2075 Tiger Tank
Yuan Zhen thought to himself, yesterday we carried out tactical deception on the German army, they did not know in advance that we were going to launch an attack in the early hours of this morning, in this case, their anti-aircraft artillery units can still be dispatched quickly, causing a lot of losses to the 3rd Air Division, now that the German army is prepared, won't the 3rd Air Division lose even more if it passes over?
Yuan Zhen's hesitation was seen by the chief of staff, and the chief of staff couldn't help but persuade: "Commander, don't hesitate, it's a rare opportunity!" ”
Yuan Zhen frowned and said, "What proportion of the German anti-aircraft artillery unit has been transferred to the No. 24 area?" If the proportion of transfers is extremely small, our 3rd Air Force Division will be ramming into the enemy's muzzle! ”
The chief of staff was speechless, he also knew that their agents could only observe from the outside of the German army, and could not penetrate deep into the German army, the German Reich Security Bureau was not a dry meal, and it was difficult for Chinese agents to go deep into the enemy army as they did with Southeast Asian and Central Asian countries, so the detailed troop movements of the German army were unknown.
Yuan Zhen knew that the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and the fighters were fleeting and could not be delayed for a moment, so he compared the consequences of the two situations -- if a large number of German antiaircraft artillery units were transferred away and the 3rd Air Division could calmly bomb, the Germans would lose 40 percent of their logistical supply capability, and the German army's logistical supply capability would already be weak, and a subtraction of 40 percent would be enough to inflict fatal wounds on the German army!
If only a small part of the German antiaircraft artillery unit is transferred away, the 3rd Air Division will not be able to bomb calmly, and the consequence will be the loss of the bomber and crew of the bomber.
Yuan Zhen compared the two results and found that the possible gains from dispatching the 3rd Air Division to bomb were far greater than the possible losses, so he decided to dispatch the 3rd Air Division to bomb!
The 3rd Air Force Division immediately dispatched and flew to the No. 6, No. 9 and No. 13 areas, during the flight, the crew members beat drums in their hearts, no matter how high the morale of the fighters of the Chinese Air Force is, it is impossible not to be afraid in the face of the threat of death!
It was pitch black on the ground, nothing could be seen, during the Sino-Japanese war, this condition could not complete the bombing, because at that time the bombing required visual identification of the target, and now the situation is different, the aircraft is equipped with a highly accurate strapdown inertial navigation system, which can accurately calculate the position of the aircraft, so as to determine the distance from the aircraft to the target, and then bomb the target on the ground.
In the captain's plane, the navigator said to the captain: "We are now in the air above the target and can bomb it." ”
The captain nodded and instructed the bombardier to prepare for the bombardment, and the bombardier turned on the ranging radar and dropped the bomb, and sparks bloomed on the ground.
In the process, there were no anti-aircraft artillery units attacking them!
The bombing lasted only 20 minutes, and the leader of the captain led his subordinates to return home, they were at an altitude of several thousand meters, and it was dark night, and it was impossible to see the effect of the bombing, so they did not know that 20 material transfer stations had been destroyed by them.
At the headquarters of the German 5th Heavy Division, Adenauer almost fainted when he heard the news of the destruction of twenty material transfer stations! Adenauer thought that the Chinese Air Force would not attack again after losing the First World War, so he transferred the anti-aircraft artillery unit to the artillery position, but he never expected that the Chinese agents would find out about the movement of the anti-aircraft artillery unit, and the Chinese Air Force immediately killed it!
Adenauer carefully estimated the situation and thought in his heart: "Twenty material transit stations have been blown up, if we are beaten passively, maybe we will be dragged to death by the Chinese, now it is better to give it a go, attack and defend, as long as the Chinese army is dragged for about ten hours, the fourth heavy division can appear behind the first and third divisions of the Siberian Front, and our pressure will be reduced a lot." ”
Thinking of this, Adenauer immediately picked up the phone on the table and ordered in a loud voice: "The 15th Brigade and the 14th Brigade will immediately attack the 1st Brigade of the 1st Division of the Siberian Front!" The Thirteenth Brigade covers on the flanks! ”
Adenauer's command level is still not low, and the intention of his order is to concentrate local superior forces, attack one main Chinese brigade with two main German brigades, and eat this main brigade as quickly as possible!
The news of the three brigades crossing the border line to attack the Chinese army immediately reached Yuan Zhen's desk, at which point the three brigades of the 1st Division were deployed in a triangle, with the 1st Brigade at the front and the 2nd and 3rd Brigades on the flanks in the rear direction.
Yuan Zhen saw the two German brigades surrounding the first brigade, and he understood Adenauer's intention to concentrate local superior forces, and secretly sneered in his heart, there is one of the military principles summarized by our Lin Shuai - to concentrate superior forces, not only to concentrate as a whole, but also to concentrate in parts, we have used this move to defeat countless opponents, you use this move in front of us are not looking for death?
On this battlefield, the Chinese army had two divisions and had absolute superiority, so Yuan Zhen decisively decided that the second and third brigades of the first division would advance left and right to resist the two German brigades, and the third division would press on the whole line and attack the third brigade of the German army as a flank cover.
As a result, on the battlefield, there was a situation in which three Chinese brigades fought against two German brigades, and one division attacked one brigade of the German army, and the Chinese army already had an advantage in the situation!
It is not enough to have an advantage in the situation, because the victory or defeat of the battle will also be determined by the battle on the battlefield! The main force in this battle was the tank, so the battle became a contest between the TK-96 tank and the German tank!
The German tank was named "Tiger" by the German emperor, hoping that this tank can sweep the Chinese army like a tiger, Germany is one of the leaders of the second industrial revolution in the era of Lin Yuan, and the same is true of this era, the power technology is very developed, driven by the developed power technology, the electric steelmaking furnace has risen from the ground, and the electric furnace can smelt more high-quality steel, so the German steel industry is also quite developed.
Germany's previous industrial base was quite good, the Dingyuan ship and the Zhenyuan ship of the Beiyang Fleet, the Armstrong artillery and Krupp artillery used by the Qing Army were all produced in Germany, a good industrial base and advanced power industry, so that the German Tiger tank was outstanding, in the tank list listed by Western military experts, the Tiger tank has been ranked first for many years, on this list, China's TK-96 tank can't even enter the top five!
The Tiger tank is equipped with the same model of 105 mm tank gun as the T-97 tank, but Germany's own model has better performance, the Tiger tank is superior to the T-97 tank mainly in terms of armor, mobility and fire control system, because Germany does not have the same corruption as Russia when manufacturing tanks, so the electronic components purchased from the United States are the best of the best, and the Tiger tank's "Tiger's Eye" fire control system far exceeds that of the T-97 tank.
