Romanian Eagle

A G42 machine gun was roaring in a window of the house, and the shooter of the machine gun was operating it to suppress the attacking Polish soldiers. His excellent shooting skills turned his machine gun into a god of death, harvesting those Polish soldiers who didn't hide.

Here several buildings that are very close to each other form a small-scale building group, and Martin Lehmann is holding soldiers here.

In the face of the Polish army's desperate offensive regardless of casualties, the officers and soldiers of the 3rd Armored Division who were sticking to it were a little caught off guard. It took many positions one after another, and half of the town was captured by it.

If Martin Lyman hadn't acted decisively and used armored vehicles to counterattack them and stabilized their pace, they would have been kicked out of the town. And in return, their armored vehicles were exhausted.

No way, armored vehicles lacking infantry protection are still too fragile. In fact, Martin Lehmann would not have done this if the situation was very critical at the time. You must know that when they are learning the tactics of using armor, the first thing the instructor said is that the armored vehicle must not leave the protection of the infantry during combat.

After the loss of the armored vehicle, Martin Lehmann could only lead the soldiers to stand by for help. And that Barber was in a similar situation to himself. Under the enemy's life-threatening offensive, he suffered more casualties than himself. He is currently guarding a larger building complex to the west of him. These two building complexes are currently the only two positions of the Third Armored Division in the small town of Izpica.

Martin Lyman is in a house, holding a telescope to observe the enemy.

"Corp. Maloof, take your men to intercept the detouring enemy on the right."

Putting down the telescope in his hand, Martin Lyman responded to the latest enemy situation he just observed.

"Yes, Captain."

After the non-commissioned officer named Maloof replied, he immediately put down the gun in his hand and shouted. "Third class, come with me, let's deal with those sneaky mice."

Then the four soldiers stopped firing and followed Maloof's footsteps to the right. Then there was a burst of gunfire on the right side, and if you listen carefully, you can tell that the G33 semi-automatic rifle rang to the end. It seems that the enemy on the flank was repelled.

On the Polish position, General Felipots, who was in charge of the battle, looked at the position that could not be captured for a long time, and his heart showed a trace of anxiety.

In fact, after destroying the armored vehicles of the defenders, his cavalry brigade should be evacuated. The defenders who lacked armored vehicles could not even see their own horse buttocks, let alone the purpose of delaying. It's just that he didn't want to think about the number of casualties, which made him unwilling. Nearly a thousand casualties, which made him retreat.

And he, as Poland's most elite cavalry brigade, attacked a Romanian reinforcement battalion defender,

The casualties were so great, but nothing was gained. If you retreat like this, it will hurt the morale of your cavalry brigade officers and soldiers too much.

So after thinking about it, Felipots decided to annihilate the defenders before leaving. All it took was that the Polish army's offensive still did not stop, but more violent moves. The defenders were now pinned to only two positions, and they could be taken down with just a few more attacks.

Less than three kilometers away from the small town of Izpica, a line of armored troops was galloping down the road. They are reinforcements for Izpica. The reinforcements consisting of the second and third battalions of the armored regiment and most of the mechanized infantry regiment are already close at hand. Moreover, they could hear the exchange of fire in the town battle.

Colonel Durscu, who was in charge of the unit, gave the order immediately. "Immediately start the battle formation and ask for our troops."

Following his order, the tanks immediately dispersed and the soldiers also got out and rushed towards Izpica.

...

"What did you say, enemy reinforcements are coming?"

After hearing the report of the cavalry scout in front of him, Felipots couldn't help but ask again in a loud voice.

"Yes, brigade commander, we observed that the enemy's armored units were about to arrive, so we dared to report back immediately."

After hearing the reconnaissance cavalry confirm again, Felipots knew that he had no chance to take down the defender's position, and now his troops might be left behind, so he immediately ordered. "Have the troops stop attacking and all prepare to retreat. Also, give the order to Major Philecumo to have his anti-tank guns ready to cover our evacuation."

Yes, Felipe Potts is also prepared for this. He concentrated the brigade's anti-tank guns, intending to buy time for his retreat.

Therefore, in the eyes of Martin Lehmann and others, the Polish soldiers who were not ready to attack one moment ago are now hurriedly evacuating the next moment.

"What happened to these Polish troops?"

A guard soldier asked curiously.

Martin Lyman put down the burden in his heart and answered him. "It should be our reinforcements."

And his words immediately detonated everyone, only to see everyone shouting loudly. "The reinforcements are here, our reinforcements are here."

They were not disappointed. A few minutes later, a large number of tanks and armored vehicles appeared in front of them. The two wings were R10 light tanks. They were responsible for sweeping the enemy on both sides and detecting the enemy's situation. In the middle is the R20 tank. As the backbone of the Romanian armored forces, they are responsible for siege and anti-armor operations.

