Relying on his own tank to arrive soon, Li Tianxi still did not change his order even though he had already discovered that the devil had a trick.

The devils are retreating, a battalion is advancing, and there is a company in the middle that is firing wildly, anyway, there are a lot of weapons and ammunition on the battlefield.

Little devils, let you see the power of our new 34th Division, and let you know that the 12th Army cannot be provoked! Li Tianxi was a little excited, he hadn't been the vanguard for a long time, and he hadn't enjoyed this kind of joyful feeling for a long time.

The reality is very cruel, Li Tianxi thought that with tanks, he could be invincible, and thought that with tanks, this battle would definitely be won, but when the first battalion was about to arrive at the piece of the warning position occupied by the first company, which belonged to the devils, an accident appeared.

Suddenly, there was a terrible sound of cannonballs breaking through the air in the direction of the devil's retreat.

Unlike the strange cry of grenades thrown from a grenade, the sound was slightly flat, but it came quickly and whistling in patches.

The devil's heavy artillery!

Although Li Tianxi couldn't tell what caliber of heavy artillery it was, he finally came to his senses, this was a trick prepared by the devils in advance, and the devil's guard position was a bait, and the devils of this squadron were a bait.

The devil spent a lot of money and used a squadron to lure, the purpose was to wait for him to occupy this alert position, and then send a large number of troops to feint here, and when he sent troops to support, the heavy artillery would come, Li Tianxi can now be sure that every inch of this alert position, the devil may have carefully calculated, as long as his troops go up, they will be devastatedly strangled.

It's so cunning! It's so vicious! Li Tianxi's brows tightened, and he couldn't help but slap himself hard as he watched the officers and men of the first battalion struggle and moan in the artillery fire, but they couldn't help anything.

"Commander, commander......" A soldier rushed over, shouting as he ran, and seeing his sweaty and panting appearance, he knew that something unexpected had happened.

The soldiers who rushed were guided to Li Tianxi's side, and there was no salute on the battlefield, so they said directly: "Regiment commander, about a kilometer to the left of our battalion, a large number of devils were found, and there were also Iron King Ba. "The devil's bean tank is usually jokingly referred to as the "Iron King Eight" by the soldiers of the national army.

"What?" This news surprised Li Tianxi, before the attack, whether it was the division or the regiment, but the surrounding areas had been reconnoitred, and there had never been a large army of devils, but now, not only did there be a large number of devils' main forces and heavy artillery in the front, but even the left wing found devils and Iron King Ba, if the devils who were originally attacking the city on the right wing were also outflanked, what would happen, Li Tianxi really couldn't think about it.

"Regiment commander, regiment commander......" Another sweaty soldier ran over, and before he could ask, he said anxiously: "The scout reports that the Japanese siege troops suddenly stopped continuing their attack on Hengyang City, continued to retreat, and were coming this way. ”

I was really afraid of something, Li Tianxi still frowned first, his head was big at this moment, he really wanted to withdraw the first battalion, but under such intensive artillery fire, let them retreat, it would be to send them to the guillotine with his own hands. There are devils on the front and left sides now, and it is estimated that they are all devils and heavy soldiers, with their own regiment of soldiers, they will definitely not be able to stop it, in this case, it is naturally better to retreat immediately. But as soon as they retreated, wouldn't the battalion that occupied the devil's alert position be abandoned?

Giving up his subordinates and giving up his brothers, he Li Tianxi couldn't do this kind of thing, even if he put all the regiments in, it was impossible for him to give up a battalion.

Don't abandon or give up, although these words are not the military training of the Twelfth Army, everyone around Sun Yumin knows that this is the most important point for the boss.

If he ignores a battalion today, I am afraid that he will not be able to face the brothers in the future, and he will have no shame to lead a group of soldiers again, and he will have no face to stay by the boss's side. Although Li Tianxi is silent on weekdays, his temperament is extremely loyal, and he immediately made up his mind to hold this place, using a group as bait to lure the devils to besiege with heavy troops, so that the deputy division commander and the military seat have the opportunity to break the Japanese army in one fell swoop.

Li Tianxi is planning to fight to the death of himself and the group in exchange for victory in this battle. However, he only thought about one group, but he completely forgot about Dong Wenbin's tank troops.

When a regiment was urgently deployed, Dong Wenbin's tank unit had already galloped past the perimeter of the slope, and the yellow dust raised by more than a dozen tank vehicles was almost covering up all the black smoke on the battlefield.

