When Zhang Shixin's No. 4 H-type tank finally crawled out of this crater more than two meters deep after going through "thousands of difficulties".

It's just that there are only some stubborn infantry and some auxiliary vehicles left at the scene to resist Zhang Shixin's encirclement and annihilation.

As for those Type 96 land attacks, they had already returned to Chengde Airport to replenish ammunition after throwing bombs.

Of course, the Type 96 land attack also has a strafing attack method on the ground, but they know very well that once they drop their altitude to 1,500 meters, it is not much different from looking for death.

The 75mm magazine anti-aircraft gun of the Weapon Carrier No. 4 was too much of a threat to them.

Although the hit rate of the anti-aircraft guns is really not very good, they dare not bet on whether they will be the unlucky bastard.

……

The rest of the battle didn't take long to end, and these heavy weapons of the army were not a good threat to the tank formation that Zhang Shixin was responsible for the assault and cleanup.

Not to mention those Type 92 heavy machine guns, crooked handles and other garbage things can penetrate at least 50mm thick frontal armor plates.

Many infantry choose to rely on abandoned tanks or armored trucks as shelter to make some resistance that is not much different from hitting a stone with an egg.

Of course, Zhang Shixin knew that among these people, there were definitely many people who chose a tactic of dying together to make their deaths worthwhile:

These people were strapped to explosives bags and the like, and when an enemy vehicle passed by or approached, they pounced on the obstacle and died.

Of course, Zhang Shixin would not give the other party such a chance.

Enemies hiding behind cover were a bit of a hassle, but when the Grizzly Assault Gun slowly climbed into the area, the infantry's bunkers became quite vulnerable.

Even if it doesn't hit the bunker, even if it hits the ground, there will be a scream on this battlefield at any time.

High-explosive shells themselves are anti-personnel guns, so for unprotected infantry, the splash damage of high-explosive shells is much more terrifying than many firearms.

Although the Grizzly Assault Gun does not have the Hawkeye function in the case of direct fire, at close range, direct fire is much better than the Hawkeye, for no other reason, because the Hawkeye can easily accidentally injure allies in front of it at close range, which is actually related to the landing point circle.

The game is similar, firing with Hawkeye, and sometimes there is no movement in the landing circle, however, in the lower right corner of the screen, a hint is swiped to hit an ally.

And then...... The artillery said that you blocked the ballistics, what does it have to do with me?

Others are scolding and swearing......

In fact, it is impossible to see the trajectory of the Hawkeye open, because the gunner can only see the drop point circle.

Well, since Hawkeye is an improvement from the game, it naturally needs to be related to some of the game's situations.

Direct fire avoids this problem to a large extent, so in close range, the artillery is more likely to use direct fire mode.

……

Under the power of the Grizzly assault gun, the remnants of the Yue army were almost completely annihilated.

However, Zhang Shixin did not have the idea of mending the wounded soldiers of the Yue Army, because Zhang Shixin did not want to kill these people, but he knew very well that a seriously wounded soldier was a heavier burden on a country than a dead officer and soldier.

Zhang Shixin does not leave prisoners in another world, mainly because of this factor. After all, most of the battles he has experienced are not the kind of battles that want to be done to this point, so Zhang Shixin would rather give the other party a ride than have this rather immoral approach.

However, Zhang Shixin did not have such concerns about himself, and after confirming that almost all of the Yue army had lost their combat capability, Zhang Shixin ordered the troops to spend five minutes to prepare and then continue to Xifengkou.

As for those wounded soldiers, Zhang Shixin didn't care if they played the glorious bullet or something else, as long as they weren't too close to Zhang Shixin's troops, Zhang Shixin didn't care whether they lived or died.

………………………………………… Dividing line ......................................................

"Dazuo, we've lost contact with the Chariot Wing!" A signal soldier walked up to Naoto Hattori and told him about it.

Naoto Hattori frowned, and a feeling of unease came to his mind: "How long has it been?" ”

"Half an hour!"

