The mechanized troops of the Chinese Army are divided into two categories, the first of which is the mechanized armored unit used in field warfare, which is composed of tanks, assault guns, tank destroyers and artillery, which is the hammer of the attack. The other type is mechanized infantry, they are all lightly armed, and the vehicles equipped are only light vehicles that can withstand rifle bullets, and occasionally there are some armored vehicles that shined in the last Sino-Russian war, this is just a thin stuffed bun in the face of a dense variety of anti-aircraft guns on the frontal battlefield, but if you face the Russian cavalry that lacks heavy weapons, such a unit that can quickly maneuver and is equipped with a large number of rapid-fire weapons is definitely a nightmare for light cavalry.

They have a specific title in the Chinese Army, and that is the Stalker! CHASING DOWN THE FLEEING ENEMY WITH SPEED, IN TERMS OF FIREPOWER AND PROTECTION, THEY ARE NOT AS GOOD AS THE ARMORED FORCES, NOT TO MENTION THE 75MM GUNS ON THE ASSAULT GUNS, THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE 57 GUNS, BUT THEIR VEHICLES HAVE THE MAXIMUM RANGE, AND THE RELIABILITY IS GOOD. They are not suitable for storming, but they are definitely suitable for pursuing their opponents in the open and uncovered wasteland, whether the opponent is infantry or cavalry, and will be exhausted by their long and uninterrupted pursuit and coercion.

By the time Youlong I managed to defeat Major Galev's attack, a battalion of pursuers was already preparing to attack the cavalry on the periphery of No. 1135. They now need to wait until dawn, and carry forward the firepower if they can carry forward the advantage of firepower, and do not make unnecessary sacrifices, although because of the assembly line, the cost of the car is much lower, but this thing is already a luxury in this era. Not to mention the heavy-duty car with armor and weapons attached. The pursuers were not afraid of each other running away. Because they know that most of the enemies in front of them will definitely fight to the death to buy time to deliver the message. However, the Huaxia Army was not in a hurry to intercept and kill these cavalrymen. Because no matter whether these cavalrymen send the information over or not, the result of the other party will be eaten in one bite during the long pursuit! The enemy is tired and easier to hit!

WHEN THE SUN WAS SHINING ON THE EARTH AGAIN, THE CHINESE HUNTERS HAD ALREADY COMPLETED THEIR WORST COMBAT PREPARATIONS, 4 VEHICLE-MOUNTED MORTARS WERE ARRANGED IN THE REAR, HEAVY ARMORED VEHICLES ARMED WITH 37MM RAPID-FIRE GUNS WERE ARRANGED IN THE FRONT, AND ARMORED VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH MACHINE GUNS WERE ARRANGED IN THE BACK, IN THE BACK? Well, there are still some cavalry! No way, there are not enough cars. Only some people could be equipped with horses. On the wings were lightly protected vehicles, which were armed only with light machine guns. The weapon protection was nothing more than a large shield on the front, and the entire machine gun tower was not completely covered by armor. These lightly protected chariots were responsible for flanking and positioning, somewhat like the original light cavalry. Having crushed the enemy positions head-on, attack the enemy, who had already lost his organization, from the flank.

KICKING OFF THE BATTLE WAS THE 82MM MORTAR. Shells bombarded the makeshift bunkers, and from time to time Russian officers and soldiers were crushed by the suppressive fire, which was surprising. The Russians did not take the initiative to attack the artillery positions of the Chinese Army. Instead, they have been carrying it with the help of terrain and shelter. 4 82MM MORTARS COULD NOT INFLICT A DEVASTATING BLOW TO THE ENEMY OF A BATTALION, AFTER DESTROYING SEVERAL EXPOSED BUNKERS AND MACHINE-GUN POSITIONS OF THE OPPOSING SIDE. The long-prepared Chinese Army Hunter units launched an attack. The armored vehicles responsible for the frontal assault formed a wedge-shaped formation and prepared to attack.

ON THE FRONT IS THE BEST PROTECTED 37MM MACHINE-GUN CHARIOT, FLANKED BY MACHINE-GUN FIRE, AND ALL CAVALRY WHO TRY TO LAUNCH A SUICIDAL ATTACK BY QUICKLY ENGAGING THE ENEMY WILL FIRST BE INTERCEPTED BY A 37MM RAPID-FIRE GUN WITH A HIGH RATE OF FIRE, FOLLOWED BY DENSE MACHINE-GUN FIRE AND CAVALRY ATTACKS, PLUS THE SPEED OF THE PURSUERS IS NOT HIGH. The chances of cavalry are actually not very large. Commander Li Wei once again looked at the entire battlefield. On the front is the opponent's position, on the left is a small river without any ambush, and on the right is a forest. There is also a small hill between the positions and the woods. It's a good way to connect the two places together.

Faced with such a terrain, Li Wei suddenly hesitated. Although there are fast convoys on both wings that can be outflanked, but because of the restrictions of the terrain, the two wings cannot quickly deploy the attack surface is still narrow, and the light tank cannot enter the river or the woods easily, on the one hand, the problem of sight is easy to be outflanked by the enemy troops in ambush, on the other hand, it is the problem of contact, although the armored forces have been established, but the problem of communication can still not be solved, after all, the current radio station can not be put on a small car. Moreover, even if it is put on the car, there is not so much money to equip each vehicle with a radio station, so the battlefield of the Chinese Army is a squad operation, and the two sides use signal flags and lights to communicate, so that the battle is completely a small group operation, and the coordination and attack depend on the quality and awareness of officers and soldiers. Therefore, in the training manual of the tank unit, it is clearly stated that the restriction of fighting in narrow and complex terrain is clearly proposed.

