Chapter 105: Tanks are not invincible either
Tank "Baga, the Chinese are really crazy!" Sitting in tank car No. 3 and commanding four tanks to fight, Changzhi Daxiong Shaozuo let out a lament, and at the same time his eyes widened. He didn't even touch a large bag with his hands because the tank shook violently and knocked out of his head.
It was a masterpiece after a 75-mm mountain artillery shell exploded five meters away from the tank.
In the lookout hole, dozens of meters away, the turret of an unlucky egg directly hit by a mountain artillery shell was directly blown into parts, not only now, but even in the future, the most fragile tank with the top armor is most afraid of an attack from the sky.
"All accelerated." The Changzhi Bear roared hoarsely.
The determination of the Chinese, even their own soldiers to ignore the fierce shelling, made this great nobleman from Kyoto, Japan, feel the fear of death's grim smile for the first time.
He didn't want to be the unlucky guy who was blown up and the turret was blown away and all of them were blown to death in the tank, although the chance was pitiful, but there was a chance that it wasn't?
He wants to become a general of the Imperial Army, and it is not impossible to become a marshal, how can he die in this obscure little place in China?
If Changzhi Daxiong knows a Chinese saying: there are some things that you can't be afraid of, and the more you are afraid, the more something will come. Then he would definitely take the idea back, preferring never thought about it.
。。。。。。
In various dramas of the future republic, the Chinese soldiers who were forced to helpless would tie up a grenade and drill under the Japanese tank to pull it, and the tank would lie down with a "boom".
The picture not only makes people sigh at the heroism of the warriors but also makes people extremely relieved, and it is a storyline that almost every director uses.
Remember the URL mom
Whether it is in the city or in the mountains and plains, as long as the tank can drive it, you will see these heroic figures.
Of course, this is not a fabrication, on the contrary, there are many such examples.
Whether it was the Battle of Songhu or the bloody Battle of Taierzhuang, in the Great Patriotic War, in every corner of China, there were shadows of Chinese soldiers dying together with enemy tanks.
These are all recorded in detail in the battle records of both Japan and China, and they are heroic and indelible by time.
However, how much sadness and helplessness is hidden in this kind of heroism!
The country's industrial and economic backwardness has led to the need for soldiers to use flesh and blood to compete with the enemy's iron weapons, which should be remembered by all.
In the future, China will certainly not be able to follow such an old path.
And if you think it's easy to tie a grenade to your body and drill under the tank, you're very wrong.
At the beginning of the establishment of the armored corps, the shortcomings of the perspective were destined to the early armored corps could not independently complete the task of attacking the position during the operation, and the armored troops must be protected by infantry, whether it is a tank or an armored vehicle without infantry protection, as long as the enemy infantry enters the shooting corner of the tank, it is the end of these steel monsters.
While the infantry provides protection for the armored forces, the strong attack and defense of the armored forces also give the infantry strong support.
The Panzer Divisions formed by the Germans before 1936 were at the forefront of this (in the case of the Second Panzer Division, established in 1935): two Panzer Regiments, two Infantry Shooting Battalions (Infantry), one Motorized Shooting Battalion (Motorized Infantry), two Artillery Brigades, a reconnaissance company, and anti-armor, engineer and communications brigades.
It was precisely with this combination of armored divisions of various services that the Germans annihilated one infantry division after another in a devastating posture in the early days of World War II.
The Japanese, on the other hand, were still at a kindergarten level in mechanized warfare compared to the Germans, but they at least knew how to use infantry to protect the perimeter of the tank.
All enemy troops who want to bully within 20 meters of the tank are their key targets.
On such a battlefield, even if you want to be a hero, it's not so easy to be a hero. As the tanks commanded by Changzhi Daxiong got closer and closer to the trenches, the puppet infantry was ready to charge and jump into the trenches, and the 1st Company and 1st squad hiding in the trenches couldn't help it.
If the puppet army is the first to rush into the trench, they are most likely to be shot indiscriminately in the trench, instead of being able to pull a tank as a cushion before they die, and if they can't blow up the tank, not only will they die, but the brothers behind will also die.
The 1st squad of ten soldiers distributed in the trenches all came up with their own strange moves, some of them aimed at the direction of the tank's advance, found a corner in the trench and pretended to be dead, a large bundle of cluster grenades was pressed under him, and the moment Tucker crossed the soft belly of the trench to reveal was the moment he pulled the grenade tab.
No one has the time to check the authenticity of a "corpse" on the battlefield, as long as the tank passes five meters around him, no one can prevent him from dying with the tank, and the simultaneous explosion of a dozen grenades loaded with 100 grams of explosives is no less powerful than that of a mountain artillery shell.
However, even if it is a decisive death, not many people will adopt this method of 100% death.
As long as it is a human being, there will always be the idea of stealing a life, just like many people will think when they see the film and television footage, why don't those heroes stuff grenades in it, and hide by themselves? That is not not the completion of the task and the preservation of life, what a perfect ending!
As an outsider, you will think so, and those who are in it will naturally think so. Everyone wants to live in this world and enjoy the sun and air.
Many people will say that you are blaspheming the hero, and you are living the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.
However, this is human nature, and it has nothing to do with morality or character.
It's like the combat heroes in the red army who bombed pillboxes and blocked machine gun muzzles, don't they want to live? Of course they want to live!
Even the records have written in detail that the explosives package was put many times in a row, but they all slipped down, if it could not be placed between the angle between the column and the bottom of the bridge, the bridge would not collapse at all, and finally the explosives bag was supported by hand, which was really the last choice;
The other hero was pushed out by the enemy after stuffing the blaster several times, the machine gun continued to roar, his comrades were still wailing on the ground, and he could no longer block the enemy's machine gun, so he chose to use his chest;
So what choice did they make?
The reason why they became heroes is not necessarily because they have always been virtuous, but because at that moment, the choice they made triumphed over humanity, and even if it was just a momentary choice, it would always shine in the night sky of the Republic.
The vast majority of the soldiers of the 1st squad still chose to crawl to the tank, trying to send the cluster grenades on their backs to the tracks of the tank.
But few succeeded.
The distance of more than ten meters has become their road to death.
Four or five people rushed out one after another, all of them were shot by puppet soldiers and tank machine guns on the way forward, and a soldier disguised as a corpse pulled a grenade hidden under him at the moment when the track swept over his head.
A large bag appeared on the head of the Changzhi bear again, which was touched by the violent vibration of the tank after it was bombed.
But he was extremely happy, because only those who could feel the pain represented that he was still alive.
On the battlefield, being able to feel pain is the greatest happiness.
Fortunately, the Chinese's bomb only broke the track of the tank he was in, but it was terrible to stay on such a terrible battlefield and not move.
Feeling the constant sound of bullets and shells of the steel shell and the sound of shells crashing on the tank was like a foot on the gates of hell.
"Number 1, number 4, I need support!" With the urgent cry for help from the tank captain, the other two tanks turned with black smoke and frantically pounced in the direction of the right flank position.
