Chapter 612: The Battle of Manchuria (5)

Zhao Lijun was also commanding the battle on a hill at this time, and when he saw that the Russian army had already divided the army to intercept the warrior car, he immediately took the walkie-talkie and said: "Attention all convoys, pay attention to all convoys, immediately break through the intercepted Russian army and attack the main body of the Russian army." Repeat, immediately break through the intercepted Russian army and attack the main body of the Russian army. ”

Zhao Lijun knows very well that it is impossible to defeat the Russian army by relying only on the cavalry of the People's Army, and it is necessary to rely on these 12 warrior vehicles to play a move, although the distance between the two sides is still about 1,500 meters, and the horses on both sides are slow and slow, but at most 5 or 6 minutes, the two sides will contact and fight, so there is not much time left for the People's Army, and the warrior vehicles must break through the interception of the Russian army as soon as possible and attack the main position of the Russian army, so as to be able to assist the cavalry of the People's Army.

"02, 03 pay attention, accelerate to 60 yards, and quickly break through the interception of the Russian army. ”

02 understood. ”

03 understood. ”

Yang Yongjun put down the walkie-talkie and said, "Peak, speed up." ”

Gao Feng laughed and said, "Just wait for this time." All sit tight. As he spoke, he stepped on the accelerator with his right foot, then stepped on the clutch with his left foot, and at the same time quickly shifted gears, and the warrior car let out a roar, and the speed quickly increased from 30 yards to 60 yards, and sped away against the intercepting cavalry of the Russian army.

Yang Yongjun looked left and right, made sure that the positions of the other two warrior cars in his convoy were not deviated, and then said, "Fire." ”

Originally, there were only two commanders and drivers in the crew of a warrior car, and the commander also served as a machine gunner, but this time a machine gunner was added, because of the increased firepower of the warrior car, the Type 86 7.62 mm machine gun on the roof of the car was replaced by a Type 89 12.7 mm heavy machine gun, but the Type 86 7.62 mm machine gun was not abandoned, but moved to the car, installed in the co-pilot's position, and became the front machine gun. This changed the commander to the Type 86 machine gun and added a machine gunner to operate the Type 89 machine gun.

The Type 89 12.7 mm heavy machine gun can have a range of up to 1000 meters and is more powerful, but the disadvantage is that due to the heavier bullets, there are only 600 rounds in a cartridge box, and if you fire at full speed, you can shoot out in 2 minutes. The roof gun of the Warrior is remote-controlled, which can ensure the safety of the machine gunner, but the bullet box is placed on the roof of the car with the machine gun, and if the bullet is finished, the roof window needs to be opened to replace it.

At this time, the warrior car was about 800 meters away from the Russian army's intercepting cavalry, and it was already within the range of the Type 89 heavy machine gun, so the machine gunner Cheng Chaoqun immediately pressed the fire button, and the Type 89 machine gun muzzle on the roof of the car spewed out a dazzling fire, and the bullet drew a flash in the air and shot at the Russian cavalry. The other warrior cars also opened fire one after another, forming several tongues of light.

In front of the Russian army's array, a row of cavalry suddenly fell, and the men and horses in the front row fell to the ground, and they would trip over the war horses in the back row.

In fact, the resistance of the war horse is much stronger than that of people, if it is a 7.62 mm bullet, if it does not hit the fatal part of the war horse, it will not be fatal if it is shot a few times, and the war horse is in a state of excitement in high-speed running, adrenaline is greatly distributed, and the pain is greatly reduced, so it can even continue to run. But the 12.7 mm bullet is different, the power is much greater than the 7.62 mm, even if the war horse is fired, it can't stand it. This is also the main reason why the Warrior car should be reequipped with a Type 89 heavy machine gun this time.

Of course, the Type 89 heavy machine guns on the 6 warrior vehicles did not shoot continuously, but used a short series of firing, but it was not that the Russian cavalry could resist it, but it was also because the Type 89 machine guns failed to fire at full power, so there were still many cavalry who dodged from the gap in the bullets and continued to charge at the warrior vehicles.

However, at this time, the Type 86 machine gun in front of the warrior car also opened fire, although the Type 86 machine gun was not as powerful as the Type 89 heavy machine gun, but the rate of fire was fast and the firepower was intensive, so the Russian cavalry who had dodged the attack of the Type 89 machine gun fell under the muzzle of the Type 86 machine gun.

In fact, from the firing of the warrior car to the close contact between the two sides, there was only a short period of more than ten seconds, and more than half of the Russian casualties who intercepted the warrior car had been killed, but the remaining half was still bravely attacking the warrior car.

"Pay attention to the slowdown, impact. Yang Yongjun had stopped firing from the machine gun, but took out a Type 95 rifle and fired at the Russian army from the side window.

Gao Feng nodded, and immediately stepped on the brakes to reduce the speed back to about 30 yards, because at this time there were a large number of corpses on the ground, and it was impossible for the warrior car to completely dodge, and sometimes it was necessary to roll directly from the corpse.

