Chapter 773 Anti-tank trenches 3)

At night, the main force behind arrived, and as the main person in charge of the battle against Britain, Guderian also appeared in front of Dietrich.

Germany pioneered new tactics, and blitzkrieg made the enemy stupid, but the British were able to creatively create anti-tank fortifications at this time!

The British did hit Germany's weakness.

Almost all German tanks were in the field. The last time they fought Exeter, they showed the shortcomings of tanks in the city. But now, they have to attack big cities like London.

what to do?

The British creatively dug out anti-tank trenches to hinder the attack of the German army. Yes, this is a difficult problem before the German troops.

The trenches from World War I came in handy again here.

"The British are waiting for us behind the anti-tank trenches." Goodrian's face was calm: "The British are testing to see if we dare to cross this anti-tank trenches."

"Now, the best way is to build a bridge." Dietrich spoke. When it was still dawn, he had observed the opposite side countlessly and thought about how to solve this problem.

If there is no water, it would be easier. Now the other party has actually brought the river water over, so the best way is to build a bridge.

"No." The commander of the Skeleton Division, Armored Meyer, said: "If there is no water inside, we will build a bridge. Now, the anti-tank trenches are filled with water, and the soil on both sides will be soft. Even if we build a bridge, we cannot guarantee safety. It is very likely that the bridge built will collapse during the operation."

Their men are all the most elite troops, and the tank soldiers are all veterans. No matter how narrow the bridge is, they dare to step on the accelerator to move over, but now they cannot. The tank weighs forty tons. Once it collapses, the tank will easily turn over.

Meier is experienced and can see the danger at a glance. If they are allowed to watch the Black Panther 3 tanks roll down from behind, it will make them feel in pain.

"Or what if we use bulldozers?" Denied Ditrich's plan, and Meyer proposed his own idea.

Bulldozers are also an important solution to deal with trenches. You must know that there are not so many mechanical equipment in this era, and there are not a large number of graduates from Lanxiang Academy to start.

The anti-tank trenches here are almost all dug by hand, and it would be great if they could be dug out, and no one would transport the digging of soil away.

The soil is piled next to the trenches, so as long as you turn the bulldozer over, you can fill the trenches in one go.

Ordinary bulldozers are definitely not good, but even if you temporarily modify some armored bulldozers, or even add a shovel in front of the tank to bulldoz, there is no problem.

Refill it!

Now, it was Ditrich's turn to deny him.

"No, you haven't been in front." Dietrich said: "The British are very cunning, and those soils are piled up on them. There must be a defensive master on the other side."

Generally speaking, when digging a trench, the digging soil is piled in front of you, so that the soil is used as a chest wall to increase the height of defense. This is almost the orthodox textbook in the infantry Scriptures.

Then, it is almost the same when digging tank trenches.

However, the British did not do this. The British piled up the soil on their side. In this way, even if they wanted to use bulldozers, there would be no soil to push for. It was so embarrassing.

Moreover, if your tank moves over, it will be uphill and reveal the most fragile bottom, making it easier to be attacked by the opponent's anti-tank firepower!

One by one, the plans were rejected, and even Guderian frowned at this time. This time, he was indeed in trouble.

If you don’t care about the cost, you can still conquer it. For example, applying from the rear to mobilize amphibious tanks, and passing through such water-carried trenches is like fish in water.

However, they cannot gain an advantage.

The armor of amphibious tanks is too thin. Although they can get through this small trench, what if they pass? Their armor cannot even block a large-caliber anti-tank gun. Once they pass, they will have to be blown up one by one!

For the same reason, their infantry fighting vehicles with the ability to wader cannot rush to the front line, and they are all in vain.

After a lot of lively discussion and all the proposals were rejected, the scene finally became a mess.

Everyone was thinking hard, what was the solution to cross this anti-tank trench at the lowest cost?

Moreover, it must be the main force, tanks that can withstand any anti-tank fire strike from the opponent!

Just as the front line was blocked, the news also came back to Paris. Cialek, who was still commanding the battle in Paris, was stunned when he heard about the situation on the front line.

Generally speaking, Cialek is responsible for strategic trends, such as the army's attacks on the east and west, landing in the UK, how to develop in the future, etc., and is generally not responsible for specific tactics, which should be the responsibility of the front-line commander.

Now, the British suddenly had a whim and the modern moat he created was stunned by Cialique. It seems that the British are really good at thinking.

Everyone has unlimited potential. When they are forced into a dead end, it is easier to burst out this energy. Now it is a living example.

"The British really have ideas," said Cialick. "I think we might as well let Dr. Porsche's new toy show off and let the British taste the feeling of being crushed by the front."

Dr. Porsche’s new toy? Hearing this, the people present were stunned. The fat Scherner immediately said: "Dr. Porsche’s project is still not going well now. There are various technical failures that cannot be overcome. Is it appropriate to take it to the battlefield now?"

"Weapons are for use," said Cialek. "Now, since there is a need, I'll take it to the battlefield to take a look."

"What if that doesn't work?" Keitel asked.

"No? There is nothing wrong with it. If it doesn't work, then just explode the Teddington Barrier. Don't the British like to play in the water? Then let them play enough at once!" Cialick said in a stern manner.

If that dam is blown up, the whole of London will be covered by floods!

Last time I used fire to kill a city, and this time I switched to water! In short, since the British were not as cooperative as the French and surrendered obediently, let them know how powerful they are!
