Romanian Eagle - Chapter 734

“Boom, boom, boom!”

　　 Fierce artillery bombarded the top of the mountain, blasting the fortifications on the top of the mountain to the ground, and the defending Greek officers and soldiers trembled under the artillery fire.

　　The continuous shelling made all the defenders on the position struggling to support them, and they were waiting for the shelling to end.

　　 As for the artillery of the defenders, they had been destroyed before. The suppression of the long-range artillery from the air and Romania left the artillery supporting the defenders with no room for survival.

　　 What’s more, what Greece can fight with Romania, whether it is quantity or quality, Romania is a crushing level.

　　 At present, the Greek army’s largest caliber artillery is the legal millimeter howitzer, but the Romanian train gun is not mentioned. Two large-caliber guns alone cannot stop it.

　　 Not to mention in order to compete with the numerous Soviet artillery, Romania has a large number of various artillery, there are nearly a thousand large-caliber guns of 150 mm and above, while Greece has only 85.

　　 There is neither a quantitative advantage nor a caliber advantage. How can I compare it with Romania’s. Not to mention that Romania holds air supremacy, and all kinds of aircraft make the Greek defenders more difficult.

　　As the commander, General Mandiv went to the front in person to observe the details of the shelling.

　　 “Yes, the bombardment has a high rate of destruction to the defenders, and our artillery training has not been pulled down these years.”

　　 Mandiv put down the telescope in his hand and casually praised the artillery.

　　Although there are no large groups of attachés behind him, only a few of them are high-ranking officers. It consists of Lieutenant General Mordelk, the former commander of the Far East Advisory Group, who served as the commander of the 14th Army, Lieutenant General Foktor, who served as the commander of the 6th Army, and Lieutenant General Hoffman. Major General Mizk, commander of the 39th Division in the position.

　　 Such a high-ranking officer came to the front line to check the enemy’s situation, which naturally made people nervous, let alone being hit by enemy shells, it would paralyze the command system of the group army. Therefore, none of them wore their own golden general uniforms, but the same combat uniforms as ordinary soldiers.

　　 After Mandiv finished watching the shelling, he turned his head and asked the Major General Mizick. “How is the morale of the soldiers now?”

　　 Facing the question of General Mandiv, the leader of the military, Major General Mizick, the commander of the 39th Division, naturally knew that he could not conceal the truth from the General, and it was not difficult to say that such an overwhelmingly dominant situation.

　　 “The current strength of the soldiers is pretty good. They generally think that defeating the Greek army is not difficult for us.”

　　 And what Mizick hasn’t said yet is that the officers and soldiers of their 39th Division are generally from the former Bulgaria, and they have an unforgettable hatred for Greece. This point, I believe it is not necessary for him to say, no one in the room knows. Take a look at the troops incorporated into the battle against Greece. Out of its 16 divisions, five of the main sources of soldiers were recruited from the former Bulgarian territory.

　　 And these soldiers from Bulgaria are also willing to attack their original enemies, so morale is very high without mobilizing them.

　　 “Are there any difficulties in the materials?”

　　 “Your Excellency Commander, our teacher has sufficient supplies and no additional supplements are needed, but if you are willing to supply 20 flamethrowers for our teacher, it would be even better.”

　　Mizk’s words amused Mandiv, he looked at Mizk and asked. “Is the flamethrower easy to use?”

　　 “It has a miraculous effect against bunkers, tunnels, and caves.”

　　 After hearing Mizick’s words, Mandiv nodded in agreement. “Well, I will assign a fire-breathing company to you. They will have 18 fire-throwers in a company, which is enough to increase your attacking ability.”

　　 The flamethrower that Mizk attaches so much importance to is the single-soldier flamethrower used by Romania and early this year. Its number is PZ-2 flamethrower.

　　 The research on fire-breathing appliances has been around for a long time, ranging from Greek fires in the Middle Ages to Byzantine firearms, and these have long been submerged in the long river of history.

