Jagged Germany

   "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

  The artillerymen on both sides are doing their best to fire the shells. The Russian army wanted to use artillery shells to destroy the German defense line and clear the way for the infantry to attack. The German army wanted to rely on heavy artillery to suppress the Russian artillery positions and prevent the Russian artillery from causing too much damage to its own defense line.

  In the artillery battle, although the artillerymen of both sides could not see each other. However, this does not mean that the artillery battle was not tragic. In fact, the artillery battle was also very tragic. Once hit by enemy shells, it will often be smashed to pieces.

   "Boom!" A 150mm artillery shell hit an artillery position of the Russian army. After the shell exploded, a crater appeared in the center of the position, and several surrounding 76.2mm field guns were blown away. Those artillerymen were torn to pieces.

  The shelling of the German army was very accurate. Under the guidance of the artillery observation balloon, it can accurately hit the artillery positions of the Russian army. This caused the artillery losses of the Russian army to rise in a straight line.

   Within half an hour of the battle, the Russian artillery had to stop. Otherwise, their artillery would probably be lost.

   "Order the infantry to launch an attack!" Admiral Letsky had no choice but to order the infantry to launch an attack in advance. Originally, he wanted to carry out long-term firepower preparations. But in that case, their artillery would probably be lost. This is very unfavorable for subsequent operations.

   "Yes, General." A lieutenant general nodded.

   A few minutes later, more than 30,000 Russian soldiers launched an attack on the German positions. Those yellow and emaciated Russian soldiers, holding bayonet-mounted rifles, rushed towards the German position quickly. They were in a mess, and there was no formation at all. He yelled the slogan "Ula" loudly in his mouth, looking full of momentum. But in fact, it is conceivable how effective it is.

  The commander of the 20th Army of the German Army used a telescope to observe the situation on the front line. After seeing the Russian army launching an attack, he couldn't help laughing.

   "To be honest, I envy the Russians." Lieutenant General Mackensen said.

   "General, why?" The generals under him were a little puzzled.

"Russia's population is too large, so they don't care about the lives of ordinary soldiers at all, and they can let them die at will. However, the German Empire can't do it. For us, the life of every soldier is important. Precious. Therefore, we have to train them with great care and arm them with the best weapons so that they can save their lives in battle. In this case, it is really too troublesome. It is the Russians who are the most trouble-free Ah!" Lieutenant General Mackensen exclaimed.

  The other German generals couldn't help laughing.

   Indeed, Russia has a large population, which makes their soldiers sufficient. When fighting, they don't care about the lives of ordinary soldiers at all. However, Germany is different. Germany has a small population, so it cares about the life of every soldier. This makes them have to train every soldier into an elite and equip the troops with the best weapons.

  Of course, everyone can hear that Lieutenant General Mackensen is mocking the Russians. If Russia didn't have such a large population and so many troops, they would have been defeated by other countries long ago. It is impossible for Russia to rank among the world powers at all.

   "Order the front line and prepare for battle! The Russians have a lot of troops, so don't hold back and kill them all." Lieutenant General Mackensen ordered. The expression on his face was very cold, as if he didn't care about the lives of those Russian soldiers at all.

   "Yes, General."

   "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

  Russian army's offensive had just begun when it was heavily shelled by the German army. The artillery battalions of the previous infantry regiments did not fire. They saved all the shells to deal with the Russian infantry.

  The German 75mm field gun, the imitation of the French Miss 75, has been improved, the most important thing is to reduce the weight and improve the reliability. But the maximum rate of fire can still reach 15 rounds per minute.

  More than a hundred 75mm field guns frantically poured shells at the Russian offensive troops. If the dense shells fell like raindrops, they exploded in the Russian army queue, tearing those Russian soldiers to pieces.

   Almost every explosion of a shell can set off a **** storm in the Russian army's queue and take away countless lives. However, the Russian army has too many troops and has not been affected by it. Those Russian soldiers, as if they were not afraid of death, charged forward with their heads down until they themselves were killed by shells.

"Damn the Germans, they have prepared so many cannons, it's really abominable!" Admiral Letzsky, watching his soldiers suffer heavy casualties under the heavy German artillery fire, couldn't help but feel greatly scolded.

"General, there is no way around it. The Germans' artillery was already much stronger than ours. Now, they are equipped with heavy artillery such as 150mm among their infantry, and we are even further behind by them. It's gone." The Russian artillery commander said with a bitter face.

   Admiral Letzsky nodded, feeling helpless in his heart. This is caused by the gap in national strength between the two sides, and these soldiers have nothing to do about it.

   "Fire!"

   Soon, the mortars on the German positions also started shelling, one after another shells fell into the Russian army's queue, once again reaping the lives of the Russian army.

   Although the power of the mortar is not great, the German army is equipped with a large number of such artillery with a fast rate of fire and capable of curved fire.

   Now, the mortar has almost become the best infantry support firepower equipped by the German army.

"Da da da!"

  When the Russian army paid a heavy price, it rushed to a place about two or three hundred meters away from the German defense line. But a large number of general-purpose machine guns and squad machine guns of the German army started shooting again.

  The dense machine gun bullets almost formed an airtight barrage, and the Russian army slammed into this barrage. But how can a fragile human body fight against steel? The consequence of this is that the attacking Russian soldiers, like cutting wheat, fell to the ground row by row, and were all shot and killed by the German army with intensive machine gun fire.

   "The massacre has begun! It's really spectacular to watch these Russians die one after another!" Lieutenant General Mackensen sighed.

   "General, as you said, the Russian population is too large. If we don't kill them like this, how can we win?" a major general said.

   "Haha, yes! Let the Russians stand on our defense line and smash their heads!" Lieutenant General Mackensen laughed.
