Russia is called the weakest among the great powers, and it is not without reason. If it weren't for the vast territory and huge population of Russia, it would be impossible for the poor and backward Russia to become a great power. Their army is poorly equipped and has low combat effectiveness. There is a huge gap between them and other great powers. Of course, the Russian army's Urra Charge, which ignores death, still puts great pressure on the military forces of various countries.
In terms of technological strength, Russia is also much weaker than other major powers. The most direct reflection is undoubtedly the military aspect. Russia's military technology is undoubtedly very backward among other countries. Of course, due to financial reasons, the Russian army's equipment is also very crude and lacks artillery and automatic weapons.
With the development of science and technology, the role of military superiority in war will become less and less obvious. In this case, it will be even more difficult for the Russian army to win this war.
"Da da da!"
The remaining Heavy Machine Guns on the Russian position began to fire, and dense bullets hit the German military tanks, making a crisp sound. However, the machine gun bullets that can break the human body into honeycombs and tear them into pieces are not a threat to these iron lumps. Although the sparks are flying, they will only leave a little mark on the thick armor of the tank at most. For a tank, this cannot cause substantial damage at all.
Therefore, when the Russian soldiers saw the tanks continuing to move forward despite their fierce firepower, their eyes widened and their faces were full of Panic.
"God! Germany's weapons can't be penetrated by bullets at all."
"That is not a human weapon at all, it is completely a weapon of the devil. Germany and the devil have colluded."
People in this era are more or less ignorant. When they encounter something they cannot understand, they will turn to ghosts and gods. Doing so will not only make them unable to defeat German military, but will also make them even more Panic and less motivated to continue fighting.
"Damn it, that's not the devil's weapon, that's a new weapon developed by the Germany people!" an officer yelled.
"Pfft!"
Before the officer could finish speaking, a machine gun bullet hit him in the chest. The large-caliber machine gun bullet was so powerful that it directly broke his spine. Blood gushes from the officer's mouth in large mouthfuls, and his eyes slowly lose their luster.
"God! The company commander is dead." The surrounding Russian soldiers all exclaimed. Without a leader, they seemed even more chaotic.
German military's tanks kept approaching the Russian army's position. At the same time, they continued to use Tank Cannon and machine guns to fire at the Russian positions, killing the Russian soldiers.
Although, the Russian soldiers desperately used their weapons to fight back at German armored forces. But lacking anti-tank weapons, their counterattack was in vain, and they were unable to stop the advance of German military's tank troops.
This also caused the morale of the Russian army to begin to decline rapidly.
Russian Guard 2nd Army Corps's headquarters, General Krapovitch paced back and forth anxiously. He could hear the shelling on the front line clearly in the headquarters, which made him feel a little restless.
Although, Guard 2nd Army Corps can be considered an elite unit of the Russian army. However, they were not sure whether they could resist German offensive.
Now, General Krapovitch can only pray that Guard 2nd Army Corps's combat effectiveness can be fully exerted, while German military's combat effectiveness is not as powerful as the legend says. In that case, maybe they still have a chance to resist German offensive. At the same time, General Krapovitch also hopes that 9th Army Corps of General Letsky can arrive as soon as possible. In that case, they still have a glimmer of hope. Otherwise, Guard 2nd Army Corps's situation will be very dangerous.
"How is the situation on the front line?" General Krapovitch asked.
"General, the situation on the front line is very bad. The Germany people's shelling has just ended, but they dispatched tank troops to attack. Our forward positions cannot stop the German tanks troops' attack at all," a general reported.
"Damn it! It's the German tanks unit again. Are their tank units really as invincible as the legend says?" General Krapovitch frowned.
"General, the examples of 1st Army Corps and 2nd Army Corps are right there. I think this is not a legend. We are seeking confirmation from the front line, and there should be news soon," the general said.
General Krapovitch nodded. "Ask the front line, can they still hold on?"
A few minutes later, Russian Guard 2nd Army Corps headquarters received a reply from the front line. It's just that the front line is asking for a retreat, or asking for more troops to be sent to them.
"General, the frontline generals reported that the attack of the German tanks troops was too sharp. The frontline positions suffered heavy losses and were almost unable to withstand the Germany people's attack. If more reinforcements cannot be sent to the front line, please allow them to retreat," the general reported.
"Asshole! The battle has just begun and they are about to retreat. How is this possible? Tell those guys that they can never retreat without my order. As for reinforcements, there are none." General Krapovitch ordered with a black face.
"Yes, General." The general could only reply to the front line.
Russian Guard 2nd Army Corps's front line is facing a fierce attack from German 8th Armored Division. Those iron lumps ignored the Russian army's counterattack and withstood the powerful Russian army's firepower and charged directly towards their position.
Facing the invulnerable tanks like German military, many Russian troops have been frightened, and many people even no longer have the courage to continue fighting.
The war situation became very unfavorable to the Russian army.
"Da da da!"
A tank rushed to the Russian position and began to fire with machine guns.
Intensive machine gun fire raged across the Russian position, and many Russian soldiers fell to the ground after being shot. German military's tank is like wielding the scythe of death, harvesting lives easily.
"Go to hell, damn Germany guy!"
A brave Russian soldier controlled a Heavy Machine Gun and fired wildly at the German military tank. As the shells continued to fall, there was a clanking sound. The dense bullets hit the tank's body armor, making a crisp sound. However, this poses no threat to the tank at all.
