Chapter 23 Code of Action:**(2)
This sudden round of mortar fire caused the Japanese army to suddenly lose their formation. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoBefore Genji Yamagi could give orders to the troops, the first offensive echelon in the traverser's base set off.
The door of the base was opened in the direction of the east, and the Japanese army set up an offensive position in the north, and Yamachi Motoji did not immediately discover the convoy leaving the base.
The first echelon attacked the Japanese battlefield in an in-line column, and the M1A2 main battle tank driven by Zhao Yi was at the front of the line, followed by other infantry vehicles.
The ground near the base, which has been carefully treated by the "props team", can be described as a lack of grass. Both of these days were crisp sunny days and the ground was dry. When the M1A2 turned from east to north, the driver stepped on the accelerator, and the 1,500-horsepower gas turbine engine roared loudly, and the steel monster rushed towards the Japanese battlefield.
The galloping tanks kicked up a cloud of dust on the dry ground, and the surroundings of the Little Prince 1 were covered in a cloud of yellow smoke, in which the following infantry vehicles were buried.
Looking over from Genji Yamachi, he only saw the M1A2 main battle tank at the front. The Japanese were obscured by the tall size of the M1A2 and the smoke and dust it kicked up.
Although the Japanese artillery was under heavy shelling, there were still clear-headed officers who ordered the soldiers to turn their guns and prepare to shell the tanks.
The Japanese army is actually not as unbearable as it is in the drama, and it is not the kind of fool who falls and falls again and again in the same pit.
Yesterday, Koike Shunichi's troops suffered heavy losses after being bombarded by the machine guns of the M2 Bradley Infantry Tank while hiding in the pine forest.
The Japanese immediately studied the situation, and according to the description of the soldiers who had escaped, the staff officers thought that the strange car should be attached to the outside with iron armor. Of course, according to their calculations, the additional iron armor will not be too thick.
The staff officers calculated the power of the most advanced four-stroke internal combustion engine of the time, and the car with a machine gun should have been given too thick armor. They thought that the armor was too thick, and the weight of the whole car was too heavy, and the engine could not move the car.
The Japanese artillery showed a high level of military literacy at this time, and the mortar shelling continued at this time. But the artillerymen braved the fire and turned the muzzles of the guns according to the orders of the officers.
However, they soon found out that things were not as the staff officers of the division headquarters had said. The staff officers said that the strange car was bulky, moved slowly, and would be a target for them. Their reasoning was that the car itself was heavy, and the addition of iron armor would increase the weight of the car, and the strange wheels tied with iron chains were also to reduce the pressure of the wheels on the ground, so that the body would not be too heavy and sink into the dirt road. All this means that the car can't go fast.
However, the artillerymen wanted to shout at this time: Staff officers, we promise not to kill you when you come out.
It's said to be bulky, it's slow, where is the target? The Japanese artillery desperately braved the artillery fire to aim, but they couldn't aim at the galloping tank, and the hundreds of kilograms of mountain artillery field guns were not RPG rocket launchers, how could they aim at a tank with full horsepower?
The artillerymen found that it was not only this that the staff officers had pitted them, and soon the target that they had said was good, but the subject-predicate dropped. They are targets, and they are firing.
The galloping M1A2 did not slow down, and the turret turned to the Japanese artillery positions. Equipped with an advanced gun sight stabilization system, the M1A2 can aim and fire without stopping.
"Lock on to the target, fire." Zhao Yi shouted.
"Fire." Li Yang shouted, and the tank's 120-mm smoothbore main gun fired at the Japanese artillerymen who were turning the gun mount.
This latest M1A2 main battle tank is equipped with an independent thermal imager for the commander, and when Zhao Yi uses this thermal imager to search and lock on the target, the thermal imager of the gun commander Li Yang can receive the target information synchronously. When Commander Zhao Yi ordered him to fire, he was able to quickly make a shooting move.
Immediately after that, the 25-mm guns of the M2 Bradley infantry tank behind the Little Prince I also fired. Although it is shrouded in smoke and dust raised by the M1A2 in front, the advanced red exterior sighting system can target through this dirt smoke.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, the 25mm cannon fired continuously, and the M2 infantry fighting vehicle obviously harvested more heads than the Little Prince 1.
Strings of high-explosive grenades for anti-infantry were fired, and none of the Japanese artillerymen who had been turning the gun mount in a hurry before could stand.
"Incredible, incredible, this is faster than a train, their artillery is too powerful." Motoharu Yamagi saw the massacre of Japanese artillery by the first echelon in the telescope. This time, he realized that the second vehicle behind it was the same vehicle that attacked Shunichi Koike yesterday.
Koike Shunichi is not lying, nor is it due to mental stress that caused him to hallucinate. There really is a cannon that can fire cannonballs continuously, and oh my God, its tiny barrel is comparable to the scythe of death. It was really the point of the gun, and the severed arms and stumps flew sideways, and no one was spared.
It was said that it was so fast, and the first echelon did not slow down and opened fire while rushing towards the Japanese position. Soon they came to a place more than 600 meters in front of the Japanese artillery position.
At this time, Li Sifeng, who was in the air as the FACForward AirController, "Forward Aviation Control Officer"), shouted loudly in Channel One; “Dangerclose!”
