Chapter 150: The Battle of Miyang (3)
Dozens of Chinese soldiers peeked out of the trenches, then jumped out of the trenches, and pounced on them with grenades. Two 7.7 mm machine guns in the tank were strafing the "Tutu Tu ......".
One by one, the Chinese soldiers kept falling.
These dozens of heroic Chinese soldiers had just fallen, and then dozens of soldiers rushed out of the trenches, also carrying grenades and carrying explosive bags, and pounced on them desperately......
The Japanese Type 97 medium tank had a load of four people, a commander, a driver, a gunner, and a machine gunner.
The Type 97 tank has a cast conning tower with four 100mm long and 2mm wide prospect joints around the side walls of the conning tower, and an anti-collision head pad and anti-ricocheting structure on the inner side for the commander.
The top of the inner cover houses a periscope tube in the center, and on the right side there is a small circular cover that can be used to communicate the inside and outside of the car. During the battle, the commander can only open the inner cover and use the telescope probe to observe, so that he can see the situation outside, and he can also stretch out a small flag from here to communicate with the outside world.
The turret is surrounded by a fence-mounted antenna of the Type 94 radio station, and a command flag and a red, yellow and green hand-held stick signal light used at night are fixed on the left arm of the inner side of the tower.
Due to the high noise in the car and the lack of an in-car microphone, the commander used the manipulating signal light to command the communication machine to give orders to the driver. There are 12 signal lights in front of the driver to indicate the signals issued by the commander, such as "turn left", "turn right", "accelerate" and "stop".
However, in actual use, because the driver is engrossed in the situation outside the car, he simply does not have the energy to pay attention to the flashing changes of the signal lights, so the commander still prefers to use body language to give orders. Slapping the driver's back means "moving forward"; The shoulder of the driver of continuous boxing indicates "stop"; Pulling the driver's collar backwards indicates an "emergency stop"; Continuous slapping of the driver's back indicates "acceleration"; Pressing on the driver's shoulder is "deceleration"; Slapping the driver's side on the ribs indicates "turning to that side".
Slapping the gunner's back means "firing"; The boxer shoulder indicates "ceasefire", etc.
The Type 97 is mounted with a Type 97 57 mm tank gun with a barrel length of 18.4 times the caliber, 18 right-handed rifling, a body weight of 107 kg, a vertical wedge semi-automatic bolt with an opening upward, and a rate of fire of 10-15 rounds per minute.
The blood of countless Chinese soldiers stained the surroundings of the tank car, and the grenades against the tank car were almost ineffective.
A Chinese soldier finally jumped on the roof of Kazuhiro Sanmaru's tank, holding a grenade in his left hand and lifting the roof cover with his right hand. But the Japanese army had long been on guard against this, and the top cover was tightly closed. The Chinese soldier could not lift the roof of the tank, so he could only smash the steel roof with a grenade, only to smash the roof with a clang.
"Knock knock!" "Knock knock!"
A shuttle of 7.7 mm machine gun bullets flew next to him, and the brave Chinese soldier was shot in the chest and fell from the roof of the tank.
"Stupid, stupid!" Kazusho Sanmaru laughed loudly at the Chinese soldiers, "It's too wishful thinking to blow up our medium tank with a grenade with a wooden handle!" Stupid, stupid! Yaga, Yaga! ”
Although the tank advanced at a moderate speed, that is, 20 kilometers per hour (its top speed was 38 kilometers per hour), it was still quite a bit beyond the distance of the infantry wing behind. So Sanmaru Kazuxiao shouted loudly: "The whole convoy stopped a little and crushed the positions of the Chinese army." ”
So, this squadron of tanks stopped and began to storm the Chinese trenches on the left and right, in fact, crushing.
Countless Chinese soldiers fell in pools of blood again, and some soldiers became a pile of flesh and blood after being crushed by the tracks of tank vehicles. Here and there, the remains of Chinese soldiers are everywhere.
The Japanese tanks were inhumane for a while, and when they saw that the infantry wing behind them was gradually approaching, Sanmaru Kazusho issued another order: "Restore the battle formation, continue to move towards the Chinese position, and advance—"
The Japanese tanks continued to shrink in formation, but they still lined up in their original battle formations and continued to advance towards the deep positions of China.
The tank was advancing and the cannon was being fired, and the 57-mm tank gun was so powerful that the strong fortifications were quickly shattered and destroyed under its blows, not to mention ordinary fortifications.
Although many Chinese soldiers rushed up with grenades along the way, they were all killed as many as they came, and basically no one survived.
Seeing that the chariot squad at the front was about to rush to the last trench. Sanmaru Kazuxiao grinned happily and shouted, "Yo Xi, Yo Xi, if we rush to the end, we can surround the Chinese army." We played from behind, and the Infantry United played from the front. Soon, he ate this Sun Lianzhong. Hahaha-"
If you don't say that people are proud, don't act recklessly, you have already relied on superior tanks to bully the national army enough, and if you want to eat big buns, you also want to eat Sun Lianzhong, isn't this a tengu who wants to eat the moon!?
