"Good evening, friends and viewers in front of the TV! Today, we have the honor to invite six veterans of both sides who participated in the Battle of Chicago 50 years ago to tell us about the largest tank battle in history. The young host was just about to mobilize the emotions of the audience, but was interrupted by a loud shout:

"Haha, I didn't expect it to be you, old George! After all these years, you haven't died! "No one thought that a thin old man in China would have such a loud voice.

Glancing at the old colonel's uniform on the old man's body, the host choked back the words on his lips.

"I didn't die in your hands back then, and those ghosts and gods didn't dare to accept me all these years!" A tall and tall American man with gray hair also stretched out his arms and greeted Yang Rukui, who was striding over.

"The director turns the camera this way, and let's start our conversation again!" After the veterans on both sides sat down one after another, the host who had stood next to him for a long time reluctantly brought the topic back.

"Back then, there was really nothing to say. Our tanks just kept rushing over, seeing what they saw, and nothing could stop us! Yang Rukui's disapproving words made the host roll his eyes.

"Indeed!" George nodded in approval, "At that time, your Type 46 tanks were really powerful, and our Pershing and Super Pershing could not fight. It's the Overlord tank, and it's not an opponent! ”

After so many years, military experts will have a final conclusion.

"I heard you had a secret weapon back then?" The moderator asked knowingly.

Many details about that battle have long been revealed, and even the secret weapons of the Americans at that time have been analyzed one by one. The host knows it, and George knows it, but in the face of a large audience, he still needs to go along with the meaning.

"In view of the thick armor of the Chinese tanks at that time, we worked with the British to develop tungsten carbide sub-caliber armor-piercing shells. Although the source of tungsten resources was controlled by you in China at that time, the Allies still accumulated a lot of reserves, produced a lot of such sub-caliber armor-piercing shells, and deployed them in large quantities in this campaign.

At that time, I came across Lao Yang's tank. Although at that time it was the first time I saw the Type 46 tank. But I can also have a hunch that ordinary pointed armor-piercing shells or even cap-piercing shells are not very effective, and at the beginning, I commanded our tank platoon to fire 4 sub-caliber armor-piercing shells in a row. ”

"4? I heard that this thing is extremely powerful, it seems to be about a thousand meters, and it can penetrate 200 mm thick uniform armor? The host pretended to be surprised.

The question he asked was not very professional, but George would not be picky in this regard, nodded lightly, and continued to speak calmly: "Almost! Our Super Pershing C2 is a 105mm gun. In my opinion, it was enough to deal with the 2 Huaxia tanks rushing in front of me. But our attack missed 3 in the first round. Only one hit the one on the right, which I could see clearly in the gun scope, right in front of his tank. ”

"If it weren't for that anti-tank trench and let us slow down, you wouldn't have hit. But you're playing too well! Yang Rukui said politely beside him.

"yes, that's right!" George smiled wryly.

At that time, no one in the Americans expected that the Huaxia Type 46 tank would emerge was the T-64 tank, which later used composite armor to defend against various armor-piercing shells. In particular, George's tungsten carbide sub-caliber armor-piercing projectiles hit the front with the thickest armor protection, and finally came to an end.

"There is only one chance, I didn't expect your Type 46 tank to adopt the two-way stabilization technology of artillery so early!" George was more emotional.

After the concept of the main battle tank was first proposed by the Chinese, later generations continued to divide it, but the core division method is still the combat mode.

The first generation of main battle tanks was only equivalent to mobile artillery, except at close range, when shooting at an attacking opponent, it was necessary to stop and shoot. In order to ensure the accuracy rate.

The Americans' Super Pershing, the Overlord Tank and the Huaxia Type 59 as well as the First Class Rhino and Grizzly Bear. They all belong to this first generation.

The Type 46 that Huaxia came out of nowhere in that battle not only wore composite armor that restrained armor-piercing shells, but also adopted two-way artillery stabilization technology. It allows the tank to move at a constant speed while shooting at stationary or moving targets without having to stop.

This is also an important reason why the Huaxia Tank Corps went on a rampage all the way and came by surprise at a speed unexpected by the Americans.

Moving targets are not so easy to hit.

Perhaps when it was necessary to slow down or even stagnate in front of the anti-tank trench, it was easy to be attacked by the Americans, but after crossing the anti-tank trench, the galloping Huaxia tank made it difficult for the Americans to even aim.

However, the barrel of the Huaxia tank was constantly adjusting its direction, knocking on the stationary American goose all the way.

Even the Overlord tank could not be used in front of the T-64 125-mm tank gun.

