Dai Peng swore that he could hold on for two months? In fact, yesterday he had already sent the division guard battalion to the east of the city, in fact, Zhang Xuewu also knew Dai Peng's intentions, because the new Fourth Division of the Youth Army, which was reinforcing Chaoyang alone, was now surrounded by the Yue Army, so the reinforcements from Chengde must first rescue the besieged Fourth Division of the Youth Army.

It is very obvious that he is sending reinforcements at the encirclement point, but in the face of the menacing strategic overall deployment of the Yue army and the implementation of precise tactics, Zhang Xuewu can only grit his teeth and send the new 4th Division and the new 7th Division of the Youth Army to Chaoyang for reinforcements.

In fact, the defense system of Chaoyang Fortress is indeed extremely strong, but Chaoyang Fortress as a whole is a kind of arc structure fortress with a wolf mountain as the core, and all the 150 mm howitzers equipped with it cannot cause damage to the main fortifications of the defense line at all, and the only single fortification that can pose a huge threat to Chaoyang's single fortifications is only 3815 mm field heavy cannons.

Just like the famous Macedonian defense line in Europe, Chaoyang Fortress also has its weaknesses, that is, the east of Chaoyang Fortress, Chaoyang Fortress used to be covered from the flank with two or three divisions of troops, and most of the firepower fortress groups were concentrated in the west.

Zhang Xuewu can be said to know very well about the Chaoyang Fortress, Dai Peng even if he does not say the actual situation, he is very clear, after all, he also participated in the design of the Chaoyang Fortress, and also supervised the renovation work for a period of time, with its reserves of materials to hold on to two years are fine, but the Daling River is frozen, the flank lacks covering troops, and the army can easily drive straight into the east of the city to attack its soft underbelly.

Once the east of the Chaoyang Fortress is broken through, the army will be able to attack the core main position of the Wolf Mountain Fortress, and there are many underground passages to the Wolf Mountain Fortress Group, it is difficult for the defenders to carry out a comprehensive defense, if the army is broken into the main underground fortifications, the consequences will be catastrophic.

The 10th, 22nd, and 35th Divisions under the jurisdiction of the Second Front Army of the army Isoya Ryosuke were launching an unprecedentedly fierce attack on the newly formed Fourth Army of the Youth Army held by Ling Yuan, because Isoya Ryosuke knew very well that if this attack could not overcome Ling Yuan, then the only thing that awaited him was to resist step by step.

The tactical task has changed from encircling and annihilating the enemy's reinforcements to being equipped with echelons to block the entire line and ensure the safety of the troops of the First Front Army attacking Chaoyang, and the Zhang Xuewu Department of the 10th Central Theater seems to have been fully engaged in the counterattack, and within a range of 60 kilometers centered on Chaoyang, the two armies fought fiercely all night long, and the sound of artillery, gunfire, and muffled explosions resounded in the sky.

Zhang Xuewu has always believed that the root of the lack of offensive spirit of the Chinese team lies in the lack of weapons and firepower, and now it seems that the main reason for the lack of offensive spirit of most of the Chinese team is in the generals, and a group of sheep led by lions can defeat a lion led by sheep? In Zhang Xuewu's view, this is pure nonsense.

However, many commanders do lack the spirit of attacking, and Zhang Xuewu does not deny this, but among the senior commanders of the various departments of the 10th Theater, such as Tang Ziqiang, Zhanyang, Ye Yunfei, Zhang Lingfu, and others, they all have a strong sense of attack.

Zhang Xuewu has already put the two armored divisions into the battle, and the third armored division is still in Baotou to complete the army, and the troops are conducting the final test and tactical training of the new tank, about the iron cavalry tank is a big secret of Zhang Xuewu, all the information related to the iron cavalry medium main battle tank is blocked by Soviet experts, Zhang Xuewu is worried that if the iron cavalry tank is exposed too early, it will trigger an unpredictable butterfly effect, Zhang Xuewu can be ahead of the trend of the times in the conceptual design of tank combat vehicles, but the basic metallurgy, chemistry, and manufacturing industry are too far behind the behemoth that integrates national power like the Soviet Union.

During the Second World War, the quality of the Germans was overwhelmed by the number of the Soviets, not that the Soviets could not be sophisticated, but that their thinking on military construction equipment was different from that of Europe and the United States, and that they used the base of their huge new industries, and the Soviet system determined that the political axe could use all the resources.

Just when Zhang Xuewu was hesitating whether to continue to increase troops against Chaoyang in order to achieve a quick victory, Dai Peng and Lu Yu squatted in the turret of the scarred Iron Cavalry Experimental Tank, and the dignified Chaoyang garrison commander served as Lu Yu's artillery commander? Colonel Gunner, Captain Commander, Lieutenant Communications Officer, Major Loader, it can be said that this experimental Iron Cavalry Medium Main Battle Tank has set a record for the most luxurious crew in history.

