Du Yang understands these truths, but understanding is understanding, but if these anti-tank trenches are not solved, how can the armored cavalry division defeat so many devils? Thinking of the weak armor and firepower of those light tanks, Du Yang also felt a little bottomless, among which the few Type 81 light tanks were slightly better because of the excellent performance of the armor steel, but the number was too small, as for the Type 95 light tank, which can penetrate its so-called "armor" with rifle steel core bullets at close range, Du Yang was full of curiosity about how the division commander used them instead of these big guys (relatively speaking) under his command to solve the Japanese army's anti-tank trenches

Seeing that the two armored cavalry regiments did not directly attack the position of the devil, but quickly spread out towards the two flanks on the premise of keeping a distance so as not to be hit by Japanese anti-tank fire, Du Yang couldn't help but move in his heart, "Yes, the enemy's frontal position has been built, but what about the flanks?" ”

As Du Yang thought, although the anti-tank trench in front of the Japanese army was completed, because of the hurry, the manpower was concentrated on the front of the position, so the farther to the sides, the slower the excavation speed of the anti-tank trench, and for now, the completed anti-tank trench is really short.

After the two armored cavalry regiments rounded the enemy's flank, that is, the two ends of the trench that were still being dug, they immediately changed their cautious attitude and boldly cut in with the support of self-propelled artillery shelling, so that the trench that the Japanese had dug with all their might and at the fastest speed immediately became useless. Seeing this, the tens of thousands of devils who held the front line had to retreat to the second line of defense that had been preliminarily completed, but in the process, the Japanese army inevitably suffered heavy casualties, and although the tanks and armored vehicles of the two armored cavalry regiments were generally thin-skinned, they were chased and killed by the devils, and secondly, there were lightly armored but extremely powerful Type 81 light tanks rushing ahead. So the losses are minimal.

But even so, there are still a considerable number of devils who have successfully retreated to the second line of defense not far away, and because the Japanese defense lines began to dig at the same time after discovering the attack of the armored cavalry division. Thus, the second line of anti-tank trenches was longer and wider than the first. However, no matter how long the trench was, there were still two ends, and with light tanks and armored vehicles exceeding 30 km/h even off-road, the two armoured cavalry regiments took less than one minute longer than the last one. The second line of defense of the Japanese army was easily dismantled, and then the third and fourth lines of defense were also easily broken by the flanks of the two armored cavalry regiments.

During this period, another problem with the Japanese positions was revealed, these anti-tank trenches were dug to protect against the frontal onslaught of enemy tanks. Now that the enemy has changed to the flank, then the anti-tank trenches in the rear of the Japanese army will also have to be greatly modified, but the trenches that have already been partially completed are not oil paintings that are not well painted and then covered with a layer of oil paintings, where can they be changed in a hurry? At the same time, the flanks are different from the front, there are infinite possibilities, the enemy can cut in at a distance of three kilometers, or cut in again at a detour of five kilometers. It is even possible to go around 10 kilometers and then cut in, which is simply impossible to prevent, and the Japanese army hastily changed the excavation route, which is even more chaotic, on the one hand, destroying the integrity of the original defense line. On the other hand, the devil soldiers who were working subconsciously gave birth to the idea that "what we are doing is useless", and their enthusiasm for work plummeted, and loopholes began to appear in the frontal positions of the Japanese army, which could only be bypassed by the armored cavalry regiment

The great man said that "there is no army on Shijie that is not afraid of interspersed detours", and the devil is no exception, as early as after the first few lines of defense were broken by the "two wings" of the armored cavalry division through the flank roundabout attack, the Japanese army was already panicked, and when they found that even the frontal anti-tank trenches could not stop the enemy, the panic in their hearts was suddenly further amplified, even if the devil's officers kept killing deserters and trying to stabilize the morale of the army, they were just mantis arms as a car, and the atmosphere of defeat quickly spread among the Japanese army.

What's even worse is that the two armored cavalry regiments were so successful that they actually penetrated directly behind the enemy in one breath, and then turned back to kill back, thus exposing a weakness of the Golan trench itself. It turned out that although this special anti-tank trench had a miraculous effect against the armored forces attacking from the front, it was a one-way fortification, once the enemy killed from behind, its effect could not be compared to even the most ordinary trenches, so when the two armored cavalry regiments killed back the carbines, they didn't even need to go around in circles, they just fired artillery to break down the pile of soil ridges and rushed directly over, and the Japanese army, which had already lost confidence, was finally completely defeated. After discovering that the devils were crying and rushing out of the position and losing cover, Du Yang, who had been a little idle before, could finally get back to work, although this kind of beating of the water dogs was too challenging in his eyes

Considering that there are too many enemy troops, and once the ammunition and fuel carried by the armored troops are used up, they will be nothing, so even if the victory is achieved, Ma Zhongying does not dare to be too careless, he asked his subordinates not to scatter and pursue, but should make trade-offs, and use the difference in force and firepower to mobilize the Japanese army and force it to flee to the south. Although the Japanese army also knew that there was a powerful Chinese 15th Army in the south, how could a reprieve be better than an immediate execution of the death penalty, and how many could still think calmly in a panic?

After learning that the devils were successfully driven south, Ma Zhongying completely relieved himself, these 200,000 devils seem to be definitely finished, and as long as most of these Japanese troops can be annihilated, the 15th Group Army will already be invincible on the battlefield on the Eastern Front, the difference is only to win more and win less

But Ma Zhongying didn't want to give the credit to others, and soon issued an order to each regiment through the on-board radio on the tank, "Each regiment immediately concentrates fuel and ammunition as much as possible on the armored regiment, and they will temporarily pursue the Japanese invaders alone, and the rest of the regiments will stay to clean up the battlefield, and follow as soon as possible after replenishing ammunition and fuel."

In fact, during this battle, the tank he rode never approached the front line, but stayed in a relatively safe place to use binoculars to observe the situation on the battlefield, combined with the reports of various regiments, and coordinated command through the radio. (To be continued.) )
