Imperial Overlord

As a soldier, watching your brother get knocked down by enemy bullets and you can't do anything about it is really not a good feeling.

Leaning in a temporarily built paratrooper pit next to the road, the SS soldiers of the 46th Division saw with their own eyes an anti-tank group attacking and fell under the dense fire of the enemy.

German soldiers worked hard to cover their comrades with machine guns and submachine guns, but it became more and more difficult and **** to sneak attack on enemy tanks.

After killing three British tanks effortlessly, it was difficult for the German infantry to continue to find a very comfortable angle to shoot at the advancing British tanks.

"The machine guns of the 2nd platoon have been firing for too long! Let them move! Hurry up!" Watching a makeshift machine gun bunker in his front line constantly spraying flames, a German officer ordered worriedly.

Before his order was conveyed, the machine gun position that was continuously strafing the British soldiers was hit by a shell from a tank.

The huge explosion lifted the surrounding sand and a broken machine gun. Everything was smashed by shells and looked horrible.

After all, it was flesh and blood. After all, it was just a temporary machine gun position. These things could not withstand the heavy and heavy artillery shells, and could not withstand the destructive force of 75mm caliber artillery shells.

Although the 75mm caliber howitzer equipped on the body of the M3lee tank produced by the United States is not very easy to use against tanks, it can be used to fight infantry bunkers.

Hit by this cannon, most of the temporary German positions were directly destroyed. The soldiers inside cannot be spared, and even those around them will be affected.

A German soldier jumped out of the trench, charged with a cluster grenade towards a British tank not far away, and was knocked to the ground by a bullet from a distance, blood splattered everywhere.

"Let the anti-tank team look for opportunities on the right side! The entire line of defense will collapse at this rate!" The German officer frowned, pointing to the position not far ahead and instructed.

"Tutu! Tutu!" Just as he gave the order, another machine gun position opened fire from the flank, sweeping down a few British soldiers following the tank.

This position opened fire very suddenly, disrupting the rhythm of the British soldiers' attack. Everyone was lying on the ground, waiting for the tanks to take out the German machine gun positions in front of them.

At this moment, another German soldier jumped up, holding a bundle of cluster grenades, strode towards the British M3lee tank that was adjusting its orientation.

Amidst the hail of bullets, he ran with the grenade, step by step, until he fell next to the British tank using inertia.

Then, he pulled the fuse cord behind the grenade handle and tucked the bundled cluster grenade into the tumbling track.

For the rest of the time, he could only pray and escape. Taking a deep breath, the SS soldier began to roll on the ground, leaving the blast as quickly as possible.

It's a pity that the fuse of the grenade didn't give him much time, and just a few seconds after he climbed out, a huge explosion suddenly came.

Don't think that the infantry crawling near the tanks to destroy these big steel guys is the only means used by the backward Asian theaters.

In fact, Germany has been equipped with various magnetic anti-tank grenades, as well as some bizarre anti-tank weapons. Most of these weapons are used when they are a few meters away from enemy tanks...

According to historical data, the current five major streams of the United Nations... No, they are the infantry of the five permanent members, and they all have personal experience of climbing up to the side of tanks to blow up enemy tanks.

The difference is that the American soldiers were forced to bomb the German super tanks that no one could beat, while the German soldiers were forced to bomb too many Soviet tanks that could not be beaten...

"Boom!" With a loud noise, the black clouds churned and rose, the tracks of the British M3lee tank broke, and the road wheels rolled out a long way.

The tank was paralyzed there, and then the engine started to smoke. Huge vibrations would damage various internal parts, and the guns on the front of the tank were hanging down.

At this moment, it was the turn of the British tank crew to be depressed. After they recovered from the huge shock, they had to think about how they were going to leave this huge steel coffin.

There are 6 crew members in the M3lee tank, one more than the most common 5-man crew of the German army. This extra person did not relieve the pressure of the shortage of people in the car because they had to operate another artillery piece.

Now, a more serious problem is coming, even if it is to escape, one more person must run together...

In the hail of bullets from the German army, the British tank soldiers lifted the hatches above their heads and began their escape.

Of course, the nearby British soldiers, as well as the tanks that were constantly strafing, gave these British tank soldiers the greatest cover.

