I have been fascinated by tanks since I was a child. I like the security brought by the heavy armor of the tank. I like the special sound when the track rubs against the ground. The most impressive thing in World War II is the blitzkrieg of the powerful German armored forces against Europe. After all, a large number of German ace tankers with fabulous high records emerged in the later period. Excluding the side of values and evil, their records are ridiculously high from the perspective of their record. But they are the evil side after all. . . .
As a big fan of actor Brad Pitt and the game World of Tanks, I feel really happy to see them appear in a movie together. I like Pete's resolute and stylish square face and the bleak look in his eyes. Some of his movies have also affected my life. . . . . . Uh, a digression, here I mainly want to tell some details about the movie and the story behind it.
The tanks in the opening screen are the German No. 4 medium tank, the American M4 Sherman medium tank, and the German Panther medium tank.
The US Army’s 2nd Armored Division is nicknamed [HELL ON WHEELS]. The division’s commander is the famous General George Patton. As Patton’s direct line of troops, the division represents the highest level of American armored forces in World War II [this should have been It is the honor of the first armored division of the U.S. Army, but due to its pride and arrogance in the North African battlefield, the U.S. first armored division was beaten in a beautiful ambush by Rommel’s 21st and 10th armored divisions in the Kesselring Valley. war. According to incomplete statistics, the German army caused the death, injury or missing of 6,300 soldiers of the US Second Army, and 4026 people were captured. The Allied forces destroyed 183 tanks, 194 half-track armored vehicles, and 512 vehicles of various types. The opening scene of the movie General Patton depicts the tragedy after the battle. After the battle, the main force of the American First Armored Division was basically maimed so that it did not even participate in the Normandy landing.] The title of main armored force was naturally placed on the Second Armored Division. Later, the Second Armored Division participated in the landing battle in Sicily, Italy, the landing battle in Normandy, France, from the French beaches all the way to Belgium, liberating the Netherlands. 2 The Imperial Armored Division just fought a bloody battle. The 2nd Armored Division was destroyed by more than 300 tanks [basically all of the division’s possessions]. Although the loss was several times that of the German tanks, the 2nd Armored Division was destroyed. However, it successfully held the line of defense and contained the spearhead of the German armored counterattack. This is really not easy. [If you change to a general US army, half of the equipment loss will basically collapse, but the 2nd Armored Division was stunned at the time. After a few days of rest, the 2nd Armored Division regained strength [this is really a flaw in the German armored division] and became the first to attack. The U.S. troops crossing the Rhine River and the 7th Army of the U.S. Army encircled the Germans on the Western Front in the Ruhr Industrial Zone in Germany in April, and later became the only U.S. troops to move into Berlin. And the film tells the story of the division when it went deep into the German hinterland in April. Here, many viewers will feel that the whole film is an American anti-German drama, but the author believes that the film is very real, there are two real characters in World War II can be used as the prototype of the characters in the film. The first is the U.S. Army's 4-star general Abrams. Yes, you should have heard of the M1 Abrams, an active series of main battle tanks in the United States. Its name is to commemorate General Abrams. During World War II, his team ran 40 miles in two days and drove the tank in almost every major battle on the Western Front from 1944 to 1945. His car was a typical M4 Sherman tank, with 10 tanks. I changed 7 vehicles in the month, and I have achieved a record of destroying 80 enemy tanks. [In World War II, the American tank soldiers guaranteed that they would not be destroyed by German tanks. It was already very good, not to mention that he actually destroyed 80 enemy tanks, of course. Some of them were Italian tanks, they were destroyed but they were lucky to survive many times, so it was really awesome] Abrams later participated in the Vietnam War as a general. The second prototype is the American soldier Audi of World War II. Murphy, in Hertsville, France, on January 26, 1945, Murphy's army has 128 men, but only 19 can fight. Murphy left his comrades in the back, and he used the phone to command the rear artillery to attack the 6 Tiger tanks and 2 infantry in front of the reinforced company. After the hit Tiger tanks retreated, he himself used the M1 carbine. Continue shooting at the swarming German army until the ammunition is empty. Then he stood burning after being hit by a tiger tankM10 tank destroyer with machine guns M2 12.7mm caliber (that is, the end of the Furious Pete stood on the tanks of the German machine gun fire with the money used) continue to fire on the German infantry, the next two reinforced company of Germans in their fierce firepower He could only crawl forward, and then his leg was injured in the fierce fire, but he fired with a gun in one hand for an hour. The rear fire commander asked Murphy over the radio: the artillery is too close to you, how far is the German from you? Murphy told the rear artillery commander on the phone: Don’t hang up, the German will tell you to stay away soon. How close I am. (So don't think that this kind of behavior is unique to one country, and other countries also have these brave behaviors)
Encouraged by Murphy, many people volunteered to join his organization's counterattack, which eventually drove the German army out of Hertzville. Based on Murphy's bravery, he was awarded the Medal of Honor.
