Chapter 47: Tank Battles (2)
The "Captain of the Hundred" tank also seemed to be aware of the intention of the "Xiabi", and turned the turret to aim at the "second". Although the shells would have no effect even if they hit the "Captain Hundred" tank, the thick smoke and dust raised by the shells completely covered the periscope of the "Captain Hundred" tank, making it impossible for the tankers inside to aim.
"Boom!" With a bang, the "Captain Hundred" tank opened fire in a panic, but it was a pity. Even though the "Captain of the Hundred" tank was equipped with the most advanced fire control system of its time, it was unable to hit a moving target in this situation, and the shells exploded in a pile of dust far behind the "lower blue". But this does not affect the "downward correction, the speed of progress, it still roars towards the highway entrance,,
Three hundred meters!
All the people on the battlefield, including the British troops stationed on the hollow heights, understood the purpose of this "Shimohiro, tank." The sound of gunfire was much less at this moment, because everyone understood that victory or defeat on the battlefield at this time depended almost on the success of this tank. So everyone turned their attention to this tank, which we didn't even know whose tank was inside.
Two hundred meters!
The speed of the "Xiabi" tank was high, and the distance of a hundred meters passed in the blink of an eye. But at such a moment, the only "Churchill" tank of the British army that entered the open field also reacted. It turned a corner and 'inserted' it into the gap between the "Churchill" and the "Captain of the Hundred", as if it wanted to block the way forward for the "Churchill", but the speed of the "Churchill" tank was too slow, and the "Churchill" turned a corner and easily bypassed the "Churchill" and dropped it and continued towards the highway entrance
。
The "Churchill" is not bad, seeing that the speed is not as good as the "Xiabi", it gave up the intention of interception, and then slowly turned the turret, aiming its barrel at the "Xiaqiu" that rushed in front of it The "Xiahong" at this time just took its weak rear armor *** in the "Hill" Churchill "fired, and the rest of the volunteer tanks fired five shells in a row, five shots and three hits, and the "Churchill" who put the flanks in front of the soldiers did not hurry to open fire, and sent out a purple ' The bright light of the color turned into a ball of fire in an instant, and none of the tankmen inside had time to escape
One hundred meters!
The "Captain of 100" tank and the "Shimohiro" are close at hand. It can be said that the "Captain of the Hundred" tank has one more chance, because at such a close distance, and the "Xiabi" tank also has to go along a section of road to get stuck in a narrow junction. Therefore, the "Captain of the Hundred" tank can almost hit the "Xiabi" as long as it fires a shot directly in front of it.
The British tankers were not fools, and sure enough, at this moment, they quickly adjusted the turret of the tank, and then only heard the sound of "boom", "Down, a burst of gunpowder smoke exploded on the tank turret, and the speed slowed down significantly, and then a wisp of green smoke came up,,
It's over, it's hit!
Seeing this, my heart couldn't help but sink down, just a little bit, the distance of 100 meters is just a few seconds for "going down, the tank is just a few seconds, just a few seconds short of falling short"
Now what? And then use human life to pile up? Going to the pile with a tank?
Even if I were willing, and the soldiers were willing, this battle would not be able to end in half an hour, before the enemy planes entered the battlefield.
Is it possible that the enemy will not send out planes?
No way! Because airplanes are the best weapon against tanks, perhaps the moment our tanks appeared, the British began to call for air support. What's more, this is the first time that our army has engaged in tank combat on the battlefield, so the US Air Force will also treat it with caution.
What to do? Withdrawal? This time the campaign that put in our infantry, artillery, and armored forces was declared a failure?
Although I don't want to, I have to admit that once the enemy's tanks continue to fight, our army, whether it is tanks or infantry, will be in a very passive situation.
In another half an hour, if the enemy's air force is also engaged in battle, our army will not have the possibility of victory.
Although we have tanks, our tank forces are not enough to defend against the enemy's tanks and planes.
Now retreat is perhaps one. The best choice,"
But at this moment, what was stunned was that the "Xiabi", which had been blown up and smoked, suddenly moved again: "That's right, I didn't look at the 'dazzle', I hurriedly raised the telescope and looked at the "concave" not far from the highway entrance.
The smoke gradually dissipated, and the entire turret of the "Lower 34" that appeared in the aperture of my telescope was cut in half, and the "big head, concave" became a small head, and even the barrel of the gun was weakly tilted to the side. There was still green smoke coming out of the tank compartment, and there were still some flames.
This is the power of the "Captain of the Hundred" millimeter caliber tank gun, and if it hits a shot, it is not a question of whether it can penetrate the armor, but whether it can be preserved. I can't believe that a tank has been blown up to this extent, and there will be living people in it, and that tank can still move,,
But I was not mistaken, because it wasn't long before the half-headed "Xiabi" started moving again, and under everyone's astonished eyes, it moved again, from slow to fast. Before the "Captain of the Hundred" had a chance to fire another shot, it got stuck in the road and only listened to the "sonor."
。 "Concave, the crawler hit the "Captain of the Hundred" Zhentan Weaver Six
"Good!" I heard the screams of the guards beside me.