Li Tianxi was also swept away by the yellow dust in the sky, and suddenly realized that he had forgotten Dong Wenbin.

Although the concept of armored infantry is very vague, he remembers that Sun Yumin said that a tank without infantry is a tiger without teeth, although the shock force is still there, but it cannot give the enemy a life-threatening blow.

Li Tianxi didn't think that Dong Wenbin would be in danger, but he kept Sun Yumin's words in mind, and immediately shouted to the second battalion commander who was nervously deploying: "Second battalion commander, take your troops to keep up with the tanks." ”

Dong Wenbin personally drove the tank and led thirteen M3 light tanks to the battlefield. Originally, he had fifteen M3 light tanks, but in the last battle, two were destroyed by the devil's plane, and now there are only thirteen left. But this is also stronger than the ordinary tank battalion of the national army, according to the configuration of the national army, a battalion has a maximum of six Soviet-made tanks, where can it compare with Dong Wenbin, in addition to thirteen M3 light tanks, there are also five M3 medium tanks, which is more than the combat vehicles of a group army, for example, the 24th Group Army, which is now rushing to Hengyang.

Dong Wenbin, who was still in the distance, had already discovered that a regiment had been bombarded by heavy artillery, and he wondered at the time, how could it be attacked by heavy artillery, but when he thought of the artillery of devils everywhere around Hengyang, it was not impossible to temporarily adjust the direction and coordinates of the shooting, so he didn't pay too much attention to it, although he knew that heavy artillery might pose a certain threat to the tank, but where could there be absolute safety on the battlefield. He was bent on breaking through the devil for Li Tianxi's group as soon as possible, so he didn't care too much about the fact that no infantry coordination would reduce the attack power a lot, and no infantry coordination would reduce the tank's own safety a lot. Especially after seeing the retreating devil soldiers, Dong Wenbin accelerated his speed without any scruples. The three Browning M1918A4 on the tank have already opened fire under his order, and there were originally five on the five tanks, but Sun Yumin ordered the demolition of two, and the boss thought that the consumption of bullets was too large and it was difficult to replenish. Although there are two less, it is still much higher than the attack power of the Devil Bean Chariot.

It can be seen with the naked eye that a lot of devil soldiers in the retreat have been defeated, Dong Wenbin has this confidence, as long as he pursues it, these devils will become the ghosts of his subordinates.

However, to his surprise, the fledgling devil soldiers jumped to a low place after running for a distance.

Unable to see people, the machine gun naturally could no longer play a role, Dong Wenbin didn't think about what was in the low place, nor did he order the chariot to stop, waiting for the infantry sent by Li Tianxi to advance together, and led the rest of the tank to drive towards the low place first.

The place where the devil soldiers jumped down was the anti-tank trench they had dug in advance, and the more than 100 devil dead soldiers in the trench who were tied with moon scarves and belts, all of them were like a boat of chicken blood, holding high the stinging mines, waiting for the Chinese army tanks to fall.

Seeing that he was about to reach the low place where the devil soldiers disappeared, Dong Wenbin suddenly woke up, he didn't think that the devil had a trap, but was worried about whether the tank could get down from that low place.

He stopped about ten meters from the anti-tank trench, and was about to be taken a look, when he suddenly saw a bald head with a scarf belt appear on the edge of the low place.

Dong Wenbin didn't know that there was an anti-tank trench in front of him, and he only stopped because he was vigilant, but it was this stagnation that made the devils in the trenches think that the tanks of the Chinese army had discovered this trap.

So, such a devil with a moon scarf on his head climbed up with a thunderbolt.

At first glance, when he saw the dead devil with a wooden stick tied to a moon scarf, Dong Wenbin was stunned for a moment, he didn't understand what these unarmed, just a wooden stick of the devil were here for, but seeing these people rushing towards this side with a wow, looking like they were not afraid of death, he immediately suspected that these people were here to die with his tank, but he didn't understand how a wooden stick with a triangular cone tied to his head could hurt the tank.

Although he had doubts in his heart, Dong Wenbin still gave the order to fire through the radio, and then hung up the reverse gear, hit the accelerator, and drove the tank car back sharply.

The distance was too close, despite the power of the machine gun, but there were still devil dead soldiers pounced in front of the tank car, Dong Wenbin in the retreat was driving the tank car, and he didn't pay attention to see an M3 tank on his right side was drilled under the car by two devil dead soldiers, only to hear two loud explosions with short intervals, and then the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

"Brigade commander, car number seven has been blown up!" The captain's exclamation came from the headphones.