Then came the classic tank battle. The German tank soldiers of World War II particularly liked the "head, pinch, and cut" tactics, that is, first destroy the first tank in the tank queue and then destroy the last tank in the queue. The entire column was basically paralyzed on one road, unable to move, and then waiting for them would be slaughtered one by one by German tanks... Many German tank ace in World War II like to use this tactic, here are a few. Example. 1: German tank ace Michel Wittmann [141 tanks and 132 anti-tank guns in World War II] in 1944, in the village of Pokaki, Normandy, and 4 crew members drove a Tiger heavy tank alone through this tactic. Destroyed 20 Cromwell cruisers, 4 Firefly medium tanks, 14 half-track vehicles and 14 Bren armored personnel carriers of the British 7th Armored Division in just 5 minutes. The 7th Armored Division was attached to it. One company of the first rifle brigade was wiped out, and more than 200 people were killed. After that day, the British armored units retreated, which greatly eased the pressure on the German defense line in the area. This was done by five men and one tank. The No.007 Tiger tank driven by Wittmann and his 4 crew members was later called the Pokaki Miracle. Does it feel superhuman, but it’s true. 2: German Panther Tank’s No. 1 Ace Enns Buckman [record destroyed 80 tanks], in France in 1944, he and 4 other crew members drove a Panther medium tank through this tactic to ambush a U.S. column with 15 M4 Sherman medium tanks. In the end, when he was injured by the U.S. Air Force P47 Thunder fighter, he calmly repaired and fired. In the end, he destroyed 9 U.S. Sherman tanks and evacuated safely. The Germans used this tactic to attack Soviet tanks on the Eastern Front and achieved amazing results. There are countless examples. For example, on the eastern front in July 1944, the Finnish Olin II commando squadron leader of the 5th Armored Regiment of the 5th Viking Armored Division of the German Waffen-SS drove a Panther medium tank alone. Ambush a column with 10 T34/85 medium tank Soviet tanks. In the battle, he was calm. He first let the Soviet tank column off the position, and then destroyed the first tank in the Soviet tank queue with the first shot. , And then knocked down the last chaser. The remaining 8 Soviet T34/85 tank columns were completely blocked in the middle. They became live targets and were destroyed by Captain Olin. ... 1 to 10 hits a 0:10 exchange ratio.
