Both Liu Zizheng and Chen Kangjian were dissatisfied with the final result.
After considering the performances of both sides, Pierre concluded that half of Chen Kangjian's tanks would be lost, and all of Liu Zizheng's anti-tank gun positions would be destroyed.
This was a judgment method in which each had a fifty-fifty score. Both Liu Zizheng and Chen Kangjian felt wronged. However, the lawsuit was brought to Qin Zhiyuan. After Qin Zhiyuan's ruling, the judgment was valid and the exercise continued.
Now is not the time for a lawsuit. There are so many senior generals present and everyone is busy with matters. It is not easy to find time to come here. It is really unseemly to delay.
Then go to the third observation point.
The third observation point is near the preset battlefield, which is a hilly area in the Errani area. The exercise has entered this step, and Liu Zizheng and Chen Kangjian, as commanders at both ends of the offense and defense, have fully entered the state and put this exercise into practice.
Just treat it as actual combat.
Our regiment spent three days building a complete fortification here. Although the width is only a hundred meters, there are all kinds of defense facilities within this 100-meter range, which perfectly simulates the terrain of the Sherman Dedam area, including artillery.
The number is still exceeded, with a total of 12 gun positions within a distance of 100 meters. Liu Zizheng first introduced the defensive positions.
Okay, your position is only a hundred meters wide, and I won't bully you. I will only use ten tanks to attack with a company of infantry. Chen Kangjian has a high profile.
This was also Qin Zhiyuan's request. Otherwise, according to Chen Kangjian's habit, he wouldn't care how wide the defensive position on the opposite side was or how powerful the defensive force was. He would definitely swarm up and beat the old master to death with random punches.
Chen Kangjian was very kind in arranging only one company of attack troops. In the spring offensive that just started today, the British Canadian Army launched the first attack in Arras. The scale of the attack was very large. Three armies started at the same time, and the population
The density is about 15,000 people per kilometer.
Behind the British starting position, the British used the gravel from 206 trains to pave the road and prepared 2,800 cannons and heavy howitzers. There was an average British artillery every 10 meters, and the firepower density exceeded that of Verdun.
The Battle of the Somme and the Battle of the Somme were, if not unprecedented, at least unprecedented.
The reason why it is not said to be a last resort is because the French, who are conducting a fire attack on the Sherman Dedam area, are better prepared. When the French launch an attack, the British are in a child's play situation.
Of course, compared to the attack the British were launching, this exercise was like a game.
But even if it was a game, Chen Kangjian and Liu Zizheng both put in 100% effort and paid every penny.
According to previous judgments, five of Chen Kangjian's tanks were destroyed on the way, and only five reached the anti-tank trenches.
All anti-tank trenches were dug according to German standards, fifteen feet wide and ten feet deep. When converted into metric units, they are about 4.5 meters wide and 3 meters deep.
Such specifications are sufficient for the ft17 tank equipped by the French army. After adding a tail, the French ft17 tank can cross a trench two meters wide, and its wide front wheels can climb up to a height of one meter at a 45-degree angle.
of low walls.
If the original performance of the ft17 were to be followed, this anti-tank trench would be enough to form a natural chasm.
But obviously the tank soldiers were well prepared for this, because all the anti-tank guns on the front position had been destroyed, so these tanks could stop in front of the anti-tank trenches and calmly roll out the bunkers on the defensive position one by one, and the defenders responded to this
There is no way.
All tanks equipped with this batch are 75mm tank guns. Due to the technical conditions at this time, accurate shooting may not be possible if the distance is too far, but at a distance of only 100 meters, the 75mm gun is still very powerful.
, at least there is no problem at all in overturning the bunkers and machine gun positions on the defenders' positions.
The infantry accompanying the tank attack now came into play. They jumped down from the anti-tank trenches and prepared to open the way forward.
Oops
A soldier suddenly tilted his body and stepped into a small pit.
Attrition, that soldier was attrited in combat. Liu Zizheng immediately pointed out.
Nonsense, you just made a small hole and reduced the number of employees. Chen Kangjian won't do it.
Chen Kangjian's tanks were judged to have lost half, and his soldiers were also judged to have lost one-third. Chen Kangjian only sent one company. Now any soldier is precious and cannot be given up easily.
It's just a small hole now, but if it were on a real battlefield, I would dig it into a big hole. Liu Zizheng has a backup plan.
Then I won't climb up, but how many meters can you dig? Chen Kangjian, who has been practicing tan legs since he was a child, is confident.
There are bamboo sticks on the bottom of the pit, dipped in excrement water. Liu Zizheng is vicious.
Damn, you are awesome, you won. Chen Kangjian was defeated.
It is not unusual to add a bamboo knife to the trap. It is very harmful to have the bamboo knife dipped in fecal water, because as long as you are stuck with this kind of bamboo stick, you will almost 100% suffer from complications, let alone in this era, even in the 21st century.
It's a troublesome thing.
After all, the damage that the trap can cause is limited. Soon the soldiers installed explosives in the anti-tank trench. With two loud noises, the four-and-a-half-meter-wide and three-meter-deep anti-tank trench became six meters wide and one meter deep. The tank
Can pass easily.
The tanks that crossed the anti-tank trenches were like pawns crossing the river. They were really unstoppable and killed all directions. The two-meter-high and one-meter-wide barbed wire just ignored it and ran over it.
The tree stumps, which were burnt black and complained silently, were rolled over directly. Seeing the cluster grenades of the guards flying towards them, they were still rolled over. Even if there were huge landmines on the ground, they were still rolled over.
Well, the one who rolled the mines and the one who rolled the grenades were ruled out.
Wait, the tank is now located next to the first trench, and I have a flamethrower hidden in the trench. Liu Zizheng said leisurely.
At this time, due to various reasons, only two tanks were left to rush to the defenders' position, but even these two tanks had already started the killing mode. According to the exercise rules, if Liu Zizheng did not kill these two tanks within two minutes,
, the defenders will be sentenced to defeat.
The soldiers who accompanied the tank attack were equipped with shotguns and grenades. Before they reached the edge of the trench, I threw the grenade in first. Before your flamethrower came out, I was already killed. Chen Kangjian was a little out of his mind.
There were high hopes for the tank troops to attack the infantry defensive positions. Chen Kangjian was full of confidence at the beginning. But now, Chen Kangjian no longer has much confidence in his heart. Seeing that the tanks are almost being worn to death bit by bit,
Chen Kangjian was worried.
Damn, you are the only one who has grenades and I have mortars. My mortars are hiding on the reverse slope to attack your infantry. How many of you can come up? Liu Zizheng's tone was also a little anxious.
There is also competition within the First Brigade. Seeing that Chen Kangjian's hard-working unit has been upgraded to a tank regiment, Liu Zizheng is also feeling itchy.
In the past three months, Liu Zizheng has not been idle. He has also accumulated more than 200 tank crews. As long as he has enough tanks, his army can transform into what Qin Zhiyuan calls a rapid-reaction mechanized force.
