Chapter 734: The Drill in Progress (3) (Page 1/1)
The current situation is that the tank column in front has opened a long distance from the infantry behind, and the tank column itself has been divided into several parts, as the main force of the assault T26 tank, and the infantry of the second regiment has actually been separated by a very far distance, sandwiched between the two A CV35 tank column, as well as motorcycle search troops, plus the T26 tank continues to accelerate forward, the infantry and the tank disconnection is a foregone conclusion.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
Five 45mm Model 38 46 times the caliber of 45 mm tank shells accurately hit the target on the target position, the shells exploded, successfully destroyed several targets, in the tank column that has appeared disjointed and chaotic, the T26 tank in the forefront has rushed to about 300 meters and the target position, and then began to shoot, the first round of attack of the five tanks with 45 mm tank guns fired to shoot off several targets, and then, the remaining nine tanks, also fired.
The roaring artillery fired one after another, the target position was dusty, and the firepower points composed of the fortress and sandbags set up on the position were almost all blown up and collapsed in the first round of tank gun attacks, in the command vehicle, Zhao Li, the major battalion of the second battalion of the combat vehicle, smelled the thick smell of gunpowder, and his head was faintly painful, even though he was protected by a tank cap, Zhao Li's head hit the inner wall of the turret several times in the tank that was almost at the highest speed impact just now, Lao Maozi's tank was a little rough, but the leather was durable, and the rush was also very fierce, it's just a howl to get up and down.
And it should be said that the quality of the T26 tanks for the Fifth Army is really good, the models are relatively new, and the vehicles have tank radios, all of which are new from the factory, not mixed with a lot of old goods like the infantry weapons that were aided to China.
After the bombardment of the tank gun, Zhao Li turned his head and watched the commander of the tank company and tank commander beside him withdraw the shell of the 45 mm tank shell, and suddenly, the residue and smoke of gunpowder filled the entire turret. In the crowded turret, the heat of the tank gun fire caused the temperature in the turret to rise sharply.
"Sir, shoot over!" The commander of the chariot company shouted.
Zhao Li took advantage of the observation port to see the target position covered by artillery shells, most of the obvious targets visible on the position were destroyed in this round of shooting, the power of 45 mm tank shells is not bad, one round of shooting, fourteen shells, enough to destroy fortifications such as fortresses and machine gun positions. Seeing the bombed miserable target position, Zhao Li inevitably had a trace of happiness in his heart, as a tank commander, rushing into the position to crush the enemy, can make him feel happy, the education he received in the army traffic school, basically related to the impact and operation of the tank, the influence of basic education, let Zhao Li focus more energy on the tank alone, even if Zhang Wei reminded him to pay attention to coordination, but in the current situation of high-speed impact, he still instinctively only pays attention to the impact of the tank column.
Zhao Li pointed forward with his hand and said in a very passionate tone: "All of them use machine gun fire to attack the enemy position!" ”
"Yes!"
The shells of tank guns are precious, and they dare not consume too much in training, and just after the first round of shooting, the T26 tank column has rushed to a distance of about 100 meters, and at this distance, there is no need to use shells, so Zhao Li ordered to switch to machine gun shooting. The distance is shortened, and it is indeed necessary to use machine guns to fight infantry.
The pleasure of attacking the position and the accurate tank gun firing made Zhao Li gradually ignore the infantry shouting and killing behind the tank column......
Fourteen T26 tanks received the order to attack the target position and switch to machine gun shooting, the same pace of the impact, fourteen tanks lined up in a line, full horsepower impact, the 7.62mm DT machine guns in the tank fired fiercely, twenty-eight tank machine guns formed a line of fire, strafing the target position, not far away from the position, the smoke after the tank gun shelling has not yet dissipated, the machine gun fire has made it suffer a second attack, the surface is a mess, full of devastation.
"Dadada"
Under the rapid sound of machine gun fire, 14 tanks quickly rushed into the target position, ran over the trench of the target position, and successfully "broke through" the enemy's position.
……
Thick smoke and gunfire were blowing, and the tank crews were killing well, but more people were unhappy.
"Regiment commander, these tanks have rushed into the position, those small tanks and motorcycles are lagging behind, blocking the path of the infantry attack, and their tank troops don't care about our infantry at all!"
In the departure position of the infantry, Zheng Yiqun, attached to the regiment, said anxiously and angrily, the tank soldiers rushed very fiercely, but behind the butt of the T26 tank column, the scene was not good-looking, the CV35 tank column and the sidecar motorcycle search soldiers had been pulled down a long way, and now they were moving slowly, and what was even more ridiculous was that there were two CV35 smoked and stopped, and the crew members got out of the car and were overhauling the vehicle, apparently these two Italian-made tanks had mechanical failures and broke down, and the two tanks after breaking down were stuck in the center of the attack route, It is equivalent to directly blocking the attack path of the infantry.
As for the infantry of the second supplementary regiment, it was pulled down far by the cv35 and motorized search soldiers, the T26 tank drove to the highest speed, and it was not the infantry that could catch up at all, not to mention that there was a slowed down cv35 and sidecar motorcycles in front of it, only to see the infantry of the supplementary second regiment, tired of rushing to charge, good training made them not collapse, but between them and the tank, a distance of nearly 300 meters has been opened, the so-called coordination, has been lost, if there is really a Japanese army in the front position, Then the Japanese could use artillery and heavy fire attacks to stop the infantry of the second regiment from advancing and keep the infantry out of the position.
Against tanks without infantry cover, with the level of firepower and infantry quality of the Japanese army, it is completely possible to use the 37 rapid-fire guns to shoot at close range, and even use grenades to attack the tanks at close range.
The outcome of this attack is already obvious.
Zhang Wei shook his head and put down the binoculars, the T26 tank column in front had already rushed to the position, which also meant that this coordinated exercise was almost equivalent to failure.
"The tanks are rushing too hard, and the infantry can't keep up even if they die, and the brothers of the second regiment of our men are doing well, and the brothers of this tank regiment are a little eager to win."
The tank rushed to the target position, and the drill was almost over, Zhang Wei was somewhat disappointed in his heart, in this exercise, his own infantry performance, basically nothing to find fault with, only a small part of the chaos, Zhang Wei was very satisfied.
But the problem of this tank force, Zhang Wei really thought that it was not small, saying that they were eager to win, it was a more implicit statement, to put it bluntly, that is, regardless of the infantry, there was also a problem with the marshalling of the attacking vehicles, and this was still the result of emphasizing coordination before the war, if not emphasized, maybe they would have to fight like a bird.
To put it mildly, the failure of this exercise has nothing to do with the replenishment of the second regiment, and if you want to blame it, you can only blame the tank that hit it for being too fierce. This problem of infantry and tank coordination of the national army, it seems that the tank soldiers also have to take the blame!
"Let's go, don't complain, the problem has to be changed!"
