The tanks of the Soviet Russian Red Army are basically French Renault F-17 tanks. This light tank weighs only seven tons. The speed was slow, and the armor was even weaker. Its armament is mainly divided into two types, one is an 8 mm machine gun, and the other is a 37 mm short-barreled tank gun. In World War I, tanks were mainly used to support infantry operations. So, it is very common to be armed with machine guns and short-barreled guns.

During the war, the Russian Red Army captured many of these tanks from the intervention forces of Britain, France, the United States and other countries. Together with their own imitations, they were organized into a tank army, with a total of more than 200 vehicles. Among them, machine gun models and artillery models each account for about half.

The Russian Red Army had high hopes for the attack of the tank army. Voroshilov also personally rushed to the front line to watch the offensive of the tank corps this time. In addition to the tank army, the 6th Army, of which Voroshilov was the commander of the army group, also went to the front, making the strength of the Soviet Russian Red Army even stronger.

"Rush! Tear open the defense line of the Chinese and crush them! Voroshilov said secretly. If the tank army can successfully break through the defense line of the Chinese army, then the infantry following the tank can further expand the results of the battle with the support of the tank, and thus establish victory in one fell swoop. Voroshilov can be said to have put all his hopes on this attack. Therefore, he attaches great importance to this attack. If even the tank army can't break through the defense line of the Chinese army, then they may lose this time.

"Boom!" The tank's motors rang out and converged as if they were thundering.

It's a pity that the offensive of the Soviet Russian Red Army is not destined to be smooth sailing. The fighters of the Chinese Air Force, hovering in the sky, first launched an attack on the tank corps of the Soviet Russian Red Army. A2 attack aircraft one after another. Bombs were dropped on the heads of the tank units of the Russian Red Army. Although, the A2 attack aircraft is not a dive bomber, it is not easy to accurately hit a tank moving on the ground. But even throwing a bomb near the tanks of the Russian Red Army was enough to destroy these weakly armored tanks.

One by one, 50-kilogram aerial bombs exploded. The shock wave formed blew the tanks of the Soviet Russian Red Army to the ground. The shrapnel of the bomb easily cut through the tank of the Russian Red Army and killed the tankers inside.

It's just that because the tanks of the Soviet Russian Red Army are relatively scattered, the number of A2 attack aircraft is only a dozen. The results achieved by dropping bombs were not significant. It was nothing more than a dozen tanks of the Russian Red Army. The tank of the Russian Red Army was more lethal, but it was the aerial gun in the nose of the A2 attack aircraft. The 20 mm cannon was more than enough to tear through the top armor of the Renault F-17 tank. So, the A2 attack aircraft passed this attack. Directly let more tanks of the Soviet Russian Red Army be scrapped.

As for the aviation machine guns of the F5 fighters, it seems that there are still some insufficient tanks against the Soviet Russian Red Army. However, they can pour their firepower upon the infantry who are following behind the tank. Although the human body is not as strong as the defense of a tank, it is easily torn to pieces by bullets fired by aviation machine guns.

The raging of the Imperial Air Force caused considerable losses to the tank corps of the Soviet Russian Red Army, and Voroshilov and Kasnov, who were watching the battle in the rear. I couldn't help twitching the corners of my mouth. If the Chinese Air Force had dispatched a little more fighters, perhaps the tank army of the Soviet Russian Red Army would have been completely lost under the attack of the Chinese Air Force. Not to mention the follow-up battles.

"Comrade Commander. Compared with the Chinese, there is indeed a big gap between our military strength! This gap has almost reached a stage where it cannot be bridged with the will to fight and courage. Not to mention anything else, our air force, combat effectiveness and tactics are not as strong as the Chinese. Kasnov lamented. Although, he is a guy who looks down on yellow people from the bottom of his bones. But he had to admit that the combat effectiveness of the Chinese* army was much stronger than the current Soviet Russian Red Army.

Voroshilov nodded: "Our foundation is too thin, and years of war have dragged us down. Fortunately, Comrade Ulyanov still attaches great importance to the Air Force. We are catching up with the world. Soon. We will be able to have our own fighters of our own design and manufacture. At that time, the Chinese will not be so arrogant anymore. ”

Kasnov nodded, he was looking forward to that day. However, this is not helpful in the current war situation.

The planes of the Chinese Air Force dropped all the bombs, and after all the shells and bullets, they swaggered away. This also made the Soviet Russian Red Army finally breathe a sigh of relief. If the Chinese Air Force continues to wreak havoc, won't they have to pay a greater price?