At this time, a Russian cavalryman swung his knife and rushed towards the back of the warrior car, Gao Feng grabbed the steering wheel with both hands, and hit the left side lightly, and the right side of the front of the car hit the Russian soldier, knocking him out with men and horses.

The total weight of a warrior vehicle is 5 tons, plus personnel, weapons, and ammunition can reach 5.5 tons, and the Russian army's war horse is a three-hippopotamus or a Don hippopotamus, which is a medium-sized horse, and the weight is generally 400-500 kilograms, plus knights and weapons, the total weight will not exceed 600 kilograms, and a collision with a warrior vehicle with a full weight of about 10 times that of oneself is completely a hit with an egg.

Of course, use the warrior car to hit the cavalry, it is also exquisite, although the frontal impact is the most powerful, but this not only has the greatest reaction force on the warrior car, but also the knocked down people and horses are in front of the front of the car, the vehicle has to be rolled away from the body of the horse, which will cause the body to bum, and when it hits, it turns slightly, and uses the left and right sides of the front of the car to hit, you can knock the opponent away from the route of the car, although the force of the impact will be smaller, but it is enough for the cavalry.

Gao Feng drove the warrior car, rushed left and right, and hit 5 or 6 Russian cavalrymen in a row, while Yang Yongjun shot the Russian soldiers from the side window while observing the position of the other two warrior cars and made sure that they were following him. At this time, their convoy had broken through the interception of the Russian army and rushed straight to the main team of the Russian army, and another vehicle group was almost parallel to them, and also penetrated the array of the Russian army.

In fact, it only took more than one minute from the firing to the breakthrough process, and the Russian cavalry battalion responsible for intercepting the warrior car had less than 200 cavalry left, and the grass where the six warrior cars ran over just now was almost covered with the corpses of the Russian people. And the rest of the Russian cavalry did not come back to their senses for half a day, as if they were sleepwalking. Of course, on the other side of the battlefield, the result was much the same, and 6 warrior vehicles successfully broke through the interception of the Russian army.

Yang Yongjun sat in the car, made sure that the other two cars were not left behind, and then said, "How many bullets are left for the Type 89 machine gun?"

Cheng Chaoqun said: "There are 230 rounds left." ”

Yang Yongjun said: "Change the box immediately and prepare for the battle later." ”

Although this bullet box has not yet been completed, the next thing is to attack the main body of the Russian army, there are more people, and 1 complete bullet box is not enough, not to mention that more than half of this is used now, so while there is no attack yet, hurry up and change to a complete bullet box to ensure the battle in the back. So Cheng Chaoqun immediately opened the sunroof on the roof and went to replace the bullet box for the Type 89 machine gun.

The battle situation on both sides of the battlefield, of course, Zelensky, the commander of the Russian army, saw it clearly, and the shock in his heart at this time was difficult to describe in words, because a battalion of cavalry not only could not stop the advance of the 5 or 6 vehicles of the People's Army, but even could not even slow down their breakthrough, almost all the way to the side, and the Russian army's interception was like butter cut under a hot knife, easily breaking through. Only then did Zelensky realize that what the Russian army that participated in the war before said was true, and this kind of car of the People's Army really has great power, even against the cavalry. It is no wonder that the People's Army dares to confront itself with inferior forces, and if it knew that this was the case, it would never easily engage in a decisive battle with the People's Army.

Although the distance between the main cavalry of the two sides is still nearly a thousand meters at this time, it is absolutely impossible to retreat, and the warrior vehicles of the People's Army are only more than 1,000 meters away from both sides of the Russian army. And even if the warrior car can not attack first, and the main cavalry of the two sides fights first, but the cavalry of the People's Army is not a vulnerable army, and the Russian army cannot defeat the People's Army in a short time, and when the two sides are fighting fiercely, the warrior car will attack from the flank of the Russian army, and the Russian army will naturally be defeated.

And Zelensky also thought of sending troops to intercept the warrior car again, but just now a cavalry battalion was not enough to plug the warrior car, so how many more troops should be sent to block the warrior car?

Just when Zelensky was hesitating, all the warrior vehicles had replaced their bullet boxes and also entered the firing range, so the Type 89 heavy machine guns on the roof of the 12 warrior vehicles on the left and right fired almost together, and at the same time reduced the speed of the vehicles to 20 yards, and slowly advanced towards the main formation of the Russian army.

Because the formation of the Russian army is very dense at this time, a large number of Russian soldiers and horses were immediately shot and fell to the ground, Bi Jing's 12.7 mm bullet is too lethal, whether it is a person or a horse, as long as it is a shot, it will be either dead or injured, and it will be completely ineffective if it is not fatal in the mission, so some people pull their horses and move to the middle of the queue to dodge, some people turn around and ride their horses to charge the warrior chariot, and some simply turn their horses and retreat. For a time, the Russian army turned on their backs, suffered countless casualties, and many Russian cavalry rushed into each other, and the intact team quickly became a mess.

At this time, Zhao Lijun, the chief general of the People's Army who was watching the battle, was also completely relieved, and at this point, the battle was already in his hands, so he also ordered the cavalry to accelerate and attack the Russian army.
