The southern area of Beiyuan City is now almost becoming a testing ground for the Tang Army's new weapons.
After the Tang Army invested a new type of rocket launcher here and conducted several rounds of experimental salvos, it also invested in the No. 4 assault gun during the attack to cover the infantry and launched the attack.
It was also the first time for the Mirage Army to see this new type of "tank" without a turret, low and very useful.
It is not unreasonable for them to classify this armored vehicle as a tank. After all, this weapon is very similar to a tank and is more effective against fixed targets.
After all, the No. 4 assault gun does not have a turret, and its appearance is really too low, which allows it to avoid most attacks on the battlefield. At the same time, it can use its low appearance to calmly approach the target and then fire.
This new weapon that covers infantry attacks is really easy to use, and it is a weapon directly assigned to infantry commanders. It can be put into use at any time without waiting, and its immediate effectiveness is also very high.
As long as the infantry is hindered in the attack, they will immediately appear on the battlefield, and then use 75mm cannons to easily destroy those blocking fire points.
Don't think that the 75mm caliber infantry gun is not very powerful for solid fortifications. In fact, this kind of infantry gun is quite powerful and can destroy many types of targets.
Don't think that all defenses are three-meter-thick reinforced concrete permanent defenses. Firepower points or forts of this level placed on the Maginot Line are also important firepower support points.
For most fortifications, if half a meter of concrete can be piled on the front, it is already a very good firepower point.
It is not easy for a 75mm caliber artillery to deal with such firepower points under direct fire conditions.
Because it is protected by armor and can easily cross obstacles with tracks, the No. 4 assault gun can completely penetrate very close to the fire point and solve the problem with one shot.
Without assault guns, soldiers would either have to wait for tanks to arrive, or they would have to try their best to destroy such targets by blasting them.
Alternatively, you can risk your life by pushing the 75 mm caliber infantry artillery to close range and fire, but this method is too clumsy. Only in desperate situations will a commander issue such an order.
When the Mirage soldiers who saw the No. 4 assault gun for the first time discovered that this headless tank could easily hide behind any reverse slope on the battlefield and fire at them and pour ammunition, they felt that their lives were getting worse.
Not having a good time.
How should I put it, suddenly they have a sad feeling that they were not very wealthy in their childhood, but now they are even worse off.
There is really no way. The No. 4 assault gun is only about 2 meters high. It can carry a radio station, a machine gun and a cannon, as well as armored steel plates dozens of millimeters thick, and drive to 50 meters in front of the Mirage's machine gun bunker. This
How can we fight a war?
As a result, the information about this brand-new tank was immediately sent to Mirage Saburo, who was very worried. At the same time, the news was also known to Cyric's advisors.
Now in Beiyuan City, in an inconspicuous private house, Cyric's advisers also have a variety of Tang army weapons and equipment in front of them, which is a dazzling array.
There is a huge cylindrical shell with only part of it left on the table. This is the fragment left after the Tang Army rocket launcher shell exploded.
This brand-new rocket artillery shell has never appeared on the battlefield before, because the remaining fragments even have a tail fin that is only half left.
For Cyric consultants, this thing is definitely very new, because it represents the birth of a new ammunition concept.
Next to the wreckage of the rocket, there was an aerial bomb. It was a dumb bomb, a 50-kilogram bomb.
This is a small aerial bomb dropped from a Flying Fortress bomber. It was originally used to bomb the defense positions of the Mirage. Due to its quality, it did not explode after landing and was completely preserved.
Next to the aerial bomb was a destroyed MG-42 general machine gun. It was captured during a counterattack. The Mirage Army's artillery shells happened to hit near the machine gun position. Two Tang Army shooters were killed, and it only
Half of it is left.
However, the soldiers of the Mirage Kingdom still picked it up and sent it to the consultants of the Cyric Consortium. In addition, there were also the helmets and parachutes lost by the Tang Army paratroopers in the Battle of Donghe Bridge.
These things were originally discarded to the west of Donghe Bridge. They were picked up by Qi soldiers near the royal city after the Tang Army paratroopers retreated to Donghe Bridge.
However, because of the temptation of gold coins, they found a way to sneak around the Donghe Bridge and brought these things to the east bank of the Donghe Bridge controlled by the second prince.
