cannons, taking away lives one by one.
In the Third Reich Army Under the fierce attack, the Yingjiang Army was retreating steadily.
On April 10, the Third Reich's Army Group North also launched an offensive.
On the Florida Peninsula, the Third Reich's offensive was even more intense.
The remnants of the 21st Army and the 26th Army of the Japanese Army were severely damaged by the Third Reich's 3rd Army and part of the 6th Army in Orlando, losing more than half. The remaining troops retreated frantically north of the Florida Peninsula.
At the same time, the 6th Army of the Third Reich, with the strong firepower support of the navy and air force, captured Jacksonville. This puts the 28th Group Army of the Chinese Army under tremendous pressure.
In addition, the Third Reich Army also launched a landing operation in Tallahassee in the northwest Florida Peninsula.
The 9th Army and two Marine Divisions landed here. The 25th Group Army of the Eagle Army stationed here was severely damaged.
This put the American Army's troops on the Florida Peninsula at risk of being cut off.
As a result, these American Army troops had to evacuate the Florida Peninsula frantically and retreated to the hinterland far away from the coast.
But even so, the Eagle Army has lost more than half of its 1.2 million people in the three armies deployed on the Florida Peninsula. The losses they caused to the Third Reich Army were relatively small.