"How is that possible!" Dong Wenbin couldn't believe it at all, these devils who climbed up, except for a stick in their hands, did not carry other explosives, if they said that the No. 7 car was blown up by that stick, they would not believe it.

"Be careful in car four, there are devils getting under your car!"

Another sentence came from the earphones, and before Dong Wenbin could ask, a huge explosion sounded not far away.

"Lao Liao, Lao Liao!" Dong Wenbin was really nervous, and shouted the name of the captain of car No. 4 several times in a row, but where could he get a response from car No. 4.

"Brigade commander, these are the dead soldiers of the devils, they are here to die with us, the stick in their hands is specially for dealing with tanks, be careful of their drills......." I don't know which tank the sound in the headset came from, anyway, before the words were finished, there was another loud explosion, and you don't have to guess to know that the one who spoke and the tank he was in were finished.

"Did the infantry come up? What about infantry? Dong Wenbin shouted hysterically, he suddenly regretted at this time, if a few more tanks were blown up, then his sin would be great, if he didn't blindly rush forward, but waited for Li Tianxi's infantry to advance together, how could he suffer such a loss.

No one answered his words, and there was no other sound in the headphones, except for the continuous loud noises coming from far and near.

Are all tanks reimbursed? Otherwise, why doesn't anyone respond to him? Dong Wenbin didn't dare to think about it, but his heart was like a mirror, and there would be no other results.

That's how it is in battle, when the first point is breached, the whole situation will change. Dong Wenbin's thirteen tanks could have been very good for each other, but the first destruction of the No. 7 car made the nearby tanks panic, so in a short period of time, all of them were destroyed one after another, Dong Wenbin's one was because it continued to retreat, so it was lucky to escape, but they did not completely escape from the danger, Dong Wenbin, who was slightly distracted, deviated slightly from the direction in the process of reversing, and retreated to a small slope, damn blocked the way to retreat.

The second battalion hurried slowly, but still could not keep up with the speed of the tanks, and before they reached the bottom of the slope, they heard a continuous loud noise.

At first, the officers and men of the 2nd Battalion thought that their own tanks were destroying the devils, but they soon found out that this was not the case, not only the sound of the American machine guns could not be heard, but the series of loud explosions was not the sound that the 37mm caliber vehicle-mounted guns on the tank could make.

Turning the hillside, the officers and men of the 2nd Battalion saw a scene that they could not believe: their own tanks, which had been unstoppable before, were blown into scrap metal one by one, emitting black smoke incessantly, and some even turned over one by one.

What happened to these tanks? How could it be like this, the officers and soldiers of the second battalion were stunned, looking around one by one, trying to find out the reason for this scene.

But they couldn't see anything except the pile of scrap metal tanks lying in front of them with the corpses of devils.

"There's a chariot here!" A sharp voice rang out among the soldiers of the second battalion.

At the sound of the voice, the second battalion commander saw that there was still a tank car left at the bottom of the slope, and the smoke exhaust pipe at the rear of the car was emitting thick black smoke, and in front of the chariot, seven or eight ghost soldiers with moon scarves tied to their heads, shirtless, holding a wooden stick, were circling from both sides to approach the tank.

"Kill these devils!" The gun in the hands of the commander of the second battalion opened fire first.

With the firepower of the second battalion, it is naturally enough to clean up a few devils in this area, no matter what kind of damage these devils can do to the tank, now they are all knocked down like dead fish under a random shot.

"Come and have a look!" The commander of the second battalion was eager to find out what had happened to the bottom of the tank, so he ran to the tank first.

But before he could get there, the tank car at the bottom of the slope shook violently, and then sped forward quickly. This is the driver adding a foot of oil, and the black smoke coming out of the exhaust pipe is a good proof of this.

The second battalion commander is stupid, what is the rest of the tank car for? It wasn't until the tank tracks ran over the downed devil soldier that he realized that it was the brother who drove the tank to vent his hatred.

The tank was too heavy and tracked, and when it rolled over the devil, the corpse became a pile of bloody flesh and mud, which was extremely cruel.

No wonder he, if it were himself, he might be crueler than him, the second battalion commander said in his heart. Although the tank unit was not the first regiment and the new 34th Division, it belonged to the 12th Army and was a friendly army. The misery of the friendly forces made him feel sympathy. The commander of the second battalion was about to run over to comfort the only remaining tank. However, suddenly, he saw the corpse of a devil who was lying on the ground, and suddenly jumped up, and with the wooden stick in his hand, he got under the tank in front of him.

Bang......

Thundered......