Naoto Hattori glanced at the signal soldier, then quickly stood up and compared the map behind I**.

More than ten seconds later, Naoto Hattori reluctantly said to the signal corps: "Ask the headquarters for tactical guidance!" Let's just say that we have encountered a stronger enemy than ever before! ”

"Dazuo, are you doing this too quickly?" The chief of staff shook his head, because he knew that Naoto Hattori's concerns were quite correct, but for some reason, he advised Naoto Hattori anyway.

"I don't know that if I want to ask the headquarters for tactical guidance now, I will undoubtedly give up my future, but compared to this situation, if we really fail in this place, I am afraid that we will only have one way to face the direction of Tokyo."

"Hay!" The chief of staff thought of the outcome he was about to face, and could only prioritize his own life.

……

Chengde, located in the Rehe region, was a medium-sized town in the ** period, and this time it became the headquarters of the army's operations.

In fact, the news that Zhang Shixin's armored troops appeared in the battle area made the commander of the Yue Army, Muto Nobuyoshi, quite angry, because he knew very well that Zhang Shixin's appearance completely violated his perception of the strength of the Chinese army.

Not to mention that the other side seems to have quite advanced tanks, armored vehicles, and even large-caliber self-propelled artillery, just those self-propelled anti-aircraft guns that can knock down the Type 96 land attack medium bombers with one shot can show the strength of this unit.

The problem now is that there is no hope for the Army Air Force, and officers who are proficient in bombing tactics know very well that even if hundreds of bombers carry out high-altitude bombing, the effect is not very good.

But if they were to bomb at an altitude of six or seven hundred meters, then it would not be much different from looking for death. The anti-aircraft fire of the opposing side was too intense.

Under this premise, Muto Nobuyoshi ordered the personnel of the Army Air Corps to provide effective support to the ground forces as much as possible, but he himself knew very well that if this order could be effectively carried out, then there would be ghosts.

The value of the empire's planes is quite high, and Muto Nobuyoshi doesn't want to lose too many planes in this battle, so he also has a certain selfish intention when he gives this order.

Since the Air Force can't count on it, then expect the Army to be able to defeat or even encircle and annihilate the other side.

Muto Nobuyoshi ordered two brigades of the 6th Division of the Kwantung Army to be thrown into battle as reserves.

It's just that before he could give an order to the troops who were near the Xifeng Pass to cooperate in the battle, Naoto Hattori's order to request tactical support made Muto Nobuyoshi have to roar: "This waste." ”

But he himself knew very well that his subordinates alone would not be able to eliminate Zhang Shixin's armored forces without paying a heavy price.

And there is also a rather serious problem that plagues the officers of the Ichibu Army, headed by Muto Nobuyoshi.

That is, where did Zhang Shixin's troops come from?

After nearly half a minute of cold scenes, Muto Nobuyoshi looked at a group of subordinates who were looking at each other, and could only send a telegram to the Kwantung Army secret service to inquire about the relevant situation.

……

In fact, the secret service organs of the Kwantung Army should be the largest branch of the secret service organization in the country, and many of them are like "Mei" and "Ju...... and so on, all of which have a lot of roots with it.

Under this premise, Muto Nobuyoshi got a reply after ten minutes.

However, Muto Nobuyoshi expressed his consternation at the fact that the other party mentioned in this reply appeared under the city of Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province a few years ago to assist the defenders in defensive operations.

If this is someone who appeared a few years ago, it is simply unreasonable.

Not to mention how the other party was able to appear here with so many people and this number of convoys, just because there has been no relevant news to attract the attention of the military department's top brass, this is an unrealistic situation.

Although Muto Nobuyoshi did not dare to say that he was a high-ranking member of the military department, he also had certain connections in the military department.

At the same time, he also knew very well that among the top political axes at that time, there were one or two quite powerful people who had a good relationship with them in private.

