The Difference Is Like Between a Dog and a Cow - The Difference Is Like Between a Dog and a Cow chapter 216

215 – Sunset (5) – The Gdanskow Offensive

“Lt. Col. Erwin Ruth.”

“Ah, Lieutenant Colonel George Smith.”

The two officers wearing hard helmets shook hands and laughed. However, it wasn’t just a smile.

“Heh heh heh, is this the only strength in his grip?”

“I can feel that Lieutenant Colonel Erwin’s arms are shaking too.”

As befits a fledgling division that was just created, they were the two most famous and outgoing men in the thriving Uk ranian Armored Forces.

Because he was the spearhead of the armored forces, who were active as tank battalion commanders of the 1st Armored Brigade and the 7th Mobile Brigade, respectively, on the Lunetsk Front.

As soon as they met, they would burn up useless competition and brag about each other’s majors.

“Yes…… It’s not even ironic. It’s the same battlefield this time. Besides, when did you wear the lieutenant colonel again?”

“Didn’t I play a little bit last time in Lunetsk?”

“Ha! The vanguard has always been our 1st Armored Division, so unfortunately this time there will be no major. You would be surprised to know how hard-working our soldiers are.”

“Hmm, is that so? We do not speak. I will show you the results.”

Pachichik!

Sparks flew from their eyes looking at each other. It was not an empty word, but a purple spark made of real magic.

The two men soon let go of their bluish hands from gripping too tightly, then turned and headed for their respective units.

Who will take out the enemy general first…… It’s a competition.

Skilled soldiers trained on the Lunetsk front and proven Dnur ? The 767th Tank Battalion under the 1st Armored Division of Erwin Ruth, composed of Deusain tanks.

The 115th Tank Battalion under the 2nd Armored Division specialized in high-speed mobile operations by receiving Sherry, a new cavalry tank newly deployed on the frontline.

Soldiers with high aggression began to actively respond to the honorable duel of the two armored officers, whose hearts are magnificent just by looking at them.

In the end, the back is bursting in the middle.

“What the f*ck, don’t all the armored division guys know how to do it properly!?”

It was Uk ran’s logistics supply command that had to handle all the overwhelming maintenance requirements.

***

The tactical objective of the Uk ranian army was simple. Polania rear stability. Currently, most of the Republic’s main forces are located on the border with the Soviet Empire.

It was a situation where they were being pushed down, losing the ability to maintain even the occupied territory they had secured by pushing up.

If we took more troops from here, Polania would surely collapse without being able to withstand the enemies that truly flocked from the north and south.

He asked Uk ran to exclude Reinhardt, who had attacked from the south.

And the best way to stabilize that back is…….

Kurrr!!

“Enemy, many enemy tanks have been spotted!”

“Denurnya of Polania?”

“No! It looks completely different! Approaching at 11 o’clock at high speed!”

“This is Uk ran! Uk ranian tanks have arrived!!”

“Left! What are our armored units on the left doing?!”

“Full text from the 535th Armored Battalion! We are engaged with enemy armored forces that have bypassed us!”

“An armored unit appeared there too!?”

It was a tentacle for the area occupied by the Reinhardt Airborne Forces.

Tentacles Meta.

It was not a separately named tactic, but it meant simultaneous offensives on the front line and deploying troops as if cephalopods stretched out their tentacles.

In fact, on the tactical map of the troops in charge of the main attack, there were several arrows drawn in curves, like tentacles extending, leading to the territory of Polania.

Since Enoch Levandel first named it the ‘tentacle strategy’, everyone just called it the tentacle strategy.

As the area of the front line to be defended expands, the dispersion of troops and supplies naturally occurs as a defender.

As soon as Operation Dawn of Gdankow began, the Uk ranian armored units, which started high-speed maneuvers, began to trample the defense line of the Reinhardt Airborne Forces armed with only ‘Al infantry soldiers’ and ‘Tank Cats with light tank skins’. Did.

In particular, the Uk ranian new tank ‘Sherry’, which boasts strong mobility, showed tremendous activity.

Excellent maneuverability, reaching speeds of up to 30 km/h even on rough terrain. By using a magic composite engine, it has excellent holding power compared to other countries’ high-speed tanks.

Of course, as it was in the category of ‘cavalry tank’, its defensive power was such that it could easily be pierced by the Bertrand T type of the Soviet Empire or the Reinhardt’s Panzer II.

Not only was limited defense possible through the hard-kill magic barrier of Debra Bennett, the genius of the century born by the Uk ranian Ministry of Technology Research and Education.

The paper armor of the airborne tank operated by Reinhardt’s Kaiser Jaeger was a tank that could literally be torn apart using the 2-pounder gun of the United Kingdom of Britain.

Thump thump!

Peeing! Kang!

At the appearance of a tank out of nowhere, he hurriedly dragged the airborne tank VK Leopard Puma, one of Kaiser Yeager’s most powerful firepower.

