"Squeak"

"Squeak"

The tracks crushed the frozen ground like stones, and the rolled up snow and dirt were thrown out of the air.

Bayan watched the tank run over his trench, a two-meter-wide trench, and the guy drove over at once.

The black smoke that came out had a strange smell and smelled a little disgusting, but it didn't prevent Bayan from sniffing it vigorously.

When the French saw the tank, they turned around and ran away without saying a word.

It was only in the legends that they had heard of this black smoke steel monster. When you actually see the tank, the psychological defense line immediately collapses.

This is not something that man can overcome!

Rushing to the front of the tanks, they were all loaded with 25-mm rapid-fire guns.

The shells fired from the rapid-fire guns were thrown like whips into the middle of the fleeing French.

Those who run away will not look backwards, and Bayan will directly break people into pieces when he sees that the cannonballs hit people.

The power of the 25-mm rapid-fire gun was too great, this thing was originally intended for air defense, the charge was very sufficient, and the trajectory was almost straight within a thousand meters.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The French had no choice but to bombard these terrible steel monsters with mortars.

It's a pity that shrapnel from mortar shells "clanged" on tanks. But it can only gnaw off the paint on the tank, and cannot cause any damage to the tank itself.

Hugjiril saw a mortar shell hit the tank turret and was directly ejected.

The muzzle velocity of the mortar was too low to cause damage to the tank, even though this was the original type of tank of the Ming Dynasty.

But armor is not something that mortars can penetrate.

When the tank ran over him, Hugjiril lay directly on the ground.

This roaring steel monster made him feel weak in his legs.

Although he is not afraid of death.

Those who were afraid of death on the battlefield died, and it is a joke to say that Hughjiri was afraid of death.

Can...... Feeling the tremor that was so close at hand, Hugejirile felt his heart pop out.

After feeling the sound of bullets hitting the tank ping-pong, Makqin's shooter immediately abandoned Makqin and joined the fleeing army.

Leclerc stood on the small high ground and watched as the French army retreated like a tidal wave.

Just half an hour ago, he felt he was on the verge of a decisive breakthrough.

The swamps of Svetloyal were no longer a position to defend against the French. He will take the army and go around behind the Ming army to attack.

Countless Ming armies will collapse under his attack. Finally, surrender to him on your knees.

But the appearance of the tank shattered his dream like a soap bubble.

The tanks of the Ming army were so fierce that the French army could not deal with them with any weapons. This thing is invulnerable, but it can kill and injure a lot of people.

There was another ghostly howl in the sky, it was Stuka.

Soon, black smoke began to bloom in the sky again.

This is the latest American-made 88-mm antiaircraft artillery battalion to be transferred, and it has learned the lesson of the last time, and the antiaircraft artillery battalion is very far apart, and the distance between the guns has reached 200 meters.

Basically, it will not come out again, and the rocket artillery group will kill the entire anti-aircraft artillery battalion with one covering shot.

The ghostly roar one after another, and Stuka frantically attacked the anti-aircraft gun position.

Unfortunately, it didn't work out very well.

Because on the side of each 88-mm anti-aircraft gun, there are three 25-mm twin rapid-fire anti-aircraft guns.

Two Stukas were smashed into a volley!

After the explosion, the parts burst everywhere.

"Anti-aircraft guns, right! Flak. Someone came, pushed the 88-mm anti-aircraft gun over, aimed at the enemy tank and fired flat. ”

Leclerc saw the power of the 88-mm anti-aircraft gun and immediately woke up, who said that anti-aircraft guns can only fight planes?

By this time, it was not impossible for anti-aircraft guns to hit tanks.

The French soldiers were stunned for a moment, hurriedly took out the tall Sharma, and dragged two 88-mm anti-aircraft guns to the bottom of the small high ground.

Ming tanks had already appeared two kilometers away, and blue smoke from the tanks could be seen on small heights.

Leclerc nervously looked at the French soldiers below who were hurriedly adjusting the 88mm anti-aircraft gun!

The 88-mm anti-aircraft gun is designed to deal with flying objects over 6,000 meters.

Since you can hit 6,000 meters by shooting into the sky, you can't hit a target of 2,000 meters on the ground?

