In the Xiaoshan area, the scattered temperament and weapons were everywhere, and the Japanese soldiers with low expressions were listless. In just three days, their morale and morale were all collapsed.

From time to time, there are "Battle Bear" and "Gray Wolf" tanks hunting any enemy unit that dares to escape on the periphery. Whether it is a human or a tank, they have turned into ashes in the gorgeous fireworks.

The tank company where Li Weigang is located has ten tanks, and there are only four "Bear" i-type main battle tanks, one of which is Li Weigang's company commander tank. The rest are Gray Wolf ii light tanks, which are responsible for flanking raid missions.

According to the armored structure of the Chinese army, a tank company has 40 people, a total of 10 tanks, divided into 3 platoons. One platoon has 3 platoons, so there are 9 combat tanks. Another one is called "Ten Vehicles" for the company commander. In this way, it is divided into one row, two rows, three rows, and ten cars.

All the tanks and vehicles are directly under the company and share a logistics support system with the entire armored battalion. If there is a failure during combat, the repair team must be called to follow up to damage the damaged parts, or use a large trailer to pull the faulty tanks that are difficult to repair on the spot back.

Commanding the remaining nine tanks, Li Weigang wandered around the Japanese army's garrison, looking for opportunities. In terms of armor tactics, the Chinese army led the entire world. After all, Zhong Yang, a senior executive, has been promoting the grouping and maturity of the armored forces behind the scenes, rather than being a vassal of infantry.

In this space and time, the rest of the countries are more or less obstructed by traditional military forces. The upper leaders who are used to mastering infantry as the core of the country are unwilling to let the armored forces that are not yet familiar. Only Germany, which has suffered the shame of defeating the war, have a more germination soil for armored cluster tactics.

The gun shield of the Wind Bear tank is made of 150mm nickel-chromium manganese high-die cast steel, and the armor level in other places is much higher than that of the same type of heavy tank. The only weakness is its maneuverability. However, this so-called weakness is simply because there is no improvement in speed.

The terrible weight of fifty-seven tons is also driven by the third-generation "Verm" engine, and it also has a travel speed comparable to that of the Gray Wolf Ii type. In the wildness with fewer obstacles, it can ensure a 35-kilometer-per-hour advancement speed. In the battle of Hangzhou, the combat power of the Risky Bear I type tank became the focus of the two armies.

From the telescope, Li Weigang carefully searched for any traces that the Japanese army had already lost almost all armored vehicles, and more than 120,000 infantry troops were besieged in Hangzhou City, not far from the day of being completely annihilated.

Three bears lined up in front, and the remaining light tanks followed closely. For the Chinese tank soldiers, there were only two ways to use the tanks: advance at full speed and use half speed during shooting.

When you stop, the tank's attack accuracy will only be slightly improved, but the risk of being attacked will greatly increase. After experiencing this small-scale tank battle, Li Weigang, who was on the front line, understood the requirements in the tank combat manual more deeply.

The failure of the Japanese army was not just because of the backwardness of tank performance, but also because they were still using the tank tactics of World War I, which were simple and crude, and were only used to protect infantry, not for attack. Faced with the large-scale armored group of the Fifth Legion of the Chinese Army, they could only be crushed to pieces.

On the eve of World War II, the Japanese military always believed that the armored forces were not the decisive factor in combat, but were still the auxiliary team of infantry. In most cases, their military designers ignored the armor defense and their own maneuverability. It is estimated that the blind cats at these desks did not pay attention to the details of practical capabilities and technical maintenance.

Therefore, among all the tanks in World War II, the Japanese tanks were the most tragic. This is not intended to belittle them. It can be seen from the report of the US side.

During the 1937 war of aggression against China, the Japanese army had no formal tank tactics at all, because China was not equipped with formal threatening anti-tank weapons. When the Japanese invaders fought against the Chinese army, it turned into a nightmare for these invaders.

Among the Japanese army, infantry has always accounted for an absolute proportion. This is also related to the interests of the soldiers of the Imperial Dao faction. Their power and hope are placed on the army soldiers, and it is obvious that it does not meet their needs to withdraw more money and resources to cultivate armored troops without any practical interests.

"Company Commander, there is nothing to gain today, and the Japanese are too cowardly." Li Weigang's adjutant is a lieutenant, and he is now complaining about the ordinary days of these two days. In addition to pouring a large number of shells into the Japanese army in the first two days, the situation is much calmer.

This strange calm revealed deep despair, which was the souls of tens of thousands of people wailing. Looking at the three divisions of the Central China Expeditionary Army headquarters, Li Weigang narrowed his long and narrow eyes. Is the Legion Command fishing? It has not launched a general attack yet.

