In the rickety armored car, Yan Baohang finally regained a trace of clarity, and looked at the top of his head arched in the middle, which he had never seen before, and a soldier fiddling with a huge machine gun, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and asked, "What kind of car is this?" ”

Xue Yue is still young, and he can't help but be excited to introduce it ().

This kind of armored car is the new equipment of the Wehrmacht, giving full play to the spirit of "international patchwork", because Hubei encountered the problem that the spring steel was not up to par when imitating the Austrian Daimler four-wheel drive armored car, which caused the chassis to be unable to withstand the pressure when it was bumpy, and the armored car was not a very much-needed equipment, so Yang Qiu simply developed the four-wheel drive chassis in the direction of the jeep. In order to meet the demand for armored vehicles, 128 Opel truck chassis were first imported from Germany. This three-ton small truck is very famous in Europe, known for its wide and strong chassis, and Chongqing Krupp carburized steel plate has just been tested at that time, and bought a batch of armor steel plates from Skoda, but Yang Qiu insisted on using his own 75-horsepower gasoline engine on the most critical engine, even if the quality and reliability rate are far worse than those abroad, he also ordered to use it, and also insisted that the military should use its own model no matter what type of engine it chooses, as long as it can be produced by itself.

The appearance of the car has also changed the design of Daimler's large turtle shell with a round head and a round head, with a square fold and a 10-degree tilt on the front, which can effectively prevent all 7.92 mm caliber bullets except K bullets, and the machine gun tower is also a rotatable riveted square structure, which looks very much like the German KFZ13 armored car with a machine gun tower and a large circle. Considering that pneumatic tires are very easy to damage in the wilderness, rubber wheels continue to be used, but the wheels are doubled to increase stability, and in order to prevent slippage in rain and mud, anti-skid chains are issued in case of emergency.

In terms of firepower, it was originally planned to install a self-produced imitation MG8/15 Han-III heavy machine gun, but more than half a year ago, Liu Qingen finally imitated the M2HB heavy machine gun and put it into production in Hubei and Chongqing at the same time, so he immediately chose this model as a standard equipment (). Under the guidance of Yang Qiu, manufacturers in Hubei, Chongqing and Jiangnan began to name their products, no longer simply by year. This is mainly to form their own brand in the future to ensure patent rights, for example, this time Hubei named M2HB Fang, from the name you can see the power of this machine gun.

The armored car also got the name Gray Wolf.

The performance of this Gray Wolf 14-year armored car is not bad after testing, with 4 members, 5 people in an emergency, and a weight of 3.8 tons. It can travel 80 kilometers per hour on the road, only 20 kilometers in the wilderness, and its own fuel tank can ensure a driving range of 150 kilometers. The 12.7mm Fanged heavy machine gun, which has also been patented, is fed with a 110-round canvas cartridge belt, and is somewhat inferior in speed to the metal chain of later generations. The whole vehicle has 1,100 rounds of ammunition, and the armored self-defense weapon is a 32-round machine gun fed from below.

Yan Baohang had heard so many terms, and now his mind was full of leading the Wehrmath back to Linjiatai. Kill all those Japanese soldiers! So I only care about one thing: "Chief Xue, can this car beat the Japanese cavalry?" ”

"Cavalry? Ha ha. ”

Yan Baohang's words made the four people in the carriage laugh, and Xue Yue didn't have time to explain to him that the 103 Brigade had attacked Henan with more than a dozen armored vehicles, and when he saw a low forest, his eyes rolled, and the four gray wolves were hiding behind the woods and waiting, and the cavalry battalion commander was also a clever ghost, knowing that this was an ambush, he immediately lined up a cavalry company to hook out the Japanese army.

Excitedly, the cavalry boys only had to look at the thick barrels that ejected from the machine gun tower. was full of energy, and rushed towards Lin Jiatai with a roar. Within a moment, the sound of gunfire could be heard faintly in the sky. I don't know how big a hornet's nest was stabbed, and the gunfire became more and more intense.

