Li Jing thought for a while: "Tomorrow we need the cooperation of the infantry, the No. 1 tank destroyer must at least have accompanying infantry, it is obviously unrealistic to rely on our words alone, as long as the infantry can temporarily suppress the enemy's firepower point, we can knock out the enemy one by one, as long as we can go deep into the canyon, gain a firm foothold and expand the depth, and fight steadily, it is only a matter of time before we occupy the canyon." ”

"This matter is left to me to coordinate, it shouldn't be a big problem, but this is still a big risk, and if you are not careful, there may be casualties! In that place, the scope of observation and the scope of action are very limited, and if there is an unexpected situation, no one can say what the battle situation will become, and I hope that nothing will happen at that time. Randall was a little hesitant and resistant to entering the canyon.

Li Jing understood Randall's thoughts, the group of young master soldiers in the squad is still very expensive, and it would be best if they didn't take risks, but there is really no better plan now, the terrain here is complicated, and there are not many favorable conditions: "In this operation, we will carry more HE high-explosive bombs, try to carry out long-range strikes in a wide area, keep as much distance between vehicles as possible, and cover each other in case of emergencies, this mission should not be a big problem, it is just a matter of time." ”

"Although this canyon has been revisited several times by scouts and reconnaissance aircraft, there should still be a lot of enemy fire hidden in the shadows to avoid detection, I plan to go to the field with Captain Monkey tonight to reconnoitre, we have night vision devices, which should come in handy! Finding one more enemy position reduces the risk. Li Jing asked the monkey for advice with his eyes as he spoke.

The monkey raised his hand in agreement: "I have no opinion!" "Night vision devices are all virtual, and the system is where the biggest confidence of the two lies.

Seeing that the two of them had made up their minds, Randall had nothing to say: "Then, take advantage of this opportunity to let the car crews make final preparations, tomorrow will be a tough battle, I will go to the commander of Company B later to talk about the coordinated infantry!" ”

Everyone was busy until midnight, when they could be considered to have made preparations, refueled and replaced shells and other supplies.

At half past eleven o'clock in the evening, the monkey started the tank, and the Type I and C drove out of the makeshift camp and gradually disappeared into the dark night.

"Monkey, you try to go as far as possible for me, the sound of the tank engine can be heard eight hundred miles away, and the situation in the canyon is displayed on the system map, we are mainly to see if there are still enemies hidden around this time, don't be copied by others tomorrow!"

"Oh, I'm familiar with the detour, anyway, this system is really a good thing, you don't need to turn on the lights when driving at night, hehehe! I'll have to try it when I get back, Midnight Ghost ......" the monkey's brain began to desert.

"woooc, you look at the road, in this wilderness, do you see a ditch in front of you? Ditch...... Ditch...... Ditch ......"

“……”

The two of them worked until 3 o'clock in the morning, and finally circled the canyon perimeter, but fortunately they did not find any enemies, and it is estimated that they have already run away, and they are about to return to the temporary camp.

The monkey yawned with his mouth wide open: "Uh...... Let's go back now? ”

"Forget it, let's find a cat in the place for a while, there's no point in going back and waking them all up."

"Okay...... I'm old, I can't stay up late, I used to stay up late and didn't feel sleepy, but now it's only 3 o'clock and I can't stand it......"

Drove the tank into a small wood, and after a while, the snoring of two people could be heard from inside the tank.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, when all the tank teams were waiting at the mouth of the canyon, the soldiers in charge of reconnaissance in front came back and reported the investigation to Li Jing: "Report to the chief, after our preliminary investigation, there are no obstacles and mines at the entrance of the canyon. ”

"Is this the door left open?" Li Jing, whose upper body was sticking out of the turret, touched his chin, a little like talking to himself.

"Maybe you're retreating and don't have time to prepare for these?" The monkey was the first to make his judgment.

"No, judging by the way they retreated yesterday, the enemy had enough time to strengthen the defenses in the canyon, it was still simple to set up obstacles and lay mines, how could they not do it? There must be a problem! Li Jing still felt that it was wrong.

"Is it the reason not to hinder their own vehicles? After all, they have to leave themselves, so it will work! Randall, who commanded the tank to stop on the right, also leaned out of the tank turret with his upper body and said when he heard the words.

"Don't think so much, wouldn't it be better to have no obstacles and mines? This is more convenient for us. Li Xiaolei then said, although he always felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't think of what the problem was, now that he was here, there was no point in thinking more.

At breakfast, Li Jing gathered everyone together and gave a detailed introduction to the distribution of enemies in the canyon, and on the basis of the original reconnaissance, several new places where the enemy was hidden were added, which made everyone admire.

Li Jing knew that there was no point in discussing it again, so he had to bite the bullet and take a look, and then gave an order: "Okay, it's useless to talk more, according to the plan discussed before, Randall's command tank stays in place, this time I will act with 3 other destroyers, this operation is mainly safe, everyone don't rush in, follow the command, and finally prepare in 5 minutes!" ”

In this way, Type I C took the lead, and the infantry detachment followed behind the tank squad to cover them into the gorge.

"All units will enter the canyon according to the plan, and the specific matters will be under my command."

With the roar of the tank engine, the exhaust pipe at the rear of the car spewed cyan smoke, and the tank team slowly moved forward.

"See two protruding rocks at 8 o'clock? About 900 meters, in the middle is an enemy position, HE high-explosive bombs, gather fire to kill them! As soon as he turned a corner in the canyon, his front suddenly opened up, and Li Jing then gave an order.

The three No. 1 tank destroyers had just turned out of a stone cliff, and then slowly adjusted the direction of their firing in the same place, and there was a faint agitation on the enemy's position, probably because they also found that the guns of the destroyers seemed to be aiming at themselves.

Then the Makqin heavy machine gun on the enemy's position fired, fortunately, the distance was still far away, the power of the bullet was not enough to penetrate the front armor of the tank, the bullet clanged on the tank, Li Jing held the vehicle-mounted MG34 machine gun to suppress the enemy position, but the effect was not great, too far.

The accompanying infantry had already sought cover while the Maxim heavy machine gun was fired, and after a while, an MG34 general-purpose machine gun was erected at the corner of the cliff and joined the operation to suppress the enemy's fire.