The tank corps of the Russian Red Army continued to attack. At this time, the positions of the 3rd Infantry Division of the Imperial Army were busy. One door of anti-tank guns was deployed to the trenches. The anti-tank guns that the Imperial Army was now generally equipped with were 37 mm tank guns. This tank gun is capable of penetrating thirty mm of steel at a distance of a thousand meters. For today's mainstream tanks in the world, almost all of them cannot resist this kind of anti-tank gun. The Imperial Army, in each infantry company, was armed with two of these anti-tank guns. It can be used not only against armored targets, but also against enemy pillboxes and permanent fire points.

On the front line of the 3rd Infantry Division, dozens of these anti-tank guns were assembled, and the muzzles were already aimed at the approaching Soviet and Russian tanks. Just wait for the tanks to come into range and then open fire.

When the Russian tanks approached only more than 800 meters from the position of the 3rd Infantry Division of the Imperial Army, the commanders of the front line gave the order to open fire. One by one, anti-tank artillery shells flew out of the barrels and quickly flew towards the tanks of the Soviet Russian Red Army. The muzzle velocity of the anti-tank gun was very fast, and it took almost a second to hit the tank of the Soviet Red Army.

The shell hit the tank and, under the action of huge kinetic energy, tore through the weak armor of the tank. Streams of metal particles swept through the inside of the tank, killing the people inside, and even causing the ammunition inside to explode, blowing the entire tank into scrap metal.

Under the heavy fire of the tank guns of the Imperial Army, the tanks of the Russian Red Army were destroyed one after another. Neither a machine-gun tank nor an artillery tank could withstand these tank guns.

"Boom!" A moving Russian tank slammed into a fist-sized bullet hole. The tank crew inside was killed in an instant.

After encountering the fierce fire of the anti-tank units of the Imperial Army, the losses of the tank corps of the Soviet Russian Red Army rose sharply. More and more tanks were destroyed, causing panic throughout the tank unit.

"The Chinese are armed with a large number of anti-tank guns, how is that possible?" Voroshilov's face was already gloomy, as if it were the bottom of a pot.

"Comrade commander, it seems that the Chinese have long been prepared. They were stronger, and once again exceeded our expectations. Kasnov's brow furrowed. If even the tank forces of the Russian Red Army could not be effective, then their offensive would probably end in failure. At that time, the Russian Red Army will completely lose this war. And they, the commanders, will bear a great deal of responsibility. The lightest punishment is also removal from office, and if it is more serious, it is not impossible to even be tried by a military court, and even sentenced to execution.

Voroshilov's hands were clenched into fists, and his eyes were full of anger and helplessness. Perhaps, he did not expect that this war would encounter such a powerful enemy.

This made him wonder whether it was right or wrong to attack Western Siberia and start a war with the Chinese Empire. The Soviet Russian Red Army defeated the intervention armies of the Western powers before, and it was a little empty-sighted and underestimated the appearance of a powerful country in the world. Now it seems that there is undoubtedly a big gap between the Soviet Russian Red Army and the world's first-class army!

The tank units of the Russian Red Army continued to attack, and as the distance continued to close, the tanks began to return fire. Whether it was a 37-mm short-barreled tank gun or an 8-mm machine gun, they were desperately firing, and the positions of the Chinese Army were in dust. Even if you can't do too much damage to the Chinese Army, at least you can give yourself some courage all day long.

In the rear positions of the 3rd Infantry Division of the Chinese Army, officers and men of the 2nd Panzer Division of the Imperial Army Janissaries were waiting for the order to attack.

"****, those anti-tank guns have to be leisurely! If they had eliminated all the tanks of the red hair, wouldn't we have pounced? If they eat meat, they must leave us some soup. Major General Ma Xiufang, the commander of the armored division, scolded secretly. The air raids of the Air Force took out part of the tanks of the Soviet Russian Red Army. If some of the anti-tank forces are destroyed, then, I'm afraid, there won't be much left.

"Division commander, the commander has given the order to attack." The communications soldier rushed to the ground running, shouting as he ran.

"Haha! The opportunity has finally arrived. Launch the tank, prepare to attack, and destroy all the tanks of the red hair, and not a single one can be spared! Major General Ma Xiufang ordered loudly.

The armored units of the Imperial Army have been formed for many years, but they have been in training, and even if they are exercises, they are similar to the battlefield. Now, it's a rare opportunity to be able to fight in real combat!

The engines of the tanks began to roar, and one by one, the tanks were killed on the battlefield. (To be continued.) )
