Jagged Germany
Chapter 1402: The momentum is like a broken bamboo (ask for a monthly ticket)"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Shells fell like raindrops one after another, hitting the defense line of the 18th Front Army of the Japanese Army, leaving huge craters. Especially the craters left by those 380mm shells are extremely huge. The officers and soldiers of the island army who were affected have been torn to pieces one by one.
"Boom!" A 380mm artillery shell happened to land in an island army tent. When the shell exploded, the entire tent disappeared. All the island soldiers sleeping inside were gone.
The shells of other large-caliber naval guns also caused great damage to the island army. Many soldiers of the island country army were torn to pieces even in their sleep, and went to see their Amaterasu god.
"Baga! What's going on?" Akito Nakamura rushed out of his tent in disheveled clothes.
However, what unfolded in front of him was a hell-like scene. Explosions are everywhere, and shells falling from the sky are devouring the lives of the soldiers of the island country army.
"Your Excellency, bombardment! The German navy is bombarding us with large-caliber naval guns!" Major General Moriya Seiji's face was pale.
"Damn! How could this happen?" Lieutenant General Akito Nakamura also had a glimmer of despair in his eyes. Such a result was unacceptable to him, and it was also something he had never thought of. However, the fact has already happened, even if you don't want to believe it, there is no other way.
"Your Excellency, Commander, what should we do now? The Germans have assembled a large number of warships and are firing at us! Our losses are very large." Lieutenant General Shojiro Iida, commander of the 15th Army, also ran over in panic.
The German Navy assembled dozens of warships and opened fire, and the firepower was very terrifying. Not to mention that there are many battleships and battlecruisers among them. The 380mm main gun, the 210mm main gun, the shells fired by these naval guns can take a large number of people's lives at once.
When the German Navy dispatched so many warships to open fire on the 18th Front Army of the Island Army, it was enough to cause a devastating blow to the 18th Front Army.
There were panicked Island Army soldiers everywhere, and many of them ran away before they even had time to put on their trousers. However, under the intensive firepower of the German navy, how could they escape!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Continuous explosions sounded on the position of the 18th Front Army of the Japanese Army, and a large number of Japanese soldiers were directly killed in the explosion. In front of the navy's large-caliber naval guns, their lives seemed so fragile.
"Order all troops to retreat immediately! We can't stay here anymore. If this continues, we will all be killed by German warships!" Lieutenant General Akito Nakamura gave the order with a dark face.
"Hi, Your Excellency Commander!" Major General Moriya Seiji replied.
It's just that the order to retreat was issued at this time, which seems to be too late. Under the heavy shelling of the German Navy, the 18th Front Army of the Japanese Army suffered great losses. At the same time, their organizational structure collapsed. Under the chaos, there were fleeing soldiers everywhere. They couldn't find their commander, so naturally they didn't care about obeying orders.
The entire 18th Front Army of the island country army is already fleeing. During this process, the German Navy is still seizing the opportunity to eliminate them continuously.
On the defense line of the German 226th Infantry Division, Lieutenant General William Adam, Commander of the German 23rd Army, Major General Erwin Vilo, Chief of Staff, and several division commanders who participated in the counterattack, all rushed here.
Behind the defense line of the 226th Infantry Division, the tanks and armored vehicles of the 23rd Zhuang Jiaxin, the 221st Mechanized Infantry Division, and the 222nd Mechanized Infantry Division have already been prepared and can launch an attack at any time.
"It's spectacular! The main guns of the guys in the navy are too powerful. No one can survive such a fierce shelling!" Lieutenant General William Adam sighed.
"Yes, Admiral, it is a utterly devastating force. I have to observe a few minutes' silence for the Islanders. But the Islanders should be able to die without pain from the bombardment of these large-caliber naval guns." Die. This is also a kind of kindness." Major General Erwin Willow said.
"Your Excellency, Commander, Your Excellency Chief of Staff. Such a scene almost happened to us!" Major General Friedley, commander of the 226th Infantry Division, looked terrified.
The army of the island country requested fire support from the navy. It is for this reason that the island navy task force joined the battle. It's just that it was finally intercepted by the German Navy, and it also paid the loss of participating in the war. If the German Army fails to intercept the island navy in time, or if it is defeated by the island navy instead, the consequences will be disastrous. At that time, the entire 226th Infantry Division will probably be destroyed under such fierce shelling.
"Haha!" Lieutenant General William Adam and a group of other German generals couldn't help laughing.
Indeed, the 226th Infantry Division can be regarded as a narrow escape this time!
The bombardment of the German Navy battleship formation lasted for a full hour before it ended. When they stopped shelling, the position of the 18th Front of the Japanese Army was no different from the surface of the moon. There are craters like craters everywhere. The officers and soldiers of the island army stationed on these positions suffered heavy losses.
The officers and soldiers of the island country army, who had managed to escape, were running away even more. None of them are fools, after being heavily bombarded by the German Navy and suffering heavy losses. They all knew that the German Army's counterattack would start immediately. Under such circumstances, they are undoubtedly unable to resist the attack of the German Army.
"Attack! Destroy the 18th Army of the Island Army in one fell swoop!" Lieutenant General William Adam, commander of the German 23rd Army, issued an order.
The 23rd Armored Division, the 221st Mechanized Infantry Division and the 222nd Mechanized Infantry Division, which had been prepared for a long time, immediately launched an attack. Hundreds of tanks and a large number of armored vehicles drove out of the position and rushed to the position of the 18th Front Army.
It's just that when they rushed to the position, they realized that there was no one in the position. There are bomb craters and broken limbs everywhere. Some larger craters, tanks and armored vehicles have to go around. Otherwise, it is possible to sink in and not be able to climb out.
Although the 18th Front Army on the Island Country Road has begun to flee. But how could they escape the pursuit of armored forces? The powerful armored force of the German 23rd Army easily broke through the interception of the 18th Front Army of the Japanese Army and began to completely wipe out the Front Army.