None of these people reacted in this way, and it was clear that the other party did not know about such a thing.

As for the other forces, Muto Nobuyoshi didn't believe that such an elite enemy army would come from those forces.

It can be said that Muto Nobuyoshi is becoming more and more confused this time, because things are becoming more and more confusing.

But before Muto Nobuyoshi could figure out an idea, he received a message from the air team sent out:

The chariot wing was almost completely wiped out, and most of the remaining soldiers were seriously wounded.

This news made Muto Nobuyoshi gasp, because he didn't expect that a chariot wing would be finished in such a short period of time?

How strong is the other party's strength?

Muto Nobuyoshi, who came to his senses, had to order the two brigades to set off immediately, and telegraphed that Naoto Hattori must defend until reinforcements arrived, flank the opposing troops in front and rear, and strive to completely annihilate the other side.

……

Muto Nobuyoshi's order can be said to be quite correct, but he overestimated the combat effectiveness of the army in the area around Kiminekou.

It is true that Naoto Hattori has more than 10,000 men and several hundred tanks and combat vehicles, but the Northwest Army troops at Xifengkou have also carried out two brigades of support, and Zhang Shixin's troops have already approached the rear of their troops.

It can be said that this is a battle against the clock.

If Zhang Shixin's troops had given priority to defeating Naoto Hattori's troops with the cooperation of friendly forces, then Muto Nobuyoshi's tactics would have been a complete defeat at Xifengkou.

But on the other hand, if Naoto Hattori resists the offensive and waits for the support of reinforcements, then Zhang Shixin's fate is quite bad, and even the defense line with Xifengkou is in danger.

Arguably, time became the most important key to change all this.

…………………………………………………… Dividing line ..........................................

Of course, Zhang Shixin didn't know such a situation, and even if he knew, all Zhang Shixin could do was to attack the other party with his life.

After consultations between Naoto Hattori and another brigade commander surnamed Suzuki, it was decided that the Suzuki Brigade and a tank wing would resist the offensive of Zhang Shixin's troops, while Naoto Hattori would lead another tank wing to stand by and support the Suzuki Brigade at the same time.

At this time, the guards of the Northwest Army stationed at Xifengkou were Zhao Dengyu and Wang Changhai, and the former led reinforcements to support.

In fact, history has changed here, because the army has a chariot unit, which led to heavy casualties in Wang Changhai's army, and Song Zheyuan had to let Zhao Dengyu lead the troops to support.

At the same time, the historical night raid operations were advanced, but they also failed. Because the night attack of the broadsword army is a useless tactic for the chariot wing of the army.

Although it is said that the army encountered a surprise attack and suffered quite heavy casualties, a countercharge of the two tank wings wiped out almost all the raiding troops.

This cannot be blamed on Wang Changhai's tactical mistakes, but the failure caused by the large gap in equipment.

Therefore, after learning the news that the raiding troops were almost wiped out, Wang Changhai hated it so much, but he could only ask the military headquarters in Beiping for support.

Zhang Shixin didn't know that Zhao Dengyu, a brave general, had reached Xifengkou, and even if he knew, he wouldn't have time to pay attention to such a thing for the time being.

Because the resistance of the Suzuki Brigade and the Chariot Wing of the Japanese Army was very strong.

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

Zhang Shixin glanced at the tactical map, and the two sides were engaged in a tug-of-war in a canyon area. But the number of his troops was no less than his.

Zhang Shixin was surprised that the opponent's chariot troops actually played with him.

"Are these fools stupid or are they dying not fast enough?" Zhang Shi thought to himself as he listened to the constant clanging sound of shells coming from the armored area in front of the tank.

Zhang Shixin's infantry unit is now using tank fighting vehicles as cover to cover the advance of the convoy.

As for the Type 97 formation on the opposite side, as long as it is lit up by the III/IV experimental tanks in front, it will only end up being set on fire.

