Chapter 180: Going to Qinghai for Military Training (4)
The cannon that hit the artillery position of the Ma Jiajun just now was fired by Du Jingtao, and the skills he practiced on the Siberian battlefield were indeed not to cover the ground, but also because he was lucky, under the conditioned reflex, he took off an infantry cannon with one shot.
But when he came back to his senses, he found that most of the tanks in the company were spinning around at a loss.
"All units take out the enemy's artillery first, and the armored transporters are behind, change to high-explosive shells, and quickly open fire!" Du Jingtao saw the panic of some tanks in the company, and shouted loudly in his heart with anxiety and anger.
Under Du Jingtao's order, the tankers of the forward company gradually calmed down from their panic and began to rush towards the artillery position of the Ma Jiajun.
"The scorpion called the black wolf, we were attacked ten miles south of the county seat of Dole, ask for help, ask for help." Du Jingtao, who had finished calling for support, switched the channel and began to curse again. "Four-zero-two, your fucking eyes are on your ass*, can't you even hit the direction? Where are you going? Four-zero-three, were you jerking off just now? I even used armor-piercing bullets, but I didn't see anything falling? You bastards, cheer me up. Whoever drops the chain again, don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite. ”
"Boom!" With a bang, another cannon in the Ma Jiajun artillery camp was destroyed. To tell the truth, before the tank was equipped with a computerized fire control system or a simple fire control system, the probability of hitting a target thousands of kilometers away in a fast-moving tank by hand and visual was not much higher than the probability of the five million lottery in the middle and later generations.
It has been nearly ten minutes since the artillery battalion of the Ma Jiajun opened fire, and the tanks have fired nearly 100 shells at them, but they can only rely on luck to knock out two of their guns. Therefore, the artillery battalions of the Ma Jiajun are still fighting happily.
"Okay, stop firing shells, don't waste ammunition. Fight again when you get closer! Don't rush too far forward in the third row, slow down a little, and keep up with the second row quickly, do you have constipation? Follow me in a row! Du Jingtao's words were not finished, and he saw the front "Boom!" With a bang, three rows of two tanks advancing side by side fell into a deep pit, rolling up a cloud of dust.
"I'll rub!" Seeing such a situation, Du Yuntao was so angry that he scolded: "The Ma Jiajun who is said by the dog can actually dig traps!" All units should be careful, spread out to Lao Tzu, don't get too close, now is not the time to be a mandarin duck with the same fate! ”
On the position of the Ma Jiajun in the distance, Ma Lu, who was holding a telescope, nodded with satisfaction after seeing the tank of the forward company fall into the trap, turned his head and ordered: "Ma Zhanying, you can order your regiment to charge, let them see how powerful our Ma Jiajun is." ”
"Yes, the lowly position immediately leads people to charge!" Ma Zhanying was so excited that his nose was red, so he ran to the troops behind him, and as he ran, he loudly ordered the personnel to get on their horses and prepare to charge.
At this time, Du Jingtao, who was afraid of the trap, also ordered the troops to stop the charge, and the tanks stopped and surrounded the trap, and the muzzles of the guns were all facing outward.
"Four-one-zero, four-one-one, how are you doing, are you okay? Can the tank rush out? Du Jingtao asked on the radio.
"Lianza, we're fine, it's just that this pit is too high, two meters long, and the tank can't rush out." After hearing the voice on the radio, Du Jingtao breathed a sigh, as long as the person is fine.
"You stay in the tank first, don't come out, we'll cover you by the side." Du Yuntao saw that the explosions around him kept bullets flying, and now it was a dead word when he came out, all of this was still waiting for the big army to come.
At this time, a deafening sound of horses' hooves came from a distance, Du Jingtao looked to the side through the observation glass, a large group of cavalry galloped from the south, and the sound of horses' hooves shook so much that even the people sitting in the tank could clearly feel it.
"Everyone pay attention to protect 410 and 411, circle them, and bring the armored transport vehicle inside. Everyone used machine gun fire and less artillery. Hurry up! Du Yuntao, who was secretly scolding in his heart, hurriedly gave an order loudly.
Originally, the advantages of tanks were mobility, protection, and firepower, but now everyone has to cover the two tanks that fell into the trap, which means that they have lost their greatest mobility advantage, and can only rely on the defense of the tank itself to resist the enemy's attack.
