In various dramas about the future republic, the forced and helpless soldiers of the national army would tie up hand grenades, get under the Japanese tanks and pull the grenades, and the tanks would collapse with a "boom". The scene made people sigh at the bravery of the warriors.
Heroic and extremely relieving, it is a storyline that almost every director uses.
Whether in the city or in the mountains and plains, wherever tanks can drive, you will see the heroic figure of the national army.
Of course, this is not fabricated out of thin air. On the contrary, there are many such examples. Whether it is the Battle of Songhu or the bloody battle of Taierzhuang, there are shadows of the national army soldiers risking their own lives and dying together with enemy tanks. Regarding these, whether it is Japan or China, in
The battle records are all recorded in detail, and they are heroic events that cannot be erased by the passage of time.
However, this kind of heroism hides so much sadness and helplessness! The country's industry and economy are completely backward, resulting in soldiers needing to use flesh and blood to compete with the enemy's steel weapons. This is something everyone should bear in mind.
In the future, China will definitely not be able to follow this old path again.
Moreover, if you think that it is easy to strap a grenade to your body and crawl under a tank, then you are totally wrong.
When the armored forces were first established, the shortcomings in perspective destined the early armored forces to be unable to independently complete the task of attacking positions during combat. The armored forces must be protected by infantry. Whether it is a tank or an armored vehicle without infantry protection, as long as it is attacked by the enemy's
If the infantry enters the blind spot of the tanks, it will be the end of these steel monsters.
While the infantry provides protection to the armored forces, the armor's powerful attack and defense capabilities also provide strong support to the infantry.
The Germans, who were at the forefront in this regard, organized the armored division established before 1936 (taking the Second Armored Division established in 1935 as an example): two armored regiments, two infantry shooting battalions (infantry), and one
Motorized gunnery battalion (motorized infantry), two artillery battalions, a reconnaissance company, and anti-armor, engineer and communications battalions.
It was precisely with this combination of armored divisions from various services that the Germans in the early days of World War II annihilated their opponents' infantry divisions one after another in a devastating manner. Their force was so powerful that no one could stop it. The giant bear in the north
The proud 7 million red troops were lost within half a year.
As for the Japanese, although their level of mechanized combat is still at the kindergarten level compared to the Germans, they at least know how to use infantry to protect the safety around tanks.
All enemies who want to bully the tank within 20 meters are their key targets.
On such a battlefield, even if you want to be a hero, it is not that easy.
As the tanks commanded by Watanabe Katsuharu got closer and closer to the trenches, the puppet infantry was ready to charge and jump into the trenches, and the death squad warriors hiding in the trenches could not bear it anymore.
If the puppet troops are the first to rush into the trenches, they are most likely to be shot to death in the trenches, instead of being able to pull a tank as a backing before they die. If the tank cannot be blown up, not only will the brothers behind them die, but also the brothers behind them will die.
The 100-yuan pension per person promised by the deputy group leader was gone.
The twelve soldiers distributed in the trenches used their own unique tactics. Some of them aimed in the direction of the tank and found a corner in the trench to pretend to be dead. A large bundle of cluster grenades was pressed under them, waiting for Tucker to cross the trench.
The moment his belly was exposed was the moment he pulled the grenade ring.
Such a soldier who is completely determined to die will naturally succeed. No one has time to check the authenticity of a "corpse" on the battlefield. As long as the tank passes five meters around him, no one can stop him and the tank from dying together.
The power of several 150-gram explosive grenades exploding at the same time is no less powerful than a mountain artillery shell.
However, even if they are desperate to die, not many people will adopt this method of 100% death. As long as they are human, they will always have the idea of escaping. Just like many people will think when they see the film and television footage, why don’t those heroes
Wouldn't it be enough to just stuff the grenade in and hide away? That would not only accomplish the task but also save one's life. What a perfect ending!
As an outsider, you will think so, and people who are in it will naturally think so. Everyone wants to live well in this world and enjoy the sunshine and air. Many people will say that you are blaspheming the heroes, and you are thinking so.
The heart of a villain measures the belly of a gentleman.
However, this is human nature and has nothing to do with morality or quality.
Just like Dong Cunrui who bombed the bunker and Huang Jiguang who blocked the muzzle of the machine gun in the Red Army, don't they want to live? Of course they want to live. It is even written in the records in detail. Martyr Dong Cunrui fired the explosives many times in a row, and the explosives slipped.
If it cannot be placed between the angle between the pillar and the bottom of the bridge, the bridge cannot be blown down at all. Finally, holding up the explosive bag with your hands is really the last choice; and Martyr Huang Jiguang stuffed the explosive tube several times but was pushed out by the enemy.
, the machine gun still continued to roar, and his comrades were still wailing on the ground. He could no longer block the enemy's machine gun, so he chose to use his chest;
So what choices did they make? The reason why they became heroes is not because they have always been of noble character, but because at that moment, the choice they made defeated human nature. Even if it was just a decision in that moment, it will last forever.
The night sky that shines in the Republic.
Most of the suicide squad soldiers still chose to crawl towards the tank, trying to send the cluster grenades carried on their backs under the tracks of the tank.
Very few succeeded, and the journey of more than ten meters became their road to death. Except for one or two individual soldiers who were extremely well-educated, they escaped the puppet army's gunfire with a few leaps at lightning speed.
The grenade paralyzed the tank, and he hid in the crater next to it.
Most of the others were shot dead by puppet troops and tank machine guns on the way forward. There was also a soldier disguised as a corpse who fired a grenade hidden under him the moment the track passed over his head.
After sacrificing the lives of a dozen soldiers, three of the eight tanks lay dormant, and two of them could still shoot. That is to say, one was completely blown up. The relatively "soft" bottom steel plate was formed at the moment of the explosion.
The sputtering flow of metal particles directly burned the people and objects in the tank compartment to ashes. Including the tank that was killed by the mountain cannon before, there were still four tanks that could move.
Four terrifying steel monsters crossed the two-meter-wide trench, and their diesel engines spewed black smoke and made a terrifying roar as they rushed toward the second trench of Position 1.
In mountainous operations, I never expected that the Japanese army would dispatch tanks. Due to the terrain, trenches could not be dug too wide. Two-meter-wide trenches were not difficult at all for the Type 89 medium tank.
The puppet soldiers also jumped into the trenches one after another. The trenches not only allowed them to avoid the approaching artillery shells, but also made it easier to occupy the second trench, thereby occupying the entire No. 1 position. With the addition of subsequent troops, the entire
The mountain top will be theirs.
The national soldiers in the second trench looked pale. They were not afraid of the hundreds of puppet troops, but the remaining five tanks were unstoppable monsters. If they were allowed to continue to advance, even if the brothers in the follow-up troops supported them,
