"Attack and crush those damn Germany people. Let them know that they are not the only ones with tanks and armored troops in the world. United States's Armored Forces is no less inferior to them!" Major General Smith, commander of the US 1st Armored Division, roared loudly.
The US military 1st Armored Division is a heavy-duty Armored Division, which has two tank regiments and one armored infantry regiment. Among them, each tank regiment has three tank battalions, the 1st battalion is a light tank battalion, and the 2nd and 3rd battalions are medium or heavy tank battalions. As the first Armored Division formed by the US Army, the US military 1st Armored Division is the main force among all Armored Forces. The entire 1st Armored Division is equipped with a total of 158 M5 light tank, 232 M26 heavy tank, already a large number of armored vehicles, half-tracks and Truck. The entire Armored Division has a total of fifteen thousand people.
Although, Armored Division is inferior to German military in terms of military strength. However, in terms of the number of equipped tanks, there are not many at all. However, German armored forces, except for the reconnaissance troops equipped with light tanks, the rest of the tank troops are equipped with heavy tanks and medium tanks. And in terms of performance, it is completely capable of crushing these tanks equipped by the US military.
However, in front of infantry, the US military's Armored Forces is undoubtedly very powerful. In particular, the M26 heavy tank, which has been developed intensively by the US military, weighs 42 tons and has thick armor, as well as the 90 mm Tank Cannon, which has very good performance and can rival the German military's 'Panther tank' tank. Of course, in front of the 'Mighty Tiger' tank, it is even worse. As for the more powerful 'King Tiger tank' tank, it can easily tear M26 tank into pieces.
Hundreds of tanks, followed by a large number of armored vehicles, formed Steel Torrent and headed directly towards the beach.
"Shit! Americans actually secretly assembled a huge Armored Forces, how can we fight this battle?" Marine Corps Major General Cavin, commander of the 6th Division, couldn't help but turned pale when he learned that the US military's Armored Forces had launched an attack.
"Order our Amphibious Tank to prepare for battle. Anti-tank Gun and rocket launchers are deployed. It's time to go all out." Major General Carvin ordered.
"Yes, General." The officer immediately turned around and gave the order.
"Notify 4th Infantry Division that we are in trouble with the enemy. We need their reinforcements." Major General Cavin continued.
4th Infantry Division arrives at the German Army 4th Infantry Division in the south of Canso Strait via a floating bridge. However, their heavy equipment has not yet landed. This severely limits the combat effectiveness of this Infantry Division.
"Boom! Boom!"
The US military's Armored Forces was hit by German military's intensive artillery fire. The German military artillery deployed to the north of Canso Strait was full of firepower. On the one hand, they deployed some artillery fire to suppress the US artillery, and other artillery began to pour firepower on the US military's Armored Forces.
Although, using Howitzer to attack Armored Forces, the hit rate is not high. However, these Howitzer have a large caliber and are very powerful. Once hit, the US military tanks will not be able to withstand it. Especially those heavy-duty Howitzers with a caliber of 210 mm. If a shell hits, it is enough to blow up a M26 heavy tank into a pile of parts.
"Boom!"
A 150mm Shell hit a M26 heavy tank. The 42-ton tank was destroyed on the spot and turned into a pile of burning scrap metal.
Artillery shells in the sky continued to rain down, and tanks continued to be hit.
A 210mm artillery shell hit the ground, leaving a huge crater. Although there was no direct hit on the US tank, the shock wave generated overturned two M5 light tank.
"Asshole, speed up. After rushing into the Germany people's position, the Germany people's artillery fire will have no way to deal with us!" Major General Smith ordered with a livid face.
German military's fierce artillery fire has caused them to lose a lot of tanks. Although this may be insignificant compared to the hundreds of tanks owned by 1st Armored Division. But it will have a great impact on the morale of the troops. After all, although the US military 1st Armored Division is very powerful, this is their first time on the battlefield.
"Anti-tank Gun, fire!"
A 75mm Anti-tank Gun on the German military position opened fire.
"Boom!"
Armor-piercing Shell slammed into the front armor of a M26 tank. The 120 mm thick front armor of the tank was penetrated, and a fist-sized bullet hole appeared. The tank soldiers inside were even killed by fragments.
"At 1 o'clock, a Anti-tank Gun with Germany people, destroy them!" A M26 tank from the US military discovered the threat and launched a decisive attack.
"Boom!"
The shell roared out of the gun barrel and hit German anti-tank guns in the blink of an eye.
In the explosion, German anti-tank guns was blown into a pile of parts. Anti-tank Gun soldiers were also killed.
Although the anti-tank firepower of German military is not weak, in addition to the 75mm Anti-tank Gun, even the 88mm Anti-aircraft Gun for anti-aircraft has also been added. These 88mm Anti-aircraft Gun are very powerful. Even the US military's M26 heavy tank will be easily turned into a pile of scrap metal once hit.
However, the anti-tank firepower of German military destroyed many US tanks. But compared to the hundreds of tanks invested by the US military, the anti-tank firepower of German military is still too little. Under the impact of the US military's Armored Forces, many Anti-tank Gun were destroyed.
In a foxhole, two soldiers are lying in ambush. A soldier carries a rocket launcher on his shoulder.
"Americans's tank is less than fifty meters away from us and can fire."
"Phew!"
A rocket flew towards the American tank.
"Boom!"
The side of the tank was hit, and the metal jet produced after the explosion of the armor-piercing warhead penetrated the weak armor on the side of the tank. The tank crew inside were also killed on the spot. After losing control, the tank stopped directly.
"Get out of here!"
After a successful blow, the German military soldier rolled and crawled away from the foxhole.
As soon as they left here, the foxhole was hit by American machine gun bullets and the dust flew up.
"Da da da!"
A Heavy Machine Gun on the German military position was firing, and dense machine gun bullets hit the US tank, shooting out sparks. Occasionally, bullets hit the American infantrymen who were following the tanks, causing them to howl in agony.
"Boom!"
A M5 light tank from the US military opened fire, and the shells fired by 37mm Tank Gun easily tore the Heavy Machine Gun firepower point into pieces.
Under the impact of the US military's Armored Forces, German defensive line is in danger. Canso Strait German military on the south bank was also caught in a fierce and bloody battle.
