Chapter 248: Crossfire

Chen Mo's words with such confidence also made the squad leader quiet. Chen Mo continued: "Squad leader, Dawang Ba is now on this side of the base, you know its speed, and you are relatively close to the central river, so you can reach the D5 position first and see the northernmost bridge?" You'll get stuck under the bridge first, and it doesn't matter if it's lit up, no one can hit you there! You are there and wait for the arrival of the king, and then the two of you will attack the central river together, the king is in front, and you are in the flank and behind! For the two of you, there's absolutely nothing to stop you two from moving forward! ”

After saying this, Chen Mo found through the small map that his Patton had taken the lead in rushing to the high ground on the West Road, and hurriedly said on the radio: "Patton, don't rush too far, the E3/D3 area on the top of the mountain is the area where you are active, don't rush forward, you just need to move and light up in front, don't stay in one place, it will easily attract the attention of the enemy's self-propelled guns!" The number of our medium and light tanks in this game is too small, each of you is very precious, and without your attention, we will not have a good time, so you must pay attention to your own safety! Of course, your first grass can be done from the grass on the edge of the E4 cliff, which is enough to provide you with very good concealment! However, once you are lit, I ask you not to be greedy, and to immediately retreat to the northern slope of the heights of the western road to avoid being covered by enemy artillery! ”

"Roger, I'll take note!" Captain Patton's voice rang over the radio.

Whether it's in space or in a real-life game. The American Ninth-level M46 Patton is a very outstanding medium tank, but in the real world, this tank is actually a tank made by post-war technology.

In World War II, the main medium tank in the armored forces of the Mi Army at that time was the M4 'Sherman' medium tank, in World War II, the Mi Army was equipped with at least 49,000 M4 Shermans, and as a result, in a battle in December 1944, the German army used the famous 'King Tiger' heavy tank, and the M4 Sherman as the main force of the Mi Army was defeated, and the strong defense line was also broken through by the Germans. The M4 Sherman tank, which the Mi army has always been proud of, is vulnerable in front of the German Tiger King! Since then. It was destined that the M4 Sherman would be eliminated, and later, because the Mi Army immediately put the newly developed T26 'Pershing' medium tank into Europe, it was immediately appreciated by the Mi Army stationed in Europe at that time.

But with the end of World War II, in order to fight against the increasingly powerful Red Empire. Facing the powerful armor power of the Red Empire. The Mi Army decided to start developing a new generation of light, medium and heavy tanks. At the same time, improvements were made to the M26 tank, new engines, transmissions and new guns were installed. On July 30, 1948, the improved M26Pershing "Pershing" tank, the M26E2, was renamed the M46 Patton "Patton" tank. In honor of the famous George. General Patton.

However, although this M46 Patton tank was equipped with the first and second armored divisions of the United States Army, and the total number of units produced reached 8,676 units, this tank was only a transitional tank and was soon replaced by the M48 tank.

But in space, this post-war medium tank is a very good medium tank. First of all, the best thing about this tank is its visibility. American cars have always been known for their high visibility, especially medium and light tanks, which are the best in their class.

With Patton's power, before the appearance of the tenth-level mid-tan, Patton's vision was the highest among all tanks, and even now that there is a tenth-level mid-tan, Patton's whiteboard car field of view is as high as 400 meters, and it can still be included in the forefront of all tanks' field of vision. Although the top speed of the Patton on the flat ground is only 48 km/h, which is not outstanding in the same class, the firepower of the Patton tank is more powerful than that of the medium tank in the same class.

On Barton's technology tree, there are a total of five types of artillery that Barton can install, from the fifth-level cannon to the ninth-level cannon, especially the last ninth-level cannon on the technology tree, which can be said to be absolutely top-notch in the same level. The 105mm T5E1M2 tank gun, with a penetration depth of 218mm and a damage rate of 390, is a slightly slower rate of fire of only 6 rounds per minute, but this powerful tank gun, combined with moderate speed, is enough to make Patton a medium tank with terrifying firepower.

If it is in the plains, Barton's various performances will be brought into full play, but in the map of Belogorsk, Barton's role is much smaller, and the terrain restrictions will make Barton, who is not very good at speed, unable to light up the lights in the first place, which greatly limits Barton's high field of vision.

However, Chen Mo skillfully arranged Barton on the West Road Heights, because Barton's birthplace is next to the mountain road of the West Road Heights, and he can climb the West Road Heights in the shortest time, and then use the advantage of height to light the lights on the edge of the cliff, which can give full play to Barton's high vision!

