Chapter 585: Siberian Tiger

The Northeast Theater's attack on the DPRK is a full-line cutting attack, and there are three huge attack arrows on the Sino-DPRK border line.

In the west, it was the main offensive force, which went straight to the command center of the Korean Kwantung Army, and the auxiliary defense line in the middle cooperated with the western front to carry out offensive operations. The Eastern Front is a semi-defensive operation, because the northeast corner of Korea is the area of the former Soviet Union, that is, the land that Lao Maozi cut from the Qing Dynasty, and now it is also the territory of the Japanese. It is also more than 100 kilometers away from Vladivostok, and it is agreed that it is the object of the Japanese army's key defense.

North Korea is the pearl on Japan's head, and letting a US paratrooper regiment enter North Korea is already a big concession for Japan. And here, it is the land occupied by Japan from the Soviet Union, because of the alliance, although the sovereignty of these lands is still in Japan's head, but as the so-called short-handedness, the United States has continuously transported a large amount of weapons and equipment to the Japanese army, greatly strengthening the firepower of the Japanese army.

The Japanese side could not easily refuse the US plan to send troops to strengthen the defense of the northeast. And the Americans also moved quickly, starting from the mainland, along the coastline, sending American troops from the Sea of Japan to Vladivostok.

Therefore, on the battlefield of the Eastern Front, the soldiers of the Northeast Theater will face an opponent, and another is the Americans. Although the Americans' will to fight was 108,000 miles behind that of small Japan, their weaponry and equipment were several streets away from Japan.

The newcomer Americans, the American GIs who have always regarded themselves as the bosses of the Central Powers, also want to show their hands in front of their allies, and let the Japanese who beat them up in the past have a good look at how strong the American army is today.

In order to fight for a little more face. The United States, which has consolidated its status as the leader of the Central Powers, and the American troops that arrived in Vladivostok are the most elite fully mechanized troops in the United States.

China's sudden attack caught the Japanese by surprise, which made the Americans feel that the opportunity had come. As the commander-in-chief of the forces of the Northeast Asian Allied Powers, Patton immediately dispatched two armored divisions of U.S. troops to the front line after talking to Okamura Ninji on the phone.

As the head of the Kwantung Army, Okamura Ninji naturally has his own arrogance. Normally. There is no room for others to point fingers in front of your eyes. However, this time Okamura Ninji was unusual, when Patton proposed to let the American army go to the front line to help the Kwantung Army. Okamura Ninji didn't even think about it. I just agreed.

The reason is simple. Secondary, now is not the time to talk about personal honor and disgrace, the main point. He wanted the Chinese army to suppress the arrogance of the Americans and save them from being awesome. If the Americans had defeated the Chinese army, the result would have been better. Anyway, no matter what the result is, Okamura Ninji can accept it calmly.

However, when these American troops were already close to the battlefield, several explosions disrupted the rules of the American army.

The two long American armored units gradually converged when they were still twenty kilometers away from the area of the firefight, and in the dark night, two battalions of forty-four 105-mm self-propelled howitzers and one battalion of whistle organ rocket launchers mounted on trucks pressed on the rear. (The whistle organ is usually attached to the Sherman tank.) Against the snow-covered woods in the distance, the thick barrel of the cannon was raised with a "creak".

For the attack came to this forest.

"Shoot! Artillery fire covered! "As the US commander's artillery order was issued, dozens of steel beasts blasted a thick heavy shell out of the barrel after a tremor, and the dim night sky was immediately torn apart by a sharp sound, and a large mass of fire and hideous explosions sounded like thunder in the mountains and forests lined with tree trunks, shaking and falling countless snow.

The U.S. military, which had the advantage of firepower, began to give full play to its advantages, and every bombshell would turn a large area of mountains and forests into a ruined clearing, endless shrenchnel and debris filled the air, and no life could survive such an bombardment, and some small animals turned into fragments in an instant in terror.

"Hold on! It's a submunition cover right away! Give me a good squat! The Siberian tiger hiding in the anticline shook violently over more than 40 105-millimeter bombshells fired by self-propelled howitzers, and before it could catch a few breaths of fresh air, the terrifying whistle and rocket launcher bombarded out a large number of anti-personnel bombs and rockets, and the night sky immediately seemed to be a "steel rain", and the sound of crackling explosions and the sound of trees breaking and rocks bursting was endless.

As the ace representative of the special forces in the Northeast Theater, the Northeast Tiger Special Forces is composed of special forces in the Tiger Special Forces, one of the two professional special forces directly under the National Defense Forces. Strengthen military-scale special operations capabilities.