Casualties on both sides continued to appear on the tactical map, and Zhang Shixin was quite helpless about this. Because although the weapons of the Yue Army are not very good, the marksmanship of the Yue Army is quite accurate.

From time to time, mercenary infantry were hit.

Although the lethality rate of the 38 Dagai is not high, many soldiers still lose a certain amount of combat effectiveness and have to be treated.

The attrition of the tank unit is almost negligible, unless it is because the RP is too poor and it is hit in the weak position, it can be said that the firepower of the army is almost negligible for Zhang Shixin's subordinates, surnamed the tank and combat vehicle units that can be far ahead.

Zhang Shixin has a more advanced tank, but the system is locked and not used.

According to Hinia, letting you use the No. 4 tank is considered a discount for you, what else do you want?

Well, I have to say that in the case of rather cheating infantry weapons, being able to use the No. 4 tank formation can be regarded as a system network.

If you use a tank from the same period as the Type 97...... Zhang Shixin really doesn't know that he is sure to complete this task, right?

It's just that Zhang Shixin also misses the troops he is about to complete the upgrade, and everyone has an AK-74 equipped with tactical rails, and the anti-tank rocket launcher is no longer an iron fist with poor range and power, but a more advanced RPG-7, and the tank unit is dominated by the E main battle tank and the IS-8 heavy tank......

Well, with such a configuration, there is no pressure at all to push the Xifengkou......

Of course, as mentioned above, the system will not let Zhang Shixin do this, so Zhang Shixin just thinks about it.

Compared with this situation, the advance speed of Zhang Shixin's troops is not too slow.

Many of the opponent's firepower points were reimbursed by several 150mm grenade fires, even the firepower of a Type 92 machine gun, they were treated like this.

Of course, the consumption of such shells is relatively high, but Zhang Shixin believes that the money is not unjustly spent.

Although he didn't have any ideas such as Tokyo Da**, Zhang Shixin still hated the soldiers of this period.

Therefore, Zhang Shixin did not skimp on artillery shells at all, as long as he didn't lose too much money, even if the other party only had three or four infantry together, many times it was a large-caliber artillery shell to greet the other party.

As a result, the Suzuki Brigade and the tank wing suffered heavy casualties in a short period of time.

But at this time, the sound of the engine faintly came from the sky, and Zhang Shixin shook his head helplessly: "The game is here again......

Zhang Shixin's advance speed is relatively slow, more because the team is scattered and relatively open, Zhang Shixin has long known that these military air teams are more like flies.

However, because Zhang Shixin was holding a powerful electric mosquito swatter in his hand, these "flies" did not dare to get too close to Zhang Shixin.

Of course, this is just an analogy, in fact, because of the existence of the No. 4 weapon carrier, the opponent bombed an area indiscriminately, and then returned.

Zhang Shixin helplessly looked at the blank areas that had been cleared several on the tactical map, and it was obvious that these troops were finished.

Although the bombing accuracy of the military air force was not very good, Zhang Shixin's troops still suffered some casualties after more than 100 bombs.

Among them were nearly 10 tanks and armored vehicles.

The 100-kilogram aerial bomb is a little more powerful than the 203mm shell, but in general it is not more powerful than the 240mm shell.

After all, although the charge of aerial bombs is much more than that of artillery shells, aerial bombs are also divided into several weight classes.

However, if a 100-kilogram aerial bomb is fired at close range, the Tiger tank may be directly damaged or even scrapped.

So not to mention these little guys......

It's just that Zhang Shixin is not without comfort at all, because in the defense area of the army, several blank areas with a length of tens of meters or even hundreds of meters have also been blown out.

This is the disadvantage of high-altitude bombing, because many factors interfere with the accuracy of bomb delivery, so this time Zhang Shixin is not a complete loss.

However, compared to this matter, Zhang Shixin was more concerned about why he hadn't seen any cooperation from the defenders of Xifengkou until now.

Zhang Shixin was speechless, that is, he didn't sell his teammates like this...... (To be continued.) )