However, he was just distracted and returned to the cab in an instant, checking whether the various instruments were operating normally. He was just a captain, so how could he manage the major affairs of the Japanese soldiers? He had to take advantage of the opportunity now to kill a few more Japanese and get some interest for hundreds of thousands of unjust souls in Nanjing.

At the Legion Command, Wang Liwen was also worried about this issue. The war went very smoothly, but it also caused considerable trouble.

The remaining large Japanese troops were guarding the city of Hangzhou. They destroyed the main traffic arteries inside the city, and a large number of solid obstacles and anti-tank trenches effectively blocked the advancement of the Chinese tank troops.

This tenacious tactic of using street fighting to fight for blood and consume Wang Liwen and the headquarters in the rear were both very worried. Winning and losing are not a problem, but street fighting will inevitably lead to tragic casualties. The Japanese soldiers' fighting will is very tenacious, and the resistance will be extremely fierce.

Wang Liwen and Lin Xiang, who was an adjutant of the army's staff, discussed repeatedly, and finally decided to step up the attack on the Japanese army in Hangzhou. Even if he wanted to destroy the big fish of the remaining troops of the Central China Expeditionary Army, he had to invest enough money, otherwise how could Matsui Ishien be deceived?

The Fifth Legion must use the toughest posture to force Central China to come here to fight to the decisive battle. For the lives and safety of these tens of thousands of Japanese regular army, Matsui Ishione must rescue him, otherwise it would be a serious crime of not saving him when he returned to Japan and waited for him.

"The soldiers of the Chinese army have now retreated into Hangzhou City, trying to use the street fighting in the city to resist stubbornly until the last second. For these enemies, we can only send them back to hell with the weapons in our hands. Only there is where they should exist."

"Kill all the Japanese to regain territory" slogans and shouts echoed outside Hangzhou City. After the early battles, all the troops outside the Japanese army had been eliminated and annihilated. The remaining two divisions of the remaining enemies were defended in Changsha City, trying to use urban street fighting to give the Chinese army the greatest killing and blow.

To this end, after clearing and annihilating the Japanese troops outside the city, the Fifth Corps of the Chinese Army did not rush to directly launch an attack, but rested outside the city for three days. Within these three days, the high mobility of the Chinese Army was tested again. Each team quickly reached the designated attack area with the support of various vehicles, and quickly obtained sufficient supplies and supplements with the help of transport vehicles.

During these three days, the Chinese Air Force reconnaissance aircraft, which had obtained complete air supremacy, repeatedly reconnaissed every street and alley in the entire urban area of ​​Hangzhou, and took a large number of photos.

After a special flushing procedure, these highly realistic military photos were sent back to the command center to work overtime and print them out in large quantities and distributed to the front-line combat officers of the corresponding attacking troops.

At the same time, the reconnaissance teams of each unit tried every means to penetrate into the city for reconnaissance, but ground reconnaissance has little effect.

At 6:30 am on the 10th, the troops of the Fifth Army, which had been fully energetic and filled with ammunition, cleared the weak armed defense line outside the city after twenty minutes of artillery attack, and dispatched 40,000 infantry from four directions from north and south to launch an attack at the same time.

1. The sound of gunfire and cannon fire over the entire Hangzhou city became the melody of the landlords of this city.

Since it is a domestic city war, various heavy artillery more than 100 mm are not conducive to use in urban battles. At this time, air supremacy has become an effective firepower support to clear the heavy firepower of the Japanese army. Diving bombers roared again and again to destroy every artillery position exposed by the Japanese army, and fired every street position that needed support.

"Old Xu, there is a school in front of him. The Japanese placed sandbags and machine guns at the intersection of the street. The defense was very dense and perfect. Do you want to call the plane?" Wugu did not jump. A strong man with thick hair and black vertical squatted down and reloaded the grenade gun launcher mounted under the automatic rifle in his hand.

After urgent additions and adjustments, the system of the mechanized infantry division of the Fifth Legion did not fall behind much of its combat achievements. After a large number of recruits and reserves were supplemented, the mechanized infantry units under the Fifth Legion were quickly expanded and established, which was suitable for the huge and terrifying reserve military service system of the Hualian.

Every student over the age of 12 must receive more than four weeks of military training each year, while students over the age of 16 need to add another two weeks to six weeks of training.

Workers, farmers, and veterans who are the first choice in the reserve also need to undergo four weeks of basic military training, but the training intensity of veterans is heavier than others.

