Chapter 1711: Stealing a Tank

Zhang Tianyou had already instructed that for the US tanks, as much as they could, more than 400 of them were recovered, and how much combat effectiveness there were, not to mention that the bazookas could easily deal with them, let's just say that the Chinese side has too many weapons that can be dealt with, such as anti-aircraft machine guns, even if they are 12.7 mm anti-aircraft machine guns, which are enough to deal with these rudimentary US tanks, not to mention more anti-aircraft machine guns.

It is impossible for hundreds of drivers to deal with all of these tanks, the weight of a tank is as high as 25 tons, according to the fact that one person can lift 200 kilograms of things, such a tank, it takes at least 100 people to be able to lift, even if it is just filling, it also requires a considerable amount of strength, according to the length of 2.1 meters, the height of 2.7 meters, this space is really not small, even if it is a strong laborer, it will take a lot of time to be able to fill the gap between them.

In a certain situation, they only play the role of a teacher at most, and the rest, the coolies are Japanese soldiers, under the invisible trenches, at least half of the soldiers of the division are busy and nervous, they use all the methods they can think of, fill the bottom of these tanks, this point, are carried out quietly, a few kilometers away, there was a slight movement here, and it is not easy to alarm the American side, just civil engineering, not afraid of the US military to see it, of course, If the U.S. military launches a wave of charges at this moment, it will bring huge damage to Japan, and it is even possible to break through the defense line, but it is a pity that at this moment, the United States has not launched a general attack on the defense line.

At this moment, Delved did not pay attention to the defense line, but was thinking about the problem, a long trench was enough to block the charge of thousands of tanks, this was a problem they had never thought about before, but it happened, so easily, so helpless, if this problem could not be solved, it would be a huge blow to the next offensive of the United States, maybe it would really not be able to break through the Japanese defense line.

More than 400 tanks, 12,000 casualties, not very few, compared with a large-scale battle, it is really not much, but what will happen to such losses, a position of less than 1.2 kilometers, pay more than 400 tanks, according to this calculation, to capture the entire defense line on the periphery of Juno, 8,000 tanks are not enough, this is still the premise that everything goes well, which makes Delved unacceptable.

Delved and the officers of the armored forces are all professional officers with excellent strength, especially the understanding of armored forces, maybe in the war, no problems were found and adjustments were made, but after thinking about it carefully, the principle of these trenches is very simple and simple, that is, beyond the range of the center of gravity, the tank moves forward, and the distance that can cross the obstacle is limited, and the US army also tried, at most it is a 2-meter-wide trench, the tank can cross, and if it is longer, it will not work.

The Japanese side took advantage of this by using a trench of more than 2.5 meters, the depth should be more than two meters, and with the help of this so-called tank trench, it was enough to resist the tank offensive of the US army, and more than 400 tanks were almost lost here.

If this problem is not solved, the offensive of the US army will always be hindered, and to a certain extent, it will never be able to break through Juno's defenses, although Juno is a small place, but in the eyes of the US military, after the construction of Japan in the past time, a huge system of fortifications has been formed, and if it is taken here, it will be no less than the point.

The tank is to break through Juno, the army's forced attack, not that it can't be taken, but the price paid is too great, but the army has encountered the problem of tank trenches, think carefully to solve this problem, in fact, it is very simple, increase the length of the tank, you can easily overcome this problem, but all tank parts are standard parts, if you want to adjust, it takes time, then there is only one way, is to use artillery to destroy the trenches.

On the entire battle line, there are many trenches, and it is not impossible to use artillery to destroy the trenches, but compared with the trenches that can be seen everywhere, no one does this, but now, under the premise that this trench has a huge lethal effect on the tank, it must be destroyed, and even if the subsequent reconnaissance finds that there is a huge trench that can trap the tank, it must also be destroyed together, and only by destroying these can the tank be ensured.

It is only a trench within 1 meter, which is very difficult to reach for long-range artillery fire, and at a distance of 5 kilometers, or even 10 kilometers, hitting a target of less than 1 meter is a difficult problem for any long-range artillery fire that slaps in the face. When the width of the trench reaches a certain level, the length reaches a certain level, artillery coverage becomes a possibility, although the use of a large amount of artillery fire, will be exposed to the Japanese artillery fire, but make sufficient preparations, for example, to add necessary protection for the artillery, such as sandbags, etc., can effectively resist the killing of the opponent's artillery, and it is still possible to persist in an hour's artillery bombardment, which is also where Delved's confidence lies.