Although he was confident in anti-aircraft artillery, he had not really experienced actual combat, and Leclerc was still not sure.

But now, there is no other way but to try.

If the anti-aircraft guns will not work either, then they will have to retreat.

"Boom!" The anti-aircraft artillery finally stabilized the gun, and the gunner skillfully aimed and pushed the bullet to load.

A cannonball flew towards the Ming artillery like a meteor, and in a panic, he actually loaded a tracer bullet with one hand.

Leclerc saw the point of light, and it seemed to be flying very slowly. At least, he can see it clearly with the naked eye.

He was very anxious, he was afraid that the Ming army would also see this shell. Then he easily dodged it, because in Leclerc's opinion, the cannonball was flying too slowly.

"Boom!" The first shot actually hit, and the shell directly tore through the front armor of the tank.

Then the tank began to smoke.

"Bang!" The tank exploded, and the steel turret was blown away.

A tank without a turret burns like a gas stove.

Leclerc swore that it was the first time he had seen such a fierce flame in his forty years of life.

"The ammunition is dead! Ammunition is gone! Leclerc clenched his fists excitedly.

The French troops on the small high ground immediately thundered with joy, and those steel guys were not invulnerable now.

Anti-aircraft guns can hit this thing!

All the French are shouting, crazy shouting. Everyone's mouth is open like a hippopotamus!

The anti-aircraft gunners felt the blood rushing to their heads.

They excitedly began to reload, still tracer bullets. They love to watch the bright spots fly towards the Ming tanks!

"Boom!" Another cannon shot was ejected.

All the French stared at the tracer bullet that flew straight out, and at this moment there was no sound on the entire battlefield, as if time and space stood still.

"Boom!"

Black smoke came out of another Daming tank, and this time there was no explosion.

The Ming tankers inside climbed out and ran to the Ming army position behind.

All the French were immediately excited, and those invincible tanks finally met their opponents.

The tanks of the Ming army emitted black smoke one after another, and many of them were martyred like the first one.

In just 20 minutes, more than a dozen smoking Ming tanks were scattered on the battlefield.

The Ming tanks retreated!

The cheers of the French overshadowed the howling north wind.

Bayan saw the tanks rushing through his position and immediately got into the gun hole.

Stiff fingers want to reach into the stove, it's too cold! It's so cold that you can't listen to it!

The warm flames quickly poured heat energy into his hands, and for the first time in three days, Bayan felt like a human being.

Soon, Li Yuan also came in with a cold wind.

"The tanks are gone, and this time they will definitely be able to drive those French into the Volga." Li Yuan sat down beside Bayan.

"Can we withdraw then?" Bayan's main thought now is to retreat and get a good night's sleep.

In three days, he slept only a few hours on and off.

"It should be!

This is the first cavalry division of Man Ye, known as the strongest soldier in the world. The tanks were invulnerable, and the French were crushed if they were not killed.

Driving those dog-day Frenchmen into the Volga would not have been a problem at all. ”

Li Yuan took out a box of canned beef from his arms and threw it directly to Bayan.

Bayan hurriedly found the screwdriver stuck under the can, opened it, and then put it on the stove with the box.

After only five minutes, the smell of canned meat fills the air.

"Shhhh......h Bayan's mouth was burned urgently.

"Company commander, battalion commander. The tanks are back! "Hugjiril rushed into the anti-artillery hole.

Li Yuan and Bayan glanced at each other, stood up and ran out.

The tanks of the Ming army were very embarrassed, and they rushed towards Li Yuan and Bayan's positions almost at full speed, and those who didn't know thought they were going to attack.

"What's going on! How did you run back. Bayan scratched his head, not knowing what was going on.

"Is it defeated?" Hugejiril's voice was a little small.

"Little bastard, what are you talking about!" Bayan kicked the little crow in the mouth.

"It's not right! It's a lot more than that. Li Yuan put down the binoculars and muttered to himself with some doubts.

"Arrange defenses, the damn can't be withdrawn."

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Man, they were blocked by the French in the Svetloyal swamp and failed to drive the French into the Volga."

Stilwell held the telegram in his hand and looked at Li Xiao with some distraction.

Tank units have always been the killer weapon of the Ming Dynasty, and in the past only bad roads were able to stop them.

