Chapter 173 Blitzkrieg

I don't have time to hold you captive!

Put down your weapons and get off the road so you don't get in the way!

The engine of the tank is the same as the main gun, both are weapons [Large Depth Breakthrough]

Anger makes people feel thirsty, and armored soldiers should never stop when attacking!

The defense of a tank is also offensive!————Heinz Wilhelm Guderian

The Type 92 light tank is a small tank independently developed by Japan. To be more precise, it can only be regarded as a heavy armored vehicle, because it weighs only 3.5 tons, which is equivalent to a pickup truck loaded with cargo.

This tank was designed and developed by Ishikawajima Automobile Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and was officially equipped with the Japanese army in 1932. What Shen Dongjing and the others encountered was this Type 92 light tank.

The main weapon is a Type 92 13mm machine gun on the turret, and the auxiliary weapon is a Type 91 6.5mm machine gun on the side armor turret.

There were all kinds of debris scattered on the ground. The Japanese Type 92 heavy armored vehicle was advancing forward. A low earth wall was pushed down by the tracks and crushed. At the same time, the machine gun on the turret continued to spit out tongues of fire. Several Hainan Army soldiers were crushed by the rain of bullets. I couldn't lift my head.

The few machine guns that were available immediately diverted firepower after the Japanese armored vehicles appeared. However, the hail of bullets could not stop the armored vehicles from advancing at all, and the bullets that hit the armor of the armored vehicles were bounced away.

Behind the armored vehicles were dozens of Japanese soldiers, who slowly approached the airborne troops' line under the cover of the armored vehicles.

Fortunately, the turret of this "defective" tank is not loaded with a tank gun, and the bullets of the machine gun cannot penetrate the low wall. Otherwise, if it is hit by a tank gun, with the current simple defenses of the airborne troops, basically no one can survive. possible.

"Sir!" At this moment, Shen Dongjing and several soldiers were hiding behind a small shabby house. A paratrooper asked anxiously with a frightened face: "There are three Japanese tanks, what should I do? They are about to rush in!"

Shen Dongjing straightened his helmet with his hands and shouted loudly: "I will deal with them, you cover me!"

Several soldiers were a little surprised at first, but after seeing something that Shen Dongjing escaped from, they understood his plan.

However, because they were at the back of a small dilapidated house, not only did the field of vision here be narrow, but the "Iron Fist" rocket launcher could only penetrate the protection of Japanese armored vehicles within a hundred meters, so Shen Dongjing had to get close to the Japanese armored vehicles first.

"Yes, sir!" Several soldiers nodded in response. Only one sergeant shouted: "Fire with all your strength! Throw grenades!"

Boom! Boom! A series of grenades exploded, and the smoke from the explosion blurred the vision in front of the array. Shen Dongjing took this opportunity and ran out instantly with the rocket launcher in his arms.

"Ta...ta...ta...!" The Japanese tank seemed to be completely irritated, and the machine gun fired at Shen Dongjing crazily. He could even feel the bullets following closely behind his butt.

"Bang!" Shen Dongjing rushed in with both men and guns.

In the trench, the moment he fell into the trench, bullets followed him and rained down on the edge of the trench.

Shaking his slightly dizzy head, Shen Dongjing leaned against the wall of the trench and breathed heavily. Just that moment almost exhausted all his energy.

Ignoring the sore shoulder from being hit, Shen Dongjing risked his waist and walked a few meters along the trench. This position happened to be at the ten o'clock direction of the left wing of the Japanese armored vehicle. Soon, the weak armor appeared in front of Shen Dongjing.

When the paratroopers not far away saw that Shen Dongjing was ready, they fired at the Japanese armored vehicles to attract fire. The turret, tracks, and frontal armor were rattling.

Seeing the opportunity, Shen Dongjing exposed half of his body from the trench, and the long rocket launcher on his shoulder was already aimed at the side armor of the Japanese armored vehicle.

"Hi~!" There was a sharp whistling sound, and the rocket swept out a cyclone in mid-air, and then hit the armored vehicle.

With a loud bang, the Type 92 armored vehicle burst into flames, and even the top cover of the turret was blown away more than ten meters away.

The armored vehicle was damaged, and dozens of Japanese soldiers who lost cover rushed up screaming, but were all knocked down by the airborne troops with a hail of bullets.

After destroying an armored vehicle, Shen Dongjing quickly put away the rocket launcher, turned around and ran back without thinking. If you are too showy on the battlefield, it means that the chance of being "taken care of" by the enemy is higher.

Sure enough, as soon as he ran a distance of three or four meters, there was an explosion behind him, and then a huge air flow violently hit his back. He didn't know anything about what happened after that. He only remembered that he seemed to hear something before his consciousness fell into darkness. to the shouts of his comrades.

——————————[War-torn dividing line]——————————

On the front line of the Maoshan position, the tank brigade, the vanguard of the Hainan Army, had already exchanged fire with the blocking Japanese troops here.

