The luckier Qin Air Force did not wait until the field airport near Xiajuan was repaired. Their aircraft all took off from the airport near Dongqing. Because the range of the TA-183 fighter jets was too short, basically those who participated in the war
They are all P-40 fighter jets.
Naturally, these propeller fighters were no match for the Tang Empire Air Force, but the downing of these planes had little impact on the main force of the Qin Air Force.
Compared with the Army, which is already in chaos, the Air Force is just thinking about how to put its main fighter, the Type 183, into the battlefield.
On the frontal battlefield, Liu Guozhu's tank ran over a collapsed fence, and then met Qin soldiers in the village who had just been captured by the forward troops.
The reconnaissance troops equipped with wheeled assault guns directly penetrated the frightened Qin troops. The combat effectiveness of these terrifying armored reconnaissance vehicles in actual combat was countless times more terrifying than imagined.
Whether it is a light reconnaissance type equipped with a 30mm caliber cannon or an assault reconnaissance type equipped with a 105 caliber artillery, they are a nightmare for the Qin army's infantry.
It is really cruel to hit people with a 30mm caliber machine gun. Just look at the bloodstains everywhere in the village and you can feel the devastation these Qin troops experienced at that time.
For Liu Guozhu, these "reconnaissance troops" were a bit too annoying... They had done all the work of the main force, which made the main force look stupid and stupid following them.
"We have already reached this position, why can't the Qin people organize a decent defense?" The tank driver who stuck his head out to drive complained boredly into the communication device.
They really hope to have some real lines of defense to stop the rampaging reconnaissance troops and let their Type 64 tanks show off their power for once.
It's a pity that their opponents still don't know what happened. All the troops seemed to have their brains shut down and stayed where they were, waiting to die.
"The news just came, some troops of the Qin Army have begun to set up defense lines on the spot." Liu Guozhu said to his men.
Because they have advanced for almost 150 kilometers, his tank unit has to stop to check the status of the vehicles. Whether there are any problems with the tracks and whether there are errors in the vehicle equipment due to bumps, etc., all need to be checked.
Of course, tanks are indeed not so fragile, but although it is like sightseeing, this is a battlefield after all. It is better to check the status of the equipment as you advance than to regret it when the enemy dies.
"Notify the battalion headquarters that our 1st company will stop to check the status of the tanks!" After Liu Guozhu's order was given, these tanks that had been running along the road for more than 100 kilometers stopped one after another.
Some members leaned out and started smoking, while others tore open the packaging of candies or chocolates and began to regain their strength.
Liu Guozhu pressed the earphone on one side and confirmed various messages on the channel: "I am the 1st company! Yes, are there any signs of enemy activity near me?"
"The reconnaissance team has not found it! The news feedback from the Air Force has not arrived yet. It will take about 20 minutes." In the headset, the communications soldier from the battalion headquarters answered his question.
The Tang army's reconnaissance and attacks were so airtight that the Qin army did not realize that they had almost lost the battle.
Just when Liu Guozhu was confirming this information, two Hind Mi-24 armed helicopters roared over the heads of the entire armored company.
The huge air flow rolled up the dead branches and leaves on the ground, and the roar of the engine made everyone involuntarily cover their ears and raise their heads to look at them.
This weird armed helicopter that is huge and can carry people has an ugly aesthetic. Its bubble-shaped cockpit makes this armed helicopter look like a demon flying in the sky.
However, the Army of the Tang Empire still likes to call it the Hind, and everyone has a good impression of it. Because this kind of armed helicopter that can carry soldiers has strong firepower and a sense of oppression, it is a very useful means of attack in their hands.
After the two armed helicopters passed the long line of tanks on the ground, they hovered not far away. A few seconds later, they did not know what they had discovered, and suddenly began to attack farther away.
The huge noise made everyone squint their eyes and cover their ears. The rocket launching nests hanging on the short wings on both sides of the Hind gunship continued to spit out tongues of fire, and one rocket after another flew towards it.
far away.
"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo ho!" The terrifying sound of rockets whizzing lasted for more than ten seconds before it completely stopped, and then two helicopters rushed over one after the other.
At this time, the tank crew of Liu Guozhu's tank unit who were inspecting the tank smelled a burning smell. They continued to be busy with the work at hand, their eyes full of envy and depression.
What I envy is that this kind of attack that comes and falls from the sky with ease is so cool, and it is much stronger than those hard-working guys who drive tanks.
They were depressed because they were watching helplessly as another part of the credit that belonged to them was taken away. They had not yet encountered a real battle, and some of the "credit" was due to these damn armed helicopters.
The gunner leaned against Liu Guozhu, looked at the Hind in the distance who was using the rotating cannon under the fuselage to shoot at ground targets, and lit a cigarette: "It must have been destroyed again."
"There is no need to estimate, we will collapse if we are hit." Liu Guozhu had no doubt that if the two armed helicopters fired so many rockets at his tank company and then rushed up and fired continuously, his tank company would not be able to withstand it.
live.
It's a pity that they are friendly forces, otherwise the two planes could evaporate them in an instant. Modern warfare... is no longer what Liu Guozhu is familiar with.
The two armed helicopters obtained battlefield information directly from the reconnaissance force, and then they rushed to the battlefield, suppressed it from a distance with rocket launchers, and then relied on their thick armor to attack at close range.
They react faster and have higher maneuverability closer to the start of the battle, so they usually arrive on the battlefield faster than tanks.
In fact, they are almost losing their prestige. As the battlefield advances, once the construction speed of the field airport cannot keep up, these armed helicopters will no longer be able to rush to the front and rush to do the work of the tank troops.
It's just that I don't know how many Qin troops will be left for the tank troops to deal with at that time. I hope some lucky guys can hold on until then.
Soon, the two armed helicopters ran out of ammunition, twisted their huge bodies, and flew over the head of Liu Guozhu's tank company.
