The Third Reich: I Became Emperor

"In addition, the gun has another biggest advantage, which is that it is durable, not affected by terrain or weather, and does not require deliberate maintenance."Major Priss explained while holding up the AK-47

"I think you all know about the weather in Russia. When winter comes, the temperature is terribly low. The reason why we suffered a disastrous defeat in the previous battles was that we suddenly encountered low temperatures, blizzards, and weapons were frozen, and we couldn't shoot."

"But now, you can rest assured that no matter how low the temperature is, this weapon can be fired. It can be said that you will no longer have to worry about the low temperature freezing the weapon and making it impossible to fire."

Hearing this, many German soldiers' eyes lit up. It can be said that this is the biggest advantage.

This is also the reason why August wants to exchange for AK-47. In fact, there is a better choice, that is the STG-44 assault rifle.

However, German weapons all have a problem. They are too delicate. If they are not carefully maintained, they will fall apart at critical moments.

Therefore, in terms of maintenance, August finally decided to replace the front-line troops with AK-47 assault rifles. After all, there must be a reason for the rifle that has been popular for decades.

"This is a bazooka, an upgraded version of the Panzerfaust, but it is much more useful than the Panzerfaust."After introducing the assault rifle, Major Priss began to introduce the bazooka.

The official introduction is that it is an upgraded version of the Panzerfaust, but people who know the goods still recognize that it is an American bazooka, but no one cares, after all, a good weapon is one that can hit the enemy.

"Equipped with armor-piercing shells and high-explosive incendiary shells, it can easily penetrate 125mm steel plates."Major Priss introduced loudly.

"Believe me, with it, you don't have to worry about the tanks of the Russian bear anymore. Even a Tiger tank has a chance to be destroyed in front of it."

"My God, this is more powerful than a howitzer!"Many German soldiers gasped.

"You are absolutely right, it is the cannon in the hands of the infantry."Major Priss said as he carried the bazooka and pulled the trigger at an abandoned T-34 tank in the distance.

The rocket immediately whizzed away with flames and instantly penetrated the T-34 tank.

After the explosion, everyone ran over and saw that a hole as thick as a bucket was blown directly on the flank of the T-34 tank.

Everyone's scalp was numb, especially the tank soldiers, their backs were cold, this thing was too terrifying, it penetrated a tank in a whoosh.

This means that armored soldiers are no longer a safe branch of the army in the future. An ordinary infantryman carrying a rocket launcher can kill a tank.

This thing can not only attack tanks, but also infantry. If it is replaced with high-explosive bombs, the so-called bunker is just like this.

Manstein, who was far away, saw this scene and said excitedly:"This is a powerful anti-tank weapon, much more powerful than the Iron Fist. With it, the armored forces of the Russian bear will be in trouble.""

"Yes, with it, the infantrymen's life will be better, and I heard that this time the logistics department sent 10,000 of them to the front line. Hehe, I can't wait to have a big fight with the Russian bear."The adjutant next to him also agreed.

This time, August sent a lot of weapons to the front line, especially for the infantry, and all the weapons sent were sharp.

In addition, a large number of mortars were sent to various companies on the front line. Seeing these mortars, many German soldiers cheered.

Especially when the platoon leaders of each company saw the mortars, they were so excited that tears were about to flow.

There was no way, the German artillery was still a long way behind the Russian bear, and they, the German soldiers fighting on the front line, often suffered from the Russian bear's artillery fire.

The battle line was too long, the number of troops was too large, and the logistics could not supply them at all, so many companies did not have a mortar, and often encountered the charge of the Russian bear infantry, and could not launch an effective counterattack.

After all, the successive failures caused many heavy weapons to be lost on the front line, and the firepower was greatly weakened. Now suddenly seeing so many mortars, they are naturally very excited.

"I heard that two thousand T-34 tanks and one thousand Tiger tanks were also transported here?"Manstein asked curiously.

He was familiar with the Tiger tank, which could be said to be the king of the battlefield. When the armored forces of the Russian bear encountered it, it was like a mouse seeing a cat. But the T-34 tank surprised him a little.

In fact, he also knew that some troops on the front line were using captured T-34 tanks. In the case of extreme shortage of tanks, the performance of the T-34 tank was still very good, so he acquiesced.

"Yes, they have been added to the various armored regiments and are undergoing run-in training."The adjutant nodded in response.

"When did the Empire start producing enemy weapons? Did they repair the destroyed tanks?"Manstein guessed.

However, he quickly put the idea aside. Anyway, for him, as long as he could strengthen the strength of the Southern Army Group, it would be fine.

PS It's so annoying, there are still two chapters to go. Damn, there are still 20 chapters in the background to urge me to update?? Usually I would have gone to bed at this time! Now I am still staying up late to write!
