Chapter 416 It moved!
Many of them saw with their own eyes that the soldier holding the shield was torn apart like paper, the shield in his hand was like this, and the body hiding behind the shield was like this.
Even the shield is like this, let alone the exquisite armor they have always been proud of. No one who is attacked can survive.
Even so, in the glory of a knight and a belief in victory, these soldiers still rushed towards Eugen's tank position without hesitation, and used their lives to open a road to victory.
In their opinion, the attack of the tank legion was like a magic cast by a witch. They believed that this attack would never last long. As long as you grit your teeth and persevere, you would be able to win the final victory.
Because of ignorance, he is fearless.
However, it has to be said that these French soldiers had a right bet. When the sound of heavy machine guns stopped, these French soldiers instantly felt a strong desire to win. They felt that the most terrifying time was over. As long as they could hit the vicinity of those huge iron blocks and rush to the enemy's defense line, they could win the final victory.
So, all the French soldiers launched a fierce attack, and they were like crazy, rushing forward desperately, and everyone took out their strength to run with all their strength.
The roar of shells still echoed around. Every moment the shells fell, a clearing of an open space of about fifty meters in the French Legion was cleared.
However, they are not very afraid of this type of soldiers attacking France, because there will be any gaps under this kind of attack. No one knows whether they will be attacked. Everything is left to fate, so they are fearless, and those who are really attacked have no chance to be afraid.
Although the artillery bombardment of the Tank Legion was fierce, because the French soldiers were too many and the front line was too long, some lucky people gradually passed through the gaps of shell bombing and rushed to a hundred meters ahead of the Tank Legion.
This distance is actually a bit threatening to the tank legion, just like it is dark under the light. For enemies with such a close distance, tanks cannot cause any effective attacks.
The best way for tank legions to fight is to combine it with infantry. Tanks can serve as cover for infantry, while infantry can help tanks clear out enemies that are too close.
At this moment, once the French soldiers rushed into the distance of thirty meters, Eugen and others had no way to prevent these French soldiers from approaching.
After those French soldiers approached, they would not take long to find the import and export of the tank. By that time, the drivers and others who stayed in the tank would not be able to fight against these soldiers with strong stalkers, and they would have to be beaten passively.
At that time, the only thing waiting for the tank army was left to wipe out the entire army.
Thinking of this, Eugen did not hesitate. He showed a wilted smile on his face and said softly: "Tank Legion, stop attacking and retreat one kilometer together. Don't let those French soldiers approach, and then continue to attack!"
After the words came, the tank where Eugen was located responded, and began to gradually start and drive towards the rear.
The same is true for other tanks. With a buzzing sound, all tanks immediately started and then quickly retreated to the rear.
So, just as the French soldiers were filled with hope, the defense line they had attacked with all their might actually move.
This thing that was taken for granted by the Tank Legion was like a bolt from the blue in the eyes of the French soldiers, and it was the most incredible and incredible thing they had seen in their lifetime.
The defense line actually moved!
The huge iron blocks that looked very heavy were slowly retreating to the rear in front of them. They chased them desperately, but they could not keep up with the speed of the iron block leaving.
This speed is faster than the fastest war horses. After a few minutes, they ran to a very far away from them. Only blurry dots were left in their sight.
One kilometer is just a simple retreat for the tank legion, but a desperate distance for these French soldiers.
The poor French soldiers finally realized what ultimate despair is in this battle. In all the battles in the past, the French Legion once felt the strongest despair because of its bravery and strength. They were the creators of despair.
At this moment, they finally tasted the bitter fruit.
After the tank army reached a kilometer, it started bombing again, and the French soldiers at the front were already like a group of walking corpses, but were continuing to charge with instinct.
The French soldiers in the front row gradually died, and the ones located behind continued to rush up, one after another.
From the beginning of the battle to the present, the casualties of French soldiers have reached more than 50,000, which is already the number of people in a reorganized legion. However, the French soldiers have no idea of retreating. For them, because they are on the battlefield, it is difficult for them to rationally think whether this is worth it or whether it is effective.
The commanders of the legion behind could not give orders to retreat. In their opinion, victory was inevitable, and the only thing to consider was the amount of the price they paid.
This so-called price is just a few numbers for the legion commanders, but for those soldiers, it is a life of life.
In this way, the battle entered a regular rhythm. The Flame Legion attacked, the French soldiers charged, and the tank legion bombed. After the enemy approached a certain distance, they started to strafuse with machine guns. After the strafuse was completed, the entire tank legion retreated for another kilometer.
In this way, after the battle lasted for three waves, Eugen's tank army had retreated three kilometers backwards, and the French soldiers had also rushed for about two kilometers.
The two-kilometer-long land was covered with charred craters and the bodies of French soldiers. Blood flowed to the ground, dyeing the ground here red.
Similarly, Eugen's tank legion began to cause damage. During the second wave of attack, the explosive pack thrown by the Flame Legion once again covered the tank legion.
Several tank tracks were damaged and could not retreat in time. As a result, they were surrounded by French soldiers who rushed forward and lost the opportunity to escape.
