Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated Chapter 308

Chapter 308 Phantom Tank, Light Tank and Black Gun

Perspective returns to the 1st Marine Regiment.

 Looking at the soldiers who were building fortifications in front of him, Chen Jieshan's expression looked very unnatural. He hesitated for a long time, and finally hinted:

“Captain Li, you might as well speak more clearly.”

“Even if I focus all my energy on military affairs, I really don't understand your tactics and troop formations.”

“The enemy's pursuit force is the 14th Cavalry Regiment and the 71st Chariot Regiment. With the strength of you and me, it is impossible to defeat the combination of the enemy's cavalry and armored forces.”

“Even if the engineers dug anti-tank trenches directly in front of the position, the Japanese would have special engineering vehicles to fill them up. Once those tanks rush in front of us, the consequences will be”

 Although Chen Jieshan said it tactfully, Captain Li Da still understood what he wanted to express.

The other side was simply worried that they had not been exposed to armored combat, so they chose a wrong tactic and style of play, which ultimately led to the annihilation of the 1st Marine Regiment and the 35th Army.

However, what Chen Jieshan didn't know was that the 1st Marine Regiment had anticipated today's situation a month ago and even prepared a set of corresponding tactics.

Seeing that his persuasion had no effect, the candied lieutenant general added anxiously:

“Captain Li, you don't know something. The Mongolian Army has two specialized engineering vehicles, one is called the Type 89 Engineer Combat Vehicle, and the other is called the Type 97 Hammer Mine Clearance Vehicle.”

“The former is very versatile, capable of building bridges, filling pits, digging ditches, and breaking obstacles. The latter is mainly used for mine clearance and is definitely the natural enemy of anti-tank fortifications.”

“Even if we prepare enough anti-tank trenches, the limit is to delay the Japanese for a while. In my humble opinion, this matter needs long-term consideration. How about you try to apply for air support again?”

In order to cope with the all-out attack by the Mongolian troops, the 35th Army mobilized civilians in the defense area to fortify the walls and clear the fields, and also dug a large number of anti-tank trenches.

It's a pity that the fortifications that were given high hopes by Qilu did not play their due role.

With the engineering vehicles clearing the way, the Japanese armored forces' breakthrough speed was hardly affected, and it took only a week to reach the Wuyuan area from Baotou.

Since then, the Eighth War Zone has seriously realized the impact of technology on warfare.

Looking at the anxious appearance of the friendly forces, Li Yunlong had no choice but to be patient and reveal all his plans.

"Commander Chen, my tactics are not to rely on anti-tank trenches to fight head-on with armored forces. No matter how wealthy the Eighth Route Army is, they will not be crazy enough to fill the line with elite airborne troops. That is something only idiots can do."

“The frontal position is just a target used to attract the firepower of the Mongolian troops. When the enemy appears, just fire a few cannons and the mission will be completed.”

“I will place all the real elites on the side positions. The troops over there are the trump card of our 1st Marine Regiment, and they are definitely enough to give the little devils a drink.”

As soon as these words came out, Chen Jieshan was completely confused.

 Nothing but Li Yunlong's tone and appetite.

Even though the opponent knew the strength of the pursuing troops, they still dared to pat their chests and promise to annihilate all the enemies. This kind of confidence was not something ordinary people could possess.

"Oh? As far as I know, your department has already installed French anti-tank guns. It seems that Commander Li is well prepared."

At this moment, a burst of exclamation came from the distance.

　Judging from their location and accent, it is not difficult to tell that they are soldiers of the 35th Army.

What's more, this is not the first time something like this has happened. The same thing happened when the 1st Marine Regiment distributed weapons and supplies.

But this time the situation seemed to be a little different. The duration of the exclamation was far longer than the previous times combined, and it was even mixed with some kind of familiar and unfamiliar noise.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Jieshan looked at the Eighth Route Army colonel in front of him with wide eyes and disbelief.

 “Hey, it seems you have guessed the answer.”

“Yes, my trump card is also tanks. I didn't say that the 1st Marine Regiment does not have armored units.”

"After the pursuers show up, I will use the frontal position combined with anti-tank trenches to attract the enemy's attention and delay their actions. When the Japanese charge, they will inevitably expose the sides with relatively weak protection. Then we will fight back. time!"

Li Yunlong's tactics are not complicated. To put it bluntly, they are tank ambush battles.