And Barton did not live up to Chen Mo's arrangement, when he commanded his Barton to climb to the highest point of the West Road Highlands as fast as possible, he immediately followed Chen Mo's orders and got into the grass on the edge of the E4 cliff.

Two red dots are in the middle lane, one is the British fifth-level light Tan Crusader, and the other is the Soviet fifth-level mid-tank T-34; At the foot of the southern slope at the bottom of the West Road, three red dots are preparing to climb along the southern slope of the West Road Heights, which are an enemy German Ninth-level mid-tank E-50, a British Ninth-level anti-tank A39 Earth Turtle, and an American-made Ninth-level anti-tank T30.

It can be seen that the enemy's heavy firepower is concentrated on the high ground on the west road, and according to the principle of the same level of tanks on both sides of the house, there are three ninth-level anti-tanks on Chen Mo's side, so the enemy should also have three ninth-level anti-tanks. And Patton's lamp immediately lit up the enemy's two ninth-level anti-tanks!

They all arrived at the ninth-level vehicles, and the enemy ninth-level vehicles must have the skill of 'battlefield intuition', so after Patton lit them up, these enemy tanks invariably stopped and began to look for cover on the southern slope to block the blows of their self-propelled guns. This immediately stunned the enemy tanks that were originally advancing at high speed on the western road, and the rhythm of the battle was immediately disrupted.

In tank combat, lighting is not just about lighting up the enemy's tank, a more clever lighting is like the current Patton, not only lighting you, but also slowing down your offensive or defensive position, that is, directly interrupting your offensive or defensive rhythm! After all, in such a high-class room, once it is lit, it means that it will be attacked by large-caliber self-propelled guns or anti-tank attacks hidden in the shadows. No tank wants to stare at the attack of such large-caliber artillery, so once it is lit, it will generally look for tank cover in the spot to avoid fire from the opponent.

This situation also made Chen Mo happy in his heart, knowing that if he came like this, there was basically no problem with the defense of the West Road, so he continued on the radio: "Patton, don't move, now that you are not lit, you will lie on the grass in that position and light the lamp, unless you are on, you can retreat, otherwise, you can stare at that place for a while!" Your position is a very good eye position, and the presence of your high-vision eye is very beneficial to our breakthrough in the middle! ”

"Roger!" Patton's captain was obviously a man of few words, and he always spoke with a few words.

However, Chen Mo didn't care about this, but while directing the driver to park his SU-152 on the D8 slope on the north slope of the East Road Heights, he began to direct the East Road Heights and the Middle Road reconnaissance vehicles to run.

"Coco, baby, don't rush too far ahead, the two enemy eye cars in front of you have been lit up by our Patton, so what you have to do is to prevent these two enemy eye cars from being detected, you two should be stuck in the central villages and towns, if the enemy's two eye cars don't rush hard, you don't have to worry about them, if they rush hard, the interception will depend on the two of you, of course, I will also support you in the back!"

"Understood, the two guys on the other side can't get by, don't worry!" Coco's voice sounded over the radio, and although they were both lit up at this time, the houses in the central village were natural shelters that allowed them to avoid fire from the opposite side.

Chen Mo didn't care about the middle road anymore, but continued to say on the radio: "AT7, you come to me, just stop on the east side of me in a while, this position can be used to prevent fire, and at the same time, the two of us can also defend the mountain road on the west side of the East Road Heights." Tiger Style, you and the Tiger Hunter go to the mountain road to the east and get stuck in the passage of E9 to prevent the enemies who rush to the top of the mountain from descending the mountain road to the east! Both of you have a relatively high ricochet rate, and the enemy's mobile forces should have gathered on the East Road Heights, and the pressure on the four of us is relatively large, so we will adopt a defensive strategy on our side, as long as we are stuck in position, it is not so easy for the enemy to break through the East Road Heights! ”

"Big ship, when you reach A2, you will aim your guns at our side, and the high ground on the east road needs your fire support! As for the GW Tiger P artillery, your task is to aim at the southern slope of the high ground on the west road, where our Barton continues to light up, and the enemy big guys don't rush hard, and once they rush hard, the section of the road up the mountain is your best coverage! ”

Due to the complex terrain of this map, there are still certain restrictions on artillery, but the two gun emplacements arranged by Chen Mo for his two artillery pieces are all in order to take care of the most critical areas of the east and west highlands.

When he saw that the 704 project that he went to the West Road Highland was about to start going up the mountain, Chen Mo continued: "704, you don't need to climb to the top of the mountain, you just climb to the slope position of C4, and together with me in that position, form a crossfire on the middle road, and at the same time you can also support the East Road Highland!"
