These two huge fortress groups effectively blocked the pace of the imperial tank group. They were made by blasting the required space outside the granite, and had 2-meter-thick reinforced concrete structural walls and roofs, and among them, there were 2
A retractable turret and more than 30 support points.
The fortress is equipped with 4 120 mm caliber heavy guns with a range of 5 kilometers, 2 of which can rotate at all angles, 10 76 mm rapid-fire guns, 10 45 mm high-speed anti-tank guns, 10 large-caliber machine guns and a certain number of
Anti-aircraft guns. The fortress has only one necessary land route, and is surrounded by mountains in other directions.
The most outrageous thing is that the front of the fortress is covered with minefields, deep trenches, and a 6-meter-high wall. It is protected by a concrete bunker equipped with machine guns, 10 searchlights placed above the fort, and a 45mm anti-tank gun.
.
A large number of tunnels were built under the fortress, connecting the turret command centers and ammunition depots of individual fortresses. The fortress also had medical rooms and a certain number of quarters for the garrison, and it also had an electric lighting system to provide internal and external lighting for each unit.
These two fortress groups are considered by the polar bears to be the last strong protection, so they are named "Baikal Sacred Fortress". Once the Imperial Army breaks through here, there will be no danger behind them, and the polar bears can only sit back and wait for death.
There are only two such fortress groups in Baikalsk, but there are many in Chita and Irkutsk. The fortress groups in Chita and Irkutsk are all built on the bridgeheads of river bridges.
, the fortress built on one side of the particularly important bridge is even more exaggerated than these two.
The reason why the Polar Bears wanted to build such a strong fortress group was mainly because of the powerful strike power displayed by the Empire during the Battle of Varen. The Polar Bear authorities quickly realized that the strategic mouthpieces of Chita, Irkutsk and Ulan
Wu Dewei also.
Therefore, the Polar Bear Far East Command, with the support of the base camp, once again expanded and strengthened the fortress strength at these pass crossings.
The Empire's Northern War Zone is fully aware of these situations. During the previous aerial bombardments and heavy artillery bombardments, the minefield in front of the fortress lost its effect. The huge power of the bombs exploded these mines that were not buried very deeply one by one.
.
When the 3rd Heavy Tank Regiment was blocked by the fortress group, an imperial soldier carrying a strange weapon emerged from the bottom of each heavy tank. They relied on the cover of the tank and came out from the escape door at the bottom of the tank.
Then, quickly rush to the enemy's fortress and shoot at the blind spot.
Then, these warriors formed a group of three each. Each group had a gun-like object and a bottle-shaped object on its back. Such warriors rushed out of the tank. There were 6 groups of 18
People. What they used was the weapon specially prepared by Zhou Yu for trench and fortress warfare - the "Line of Fire" flamethrower.
Faced with enemy defense facilities such as bunkers and fortresses that cannot be destroyed by planes or cannons, Zhou Yu provided and developed flamethrowers. In fact, this device was not Zhou Yu’s first invention. As early as February 1915,
The German emperor took the lead in using it against the Gallic Roosters at Verdun.
But the "Fireline" injector used by Zhou Yu is very different from the one used by the German Empire. The shape of the "Fire Fist" light assault flamethrower commonly used by Zhou Yu is similar to that of later generations.
A tubular fuel tank similar to a blasting tube, 1 meter long, 0.1 meter in diameter, and 2 mm thick, contains 5 liters of fuel.
The front of the fuel tank is a 0.1-meter-long nozzle. The interface with the fuel tank is usually plugged with a rubber plug. There is a propellant chamber below the nozzle. The "fire line" is ignited through a friction igniter. Press the friction igniter.
The broken lever breaks the propellant chamber, the fuel is sprayed out, and the igniter ignites at the same time.
Its total weight is 10 kilograms, its range is 25 meters, and its injection time is 5 seconds.
When Zhou Yu first designed this weapon, it was prepared for jungle warfare in Southeast Asia. Because after landing on the island, he faced countless enemy bunkers and tunnel fortifications hidden in the complex environment of the tropical rain forest. He wanted to
If you scoop them out, you will have to pay a heavy price to conquer them...
Due to the complex terrain, naval guns are often unable to support the landing, and there are almost no heavy artillery during landing. It is difficult for light artillery to destroy the fortifications, and it is difficult for bullets to hit the enemy troops in the fortifications.
Therefore, a flamethrower that can rely on high temperature to kill enemies hidden in solid bunkers, fortifications, caves or trenches, and can also be used to ignite enemy flammable weapons, equipment, and supplies has become what Zhou Yu envisioned in jungle warfare.
an important force in overcoming difficulties.
By burning the enemies in the fortifications at high temperatures and consuming the oxygen in the narrow fortifications in a short period of time through violent combustion, causing them to suffocate, the enemies in the target fortifications can quickly lose their resistance. Unfortunately, in jungle warfare in Southeast Asia, this is not necessary.
Use this thing.
Unexpectedly, today's polar bears have used the European fortress battle tactics to the Far East. But what they are facing is the imperial government led by Zhou Yu. The result for the polar bears is of course very tragic.
Yes! Using modern means to fight World War I, the results can be imagined.
18 Imperial warriors were divided into 6 groups, with 3 people in each group. One of the group was a flamethrower and the other two were observers. In addition to the flamethrower, the flamethrower was only equipped with a self-defense pistol, while the observer
Equipped with the Empire's new light machine gun, it provides cover for the flamethrowers.
6 groups?p
The dredging team was divided into two teams. The team was responsible for one of the enemy's fortresses and fired flames at the enemy's shooting holes in turn. Because, before, the enemy was exposed to the outside, all the forces that could threaten the soldiers were covered by the air force, artillery and artillery.
, and tanks and artillery destroyed.
Therefore, there is no problem with the safety of the soldiers who have turned into a blind spot.
In addition, the "Fire Line" thing does not need to shoot directly. As long as it can reach the angle of the enemy's shooting space, it is no problem. Moreover, the three teams can also take turns to shoot into the enemy's shooting hole from a distance of more than 20 meters.
, this shooting method can be said to be extremely simple.
When strong flames were shot into the enemy fort, it caused objects in the fort to burn, ammunition to explode, and personnel to suffocate and die. Moreover, the temperature in the fort continued to remain high, so enemies who wanted to reinforce from the tunnels were unable to achieve effective support.
As the soldiers continued to fire, the two fortresses became veritable death bunkers. Severe high temperature and lack of oxygen, as well as intermittent explosions, caused a certain degree of collapse inside the fortresses. If you want to use them again, it will take a while.
