"Huh? What is this sound?" He Shuya was confused for a moment.
Tieniu was also a little confused because he hadn't heard a familiar voice for a long time.
On the contrary, a recruit next to him said in an uncertain tone: "It seems like the sound of the engine of our tank?"
"Our tank?!" He Shuya and Tieniu looked at each other, and then quickly looked back. At this time, another row of flares was lit. With the dazzling light cast by the flares, the two of them could clearly see,
A dark steel behemoth emerged from the corner of the street behind them, and its slender barrel stretched straight towards this side.
Isn't it the tank from their independent regiment? The familiar yet unfamiliar T-34B tank!
And it’s not over yet, right after the first T-34B tank that appeared, there was the second, then the third, and then the fourth!
A total of four tanks arrived!
Almost instantly, the blood all over He Shuya's body began to boil.
The next moment, He Shuya immediately raised his pistol and roared hysterically: "Brothers, it's our tank, it's our tank coming up, kill those stupid little devils, kill those little devils! Kill them!"
Tieniu was the first to react and immediately yelled: "Fuck you little devil!"
"Fuck the little devil!"
"Fuck the little devil!"
"Fuck the little devil!"
The last remaining fifty or so soldiers of the second battalion immediately started roaring hysterically.
Amidst the hysterical roars of the officers and soldiers of the second battalion, the four T-34B tanks that attacked quickly entered the forward position, and then crossed the simple defense line of the officers and soldiers of the second battalion. They watched the tanks numbered zero and one slowly pass in front of them.
After driving by, He Shuya reached out and patted the fender of the tank, because he knew that his classmate, Mei Jiuling, was sitting inside.
The barrel of the No. 0001 tank also raised slightly to pay tribute to He Shuya.
The next moment, He Shuya waved his hand, and the last fifty or so remnant soldiers of the second battalion immediately divided into four groups, followed behind the four T-34B tanks, and resolutely faced the Japanese approaching from the front.
Directly in front, four Type 95 light tanks guided more than a hundred Japs, charging towards them menacingly.
In the night sky, one after another Japanese fighter jets or attack aircraft roared past, dropping aerial bombs one after another, or dumping rows of machine gun bullets. However, with the T-34B tank
Protection, the survival probability of the officers and soldiers of the second battalion was greatly improved immediately, because unless a general aerial bomb directly hits the body of the tank, it is difficult to lift a T-T weighing more than 20 tons with the air wave generated by the explosion alone.
Type 34B tank.
As for direct hits, although the Japanese pilots have rich flying experience, the difficulty is also extremely high, because the battlefield is in the streets and alleys of the city. For the infantry on the ground, the streets of more than 20 meters are already very wide, but for the infantry on the ground, the streets are very wide.
For an aircraft flying at high speed in the sky, such a street is no different than a ribbon.
If you want to accurately throw an aerial bomb into such a small area during high-speed flight, it is very big!
What's more, there is high-intensity anti-aircraft firepower waiting for them all around. Damn the Chinese, their ground infantry has been beaten into such a state, but they still refuse to dispatch even an anti-aircraft machine gun to support, and
They still poured out their ferocious firepower into the night sky, weaving an endless firepower network around them!
Returning to the ground battlefield first, after the T-34B tank entered the battle, the situation immediately became very different.
"Boom, boom, boom!" The four Type 95 light tanks of the Little Devils opened fire first, and two of the shells accurately hit the T-34B tanks in front. Unfortunately, they did not pose a fatal threat to the target. They just
Two faint dents were left on the thick body of the T-34B tank.
The penetration power of the 37mm caliber main gun equipped by the Japanese tank is still a little bit poor. It cannot penetrate the front armor of the T-34B tank at all, and the side armor is also very weak.
Immediately afterwards, four T-34B tanks also opened fire one after another.
Because the fire was on the move and the Japanese tanks were also moving, the hit rate was not high. Only two shells hit the target, but the damage caused was fatal enough. One of the Japanese Type 95 tanks was penetrated through the turret, with an 88mm caliber.
After the kinetic energy bullet penetrated the iron turret, it formed a huge metal turbulence.
The high-temperature and high-speed metal turbulence invaded the tank compartment wantonly, and the three Japanese tank soldiers inside were shot into a sieve almost instantly. This was an advantage for them, as they did not experience any pain before they died.
Another Japanese Type 95 light tank was in slightly better condition. Only the left track and driving wheel were damaged. However, the track and driving wheel on one side were severely damaged, which directly caused the tank to be unable to move forward and could only move forward.
It was spinning in circles and was quickly destroyed by supplementary fire from Chinese tanks.
In the blink of an eye, the remaining two Japanese tanks were also destroyed.
