Chapter 266 266 Dangerous Hurdles
The M48 tanks blocking the road were all knocked out, and Su Tian's dragon breath team hit the road again.
"Hurry up, we've wasted a lot of time, we have to rush ahead to pick up the friendly units that have entered the nuclear research institute!"
The Defender attack plane in the sky also circled in the sky, signaling to the ground troops, and then went to look for other valuable targets.
The armored soldier in the Type 99 tank said angrily: "Is it awesome to have wings?" If you can run so far, why don't you go to the depths to find the enemy, you have to be stronger than us. ”
The gunner was a straight man, and he really explained: "Because the combat command will not force the attack aircraft to attack deep behind enemy lines before there is no threat of air defense in the clear air." ”
The commander pushed the gunner and said, "Of course I know, I just don't like them robbing us of our achievements!" ”
The current PLA is very much like the American imperialist or Wang Fan'er of later generations, which is basically accumulated by relying on the strong performance and quantity of equipment, coupled with increasingly sophisticated training. In fact, the combat strength of the Taiwan army at this time was absolutely not weak, but as soon as it came up, it was completely suppressed by the electromagnetic control capability of the PLA. Then a large number of fighters carried out air supremacy and ground suppression and sweeping, and the surgical air raid was very precise to eliminate the limited resistance capability of the Taiwan army. The difference between fighting methods and equipment that has been decades apart is definitely not something that can be bridged by individual martial arts.
Don't look at Su Tian's squad doesn't seem to be strong, but there are also more than a hundred PLA fighters with loaded guns, several 99 Tan and 09 infantry battles, and when the troops below the Xiantai military camp level encounter this squad head-on, they can't fight hard at all.
After passing the destroyed M48 tanks and entering the urban area, Su Tian immediately warned: "All comrades' eyes should be bright, we may encounter a sneak attack by the enemy at any time, and try to pass through this area as quickly as possible." ”
The buildings in this area are all sparse and located on the outskirts of Zhongli, Su Tian did not plan to go through such a dangerous and complex terrain as Zhongli to go to the nuclear research institute in the forest, but planned to go to the periphery as much as possible, avoiding areas where there are too many citizens and there may be ambushes and garrisons of the fruit army. He is here to snatch the nuclear warhead, not to occupy it, and the friendly forces behind him will naturally take control of this area after they arrive.
", RPG!" Suddenly, a rocket hit from the corridor on the second floor of a three-story building not far away, but the accuracy of the shooter was not good, and it hit the front of a tank, and did not directly hit the tank, of course, it hit the armor with 99 tan pis, and it would not lose its combat effectiveness, but the skin of the 09 infantry battle behind it was not as thick as the tank, and it was going to suffer from a rocket.
"There's the second floor, smash him!" The commander observed the enemy and immediately ordered the gunners to counterattack. The 125mm tank gun raised slightly, and fired a shell at the balcony with a bang. The enemy is not stupid, and immediately after the RPG shot, he lowered his head and fled through cover.
It's just that his enemy is too fierce, and he was directly provoked and bombarded with a tank gun, the power of the tank gun is naturally not comparable to a rocket, and the second floor was directly hit by this cannon An open hole, and the flying stones also knocked down the guy who fired the bazooka, and he was seriously injured if he was not directly killed.
Su Tian took the intercom and shouted: "The tank should pay attention to the anti-armor forces of the other side!" ”
The PLA division from the Soviet Union followed a route similar to that of the Soviet Continental Army and was equipped with thousands of tanks, so when preparing for anti-landing operations and defense operations on the island, the Taiwan army focused on anti-armor training and prepared a lot of these weapons. The Taiwan military's anti-tank individual weapons are mainly 66mm Type 1 combat defense rockets, that is, imitations of the M72LAW rocket launchers of the US military. This is a fairly early anti-tank weapon, and the armor-piercing ability is not enough, that is, it can wear 200mm of homogeneous armor. It is a little difficult to fight a tank of the 59D level, let alone a third-generation and a half tank with a homogeneous armor defense of more than 1,000 mm in the Type 99.
Although you can't kill people, it's always easy to go wrong if you're too careless, so Su Tian told everyone to be careful.
"Pass quickly, be on guard!"
Li Ying pulled the bolt in the armored car and said: "There must be enemy troops here, but our combat power is too strong, they don't dare to attack us, so they can only hide in the dark." We want to get over, they want to live, that's all. ”
Su Tian also agreed with Li Ying's judgment, the bazooka hand just now would definitely not appear in this place alone, it must be supported by his other comrades-in-arms nearby, but seeing that the strength of the Jue army was so strong, the tragic scene of the bazooka being bombarded just now, unless they had enough countermeasures, it was impossible to immediately enter the battle.
It was indeed as they expected, a platoon of Taiwanese army infantry was ordered to guard the street corner on the west side of Zhongli, in order to protect the nearby camp, but they never expected that **** would go deep into this place so quickly, and the anti-landing operation did not seem to have worked at all. Moreover, the tanks and combat vehicles of the Jing army are sharp and powerful, even if the Guo army has anti-armor weapons, but the temptation just now obviously felt that it was well hidden, but it was still directly eliminated after being discovered.