The volunteer soldiers were about to breathe a sigh of relief, but what was even more surprising was that the "Captain of Hundred" tank did not seem to take "Xiabi" seriously. I only heard its motor make a "rumbling" sound, and it added enough horsepower to rush forward, and it was able to "go down, go straight back!"
Not good! Seeing this, the heart I had just put down couldn't help but lift it again. The "Captain of 100" type is a heavy tank, and the power of its engine is full of horsepower, and some models even exceed the Quanma, and "Xiabi, because of the thin armor used, the total weight is only ugly tons, which is not much heavier than the light tank "Chang Xiafei" equipped by the US military. This weight is not a piece of cake for the "Captain Hundred" tank,
But what can be done now? Seeing this, I couldn't help but smile bitterly. It turned out to be this battle. It was destined to be a wasted effort from the start. No matter how brave the fighters are, even if those tankmen can rush up with their tanks to block the intersection so desperately, the result will not change in the slightest. The gap between us and the enemy in tanks is simply too great. Until now, I can't help but wonder if I didn't take into account the gap between the enemy and us in tanks!"
But just when I lost faith in myself. Suddenly, I heard a loud bang. The one with only half a "head" "34. It exploded into a huge fireball, followed by several explosions, and the shells in the tank exploded one after another, and the fireball became bigger and bigger, and in a short time the "Captain of Hundred" type that was holding it was also surrounded in flames......
The first base of "lower calcium" is strong hair. This includes high-explosive shells and armor-piercing shells It's like a small arsenal, and when it explodes, it's equivalent to hundreds of pounds of torture and explosives. No matter how thick the armor and hard the armor of the "Captain of Hundred" tank is, it can't withstand such a detonation. What's more, the engine of the "Captain Hundred" tank is still a gasoline engine. The gasoline power is easy to ignite, but at this time, when it is burned by that flame, there is still the possibility of moving again.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but take a deep breath. In order to calm the "agitation" that came from the "chest". What kind of warriors are these! I seem to see it in that "Xiabi". Several volunteer soldiers, who were inferior to the enemy, drove tanks that they regarded as more important than their lives to crash into the enemy without hesitation, and even if they were hit by enemy shells, they continued to complete their mission with their last breath. In the end, he also pulled a grenade in the tank to detonate himself and die with the enemy.
This can't help but remind me of the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle more than 50 years ago, when Di Shichang also drove a warship that was not as well equipped as the enemy stone to rush towards the enemy ship. Although unfortunately it was hit by an enemy torpedo on the way. But their 'spirit' is how similar to our volunteer soldiers.
"Kill!" The fighters were killed by that car. The heroic performance of the comrades in the tank 'stirred' up the blood 'sex'. They rushed to the enemy's positions with bayonets and shouting. The rest of the "Xiabi" tanks were also very clear at this time that with the British army's "Captain of Hundred" heavy tank blocking the intersection, it was impossible for the British tanks to enter the battlefield, so they confidently concentrated all their firepower on covering the charge of the volunteer infantry. For a while, the tank guns roared, and the turntable machine guns were mounted on the turret of the tank, and the secondary weapons of the "Xiabi" tank were two 'strong' turntable machine guns, which only pressed down on the British troops on the position and could not raise their heads.
On the other hand, the British had hoped that their tank units would come to reinforcements, but they watched their "Churchill" tanks be so vulnerable to their opponents. And the "Xiabi" tank of the Volunteer Army even rushed forward, replacing a medium tank with a medium tank that could be said to be outdated in terms of equipment, and at the same time blocking the intersection so that all the tanks could not pass.
On the battlefield, it's not just a matter of losing a few tanks, it's more important to have momentum. It can also be said to be a kind of fighting spirit and morale. Just as in ancient times, the two sides of the 'warring' war would each send a military general to appear on the battlefield, and a military general would be tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people on the battlefield, which was obviously insignificant. However, the winning side can 'inspire' the courage and morale of their own soldiers, so that they can kill the enemy bravely without hesitation, so that a one-sided situation will appear on the battlefield next.
Although now on the battlefield, this habit of generals going head-to-head is long gone. But in this mystery, there was an unexpected heads-up similar to that of a military general on the ancient battlefield.
And we also won, with a clear weakness of equipment to win the joint ***,,
For some reason, this is when the joint *** comes to mind. I think of the Eight-Nation Alliance. Time is not far off, only fifty-one years from my current era. Moreover, it is a very coincidence that the Eight-Nation Coalition invaded China 51 years ago, and among them were our current opponents, the United States and Britain, and at that time, they only sent a few thousand troops, and some countries even sent only a few hundred troops. The total number of people in the eight countries is only 30,000. But it can invade Beijing and make the entire Qing Dynasty flee to Shaanxi,,
Now, fifty years later. At this moment when the Chinese People's Volunteers once again confronted United States, and at this moment when a total of 17 countries, including the South Korean puppet army, participated in the war with United States, we repelled one United Nations attack after another with weak equipment, and finally 'forced' them to return to the negotiating table to accept the demarcation line we proposed. What a pride and what a pride
Only personally stood on this battlefield. When I watched the British troops, which were called the ace troops, being beaten to the flesh and blood by the soldiers, I could truly appreciate my mood at the moment.