Looking out of his cabin door, the British commander saw the body of a German SS soldier lying not far away.

The soldier could not tell his age because his face was covered in blood. One of the corpse's legs was gone, but the other leg could still make out his tallness.

I didn't have time to savor it, just glanced at it briefly, the British commander put his hands on his body and got out of his own hatch.

He could even feel a bullet flying past him, so frightened that he quickly jumped off the tank and rolled twice to stabilize his body.

Of course, there are also unlucky pilots who just stuck their heads out of their hatches, were hit in the forehead by a flying bullet, and then fell back into the wreckage of the tank.

The person who knows himself best is often the enemy on the opposite side. From the beginning of the attack, the British soldiers felt the pressure of the mountain-like pressure brought by the German army on the opposite side.

Although the opponent is slowly retreating under the pressure of tanks, although the hasty construction of the opponent's defense line is not enough to stop the British attack.

But the stubborn fighting power shown by the other side is obviously not a soldier from a British servant country like India, which is understandable.

"Hello? Hello? General Montgomery? Commander... We have done our best, but the enemy's defense line is still there! They are still holding on near the road." On the phone, the commander of the British 7th Armored Division complained to Montgomery .

He has already tried to attack from the side and detour to further places to test, but these efforts have failed in the end, and the German defense line is still as stable as Mount Tai.

Hundreds of German soldiers' bodies were lying on the ground, but these German soldiers still had no intention of retreating.

The enemy still stuck to their line of defense, destroying the precious British tanks one by one.

"In any case, your department must penetrate the German defense line as soon as possible... If the time is delayed, the German tanks may cross the river!" Montgomery ordered on the phone, tangled.

Originally, he thought that the Germans crossing the river were just some infantry with little combat effectiveness at all. As long as he was willing to throw himself into the tank, the opponent's attack would soon be thwarted.

But now it seems that the combat effectiveness of the German infantry cannot be underestimated, and it can actually resist the attack of the British 7th Armored Division.

Just being able to let a temporarily constructed line of defense hold the British tank troops for an hour, Rommel's armored troops, is enough to cross the river to participate in the war.

Neither Auchinleck nor Montgomery expected that their troops were blocked along the road by an infantry.

"It's too late, the 7th Armored Division must withdraw, we don't need to work hard for a line of defense!" Auchinleck reminded loudly not far behind Montgomery.

The voice of his reminder was also heard clearly by the commander of the 7th Armored Division on the other side of the phone. Before the commander of the Land 7 Armored Division could breathe a sigh of relief, Montgomery's voice came over.

I only heard him say: "Keep on attacking! If you can't break through the enemy's line of defense within a quarter of an hour, then retreat!"

Speaking of this, Montgomery turned his attention to the map, the area marked with the German troop numbers.

"The 46th Infantry Division of the SS... Really a fierce enough unit..." Unconsciously, Montgomery whispered.

Although the voice was not loud, Auchinleck could still hear Montgomery's envy. Most of the troops in the hands are made up of Indians. To be honest, it is not much better than the Italians in the hands.

In 1940, the SS troops were not known to the world for their outstanding record~www.wuxiaspot.com~ You must know that when the Wehrmacht swept through France, the Adolf Hitler Guard Flag Division was only a regiment level. 's troops.

Therefore, it can be said that in North Africa, the 46th SS Division took the lead in attracting the attention of the enemy with blood. It is precisely because of the battle of the Eastern East Road that the SS began to truly prove its worth in the war.

Unfortunately, the process by which a unit proves its worth is by the bloodshed of its soldiers.

One by one SS soldiers fell in a pool of blood, building a steel wall with their own flesh and blood near the Eastern Highway.

Behind the fallen soldiers, more soldiers shot frantically with their weapons. The blood stained the sand and soil, and it also stimulated the bloodthirsty instinct of people. At this point in the battle, neither side seemed willing to give up easily.

In the end, it was the SS troops that took the initiative to retreat because of the heavy casualties. The British tanks crossed the German defense line full of corpses, and finally began to plan to continue their attack near the river beach.

Under the feet of the British soldiers, just near the road positions abandoned by the Germans, there are more than 400 corpses of German soldiers...
