On the east bank of the Willow River, on the rebels' positions, the defenders who had not yet recovered suddenly found that the mines aimed at the infantry did not seem to work at all against the new weapons of the Ming army. When the barbed wire fences in the distance were crushed and toppled one after another, their hearts were filled with fear of the unknown.

Machine gun bullets hit these tanks, and they didn't do any damage at all, at least when they hit them head-on, they didn't stop at all, and continued to move forward as if nothing happened, continuing to fire at the rebel positions with machine guns and machine guns. They advanced very fast, and without giving the rebels much time to probe themselves, they had already captured a large area of the riverbank, and even threatened the rebel area where the Janissaries crossed the river from the side.

What's even more frightening is that these monsters of the Ming army seem to be endless, and soon the rebels found at least 10 of these steel behemoths, and then the number climbed to 20. These monsters rampaged through the rebels' positions, breaking through and destroying as if they were in a no-man's land, and only slowed down their progress by breaking through two trenches in one go.

In the face of these invulnerable monsters, the rebel soldiers finally gave up a bit of luck and began to rout one by one, and the counter-attack, which was supposed to be successful, finally collapsed in front of the tanks of the new army.

Unlike the less professional tanks that were put into combat for the first time in human history in another time and space, the tanks in the hands of the new army are much more advanced, at least the armor of this tank is thick enough and the power is more powerful. And the 20 mm cannon is much more advanced and accurate.

In the chaos of the rebels, the Ming army finally gathered a regiment of tanks on the other side of the Liuhe River. The 40 No. 1 tanks were so densely engaged in the battle that the rebel defenses suddenly became shaky. However, because the surrounding rebels had more troops than the Ming army, the Ming army had not been able to take the main position for a while, threatening the entire defense line.

The Liuhe River contains a lot of sediment, and the terrain on both sides of the river is relatively gentle, with occasional small mounds and the like, and it is not steep and steep. Especially between Zhangwu County and Xinmin County, there is no steep terrain to defend, although in some positions the Ming army belongs to the back attack, under the cover of tanks is not so difficult. (Some people reported that the water of the Liuhe River was higher than the two banks, and Long Ling only found the current situation, whether it was so serious in 1830, please leave a message for advice.) ）

A large number of Ming troops poured across the pontoon bridge, and under the cover of tanks, began to enter the trenches of the rebels, where fierce battles began between the two sides. Soon the rebels found that under the cover of the tanks, the trenches they had relied on were now not very strong, and as the fire suppression on the tanks became more accurate and direct, thousands of rebel soldiers lost their lives before the Ming infantry arrived.

Of course, the rebels were not completely without gains, they were armed with several 13mm heavy machine guns, which were originally used to deal with the reconnaissance of the Ming army's aircraft, but now had to be used for temporary cameo anti-tank missions. However, after the first few attacks did not work, the rebels knew that their 13mm heavy machine guns could not penetrate the front armor of the new Ming army's weapons.

Soon they experimented with firing on the flank, which was mostly unsuccessful, until a machine-gun emplacement, which fired a volley of bullets from the flank and rear, hitting the tail of a No. 1 tank, that the rebels really found a temporary way to destroy the Ming tank. It's just that this method is too speechless - who can wait for the tank to rush over first, and then aim at the tail of the tank and fire?

"I surrender! Don't shoot! I give up! On the position that had already been crossed by the Ming tanks, a rebel soldier finally couldn't bear the pressure and raised his hands. He shouted surrender and threw away his weapon, and dozens of people around him similarly gave up resistance, shouting the clear word surrender to the Ming army.

As if a drop of ink had been dripped into a glass of white water, or as if a virus had spread through the crowd, hundreds of rebel soldiers soon raised their hands. They found that they could no longer rely on the trenches to wantonly slaughter the Ming army on the opposite side, but the Ming army was suppressing them with new weapons, and everyone was paid to eat together, and no one thought that they would really resist until the last moment.

Obviously, this is the best time to surrender, because there is no longer any need to hold on to the whole position, and more tanks of the Ming army are crossing the Liuhe River, and even a few tanks have attacked from the flank, helping the Janissaries who expanded the bridgehead to capture part of the river beach position. The second pontoon bridge has also been built, more Ming troops have begun to cross the river, and the battlefield situation has developed in a direction that is not expected by the generals of the Jin State, and no one can stop it.

While everything seems to be going well, there are still a variety of problems in some corners. For example, the 10 Ming tanks that were attacking the rebels' main defensive positions at this moment found that their 20 mm machine guns could not destroy the machine gun pillboxes reinforced with iron plates and cement.

Because of the distance, and the firing holes of the enemy's machine gun pillboxes were very narrow, several direct shots could not achieve the goal of destroying this firing point. Because of the smoke caused by the attack, the Ming army could only wait in place and observe the effect of the shooting. In the end, it was repeated several times, and it was not really possible to destroy this machine-gun bunker.

The problem of insufficient firepower of the main weapon made the Ming tanks stagnate in front of this position for a long time, and even during this time, because there was almost no advance, there was also a tank destroyed by artillery, which was also the second Ming tank destroyed in the whole battle. Later, the Ming tanks finally destroyed the only blockhouse in the vicinity and completely stabilized their position on the east bank of the Liuhe River.

The Janissaries who crossed the Willow River on the other side also encountered the problem of insufficient tank firepower, and their solution to the problem was more brutal, the tanks covered the attack, and the infantry rushed directly to destroy another reinforced concrete fortification with traditional explosive packs and grenades. At this moment of the battle, everyone knows that the Ming army has almost successfully crossed the natural obstacle of the Liuhe River and won the victory in this battle.

A few minutes later, the first meritorious service for the Ming army tanks to cross the river pontoon bridge, was destroyed by the rebel artillery, but only a few minutes later, the pontoon bridge built by the Praetorian Guard was also completed, a large number of Ming infantry and vehicles crossed the Liuhe River, began to expand the position on the east bank of the Liuhe River they occupied, along this position, 70 Ming tanks rolled up billowing smoke, towards the direction of Xinmin and killed violently.
