Chapter 599: Four to One or One to Four

"Boom, boom, boom" several loud noises in a row, and several shells hit the Type 39 tank that was about to shoot, and the soldiers in this tank only felt a violent vibration of the tank, and their ears were also buzzing.

However, fortunately, the little devil's successive shots did not bring great damage to this Type 39 tank, and even if it was hit by the side armor, the 45 mm caliber tank main gun of the little devil was still slightly less powerful.

The Type 39 tank is well-balanced in terms of armor, firepower, and power. The body armor was 45 mm thick, which was comparable to the German Type 3 and 4 tanks, but the frontal armor had a 32-degree bevel and the sides had a 49-degree angle.

The turret was a cast hexagonal type, the frontal armor was 60 mm thick, the sides were also 45 mm, and the bevel of the body extended to the turret, so that the Type 39 tank looked almost a right-angled triangle from the front.

Bevel armor has two advantages: first, it is easy to bounce off after a shell hits (i.e., 'ricochet'), and its power is greatly reduced; Secondly, according to the triangular principle, after a horizontally fired shell hits the inclined armor, the thickness of the steel plate that needs to pass through it is equivalent to the hypotenuse of the triangle, so the frontal armor of the Type 39 tank tank with a thickness of 45 mm and a 32-degree bevel angle is equivalent to 90 mm, and the side armor with a 49-degree bevel is also equivalent to 54 mm.

Such frontal armor, even with the German tanks in service, did not allow any tank to penetrate at a distance of 500 meters. The little devil's tank is even worse, even if the little devil's tank is very close to this Type 39 tank, about a hundred meters.

Several cannon shots. This Type 39 tank was hit by several bullets, and at such a close distance, no matter how bad the level of the little devil gunner is, he can hit the target.

The soldiers in the tank, after a short period of discomfort, found that their tank was fine. Neither frontal nor side armor was penetrated.

If you stand outside the tank and watch, you will also find out. The tank still had some damage, at least, a few pits on the tank body were still quite conspicuous.

Those few tanks of the little devils. Several little devil gunners saw that the Chinese tank had successfully hit, and, in just a few seconds, the tank was hit several times, and now, the tank was completely enveloped in gunsmoke.

Although it is not clear to see the specific situation of this tank for the time being, these little devils are confident that this Chinese tank will definitely be reimbursed, the little devils think. There is no tank that can continue to fight even after being hit by several bullets.

"Yo Si! That's great! ”

Many little devils, with a burst of joy in their hearts, finally destroyed a Chinese tank.

It's not easy to be a little devil. The two sides fought for nearly 20 minutes, and dozens of their own tanks had been destroyed, but not a single tank of the 36th Army had been destroyed.

But now it's okay, the little devils think, finally wrecked a tank. If the first one is destroyed, the second one will be destroyed immediately, and as long as several of his tanks concentrate their artillery fire on one tank of the 36th Army, the second tank will be destroyed immediately.

Several little devils who had just fired the cannon had a smile on their faces.

However, after only a few moments, the smoke of the hit Type 39 tank cleared around it, and the turret of the tank moved, and the thick barrel was aimed at one of the imp tanks.

Seeing this incredible scene, the smiles on the faces of the little devils instantly froze, and the smile was more ugly than crying, and the little devils thought frantically in their hearts, this is impossible, this is impossible......

Didn't answer the little devil, why is this impossible, what answered the little devil was a cannon shot.

"Fire!"

With a loud "boom", the barrel of this Type 39 tank flashed, and an armor-piercing shell accurately hit a little devil tank not far away.

At such a close distance, this armor-piercing projectile is particularly powerful, and this little devil tank that was hit was almost pierced, and it looked miserable.

"Good! Not bad! Go on! ”

Immediately, the loader of the Type 39 tank loaded another shell, and this gunner, skillfully maneuvering, quickly aimed at another imp tank.

The little devils in the rest of the tanks, seeing that this Type 39 tank was not only not destroyed, but also able to continue fighting, and just now, they easily destroyed one of their own tanks, and suddenly, the rest of the little devil tanks reversed one after another, ready to flee.

However, it is too late to reverse and run away now!

The little devil tank that was being targeted was just about to reverse, but soon, the little devil in this tank saw that the thick barrel of the Type 39 tank was aimed at him.

Seeing this scene, these little devils were scared into a cold sweat, and saw the gun barrel of this tank flashing, and a black shell hit him, infinitely magnified in his frightened eyes, and with a loud "boom", these little devils couldn't hear anything.

