"Order the tank troops to replenish ammunition quickly. After replenishing ammunition, immediately launch an attack on the enemy!"
Li Yunlong gave the order with a stern expression.
In fact, when the artillery fire has just stopped and the Japanese are stunned by the bombing, it is the best time for the tank troops to press forward immediately.
However, the tank unit had just participated in the artillery bombardment. At this time, the tank guns had been burned out, and a wave of ammunition had to be replenished first.
But it's not a big problem. Once the smoke clears, the new group of tank soldiers will have a better view.
"yes!"
Wang Dehou turned and left.
The logistics troops had already transported the artillery shells to the tank.
As soon as the sound of gunfire stopped, each tank team immediately prepared artillery shells.
Fifteen minutes later, all tanks preparing to attack were fully supplied with ammunition.
As for breakfast, all the soldiers had a hearty meal of meat buns, sweet steamed buns, and vegetables.
The enemy's breakfast consists of 1,000-ton artillery shells and 100-ton aerial bombs.
"attack!"
At the heavy tank battalion headquarters, Sun Desheng issued the order.
Now Sun Desheng is the deputy commander and is in charge of the 200 tanks of the New Regiment. According to the regulations of the New Regiment, Sun Desheng cannot drive the tanks on the battlefield himself.
In terms of the number of tanks, Sun Desheng is at least at the level of a division commander.
Although his heavy tank battalion was not as good as the Japanese tank division in terms of number of tanks and strength.
But in terms of combat effectiveness, even if the three tank divisions of the Japanese Army are deployed together, they are no match for the new heavy tank battalion.
Following Sun Desheng's order.
With the crashing sound of tank tracks, 200 tanks rushed towards the area where the Japanese were located in company units.
Behind each tank were about 20 infantrymen armed with Type 56 semi-automatic rifles, Type 56 submachine guns, and flamethrowers.
Each soldier has a bulging bag on his waist, full of bullets and grenades, and follows the tank closely.
The iron rolling tactic is different from the three-three system tactic.
The three-by-three tactics are mainly offensive warfare, with the primary goal of seizing the enemy's position, and the formation needs to be dispersed.
The iron rolling tactic is to surround the enemy in a certain area with the goal of annihilating the enemy.
Although the artillery fire and aerial bombs of the new regiment were extremely powerful, it was impossible to kill all the Japanese in the encirclement.
At this time, tank soldiers and infantry are needed to go up and harvest the corn.
Amidst the continuous artillery fire and smoke from aircraft bombs, the Japanese were immediately stunned, and they only just came back to their senses.
Seeing the tanks of the Eighth Route Army rushing over, the Japanese who were lucky enough to survive quickly regained their strong character and rushed forward with their 38 rifles.
"Da da da--"
"Boom boom boom——"
What greeted the Japanese was a barrage of 12.7mm machine gun shells and 75mm high-explosive artillery shells.
In terms of fighting will, the Japs are indeed the first echelon.
Facing the tanks that seemed to be in an uninhabited land, the Japanese jumped out of the crater with bayonets and explosives strapped to them, and counterattacked against the artillery fire and hail of machine gun bullets, but were beaten to pieces in an instant.
But it's useless.
The tank troops rolled back and forth like iron rollers in the encirclement. In just one morning, they cleared out 40,000 Japanese soldiers in the encirclement.