Looking at the smoke and dust that were getting closer and closer and the sound of horses' hooves getting louder and louder, the voice of 411 came from the radio: "Lianza, you can go, leave us alone, if you are surrounded by his army, it will be dangerous." ”
"Shut up, when did I, Du Jingtao, leave my brother." Du Jingtao's shouting and scolding came from the radio: "Okay, don't talk nonsense, everyone come to me, the transport vehicles are all driven to the middle, don't get out of the infantry, open the shooting hole, set up a formation, we want these bandits to see, what is the rain of bullets." ”
The remaining seven tanks and three armored transport vehicles were lined up in the direction of the cavalry under the command of Du Jingtao, the turrets were all pointing forward, and the infantry in the Type 63 armored vehicles opened the shooting holes around them one after another, and the muzzles of their guns stretched out from inside.
Du Jingtao saw that although these soldiers were fighting for the first time, they had no experience, and some were even panicked, but they were still able to stand up to protect their comrades under his own orders. nodded secretly in his heart, they were all good, no worse than their old comrades-in-arms from the original army. As long as these rookies have this quality, they can gradually grow into excellent armored soldiers after being tempered by this war.
"Good! The enemy approached, everyone took their positions, the loader had the M2 machine gun on the roof of the car, and the driver and gunner had two more machine guns. As he spoke, the cavalry of the Ma family army had come to a distance of less than six hundred meters from the tank, and the soldiers of the Ma family army who were in a hurry had already fired indiscriminately on horseback.
These rookie armored soldiers who were just on the verge of war looked at the cavalry getting closer and closer, felt the shaking of the ground, and even though they knew that they were in the thick armor, they couldn't help but beat a little drum in their hearts. Some even began to turn blue, and the hands holding the guns began to tremble a little.
Looking at the swarming cavalry, the corners of Du Jingtao's mouth showed a cruel smile, and he said slowly to the microphone in his hand: "Everyone listen to my orders, prepare, and fire!" ”
"Da Da" The armored soldiers, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, pulled the trigger in their hands.
For a time, the muffled sound of the M2 12.7 large-caliber heavy machine gun and the 7.62 mm light machine gun and the crisp sound of the Garand rifle came from the armored transport vehicle, forming a deafening symphony.
Flames sprayed from tanks or armored vehicles towards the cavalry of the Ma Jiajun, like a chainsaw sweeping through the houses, and the neat formation of the cavalry team that was originally rushing towards seemed to be like an apple that had been bitten by someone, and there was suddenly a big gap.
The remote Ma army galloped through the barren land of the northwest for half a century with their fierce and ferocious cavalry, and from the late Manchu Qing Dynasty, they beat one opponent after another to the ground with sabers or pistols, relying on superb horsemanship and accurate marksmanship.
But today, they encountered a battle formation made of steel, and the cavalry sadly found that the bullets they fired only flashed after hitting the bodies of those steel monsters, and did not even leave a mark. And the tongues of fire they spewed out beat themselves and their companions to the ground.
Watching the horses being punched out of bowl-sized holes by heavy machine gun bullets, and then being pulled backwards by huge kinetic energy, the cavalry on the horses fell in mid-air. The more fortunate cavalrymen were shot in the head by heavy machine guns, and then turned into a mist of blood like a watermelon that would burst, and went to meet their Allah with joy. When the upper body falls on the ground and is covered with countless sand, it will crawl on the ground hard, and then it will be trampled into meat by the hooves of the companions who swarm behind.
When did Ma Zhanying, who was riding a horse and supervising the battle behind the team, see such a tragic scene? In his previous combat career, his cavalry always relied on the fast maneuverability of his war horse, the sharp saber and the sharp marksmanship he had practiced hard to make his opponents wail in front of him. But today, for the first time, he found that the iron cavalry, which he regarded as a symbol of invincibility, was so fragile, that they fell to the ground one after another under the rain of enemy bullets, and the bullets he fired could not hurt the opponent in the slightest.
"Disperse, everyone, disperse!" Ma Zhanying's hoarse and mournful voice resounded loudly on the battlefield.
To tell the truth, Ma Jiajun is worthy of an experienced cavalry team, although it is the first time to encounter a defensive formation composed of steel monsters, and they suffered a big loss at the first battle, but the rich combat experience immediately drove them to subconsciously disperse. Under the command of the imams (officers), the cavalry spontaneously dispersed into small groups and headed for the target in front.
If one looks under the net in the sky, one will see that the cavalry team, which originally resembled an arrow, has dispersed into a large net in a short time, gradually encircling the tanks and armored vehicles that can only stay in place. While surrounding, countless tongues of fire were pouring a rain of metal on the target in the middle.
Seeing the opposing cavalry change formation and outflank themselves, they listened to the clanging of bullets on the armor. Du Jingtao didn't have any choice, who made them unable to move, but he didn't panic, as long as he held on for a few more minutes, the large army would arrive, and then there would be these eight lambs who looked good.
