"Whew!" Suddenly, a shell whistled over the head of the American commander, and everyone involuntarily shrank their necks.

The shell landed not far behind the Japanese tank, where it exploded, kicking up a cloud of dirt.

The artillery support of the U.S. army has arrived, and this is also the fastest part of the U.S. army's support. The 155 mm caliber howitzer applied for by the regimental headquarters was timely and effective!

"Boom!" The second shell landed farther away, apparently in a hurry, and the accuracy of the American artillery fire dropped considerably.

These shells fell, so the Japanese army also confused, they have seen the power of American artillery, so they also know that this attack of their own may become difficult.

However, the Japanese counterattack forces were not completely without opportunities, and their previous advance had allowed their attacking troops to blend into the American positions, which allowed them to temporarily escape the danger of being covered by artillery fire.

Tanaka Shaosa was in his tank, shouting frantically, letting his men continue to slaughter American soldiers.

Because he had not yet seen the American tanks, he focused all his attention on attacking the American soldiers and helping his infantry to seize the American positions.

This made his attack very efficient, the two trenches had been cleared, dozens of American soldiers were killed, and the Japanese were inserted into the American positions like a wedge.

"Left side! That side on the left! He ordered loudly, alerting his commander that there was U.S. military activity on the side of his tank.

Pressing the button that turned the turret around, the Leopard's slightly massive turret began to spin, and the slender barrel swayed through the not-so-spacious jungle terrain, scraping off many branches.

"Suddenly! Dodo! "Coaxial machine guns were originally used to correct artillery fire, and now they are also used as a tool for slaughtering infantry.

The two machine guns on the top and bottom of the Leopard tank continued to shoot out tongues of fire, and the American soldiers were constantly hit and fell.

Not far behind the Leopard tank, two American shells fell, sending the attacking Japanese soldiers into the air as if to vent their anger.

"Fire! Keep firing! "In the cramped turret, Tanaka Shaoza has already killed his eyes, and he has no intention of returning alive this time.

This time it was originally a decisive counterattack he applied for, and the Leopard tank he commanded was also the most powerful counterattack force that the Japanese army could take out now.

The other tank was supposed to be used in this counterattack, but unfortunately it broke down a few hours before departure, and the tank under the command of Tanaka Shosa was left to attack alone.

After all, the Japanese army no longer has maintenance parts, and the "defect" of the Leopard tank's over-reliance on logistics support is indeed a headache for the Japanese army.

Some of the maintenance parts that come with the car have long been consumed during training, while others have been discarded as cumbersome.

Tanaka's Leopard tank flaunted its might on the U.S. position, and was unstoppable, and soon broke through the third line of U.S. trenches.

It thrust a little further forward and was the core of the defense where the company headquarters of the American infantry company was located.

Unfortunately, it was at this time that American tank units rushed to the site where the battle broke out and participated in the battle.

While Tanaka was concentrating on the American infantry, his tank was hit by a shell flying from a distance.

The huge impact caused his tank to shake a little, and the opponent did not penetrate his armor, but it reminded him that there was a real enemy coming!

In the jungle behind the U.S. troops, a tall U.S. tank also crashed through a mass of bushes, revealing its massive body.

The M3LEE tank appeared on the battlefield, although this tank was no match for the Leopard tank, but it was not one in number!

Next to this American M3LEE tank, another tank of the same model also drove out of the bushes, and the 75 mm caliber gun on the hull pointed majestically ahead.

“！” As soon as it came to a stop, the small-caliber anti-tank gun above the hull of the American tank spewed out a puff of white smoke and fired a shell.

The second flying shell also hit Tanaka's Leopard tank, but this shell did not penetrate the Leopard's armor.

The shell only left a not-so-shallow crater in the armor on the side of the Leopard turret, but it did not cause any fatal damage to the Leopard.

There were many more howitzer shells that fell behind the Japanese troops, blocking the support and movement of their follow-up troops.

The superiority of the American army's firepower had been brought into play, and the Japanese counterattack had become difficult and the pace of advance had slowed down.

However, the Japanese troops who had already invaded the American positions were still very fierce, desperately expanding their gains and killing as many American soldiers as possible.

In some of the trenches, American soldiers were already fighting Japanese soldiers with bright bayonets, using the primitive method of hand-to-hand combat to determine who would survive.

"Right ahead! Behind the American positions! American tanks! Tanaka saw the enemy through the periscope and reminded his gun commander loudly.

The turret of the Leopard tank was once again rotated, and the 75 mm caliber anti-tank gun was again pointed at where the enemy was.

"Armor-piercing shell loading! Fire! "Following Tanaka's order, the loader shoved an armor-piercing shell into the chamber, and the Leopard gun's gun emitted a cloud of white smoke and fired a deadly shell.

"Boom!" Because of the haste in which the fire was fired, the shell did not hit the American troops, and only hit a short distance from the side of an M3LEE tank.

The starter missed the target, and Tanaka had to grit his teeth and continue to order, ready to fire a second time.

Because of the absolute difference in numbers between the two sides, at this time, at least 3 shells had already hit the armor of the Leopard tank where Tanaka was located.

Even if it did not pose a mortal threat to the Leopard tank, the impact and knocking of these shells also annoyed Tian Zhong.

He really didn't want to watch this counterattack where he risked his life, so he stopped in this position.

Before leaving, he also fantasized that he could break through the American positions, lead the infantry to expand the results, and finally push the battle line back 1 to 2 kilometers to the south.

But now, he has not even broken through the defensive position of an American infantry battalion, but has only penetrated the defensive area of most of the infantry company.

"Yaga! Damn the Yankees! Damn the Yankees! Tanaka, who was furious, cursed anxiously inside the tank.