As a matter of fact, the Chinese armed forces have always had the habit of establishing special operations units, not to mention division-level units, even regiment-level units, all of which have their own special task units, which carry out tasks such as infiltration, sabotage, and reconnaissance behind enemy lines. With the addition of the Tigers, the special operations strength of many army-level units and group army-level units has been greatly enhanced.

And on the battlefield in the Northeast, the Siberian Tiger is a well-known squad, on a par with the poisonous wolf. And now, this special forces unit has been sent to this small passage between Vladivostok and North Korea. Because on the North Korean side, this passage has been cut off.

The Allied forces in the northeast lost contact with the North Korean army, and the Allied forces naturally would not let such a thing happen, and this passage must be opened. Siberian tigers are here to carry out reconnaissance and sabotage missions.

"Humph! Yankee! I had been expecting this trick for a long time! As the captain of the Siberian Tiger special forces, Xiao Jinteng squatted in a pit more than one meter deep, staring at the thick bulletproof steel plate above his head, and under the double protection of the helmet and bulletproof steel plate, the tens of thousands of submunitions sprayed out of the rocket will be completely ineffective.

A squad of Siberian Tiger special forces guarding this forest, led by Xiao Jinteng himself, gave the order to attack when he saw the advancing American troops. And report the situation here to the main forces in the rear. Of course, their attack naturally attracted a counterattack from the American army.

The dense submunitions swept across the mountains and forests in the blink of an eye, and the air was filled with the smell of violent death, and the only way to deal with the submunition attack was to crouch in a single bunker and put solid protection on top of your head, and other than that, it was a dead end.

"All in place! Get ready to clean up the old beauty! Xiao Jinteng stood up straight, and firmly inserted the bulletproof steel plate on the top of his head back into the body armor on his body, surrounded by the diffuse smell of gunpowder smoke and all kinds of powder that lasted for a long time.

"Whoosh!" A Siberian tiger hidden on the flank took the lead in the attack. After flying out of the packaging barrel, a new Chinese Red Arrow-1 anti-tank rocket launcher shot at a speed of 220 meters per second at the rear of the US army, which had just completed filling its ammunition. After about fifteen seconds of flight, a violent explosion reverberated in the wilderness.

The thin-skinned Whistle Organ rocket launcher of the U.S. Army was as fragile as a paper stack of artifacts in the Chinese anti-tank rocket launcher that could penetrate 200 mm of armor, and a full twelve freshly reloaded sub-rocket rockets completed a wonderful martyrdom in less than 0.1 second. The tyrannical roar not only burned the three American crew members into charcoal ashes in an instant. Even an infantry fighting vehicle twenty meters away was shocked by the shock wave of the explosion and flew more than a dozen meters. In the cracks of the shattered car, several seriously wounded American soldiers were engulfed in the flames that immediately ignited before they could even make a moan.

"Tom! Tong! "Two M6 tanks with 105 mm barrels twisted their turrets and fired two 105 mm high-explosive anti-personnel grenades at the place where the Siberian Tiger anti-tank rocket launcher was hiding, in the flash of fire. A dozen small trees and a large area of dirt and rocks were lifted into the air in just two seconds, and if the two Siberian tigers were running a little slower, the huge overpressure would crush everything into fine powder.

"Whoosh! Rumble! "The two Siberian Tiger anti-tank shooters who ran to the second concealed firing position fired the second Red Arrow-1 anti-tank rocket launcher after a little stabilization, and the long rocket artillery trail pierced the side of an M6 infantry fighting vehicle through the battlefield with a faint smoke and fiercely, and the huge impact force almost instantly pierced the M6 that was only welded with light metal alloy armor, with the rapid explosion of nearly 1,000 rounds of 25 mm ammunition and more than 20 tank guns in the body, The entire M6 was smashed to smithereens, along with the seven soldiers it was carrying.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! "Two U.S. infantry fighting vehicles that reacted quickly began to pour ammunition outward at a rate of 100 rounds per minute with their vehicle-mounted Brown 12.7mm heavy machine guns, and an entire area of mountains and forests was hit by the roaring hot warheads so that smoke and rubble were billowing, and the smell of gunpowder explosion and burning was everywhere in the air, clutching shoulders cut by fragmented shrapnel, and two Siberian tigers carried Red Arrow-1 launchers and ran to the third concealed firing position.

"Stop attacking! The anti-tank group retreated! Xiao Jinteng stopped the third attack of the anti-tank group in time, and the speed of the US army's counterattack was getting faster and faster, and if it forcibly launched a shot, it would be killed by heavy grenades.

