Chapter 1516 Germany's Response Plan

"Our army suffered losses in front of Kalinin." In the wolf's lair, Cyric, who was immersed in the joy of getting a pair of twins, received such a message.

This made Cyric frowned immediately: "What's going on?"

All along, the German army has been invincible and invincible. Although the Soviets resisted stubbornly, in front of the German army, they seemed to be like a man's arm.

Now, the German army actually suffered losses.

The losses were not huge, only a little over twenty tanks were lost, but it was a bad sign.

"First of all, we found some soldiers wearing American uniforms in the Kalinin garrison." Keitel said: "There are indications that the Americans directly sent troops to reinforce the Soviet Union."

The U.S. military actually appeared in the Soviet camp? Cyric immediately knew that the situation had changed a lot. In history, although the Allied camp was formed, the Americans made up their minds to let the Soviets consume Germany's strength, so the Americans did not directly reinforce the Soviet Union.

Americans are planning to pick fruit, how can they let their own people waste it in vain.

But now it's different, actually sent troops directly?

"But these reinforcements are short and yellow-skinned people. The specifics depend on the report of the intelligence department." Keitel continued.

Short in stature, yellow-skinned, and quite brave in fighting, at this moment, Cyric thought of something: "So the Americans sent the Nissi here."

This corresponds to the fact that historically, these Nissi are quite unpopular, and Americans are so hostile to them that Nisi need to show their loyalty to the United States with their huge sacrifices.

However, they were sent to Europe before, but now they are sent directly to Moscow.

The reinforcements of the Americans are limited. After all, the total number of Nissi is only about 100,000, and there are already many troops who can send more than 10,000 troops.

Now, Cyric was concerned about the other side.

"How did our tanks get lost?"

"According to reports from the front, these reinforcements have a new type of weapon in their hands, shoulder-fired, tail fire, silent, and they are powerful enough to penetrate the front of our unarmored Panther 3 tanks. Armor."

Putting all these together, the answer is almost ready to come out.

"It seems that the American bazooka came out." Cyric said.

Although no specific weapons have been seen, the latest anti-tank weapons of the Soviets were not captured in the first battle, but with these narratives alone, Cyric could guess what.

We have just finalized the individual rocket launchers and gradually distributed them to our troops. During this period, the Americans have also successfully developed them. After all, this thing is a real individual anti-tank weapon that has appeared in history.

This simple and powerful anti-tank weapon, once equipped in the hands of the infantry, will bring about a new change. In the future, the charge of German tanks will face one more risk.

Since Germany has developed its own bazooka, everyone present is aware of the series of changes that this weapon will bring once it is applied to the battlefield.

"Our tank charging tactics need to be improved. When charging, we must equip more infantry to guard the side." Scherner said: "This will increase the danger of our infantry."

After all, they are going to charge. On the enemy's position on the opposite side, a large number of machine guns will pose a great threat to them. If they arrange more infantry to charge, the infantry will suffer greater losses.

"We haven't got the specific captured equipment yet, we can study the penetration ability of this weapon, and then increase our armor protection, especially the armored troops of the Northern Route Army, most of them do not wear additional armor , if an additional layer of armor is added, it may block this weapon," Scherner continued.

What should I do when my own tank is penetrated? The usual idea is to thicken the armor! Anyway, now Germany has matured the first generation of ceramic armor, just hang it outside.

"This weapon can not only hit our front, but it is small and flexible when carried by a single soldier, so it can also hit the side and the back. We simply increase our armor and cannot achieve the goal." Keitel said on the side.

On the tank, the thickness is different in different places. The front hull and turret are the thickest. Now the situation is that the opponent can penetrate his own Panther 3 tank frontally. In this way, even if the armor is thickened, the sides and back will not be able to carry it. Live, you know, this is different from tank battles. This is a personal weapon. Those infantrymen with bazooka on their shoulders are quite flexible, and can even ambush to the front. After the German tanks push past, they will strike from behind.

There is no doubt that as long as they are not afraid of death, they can adopt such tactics and exchange one life for a tank. It is entirely possible.

"Yeah, this kind of individual weapon is the biggest threat to tanks." Cyric said: "However, we still have a way to deal with it."

It is necessary to add additional armor to all Panther 3 tanks and increase their protection capabilities. The loss of the German tanks this time shows that the protection capabilities of our tanks have begun to weaken.

At the same time, the production of tanks such as the Black Panther 3 has been scarce. Now the main tank production of our own is the Tiger type, and the next-generation King Tiger tank has already entered the pre-research, and many technologies have been successful. As long as the external threats continue If it increases, it can be transferred to the production of Tiger King at any time.

However, the size of the troops is huge, and it is impossible to change all of them. These old tanks must also exert their power. Moreover, there are a large number of infantry fighting vehicles. When patrolling the city, they may be attacked by bazooka, so, This kind of thing has to be taken out in advance.

In Cyric's mind, there are a lot of wild ideas, but each of them will eventually become a reality, confirming the wise vision of the leader of Cyric.

Now, with the words of the head of Cyric, he immediately made everyone around him prick up their ears, and Scherner couldn't suppress his inner excitement, and immediately asked, "What is that?"

"Grid armor," Cyric said.

Cyric from the later generations, of course, knows how to deal with the rocket launcher. The bazooka is simple and effective, and the means to fight it are equally simple and effective. Look at the infantry fighting vehicles of the later generations, almost every one of them is like a fence outside.
