Chapter 1713: The Beginning of the Collision

Behind the hill, perhaps for the US military, can't see, the artillery can't be extended, but Kawasaki Meijing is very concerned about the tank, thinking that behind the hill, it is not safe, after getting out of danger, behind the hill for a temporary rest, by the Chinese personnel, the tank was thoroughly inspected, the previous time was a little hasty, just a simple inspection, can be started, this time it took 2 hours, a thorough inspection of the captured tank.

To be honest, to be able to get out of the armored division, these soldiers came into contact with China's first-class tanks, which were not these rudimentary tanks, but tanks of about 40 tons, armed from beginning to end, and even a large amount of armor to protect against armor-piercing shells.

However, this US tank, as a whole, is only made of cast iron, and even the wheels have not been optimized a lot, just the simplest track, this kind of wheel, has a great impact on the speed of the tank, according to the horsepower of the engine they checked, the 25-ton tank can almost reach a speed of about 28 kilometers per hour, and the American tank is at least 3 kilometers slower.

For tanks, like battleships, speed is the first, when the speed of the tank exceeds 50 kilometers, ordinary artillery, can no longer threaten, a minute close to the speed of 1 kilometer, when the shells fall, the tank has already run out of a few hundred meters, even if there is any amount of advance, it is not omnipotent, after all, the tank can travel in all directions, and even make sharp turns, so the hit rate will be reduced a lot, that is, the bazooka can deal with, but the danger of the bazooka is very great, As long as the tanks are more attentive and have a certain amount of infantry protection, it is enough to deal with most of the bazookas.

The U.S. tank, the structure is relatively simple, even a little simple, but the simplicity also means that the durability is strong, itself is cast iron, there are no precision parts, may wear out, but after wear, it does not affect the use, as long as it can be started, basically there is no big problem, even if there are some small problems, it can be repaired quickly. At the end of the inspection, there were not too many problems with these tanks, and Kawasaki Meijing was very satisfied.

Since there is no problem with the tank, then it is not possible to stay too much on the front line, this hill is only about a kilometer away from the front line, if the US army is desperate to attack, maybe it will be able to attack here,

For the first time, nearly 300 tanks were transferred to the core of Juno, where there were a large number of anti-aircraft machine guns, which, after attempts, had a huge effect on most of the armor in 70 mm armor plates, and the rate of fire and accuracy were enough to ensure safety.

By calculating one by one, the final data is 294 vehicles, and even because of the urgency of time, they have no way to deal with it, they can only take the easiest to take, according to the data of the Chinese driver, as long as a few important parts are replaced, 35 can be saved, which is equivalent to more than 300 prisoners of the entire tank, but, because of the retaliatory fire of the US army, Kawasaki Meijing after getting close to 300 vehicles, there is no need to continue the adventure, with the lives of soldiers, to save one or twenty vehicles, Such an exchange is definitely not equivalent.

The 700 members of the Standing Guard only caused the loss of dozens of vehicles, but this time, 300 vehicles were captured at once, which not only allowed the Japanese army to have a deeper understanding of the real role of the US army's armored force, but also allowed Japan to train an armored force, which the knowledgeable Kawasaki Meijing will not let go.

At present, 6 days have passed, behind the beautiful scenery of Kawasaki, at least 12 tank trench defense lines, and nearly 100,000 large and small individual tank trenches have been constructed, and the tactics for the construction of these tank trenches have also been basically practiced.

This is simple, the tanks of the US army are still in the most basic state, the efficacy of their tanks can be seen at a glance, even the main body of the tank, there is no external armor and the like, it is how much is the thickness of the cast iron, it is how much, after sending technicians to carry out simple measurements, and after taking out a series of tests, the technical indicators came out, to be honest, for China, these technical indicators are very single, and even some are not in the stream, but for Japan, it is extremely strong, They never imagined that a chariot would be so powerful.

Looking at the Chinese side peeling back the cocoon, little by little every advantage, weakness, advantage, disadvantage of the tank, are clearly written, the Japanese side, can be regarded as a complete relaxation, before, the power of the US tanks, especially the attack of the 700 detachment, this is 700 soldiers who are not afraid of death, although for the high-level, these soldiers, in front of millions of people in the entire Japanese army, are nothing, but the American tanks they destroyed are also a very small part, now, Thoroughly understood the shortcomings of the tanks of the US army.

The biggest disadvantage of the U.S. tanks is actually the location of the fuel tank, the large-capacity fuel tank can make the tank refuel at one time The cruising range is very good, but it is also a huge flaw, these are unprotected, the fuel tank hanging outside, to a certain extent, this is an extremely dangerous bomb, as long as the tank is attacked, it can completely destroy the tank.

The fuel tank is not a tank, his thickness, at most 20-30 mm, is made of cast iron, as long as there are armor-piercing shells, even if it is a light machine gun shot, it is easy to penetrate the fuel tank, gasoline is a flammable item, once the fuel tank is broken by a bullet, it will definitely burst into flames, the sharp increase in high temperature, it is easy to burn through the tank, the light will cause the entire tank to suffer a huge blow, if it is heavy, simply the tank will become a torch.

In addition to the fuel tank, the seemingly huge tank, there are also a lot of weak links, some irregular solder joints, weak points between the structures, and many other structures, when the Chinese side, a little bit of analysis out, for the American tank, there is no longer so much concern, this is just a weapon, a weapon that is a little better than ordinary tanks, he is not impossible to deal with.

