Chu Tingchang felt that this place could be used as a training ground for training troops to attack fortified positions, and his troops had rich experience in field warfare, but they lacked experience in attacking positions, and most of them were roundabout. Today, the enemy here is preparing for defense, but there are no too strong fortifications, which is very suitable for training. He didn't wait for his artillery to arrive, first, time waits for no one, and second, he was also worried that the artillery would damage the materials near the platform, and he had already counted those things in his name, which was why he didn't let the British bomb heavy bombers bomb this place back and forth several times.

The 4 75-mm mountain guns found by the drone were not a problem. The enemy hides them as treasures behind them, limiting the direct range of fire, and there is no threat. However, the battle anti-aircraft guns and 97 tanks hidden in simple rock bodies still need to be careful. The only tank of the 97 tank of the Japanese Army to catch up with the times, with a long-barreled 47-mm gun, using a normal *, could penetrate about 500-50 mm armor at a distance of 70 meters.

At the moment these tanks are well hidden, only the barrels are exposed, apparently what kind of experience the enemy has summed up recently. I'm afraid that I will suffer a loss. However, he will soon have a turning point for approaching the strategy, a reliable offensive line that a group of people on 419 is working on. All he had to do now was stare at the map for a moment and wait for the results.

At this moment, the drone is flying around the enemy's position, using synthetic aperture radar to map the nearby ground terrain for Lin Xiuxuan and others to study the undulating terrain.

The Japanese commander thought that the railway embankment was used to increase the defense, but such a cover somewhat blocked the firing range, mainly the lower firing range, which was originally -5 °, and now there is not much left. 419 uses computers and 3D terrain models to analyze these dead spots that can be used.

Soon the computer obtained a series of offensive routes, which could connect the nearby undulating mounds and dry rivers to form a complete and continuous forward route, and the enemy could not reach them directly at the fire, and they chose a route for Chu Aiyun to use.

At the same time, Qin Xiaosu sat in the listening room analyzing a set of undecipherable ciphercodes, which was the most difficult encrypted communication he had encountered recently. The whole number obtained is a number, which cannot be deciphered at all, and it is obviously not a password generated by an encryption machine, and it is estimated that it is encrypted with some book. This cannot be the unified codebook used by the military, but the single-line contact method used by the Sitting Explorer. He intercepted a similar password once or twice while in Shanghai, both of which were used by the CCP. The content of this encrypted communication is usually a certain word in the number of pages and lines of a book, and if the other party has the same book, the complete information can be obtained. For decipherment, there is almost no solution. He hoped that the drone would take advantage of the circle to measure its position, but the communication soon ended. In his experience, the sender was skilled, but deliberately concealed some of his modus operandi.

Chu Tingchang put his hands behind his back and looked at the map as if he was in a fixed position, and everyone felt that the master seat seemed to be a little poor today, and it was not a hexagram.

He Bisheng was a little anxious, he felt that the tank would solve the problem with one rush, so why worry so much.

"Master, let me take the brothers to the front, but if I can't rush in, I'll come to see you."

Chief Chu suddenly woke up.

"Chong Chong Chong, you know Chong, can't you use your brain?"

"Division, our tank has a charm you drawn, and we are not afraid of Japanese shells."

"Charm ......" Chu Tingchang wanted to scold people, but forcibly held back, because the charm was drawn by him, of course, it can only play a psychological suggestion role,

"Talismans certainly have some mana, but the Japanese are well defended, so don't be negligent. Rushing head-on, there will inevitably be some losses. ”

"Where is there no loss in the war? Besides, I have just taken the brothers to see that the four sides are open, and the crops are not very tall, and there is no other way but to force them forward. Or, let's wait for the artillery to come later? ”

"Hehe, little ghost, I know how to look at the terrain; Come, come, I'll show you the way. ”

Chu Tingchang drew a zigzag route on the map with a pen. He Bisheng blinked and looked at it for a while, then walked outside the hidden department and observed it with a telescope for a while.

"Master, there's a depression there, and a dry riverbed. Not very suitable for tank operations. ”

"No, I just want you to go from here."

"It's much better to go this way than to rush and twist head-on, the tank has the possibility of getting stuck in the mud, it's not easy to play speed, and besides, we can't hide our tank in broad daylight, and the enemy must see it."

"I see it, but I may not be able to hit it." A confident smile appeared at the corner of Chu Tingchang's mouth, "You personally lead the team, pay attention to ensure that your car is lower than the enemy's firing line." ”

"This ......"

"The enemy is hiding in the railway embankment of 1.5 meters, which will be close to the height of the artillery, and I expect that their firing line will only have a depression angle of one or two degrees. And the closer you get, the more you can't fight. ”

"Is that so?" He Bisheng was puzzled, with his current observation, there was indeed a low-lying area, but it did not seem to have a continuous path, and sooner or later it would hit a slope and climb up, and climbing was the most fearful moment for the tanker, because the speed would become very slow, almost forbidden in front of the enemy, and when he climbed the hill, the weakest armor under the chassis would be exposed.

"Teacher's ......"

"Don't ask, the secret of heaven must not be revealed, you just have to go, I will keep you from being hit. Give you an extra platoon of medium tanks, let a battalion follow your tank movements, you touch the edge of the roadbed, don't rush over, there is a ditch here, and at the end of the drain pipe under the roadbed, let the sappers blow up a section of the roadbed with *. ”

"Yes."