There was no suspense in the next battle, although the British army was said to be the ace force, but our team consisted of one. The nephew group selected by the army's 'elite' can be said to be the trump card among the trump cards. Plus at this time we still have "Bow 4." Under the cover of fire from the tanks, the fighters rushed to the positions of the British troops in a few moments and launched a ***. The British also wanted to escape, but unfortunately they didn't expect the volunteers to *** before, coupled with their arrogance, so they didn't build a 'crossing' trench for their retreat at all. And all their fortifications were built on the positive slope. If you want to retreat at this time, you must climb over the top of the mountain and light your back in front of the fire of the volunteer soldiers.
This is exactly what those "concaves." It's time for tanks to shine. The gunners were able to hit the barbed wire with precision when the tank was advancing, not to mention that it was now easier to aim when the tank was stationary. With a burst of roars. One shell after another landed precisely on the fleeing British troops. The explosion caused the British army's blood and 'flesh' to fly sideways and scream in the sky.
The machine gunners on the tanks were not weak, and they all beat the turntable machine guns to a "whoosh". Straight sound. Rows of bullets rained down on the fleeing enemy, causing the British to fall to the ground one by one and roll down the hill.
In the end, the British finally realized that resistance and flight were meaningless, so they raised their hands at the volunteer soldiers who rushed forward.
"Retreat". With my order. The soldiers standing beside me waved their flags. The volunteer soldiers were not equipped with walkie-talkies, and the telephones were only suitable for defense, so even I, the regiment commander, had to use the method of flying flags at this time to command my own troops.
It is no wonder that some people say that soldiers below the level of volunteer military battalions cannot be called back when they are released to scream. Now I realize what that means. Not to mention the battalion, if this is a night battle, if this is to call this unit back, I think it will take a dozen communications troops out to do it.
The tank slowly drove back to its tunnel amid the cheers of the soldiers, and the soldiers also returned to the 7th Heights as fast as they could, among which there were naturally a group of British prisoners in charge.
But in a moment, there was nothing left on the battlefield except for the corpses and the wreckage of several tanks still smoking.
The 2 high ground that the net just won left only one company to defend. It is said that the enemy's fortifications on the positive slope are really beneficial, not to mention the convenience of our artillery and tank troops, as soon as we take it over and modify it slightly, it is directly a ready-made anti-slope fortification.
When I took out my pocket watch, it had only been twenty-five minutes since the battle began.
"It's really dangerous!" As soon as I returned to the regimental headquarters. Jiang 'Chun' Zeng couldn't help but greet him, and said with a wry smile: "The artillery is doing well!" The tank crews also fought well! The infantry also fought well! However, I didn't expect that the gap between our tanks and the enemy's tanks was so big. Fortunately, our tank crews fought bravely! Fight tenaciously! We lost two tanks. The enemy lost four, two to four, so to speak, a victory, and more importantly, they succeeded in providing us with fire support. Took 2 bad heights. The strategic objective was achieved".
"yes". Huang Xianhua also nodded and said: "This battle is indeed very beautiful, it is rare that all arms of the armed forces cooperate so well for the first time!" However, this also shows that our tank troops are not advanced enough! Today, if it weren't for the 'milk' car rushing forward desperately and perishing with the enemy's tanks, the consequences would have been really unimaginable."
"Hmm! That tank is the 'milk'?. At that time, I put all my 'essence' into watching the battle. The number of this tank was not even noticed.
"Find out the list of all the tankers of the 'milk' car". I turned around and said to Liu Shunyi: "Report their deeds to their superiors and give them collective credit."
"Yes!" Liu Shunyi answered, and immediately busily searched for the documents.
I couldn't help but sigh, there was only so much I could do for them.
Only then did the whistling of airplanes sound in the sky. I thought they would have seen that the battle was over and would quickly withdraw from the battle. But what stranged me was that there were bursts of bombing and machine-gun 'shooting' outside the tunnel, and it sounded as if it was still bombing and strafing on open ground.
This makes me wonder a little, do we still have troops in the open field that have not withdrawn?
sent Zhang Mingxue out to see the situation, but after a while, he ran back and said with a strange face: "Commander! There was no one on the battlefield, and the Yankees' planes were dropping bombs and machine guns at the burning tanks, and they couldn't understand what they were doing
"Huh? And this?. I'm also confused.
"You don't understand that, do you?" Li Secretly came out and smiled: "I've seen a lot of this, if we have an artillery truck that blew up the Yankees' plane, there will definitely be a few planes surrounding and shooting at the bombed and disabled cannon." At first, we didn't understand it, but then we found one. The American prisoner asked, "What do you say?" Those Yankee planes! It's to take a picture while playing, and then take the photo back to ask for credit! ”
There was a coax, and the soldiers in the pit all laughed. I also smiled wryly when I heard it. Only then did I realize that it was not only the 'profiteer' who would be fake, but also the pilots of the US military.
