At this time, the commander of the Indian Fourth Division found out that the Chinese tanks had launched an attack on them, and they were immediately terrified, on the narrow road, the army could not be deployed, and the strength advantage on their side became a burden, ordinary soldiers could not stop the tanks without the protection of bunkers, and because the distance between the two sides was too close, the artillery could not be used, and if they wanted to block the crazy attack of the Chinese tanks, they could only use tanks to return fire.

The tanks of the Fourth Division were attached to the infantry, and they were not concentrated, and now they couldn't care about anything, the British steel monsters were all mobilized, and many of the scattered Indian soldiers were hit by the tanks of their own side and crushed into meat sauce.

Finally, the British tanks gathered together, the Chinese tanks had turned away, leaving only a puff of dust on these British tanks, and a mess all over the ground, Lu Han's blow worked, and he was not greedy, he only had twenty tanks under his command, all of which were the essence of the tank brigade, and there must be no losses, and at this time the ammunition on the tanks had almost been hit, so when the British were ready to counterattack, all retreated safely.

Only a few tank soldiers on the Chinese side were bruised, not counting anything at all, while the Indian Fourth Division killed more than 500 people, and nearly a thousand people fled, and also lost three tanks and a large number of supplies, looking at the stumps and broken legs all over the ground, Commander Jacob was also cold in his heart, the Chinese were far more fierce and cunning than they imagined.

After an encounter, the Indian Fourth Division lost more than one-tenth of its combat effectiveness, and the blow to morale was even more amazing, the originally aggressive Indian army was thinking about how to survive at this time, and the courage was fading, Jacob had to temporarily transfer the Fourth Division to the rear and send the Scottish Division to open the way, a dog is a dog after all, don't look at how ferocious it is, once it hurts, you still have to point at the master.

Jacob secretly scolded these Indian troops in his heart, of course, what made him even more angry was the bureaucrats in Mandalay, his three divisions of troops did not provide air force escort, it was simply a matter of ignoring human life, if there was aerial reconnaissance, would he still have to worry about these Chinese tanks.

Jacob immediately announced that the troops were resting on the spot, and put on a posture of strict defense, without enough air force support, they would definitely not advance again, Lu Han did not expect that his attack would have such a great effect, he was really overjoyed, the Chinese side just had enough time to strengthen the position, the runway was also reinforced, the bombers could take off and land, and reinforcements from the direction of Yunnan also arrived.

The soldiers of the Yunnan Garrison Brigade who came to the aid, this is a reserve force, the entire brigade has only 3,200 soldiers, which is almost half the difference between the main battle force, but this is enough, with the addition of these soldiers, the strength in Lu Han's hands is close to 10,000, even in the face of three divisions of the Anglo-Indian army has enough confidence.

After Jacob waited for a night, the British finally sent a group of planes to help, and after having the planes, the British and Indian troops had the courage to fight, and the three divisions of the army were lined up, the Scottish division mainly attacked the front, and the Indian 4th and 6th divisions were pinned down from the left and right flanks.

Jacob also learned the lesson of yesterday and began to concentrate the tanks for use, and more than 40 tanks formed a powerful arrow, rushing towards the Chinese position, followed by British soldiers and artillery providing cover in the back, which was also a typical tactic on the Western Front in the late World War I.

After yesterday's battle, Luján has discovered the advantages of the Biao tank, which is good in maneuverability and outstanding firepower, although the British tank has to take advantage of some advantages in tonnage, but it cannot withstand the fire of the Biao tank, and there has always been a misunderstanding in the design of the British tank, that is, the British always try their best to fit as many machine guns as possible into a tank.

This concept can certainly increase the firepower of the tank, but it will also increase the difficulty of operation, and mechanical failures are commonplace, so Luján decided to rely on his tank advantage to hit the British tanks first.

China's armored forces have long been ready to attack, and as soon as the British tanks appeared, the tanks in the Chinese positions rushed out with a roar, which was probably the first collision of steel behemoths on the battlefield in the Far East, and soon the advantages and disadvantages of the tanks on both sides were revealed.

The No. 1 car driven by Lu Han was the first to open fire, and suddenly a British tank turned into a pile of scrap metal, and the flames rose into the air, and the soldiers inside did not have time to escape, all of them were turned into fireballs, and these fire men ran a few steps on the battlefield, and then fell down, turning into a pile of black coal.

The tragic scene of burning the living is nothing on the living battlefield, the soldiers on both sides don't seem to have time to take care of them at all, but desperately fire at each other, the British tank is also equipped with a 37 mm main gun, but the power of the artillery is weaker than the Chinese side, and the Chinese tank is more flexible and fast, most of the shells from the British can be easily dodged.