There is no need to destroy all the tank trenches, only to destroy the corresponding positions in a concentrated manner, and to destroy the tank trenches that are more than two meters deep, with soil covering or simply destroying the edges, forming a passage or depression, as long as the tanks can pass through, it is enough to deal with the tank trenches with a point to break the surface, as long as a small part of the tanks can cross the obstacles of the tank trenches and enter the core area, for the US army, it is a victory, it is enough to break the Japanese defense line.

Today's World War, the losses of the U.S. army should be greater than that of the Japanese army, but the destruction of a certain degree of position, the most important thing is to determine that the Japanese side has no bazooka, this is the biggest victory, Delved for the European battlefield, the British and American armored forces for the German attack, the power of the bazooka, still fresh in the memory, it was a near-devastating blow, hundreds of thousands of bazookas, countless rockets are flying, more than 20,000 tanks, just like that, were destroyed in front of the front, Directly exposed the unprotected infantry to the German superior artillery fire and machine guns, millions of people, in a short period of time, were slaughtered, and rivers of blood flowed, which was the greatest loss suffered by the Entente so far, and none of them even had a huge impact on the entire Entente.

After this war, Britain's armored forces were cleaned up, and until now, the application of armored forces has not been proposed, that is, the United States, with its deep pockets, in line with the principle of not wasting it, formed armored forces, which retained the armored forces and has been effectively developed, otherwise, there would not have been this trip to Juno in Delved.

Wasted a day's time, paid a relatively large price, these are not problems, as long as the Japanese side, there is no large-scale equipment bazooka, for Delved, it is a huge victory, which means that his follow-up tactics can be achieved in Juneau, as long as the measures of the Japanese side are gradually cracked, the tank will be crisscrossed on the Japanese defense line, from the traditional tactics to the tank forwarding, this is the way he is sure to fall, it may also be vetoed, but in this battle, he must insist.

Attacking the opponent's defense line with heavy artillery is definitely a better way, the staff officers discussed for a long time, and decided that this idea is to fight for hunger, and Delved is also quite supportive, there is no obstacle to this method, and the method that has been thought of is about to convey the order, the guard stumbled in a little, and said in a little panic: "Oh no, tank, tank moves!" ”

In a hurry, the guard's expression, a little incoherent, made Delved not understand what he was talking about for the time being, but then, the guard stumbled and said that it was they who abandoned the tanks on the front line of the Japanese army moved, and even Delved, who had always been cautious and composed, was a little moved, and the abandoned tanks on the front line were moved, what does this mean, on the side of the US army, there must be a plan to rescue those tanks, and there is only one result, the Japanese want to get these tanks.

This is absolutely impossible, Delved's face changed drastically, and he immediately walked out of the camp in three steps and two steps, picked up the high-powered binoculars, and looked at the scene 10 kilometers away, he had to personally determine what kind of tactics the other side used.

Out of the camp, I vaguely heard the roar, but the armored troops, the roar is normal, although they completely withdrew, but some tanks were slightly injured, even the engine was cleaned up and the like, the sound of the engine sounding was too normal, because of this, when the roar just sounded and it was very slight, he didn't care.

Obviously, the movement of the Japanese front line is very loud, and the roar of hundreds of tanks has made the officers and soldiers of the entire front line notice, they are not familiar with the armored force, I don't know why, it is obviously a tank in the hands of the US army, and it is also a tank on the battlefield, which has been abandoned, why is it being moved by the Japanese, but whether it is intuition or the instinct of the officer, they will notice that this is not a good thing.

Now, at least more than 200 tanks have poured out of the trench, probably retreated to a few dozen meters in front of the trench, and are changing direction, they have completely broken away from the obstacle of the tank trench, they have retreated to a sufficient position, if there is a passage in front, they just need to speed up, they can pass.

Delved knows very well that it should be the tanks they abandoned to the front line of the Japanese army, which were used by the Japanese army, although I don't know why, Japan can have the ability to drive their tanks, but these big guys, can not fall into the hands of the Japanese so easily, it is a strong defense line itself, if there is the help of tanks, maybe, there will be other changes, the US army has no ability to deal with armored forces, if Japan gets a few, or even a dozen, this is no problem, once it exceeds 100, This is a big problem.