Seeing this, He Shuya and the more than fifty remnant soldiers of the second battalion suddenly cheered. While cheering, they also raised their Bobosha submachine guns and fired fiercely at the Japanese soldiers in front who had lost the protection of the tanks. The Japanese infantry who had lost their protection had already received the response.
He didn't dare to turn around and retreat despite the death order, so he could only stay where he was and shoot at him with his gun.
Only a few clever Japanese soldiers hid in private houses on the street.
But this was in vain, as the crumbling houses provided no cover.
The four T-34B tanks that came to support, after completing the crushing of the Japanese tanks, immediately turned their firepower to the unprotected Japanese infantry. A few Japanese infantry were seen hiding in private houses on the street.
, they all turned their turrets and aimed their main guns at the crumbling houses.
"Boom!" Two cannons rang out, and several houses collapsed.
The few Japanese soldiers who hid inside had no time to escape and were buried alive.
The Japanese infantry who stayed on the street and resisted did not fare much better. Under the repeated firepower of the four T-34 tanks' onboard heavy machine guns and the submachine gun fire of the officers and soldiers of the second battalion, they were quickly killed and injured. Soon, all along the
The group of Japanese who rushed towards Beimen Street had all been wiped out, but the Second Battalion only lost less than ten people.
Of the ten people who died, nine were killed by the Japanese air force.
Almost the same scene was also staged on the East City Battlefield and the West City Battlefield.
With the support of a tank company sent by the tank battalion, the already shaky defense line was immediately stabilized. Not only did he stabilize the defense line, but he also recaptured several blocks and pushed the defense line back to the edge of the city. Now Xu Rui finally
There is time and space to readjust deployment and strengthen defense.
For the independent group, an unprecedented crisis has passed.
…
But for the Japanese, an unprecedented crisis has arrived.
"Nani? Tank?!" Ishihara Wan'er's tone of voice changed due to surprise, and his tongue began to get knotted.
"Hai!" The signal soldier who came to report the news paused heavily and repeated in panic, "Just when we were about to break through the last line of defense of the Chinese Army, several T-34 tanks suddenly appeared behind the opponent's position, and the opponent's
The T-34 tank's main gun has a larger caliber and its armor is obviously thicker, so our offensive was immediately disrupted."
"Baga!" Ishihara Wanji's eyes widened and he became incoherent, "Damn tank!"
The signal corpsman paused again, and then asked: "Your Excellency, Commander, the division commander asked me to ask you, when will the additional troops arrive? All three infantry regiments of our ninth division have suffered heavy losses. If the additional troops arrive again,
If we can't get there in time, I'm afraid we won't be able to continue the attack."
Ishihara Wan'er was shocked when he heard this. Where did he get the additional troops?
Not only did he have no additional troops, but the base camp also had no additional troops!
In order to form the Far East Front Army, the Japanese base camp has mobilized almost all reserves and reservists! Although new reserves are being summoned in the country, how many people can be summoned in a short period of time? And even if they are summoned, I am afraid they can only be
What fighting ability can middle-aged and elderly people in their forties and fifties have?
Just as Ishihara was smiling and stunned, two more signal soldiers hurried in and reported to him that the offensives of the 11th Division in charge of the East City battlefield and the 13th Division in charge of the West City battlefield had also collapsed, and there were heavy casualties.
, both divisions requested the headquarters to dispatch supplementary troops as soon as possible, otherwise they would be unable to attack.
The signal corpsmen of the three divisions had just finished speaking. The division commander of the 2nd Armored Division and the commander of the 3rd Aviation Flying Regiment also came over one after another. They expressed to Ishihara Wanji with a sad expression that such an offensive could not be carried out.
If we continue, otherwise the entire 2nd Armored Division will be demobilized, and the 3rd Flying Regiment will soon be exhausted.
Ishihara Wanji looked at several signal soldiers, then at the division commander of the 2nd Armored Division, and finally at the commander of the 3rd Flying Regiment. He suddenly stumbled, took a step back and fell to the ground.
The two guards quickly stepped forward to help Ishihara Wan'er up and asked with concern: "Your Excellency, Commander, what's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing, I'm fine." Ishihara Wan'er waved his hand, but the expression on his face instantly turned pale, and the pair of eyes that were originally bloodshot, but still bright, also instantly became blank.
He is also spiritless. This situation is like a martial arts master who loses his energy during practice and suddenly runs out of energy.
At this time, Yano Otonzaburo once again advised: "Your Excellency, Commander, if it is still too late to retreat now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ishihara Wanji jumped up from the ground. Not only did his face return to its original state, but his pair of triangular eyes also became full of energy again. He said sternly: "Why retreat? Isn't it just a few T-34 tanks? There are
What are you afraid of? Order the aviation regiment to continue to intensify its bombing efforts, and then transfer the last T-34 tank squadron up!"
"Hai!" Facing the crazy Ishihara smile, Yano Otonzaburo could only pause.