And the British tanks were not so lucky, soon these water tanks became fire cabinets, Jacob was commanding in the rear at this time, seeing that the tanks on his side were destroyed one by one, his heart was also dripping blood, and at the same time there was a very funny feeling in his heart, just more than ten years ago the Chinese relied on flesh and blood to resist the steel of the eight-nation coalition, those ignorant peasants thought that they had the blessing of the gods and could be invulnerable, apparently they were all beaten into a sieve by the coalition forces.

But in less than 20 years, the status of China and Britain seems to have changed, and now it is China's turn to use advanced equipment to start abusing the British, is this retribution?

In addition to the desperate fight on the ground, the battle in the air is as tragic, the war eagles of both China and Britain are fighting to the death, this time the British practical aircraft is the famous camel fighter, this fighter is one of the most famous dogfighting planes in the First World War, has made great achievements, the German ace pilot Richthofen was shot down by a Canadian pilot "camel".

The powerful combat effectiveness of this aircraft is mainly due to its unique flying surname, that is, the extremely sensitive surname of Zongzhong! This kind of special surname is not only loved by pilots, but also makes some pilots stay away, because if they are not careful, they can easily enter a dangerous tailspin (also called spiral) state and cannot change it. It was for the purpose of pursuing the fighting surname that the designers had to sacrifice some stable surnames in order to increase the reaction sensitivity of the aircraft, which became a veritable fiery horse, and it was not easy to tame.

However, this famous aircraft has become a bit outdated in today's rapid development of aviation technology, and China's new fighter Suzaku has surpassed the famous camel in terms of surname.

Qiao Yu has always believed that the naming of China's weapons in later generations followed the habits of the West too much, and lost its own characteristics, so most of China's new weapons are named after the legendary beasts and birds in China, and the tank is named after Biao, this fighter is named Suzaku because of its simple and light structure, fast action, and strong firepower, and it is a new product produced in 1918.

Nearly two years later than the camel, the Chinese Suzaku surname can overtake the camel, the engine power of the Suzaku reached 180 horsepower, and the empty weight is 60 kilograms lighter than the camel, so the change is that the speed of the Suzaku exceeds 220 kilometers, steadily suppressing the camel, and in terms of mobility, the Suzaku also overtakes the camel.

And due to the progress of technology, Suzaku's body structure is more stable and can withstand the recoil of the cannon, so Suzaku is equipped with a 20 mm cannon, as well as a 7.8 mm machine gun, and the firepower also surpasses the camel, but the camel aircraft is not without advantages, that is, most of the British pilots have experienced the baptism of World War I, and the combat experience is more abundant, especially in dog fights, British pilots are often able to gain an advantage.

However, Suzaku can also maintain it by virtue of its excellence, China also sent elite pilots this time, the best of which is Wang Yue, who dropped the first bomb on the warship at the beginning, which is also regarded as a symbol of the official participation of the Chinese Air Force, Wang Yue's flying skills have become more and more superb in recent years, and China's aircraft surname can be improved very quickly.

However, there is one problem that has not been solved, that is, China's flight treaty has not participated in actual combat, which is also the restriction of the Entente on China, the air force battle is still just emerging, and the Entente countries are unwilling to give China a chance to catch up, so they have rejected China's request to send the air force to participate in the war several times, so the Chinese army's battles are often provided by the Allied countries to provide air cover.

This has also become the regret of Wang Yue and others, the pilot did not go through actual combat, did not shoot down a few planes, how can it be called a trump card, just a few days ago the Chinese bombers attacked Myitkyina, but also shot down three British planes, got off to a good start, this is a great stimulus for the pilots of the fighter jets, these Chinese Air Force boys have regarded this battle as a battle of honor, must personally shoot down the enemy plane, for their fuselage painted a few stars.

Wang Yue's war eagle just narrowly avoided a string of machine gun bullets, and suddenly Wang Yue's back was soaked with sweat, but although it was thrilling, his plane had already seized the high place, and the aircraft gun was just facing the side of the British plane, this was a golden opportunity, Wang Yue did not hesitate to press the button, and the thick cannon muzzle shot a series of shells, which just hit the camel.

The ferocious cannon instantly broke the camel into pieces, and the British pilot was also beaten into two sections, and the blood stained the sky, Wang Yue won a good start, and the battle in the air at this time became more and more intense, and from time to time the plane was shot down, as if it was a dumpling.

It is difficult to distinguish in the air, but the armored forces on the ground have already divided the victory and defeat, the fierce Chinese Biao tanks destroyed the British tanks one by one, and the British attack plan was suddenly hit hard, the tank is their arrow, and now without this arrow, how can they break through the Chinese position.

In the end, China's Biao tank achieved an absolute advantage with a record of 8 to 21, this steel collision ended in a fiasco for the British, and the British army withdrew from the Chinese position in a gray manner.

Looking at the retreating British [***] team, the Chinese tanks did not pursue, and after a melee, the Chinese side suffered a lot of losses, and most of the ammunition was consumed, and many tanks also needed to be repaired, waiting for the next more fierce fighting.
