Chapter 756: Armored Assault
Luo Kebiao, the commander of the first tank battalion and the first company of the tank battalion of the 350th Division armored regiment, got out of the commander's command tower of the gray-painted Tiger tank, looked around with his head in the black tank cap characteristic of the armored corps, waved his fist at the infantry following the tank, and shouted: "Brothers, you can rest assured, I will definitely help you crush the little devil's firepower points and pillboxes, so that you can occupy the little devil's position in a walk!" ”
Teng Lin, the infantry company commander in the back, snorted coldly, and snorted dissatisfiedly: "What's the spirit, without Lao Tzu to help you look behind, do you dare to rush over with such a swagger?" ”
But even though he said that, Teng Lin could still vaguely see the envious eyes of the infantry around him. After the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion was equipped with tanks and assaulted, the tactics of infantry follow-up have begun to replace the past history of relying solely on infantry charges, and for a while the infantry seemed to have a feeling of being eliminated. Even some tall soldiers were a little annoyed why they were so tall, otherwise they could have been addicted to being an armored soldier.
When the tank drove more than 1,000 meters away from the Japanese position, Rokemark retracted his body into the turret, and then closed the lid, the tank began to accelerate slowly, and the turret began to swing at a 35-degree angle, which was already a standard state to meet the enemy.
"Da Da Da ......"
Not far away, there was a burst of machine gun, it was the Japanese Army's Type 92 machine gun began to strafe, and from time to time bullets hit the armor and flashed sparks. Soon the MG34 parallel machine gun in front of the turret of the Tiger tank also rang out, and the flames swept towards the Japanese position.
"Mizukawa Juncao...... Mizukawa Juncao, you immediately take your squad to urgently reinforce the Noguchi team, and the chariot of the Shina people is coming up! ”
With the order of the brigade commander, dozens of Japanese soldiers who were originally nested in a dilapidated trench immediately rushed along the blown trench in another direction under the leadership of a small but unusually strong military Cao, they completely ignored the rain of bullets and mortar shells that kept flying overhead, and at this time everyone understood that they had no way to retreat, if they did not repel the tanks of the Huaxia people, only death awaited them, thinking of this, the bestiality in their hearts was stirred up.
"The Chariot of China...... The chariot of Shina is coming up, and everyone is ready to fight! ”
As the tanks approached, the artillery in the rear began to support the front with mortars of various calibers, 75 mm infantry guns and other tactical support artillery, with the roar of the approaching tanks, the earth began to tremble regularly, the roar of motors came from the battlefield filled with gunsmoke, and the soil particles that were blown up on the trenches began to shake off
Barely leading his men to another position, Mizukawa Commander Cao lay in the crippled trench, and saw through the smoke of the gunpowder that he least wanted to see, a group of massive steel monsters roared, and they rushed towards their positions while strafing them with machine guns.
"The chariot is coming!" A soldier pointed ahead and shouted in horror.
Tanks are naturally not unfamiliar to the Kwantung Army, and the Japanese Army has a large scale of tank troops, the first, second, and third tank divisions, a total of three divisions. It's just that the former had been transferred to Hong Kong the month before, the latter had always fought in Kannai, and the Second Tank Division was transferred to the Nanyang area when the Pacific War broke out to fight the British to the death. But despite this, this did not prevent the Japanese soldiers from knowing tanks, and after hearing that the Third Army had a large number of tanks, the Japanese even urgently dug an anti-tank trench in front of the position!
Mizukawa Juncao climbed to the side of Juncao and said loudly: "Noguchi-kun, where are your anti-tank weapons here, hurry up and order them to fire!" ”
Noguchi Juncao pointed to the small-caliber artillery that was firing on the side and smiled bitterly: "All the anti-tank artillery is left!" ”
Mizukawa Jun Cao saw that it was a Type 94 37 mm anti-tank gun imitating the German Sanqi War defense gun, this anti-tank gun has the ability to penetrate 60 mm homogeneous steel plate at a distance of 1200 meters, and it is naturally more than enough to deal with the Japanese I's own Douding tank, but he has no bottom in his heart whether it can penetrate the tanks of the Chinese.
