Zheng Tianyi, commander of the tank battalion of the 63rd Regiment of the 7th Division, was the first to press the firing button, and he was also the first person to open fire in the entire "Thousand Vehicles Battle".

The body shook slightly, and then the sound of the automatic loader reloading, in the gun commander's scope, the target tank shook violently, and a cloud of smoke rose from the body, Zheng Tianyi fired a tungsten alloy armor-piercing projectile, which directly penetrated the Russian tank.

After Zheng Tianyi fired the shells, other TK-96 tanks also opened fire, and the shells fell around the Russian tanks one after another, some hit the Russian tanks, the T-97 tank weighed ten tons more than the TK-96 tank, and the defense was naturally better, this advantage was finally reflected on the battlefield, and the heavy armor protected many tanks, so that the Russian tanks were not all destroyed.

During this period of time, the Russian tanks on the opposite side have not fired, which makes Zheng Tianyi and other Chinese commanders and fighters very strange, because public information has been saying that the "Vampire Fire Control System" used by the T-97 tank has the strength to hit moving targets at 2000 meters.

The distance was quickly shortened to 1,500 meters, and the Russian army had not yet opened fire, and the fire control system and automatic loader of the TK-96 tank allowed it to fire another shot, and this wave of shells was corrected on the basis of the previous wave of shells, and the hit rate was much higher.

To the bewilderment of all Chinese army commanders and fighters, the Russian army still did not fire at a distance of 1,500 meters. The two sides soon approached 1000 meters, at this time the Russian tank finally fired the first shot, and the shells flew towards the TK-96 tank with a whistling roar, but the Russian shells missed the target very much, and only a few hit the TK-96 tank, destroying a TK-96 tank.

In this 1000-meter contest, China's TK-96 tank fired three shells, while the Russian T-97 tank fired only one shell, and the TK-96 tank won completely, while the Russian T-97 tank obviously has the ability to fire at a distance of 2000 meters, but it has to fire at a distance of 1000 meters, which is incomprehensible.

And after the battle, the fighters who were busy with the next combat mission did not have time to solve the mystery, which puzzled them for many years, and it was not until decades later that historians found the answer in the dusty and cobweb-covered piles of archives.

Originally, the prerequisite for the Russian army's "Vampire Fire Control System" to have a 2,000-meter hit capability under dynamic conditions was the use of the US "SP-3" electrostatic levitation gyroscope and advanced electronic components, but when Russia procured it, the US American Arms Company bribed the Russian military defense minister, the chief of the armament department, and other officials to replace the expensive gyroscopes and electronic components with low-cost substitutes, and the American arms company gave 60 percent of the profits as kickbacks to senior Russian military officials.

The fire control system, which lacks advanced components, cannot complete dynamic shooting at a distance of 2,000 meters, so it can only wait for the distance to be shortened to 1,000 meters before firing. The design indicators of the "Vampire Fire Control System" were originally lower than those of the "HK-1", and important components were stolen and replaced, how can the Russian army be an opponent? So in the first wave of the contest, the Russian army was knocked out dozens of tanks.

After the first wave of shelling, the TK-96 tanks decisively formed a triangular formation in order to concentrate superior forces locally, while the Russian tanks were loosely formed and fought separately, and soon many tanks were hit by the TK-96 tanks and had to withdraw from the battle.

Xiao Yingwu found that the left flank of the Russian army was mostly infantry fighting vehicles during the battle, so he ordered the tank troops to attack the left flank and defeat the left flank of the Russian army, and the tanks of the 7th Division immediately attacked the left flank of the Russian army, and the infantry fighting vehicles behind were given to the Russian tanks, but the infantry fighting vehicles did not fall behind when facing the T-97 tank, because it was equipped with anti-tank missiles and had the ability to kill tanks!

However, the Russian infantry fighting vehicles did not have the ability to confront the TK-96 tanks, and their armor as thin as cicada wings could not stop the TK-96 tank guns at all.

The Russian infantry can only choose to get off the car to fight, TK-96 used the vehicle-mounted parallel machine gun to kill and wound them, the Russian infantry suffered heavy casualties for a while, on the other hand, the Chinese infantry, the combat effect is much better, before the war, Xiao Yingwu found that the Russian tank was not equipped with machine guns to deal with the infantry, so he was relieved and boldly let the infantry fighting vehicle follow the battle, and the infantry used the Dragon Fist anti-tank rocket launcher to kill and injure a large number of Russian tanks.

TK-96 entered the camp of the Russian army, and the Russian army's self-propelled anti-aircraft artillery could not concentrate on attacking the helicopter in the sky, and they had to spare their energy to evade the hunting of the TK-96 tank.

In this battle, the air superiority in the sky was extremely lonely, because the Russian army did not send fixed-wing aircraft to participate in the battle at all, and the air superiority did not have the ability to attack the ground, so he could only watch Wu Zhiji happily shoot the Russian tank in the sky.

The battle lasted more than five hours, and in the evening, the Russian army was routed on all fronts, and the Chinese army attacked Almaty, which was already an empty city at this time, and was soon occupied by the Chinese army, and the senior Russian officials Zhinovsky, Belyakov and others had already fled.

Xiao Yingwu immediately reported to Lin Yuan the news of defeating the Russian tank force and occupying Almaty, Lin Yuan excitedly said three good things in a row, and then ordered Xiao Yingwu not to rush into the army, and to build Almaty into a strong base first.

Xiao Yingwu agreed, and began to purge Almaty, first to count the population, and then to carry out land reform, tax reform, etc., the Kazakhs in Almaty did not resist and were very obedient to the Chinese army.

Since then, the battle of Almaty Thousand Vehicles has ended, in this battle, the Russian army lost more than 1,300 main battle tanks and various types of armored vehicles, while the Chinese army lost less than 100 armored vehicles, and the battle loss ratio of the Russian army and the Chinese army was as high as 13:1! A resounding slap in the face to foreign experts who predicted three TK-96 tanks for one T-97 tank.

The next day, Lin Yuan informed the world of the results of the Battle of Almaty, and the whole world was shocked, no less shocked than the defeat of Iraq by the US army with very few casualties in the Gulf War in the Lin Yuan era.

Lin Yuan deliberately concealed the situation of the helicopter gunship in the war briefing, so all countries in the world were speculating about how China won the victory, Lin Yuan smiled secretly in his heart: "You guys go and guess, I'll see if you can guess our helicopter." ”

The Russian tsar did not say anything about this fiasco, so much so that Lin Yuan wondered if the tsar was overly sad and died suddenly. On February 6, Lin Yuan's attendants suddenly came to report to Lin Yuan: "The envoy of the Russian Tsar has arrived in our city in Siberia and is rushing to Beijing by train. ”

Lin Yuan nodded, thinking in his heart: "I must liberate Moscow this time, no matter what the tsar's envoy says, it's useless!" ”