At that time, the number of paratroopers of the Tang Army was insufficient and they could only guard the Donghe Bridge. They had no experience in dealing with the small number of Qi troops who crossed the river.
"Load it on a ship and transport it to the Mirage Kingdom as soon as possible, and then transfer it to the Ice Empire." A Cyric advisor looked at the remains of these weapons and said weakly.
The Tang army invested so many new weapons in this war that Cyric's advisers began to feel numb.
The war concepts of both sides seemed to have begun to differ. The armored units, paratroopers, and air units brought out by the Tang Army were all things that Cyric had never thought of.
"What on earth are these Datang Group engineers thinking about?" Another Cyric consultant couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he thought, and mumbled angrily.
They were originally actively imitating the No. 4 tanks produced by the Datang Group in the Ice Empire, trying to use similar tanks to resist the impact of the Tang Army's No. 4 tanks.
But it turns out that Tang Jun has started to play with some messy things that they have never seen before. Even the machine gun and Tang Jun's MG-42 cloth tearing machine are much better than the Maxim that Cyric imitated.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "It's called being one step ahead, leading everywhere!" The leader of the Cyric consultants said depressedly: "Remember our time? Cyric's flintlock gun first
After the birth, the muskets produced by other workshops were all obsolete... We back then... also..."
Ten years ago, Cyric's status was definitely better than today's Datang Group. Their current passivity, from a long-term perspective, is just a simple explanation of the changing tides.
Originally, the Tang Army was equipped with a large number of Mauser rifles, but now that they have reorganized a new tactical system around machine guns and tanks, the power of their automatic weapons has been highlighted.
With the cover of tanks and new headless tanks, the infantry of the Tang Army can easily approach the enemy's trenches and immediately take advantage of the firepower of submachine guns. Why fight with bayonets? Why should soldiers use submachine guns to solve problems?
To fight with a bayonet?
Cyric's advisers did not know yet that the Tang Army had begun to equip its troops with more powerful assault rifles to replace the submachine guns that other countries had not yet installed on a large scale.
"However, if you think about it carefully, can you think that the Tang Kingdom has been overwhelmed?" Another Cyric adviser put forward his own opinion: "The new tank they produced without a turret...could it be
Because their resources were in short supply and they had to simplify production to come up with this weird thing?"
At this moment, Cyric's advisers have not yet figured out that the No. 4 assault gun belongs to the infantry, so some misjudgments are inevitable.
Upon hearing what he said, a door to a new world seemed to open in front of several Cyric advisers: Yes, why is the Tang Army equipped with two weapons and equipment with similar functions?
Cyric's advisers, who have no foresight, still classify tanks as "attack vehicles" at this moment, so in their view, tanks and assault guns perform the same type of mission.
It's just that the technicians of the Datang Group have been influenced by Tang Mo and have positioned the tank as a combination of "tank destroyer" and "attack vehicle".
There is a difference in the positioning of tanks between the two, and it is obvious that Datang Group's positioning is more accurate, so the emergence of the No. 4 assault gun is beyond the understanding of Cyric's technical staff.
There is nothing you can do about it, because assault guns are indeed just a product of the times. In the future, the combat mission of this weapon will be divided between infantry fighting vehicles and tanks, and disappear in the long river of history.
"What you said makes sense! Are they saving costs?" After opening his mind, Cyric's consultant began to speculate.
"That should be the case. Otherwise, wouldn't it be more appropriate to equip the troops with the same tanks?" Someone nearby agreed.
"Then shall we send a telegram back? And then inform the Mirage side of the news?" Excited voices began to appear, which encouraged everyone.
"Yes! Not only the people in Mirage Kingdom should know about it, but also the Great China Empire, the Ice Empire, the Lions Empire and the Dorne Empire should know about it!" Another person clapped his hands together, as if he had discovered the truth.
appearance.
In their view, the Tang Dynasty, which had almost run out of oil and lamps, and was at the end of its rope, was like a broken house. As long as someone came and kicked it, this broken house would collapse.
"Without further delay! Hurry! Send a message back to the headquarters immediately! Let Lady Sophia send this message!" the leader of the consultant said quickly.
He knew that whether it was what he had guessed or not, the news would eventually be sent out - because everyone needed a reason, a reason to target and suppress the Tang State.
As long as they release this good news, some people will naturally choose to believe it and join the war against the Tang Dynasty.
It's like a shark smelling blood.
