A regiment of the Plateau Operations Division had 15 tanks, 30 infantry fighting vehicles, and 360 infantrymen, and Fang Xianyang carefully arranged their formation.

Fang Xianyang already knew that the enemy army had no armored vehicles, and the only threat to armored vehicles was the extremely strong infantry of the Sikhs, and the only way for these infantry to fight armored vehicles was to rush forward with explosives bags in their arms, rush to the front of the tank and detonate the explosives, or blow up the tank's walking system, or blow up the tank's sighting system, making the tank lame and blind.

In order to deal with the enemy's infantry, Fang Xianyang specially formulated a "hedgehog tactic", which is like this, a tank and two infantry fighting vehicles are organized into a group, in this group, the tank walks in the front, the two flanks follow the infantry fighting vehicle, and the twenty-four fighters in the two infantry fighting vehicles all get off the car and surround the two sides of the infantry fighting vehicle.

The task of these twenty-four fighters is to detect the enemy infantry rushing forward as soon as possible, and after discovering it, if it can be solved with rifles, use rifles to solve it, and if the rifles do not work, call on the machine guns and machine gun fire on the infantry fighting vehicles, as for the tank fire infantry does not need to be called, because in this group, the role of the tank is to use powerful artillery and accurate fire control systems to strike at enemy fortifications and fire points.

A combat group is like a hedgehog covered in thorns, no one else wants to get close to it, one group is a "hedgehog", and the other groups are also "hedgehogs"; the fifteen combat groups are separated by 300 meters from each other, covering each other, and as soon as an enemy infantry rushes between the two groups, they will kill and injure them with crossfire.

Under the hedgehog tactics, the entire highland combat division was like a giant hedgehog, slowly rolling towards the Sikh barracks.

As soon as the highland combat division came ashore, the British officer in the Sikh regiment received the news, and he immediately issued an order to the Sikhs: "According to the predetermined plan, attack!" ”

As soon as the order was given, the British took out one explosive bag after another and handed them to the Sikhs, who took them in their hands and hid behind the starting trenches, staring at the tanks of Lin Yuan's troops in the distance, and the corners of their eyes were split.

As soon as the British officer gave the order, the Sikhs rushed out, although their starting trench was far away from the "hedgehog", but the terrain here was flat, and there was nothing sheltered on the ground, so the infantry around the tank found the Sikhs from a distance.

The unit at the forefront was the 549th Regiment of the 61st Plateau Combat Division, the regiment commander was named Zhuo Shiliang, he saw an enemy rushing up and immediately reported to his superiors, and then ordered his subordinates to fire freely, and then the commander of each tank leaned out of the car, holding a 12.7 mm heavy machine gun in his hand, and the commander of the infantry fighting vehicle also aimed the machine gun in front, and the infantry raised their rifles and stared at the front tightly.

Zhuo Shiliang used to be a tank commander who liked to charge into battle, sitting in a ZH-99 armored command vehicle and following the front tank group.

ZH-99 is China's second generation of armored command vehicles, using the chassis of the BZ-99 infantry fighting vehicle, in the era of Lin Yuan, most of the chassis of armored vehicles are universal, such as armored reconnaissance vehicles, armored command vehicles use the chassis of infantry fighting vehicles, constituting a huge car family.

ZH-99 is the latest armored vehicle equipped by the 61st Plateau Combat Division, because the number of armored command vehicles is relatively small, only three or five in a regiment, so Lin Yuan took the lead in changing it to various units.

The ZH-99 armored command vehicle was equipped with a 12.7 mm heavy machine gun, which was the same model as the TK-96 and BZ-99.

The size of the Sikh in the sight is getting bigger and bigger, Zhuo Shiliang uses the ruler in the sight to calculate the distance, six hundred meters, five hundred meters, four hundred meters, Zhuo Shiliang can no longer hold back, his finger moves and pulls the trigger, the heavy machine gun makes a "da-da-da" sound, and the bullet flies towards the Sikh in the distance.

Several Sikhs were immediately knocked to the ground, but the fierce Sikhs did not care about the death of their comrades, and instead accelerated the pace of their charge, charging towards the Chinese armored vehicles.

After Zhuo Shiliang fired, more commanders pulled the trigger, and the sound of "da-da-da" became one, and the muzzle of the gun continued to spray bright yellow fire, and the golden shells flew out of the bomb port, hitting the armor with a "clanging" sound, and the Sikhs in the distance fell down in a hurry.

At this time, the machine gun of the infantry fighting vehicle also sounded, its caliber was 30 mm, and the sound it made was not a crisp "da-da-da", but a heart-pounding "boom-boom", and the machine guns joined the battle group, and the Sikhs fell even more. During the entire firing, the infantry did not fire a single shot, because they were far away from the enemy, and the shots were only fired at Lang.

In the blink of an eye, the more than 200 Sikhs who rushed up were all dead on the spot, and the British officer, of course, did not feel the slightest distress, and he shouted loudly: "A bunch of rubbish! The enemy's firepower is very strong, and rushing towards the front is a dead end, this time from both sides of the roundabout! ”

More Sikhs picked up the explosives bags and ran towards the left and right flanks of the tank group, wanting to detour back to the flank of the tank group to attack, but it was not easy to say, fifteen tank groups, each group was 300 meters apart, the front width of the entire tank phalanx was as high as four kilometers, and it took more than ten minutes to run over the distance of four kilometers, which was enough time for Lin Yuan's troops to inflict destruction on them.

Zhuo Shiliang shouted loudly over the communicator: "The enemy is detouring to the flanks of our army, they are trying to attack us from the flanks, brothers, open fire and intercept them." ”

Lin Yuan's troops opened fire again, and the second group of attacking Sikhs fell again, and only about twenty people fled back to the barracks in a hurry and hid in the trenches.

A British officer approached the Sikhs in a few steps and exclaimed, "How did you cowards escape? ”

A Sikh said helplessly: "We can't attack anymore, the Chinese's firepower is too strong, we have no possibility of approaching at all!" ”

The British officer reached out and took out his pistol, fired three shots at the Sikh, the bullet made three bloody holes in his chest, and the Sikh immediately collapsed in the trench, and the British officer shouted: "Do you see them all?" This is what disobedience ends! ”

The Sikhs are very united, and when they saw the British officers shooting and killing their compatriots, they all showed anger, but the British had carved the sense of obedience on their bones, so no one dared to say anything, and then the British officer pointed forward with his hand and said: "The Chinese are about to receive our big gifts, so you will take advantage of that opportunity to rush out and kill them all!" ”
