“The air is filled with tension, the war is coming;
Tears streaked down the mother's face, the motherland was behind her;
The footsteps of enemy troops were heard in the distance, and the earth trembled;
It's time to defend justice, the blood is already surging;
The last leaves on the dry branches were knocked off by the cold wind;
Lightning tore through the load-bearing black curtain in the distance. Look, it is the armored troops advancing. We are brave and we are invincible!!"
The Hainan Army tank was advancing, and the tank march came from the radio station inside the vehicle. Li Weidong shamelessly plagiarized the famous German march from World War II. However, after the translation was slightly modified, it was also heard by the soldiers of the entire armored brigade.
The blood boils.
The Hainan Army Armored Brigade is one of the earliest units of the Hainan Army to complete the mechanization change. The soldiers are all selected after thousands of selections. Even the continuous expansion has not lowered the threshold. Li Weidong, who they followed, suppressed bandits and also
After fighting against the French, even the Japanese army had to change positions many times. Therefore, the proportion of elite veterans accounted for the vast majority, which also made the tank brigade the trump card in the Hainan Army sequence.
"Charge, crush, and tear into pieces!" The words that the instructors had emphasized repeatedly came to the minds of the soldiers. The tank does not need to "beat around the bush". It only needs to do one thing, move forward, move forward, until it crushes the enemy and finally tears it apart.
Crush the enemy.
At this time, the charging third battalion had already collided head-on with the Japanese position. The armor thickness of the Hainan Army tank was different from the Japanese Type 92 "Dou Ding Tank", the Japanese 38 rifle, and the bullets of the crooked machine gun.
The hits on the fifty millimeter-thick armor left no trace at all, and they all bounced away.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Hainan Army tank guns began to fire, and shells exploded in the crowd of Japanese soldiers. With the explosion, Japanese defense fortifications were destroyed one after another.
The explosion was accompanied by bursts of fire, and a ball of deformed artillery debris burned in the fire. Originally, the Japanese army had two 75mm infantry guns, but they were destroyed by tank guns before they could take effect. On the battlefield
There was a pungent smell of gunpowder smoke and the vomiting smell of burnt human flesh.
On a machine gun position, several Japanese soldiers worked together to move out a large-caliber machine gun. The Japanese machine gunner frantically thought about shooting these "steel monsters", but the bullets hit the tank armor, and after a jingle that had no effect
, failed to achieve any results, the pace of Hainan Army tanks was still unstoppable, and the tanks continued to crush them, causing some Japanese soldiers to fall into fear and despair.
The charging tanks rushed into the Japanese defense line. Amidst a harsh friction sound, the muddy tracks rolled over the iron wire without resistance. The secondary weapon machine guns on both sides of the tank opened fire. The hail of bullets tore apart some Japanese soldiers who could not escape. At the same time,
It also destroyed the confidence of Japanese soldiers.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
As a last resort, in order to prevent the morale of his subordinates from collapsing, the Japanese frontline commander took the risk and ordered the artillery hidden in the rear to fire back. The screaming shells fell from the sky and covered the Hainan Army tank troops. Soon, several Hainan Army tanks were hit by
Destroyed by artillery hit.
Seeing that their artillery was effective, the Japanese infantry cheered loudly and happily, thankful that they finally had weapons that could threaten these "steel monsters".
However, the excitement of the Japanese army was only short-lived. The Japanese artillery troops fired rashly and exposed their position to the Hainan Army. You must know that the Hainan Army was not only tanks, but also a large number of self-propelled artillery behind them.
As expected, the Hainan Army's artillery fired after correction. The Japanese artillery position was quickly located. The Hainan Army's large-caliber artillery was like hungry wolves. The screaming shells covered the Japanese position. Under the command of the Japanese army,
With a pale look on his face, the officer destroyed the cannons one after another and blew them up into the sky.
At the same time, under the fierce shelling, the barrage began to extend inward, and many Japanese artillery pieces that were still fighting back were blown up, killing many Japanese artillerymen. More than 300 tanks also followed the barrage.
Catch those missed fish one by one!
In less than twenty minutes, the Japanese artillery unit that had just emerged failed to fire completely. It was either completely wiped out by the Hainan Army artillery, or knocked down by the Hainan Army tanks as it rushed forward. Even the one or two remaining guns were affected.
The outcome of the battle was uncertain. Once the Japanese artillery fire stopped, the only threat to the armored division was eliminated.
The tanks ran over the Japanese trenches, and the trenches, which were less than two meters wide, could not block the advance route of the Hainan Army tanks.
They found a machine gun position, and the Japanese soldiers inside were still firing tenaciously to fight back. Soon, a Hainan Army tank increased its power and ran over it. There was only a sound like crushing a watermelon, and there was only a sound under the blood-stained tracks.
What remains is an indistinguishable mass of meat.
