Zhang Shixin naturally knew very well that the other party had launched a new round of offensive, and his reconnaissance system, which almost covered an area and left no dead ends, was not for decoration.

However, it was not without accident, as an AMX-13 was behind a bush of grass, quietly watching a large group of tanks and armored vehicles passing in front of it, and the commander was considering whether to go to radio silence and turn off the engine.

He did this out of helplessness, because the tank in front of him was getting closer and closer, only a hundred meters away......

"Flameout!" The commander no longer hesitated, and quickly ordered the engine to be turned off, hoping to reduce the chance of being exposed.

But, perhaps, it was the exhaust that betrayed their tank positions, and perhaps for something. After the AMX-13 was ordered to shut down, the commander saw several enemy tanks in front of him before he heard the engine sound and stopped completely, slowing down and slowly turning the turret into the grass where he was.

"......" the commander smiled helplessly, because he was now in a state where he was almost unable to fight back.

Because the engine was turned off, the electrically driven turret could not turn, so he said to the gunner: "Pull as many people as you can to bury them." ”

The AMX-13's 90mm magazine gun rang out, and the gunner was trying to force his fire as hard as he could, as he found that this angle of fire was only able to aim at an enemy tank for a less effective attack.

A few seconds later, the barrels of several enemy tanks also let out an angry howl, and several shells almost all hit the AMX-13 tank at such a distance.

The commander of this AMX-13, after seeing the fire from the muzzle of the opponent's gun, raised his hand to his team members and gave a military salute......

However, after the AMX-13 was destroyed by several shells, the tank he was shooting at also slowly stopped, and two small bullet holes appeared in the middle of the lower armor plate of this tank.

Obviously, there is a good chance that the other party's suspension system will be broken.

More than ten seconds later, the top cover of several positions of the tank was opened, and several crew members quickly abandoned the car to escape, and the top cover that was opened also emitted a trace of black smoke, and as time passed, more and more black smoke drifted out, and at the same time, there was obviously a red and blue fire.

After a while, the abandoned tank was blown off by the flames, and the turret was blown off......

……

"General, it seems that the forward units of our army have destroyed the reconnaissance tanks left behind by the enemy. Are we sending troops to sort out the more suspicious areas? "An adjutant relayed information from the front to the armored commander of the Osville Empire, and made his own proposal.

The latter thought for a moment, and finally shook his head: "There is no need to do this for the time being, because we must hurry up and break through the enemy's defensive line. Just order the troops at the front to pay attention. ”

"Yes, General."

The armored commander looked at his subordinates who turned around and left the camp, and shook his head in annoyance: "Of course I know how dangerous it will be for our operations if the other side still has a reconnaissance force present. But how long does it take to clean up such a large area? For the sake of my own future, defeating the enemy army is the most important thing. ”

Although the armored commander was still selfish, he was well aware of one thing, and that was that it would take a long time to clear such a large area.

If he knew that Zhang Shixin's troops in ambush in this area were not a few small fish and shrimp, but a large number of reconnaissance tanks, he didn't know how he would feel.

Zhang Shixin naturally also received a signal that his AMX-13 had been destroyed, and he also wanted to order the troops to attack first if they felt that they were exposed.

However, after a few minutes, there was no hint that other light tanks were destroyed, and Zhang Shixin was a little strange: "Meng? ”

Zhang Shixin made such an unreliable judgment, mainly because he didn't quite understand why the other party didn't clean up the light tanks in other areas, but no matter what, such a thing is not a bad thing for Zhang Shixin.

Although the rest of the light tanks were in danger, the nearest WZ-131 also encountered two tanks of the opposing side that had deviated from the road, and what happened only more than thirty meters away from him.

Fortunately, the commander of this WZ-131 had already ordered the driver to turn off the tank, and he quickly put away the gun mirror, coupled with the terrain difference between the two, this WZ-131 was very lucky and escaped the fate of being set on fire by the enemy.

However, this WZ-131 also temporarily lost its combat capability, because unlike tanks in another world, Zhang Shixin's tank unit is a fuel engine, and when the engine is started, there will be exhaust fumes that expose the target. At the same time, the maximum exhaust gas is not when the engine is running at its highest power, but when the engine is started.

Therefore, at a distance of less than two hundred meters, in the face of a huge number of armored clusters, restarting the engine is undoubtedly an act of death.

……

However, the opposing troops soon arrived in an area that could be called a tank graveyard.

Hundreds of tanks, both paralyzed and badly damaged, were scattered throughout the area.

Some of the tanks also emitted a little black smoke......

However, when the tanks and tanks rushed through the area, they were surprised to find that they were not attacked.

The situation at the front was quickly fed back to the commander of the Osville Imperial Panzer Forces, who looked at the telegram in his hand in confusion, not quite understanding what was going on.

Because according to common sense, the other side seems to have no reason to retreat.