The facts quickly confirmed Mizukawa Juncao's fears, the Type 94 37mm anti-tank gun, machine guns, and rifles fired shells and bullets constantly hit the armor of those steel monsters, but in addition to constantly banging on the shell of the Huaxia tank, the constant noise accidents could not stop their advance.
Seeing that the anti-tank artillery could not penetrate the tanks in front, Noguchi Guncao's face was a little unbearable, and he said viciously: "Come on, send a team to blow up those tanks!" ”
It's just that as soon as he finished speaking, he was stopped by Mizukawa Juncao: "No! Look at the back of those chariots. ”
Noguchi Juncao looked at it, his eyes suddenly froze, it turned out that there were many cat-waisted infantry standing behind those Chinese chariots, and these infantrymen were vigilantly looking around while following the chariots, and sending infantry up in this situation could only send them to death.
Seeing this situation, Noguchi's expression also darkened, and Mizukawa Juncao on the side patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "Forget it, fortunately, we also dug an anti-tank trench in advance, but it would be nice if we also had an anti-tank gun with a larger caliber, such as 57 caliber." Then we can use the anti-chariot trench to blow up all the chariots in China! ”
There is indeed a certain amount of truth in what Mizukawa said, the 3-meter-wide and 6-meter-deep anti-tank trenches dug by the Japanese army can indeed form an obstacle to the tanks, but it also depends on the situation, for the armored regiment that has been baptized in actual combat, a mere anti-tank trench is still very easy to crack.
While Mizukawa was speaking, more than a dozen No. 4 tanks that had arrived first had already stopped, and soon rows of shells came from the rear, and these shells emitted a large amount of yellow smoke after exploding dozens of meters in front of the anti-tank trench, and the combat area quickly became blurred. At this time, if Mizukawa and Noguchi had clairvoyance, they would have noticed that in the fog, a soldier who had been following the tank jumped into the anti-tank trench.
The soldiers who jumped into the anti-tank trench relayed several packs of explosives into the anti-tank trench, and then with the shout of the infantry platoon commander, accompanied by a violent explosion, the sides of the anti-tank trench up to 6 meters deep were blown up, and tons of soil were instantly dumped into the anti-tank trench with a width of nearly 3 meters, forming a slope for tanks to walk on in an instant.
In fact, when the anti-tank trenches first appeared in the French theater of World War I, they could indeed stop the moving tanks, but soon the tactics invented by the Germans were cracked by the British, who just sent some sappers to put a few packs of explosives in the trenches and destroy a section of the trenches by blasting, and then the sappers could quickly open up a passage for the supply of tanks.
With a continuous burst of explosions, the infantry quickly opened up several passages, and as two red flares pierced through the smoke and appeared in mid-air, the tanks that had been parked behind the anti-tank trenches began to accelerate, passing through the anti-tank trenches with a roar, and when the tanks that rushed out of the smoke with a rumbling sound appeared in front of the Japanese troops, all the Japanese troops were stunned.
When dozens of tanks appeared on the battlefield, there was a roar everywhere, and these thick-skinned steel monsters formed a triangular formation and rumbled towards the Japanese positions. The gray paintwork, the green smoke from the tail exhaust pipe, and the dust raised by the tracks accompanied the figure of the tank clearly appeared in the sight of the Japanese army.
The clanging sound of the steel tracks and the gurgling of gnashing teeth gradually became stronger and closer, and at this time the distance of the tank was already very close, and the Japanese troops on the position could even see the little dirt on the tank armor more clearly, which also showed that the tank was already very close.
Seeing the approaching tanks, whether it was the wing commander Kawahara Rinke Daisa, or the Japanese soldiers on the position, their faces were ugly, and they understood that if they couldn't stop these tanks, it would only be a matter of time before their entire wing was wiped out. Rather than being killed or even crushed to death by the tanks of the Huaxia people in shame, it is better to give it a go and fight with these Chinese tanks.