"Dismount the cavalry, cooperate with the chariot unit charge, bring more grenadiers, and pay attention to the woods and hills on the side. The speed of the car decreases further, and we take our time. Li Wei thought for a moment and ordered. In fact, the speed of the combat vehicle and the infantry will not be very fast, the infantry needs to carry machine guns and grenadiers or mortars These are relatively heavy weapons, and they need to be deployed to fight, so in order to ensure that the combat vehicles and infantry are coordinated, the speed of the two sides is subject to the speed of the infantry, fortunately, the distance from the attack trigger position to the opponent's position is not far.

The mortar fire in the rear was again extended, and with the roar of vehicles, the first battle of the pursuers began. Heavy armored vehicles took the lead, followed by mixed units of light armored vehicles and infantry, rushing to the positions of the Russian troops on the opposite side. At 1000 meters, there was no sound on the battlefield except for sporadic artillery sounds, and at 800 meters, the battlefield was still quiet. When the distance was shortened to 600 meters, tongues of fire suddenly erupted from the woods on the flank, accompanied by the roar of machine guns, and strings of bullets swept towards the attacking Huaxia troops. The lightly armored car located on the flank reacted quickly, and at the first moment turned the machine gun in its hand and began to suppress the opponent's machine gun position. The infantry support detachments on the flanks then began to lay down 60 mortars and grenadiers to destroy, although the woods obstructed the view to a certain extent, but the dense grenadier and mortar fire still overturned several machine guns hidden in them. A crisis was defused.

Having cleared the flanks of the threat, the Huaxia troops continued to advance, 500 meters! 450 meters! When the distance between the two sides was shortened to 350 meters, the real exchange of fire officially began, and in an instant, as if a volcano erupted, the Chinese army and the Russians opened fire, and the rain of bullets from mortars, machine guns and rifles swept the entire battlefield in an instant, the Russians had cover, and the Chinese infantry relied on combat vehicles to fight. The 37mm rapid-fire cannon fired a barrage of shells that knocked out the exposed machine gun positions one by one, and the well-defended bunkers were handed over to the mortars behind for long-range support.

Although the firepower of the Russians is fierce, but the dense bullets can't do anything about these steel monsters, all kinds of armored vehicles are still slowly advancing, although the attack speed has slowed down greatly, but they are still crushing forward, if you go according to the situation in front of you, it is said that there should be no problems, but Li Wei always felt that something was wrong in his heart. In the end, Li Wei decided to stabilize his position for the time being, and waited until the infantry in the rear completely launched firepower.

Anyway, from the current point of view, the firepower of the Russians cannot pose a lethal threat to the combat vehicle, and the 100 meters in front is a minefield, and it is definitely not a wise choice to go in blatantly, even if a barrel minesweeper is installed in front of some vehicles, it is still not foolproof, Li Wei is very aware of the advantages of his side, that is, firepower, and when the infantry assumes mortars and machine guns, he is already invincible.

According to the predetermined tactics, the tank units stayed at 300 meters to finish, and the infantry doors began to be arranged on the basis of the tanks. But that's when things suddenly changed! There was a sudden crisp sound from the side of the woods, and several chariots responsible for covering the flanks were instantly smashed into burning iron boxes by shells. The originally tight formation was suddenly punched out of a gap. WHEN THE HEAVY ARMORED VEHICLES OF THE MIDDLE SQUAD WERE ABOUT TO TURN THE 37MM GUNS, ANOTHER ROUND OF SHELLS CAME AND TWO HEAVY ARMORED VEHICLES WERE DESTROYED. The gap in the entire flank has become even bigger!

To make matters worse, the firepower of the Russian army, which had been suppressed, suddenly increased again as if resurrected, and mortars and machine guns opened fire one after another, attacking the infantry from the gap. And after the rapid shooting, the cavalry rushing out of the woods rushed towards the gap like a gray torrent, trying to cut the entire attack formation! It's a trap that has been plotting for a long time! Let the opponent get close first, and then open the gap with flat-fire guns at close range, and then use mortars and mortars to cover the cavalry infantry to launch a counter-charge against the Chinese Army At this time, if the distance is very close, even if the Chinese Army has enough machine guns, it will not be able to give full play to its firepower, and once it is close, grenades and bayonets will be sharper weapons than machine guns! The firepower inferiority of the Russians will be compensated, and neither machine guns on the front line nor mortars in the rear of the Chinese Army will come in handy!

However, Li Wei's rich experience saved his troops at the last moment, when the infantry fire had been deployed for most of it, and at least there was a relatively stable position, and then Li Wei ordered the remaining light vehicles on the flank to launch a countercharge. And the main forces on the front disengaged from the opposing side head-on, concentrating their fire on the flanks! With two signal flares that signaled an emergency, they rose into the sky, and the light armored vehicles on the flanks, under the cover of infantry machine guns and grenadiers in the rear, rushed to the opposing cavalry without hesitation! The hedge of cavalry and mechanized units has finally begun!

The Russian cavalry rushing from the flank woods was only 700 meters away from the Chinese army, and the speed of the war horse could reach 20 meters per second, in this case, the two sides would meet in just a minute! It was a collision without any fancy words, and after just a few tens of seconds, the cavalry and the chariot were mixed together! (To be continued......)
