Chapter 322 Airborne Tanks
"Boom...boom..."
At least eighty tanks have fired fire. The tanks without fire may be because of sight, or the tanks in front are blocked, and there is no chance to fire. These tanks without fire will never leave the formation and then rushed to the front of the attack cluster to fire. Germany's serious military discipline is not a vegetarian, and the Germans' rigorous personality cannot have such a lack of military discipline.
Countless shells hit the British truck running, and were immediately torn into pieces by a violent explosion. How many people on the truck could survive, and those who were missing were also the ones who were missing their arms and legs. They were not confused and howled on the ground. I hope that their companions could help him. However, when the truck behind saw a black German tank rushing towards them, they dared to stay there, so they quickly reversed and prepared to escape.
A long convoy was driving. The emergency stop just now caused some rear-end collision. The sudden artillery bombardment made the entire convoy panic. Now the road was blocked. This was more than 10,000 British troops. After all, it was boundless. Seeing that they could not escape, British commanders began to command their soldiers to get out of the car and equip them to resist. Some British troops even tried to open the cannons hanging behind the truck. Unfortunately, German tanks soon rushed into the British convoy, firing and firing wantonly.
"Boom...boom...boom...dada...dada..."
Countless trucks were hit, ignited fires, or turned into debris, and the cannons had no chance to unfold. As for the British infantry who got out in a hurry, they only had a rifle in their hands and several grenades on their waists. In this case, they could do nothing about how they could do the German tank No. 3.
Countless bullets hit the speeding tank No. 3, and could only splash a little spark. In exchange for a jingle sound. German tanks responded to the British army with artillery shells and mg42 machine gun bullets.
"Puchi...Puchi...Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
This kind of soldiers could only watch themselves being torn into pieces by the German tanks and then crushed into meat sauce by the tanks. A few soldiers did not collapse. One British army fled, leading ten British troops to escape. Even the official army could not stop the British army's collapse. But can the British army run away with their legs when facing the German tanks? Of course, the answer is no...
"We surrender, don't fight, we surrender..."
The British army in front began to surrender, the scene was chaotic, and the British army behind were fleeing, and Milu had to pursue them immediately. Block them and hold them for thirty minutes. When the subsequent paratroopers arrived, they could completely annihilate these British troops. If these British troops were let go, it would definitely increase the difficulty of the Fifteenth Armored Army to capture the next target.
As for these British prisoners in front, Milu put more than 500 paratroopers who followed him in charge. He immediately ordered all the tanks to leave the road and penetrated forward. The collapsed infantry of the British army had completely lost order and fled to the airport. Because there were British tanks at the airport, unfortunately it was about 30 kilometers away from the airport of Malta Island, and a fully armed soldier wanted to run 30 kilometers. That was absolutely unrealistic.
"Boom...boom...boom...dada...dada..."
Milu's Tucker assault group ran wildly in the somewhat rugged wilderness, occasionally hitting a few guns and firing a few bullets at the British army that were desperately running away. This made the British army even more panic and quickly threw away the rifles in their hands to relieve their burdens, so that they could escape faster.
The British army ran wildly on the road, and the tanks of the Fifteenth Panzer Army were speeding on both sides of the road. The roaring tanks were filled with dust. The rolling forward shapes, and occasionally a few shells fell into the running British army. Even if the British commander wanted to stop the collapsed British army, it was impossible. The defeat was like a mountain, which was not something that people could stop. At this time, the British army's panic spread throughout the army. Such a huge tank attack group appeared on the island of Malta, which was unexpected by the British commander. The British army was no longer a group of defeated soldiers with no command, no order, and no weapons. Waiting for them could only be annihilated or surrendered.
Li Mo's first step was to achieve his goal. He was unwilling to let his airborne troops fall into the trap of the British army. The distance of more than 30 kilometers was not much for tanks. He arrived with just one charge. Although Li Mo's armored paratrooper division was equipped with only No. 3 light tanks, the thickest part of the front armor was only more than 40 mm, and he couldn't even withstand the 37 mm anti-tank gun. Unfortunately, the British army marching had no chance to unfold the cannon and was defeated.
At 6:30: At this time, it was already bright, the sky was clear, and occasionally a few white clouds floated by. The second wave of the 15th Armored Army began to take off. The roar of the three airports in Sicily was deafening, and each airport reached 300 Junker transport aircraft. During World War II, "Junker" was still a very good aircraft, with a range of only 1,600 kilometers and a combat radius of only 800 kilometers.
As three red signal flares took off, hundreds of "Aunt Junker" roared into the air, one by one, "Aunt Junker" penetrated into the sky like a crow, and hundreds of planes took off at the same time. The momentum was earth-shaking. The vibrations came from the air, and even the tea in the command tower was shaking unconsciously. The various insects in the grass in the airport were panicked and scrambled everywhere, hoping to find a safe place to hide.
"Buzz...buzz..."
The dark "Aunt Junker" aircraft group was formed in the air. Because three airports took off at the same time, the three airports were also far and near from Malta Island. In order to avoid the airborne group being too dense during airborne, the aircraft group of each airport was organized into a group, so there was also an order for airborne landing. The first one arrived first, and the later ones were airborne before airborne landing.
...
At the front command of the 15th Panzer Army in Sicily, Li Mo and Rommel finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the information from the communications officer. The Armored Paratrooper Division of the 15th Panzer Army was successfully airborne and did not encounter any attack of any scale. As long as the armored paratroopers landed smoothly, Li Mo and Rommel believed that their armored assault group could definitely consolidate the airborne field. This battle should be said to have been won, and at least the first step was successful.
"Report, Commander Milu called."
"read."
"Report to the commander, my armored paratrooper assault group has defeated a British military advisor who came to attack. He is now pursuing the 15th Armored Group Army Wansheng."
"Okay, Milu did a good job, I want to ask for me."
Li Mo couldn't help but be overjoyed. It seemed that his plan was going well. Li Mo was not so happy that he was not so forgetful. Li Mo savored a tea and then asked Rommel who was dazed in front of the map.
"My commander, are our six-barrel rocket launchers ready?"
"Don't worry, my deputy commander, I have prepared a rocket launcher regiment. When the first wave of Ju89 comes back, we can immediately transfer our rocket launcher to support. As long as our airborne point is safe, I can guarantee that the British will die.