300 tanks, let Kawasaki Meijing, directly have a tank wing, they with the help of Chinese instructors, began to familiarize themselves with the operation of tanks, Delved's side, after the loss of hundreds of tanks, also carried out a lot of adjustments, the next day's offensive is more powerful, tank trenches, especially temporary tank trenches, have many shortcomings, as long as the artillery is concentrated, it can be dealt with.

Early the next morning, the U.S. military began to prepare for an attack, at least 3,000 artillery pieces, after preparation, began to attack the Japanese defense line, Japan's long-range artillery fire, also counterattacked, but the United States has long been prepared, all the artillery fire, have strengthened protection, even if the Japanese artillery fire, than the United States firing range, can not shake the U.S. army, the United States fought for two hours, almost ploughed the Japanese front line, at least fired tens of thousands of shells.

The roaring artillery fire, the Japanese positions were enveloped, of course, including the tank trenches, even at night, Kawasaki Meijing has rearranged the tank trenches, under the attack of the artillery, there are also large areas of damage, although there are still a lot of tank trenches, but can not have much of an obstruction effect on the tank, after seeing all this, the tank rushed up.

Kawasaki Meijing for this situation, is also prepared, today is the last day, he has a full 2 kilometers of defense line, 3 tank trenches, if only to delay time, this is enough, in fact, 2 hours of artillery, just destroyed a tank trench, when the US army encountered the second, it had to stop, yesterday's lesson is still vivid, the tank meets the tank trench, if you rush, you can only fall into the tank trench, they maintain mobility, and did not suffer great losses, And he went back.

Then another 2 hours of artillery fire, only with artillery to destroy these tank trenches, can continue to advance, in such a tug-of-war, artillery fire has continued until 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the US tanks in this day lost little, about more than 100 vehicles, are lost under the attack of long-range superior artillery fire, most of them are irreparable losses, long-range artillery attack tank upper level is easy, to hit the track, it is not easy, most of them directly hit the core, the car was destroyed and killed.

However, the pace of the American army was not fast, only about 3 kilometers of the battle line was advanced, and Kawasaki Meijing even guarded a broken tank trench, about less than a square kilometer of defense, at 5 o'clock in the evening.

Although the loss of personnel and equipment today is much less than yesterday, a lot of losses have been lost in energy, and Delved stopped at about half past five o'clock. It wasn't until the U.S. troops stopped attacking and even withdrew from their positions that Kawasaki Meijing breathed a sigh of relief.

Delved's attack, really strong, almost against the position of Kawasaki Beauty's waist socket, if the US offensive, if it lasts for another 1 hour, Kawasaki Scenery may no longer be able to support, a large number of tanks and the attack power of the regular army of the United States, really beyond Kawasaki Beauty's expectations, if today is not the last day, I am afraid that Kawasaki Scenery can only use personnel to resist the offensive of the United States.

At night, it is the best line of defense in this era, as strong as the armored forces of the US army, and it is impossible to fight at night, especially since Japan still has the strength to deal with tanks, and the tank trenches in the day are enough to pose a huge threat to the unprepared US armored forces, let alone at night.

Delved thought that it was still early, if China came by sea to transport bazookas, at least half a month, this is only 7 days, he has enough time to attack, now the tank is a key factor, if the tank in this battle, if the loss is too much, maybe it will really not be able to capture the Japanese position.

In the dead of night, the 4 divisions located on the position got the order of Kawasaki Meijing and began to retreat, of course, when leaving, they also left many traps, such as mines, which were carried forward by China and taught to Japan cheap weapons, at least 30,000 were buried by Kawasaki Meijing, and after Japan's complete retreat, this position became densely covered with mines.

Looking at the familiar position, Kawasaki Meijing is the last group to retreat, to be honest, although he successfully completed the task and blocked the powerful armored convoy of the US army for 7 days, but it was really the time he blocked, but it was only 2 days, 4 divisions, the most elite Japanese army, but blocked the US army for 2 days, or on a solid defensive line, this can not be called a victory, but after seeing the power of the US tanks, especially the captured tanks, he knew that the destructive power of tanks for a fixed line of defense, He is also full of expectations for the tank wing, this is the direction of the development of the army, but the United States seems to have gained insight and did not advance in a loud way, even if there are two tank trenches behind, it has not fallen into any tanks, so that Kawasaki Meijing's idea of continuing to capture tanks has failed, which is probably his only regret.

Japan retreated quite thoroughly, on the third day, Delved felt a clear difference, the progress was very smooth, the last piece of defense, in Delved's view, should be more difficult, maybe the US army has to pay a huge price, to be able to take, but it is like a bamboo, but after the take, when occupying the position, there was a problem, many people touched mines, although mines are a new thing, but understand, after the discovery of countless mines laid by Japan, Delved decisively abandoned the idea of continuing to occupy the position, and instead set up camp elsewhere.

In 2 days, they took a lot of positions, which made Delved a little excited, although this was only a very insignificant step into Alaska, but the intensity of their contact, the Japanese army was very combative, as long as it continued, it should be able to achieve victory in the future.

Delved didn't know what he was facing next, in the defense line of Kawasaki Beauty, at most 3 anti-tank trenches were arranged, or simply constructed, after all, under the nose of the U.S. military, to build this, it is more difficult, behind Kawasaki Beauty, because of the shelter of the hill, they even used large excavation tools, including excavators, to build at least 36 tank trenches, and the small individual tank trenches are more than 10,000, and the defensive strength of the defense line is not much stronger than where Kawasaki Scenery is, However, for the defense of armored forces, it is much larger, this is specially prepared for armored forces, this is the real collision between Japan and the United States, and the beautiful scenery of Kawasaki before is just an appetizer.