Dai Peng, who was counting the shells with half a cigarette in his mouth, said helplessly: "There is only one armor-piercing shell left, and the high-explosive grenades and armor-piercing shells are long gone. ”

Lu Yu checked the machine gun bullets, the last bullet chain, but the anti-aircraft machine gun was cut off by a grenade from the army a day ago, pulled out his personal pistol and looked at the magazine, and pulled out a few P-18 submachine guns under the rear seat, and at Lu Yu's feet were more than a dozen TNT explosive blocks, which was the last resort to ensure the final destruction of the Iron Cavalry experimental tank, and it was also the last way for the Chinese [***] people to defend their honor.

I hope I don't need these things! Lu Yu groped all over his body and found the last crumpled cigarette!

Lu Yu looked at the anti-aircraft machine gun in the turret, four of the eight jackal light tanks were completely destroyed by the large-caliber grenade hits of the Yue army, and all the crew members were killed, and the remaining tanks used the wreckage of these four tanks as a cover to block the combat vehicles and infantry of the Yue army who were trying to break through from the breakthrough position.

Although there were constantly small groups of troops from the breakthrough successfully infiltrated into the city, but most of the army was killed at the breakthrough, resulting in the breakthrough being blocked by layers of corpses, and even the 95-type light tanks that the army was proud of its mobile surname could not be opened, and in desperation, the army had to dispatch a death squad to drag the corpse every night, and the defenders fired back with a mortar, and the army often dragged away the corpses as much as they left, and finally the army carried forward its spirit of always annihilating people to the end. Heavy artillery repeatedly bombarded the breach, not only expanding the collapse area, but also blowing up all the corpses at the breach.

After Lu Yu took a deep breath, he handed the cigarette to Dai Peng and said, "Commander Dai!" Are you too dangerous here? Let's go back to Wolf Mountain Fortress! Here we are, please rest assured! ”

Dai Peng took a puff and spit it out in the turret with turret in the turret, as if reminiscing about the nicotal lilac that he was reluctant to give up, and said after a long time: "If you can find another gun commander as good as me, I will go back!" Besides, I have already given the final order, there is a fortress to defend a fortress, there is a room to hold on to a room, all departments stop reinforcing the east of the city, hold on to wait for reinforcements, I am the commander of the garrison, if I don't fight at the forefront at the critical moment, shout empty slogans and let others shed blood and sacrifice? Do you fantasize about living to the end? That's a coward's behavior, victory will never belong to a coward, and Chief Zhang handed over the Chaoyang Fortress to me, I can't watch the fortress fall to the ground, when I live, the military flag will fly high! Swear to the last five minutes! ”

Dai Peng's words made the other three people in the car slightly stunned, the meaning of stopping reinforcements is probably clear, that is, the east of the city really can't hold it, due to the blockade of the army's artillery, the reinforcements need to pay a lot of price to block the army, Dai Peng's first garrison division is only a garrison division of the second brigade, in addition to sticking to the various support points of the fortress, there are really not many mobile troops that can come out.

The words "reinforcements" and "victory" are constantly tormenting the officers and soldiers who are waiting for the army to attack, but no one dares to despair here, because as long as they are still resisting in Chaoyang Fortress, their relatives are safe in the rear, and as long as the bayonets of Yue Kou have not yet pierced into the chest, they must fight to the end, which is the duty of a soldier, but also the duty of a man.

Dai Peng took a deep breath, reluctantly handed the cigarette to the loader and said, "I said that this iron cavalry tank really has no fucking advantages besides being strong?" Not to mention the narrow space in the car body, there are ventilation devices on the hounds, is this stunned? And this planetary hand-cranked rotation mechanism sinks to death, and the motor motor is also insufficient! ”

Lu Yu smiled helplessly: "Our group is the suspension system test group, as long as it is a test off-road surname, God bless those pig heads to debug the artillery for us, otherwise it can only be used as a target, it is normal for the tank to be in a parked state and the motor output is insufficient, but this planetary hand-cranked direction mechanism is indeed a little speechless, at most three weeks the arm will be numb, and my most record is only to shake five times." ”

When the last bit of cigarette was consumed in Lu Yu's mouth, almost burning Lu Yu's mouth, Dai Peng sighed helplessly: "The last cigarette, right?" ”

Lu Yu nodded and said, "The real ammunition is gone!" It is estimated that those jackal light tanks may not have much ammunition! ”

The word "out of ammunition" caused a temporary silence in the tank, and suddenly, a face covered with gunsmoke and blood appeared in the hatch of the turret, and the young man wearing the rank of second lieutenant said in surprise: "Commander Dai? Why are you here? Too dangerous here? ”

Dai Peng dragged the second lieutenant into the car and said with a smile: "There is another nosy Lu Yu, don't stand on the turret, be careful of your own snipers." ”

The second lieutenant saluted in the narrow space and said: "The inferior army, guarding the headquarters of the seventh company of the first regiment, wants to build a position nearby and cover the flank of the tank, but our troops are too small, and we are squeezed out of the street fighting on the left flank. ”