George's Super Pershing was unfortunately knocked out, he was captured and captured, and the 4 Super Pershings of his tank platoon were also killed by the 2 T-64A tanks on the opposite side.

"Your Type 46 tanks are too strong!" George couldn't help but sigh, knowing that some of the tankmen in the prisoner camp with him were all driving Overlord tanks, and they were also beaten by Type 46 tanks.

"Nope! The Type 46 tank of the Huaxia people was not the strongest of the main tanks of the Huaxia in that battle! A bearded American next to him chimed in, "They also have second-generation grizzly bears and rhinos." I think they're stronger than the Type 46! ”

The Grizzly Bear and Rhino Tank are still the original titles, although the second-level Grizzly Bear and Rhino are also second-generation tanks, but the tank created by the base technology not only integrates the technology of the United States and the Soviet Union, but also embodies the technical essence of countless time and space, which is indeed much stronger than the T-64 tank with many defects. If the Americans' Overlord tank can still hold up in front of the T-64 tank for a while, it will collapse early in the face of the second-class grizzly bear and rhinoceros.

The Americans just hoped that the number of second-level rhinos and grizzly bears was not large, so they would launch a large-scale tank battle, trying to win by numbers, but they did not expect that an equally perverted T-64A tank appeared, not to mention, even the number of second-level grizzly bears and rhinos also multiplied a lot with the upgrading of the base, and directly pressed the Overlord tank to retreat step by step.

"Although I am only a pilot, I always believe that the Apocalypse Tank is the strongest!" The fat old man next to him, who could no longer wear an American flight suit, said solemnly.

As soon as the words of the Apocalypse Tank were spoken, it seemed to carry magic power, and everyone present closed their mouths together.

For the Apocalypse Tank, which only officially appeared in the later stages of the campaign, George, who was captured early, had a trace of regret on his face that he could not see it in person.

And the bearded man who had fought against rhinos and grizzly bears suddenly widened his eyes, revealing a hint of terror in his eyes.

The three Chinese veterans involuntarily straightened their waists, which were already a little tired, and their faces were naturally full of pride.

Even the audience and the host at the scene were fascinated, and the story of the Apocalypse Tank accompanied their growth and became a real legend in the minds of many people.

Everyone at the scene was immersed in their own thoughts for a while, until the host who reacted smiled and asked the fat old man, "Have you ever touched the Apocalypse Tank?" ”

"My Sabre fighter was shot down by the Apocalypse Tank back then!" The fat old man's face, which had been smiling, couldn't help but float for a while,

"You know, the tank troops in China advanced too fast back then, and they were mixed with our troops, and the carpet bombardment tactics that we regarded as one of the killer weapons covering all directions of artillery fire also failed. What's more, at that time, the vanguard cannon of China moved to the front line again, and in front of the vanguard cannon, what kind of artillery dared to attack blatantly? In the end, our artillery was strangled by the Vanguard artillery or your heavy artillery, missiles, and attack aircraft in the sky, and it did not work at all. ”

Although the fat old man is only a pilot, he is very familiar with some details of that year: "Without the effective support of artillery fire on the spot, our tank unit has always been at a disadvantage under the blows of your Type 46 and second-generation rhinoceros and grizzly bears." At that time, in order to change this disadvantage, Washington launched the windmill project. ”

"Oh, that's the piston propeller fighter's ground attack plan?" The host asked in surprise on behalf of the audience.

"Yes. Although those old piston fighters were not good against jet fighters, they were still very threatening against those tanks on the ground at that time. At that time, our jet fighter group was too busy to resist the attack of the Huaxia fighters and could not afford to withdraw, so we could only rely on these old-fashioned piston fighters. As you know, at that time our American piston propeller aircraft were definitely the first in the world! At the last sentence, a touch of pride couldn't help but appear on the fat old man's face, but then a wry smile crossed the corner of his mouth,

"Such an attack plan has been implemented a long time ago, but those piston propeller fighters are too slow, and they are easily shot down by the dense anti-aircraft artillery of China during the attack, and most of our piston fighters were destroyed in this way at that time. Only this time, the Pentagon has formulated the tactic of luring the enemy into depth, intending to take advantage of the loophole that the Chinese tank army is too fast to attack and lack the support of the fixed positions of the anti-aircraft artillery, so as to strike in the air and win a key victory.

We also thought in advance that the fast-advancing Huaxia tank lacked the support of anti-aircraft missiles, so some jet fighters also participated in this air attack, but we never thought that there was such a terrifying weapon as the Apocalypse Tank in this world! The fat old man's little eyes widened suddenly. (To be continued......)