As soon as the gunshots were heard, the four gray wolves restarted. Through the sparse birch forest machine gun turrets, they slowly pointed in the direction of the gunfire. Hearing the gunshot, Yan Baohang's eyes turned red again, and when he saw that the machine gun tower was occupied by the machine gunners excitedly, he simply climbed to the front and looked through the observation window, Xue Yue knew that his mind also gave up the co-pilot position, and when he saw the dust flying in the distance, Yan Baohang's teeth were about to be crushed.

Soon two groups of cavalry chasing each other appeared, the Oriental horse in the mouth of the country is actually a Persian war horse that Japan spent a lot of money to introduce, the endurance is poor but the sprint speed is fast, so the cavalry of the 14th division riding the Mongolian horse is not dominant, but extremely dangerous, seeing that the closer and closer the chase many people simply use the heel spur to pierce the skin of the war horse to stimulate the acceleration ().

Fortunately, these young men of the 14th Division, who had been in Mukden all the year round, also knew that their war horses were inferior to those of Japan, so they lured the enemy far away, and after rushing through the woods and turning a corner, only two of them were bitten by bullets in their arms and thighs and were slightly injured.

When the Japanese cavalry saw the opponent turning through the woods, they also subconsciously slowed down for fear of an ambush, but after all, they were used to running rampant in the northeast, so they did not stop completely, and when they approached the woods, Xue Yue immediately shouted: "Rush out and fire at full speed!" The gray wolf was far from the flexible standard of World War II armored vehicles, and only staggered away after a rough roar in the face of potholes and fields, but no matter how suddenly the four armored vehicles that came out and included in the iron wall still startled the Japanese cavalry, and subconsciously turned their horses to the left to prepare to bypass.

But it's too late! After using imported raw materials to manufacture a dual-base propellant, the imitation M2HB 12.7mm fanged heavy machine gun has basically reached the standards of World War II, which is nothing for it with an effective firing range of 1600 meters and a maximum of 6000 meters. The four armored vehicles lined up side by side, and the four fanged heavy machine guns rang out almost at the same time, and the unique knock rhythm frightened the cavalry battalion horses to neigh continuously, and the bullets of the shuttle suddenly made Yan Baohang, who had seen the regular army fighting for the first time, unable to shut his mouth anymore.

Even though the Wehrmacht machine gunners, who were not rich in bullets, were severely limited in their rate of fire, the four fanged heavy machine guns still formed a metal barrage in front of the Japanese army, and the 12.7 mm bullet with a thumb thickness was far more powerful than the standard 7.62 bullet, Yan Baohang even saw with his own eyes that after a Japanese cavalryman was shot in the waist, the entire upper body was broken, and after falling to the ground, the war horse still rushed out with the lower body.

In the rhythm of the knock knock, there were constantly Japanese cavalry being hit by bullets, and a Japanese cavalryman saw that he couldn't escape and simply turned around and rushed towards the armored car, but before he could run a few steps, the horse was hit by two bullets in a row, and the horse's neck fell to the side as if it was forcibly torn by something.

The Japanese Army, where a Maxim is an artifact, has never seen such a powerful machine gun, and as long as the terrible bullet hits the target, it will be killed or injured, and even the war horse will not be spared. Even the cavalry of the 14th Division, who was hiding behind and was still gloating, gradually chilled down their spines when they saw this scene, is this a fucking cannon or a machine gun? If you charge yourself, do this.

When they swallowed their saliva wildly, Xue Yue had already ordered the formation to disband and fire separately, and the driver was ordered to immediately step on the accelerator to the end (). After the engine spewed puffs of black smoke, the wheels rolled towards the stunned Japanese cavalry. The two cartridge belts were quickly finished, and by the time the third cartridge belt was loaded, dozens of corpses of Japanese cavalry and war horses were already lying in the field.

"Spread out, pull away and rush over, with grenades!"

The Japanese second lieutenant finally saw that the speed was not slow and there was the help of a long-range large-caliber machine gun. The casualties of running can only be greater, so they simply gritted their teeth and took the lead in turning around and charging at the armored car, and the continuous rate of fire of the fanged heavy machine gun was not enough, so the lethality of the Japanese cavalry was much smaller after pulling away. Seeing this, Xue Yue immediately picked up a flower machine gun, and when he saw Yan Baohang's eyes on fire, he also gave him one. After helping him turn the fast and slow machine to the third engine point, he pointed to the small steel plate with a bolt next to the car body.