"Attention! The enemy has heavy anti-tank weapons! Let the helicopter follow! Fast! The U.S. commander in an M1 tracked reconnaissance vehicle shouted desperately over the radio that for the U.S. Army, which is accustomed to strong fire support, even if it only deals with three or five sneak attackers, it must be supported by air firepower.

Did the United States have helicopters in WWII? This one has. In fact, in 42 years, that is, when China was 14 years old, the United States had its own helicopter, codenamed R-4. is a helicopter that can make a difference,

The R-4 is a two-seater with a main wing diameter of 11.58 meters, a maximum weight of 1,152 kilograms, a 185 hp piston engine, a cruising speed of 109 km/h, a range of 320 kilometers, and a ceiling of 1,524 meters. It can take off and land vertically, hover, fly forward, backward, fly sideways and descend without power, etc., and fully possess the flight characteristics of modern helicopters.

China's helicopters are in the limelight on the battlefield, especially on the ground. This also made the United States itch, because there was already a working helicopter in the country, and soon the R-4 was improved and equipped with a machine gun. As air-to-ground support firepower. Because of the different ages, the production process of helicopters, compared with fighter aircraft, is super simple, and even simpler for the powerful industry of the United States, so a large number of helicopters began to equip the US Army. Become a new branch of the U.S. Army.

The sound of rotors tearing through the air was heard in the night sky after a while, and a heavy armored division of the US army itself had nearly 120 helicopters, and at this moment there were at least more than 500 murderous helicopters gathered on the Korean Peninsula.

A full twenty-six heavily armed attack helicopters scrambled into the night sky from the two field airfields after hearing the call for support. In order to maximize the support firepower.

"Attention air defense group! Listen to me! Six in one volley! Shoot all the rocket artillery and retreat! Xiao Jinteng carefully identified the number and model of the US military helicopter group in the night vision device. It took less than five minutes for Lao Mei, who was shot out of the fire, to assemble 26 helicopter gunships.

"It's time to break the fast today!" A Siberian tiger gently opened the shooting safety on the Balbow-1 man-portable air defense rocket launcher in his hand, and quietly adjusted his breathing after aiming the light sight at the approaching helicopter in the distance. Just move your fingers. Then a small rocket launcher of a few hundred thousand yuan will blast a helicopter of tens of thousands of dollars into burning scrap metal.

"Boom!" A huge explosion rang out in the wilderness without anyone being prepared. Several U.S. soldiers searching the battlefield were unlucky enough to trigger the detonation device left by the Siberian tiger, and as about three kilograms of plastic explosives were detonated, a huge fireball with a diameter of more than ten meters and dense sharp shrapnel swallowed everything in a radius of nearly 1,000 square meters.

“fuck! Not ordinary troops! It is the elite of the Chinese army! The U.S. commander watched in amazement as several soldiers and an M6 infantry fighting vehicle were torn apart in the light of fire from the observation port of the M1 tracked reconnaissance vehicle. All kinds of steel shards roared and knocked all the shells of the armored vehicles to the core, and the chaos in front of them was already to the extreme, if all the sneak attackers hiding in the shadows were strangled as soon as possible, then the entire armored force might be sniped.

"Whoosh!" Under the cover of a huge firelight, another Red Arrow-1 anti-tank rocket launcher hit the US armored unit through the scorching night sky, and an M1 "Guardian" armored transport vehicle was blasted into a dazzling fireball in the violent explosion, and in the diffuse choking smoke, two seriously injured US soldiers stopped breathing after barely climbing out of the cabin.

The six Siberian tigers stood up abruptly and resolutely fired the crossbow-1 man-portable air defense rocket launcher in their hands, and with the activation of the infrared detector tracking system, six rocket launchers with a length of 1 meter, a weight of 7 kilograms, and a diameter of 45 millimeters swooped down ferociously at a speed of more than 600 meters per second toward the US helicopter a kilometer away.

“fuck! What is that?" the U.S. helicopter pilot tried his best to correct the direction of the flight, but it was all too sudden, and after less than seven seconds of flight, the first Ballist-1 rocket launcher kissed the front of an armed reconnaissance helicopter fiercely.

"Boom!" In the burst of firelight, dozens of sharp steel fragments easily passed through the bulletproof cockpit of the helicopter at a very high relative speed, and the two US military pilots just instinctively raised their arms to block the various fragments flying in front of them, and the body was pierced by various pieces flying sideways, just in the blink of an eye, the helicopter that lost control fell straight to the ground, this is the first US military helicopter killed by the Siberian Tiger, if you count the several armored vehicles that have just been destroyed on the ground, the Siberian Tiger has made the US military lose more than 100,000 US dollars, This is also the minimum goal that the Siberian tigers set for themselves before attacking.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! A series of explosions exploded in the night sky like summer thunder, and a dozen crossbow-1s instantly smashed seven or eight menacing American helicopters to the ground, and the shattered bodies easily knocked down a dozen American soldiers who could not dodge in a pool of blood after splashing in all directions.

