Seeing the PLA's fewer and fewer combat vehicles on the battlefield, Major General Frick, the commander of the Third Mechanized Infantry Division, who was approaching the frontier command, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Four hours passed, and the ZTZ-99S Tank Battalion and Type 05 Infantry Fighter Armored Battalion of the 86th Aircraft Infantry Brigade were finally destroyed, although the anti-tank missile battalion of the 86th Aircraft Infantry Brigade and the remaining dozen Destroyer UAVs have caused considerable damage to the US offensive operations.

But now all this has finally been accepted. All the anti-armored forces of the 86th Brigade of the PLA that can stop the US military from advancing, from tank battalions to tank battalions, attack helicopters and land aerial battalions, and even off-road vehicle-mounted anti-tank missile battalions, have been destroyed. In addition to the Red Arrow-8M Anti-tank Missile Attack Team carried by a small number of infantrymen, there is basically no special force that can stop the US military's attack.

However, Major General Flick was not happy at all, because in order to do this, an armored brigade and an aircraft brigade that were invested in the attack on the North Line were basically half-dead. The main force of its armored power, the four M1A2SEP tank battalions with a total of 232 vehicles, now 110 left, and 2 140 M2 Bradley Tank Battalions, and only 80 left, can continue to fight. The rest were either completely destroyed or smoked, and they had lost their ability to continue to fight.

It can be said that when this battle ended like this, Major General Frick was already crying and tears. But now is not the time for him to be sad. Thinking of the annihilated troops on the Western Front, the remaining two remaining armed infantry brigades of the Tanzanians were coming quickly, and it was estimated that it would take an hour to arrive. Therefore, Major General Frick must completely annihilate the People's Liberation Army before this unit arrives. Now, in front of the US North Line, there are only a last line of defense composed of more than 1,000 People's Liberation Army infantry and less than 10,000 Tanzanian infantry.

Although the Tanzans built some simple circular fortifications and bunkers, such defense lines were not a problem for Major General Frick's armored forces. Firepower such as machine guns and bazooka pose no threat to the M1A2SEP tanks. Even the US military's M3 crawler armored reconnaissance vehicle could gallop across the board. After losing the armored power of the 86th PLA Air Force Infantry Brigade, the remaining PLA and Tanzanian infantry were just targets.

Thinking of this, Major General Flick ordered the remaining troops to speed up the offensive. Not only the M1A2SEP tanks and M2 Bradley tanks survived by the forwards, but the three M109A6 155mm self-propelled howitzer battalions and M-LRS multi-barrel rocket launchers companies about 20 kilometers behind also assaulted forward under the cover of armored infantry. After the forward armored forces gained an advantage, it was time to dispatch artillery troops to strike the People's Liberation Army and Tanzanian infantry defense lines.

In the sky, more than ten remaining longbow Apache armed helicopters of the US military also followed over the artillery battalion to protect them. For infantry with a large number of attacks, a 155mm self-propelled howitzer is more powerful than five M1A2SEP tanks, and a 155mm howitzer's killing radius is by no means comparable to the main tank gun. The M-LRS multi-barrel rocket launcher company has a volley that can completely destroy the living forces within 1 square kilometer, and is also the natural nemesis of the infantry.

Therefore, at the last moment, Major General Flick not only deployed two armored infantry battalions around the heavy artillery battalion for protection, but also allowed the Longbow Apache armed helicopter to join this protection sequence to ensure that everything was foolproof, because in the following battle, it was the turn of artillery to show its power.

"Brig Commander, it is now the last moment. I request that the thunder combat plan be implemented immediately," Deputy Brigade Commander Dai Qiliang, the commander of the Babati Front of the People's Liberation Army, asked Colonel Song Jihong of the Duoduo Massachusetts Joint Command in a hoarse voice. No one expected that the PLA would have spare means to not use it yet.

"Agree to implement the Thunder Plan," Colonel Song Jihong looked at the few green dots left by the PLA in the combat command system on the large curtain wall. This means that thousands of soldiers under him have lost their lives forever. Although there is indescribable pain in his heart, the battle is not over yet. He still has to fight. "Pay attention to the M-LRS multi-rocket launcher and 155mm self-propelled howitzer that attacks the US heavy artillery units first, and then the armored forces. The Tanzanian temporary aircraft brigade led by Zheng Quan will be able to arrive at the battlefield in about 40 minutes. You must withstand, and victory will definitely belong to us!"

"Please rest assured to ensure that the task is completed!" Although Dai Qiliang's voice was not loud, it almost roared with his chest, full of strength. After hanging up the call with Colonel Song Jihong, Dai Qiliang immediately connected another caller, "Capital Commander Wang? I, Dai Qiliang, order to try the Thunder combat plan immediately! The artillery battalion immediately undisguised and cover the firepower according to the shooting target elements provided by the combat command center!"

"Yes! The artillery battalion understands and implements the Thunder Operation Plan immediately." In a Tanzanian barracks that looked quite simple 20 kilometers away from the frontier position, the PLZ-05 155mm self-propelled howitzer battalion of the 86th Aircraft Infantry Brigade of the People's Liberation Army was nervously pulling out the camouflaged lightweight aluminum alloy plates, revealing the tracked 155mm PLZ-05 self-propelled howitzer inside.