 Although a tank is a weapon specially used for mobile warfare, it does not mean that soldiers cannot use it to shoot black guns.

After all, in a certain magical world, it is very common for light tanks to use black guns, heavy tanks to light up lights, tanks to destroy resistance lines, and medium tanks to hang up. There are all kinds of strange things in the world.

Closer to home, since the Type 97 medium tank has better firepower and protection than the Cicada tank, it is a very unwise choice to confront the enemy head-on.

In order to eat up the remnants of the 71st Tank Regiment, Commander Li decided to deploy the tanks in bunkers to use them as fixed and concealed firepower points.

The engineers of the 1st Marine Regiment dug some rectangular trenches that could accommodate the Cicada on the preset side positions, and then the soldiers of the combat mobile company drove the tanks in to camouflage them.

Disguising a tank is not a simple matter. The soldiers first shoveled turf to cover the turret, then stuck branches on the vehicle to disguise it as a dirt bag. Finally, they turned the gun barrel away from the battlefield and pretended to be leaning on the dirt bag. wood.

 Following the above-mentioned operations, the soldiers of the 1st Marine Regiment can get a three-star Phantom tank.

To be honest, as long as the mobile combat company is dark enough and the cover provided by the frontal position is provided, it is impossible for the Japs to discover that there is a group of tanks on the side firing black guns.

It seems that Li Yunlong was influenced by Kong Jie, and Li Yunlong was more thoughtful when arranging his positions.

The engineers not only dug multiple backup ambush sites just in case, but even set up dozens of false targets to attract enemy firepower.

 Looking at the smiling friendly commanders and the Cicada tank slowly driving out of the glider, Chen Jieshan felt that his world view was collapsing.

Forget airborne troops, at least all major military powers have paratrooper troops. I have read more or less information and even heard some rumors.

 An airborne tank is definitely a super weapon, not even a product of the current era!

Had he not seen it with his own eyes, he would not have believed that such a huge tank could be airborne.

As a lieutenant general commander with 22 years of military experience, Chen Jieshan quickly compared the tanks equipped with preserved fruits in his mind, and came to a very terrifying conclusion.

  Except for the T26 of the 200th Division, the Preserved Fruit seems to have no weapons that can compete with it.

An Italian grocery cart like CV33, with the same amount of hedging, is very likely not to be able to last for one round, and it is not even qualified to carry shoes.

Thinking of this, a bold idea grew in Chen Jieshan's heart. Maybe it would be a wise choice to change camps now.

  After all, Guozhou still suffers from an "inefficient bureaucracy," an "incompetent officer corps," a "corrupt national army," and "low inflation." No matter how you look at it, there is no future. After thinking for a moment, he said to Li Yunlong:

“Commander Li, although the 35th Army suffered heavy losses during the battle against the enemy, the soldiers are all good men of flesh and blood.”

"The enemy is ahead, and we cannot accept hiding in a safe place and waiting for victory. I hope your ministry can give us a chance to join the battle with the tank troops."

“If it doesn't work out, I'll apply to lead the commando team to the front line!”

Hearing the other party's request, Lao Li had to give him a high look.

Now that you still have the courage to attack behind the tank, you are definitely much better than some insects who are greedy for life and afraid of death.

But tank-tank coordination is a skill. If you rashly allow troops who have not trained together to join, I'm afraid it will have the effect of 1+1<2.

 After thinking about it again and again, Li Yunlong remembered the batch of 40 fires he had brought with him before leaving, so he replied seriously:

“Let's do this, I will send you a batch of new weapons from the Eighth Route Army. It can penetrate the frontal armor of the enemy's Type 97 medium tank at a position of 150 meters.”

"I will not give any fatal orders to the 35th Army. If necessary, I will notify you to launch an attack."

 “Okay! It's a deal!”

Just when Li and Chen had just finished discussing the next arrangements, the monitor of the communications class came running from behind.

 “Commander, the **** formation is calling.”

“The enemy is expected to arrive in half an hour. Captain Wang Hai reminds us to be ready for battle.”

"If necessary, they can also provide certain air support. It's just that the **** fighters have run out of aerial bombs and can only use aerial machine guns to shoot."

 Twenty minutes later, the cavalry group pursued the troops in march.

 Compared with when they first set off, the morale of the 71st Chariot Regiment and the 14th Cavalry Regiment dropped to the extreme. Regardless of whether they are ordinary soldiers or low-level officers, every Japanese soldier has a face.