At a distance of 1 km, the Japanese army was in high formation, waiting for the enemy to attack.

The scouts saw movement on the enemy's side, and about a company of Stuart tanks and 3 Shermans were maneuvering behind the hill, apparently the enemy was trying to charge with these light tanks. There were infantry behind, looking at hundreds of people.

The Japanese tank squadron leader instructed his gunners not to rush to fire and wait for the enemy to get closer. Also, don't shoot enemies when they're moving sideways, wait until they're rushing over. This is, of course, a matter of experience, and it is impossible for the enemy to give up the thickest armor in front of the hull, so it is inevitable that at some point they will collectively turn and press over, and at this time, let them understand the power of special ammunition. The commander continued to remind that special shells can only be used when the enemy is close to within 500 meters.

A secondary benefit of conquering Burma was that the Japanese had enough rare metals to make new ones*. In the past, the Japanese army only tried to produce such expensive ammunition, and was not willing to use it at all, and now even two rounds are allocated to each vehicle. For the army, this number of equipment is already a luxury, of course, the problem is that these ammunition are the same as the muzzle velocity of ordinary ammunition, but the trajectory is somewhat different at long distances, the fall is slower, and it seems to "float up", so it can only give up long-range shooting, and the difference can be ignored if it is put closer to 500 meters. Of course, at this distance, there should be no Allied tank that can withstand such shells.

The gunners excitedly waited for the enemy to spin around like headless flies in the potholed and undulating wilderness, the barrels of which followed the looming top machine guns and antennas, waiting for the moment when they climbed up to pick up the most vulnerable moment. On the whole, the enemy seems to be a layman in command, and if he chooses a route that cannot exert his speed and firepower, there is no reason to be invincible.

He Bisheng stood outside the turret and observed with a telescope from time to time, and it was easy to determine that he was below the enemy's muzzle, as long as he could not see the enemy's muzzle. He gradually realized that Chu Shizuo was simply an immortal guiding the way, and every time his first car encountered a dead end, it would turn around and there would be a new downhill that could be drilled through. Sure enough, as he said, the enemy could see him, and he could not hit him.

The Japanese army over there are in a hurry. Their strategy is so clever, but it seems that something is wrong. A few times the enemy was seen climbing upwards, and the turret was already in the scope, but it was just a scale or two off, and they went down again, but the enemy was getting closer and closer, and the branches used for camouflage on the turret of the enemy tank could be clearly seen. How could they possibly find such a vile route to approach in a roughly flat wilderness?

The defensive guns on the roadbed were a little overwhelmed, and the gunners tried to push the guns a few feet forward to increase the gun depression angle. In the distance, the Chinese army watched carefully, and was spotted at the slightest movement.

Captain Sherman had already seen that the enemy was secretly moving the artillery, and with a shot over, he suffered a little bit of wind deviation, and half of the artillery squad that was pushing the anti-aircraft gun was eliminated, and the wheel of the gun was knocked off, so that the gun was skewed on the roadbed, and the gunner corrected it a little, and fired another shot, which blew the gun into pieces.

This artillery knocked on the mountain, and the enemy on the defensive line did not dare to move, so he could only hide behind and use grenadiers and mortars to blindly suppress it, which posed no threat to the tanks, and only caused very small casualties to the infantry following behind. Mortars of the 200 division also fired suppressive fire on the enemy.

As if in a dream, the tank circled around and entered an area of 200 meters from the enemy's defensive line, and the enemy could no longer shrink his head to hide, and forced himself to climb the roadbed to counterattack and prevent the infantry from entering the bombing distance. The 200th Division fired with all its direct-aim weapons and quickly suppressed the rising enemy. Sherman's 76mm cannon is the invincible master of this battlefield, and no one can challenge it with any firepower. The fierce confrontation lasted for several minutes, and the Japanese machine guns were all silent, and they could only retreat to the second line of defense, which was temporarily dug behind the roadbed.

The infantry of the 200th Division rushed to the front of the tank, quickly approached the roadbed, and began to throw * to the rear, of course, just to cover the sappers quietly approaching, found the drainage ditch under the roadbed pointed by Chu Tingchang, and began to fill in the *.

The Japanese sensed that the situation was not good, and the infantry constantly tried to rush over, but they were all blocked by tank and machine-gun fire. The drone can see that the enemy infantry is in a mess.

With a loud bang, a section of roadbed about ten meters long was blown open, and the three Sherman tanks here were already prepared and fired together*, which for a while howled the ghosts and wolves that were hiding behind the enemy, and at the same time formed a large area of dazzling smoke. Commander Chu ordered the Sherman Company to shoot extendedly to distract the enemy.

The enemy's infantry was not coordinated, and the Japanese tankers were already dazed and completely confused about the enemy's intentions. Even if they had suffered the defeat of Chu Tingchang, they had never learned that his troops could still act with such precision. The engineering and tank units coordinated seamlessly.

A platoon of tanks rushed through the gap, and when they broke through the white fog, they found themselves behind all the enemy tanks. They immediately launched a fire, firing Japanese tanks from the rear. At such a distance, it was easy to aim directly behind the turret of a Japanese tank, and to enter from this direction could kill at least one of the commander and gunner. The infantry took the opportunity to rush to the roadbed and set up machine guns to strafe the enemy in a chaotic group.