As a reconnaissance light tank, the Puma’s 20mm cannon was 2% insufficient to penetrate the Sherry’s frontal armor.

“It’s okay! I made it through!”

“Gunner, shoot enemy armored vehicles from the front 360 degrees!!

“Shoot!!”

Puong!

The elongated 2-pounder barrel spits out deafening blasts, and at the same time, flames shoot out of the cougar’s body.

No one escaped from the roaring steel coffin.

“Damage! Avoid!”

“Anti-tank soldiers!! Call the anti-tank soldiers!!”

“There are no anti-tank field guns!”

“Damn it, bring whatever you have captured!!”

However, Reinhalt was not helpless. They halted the advance of some cavalry units using mobile field artillery captured from Polania.

Utilizing the Puma, which was inferior in all respects, to 100%, they fought hard by attacking and destroying Sherry’s side and rear.

Reinhalt was also Reinhalt.

It was qualitatively different from the Soviet Empire in the first place.

But that kind of resistance didn’t last long.

The troops of the 1st Armored and 2nd Armored, sharpened swords at the Uk ranian Expeditionary Force Headquarters, penetrated deep into enemy lines and blocked Kaiser Jaeger’s mutual cooperation in advance.

In just three days after the operation was posted, it was successful in driving the Reinhardt Airborne Forces into the ‘Siege Elimination Line’.

In the end, the airborne troops are troops that fall behind the enemy and create disturbance. To be precise, no matter how aggressively you set the doctrine and give them excellent equipment.

It was said that the limits of firepower inherently possessed could not be overcome.

Even though the Uk ranians had quite a bit of fun with the airborne troops during the interwar period, there was a reason they only operated one airborne division in the entire army.

The first performance in Polania was not just for the cavalry.

A storm-like offensive is raging in all directions.

A group of soldiers approached the field headquarters of the Kaiser Yeager 9th Brigade in a small village in central Polania.

Parts─. As a purple flash flickers through the trees, the two sentries who were on guard in the trench collapse trembling.

“Inrush.”

“Confirmed.”

True hunters start hunting in the dark night.

Since everyone was made up of level 3 or higher mages, there was no need to fire a gunshot.

As soon as the barracks were thoroughly attacked using only purple magic, Reinhardt’s soldiers, who had fallen asleep unaware of the long battle, were enveloped in purple lightning and enjoyed a truly comfortable rest.

“Who are you there?”

“Colonel Claude Lane.”

“Ah…… Loyalty!”

I hope the Reinhardt sentry sneaks past the relaxed voice.

By the time the sentry realized that there were only two colonels in the brigade, the commander of Buyeo and the chief of staff, the dagger had already been stabbed in his throat.

“Big, big… ….”

“Shh.”

Claude Lane was a professional at night infiltration.

Because I preferred this kind of stealthy combat to the kind of combat where I threw flashy flames, supported artillery fire, and ran into trenches using advancing tanks as torches.

Uk ranian Special Operations Command 5th Special Task Force.

The leader, Colonel Claude Lane, and his subordinates completed the given mission without making a single mistake.

When the morning dawned and the villagers who had been detained by Reinhardt entered the brigade headquarters.

“What the hell happened all night…… !!”

“Old man! Four, no one is alive!”

It was immediately after all of the headquarters staff, which numbered more than 100, were massacred.

***

The news that Uk ran had dispatched an expeditionary force to rescue Polania quickly reached the Reinhardt leadership.

In the end, it had to be like this.

Erich Hindenburg, Chancellor of the Empire, who had been entrusted with the full power of war by Franz Friedrich Wilhelm I, let out a sigh.

I tried to prevent collisions as much as possible.

In the end, it seems that Uk ran decided to take Polania’s hand, not Reinhalt’s.

“Don’t worry, Prime Minister. We, Reinhardt’s men, are ready to trample on our opponents with our boots, whether they are Polanias or Uk ranians!”

However, unlike the Prime Minister, who was worried first, Reinhalt’s generals, who had an overwhelming military record in the Republic of Polania, had their shoulders elevated.

And such carelessness always leads to fatal mistakes.

I always had to prepare for the worst so I could act appropriately when the situation struck.

Most of them didn’t.

Insurgent forces in Uk ran.

Soviet Empire too.

Republic of Polania too.

And even the Reinhalt Empire!

It was scary to hear that the Airborne Forces, which had been put into central Polania and were pressuring the northern and southern regions at the same time, were surrounded.

Another sad news has arrived in a hurry from Gdanskow.

[The flank of the 2nd Corps, which was advancing through Gdankov, broke through. Urgent assistance needed]

[The enemy force is identified as the 87th Mixed Division, currently under fierce attack by the Allied Forces of Polania and Uk ran.]

The sword of a hero from a foreign country who once shared his will was finally pointed at the Empire.
