Chapter 137: Artillery and Tanks

As soon as six o'clock in the morning arrived, the artillery brigade began a fierce artillery attack, and the artillery brigade, which had already adjusted the angle of its guns, broke out again with his irresistible artillery fire after a two-hour stop.

At this time, the artillery of the army did not dare to blatantly fire at the 99th Army, the large-caliber artillery had almost been wiped out, and the smaller-caliber ones did not play a role, and often as soon as the artillery was fired on their side, they would immediately attract several shells from the opposite side to retaliate, and the artillery would soon be destroyed.

Therefore, the commanders of the Kwantung Army have now begun to use artillery very carefully, and they will not use artillery unless it is critical. After a night of suffering, the sky finally began to brighten, and for the 99th Army, the dawn of the sky meant an attack. For the Kwantung Army, the increase in the sky means that they can have air support, and as for the support of the navy, if it is not really helpless, they will not ask the grandchildren of the navy.

On the Western Front, the 300 tanks of the armored brigade were already standing behind the 767th Division, and the roar of the engines resounded throughout the 767th Division's position.

You must know that this time the initiative to attack is only to attract the Yue army in Jinxi City, it can be said that the entire attack of the 767th Division and the 768th Division is a feint, and the real attack is on the northern front of the 766th Division. Once the tank lies in the position of the army, the consequences will be unimaginable, ranging from abandoning the tank at least to destroying the vehicle and killing people.

This mission has one purpose, to attack the Kwantung Army on the Western Front fiercely, so that they cannot resist, and at the same time, the 766th Division will also pretend to support the Western Front, wanting to destroy the Kwantung Army on the Western Front in one fell swoop, thus forcing the Kwantung Army in Jinxi City to have to go out of the city. Once the Yue army in Jinxi City leaves the city, the 767th Division will retreat to the original defensive line, and the tank brigade will also be directly transferred to the position on the northern front, penetrating the belly of the Kwantung Army on the northern front, and forming a flanking attack with the 766th Division in the west and south.

Liu Guodong, commander of the tank brigade, stood on the tank under his command, holding a telescope and carefully observing the situation inside the Kwantung Army's position in front. After a long time, Liu Guodong finally put down the telescope in his hand, and at the same time, deep in his heart, he also had a more complete attack plan, although there was a new plan on the eve of the attack, which seemed a little late, but in fact it was not like this.

In the past, Liu Guodong wanted to change the battle plan, and the only way was to delay the start of the war, but now he doesn't have to do it at all. This is currently known as the most advanced main battle tank in the world, not only has great advantages in firepower and defensive armor, but also its biggest advantage is that each tank is equipped with communication equipment, and the command tank only has one more antenna than ordinary battle tanks.

It was used to contact the rear command, and the communication between their tanks basically did not need to show their heads, nor did they need to be like other armored troops, and if they wanted to communicate, they had to drill out half of their bodies, holding the flag in their hands and communicating with the flag language. Now, as long as he gently pressed the call button, the 300 tanks of the whole brigade could clearly hear every word he said, which was unimaginable before.

After glancing at the time, Liu Guodong directly drilled into the inside of the tank, and at the same time picked up the intercom in his hand, and said directly: "Attention of all units, attention of all units, I am Liu Guodong of tank No. 001, and now I order, all tank crews are in place." ”

As soon as Liu Guodong finished speaking, within ten seconds, the commanders of each tank directly got out of the car and beckoned the crew members who were still outside to return to the tank, and the whole process lasted less than a minute, and all the 300 tanks of the tank brigade were in a state of readiness.

"Attention units, I am tank No. 001, the battle will start in three minutes, I order you, after the battle begins, immediately after the battle begins, all units will pounce on the enemy on the opposite side as quickly as possible, tank guns and defensive machine guns or anything don't stop, kill all the enemies you can see, don't worry about the infantry brothers behind, don't worry about the stock of ammunition, after the battle is over, all units immediately go to the nearest No. 1 point or No. 2 and No. 3 points for replenishment." Liu Guodong began to order.

The best way to deal with the Yue army is to quickly impact and break through their defensive line in one fell swoop, as for the artillerymen who are shelling, then don't worry, as soon as the combat vehicle starts, Liu Guodong will directly tune the radio to the channel to contact the artillery brigade, this time he wants to play a big game, so that the Kwantung Army will completely lose any reaction time.

"Attention units, now countdown, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, attack!" With Liu Guodong's shout, three hundred steel beasts rushed frantically towards the position of the opposite Kwantung Army like hungry tigers.

At this time, the Kwantung Army was still in a state of hiding from artillery attacks, and it was unable to take care of the tanks that were rushing on the opposite side. There were even many Kwantung Army soldiers who didn't notice the abnormality on the other side at all, let alone that the three hundred tanks that could easily kill them were rushing towards them frantically.

As the ground trembled violently, and the kind of vibration that was different from the artillery attack spread to each of them, it was only then that the front-line soldiers of the Kwantung Army reacted. Looking at the tanks one by one, densely packed with a large area, many Kwantung Army soldiers seemed to have a sense of despair in their hearts.

The Kwantung Army, basically never suffered defeat, and has never fought any such a bad battle as now, the Russo-Russian War, the victory of the army, and then the easy collapse of the Northeast Army's forces in the Northeast, this battle seems to be a matter of course, they seem to have accepted the glory of this victor.

But they didn't expect that since they came to this Jinxi, the nightmare seemed to be like that sticky candy, tightly linked to them, and never separated in the slightest.

Liu Guodong was lying on the periscope, the high-speed tank, its bumpiness made those members who stayed inside the tank dare not touch every corner of the tank with the most vulnerable place of their bodies, Liu Guodong held the fixed rod next to him tightly with both hands, while keeping his eyes at a distance from the periscope.

"I'm Liu Guodong, and I'm asking the artillery to immediately move back a kilometer." When the tank was about 400 meters away from the front line troops of the Kwantung Army, Liu Guodong finally made the first call to the artillery position. He didn't dare to wait any longer, the large-caliber shells were no better than the little devil's Sanqi anti-tank guns, and if they were hit, they would be hit, it wasn't a big deal, but this thing was enough to choke on it.

Therefore, when the tank cluster was still 400 meters away from the front-line position, Liu Guodong directly called the artillery brigade in the rear to move the artillery fire to the rear one kilometer, and then continued to cover the surname and push backwards.

ps: I saw the news today, the ranger doesn't know what to say, the embassy in Syria was bombed, we are still only strongly condemning, and I also express strong condemnation, but in the book, I have to let me and everyone's wish be fulfilled, and I am angry.
