"God! What do these Russians want to do? They are too desperate!" The generals of German military were stunned after seeing the Russian army's attack method.

You know, in order to avoid being accidentally injured by one's own artillery, when attacking, one often waits until one's own artillery begins to extend into the depth of the enemy before launching an attack.

But now, the Russian artillery fire is still preparing firepower to bombard German military's forward position, and their infantry has already launched an attack. This is so amazing!

In the eyes of ordinary people, General Leiningen-Kempf must be crazy. However, only he himself knew that there was no way around it. Who makes German military too strong and they are too weak?

If they play according to the normal style of play, they will definitely not be able to break through German defensive line. 2nd Army Corps was easily seriously injured by German military with powerful firepower. This is a lesson learned from the past!

That's why General Leiningen-Kempf came up with this crazy tactic. That is, not afraid of accidental injury. While the artillery was bombarding, the infantry also attacked. This makes it impossible for German military to hide in the fortifications and must enter the position to resist the Russian attack. In this case, the Russian artillery may be able to cause greater damage to German military. If you are lucky, you may have the chance to severely damage German military. In this case, the Russian army will have a greater chance of escaping.

"Damn Russians, are they going to fight us desperately?" Lieutenant General François also turned pale after hearing the news. Obviously, Russians's tactics put them in a very difficult position. Although German military's combat effectiveness is very strong, its small number of troops is a flaw. Russians uses a suicide attack to exchange casualties with German military, which will inevitably cause German military to pay a lot of losses.

"General, what should we do now?"

"Hmph! Russians dares to fight hard, don't we dare to fight hard? The soldiers of the German Empire are the bravest in the world." Lieutenant General François said.

"Order the infantry to enter the position immediately and prepare to fight. No matter how high the price is, we must stop Russians and keep them all. In addition, tell the artillery to do their best to suppress Russians's artillery fire. Whether they can suppress Russians in the shortest time will determine how many casualties we will pay in this battle!" Lieutenant General François ordered.

When there is no other way, this method can only be used.

"Yes, General."

All German military generals know that Lieutenant General François is also preparing to fight Russians desperately.

After the order was issued, the German military soldiers hiding in the anti-gun cave were in a daze. After all, the explosions overhead are still continuing, which undoubtedly shows that the bombardment of Russians is still continuing! If you go out now, wouldn't you be courting death?

However, the duty of a soldier is to obey orders. Since their superiors gave orders, they had no choice but to obey. What's more, after learning that Russians adopted such desperate tactics, they had no reason to say anything more. After all, even Russians dares to fight, so what can they not dare to do?

"Valiants, pick up your weapons and prepare to fight. Let Russianss know that Valiants of the German Empires are not afraid of death either!"

A company commander shouted loudly, and after saying that, he was the first to rush out of the anti-gun hole.

The other soldiers followed closely, rushing out of the anti-gun holes and entering their positions to prepare for battle.

"Boom!"

A 76.2mm artillery shell fell, and several soldiers were blown away on the spot. But the other soldiers didn't even have time to fear. They advanced further along the communication trench and arrived at the forward position, ready to fight. They can only use Russians's lives to avenge their dead comrades in the next battle.

German military on the front line got out of the shell-proof holes and other fortifications where they were hiding, and entered the forward position to fight. The Russian artillery bombardment caused them a lot of casualties. However, no one backed down. Everyone is working hard!

German artillerymen On the position, a large number of gunners took off their shirts and carried artillery shells shirtless. There were beads of sweat everywhere on their bodies, but they didn't even have time to wipe them off.

In order to save their comrades from sacrifice, they must suppress the Russian artillery fire in the shortest possible time. Only in this way can one's own casualties be reduced.

The fierce battle began like this. It can be said that this battle has directly entered the climax stage.

"Boom! Boom!"

Russian artillery shells continued to fall on the German military position, and soldiers died in the explosions from time to time. But the remaining people continued to fight.

During this process, the Russian infantry was not far from German military's position.

"Fire! Kill all those Russians!" Front-line commander of German military ordered.

"Da da da!"

The German military machine gunners, who had already been simmering with anger, took the lead in starting shooting. A series of General Purpose Machine Gun and Squad Automatic Weapon began to fire wildly. The dense bullets were like a steel storm, shrouding the Russian offensive line. All the Russian officers and soldiers who were enveloped were shot and killed. Many of them were even hit by dozens of bullets and were beaten into honeycombs.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Mortars and Grenade Launcher also started shooting one after another, and dense artillery shells and grenades were thrown at the Russian queue. The shells exploded, sending shrapnel flying, harvesting the lives of these Russian soldiers.

The Russian soldiers also performed extremely bravely in this battle. They knew that if they didn't fight hard, they would be dead. So, they have no other choice.

The Russian generals who were watching the battle from behind took a deep breath.

"Damn it, the firepower of the Germany people is really strong. They are so extravagant that they equip one army with so many machine guns. This is crazy!" The Russian generals all exclaimed.

Although, the cost of machine guns is not high. However, after equipping a machine gun, subsequent supplies are very important. Equipped with a large number of machine guns, this will undoubtedly increase the supply of the troops. In their opinion, this view of Germany people is really wasteful.

But I have to admit that after equipping a large number of machine guns, the firepower has indeed been enhanced to the extreme. At least, that's how it works on defense. In the face of the powerful firepower of German military, the Russian officers and soldiers were desperately attacking. However, their attack was of no use at all, and was leading to death.

That's right, the Russian army's attack is completely seeking death. In the face of German military's powerful firepower, they simply couldn't rush to German defensive line, let alone break through German defensive line. The corpses of the Russian soldiers had already piled up in a thick layer on the ground.