In the city, the armored march, the soldiers have been rigorously trained, the vehicles have different angles and positions of cover and cooperation, and the more vulnerable infantry vehicles are protected by tanks. In addition, these tanks are equipped with thermal imaging systems, which are difficult to spot in front of buildings, but they can be easily caught if they are careless.
For example, in later generations, the Syrian government army used tanks and armored vehicles to fight the Free Army, and they were repeatedly blown up, on the one hand, the tanks exported by Maozi were all of a quality problem, and they were okay to scare people or something, but they were extremely unreliable when they really went to the battlefield. On the other hand, the cooperation between each other and the lack of tactical skills and experience, their tanks often inexplicably remain stationary, and then exposed under the streets and buildings, and begin to seek the enemy, and this enemy is still very disorganized, when the vision of a tank behind turns to the other side, the front tank is blown up by an RPG that flies from nowhere. And the tank behind it was not seen, and there was no way to fight back, that is, the free army lacked weapons, otherwise it would not be an unreasonable thing for the regular army of this quality to be overthrown.
Su Tian's detachment was naturally different, and the highly mobile tanks and armored vehicles kept moving on the road, because the attack was sudden, so the Taiwan army had not had time to set up roadblocks, and even at this time it had not yet learned to burn cars to block the road, and the muzzles of the guns that were visiting in different directions made these Taiwanese troops shudder, and no one dared to try to attack these tanks and armored vehicles again.
Su Tian didn't want to entangle with these guys, so he called the attack aircraft through the communication data link system: "This is Xinzi-1, I suspect that there are enemy troops hiding around the coordinates, and after our department passes quickly, please ask the Air Force to strike at it." ”
"Eagle 3-3 received!" The Eagle is a number of the Air Force attack aircraft, the Air Force in order to carry out enough close support, mobilized about 100 new service Defender attack aircraft, because of the excellent VTOL capability, the Maintainer can be replenished on the ships of the Navy, and then take off again to attack, only in terms of ground attack capability, the 8-ton bomb load of the Maintainer is more ferocious than the J-8V of the HNA, naturally this attack aircraft almost does not have air combat capabilities, and there is not much difference from helicopters, and even the same face attack aircraft, such as A-6, A-10 and the like are also unlikely to win.
After leaving this small suburban building, the attack plane that had just robbed the tank combat exploits of the Su Tian squad flew back, and his luck was good, a Taiwan scout poked his head out to observe the Su Tian tank squad after leaving, and happened to be discovered by the defender's own photoelectric observation and sighting system.
Without saying a word, the attack plane directly released an AR-2 missile, which hit the building where the soldier was located. If there were only one or two soldiers there, such an attack option would undoubtedly be a waste of cost, but he judged that the scout should not appear there alone, there should be other Taiwanese troops in this building, so he chose to raze this building directly.
The high-explosive AR-2 slammed headlong into the small building, causing a violent explosion that knocked the building down into rubble. His gamble was correct, and more than a dozen Taiwanese soldiers took refuge in the building, which crushed them all under the tiles and masonry, and some died on the spot, others were seriously injured.
The other frightened Taiwanese soldiers fled from another nearby building one after another, as if they were afraid of being harmed by the pond fish, but the more this happened, the more they became the target of the air attack aircraft, and the defenders unceremoniously used 30 mm Gatling cannons, dozens of shells were fired in a few seconds, and the flesh and blood were torn apart under such a terrifying attack.
The people who flew the defender attack plane were all Red Alert fighters, and ordinary pilots had not yet come into contact with the plane, and the Red Guard fighters naturally had no mercy for the so-called Taiwan compatriots, of course, this was a battlefield, and mercy would cost them their lives.
"Xinzi-1, this is Vulture 3-3, I'm very well fed, thank you for your hospitality!"
"Ha Luha, so good, thank you!" Su Tian replied.
After overcoming one difficulty after another, Su Tian's team finally crossed a distance of 20 kilometers and arrived at the periphery of the Nuclear Research Institute. As the most mysterious and important scientific research institution in Taiwan, there are really many defensive troops here, and not long ago, the special forces of the Marine Corps attacked it, and in order to drive these troops out, the Taiwanese troops surrounding here attacked in an all-round way.
What is even more troubling is that these Taiwanese troops are all sporadic and small groups, and there are no large targets such as tanks, and they are in the buildings of Taiwan's Chinese Academy of Sciences, and they continue to exchange fire with the troops of the evil Jiao and the snow leopard that have already landed to search for nuclear warheads. The Air Force naturally knows that its partners here are under heavy attack, but the nuclear bomb is here, and any sloppiness could cause a nuclear explosion, so there is no other way than to mobilize more troops to break the siege and search for the nuclear bomb.
It was also at this time that Su Tian's Dragon's Breath squad entered the battle as the first support force to arrive.