Dangerclose. When friendly troops come within 600 meters of our heavy fire, the FAC will alert its artillery to avoid accidentally injuring friendly troops in the fire.
This is a very practical military term, as a commander should be well aware of the range of Dangerclose, 600 meters is the NATO standard. If the distance between you and the enemy is less than this number, as a commander, you call for artillery support, and the fire controller will not bird you. In the HOB masterpiece "Killing Generation", there is a commander of the 2B US military reconnaissance company who called for artillery support at a range of less than 600 meters, and the fire controller finally gave him helicopter gunship support. His soldiers complained.
One more thing, the Dangerclose of our PLA in the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam was significantly lower than 600 meters, and it was really braving artillery fire to move forward.
Having received instructions from the FAC, two mortars stopped shelling. And the convoy of the first echelon was inserted into the Japanese army like a hot knife cutting butter, and drove quickly towards the rear of the Japanese army.
The Japanese soldiers who had no time to dodge, and even the military horses, were hit head-on by the M1A2 main battle tank, and the infantry chariot convoy quickly followed along the bloody road crushed by the Little Prince No. 1.
Japanese soldiers near the convoy bravely shot at the convoy with rifles. Obviously, the staff officers had miscalculated again. The armor of the infantry was not as thin as they had calculated, and the 11mm round-tipped rifle bullets of the Murata Type 13 rifle had no effect on the armor except for the clanging of the armor.
The first echelon did not stop, and did not return fire on the soldiers who shot them, but just rushed towards the rear of the Japanese army.
"What are they doing here?" Motoharu Yamagi expressed puzzlement at the actions of the first echelon.
It's clear that they have the upper hand, so why don't they continue to attack us? Mountain Genji was confused again. If he had lived for a few more decades, he would have had the good fortune to hear that there was a general named Guderian in Germany, who also used such tactics to sweep across the European continent. It's just that whether Genji Mountain can survive today really depends on luck.
"Could it be that the scene under the city of Pyongyang is going to be repeated again?" Yasumi Oji actually has such optimistic thoughts at such a time.
Speaking of the scene where the Great Temple Yasujun mentioned the city of Pyongyang, we have to talk about Ye Zhichao, the famous Jia Wu coward.
In September 1894, the Japanese First Army attacked the Korean city of Pyongyang. More than 15,000 defenders of the Qing army defended the city under the leadership of Ye Zhichao, and the Japanese siege force was more than 16,000 people. The two sides were similar in numbers, and the Qing army defended the city and occupied favorable terrain, with sufficient ammunition and advanced weapons than the Japanese army.
Ye Zhichao led his team to escape at night when he had the advantage of fighting during the day, because he did not inform his allies, and caused a serious stampede. The Qing army suffered more casualties due to the stampede than in battle. The Japanese troops who captured Pyongyang themselves felt that they had won in vain.
In this battle, the Qing army lost a large number of materials and weapons, and lost a large number of well-trained soldiers. If the Battle of the Yellow Sea was the turning point of the entire First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle, then the Battle of Pyongyang was the turning point of the entire First Sino-Japanese Land Battle. From then on, the Japanese army completely occupied the initiative in land warfare.
Having tasted the unexpected sweetness in North Korea, Oji Yasujun had the idea of pie in the sky again under such an unfavorable war situation.
"No, no, the cavalry who fought this army yesterday had a very high opinion of them. There will be no such thing as Pyongyang again. "Genji Sanchi is starting to recover from his state of confusion.
Looking at the Japanese position, which had been shattered by the onslaught of the first echelon, Motoharu Yamagi seemed to smell danger.
Soon, Motoji Yamachi knew that his instincts were not wrong this time. There was another convoy of convoys pouring out of the base on the opposite side.
"They want to surround us, quickly organize men to resist the convoy rushing behind!" Genji Yamachi loudly issued an order to the adjutant.
Motoji Yamachi finally knew why the convoy in front of him was rushing to his rear regardless of it. They are going to surround us from front to back, and they can't let them succeed.
Now the mountain Genji plans to break the wrist of the strong man, sacrifice some soldiers, and organize a defensive line to resist the attack of the second echelon. And the rest of the troops passed through the cracks in the first echelon of the battle workshop, after all, they only had a few vehicles. He planned that the Japanese army would rush over together, and he would always be able to run away most of them.
Now Genji Mountain loses all his artillery, and rifle attacks are completely useless against these vehicles. He could only find a way to retreat and preserve his living strength as much as possible. In the future, I am trying to figure out how to deal with these terrible chariots.
Zhao Yi led the first echelon all the way to the preset blocking battlefield, a section of the road that was sandwiched by two small mounds.
The infantry on the infantry began to dismount and lay down the blocking position with the help of the chariot. Pieces of folding steel were opened, erected, and a firing bunker was completed. An infantry chariot is a point of fire support.
Zhao Yi and Hu Dazhuang both had a special turret, and the machine gun shield on the turret was in a sealed circle, and the Japanese army's 11mm round-tipped rifle bullets could not hurt them at all. They could increase their firepower with these two machine guns.
"Hmph, hum, I'll let you know in a while, the action code: Popping Ju is not called for nothing." Zhao Yi thought in pieces.