　　 The modern flamethrower was invented in 1900 by German R·Fidler. Its original intention is to be designed as a kind of exercise equipment, but the German military believes that the invention has practical significance.

　　 In World War I, the use of flamethrowers by the German army shocked the Allied countries very much, and then various countries also developed their own flamethrowers.

　　 As for the flamethrower research in Romania, after World War I, the captured German flamethrower was used for improvement. Only when we entered the 1930s, this improved German flamethrower seemed outdated, and Romania began to develop a new type of flamethrower, and last year Iasi University invented gasoline coagulation technology, which doubled the performance of the new flamethrower. . The time and distance of its eruption have been greatly improved.

　　 This PZ-2 flamethrower, full weight, no fuel: 19.1　kg, fuel filling: 30.1kg. Effective range: 22 meters. Maximum range; 50 meters.

At present, this flamethrower has been equipped with the Greek group army commanded by Mandiv. Each division has 18 individual flamethrower fire-breathing companies, while the group army has two battalions (four companies per battalion). A special armored fire-breathing company modified by the Jackal IV (9 vehicles).

　　 When Admiral Mandiv was talking, the troops of the 39th Division were already gathering positions, and it seemed that they were about to attack.

　　 And this naturally attracted your admiral’s interest, and Mizick on the side took the opportunity to speak. “This is the 3rd regiment of our division. We plan to test the enemy’s defense after the shelling is over.”

　　 After he said this paragraph, Mandiv became interested, and he planned to see the division’s battle.

　　 didn’t let him wait any longer, the assembled troops began to rush towards the position. And once you rush up, you can see other doorways. The officers and soldiers of the 39th Division are scattered very widely, and the distance between each person is basically 4-6 meters, and the officers are still instructing the soldiers to pay attention to the distance.

　　 Regarding Romania’s offensive, the defensive Greek officers and soldiers on the position would naturally not be ignorant. I saw that there was a dense crowd of people on the battlefield where no one could be seen before the bombardment.

　　 It’s just that this time they not only need to pay attention to the offensive on the ground, they also need to pay attention to the overhead. I saw dozens of bombers immediately drilled out of the sky and clouds, and the only remaining air defense firepower on the position immediately opened fire. They tried to use the firepower to deter these bombers from bombing the position.

　　 But how could this be as they wished, and several bombers drilled out of the clouds and pounced on them. This time, the Romanian Air Force prepared a lot for this battle.

　　 And while taking advantage of the ground and air cooperation ~www.mtlnovel.com~ regiment officers and soldiers move faster. When the formation saw the Romanian army in range, the guards on the position opened fire. The ground with loud gunfire was mixed with the sound of sharp mortar shells, blocking the offensive troops.

　　 In the face of this situation, the offensive Romanian army fired the infantry artillery and artillery that had been prepared for it, trying to suppress the firepower of the defending army.

　　 “Boom!”

　　 A heavy machine gun from the defender’s position was blasted into parts.

　　 “Boom!”

　　 A light machine gun that shoots cheerfully was also destroyed.

　　 Under the bombardment of Romania’s dominant artillery, the firepower on the position was rapidly reduced. Seeing that the position was in danger of being breached, only a surge of reinforcements came up.

　　 “Okay, the attack can be stopped. This attack can’t make a position.”

　　 Mandiv waved his hand to stop the offensive, but how could Mizick stop the admiral’s order, so the offensive 3rd regiment retreated.

　　 This battle was very satisfied with Admiral Mandiv, and he had a clear understanding of the Greek army. These Greek troops are not lacking in morale and fighting spirit, but the equipment is too poor, and the technical and tactical level is not enough. He already has a general idea of ​​breaking this line of defense, and then he needs to prepare himself.

　　 And the Major General Mizk in front of him is indeed capable. He can bring the troops that have been formed less than two years to have combat effectiveness. He is a good young man.

　　 Well, compared to Mandiv, Mizick, who is in his forties, is indeed a young man.