Well, now, even the French can withstand the onslaught of tanks.

How can this battle be fought in the future!

"Huh! The French are not stupid! ”

Li Xiao shook his head helplessly, and the telegram glanced at it.

"In one afternoon, twenty-five tanks were destroyed. The losses are indeed devastating!

Man Ye must be so angry that his head is smoking.

But we can't drive the French down the river, and the French can't help us.

In my opinion, the future will basically be a stalemate between the two sides in the Svetloyar marshes.

There's nothing wrong with that, as long as they can't get in, it's a victory for our army.

Now, let's focus on the frontal battlefield.

The second child landed in Sicily, and Napoleon probably couldn't sit still.

He would attack the outlying positions of Tsaritsyn more violently, hoping for a quick end to the war and then returning to defend the French mainland.

In the evening, the outer positions retreated. The troops, gradually withdraw to the city of Tsaritsyn, and let's fight street battles with them.

The war has been going on for more than half a month, and those citizens temporarily recruited by the Russians should also have some combat effectiveness.

It's not a waste of food to stay on the East Coast all the time! ”

Li Xiao seemed to have known for a long time that the French could block Man Ye, and he was not surprised by Man Ye's defeat.

"But ......, how did the French stop Manye, if the Prussians did the same, then our situation would be very dangerous."

Stilwell was still worried, and the failure of the tank made him nervous.

"Anti-aircraft artillery to fight planes is just used to fight tanks.

The muzzle velocity of the anti-aircraft gun was high, and the trajectory was almost flat within two thousand meters. After the installation of high-explosive warheads, is it not accurate to hit tanks?

We don't have much to do now, the battlefield is not flat anymore. Now three-dimensional!

There are planes in the sky and tanks underground.

There is artillery behind the tank!

You are a chess master, an airplane is a horse, a tank is a car, a cannon, and you will always fight cattle across the mountain!

Only by using the carts and horses flexibly can we win this game of chess.

As for how to use it......

Hey! Each according to his ability.

My Chief of the General Staff, I am not well equipped. ”

Li Xiao didn't care about Man Ye's defeat, and continued to look at the map that had been looked at countless times and could almost be memorized.

Stilwell was a little helpless!

The Ming army has always relied on equipment superiority in combat.

You are still an infantryman, and Lao Tzu will use tanks.

You are flying a slow airship in the sky, and Lao Tzu has a fast flying plane here.

It was originally a winning situation, but it was mixed up by a few anti-aircraft guns.

The war had to drag into even more brutal street fighting.

However, whether it is street fighting, the front of the troops has shrunk a lot, and the troops have been freed up a lot.

Badly damaged troops can be withdrawn to the east bank to rest and recuperate, and then put into battle after replenishment.

On the battlefield, it is very dangerous to throw troops of pure recruits into it.

Almost half of these newcomers, who have no battlefield experience, will fall in the first battle.

It's much better to have veterans with you, casualties will drop significantly, and the ability to complete tasks will skyrocket.

Li Xiao still studied the map on his own, ignoring Steven.

Stilwell can only continue to be busy!

Li Xiao received a telegram from Manye, and Napoleon received a telegram from Leclerc.

In one afternoon, Leclerc defeated the Ming tank forces and destroyed twenty-five tanks.

Napoleon almost jumped up with excitement!

For a long time, the enemy's tank troops were his heart disease, but he did not expect to be defeated by Leclerc.

"That means that in the future, we only need to equip ourselves with more large-caliber anti-aircraft guns, and we don't have to worry about the tanks of the Ming army?"

Seeing Leclerc's achievements again, Frion was a little red-eyed.

"That's right!

Immediately send a telegram to Leclerc, who is now a lieutenant general in the French Empire.

Tomorrow, I will personally go and confer the title on him. Napoleon excitedly took the telegram and walked around the underground command post, like a lost mouse.

"Lieutenant General?" Frion's eyes widened, a small colonel officer, in just a few days, he became a lieutenant general on an equal footing with himself?

"Send a telegram to Paris for the massive purchase of this eighty-eight-mm anti-aircraft gun. Imperial Arsenal, to be imitated as soon as possible.

By the way, let people get the tanks of the Ming army back. Let's see if the engineers of the Imperial Arsenal can copy it as well. ”