The sight is amazingly accurate. In a test firing, the Tiger tank fired at a distance of 1200 yards, and unexpectedly 5 consecutive rounds landed on a 16-inch x 18-inch target. It was still during World War II, even if it is a bit difficult for modern times to achieve this accuracy. . . . . . . At the Battle of the Kesselin Valley in Tunisia, North Africa, a German Tiger tank knocked out a Sherman’s turret at a distance of 2,700 meters. Later, 33 Tiger tanks deployed by the Germans in North Africa just destroyed the Allied 150 In July 1944, on the eastern front, a Tiger heavy tank of the 3rd Company of the 506th Independent Heavy Tank Battalion of the German Wehrmacht successfully destroyed a Soviet T34 medium tank at a distance of 3900 meters, setting a world record at the time. . . . . . There has even been an astonishing case where a Tiger tank shell penetrated two Allied tanks. There are countless examples of German tank soldiers driving tiger tanks from one dozen to one hundred. In World War II, every belligerent country has produced tank ace. Like the Air Force, the number and record of German tank ace is also the highest (top ten in the world record) Basically all Germans). Among these trump cards, tiger tanks are the most, accounting for more than 70% of all trump cards. Although they did not use the "Tiger" I throughout their military career, many people replaced the No. 4 tank, Panther tank and even Tiger King tank, and self-propelled anti-tank gun around 1944, but they achieved the best record in the stage. But most of them are obtained by driving a Tiger tank. This also proves the excellence of the Tiger tank from the side. Such as the world's number one tank ace Otto. Many of Karyus (destroying 178 tanks and more than 100 artillery) were shot on the Eastern Front with a Tiger tank. In the most terrifying one, Karyus himself and the crew members drove a Tiger tank and another one. The Tiger tank battled 10 IS-2 heavy tanks and 7 T34/85 medium tanks in the Soviet Union. (2 to 17) finally destroyed all 17 Soviet tanks without any damage to the two tanks of the Soviet Union, which led to the Soviet Union at that time. The elite independent tank regiment of the First Tank Brigade was almost annihilated. You must know that the Soviet IS-2 heavy tanks were capable of destroying German Tiger tanks, but the German tank soldiers’ technology and quality were too high in comparison) But the output of Tiger tanks is too small [only more than 1,300 vehicles, compared with the United States M4 Sherman tank [the entire United States produced nearly 50,000 vehicles in World War II] cannot play a role in reversing the battle situation, and finally was submerged in the huge number of Allied tanks In the billowing torrent. . . . Justice will prevail over all things. At the beginning of the film, the new recruit Norman, who was a typist, was forced to act as a tank machine gunner in the middle of the film. It was very common in the US military at the time. For example, the US 3rd Armored Division had 232 Sherman tanks when it landed in Normandy. By the end of the war, 648 Sherman tanks were destroyed in this division alone, and another 700 were damaged. The damage rate was as high as 580/100. In the Battle of Normandy, the US 2nd Armored Division was destroyed in two days. 57 Xie The Ulman tank, with 363 casualties, was so heavy for the American armored divisions that the US sometimes did not have enough tanks to manipulate the tanks on the battlefield. Many rushed tanks had only 3 men instead of the standard 5 men. 1945 At the Battle of the Rhine in 1988, an armored battalion of the US 3rd Armored Division battled a German Tiger tank. In the end, this Tiger heavy tank destroyed 17 US M4 Sherman medium tanks with 47 shells in its body. With 8 U.S. M26 Pershing heavy tanks, the U.S. commander gritted his teeth and said, "That guy killed one of my company"! (This battle example may also provide inspiration for this tank battle of Fury) It can be seen that the strong armored force of the German army was under various restrictions from 1944 to 1945. , Artillery fired, this is still a lot of armored elite fighting the Soviet army on the eastern front, inconvenient transportation, high failure rate, lack of ammunition and fuel, and at the same time, they have to protect themselves from being destroyed by enemy aircraft). Casualties and losses. Among rival countries that have given such huge damage to the powerful US military in history, only Germany has really done it. . . (Throughout the history of U.S. military warfare, the U.S. military generally traded fewer casualties for the other side's huge casualties)
And Joachim Piper’s SS 101st Heavy Armored Battalion was also in Austria at the time, so it might be a BUG hahahaha, but even the details of the armband were done, really serious, and I can’t find out without taking a screenshot. . The headset of the German tank commander in the picture above uses the technology of voice transmission through the throat. At that time, Germany already had a headset for communication, but when many German tanks were shot on the battlefield and the tank soldiers needed to escape, this kind of headset The thread is easy to entangle the occupant and make it impossible to escape smoothly. Think about being caught in a small confined space full of shells and on fire, only to get caught in the earphone cord. . . . On the psychology of armored soldiers. . . .