He guessed that the top officer of the other side naturally knew the result of abandoning this area and retreating the whole army.

However, based on the information he had received about the destruction of the enemy's light tank, after thinking about it comprehensively, he knew that the enemy should have moved to another area.

As for where that place is?

He turned to look at the map hanging on the wall, and saw that there were no good places in the vicinity that could form a more effective blocking area.

Although a small hilly area is also indicated on the map, there are several small forks in the first two kilometres of this place that lead to other places.

According to his ideas, setting up a defensive line in this small hilly area is not too good an option.

He brought the front-line troops to the attention of some unexpected situations, and at the same time gave the front-line commanders the right to directly decide on the best battle plan without notifying him.

He did this mainly because he didn't want to encounter some unexpected situations and delay the opportunity.

However, what he could think of, Zhang Shixin and Hippal naturally thought of it.

Zhang Shixin naturally knew the meaning of those forks.

It's just that Zhang Shixin naturally has some arrangements.

Several forks were in the firing area of Zhang Shixin's artillery unit, and he specially arranged for all large-caliber self-propelled guns to carry out fixed-point strikes on several forks.

Dozens of shells come down, and these forks can also allow heavy vehicles such as tanks to pass easily, so that's the hell.

Moreover, in the case of a targeted strike by large-caliber artillery, as long as the enemy's tanks and fighting vehicles are covered, the enemy's armored units will have to destroy at least a few vehicles.

Although several forks are also about twenty meters wide, it is just that as long as one or two tanks and combat vehicles are paralyzed, then these forks are not of much use.

Although it is possible that this thinned the combat effectiveness of large-caliber artillery in the early stage of the engagement, it feels a bit overkill.

However, near Zhang Shixin's self-propelled artillery unit, there were also several rows of self-propelled artillery clusters of Gultokati [***].

Although the accuracy of those self-propelled guns is simply not comparable to his own self-propelled artillery units.

But the artillery itself is a combat method of relying on numbers, as well as covering shelling.

Even if the accuracy is really miserable, but this number of covered artillery bombardment, after a round, if not a single tank of the enemy tank in the attack area is damaged, such a rebellious thing, only some brain-dead movies have some cases.

At the same time, Zhang Shixin's self-propelled rocket launcher is not vegetarian.

It's just that, compared with this situation, Zhang Shixin is more worried about one thing, if the other party forcibly breaks through, how should he deal with it.

His armored forces are now more of an auxiliary attack, after all, there are too few of them.

Let the self-propelled guns carry out fire support......

This suggestion is not advisable, Zhang Shixin can think of it with his knees, in this kind of terrain, with their backs to the self-propelled artillery troops, if they really let the self-propelled artillery support, the enemy army does not know how many "lucky ones" they can get.

The shooting accuracy of a little more than one kilometer means that the enemy is Brother Mouse, and I don't know how many areas are extra in the landing circle.

However, he soon found himself worried in vain.

If this happens, the defense line should not be able to hold it, and the question of how long they can hold it is not a question of whether the artillery will blow up their own people......

……………………………………………… Dividing Line................................................

Accompanied by a series of light reports, Zhang Shixin calculated the distance of the enemy army from here.

Ten minutes is undoubtedly an incomparably long time for Zhang Shixin.

But......

It's time to come or it's coming......

When the armored vehicles of the Osville Empire entered Zhang Shixin's tactical map, Zhang Shixin knew that he still had to face what he had to face.

"Shelling !!" Zhang Shixin gave the order to shoot.

A few seconds later, Zhang Shixin's Black Panther self-propelled artillery first let out a roar, and then the Tiger P self-propelled rocket artillery formation fired rockets that flew into the distance with tail flames.

This was followed by 240 155mm self-propelled guns with fixed shelling coordinates......

Hundreds of artillery shells and rockets, after more than ten seconds of flight, rained down into the firing area.

The ground was shaken by the hammer of war, and clouds of fire and smoke swept through the area.

While observing the area, the crew of a WZ-131 even felt the ground tremble......

The smoke had not yet dissipated, and the enemy tanks and combat vehicles that had not been hit or had not lost the ability to move quickly broke through the area of black smoke like a curtain.

The commander of this WZ-131 saw this scene from the artillery team mirror and quickly said to the communicator: "The artillery fire extends backwards!" Artillery fire extends backwards! ”

The communicator quickly transmitted this sentence to the self-propelled artillery unit through the radio station.

Actually, this phrase is a notification for those self-propelled guns of the Gultoka Empire to adjust their firing range.

Because of the existence of Eagle Eye, Zhang Shixin's self-propelled artillery unit was able to know the enemy's movements in real time without exceeding the effective range of Eagle Eye.