In the face of the newly emerging Romanian armored forces, the officers and soldiers of the Polish 3rd Cavalry Brigade immediately mounted their horses and wanted to evacuate.

But will Colonel Durscu let them go?

I saw him pick up the microphone in the command car. "Now I order to attack the enemy immediately, and make sure not to let any enemy go."

Following his order, the speed of the tank accelerated, and the tank opened fire when it was aimed at the enemy.

The violent explosion caused disaster to the surrounding cavalry. Shrapnel and shock waves caused many cavalry to fall off their horses, and the horses were frightened and fled in all directions, which further aggravated the chaos of the scene.

Facing the unscrupulous attack of enemy tanks, Felipots could only send out all the remaining tanks in his hand, hoping to slow the enemy's footsteps. Of course, he also knew that his tank was no match for the enemy's R20, so he used the armored troops to deal with the R10 tanks on both wings, at least this tank could be destroyed.

As for the R20 tank, more can only expect to use its own tank more, attract the attention of the R20, and then use the 37mm anti-tank arranged by itself to give it a heavy blow from the flank.

That's right, this is the only way that General Felipots came up with, because the 37mm anti-tank gun he is equipped with cannot penetrate the armor of the R20 frontally, and he can only find a way to turn it and then fire.

But maybe this is just the expectation of General Felipots, because the 50mm 42 times tank gun equipped by the R10 light tank still has an absolute advantage over the current Polish imitation Jackal tank. Moreover, the Polish armored forces, which do not even have a numerical advantage, can fight against them.

I saw that there was no reinforcement of the R20 in the middle, and the R10 tank greeted it. It was equipped with a 50mm tank gun and was repeatedly named, and all its 7TP tanks were destroyed. That's right, the R10 tanks give priority to solving these thin-skinned tanks. Because of this distance, they cannot penetrate both sides, so they can only use 7TP to blow air.

After entering the effective range, the R10 focused fire on the only few TPL tanks. After a set fire, the third division turned all TPL tanks into scrap metal at the cost of destroying one and slightly injuring one.

In the face of the failure of the armored forces to achieve their goals, General Felipots can't take care of them now, because the armored forces are closer to his own troops.

They not only used howitzers to bombard their own cavalry, but also used vehicle-mounted machine guns to continuously shoot the evacuated cavalry. From time to time, some people were hit and fell off their horses.

It is also doomed that four legs can't run on wheels.

I felt that it would not be possible to continue like this. Before the enemy could enter the effective range of the anti-tank position, my cavalry would collapse. General Felipots couldn't care less and ordered directly. "Let the anti-tank positions fire."

In the face of the general's orders, Major Philekemo, who was in charge of commanding the anti-tank guns, fought for strength. "But General, our anti-tank guns have to wait until the enemy tanks are 300 meters in before they can fire. Above that distance, it's impossible to penetrate them."

It's just that his request was not taken seriously, and General Felipots said to him viciously. "Now, now, now, fire me."

Under the command of the general, the 37mm anti-tank gun on the anti-tank position immediately fired violently at the R20 tank four or five hundred meters away from him. They knew that if they opened fire, they would be targeted by enemy tanks.

The R20 tank group, which was firing on the cavalry, immediately felt the difference. The sound of the ping-pong-pong sounded, what it meant, they knew very well.

After some observation, they discovered the anti-tank position hiding behind the bushes of the farmland. Needless to say, the priority to solve these positions becomes the priority choice.

"Boom" an explosion caused an anti-tank gun on the position to be destroyed, and the Polish officers and soldiers operating the anti-tank fell to the ground without making a sound.

This is just the beginning. As the anti-tank gun was destroyed, the discovered anti-tank gun positions were destroyed one after another.

The sacrifices of the Polish officers and soldiers in these anti-tank positions did delay the pace of the armored forces, and temporarily separated the officers and soldiers of the 3rd Cavalry Brigade from the battle.

It's just that Colonel Durscu, who observed all this, showed a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth. "After the order to destroy the enemy anti-tank positions, immediately pursue the pursuit."

It's a joke to want to run past your own armored vehicle on a four-legged horse.

It was obvious that Colonel Durscu would not spare the fleeing cavalry brigade. There is nothing he likes more than an enemy army that lacks anti-armor means.

And unless these cavalrymen do not gather together, they will not be able to escape. However, he needed to send a telegram to the division commander, informing him of the outcome of the battle.

I saw him call the communications staff. "Send a telegram to the division commander, informing me that our division has defeated the enemy's 3rd Cavalry Brigade. In order to avoid a threat to our supply line, I plan to annihilate the enemy and continue to attack Lublin."