The horrific scene seemed to frighten many Japanese soldiers. Several little devils ran out of the fortifications that could not give them a sense of security. Panic spread as the Hainan Army advanced step by step. Many Japanese officers could no longer stop the soldiers from running in fear.
Emotions can only retreat with the tide.
Of course, there is definitely no shortage of extremists in the Japanese army. They adhere to the spirit of Bushido that they consider glorious, and rush forward with grenades in hand, while shouting "Bancai! Bancai!"
But their final result was that they were either hit by machine guns on the spot, beaten into sieves after a burst of tearing of tarpaulin, or blown into pieces by artillery shells.
Facing the tanks owned by the Hainan Army, it is useless to throw grenades directly. The Hainan Army tanks are not on the same level as the Japanese "Doutin Tanks". It is impossible to blow up the Hainan Army tanks simply by relying on grenades.
Maybe some grenades hit the weak points of the tank and cause some damage to the tank, but compared with the casualties paid, it is just a unnecessary sacrifice.
If a tank is broken, it is still a tank. Even if the tracks of the tank are damaged, a stopped tank will be transformed into a bunker. After emergency repairs, it can still continue to fight.
With tanks in front and armored personnel carriers in the rear, the Hainan Army's tank brigade formed a "V"-shaped assault formation, tearing apart the two lines of Japanese defense one after another.
"Xiucai! How do you feel about our tank? Does it feel like Zhao Zilong killing seven in and seven out?" Next to a crawling tank, the commander asked a soldier wearing glasses beside him.
The young man he asked did not answer. It looked like he was on the battlefield for the first time. He was bending over and supporting him while he was vomiting continuously. He was almost vomiting even with jaundice.
There's a saying that goes like this: Vomit...vomit...you'll get used to it.
And it can be seen from his appearance that he is not a real soldier. He does not carry a weapon, but a strange machine. His every move does not have the aura of a real soldier.
To be precise, he was still a student, a trainee at Hainan Film Academy, and his name was Jiang Xiaobo. Because the military government was planning to compile a season of propaganda films about the Anti-Japanese War, and some real shots needed evidence, so he set off with the troops.
As the war correspondent who guided them said: "It's not that your photography isn't good enough, it's that you're not close enough." So for the sake of the mission, he almost put his life and death aside.
However, when Jiang Xiaobo resisted the cameras and rushed to the front line in a tank, he was surprised that the battlefield, which originally felt like a hail of bullets and extremely dangerous, actually made him feel like a real-time performance.
The Japanese army with trenches was completely suppressed by the tanks rushing up and could not organize effective resistance at all. Although the Japanese army fired a few shots from the muzzle, it really worried him for a while, but then he saw his own artillery fire blowing up the opponent.
, he couldn't imagine whether he could survive under such bombardment.
In the end, the tank he was riding in broke down, and the commander complained a few words. There were almost no people to beat the drowned dog. And their tank was not damaged by the Japanese army, but because the engine suddenly failed and stalled, and this was also
This was the first time Jiang Xiaobo had the opportunity to see the battlefield so close.
However, looking at his current appearance, you can tell that the result is not as good as he imagined. There are corpses everywhere. Some corpses were flattened by the tracks and their original shapes cannot be seen. The ground is stained red with blood, and the broken limbs and intestines are missing.
They can be seen everywhere, making people feel sick and want to vomit.
When he finally saw the corpse of a Japanese soldier with his head crushed, white tofu-like sperm was splashed everywhere, and Jiang Xiaobo couldn't help but vomited it out.
This is the battlefield, and this is the cruelty of the battlefield. The cruelty of war in the modern firearms era is no less than that of ancient cold weapon battles. At least at that time, there were no weapons that could kill dozens of people at once.
When the Hainan Army's tank troops rushed into the heart of the Japanese army's center, the Japanese army's command system was completely in chaos, and the will of some Japanese troops had collapsed. Those "steel monsters" were simply not something that their flesh and blood could stop.
However, it is undeniable that the tenacity of Japanese soldiers is very high. There are still many Japanese soldiers hiding in trenches and resisting in bunkers, waiting to rush out at any time to attack the armored personnel carriers behind the tanks.
And this did cause some trouble for the Hainan Army. In the end, the tank gunners who lost their patience used tank guns to blast aside places where Japanese stragglers might be hiding, and this was the only way to curb this phenomenon.
Later, as the infantrymen in the armored personnel carriers joined the battle, the Hainan Army soldiers who rushed into the trenches began to clear out the Japanese soldiers hiding in every corner of the south.
"Bang!" It was different from the clear gunshot of a rifle. It was a deeper gunshot, a bit like a country gun used for hunting.
That was a newly equipped trench warfare weapon in the Hainan Army infantry - a shotgun. This was not the first time that shotguns were equipped with troops. As early as the North Vietnam War, Li Weidong had already equipped the infantry with a batch of shotguns.
.
However, the use of shotguns at that time was not yet mature, and only a few troops had such weapons, unlike now where they are almost universal in all infantry units.