"Anti-aircraft rocket artillery! Keep launching! Xiao Jinteng hid in the bunker, his eyes closely watching the changes on the battlefield, and as more Balbow-1s fired out of the launch tubes, the number of US helicopters also quickly dropped to single digits.

"Get around! Hold these bastards from behind! The U.S. commander roared desperately over the intercom, never before had he seen such a dense and precise attack, overhead was a huge fireball that was constantly detonating and all kinds of debris flying everywhere, and among the splinters of steel that were falling one after another, the five surviving helicopters drove all their lift behind the entire helicopter group to the side and rear of the Siberian tigers.

"Boom...... Rumble! The strong roar of the engines swept rapidly from the low altitude, and the two "Thunderbolt" fighters that the US troops rushed over to reinforce threw out two 50-kilogram bombs after adjusting their positions; as the two flames on the ground exploded, a Siberian tiger who had just finished firing the "Flying Crossbow" air defense rocket launcher was violently swept aside by the surging air waves.

"Apo! Knock it out! Others withdraw! Xiao Jinteng jumped out of the hidden trench and ran to the side of the Siberian tiger who was lifted away in a few steps, although it was not pierced by shrapnel, but the violent air wave still made the Siberian tiger faint straight to death.

"Lao Tzu fought with you!" After receiving the order, Apo rushed to a commanding height with two heavy snipers at full speed, and the entire sneak attack team had already fired all 30 anti-aircraft rocket launchers it carried, and the only ones that could effectively defend the air were only a few 20-mm heavy snipers in their hands.

Quickly rushing to a high ground, Apo quickly installed a full three-bullet magazine on the captured "Killing God" 20-mm anti-materiel sniper rifle, and just as the US "Thunderbolt" fighter plane circled in mid-air and was about to launch another attack, the night sky was already completely controlled by a super marksman.

"Tom! Tong! Tong! "In less than fifteen seconds for the first shot, Apo took three armor-piercing shells and three armor-piercing incendiary bombs in two magazines. Although the "Thunderbolt" is equipped with bulletproof steel plates in the nose and belly to increase the survivability of low-altitude flight, the three armor-piercing bullet-piercing bullets that accurately hit the engine of the lightning fan still beat the entire plane into smoke and crumbling!

If the plane is flying at high speed, the sniper rifle will not hit at all, and if the P-41 Thunderbolt is a high-speed jet fighter, the sniper rifle will not be able to do anything. But this Thunderbolt fighter was at a low altitude, preparing for a ground attack, and at night, the speed had dropped to the slowest level. So, if it is a good marksman, it is not impossible to hit.

However, the Thunderbolt did not crash, and although it was shot a few times, the plane was still under the pilot's control. The two rapid-fire machine guns spat out hundreds of 20mm bullets in an instant, and at the same time, a grenade exploded here, and countless columns of smoke exploded next to Po, and as a few pieces of shrapnel cut into his thigh, Po rolled out of the firing position with a shake.

"you old X!" Ah Po leaned against the tree, the God Killer Anti-Equipment Sniper Rifle in his hand before didn't know where it was rushed by the explosion waves, and he didn't care about the blood that kept churning outwards from his legs, after taking the other God Killing God 20mm large-caliber sniper rifle he was carrying in his hand, an armor-piercing blast bullet accurately shot at the thunderbolt that was still shooting wildly.

"Boom!" The fan engine of the "Thunderbolt", which had already withstood three armor-piercing shells, finally made a loud explosion after being hit by the fourth armor-piercing blasting projectile, and the night sky was once again shrouded in wonderful orange-yellow firelight, and in the large and small fireballs that exploded one after another, the entire P-41 Thunderbolt pierced the ground like a broken kite.

"! Lao Tzu took down the next P-41 Thunderbolt! Who has my cow! As the former Tigers special forces, the top three ultra-accurate shooters in shooting skills, and the first person in the world to shoot down a fighter with a semi-automatic firearm.

"Withdraw!" Xiao Jinteng carried the unconscious Apo, and after issuing the order, he hid in the mountains and forests in a few steps, the entire sneak attack mission had been overcompleted, and all that remained was to withdraw the entire team to a safe area as soon as possible.

When the American soldiers turned it over, they found that there was nothing left. Under the night sky, there was only the angry roar of the American commander. (To be continued......)