Just when Kazuko Sanmaru got carried away, 4 small rockets that were burning behind his butt suddenly flew from the sky. These 4 rockets hit the 4 medium tanks at the front.
"Boom, boom, boom-" 4 Type 97 medium tanks were shattered in an instant, and a fire broke out all over the sky.
Sanmaru Kazuhiro first looked forward from the periscope, but because the line of sight was blocked, he didn't see anything clearly, so he looked out from the lookout hole, which is a gap of 100 mm by 2 mm, and he couldn't see anything at all. Sanmaru Kazuxiao was still a little puzzled: "Nani, what is the situation, how did the tank in front of it catch fire." Did you encounter the heavy artillery of the Chinese army? ”
Just as he was wondering, four more air-to-surface missiles Blue Arrow 7 flew down and hit 4 more medium tanks. "Boom-" After a while, there was a violent explosion, igniting a sky-high fire, and black smoke rose for half a day.
At this moment, Sanmaru Yixiao knew that something was wrong. His most urgent task now was to find out what was going on and why there had been a series of explosions in his tank wing.
He didn't care about the danger outside, so he hurriedly opened the top cover, stretched out his head, and personally observed the movement outside.
It didn't matter to him when he saw it, his heart trembled for a while, it was really cold.
The 8 medium tanks were completely destroyed, and the sturdy armor was completely blown to pieces and ignited a huge fire. In the fierce fire, none of the four crew members of each vehicle escaped, and they were killed at that time.
This...... This...... What's going on, could it be said that the artillery of the Chinese army is so powerful, one cannon at a time. No, I've never heard of such a powerful cannon! If it is artillery bombardment, it is good to hit a tank with ten cannons and eight cannons, how can you say one cannon!
Just when he was quite puzzled, he looked up and suddenly found that from the air, there were 4 small rockets flying from behind his buttocks. It was quite fast, but you could still see their trajectory.
Not good, this is the enemy's UFOs, it was they who wrecked my tank car. Sanmaru also forgot that he was on the roof of the car, and others couldn't hear him at all. He shouted loudly, "Dodge, dodge, enemy flying object—"
But in such a vast battlefield, in the midst of such a violent explosion, and in the burning fire and thick black smoke, who could still hear his voice clearly!
I saw that these four small rockets came down according to four medium tank vehicles. They hit the tank respectively, and then produced a big explosion, the tank instantly disintegrated, the parts of the tank car splashed everywhere, igniting a fire that opened the sky, and the thick black smoke slowly rose into the sky, and the black smoke that originally rose into the sky gradually merged into a whole, polluting half of the sky.
"My mother-" Sanmaru Yixiao finally let out a heartfelt sigh, "I've never seen this kind of big killing weapon, and I can't crack it!" ”
Kazuhiro Sanmaru hurriedly got into the tank and at the same time gave an order to the departments: "Attention to all units of the 7th Regiment, attention to all departments, UFOs of the Chinese army have been found at present. Prepare to retreat, prepare to retreat. ”
Now the simplest idea of Sanmaru Kazusho is to retreat and keep his tank troops. Everything else, too far away from me, I don't want to think about it. I still want to eliminate Sun Lianzhong, and wait until I can escape with my life!
While the 7th Tank Regiment was fleeing, four more medium tanks were blown up, and none of the crew escaped. That is to say, 16 medium tanks were bombed, and these unknown flying weapons are also quite strange, they specifically bombed medium tanks, those small bean tanks, they don't look at it at all.
After the four J-20 fighters finished striking and using their missiles, they quickly turned around and went to Nanyang Airport to reload.
At this time, the battlefield was silent again, as if no one was fighting, the enemy's artillery was long gone, and the UFOs were not coming. The slightly louder movement was the beeping sound of the tank car burning in the midst of the raging fire.
Sanmaru Kazuxiao is a little confused again, what about the enemy, why did the enemy suddenly disappear! The enemy he thinks is those UFOs, and when it comes to the J-20 fighter, because it is far away, he can't see it with his naked eye at all.
At this time, Sun Lianzhong's position, which he could see with his naked eye, seemed to be alive again. Countless Chinese soldiers actually stood up from the trenches, loudly applauded their achievements, jumped and congratulated happily, and some even threw their hats into the air in excitement.
Seeing this, Sanmaru Yixiao was a little angry: "Yaga! What's the matter, can we make these soldiers of the Chinese army so happy, our purpose is to destroy their will, we must not make them so happy! Yaga! Stop retreating, and rush towards these proud Chinese soldiers—"
His first squadron was already finished, and the squadron leader of the second squadron advised him: "Captain Sanmaru, are the enemy's UFOs still coming, should we dodge!" ”
