Chapter 287: The Devil's Medium Tank

"Order the troops to disperse and flee, flee immediately, and go west, only by escaping to the mountains of western Anhui can we have any hope of survival. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Gu Zhutong held a telegram in his hand, with a hint of hope on his face, and at the same time a trace of remorse, but also mixed with some hatred.

But none of this is what he needs to think about at this time, and now his only task is to escape.

As for the broken troops, it is no longer necessary in his opinion, there are too many tanks and armored vehicles of the devils, even if countless soldiers bravely tie bombs to blow up the tanks, it almost has no effect on the devil's troops.

In addition, these troops did not have time to build fortified trenches, so they could not resist at all.

Yoshio Shinozuka sat in a sedan and smiled as he looked at the corpses of Chinese soldiers along the way.

The successive fiascos have dealt a devastating blow to the prestige of the devils, but this victory can restore their prestige without punishment.

Now Kenji Dohihara has begun to prepare for the so-called Advance Team, a school that originally trained police officers and has been turned into a secret spy training institution that mainly trains spies and secret service officers.

There are similarities with the devil's special operations unit, the only difference is that this special forces learn the Chinese language and habits, and it looks like the real Chinese.

The school of the devil has been established after the end of the Songhu Campaign, and its selection of students also has strict requirements, such as the height must be more than 1.65 meters and the weight must be controlled at about 100 catties.

In later generations, there was a column dedicated to filming a documentary of this school, and the Chinese people at that time were generally ten centimeters taller than the devils, but the weight was ten kilograms lighter than the devils, so the devils tried to be similar to the Chinese people when they were selected.

This also indicates that this devil force will pose a huge threat to China's troops.

In the current devil's army, the devil's advance team is the only unit that can fight with the special operations unit of the new First Army, although it is a grade worse than the combat effectiveness of the special operations unit of the new first army, but it can still play an important role in the battle, plus the devil's weapons and ammunition are complete, the scale of the devil's advance team is very large, and it is not at all comparable to Zhang Cheng.

It is precisely because of this that he is highly valued by the Japanese military department, after all, the special operations units of the New First Army pose too great a threat to the devils' troops, especially those devils of ordinary troops, who are basically unable to resist the attack of the special operations units of the New First Army when their numbers are about the same.

But if the spies and special service personnel trained in this school play an important role, then the Devil Army Department will definitely pour strategic resources into these secret agencies, which is a very dangerous thing for a general like Yoshio Shinozuka.

Fortunately, in this battle, many units of the Central Army were annihilated under their strategy, and with their marching ability, they would definitely be able to continue to catch up with the Central Army in the third theater and expand the results of the battle, under Shinozuka Yoshio's calculations, the Central Army would lose at least about 100,000 people in this battle, which can be said to be a very important victory.

The only fly in the ointment is that the New First Army is not involved, and if one or two more divisions of the New First Army can be annihilated, then it will make them crazy even more than annihilating the Central Army of the Third Theater of Operations, which has more than 100,000 troops.

The New First Army has now become a nightmare for all Japanese troops in China, with strong combat effectiveness and endless weapons, which make all the devils tremble, and after their elite troops lost more than 100,000, these devils are even more afraid of Zhang Cheng's New First Army.

This atmosphere spread rapidly among the Devil's troops, and the Devil's command had noticed the situation, and now they had to quickly defeat the troops of the New First Army in order to win back the morale of the army.

And this is also the reason why the devils have mobilized hundreds of tanks and more than 400 armored vehicles here, and their biggest target is not Gu Zhutong's troops, but the New First Army, which is the only Chinese army that can confront the Japanese infantry units head-on.

It is also the greatest threat to the Japanese army.

In the Japanese army's strategy and assessment, the special operations unit of the New First Army is the force that poses the greatest threat to them.

The lethality of the weapons of the new army is amazing, and even those modified trucks have great lethality against ordinary devil troops, so the main force they participated in this attack was a force composed entirely of tanks and armored vehicles.

They hoped to be able to run into the main force of the new 1st Army and then rely on their numerical superiority to crush the opponent.

For the current tank armored unit, both Shunroku Hahata and Yoshio Shinozuka have great confidence, because among these 100 tanks, there are 60 medium tanks, and the armor of this tank is thicker than the previous devil tank, and the tank guns equipped are also more powerful than before.

Therefore, they are confident that they will deal a devastating blow to the New First Army when they face the New First Army.

Of course, the firepower of this tank has really improved a little compared to its light tank, but its armor defense is still very pitiful, its armor defense is only 16 mm on the front, only 11 mm on the side, and the armor at the rear is only 9 mm, which is still a thin skin and meat filling.

However, Gu Zhutong's troops were different from the New First Army, they had no anti-tank weapons at all, so even if they were so poorly armored, they could not destroy the tanks, but were killed by the devil's armored vehicles and tanks.

The war was very fierce, and the troops of the Third Theater did not have any reinforcements, and before the Yangtze River was crossed, this area was all plains and mild hilly areas, and it was impossible for the New First Army to rush out to rescue them at the risk of annihilation.

Zhang Cheng is still staying near Wuhu, Wuhu is now unable to be stationed, although the devils do not have too many troops to occupy here, but the devils' warships are already there to shell the coast.

Zhang Cheng couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw this information, the devil's attack this time was well prepared, and the most important thing was that the weapons used by those devils also posed a huge threat to them.

The artillery power of tanks and medium tanks is very strong, even if Zhang Cheng modifies the tanks on his side, he still can't block the bombardment of 57mm tank guns, and the number of tanks of the devil is more than twice that of the tanks of the new First Army, and once the real battle is likely to lead to heavy losses of the armored brigade on his side.

Da Niu also frowned, he was the officer in the new army who knew most about tanks and armored vehicles except for Zhang Cheng, so he naturally knew the huge threat posed by this army of devils.

However, although he understands the combat effectiveness of tanks, he still lacks some knowledge and experience in how to deal with enemy tanks.

Suddenly, Da Niu suddenly froze, only to see Zhang Cheng's fingers pointing at an area, Da Niu's eyes flashed a fine light, and he looked at Zhang Cheng in shock.

Directly Zhang Cheng chuckled and said: "Here, this is the burial place of the devil's armored troops." ”
