Chapter 15: Chaotic War
"Boom, boom, boom......" Finally, the muzzle of the old Japanese tank emitted bursts of fire, and after unremitting efforts, the tank finally rushed into the firing range. The forward positions of the American troops were immediately bombed, and although the positions of the American troops were very strong, no matter how strong the fortress was, it could not withstand the simultaneous bombardment of thousands of tanks. For a time, the smoke of gunfire was everywhere, the US defense line was shattered, and the entire position was filled with a choking smoke of gunpowder and a pungent smell of blood.
The US commander looked cold, then picked up the walkie-talkie in his hand and shouted loudly: "Black Hawk, Black Hawk, I am a rhinoceros, I am a rhinoceros, I need air fire support, I need air fire support." ”
A reply immediately came from the walkie-talkie: "Black Hawk understands, Black Hawk understands, in 5 minutes the helicopter will enter the battlefield to strike at it in the air, please get ready, over." ”
At the rear of the camp, dozens of helicopters started at the same time, roaring into the air, and quickly swept in the direction of the battlefield. Before the target appeared in the field of vision, the air-to-ground missile on board had already been launched, dragging the flames and smashing into the Japanese army's military formation.
The equipment of the Japanese army was really too old, and it lacked the necessary means to intercept the new missiles of the US military, and they were a little stunned for a while. The main target of this air attack by the US army was the main battle tanks of the Japanese army, which was the thing that posed the greatest threat to the US front. The tanks were blown into scrap in the firelight, and the turret was violently blown by a huge explosion, and then the calm was restored, but the tank with the main fuel tank was shattered was immediately completely ignited.
Amid a deafening explosion, the US military's helicopter group slowly appeared in the field of vision of the Japanese people, but when the helicopters first appeared, at least dozens of anti-aircraft missiles in the Japanese army's military formation rushed towards the US helicopter group with the flames in tow. "Boom, boom, boom and ......", like fireworks in the sky, just one shot, at least a dozen helicopters burst into a ball of fire in the air, disintegrating into parts in the air. Looking at the appearance of the anti-aircraft missile of the Japanese country, it is obvious that it is the Hawker missile interception system made in the United States that has been obsolete, and this Japanese people are too shameless, this is not to show that they are using other people's guns to poke other people's birds.
One of the main reasons why the missile technology of the Japanese countries is still relatively backward is that they do not have their own satellites, and now there are only two countries in the world that have satellites, Huaxia and the United States. However, it is impossible for either of these two countries to lease their satellites to our country, not even their suzerain. Therefore, the Japanese have improved the missile targeting system, from the original satellite guidance to the current optical targeting, that is, only if they see the opponent's target with the naked eye, then they can aim, manually lock, and then launch and intercept.
The helicopter group of the US military obviously did not expect that the Japanese had so many air defense missiles, and after panicking, they hurriedly turned around and withdrew from the battlefield after dropping dozens of air-to-ground missiles in a hurry.
As a result, the US commanders, who had lost air superiority, had no choice but to mobilize their armored forces to be on standby and engage in contact battles at any time. After the Japanese soldiers saw that the US helicopter was beaten away by themselves, their morale was boosted, and although it could not be compared with the momentum at the beginning, it finally swept away the sluggish and decadent attitude just now.
After reorganizing the army, the commander of the Japanese army again ordered the soldiers of the Japanese army to charge forward, and so far, in just a few minutes of attack, the Japanese army has lost more than one-third of its manpower, and if the road of retreat had not been blocked by the American troops, with their fighting qualities, they would have begun to flee long ago. As for the US troops, under the baptism of Japanese artillery, the most serious damage was the infrastructure of the defense line, as well as the artillery arrays at the front, and as for the casualties of the US soldiers, they were not particularly serious, after all, the air-raid shelters used by the US troops to defend against shelling were not dug out for fun.
Just as the Japanese army rushed to a position about 5 kilometers in front of the American army, it saw that the results of the battle were already within reach, but at this time, an accident happened. An American tank unit penetrated from the flank, and hundreds of tanks followed the direction of the Japanese army's movement in a synchronized movement, and at the same time carried their guns to the Japanese army formation.
The Japanese tanks immediately returned fire, but the Japanese armored soldiers almost lost their eyes when they were not hit, and their tank shells hit the American tanks. Only those special armor-piercing shells will pose a threat to the tanks of the US army, but those special armor-piercing shells are extremely high-tech, and they cannot be made at all with the current military industry level of the Japanese country. In addition to a batch of old American models of armor-piercing shells purchased during the civilization period, there is also a small batch of armor-piercing shells purchased from Huaxia that they have eliminated. However, whether it is American or Chinese, the quantity is very scarce, and on average, one tank is only one or two at most.
After seeing that the Japanese tanks did not pose a threat to them, the US tanks began to be a little unscrupulous, and they did not even evade them, and attacked them in the face of the shelling of the Japanese tanks, and one by one the tanks were lifted off in a huge explosion, and then stopped in place with billowing black smoke and remained motionless. Although the commander of the Japanese army is a little timid and a relational household, he can sit in this position, and in any case, there is still a little bit of real material in his stomach.
Seeing this, he immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted loudly in Chinese: "All attention, change armor-piercing shells, two rounds of shooting." ”
The number of tanks of the Japanese army is more than 1,000, and the number of tanks that have been shelled before, the air raids and the number that have just been killed by the opponent's tanks are only more than 400, and the number of the remaining more than 600 tanks still has a great advantage, and the number is at least twice that of the American army. With the order of the Japanese commander, 600 tanks were replaced with armor-piercing shells at the same time, only to see a dazzling fire erupting from the muzzle, and at least more than 80 American tanks were blown up in this round of shelling. The armored troops of the American army were too light on the enemy, and when they saw that the ordinary shells of the Japanese army did no harm to themselves, their tanks stretched out in a long line, and such a formation could bring huge damage to the Japanese army, but they also became a live target.