"boom!"

I saw a flame coming out of the muzzle of a Hainan Army assault gun, and a 79mm cannon shell fell into the Japanese position. The Japanese fortress was directly penetrated by the tank gun, tearing the Japanese soldiers inside to pieces.

This time, the tank brigade was the vanguard of the assault. In order to maintain the maximum intensity of the attack, the headquarters not only had air force fighter planes attacking in the sky, but also a group of assault guns as artillery support.

The assault gun is an armored combat vehicle active in World War II. It was originally developed by the German army and was later followed by other countries.

The assault gun looks similar to a tank but has no turret, a relatively low body and a limited firing angle. Unlike various artillery guns with limited mobility, the mobility of the assault gun is favored by Li Weidong.

[Tank combat is still a bit far away for Xiao Yi. For this reason, Xiao Yi recently found a tank game "World of Tanks" and also supplemented his military knowledge on the Internet! 】

Li Weidong had noticed artillery support weapons a long time ago, and even specially built a variety of assault guns and self-propelled artillery. However, before they had time to conduct comparative experiments, they were hastily dispatched for this battle. Li Weidong regarded it as a one-time Practical test.

To deal with such a Japanese fortress, the 79mm-caliber howitzer was completely overkill, and a simple shot would knock one out.

Today was a nightmare for the Japanese commander stationed in Maoshan. Just when he was eating in the morning, he received an alarm call from the outpost. Before he could gather the soldiers, the Hainan Army suddenly attacked him.

A fierce battle broke out instantly, and Hainan Army tanks swarmed forward. The Japanese troops who were caught off guard were beaten and unable to fight back. Hainan Army tanks galloped across the position, and the fortifications built by the Japanese army were crushed into pieces.

Subsequently, soldiers from the Hainan Army's First Field Army rushed in on armed trucks. About one regiment of soldiers jumped out of the crowded Dodge trucks and quickly occupied various key points.

When the battle was coming to an end, the tank brigade immediately turned around and continued heading north, leaving behind one tank that was crawling due to engine failure.

Hainan Island, Hainan Army Headquarters.

"Order the Second Field Army to follow up quickly!" Li Weidong said while looking at the giant simulated sand table.

The rapid and lightning attack of the vanguard tank brigade made it impossible for the follow-up troops to follow, and the connection distance between the First Army and the Second Army was too large. The tank troops in front had already passed through Maoshan, and the infantry troops behind were still marching slowly behind.

Although the armored force's assault caught the Japanese off guard, there were also many shortcomings in the coordination within the Hainan Army.

"We can't force it, the troops still need more time to get used to it!" Chief of General Staff Ge Changming sighed next to Li Weidong. He knew very well that Li Weidong had an almost fanatical interest in blitzkrieg. However, as a young force, the Hainan Army has a large number of tens of thousands of people.

Combat involves more than just the logistics system. Any bottleneck will block the smooth flow of the entire plan.

Even though Li Weidong was a little dissatisfied with this, he also knew that the soldiers at the front had tried their best. In this era, the road conditions in China could not be compared with those in Europe. It was rare and valuable to be able to do this.

Moreover, from the beginning of the war, the Hainan Army's overall plan was affected by the hasty start of the war. There were a large number of recruits in the reorganized Second Field Army, and those who had just come out of the training camp were also the main reason for slowing down the movement of the army.

"General, this is an urgent message just sent back from Maoshan!" At this time, a second lieutenant officer handed a message with an orange mark to Li Weidong.

Hearing this, Li Weidong couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. It stands to reason that the battle in Maoshan has entered the final stage, and there is no reason why any emergency situation will arise.

However, after seeing the contents of the telegram, Li Weidong's face became darker and darker, and the hand holding the telegram trembled slightly. In the end, Li Weidong even exuded wisps of murderous intent.

"Damn it! All the little devils deserve to die! Are they all beasts?" Li Weidong was furious and cursed angrily.

The general content of the message is that when our troops were cleaning the battlefield, they found the bodies of dozens of Chinese women in the Japanese garrison. The Japanese devils used these unfortunate women to satisfy their lust.

The most hateful thing is that the trapped Japanese soldiers finally shot and killed them all. The only one who survived escaped because he was pressed under the corpse, but he was already unconscious after being rescued.

Seeing that Li Weidong was so angry, Ge Changming took the telegram from Li Weidong. After reading the content, his goat-like beard couldn't help but curl up. It seemed that he was also rarely angry.

"How are you going to handle this matter? General!" Chief of General Staff Ge Changming asked after such an outrageous thing happened.

"The Chinese will just lay them down and bury them all," Li Weidong was still very annoyed. As for the Japanese wounded and prisoners, Li Weidong ordered them to be guarded on the spot.

"I will definitely make them pay a hundred times the price!" Li Weidong took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with a cold light that made people dare not look directly.