Therefore, compared with the combat efficiency of the Panther self-propelled guns, which were loaded with shells, quickly adjusted the landing point circle, and quickly fired again after a few seconds, the 240 self-propelled guns were still slowly relaying the information, and then adjusting the firing elements, and after a while they could shell again.

With such efficiency, it is no wonder that Hippal was not the main factor in expecting too much from self-propelled guns.

Sometimes, after firing two shots at these 155mm self-propelled guns, the Panther self-propelled guns have already fired three shots.

……

The shaking of the earth was also felt by the troops who were ambushing in the hilly area, and at the same time, the black smoke screen area formed by the smoke mixed with dust became more and more obvious after the firelight rose one after another.

They had long been ready for battle, whether it was Zhang Shixin's summoning troops or the Gultoka Empire's Praetorian Second Panzer Corps......

Hippal naturally saw this scene, he felt the vibration that was different from the tank brought to him, and at the same time, he also understood the reason why Zhang Shixin, a possible future boss, valued the self-propelled artillery unit.

Although the number of self-propelled guns of the two armies combined is about 300, such combat efficiency, if someone else is in command, I am afraid that it will be difficult to achieve twice the number of self-propelled guns.

Although he also knew that a considerable part of the credit for this was due to the intelligence feedback of the light tank, but to allow those self-propelled guns to exert such efficiency, he knew that Zhang Shixin's record was indeed worthy of his title as a famous general.

He suddenly thought that if he didn't die in this battle, perhaps, it would be a very good thing to follow Zhang Shixin.

……

The situation on the battlefield was naturally seen very clearly by the two blonde men.

While watching the smoke appear from far to near, they also felt a trace of admiration for Zhang Shixin's artillery command ability.

"I didn't expect this duke's artillery command art to be so powerful."

"Otherwise, how could he ask General Hippal to put all the self-propelled guns under his command? Without self-confidence in this regard, he would not have uttered such a request. ”

"I've heard that this duke has some unknown abilities, and maybe, that's one thing."

"Who knows, maybe it's true, maybe it's fake, but ...... What we see before our eyes is indeed real. ”

"That's right, hehe, if it weren't for the two of us having family bonds, maybe we would be able to comprehend this duke's ability."

"Now we're just passing by. It's just that the pressure they face is still not small. When will the rest of the troops arrive? ”

"I don't know, but it is said that it was the troops who came by sea. Maybe I'll come directly from the west or northwest. After all, there are military ports in both areas. ”

"Your Majesty's plan this time is very big, but it's okay, the affairs of the navy are not something that you and me can interfere in, as long as the old marshal is not so old that he is confused, in the case of almost all the naval combat forces, it is difficult for us to lose."

"yes, though, while there's no way to see one of the biggest naval battles ever, ...... Being able to see the birth of a famous general is not in vain. ”

"The duke is already a famous general, it's just that some people are unwilling to accept such a situation."

"Are you one of those people?"

"Strictly speaking, it doesn't count, but ...... Perhaps in that city southeast of the kingdom of Capani at that time, I might have missed out on the duke. ”

"Let's talk about it in detail."

"You're stupid, maybe I'm thinking about such a thing."

"......, only if you believe in you can you have a ghost!"

……

In the waters to the north and west of the Gultoka Empire, a large group of warships was breaking the waves in a northeasterly direction.

On the bridge of a 35,000-ton battleship, an old marshal sneezed, and a young admiral next to him asked with concern: "Master...... Commander, are you alright? ”

"It's okay, I guess some bastard boys said bad things about me, where did we talk about just now?" The old marshal shook his head, and then continued: "I remember, Your Majesty's arrangement is not a distraction from our forces. However, His Majesty actually sent out the Praetorian Guard, and if our navy could not win in one battle, I am afraid that those landlubbers of the army would laugh to death. So ......"

"We must fulfill our mission, and while living up to the trust of His Majesty, we are also defending the honor of our Navy! Go back and get ready, maybe we'll soon be engaged with the enemy's fleet!" ”

"Yes! Marshal! ”

"Commander, I wonder if the Praetorian Guards can stop the enemy's advance?" The young admiral asked the old man after most of the officers had left the bridge.

The old man smiled slightly: "You yourself have the answer, although that person is indeed very jealous, but under the fame, the youngest duke in the empire, the first emperor will not easily grant it to the other party because of Princess Hailey." The wisdom of the first emperor is difficult for many people to match. ”

"So, what will that person get for this battle?" The young man asked curiously.

"Who knows? Anyway, he has now become a man who is enough to guide history. The old marshal smiled slightly, then sat down in the captain's seat, closed his eyes and recuperated.

The young man looked at the sea and sky in front of him, and clenched his fists: "I also want to get such respect, although in terms of land warfare, I can't compare with you, but I always have a say, I will walk side by side with you, even ......"

……

Zhang Shixin naturally didn't know that a big battle was about to begin.

That was the largest war plan of the Gultoka Empire in the past hundred years......