"Good! Well done, next one! ”

Destroying the second Imp Tank, the fighters immediately aimed at the next Imp Tank, which had just finished reversing and was about to flee into the distance with the tank's butt pointed at the fighters.

The fighters did not hesitate to shoot at this little devil tank, which was suddenly exploded with chrysanthemums and turned into a pile of scrap metal, emitting smoke on the ground.

Destroy three imp tanks and one imp tank left.

The fighters turned their guns and were about to aim at the little devil tank to fire, but before the fighters could fire, the little devil who was fleeing in the distance was hit by another Type 39 tank.

Farther away, two or three hundred meters away, a Type 39 tank was driving at high speed, and the thick muzzle was facing this little devil tank, and the muzzle of this tank was still emitting green smoke.

Several small devil tanks in the vicinity were all destroyed, and the fighters of this Type 39 tank aimed farther away.

I saw that on the huge battlefield, there were Type 39 tanks everywhere, and many little devil tanks had been destroyed and turned into piles of scrap metal, with thick smoke on the ground.

The form of the battlefield has undergone a great transformation, dozens of little devil tanks have been destroyed, and the number of little devil tanks has been at an absolute disadvantage.

Distance.

The brigade commander of the 2nd Tank Brigade of Little Devils, surrounded by a group of little devils, has already got off the armored car, far away on the edge of the battlefield, and has been paying attention to the situation on the battlefield.

At the beginning of the battle, Yuichi Matsumoto, the commander of the Little Devil Brigade, was still extremely confident, but the development of the battle situation greatly surprised the commander of the Little Devil Brigade.

The tank regiment of the independent division slapped the commander of the little devil brigade in a loud slap, and after more than 20 minutes of fighting, the situation was completely one-sided, and dozens of little devil tanks were destroyed, and at this time, the loss of the little devil tanks had exceeded one-third.

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander! Quickly give the order to retreat! ”

The chief of staff of the little devil next to him looked very anxious, his 2nd Brigade of Tanks was equipped with the latest tanks, and if he suffered heavy losses here, neither his own brigade commander nor himself could bear it.

In addition, if a large number of its own new tanks were destroyed by the 36th Army, it would be a great blow to the morale of the entire Kwantung Army and the entire Japanese army.

The commander of the Little Devil Brigade also thought of retreating at this time, but the form of the entire battlefield has been completely intertwined, and even if he wants to retreat, he is afraid that it will be very difficult.

The little devil's tank, without an on-board radio communication system, cannot notify every little devil tank of the retreat in time, the only way is to flag the retreat, through the flag to command the retreat.

However, the battlefield in front of you is at least several square kilometers, and a total of hundreds of combat vehicles on both sides are fighting there, and even if the flag is played, I am afraid that the tanks you can see are very limited.

Thinking of this, the commander of the little devil brigade shook his head and said miserably: "It's too late to retreat." ”

Seeing his brigade commander say this, the chief of staff of the little devil looked at the two sides that were completely intertwined, and also felt deep despair.

You can't escape, you can't fight.

The little devils really don't know what to do.

"Brigade commander, look, a large number of tanks of the 36th Army have come up again, and a large number of their tanks have joined the battle group again."

A little devil Shaozuo pointed to the distance and shouted in horror.

The commander of the Little Devil Brigade, the Chief of Staff of the Little Devil and other high-ranking officials of the Second Brigade of the Little Devil Combat Vehicle all held binoculars and looked in the direction pointed by the little devil Shaozuo.

I saw that at least dozens of tanks and dozens of armored vehicles of the 36th Group also drove over at high speed and joined the battlefield.

Just now, the little devil saw that it was the soldiers of the mixed battalion of the tank regiment of the independent division, and the tank regiment had three battalions, two tank battalions, and one mixed battalion.

The two tank regiments that began to fight with the little devils, a total of 92 Type 39 tanks, because, it was found that the little devils were all new tanks, and for the sake of safety, the mixed battalion did not participate in the battle for the time being, but only watched the battle on the periphery.

The mixed battalion is equipped with a large number of Type 39 armored personnel carriers, and the armor of the personnel carriers is not as thick as that of the Type 39 tanks.

As the battle progressed, the tanks of the little devils were destroyed one by one, and now, at least a third of the tanks of the little devils have been destroyed, and the tanks of the little devils are the same, compared to the previous tanks, the performance and firepower have been improved to a limited extent.

As a result, the commander of the tank regiment also joined the battle, joined the battlefield, and assisted the two tank battalions in combat, and the mixed battalion had more than 20 Type 39 tanks and more than 20 Type 39 armored personnel carriers, which was also a considerable force.