Many viewers felt that the combat effectiveness of the German soldiers had been weakened after watching it, but personally felt that, except for the decline of the German combat effectiveness during the tank battle, other scenes were normal. First of all, the background time of the movie was April 1945, Germany at that time. I surrendered in less than a month. The people who supported the morale were basically the Waffen-SS and a few elite Wehrmacht units. Secondly, the main German forces were in Austria or Latvia, Courland, East Germany, Berlin and the Soviet Union. The army engaged in war, and the Wehrmacht on the Western Front was barely counted as the organization, and only Wenck’s 12th Army [the last army of the German Wehrmacht of World War II] was left. After more than 5 years of war consumption, the German army is rich. Soldiers with full combat effectiveness are basically either killed or wounded. They are either captured or surrendered. It is normal for their combat effectiveness to decrease.
Finally, I would like to give the movie Fury a praise, but it still can’t surpass the status of Nolan’s Dunkirk in my mind. Hahaha, there are many details in this movie that we need to understand, and it is these details that make this movie. The movie is real, the special effects are realistic, the simple plot can touch the heart of the audience, and the sense of substitution is strong. Compared with many domestic war films, apart from the drama, the details of the general war films are not handled properly, the character image is dull and lacks vitality and reality, and the editing is improper. , Poor sense of substitution, lack of historicality, artistry and appreciation (it must be true but not real, or art not artistic, many special effects, sound effects, and lines are rough, and I always feel something wrong and awkward when watching it. Of course, European and American war movies are also impossible. To be completely true, but the truth is relative. I am true to you and a kind of truth. Compared to many of our domestic war movies, most war films in Europe and America are still more real.) The most important thing is attitude. A good movie must first treat the audience as human beings, and people are intelligent, but I feel that many civil war films are a test of the audience’s IQ (do you bully the audience for lack of common sense or treat the audience as a fool? Of course, many military The photographer himself lacks common sense and the knowledge behind it). . . . . . Through observation, one thing I really like European and American war films. Many European and American war films are based on human thinking, reflecting on the pain of war rather than summing up the main theme such as which victory is great and which defeats (but we also We should resolutely reject and reject European and American films that purely whitewash the invaders. Don’t say that, behind the slogans of these European and American films that use humanity, reflect on war and cherish peace, they actually whitewash the invaders for profit. This is also true. Lies and deceptions. The sinner is the sinner. The act of launching war and committing war atrocities can never be washed away, because that is the truth. It happened. Don’t talk about any reasons or excuses. When the avalanche falls, no snowflake is innocent.) Art It needs to be real, and the hardware conditions can’t keep up. It’s understandable. After all, real movies are not supported by hardware and special effects, but at least you have to be serious, learn to respect history, learn to shoot real movies, and truly restore the details. The best respect for justice, family, soldiers and civilians who died for survival. If the audience in a country needs to rely on a relatively lack of authenticity but highly provocative film to motivate, I think this kind of self-confidence is not a kind of real "confidence", it is a kind of weak "vent." The audience is happy, but what about the people who gave us their precious lives for justice? This kind of real knowledge is precious. We accept the truth, but we always love our country no matter what. "True" patriotism and "true" patriotism. Excellent war film since From beginning to end, we should tell people a truth, regardless of victory or defeat, those lives that died for justice, for survival, for kindness, and for us, cannot return to their own country, their loved ones, and can no longer see the sun rise tomorrow. I can't breathe the air of tomorrow. Movies should inform people about the preciousness of life, the cruelty of war, and the preciousness of peace. But our films lack these compared with European and American films. Art needs to be truly shown to people, let them know the real history, know everything that happened at that time, learn to cherish their hard-won life, love peace, love family, and love life.