Inside, the gunman was setting the shooting parameters according to the digital attack targets from the command center. In less than 3 minutes, all 40 155mm self-propelled howitzers in the entire artillery battalion completed the shooting preparations. With the order of Battalion Wang, the hidden heavy artillery position immediately made a shocking sound. 40 heavy artillery shells roared and rushed towards the marching queue of the US M-LRS multi-barrel rocket launcher company 30 kilometers away.

The first batch of long-range full-chamber grenades fired by the PLZ-05 type 155mm self-propelled howitzer, with a maximum range of up to 50 kilometers, can completely cover the US heavy artillery marching queue. When the driver's armored command vehicle approached the frontier command, Major General Frick heard a sharp roar flying over his head, and his face changed. He was a senior general who was flew step by step. He was a little focused and he knew what this roar meant when he heard it. However, in the pre-war information, it did not indicate that the Tanzanian army or the People's Liberation Army had such 155mm heavy artillery!

Damn the intelligence personnel! Major General Frick cursing the mistakes of the reconnaissance intelligence personnel, while urgently ordering Changbow Apache to immediately strike the sudden heavy artillery base of the People's Liberation Army or Tanzanian Army. The artillery radar technicians who followed Major Frick to advance quickly positioned the location of the heavy artillery base. The US anti-artillery radar positioning system is very mature, and soon feedback this result to the armed helicopters in the sky and the US artillery battalion.

Unfortunately, it was too late at this time. In a few dozen seconds, 40 heavy shells almost covered the US M-LRS multi-barrel rocket launcher company's march queue. Five of the 9 M-LRS multi-barrel rocket launchers were directly hit and turned into parts flying around. Four of them were overturned by the huge shock waves emitted by the explosion of the grenades landing nearby. The driver and rocket launcher inside were shocked to death on the spot.

The remaining US M109A6 155mm self-propelled howitzer battalion sadly discovered that the heavy artillery base of the People's Liberation Army and Tanzanian coalition was more than 30 kilometers away from them. Judging from the range of the M109A6 155mm self-propelled howitzer, they could not reach it at all!

Therefore, the US M109A6 155mm self-propelled howitzer battalion can only maneuver and avoid it until the longbow Apache helicopter destroys the heavy artillery base of the People's Liberation Army and Tanzanian coalition.

More than ten seconds later, the second round of strikes arrived as scheduled. Relying on the real-time data provided by the Winglong Unmanned Reconnaissance aircraft in the sky and the various parameters of heavy artillery firing obtained by the intelligent analysis of the PLA's theater joint combat system, the attack efficiency of the heavy artillery base of the 86th Aircraft Infantry Brigade was astonishingly high, almost reaching the maximum theoretical rate of artillery fire of 8 rounds per minute of the PLZ-05 155mm self-propelled howitzer. Therefore, in more than a minute, when more than 400 heavy artillery shells landed near the US heavy artillery marching queue that had not yet been dispersed, the US heavy artillery troops were quickly reimbursed.

Immediately afterwards, the PLA's heavy artillery began to attack the tanks and infantry fighting vehicles at the forefront of the US military. However, the US armored forces, which had a few minutes of buffering time, had completed the dispersed tactical actions, which greatly reduced the attack efficiency of the PLA's heavy artillery. For US tanks and infantry fighting vehicles that were performing tactical maneuvers in a random manner, the PLA's heavy artillery had to form a huge strike circle in a combination of 6 to 8 gates to effectively cover the US tanks and infantry fighting vehicles in the strike circle. In this way, if you are lucky enough to hit them directly, the infantry fighting vehicles will be directly reimbursed when they hit the side. Even a big guy with thick armor like the M1A2SEP tank, the members inside will not be able to withstand the huge grenade explosion shock wave and are shocked to death.

Therefore, when the US longbow Apache rushed over, the PLA's heavy artillery troops had already launched a base of ammunition, which once again severely damaged nearly 100 US tanks and battlefields. When the US longbow Apache, under the entanglement of the PLA's infantry FN-6 air defense missiles, finally destroyed the PLZ-05 155mm self-propelled howitzers one by one, and paid the 8 longbow Apache's battle damage price and more than half an hour later, Zheng Quan's reinforcements rushed to the battlefield.

In the final decisive battle, all the remaining soldiers who were red-eyed and used both sides to lose both sides, causing the final battle to fall into an extremely tragic situation from the beginning. However, the US military, which had lost its air combat capability, had the remaining armor strength stronger than the Tanzanian tentative aircraft brigade commanded by Zheng Quan, but it was not better than the theater joint combat system developed by Duke. At dusk, the entire army was finally destroyed, and even Major General Frick died in the decisive battle with Zheng Quan's chariot!

Kneeling on the battlefield where the smoke had not yet dissipated, facing the smoke-filled tanks and tank wreckage on the ground, Dai Qiliang felt that the setting sun set west was as red as blood!
Chapter completed!