As early as after the Huaxia tank rushed out of the smoke, Mizukawa Juncao had already selected more than a dozen soldiers, and at this time he began to distribute a dozen white strips of cloth to those soldiers who were selected, and when they saw these white strips of cloth, these Japanese soldiers understood what was going on. In the tradition of the Japanese army, it is not only a tradition to tie a white silk scarf or strip of cloth on the forehead during wartime, but also means to fight to the death.
Each time the white cloth was handed out to a soldier, Mizukawa Guncao would bow to it and say solemnly: "Later, crawl forward, stuff the explosive bag under the Shina chariot, and then pull the fuse to blow up the Shina chariot, understand?" For the sake of the Greater East Asian Holy War and His Majesty the Emperor, please! ”
Most of the soldiers who took the strip of cloth were expressionless, knowing that they would die today, they were probably numb in their hearts, but when Mizukawa Juncao came to a soldier who was only seventeen or eighteen years old, the soldier's body trembled obviously, but his hands did not dare to take the strip of white cloth, as if it was a poisonous snake.
Seeing the appearance of this young soldier, Mizukawa Juncao immediately became angry, stretched out his hand and slapped the soldier, only to see him pick up a bag of explosives and tie this bag of explosives to the soldier's back, and said viciously to the soldier: "You want to act like a real samurai, understand?" ”
"Mizukawa Juncao...... I...... I ......"
The young soldier wanted to say something, but when he saw Mizukawa Juncao's almost devouring eyes, he could only swallow back what he was about to say, at this moment, he understood like the dozen or so selected soldiers that he had no way to retreat, either to blow up the chariot of the Huaxia people, or to blow himself up, and there was no third way to go.
More than a dozen soldiers walked to the place where the opponent's explosives bag was carried one after another, and began to carry the explosive bag on their backs, and then lined up to stand beside Mizukawa and Noguchi Guncao.
Noguchi Juncao also bowed deeply to everyone, and solemnly instructed: "You must remember that after leaving the position, you only need to crawl forward, and you must not be able to stand up, otherwise you can only become a living target for the people of China." Remember, use the grass to get close to the chariots of the China, and blow them up, and if anyone can blow up the chariot of the China, and come back alive, I will personally report to the squadron leader...... No, ask the captain for him! ”
"Go ahead, like a real samurai!"
In the end, with Mizukawa Juncao waving his hand: "Okay, I've finished what I should say, now it's time for you to play!" ”
With that, the soldiers ran out of a section of the breastwork that had been blown open. The young soldier stood at the end, he turned his head and wanted to say something to Mizukawa Juncao, but after thinking about it, he touched the pocket on his left chest, sighed lightly, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, touched the explosive bag on his back, and ran out of the trench with a determined look, and then immediately jumped into a crater, and then slowly began to crawl forward towards the Huaxia tank in front.
After a while, the soldiers began to approach the rumbling tank, and only the young Japanese soldier was still crawling slowly at the end, only to see him lurking in the crater for a while to avoid the bullets that passed overhead, and then crawling slowly in the grass without the slightest sign of hurry.
"Amaterasu bless, you must blow up the chariot of the Shina people and stop the attack of the Shina people!"
Behind him, Shuichuan Jun Cao and the other soldiers all looked at the more than a dozen soldiers who were crawling towards the Huaxia tank with expectant eyes, and these soldiers were crawling hard with the help of the smoke on the battlefield. It could observe the white strips of cloth on the heads of the soldiers looming in the smoke of gunpowder, and the Huaxia chariots and the infantry behind them had not yet noticed the soldiers who were advancing covertly, and they were getting closer and closer to the chariots with green smoke spitting from their tails.
"Yo West...... Rush over, rush over, and pull the dynamite pack! ”
Mizukawa Juncao stared at the front tightly, his hands clenched into fists became tighter and tighter, and his nails had pierced into his fists without realizing it.
"These stupid people, don't rush over quickly, hurry up!"
Just when Mizukawa Juncao was in a hurry, a soldier finally jumped out of the crater and rushed towards a tank less than thirty meters away from him.
Mizukawa Juncao couldn't help but shout: "Good ......"
"Da Da Da ......"
I only heard a crisp gunshot, and Mizukawa Juncao's voice seemed to be choked and could no longer be spit out......