After Yan Baohang pulled the latch, Xue Xue Yue pushed up and a small shooting hole appeared.

The machine gun above his head was still hissing. The brass bullet shells kept jumping into the bamboo basket hanging next to it with a crisp sound, and many of them fell into the carriage and spilled everywhere, and several of them fell on Yan Baohang's body, all of which were hot and hot. The steel plate in front of him was even more clanging by the Japanese bullets, and every time he doubted whether it would be pierced, but as the Japanese cavalry got closer and closer, there was no problem, that is, he completely let go of his mind Xue Yue aimed outside through the shooting hole.

Suddenly, a Japanese cavalryman appeared in his field of vision, and Yan Baohang subconsciously pulled the trigger. However, due to the distance, the submachine gun did not hit him, but the heavy machine gun on his head helped him break the guy's shoulder and arm. "Fifty meters again! Look at the front sight and pull the trigger once for three bullets. Xue Yue shot when he saw him a hundred meters away. Knowing that he didn't understand the performance of the submachine gun, after a few words of care, a target appeared on his side and hurriedly pulled the trigger.

The Japanese cavalry had just congratulated themselves on dodging the rain of bullets, and pulled out their grenades and prepared to kill this big guy for meritorious service. Unexpectedly, a string of more dense bullets suddenly popped out next to the car body and swept him off the warhorse. As more and more cavalrymen broke through the machine-gun blockade at the risk of death, the sound of bells on the steel plates became more and more intense, Yan Baohang unknowingly finished a whole magazine, and after sweeping the two Japanese soldiers who crossed in his direction off his horse, if it wasn't for the reloader next to him to remind him to change the magazine, it is estimated that he would still be pulling the trigger.

Seeing that several Japanese cavalry machine guns and submachine guns were blocked, the cavalry boys of the 14th Division who were watching the battle behind them also joined the battle circle one after another, following behind the armored vehicles to pick up leaks, and hundreds of rifles had no pressure to deal with three or two small fish ().

Rumble!

Just when Yan Baohang was in tears and hated that he couldn't smash all the bullets out to avenge his classmates and the innocent people of Lin Jiatai, a shell a hundred meters away made Xue Yue vigilant, this place is not far from Lin Jiatai, and the appearance of artillery means that the opposing infantry is coming up, and four armored vehicles and a cavalry battalion can not deal with the infantry with artillery, so he immediately ordered to retreat.

The Japanese artillery shells began to fall incessantly in the rumbling explosions, and the cavalry of the 14th Division, which followed on the left and right, began to show losses, and the few remaining Japanese cavalry also took the opportunity to retreat to the artillery to clean up. After the Japanese cavalry went away, the machine gunners did not want to waste any more bullets, and the four gray wolves began to accelerate and retreat, but car No. 3 was still shredded by a shell at close range, and the two armored soldiers in the car were seriously injured.

Fortunately, the shell tore through the side and rear and did not damage the cab and the front engine, so the car could barely move, and when it was out of range, the cavalry immediately separated four horses and dragged car No. 3 with a rope to accelerate the evacuation.

Soon after the armored company left, Sadao Araki, who arrived at Lin Jiatai with the main force, heard about the exchange of fire and immediately rushed to the battlefield, and dozens of broken corpses also startled him, the Wehrmacht had armored vehicles He knew, but he didn't expect such a powerful heavy machine gun! Although I really wanted to send a pursuer to capture one, but the corpses all over the ground proved that it would be very expensive to rely on cavalry without infantry, not to mention that the most important thing now was to seize the time to open the Sky Ridge and recapture the Baofen Coal and Iron Mine, so after leaving a brigade and cavalry wing to garrison Lin Jiatai, he immediately ordered an attack on the Sky Ridge 20 miles away.

Two hours later, nearly 30 75-mm field guns and cavalry guns began to bombard the positions of the 2nd Brigade of Motianling, and hundreds of shells fell from the sky in an arc, and Shimose gunpowder emitting orange poisonous smoke kicked off the battle......