 The bombing of the **** formation not only hit the body physically, but also dealt a heavy blow to the soul.

 The brothers have been able to persist until now only because of the insults and punches from their team captains and captains. The Army's big fight is still so awesome.

“Kawasaki-kun, are you sure the Eighth Route Army's air force won't come again?”

“My regiment now only has twenty-seven tanks left, and it really can't stand the struggle. If the entire army is wiped out, even if I can kill the enemy's airborne troops, I will most likely have to commit suicide.”

 “Damn the Army Aviation! They actually ignored our request for support!”

Although this was the first time horizontal bombing was attempted in actual combat, the **** formation still killed a total of twenty-five light and medium tanks.

There is no way, because the quality of the Japanese tanks is so poor that they will be paralyzed even if they are hit by an aerial bomb. If the tank regiment's logistics fleet hadn't carried enough parts, they probably wouldn't have been able to get even twenty-seven vehicles together.

 Hearing the complaints from his fellow commander, Zentaro Kawasaki's eyes also flashed with a trace of viciousness. Obviously, he was also dissatisfied with Lu Aviation's refusal.

 In fact, it's not the pilot's fault. After all, the Type 97 fighter's ultimate range is only 800 kilometers, and its combat radius does not support long-distance support at all.

 Once an air battle breaks out on the road, there is a high probability that it will end up with an emergency landing in the wild.

"Hengshan-kun, it seems that you still underestimate the value of the Eighth Route Army's airborne troops. Currently, there is no one in the upper echelons of the entire North China Front who doesn't want to wash away the shame, especially our Commander Okamura Neiji."

“If we can successfully complete the task, you and I may even be promoted.”

"In the current situation, our two regiments can only rely on each other. I hope you will no longer have thoughts and plans to preserve our strength. Speed ​​up and don't let the enemy run into the desert, where our advantage will be lost."

 That's right, Zentaro Kawasaki and Isamu Yokoyama did not obey the orders of their generals. Their current actions were a typical Japanese attack.

 As the commander of a cavalry group, Old Japanese Nishihara is naturally not a brainless man.

Now that the Eighth Route Army Air Force has dual-engine fighters, the combat radius will inevitably be greatly increased. Letting the two regiments roam around outside at this time is no different than seeking death.

How many tanks does the Mongolian army have?

I worked hard to save a batch, and I begged my grandpa and grandma to transfer a batch. The total is less than 150 vehicles.

The new equipment has just been obtained for a few weeks, and one-seventh of it has been lost before it has been warmed up. If we don't retreat now, are we waiting for the second wave of the Eighth Route Army to lick the ground?

But Zentaro Kawasaki had already become jealous. After receiving the order, he directly teamed up with Yokoyama Isamu to make a move to prevent the foreign king's life.

The two of them now hope to kill the Marine Corps and go back with Li Yunlong's head to claim credit and receive the reward. They are quite willing to succeed if they fail.

Facing the urging of his colleagues, Hengshan decisively ordered to his communications staff:

“Notify all squadrons! The road conditions ahead are not good. Change to a column formation and advance at full speed! If the infantry can get on the vehicle, get on it. If there is no room, get on the tank. If you fall behind, pursue it silently.”

“We must catch up with the remnants of the 35th Army before lunch today!”

After receiving the order, the remaining twenty-seven tanks were divided into nine groups, with three tanks in each group quickly passing through the narrow road ahead in a long snake formation.

All Japanese crews know one thing. If a single-column formation is attacked, it will be in a very embarrassing situation.

 Because the rear tank's line of sight is basically blocked by the front tank, and the teammates in front will lose their ability to move once they lie down.

 Using this formation is tantamount to giving up defense and just trying to pass a certain section of road quickly.

If nothing else, the accident happened quickly.

Just as the 71st Tank Regiment was advancing at full speed, a series of mortar firings suddenly came from the distance.

 A moment later, artillery shells like hail fell from the sky, and one after another the artillery shells fell into the moving queue. Just one round of shelling caused considerable damage to the infantry.

 “Enemy attack! All infantrymen get out of the car!”

 “People in front, don't block the road! All crew members! Speed ​​up and speed up!”

“Get out! The range of the 81mm mortar is not as far as ours! Change your formation and start counterattack!”

The above two sentences can be regarded as Yokoyama Isamu's last words, because at the moment he retracted into the car body, a 37mm armor-piercing round directly blew his head off.

For the headshot screen, you can refer to Fury
