Several senior generals of the ASEAN coalition roared angrily, completely losing their complacent look before. Once the armored forces cannot complete the cross penetration as planned, how will their follow-up plans proceed?
"No, no more gas."
What?
The bodies of these guys swayed and they felt dizzy. They were cursing their mothers in their hearts. How could they run out of fuel at the critical moment?
This is the most fatal flaw in this plan.
Type and Type main battle tanks were China's main equipment. No one knows the performance of these two tanks better than the Chinese.
If we start from the "287" position of the ASEAN coalition and conduct a straight line penetration, there will be absolutely no problem in penetrating Penang.
However, the Japanese army is not a fool. Will there be no anti-tank trenches on the outer defense line?
What's more, Penang had just been covered by artillery fire, and the main streets were blocked by collapsed buildings. The armored troops could not fly and could only go around. In addition, during the battle, for the sake of speed, the fuel tanks were not filled up at all.
Therefore, after two hours of running, fighting, and interspersing, the fuel was exhausted.
After losing its strong assault capability, even though the Japanese army did not have heavy anti-tank weapons, there were a thousand ways to deal with the tanks that stayed in place.
"Damn it, hurry up, tell the infantry behind to follow. You, Yi.si|Shu.yuan"
"Occupy the oil depot in the city."
Several senior leaders of the ASEAN coalition were as anxious as ants on a hot pot.
"Yes Yes Yes."
"But, sir, when the artillery bombed the city before, the oil depots were the key areas to take care of. I'm afraid."
Suddenly, several guys felt like they had fallen into an ice cellar, and they thought to themselves, "Who the hell is he who shot himself in the foot? If time could be turned back, they would definitely not let the artillery blow it up."
Oil depots and other places in the city.
"what to do?"
The sweat on the faces of these guys was like beans, rolling down continuously. In less than a minute, their clothes were completely soaked through.
what to do?
They looked big and small, and based on the general attack plan they formulated, they considered various situations, except that they did not consider the situation that there would be no fuel and the armored units would be completely scrapped.
Moreover, in the recent series of battles, they had become accustomed to executing the strategies formulated by Situ Lingfeng. They did not need to use their brains at all, and they could not think of a reason for the moment.
"Why don't we retreat?" One guy said tentatively.
"No, our morale is strong, the armored troops have already entered the city, and the infantry forwards have also entered.