The second choice in the reserve is that each grassroots militia needs to conduct collective armed training in villages and townships during the non-busy seasons, which gives the reserve troops of each front-line unit within the Hualian a great choice and supplement rate.

"It's too late, Fei Wei, go to the roof. Use your sniper rifle to kill the firepower players in the street ahead, especially sniper to destroy those weapons." Old Xu, who was newly promoted to squad leader, observed the surrounding terrain and issued a new order.

After receiving the order, Li Jianwei didn't say much. Without saying a word, he took out his pistol and kicked open the half-covered wooden door and rushed in.

While Li Jianwei had not yet entered the combat position, Lao Xu observed the Japanese positions in front. After the previous fight, the Japanese army had a certain understanding of the weapons equipped by the Southwest Army.

The defense business was constructed very targeted. In the past, two layers were built where only one layer of sandbags were built, and the sandbags were loaded with hard granite as much as possible, which greatly improved the defense of the sandbags. It was difficult for the 15mm sniper rifle to penetrate such sandbags.

In order to defend against another single-arm grenade gun from the Chinese ground infantry unit, the Japanese army built a roof on the top of the blocking position. From the perspective of the building structure, the materials were built by the demolished houses next to it. The roof built with a mixture of wooden boards and sand and soil was extremely ugly in style.

However, the defensive grenade gun is very effective. Due to the insufficient explosion power of the grenade gun, the 38mm grenade on the ground can basically only cause very small damage. The construction area of ​​the edge of the protective roof is very close to the sandbag and extends a certain distance, which also makes it difficult for the grenade gun to penetrate into the narrow shooting port.

After testing the two "Fire Fist" rockets, everyone was disappointed to see that the Japanese blocking positions did not cause much damage, and the rocket attacking the protective top directly bounced away due to the large inclination angle of the protective top construction.

"There are only a few days, and the Japanese are learning very quickly. We will find our attack dead corner so quickly." Lao Xu muttered in a low voice. Although the enemy is inhumane, his combat quality and learning ability are indeed 1. He is worthy of being an old-fashioned force that has been fighting in Asia for decades.

"It is said that practice is the best teacher to learn. The Japanese have suffered so many losses. If they don't learn to be smarter, they will really be unable to live. No matter what, the other party is also a strong regular army. The distance is a bit far, about 200 meters. My grenade gun must be shot there, and the protruding top edge will definitely block the angle of the shot. It would be great if I could get closer."

Fei Wei was a little chattering and spoke in the local dialect of Dongguan. Lao Xu was from Guangzhou, so there was no problem in communicating, but they were not used to each other's tone.

"Squad leader, Fei Wei said that there was no way to shoot on the roof, and the roof built by the Japanese blocked the view." The soldiers who went up the roof with Li Jianwei opened the window and loudly notified them of the difficulties they encountered.

"The damn Japanese have really become a correspondent, calling for support from nearby planes or tanks. I don't believe that I can't pry this turtle shell." Seeing that the infantry squad leader Xu had no choice but to call for support.

"Wait, Lao Xu, I have a way." Yuan Legen, who had been following several people, suddenly spoke.

"Method?" I just entered the house and there were some quilts and tables. As long as we put the table down, lay the quilts on it and poured them with water, and covered them with some soil or wooden boards in the middle. I can resist the penetration of the Japanese bullets."

Yuan Legen is a recruit, but he is smart and blushed when he said this, but he insisted on giving advice.

"Are you sure?" No one will jump.

"No, but I think I can give it a try."

"Okay, let's try it, you two, and Dagen make this thing."

Soon, a local tank appeared in front of everyone, and put the thing in a place where the Japanese machine gun could shoot. The Japanese immediately attracted the red object with a big joy on it, and a series of bullets slammed on the wet quilt.

"Dagen, you have a lot of tricks, it's effective." Li Jianwei happily raised his thumbs at Yuan Legen when he saw that the bullet did not penetrate the simple defense object.

"Hehe, it was made up." After seeing this, Yuan Legen blushed even more and scratched the back of his head shyly.

"No matter whether it is done or not, as long as it is effective, it is a good idea. Fei Wei, it's your turn to perform and be careful. "Although the team leader Xu was very happy, he still had to do it first.

"Don't worry, Old Xu can kill me, the bullet that hasn't been built yet." Fei Wei's helmet rolled over to the back of the local tank, with his movements being quick and capable, and it was obvious that he had experienced a long battle formation.

Fei Wei and Dagen were both busy with the earthen tank and advanced forward. The Japanese concentrated their firepower to shoot at the earthen tank.

"Firepower Cover" Since the Japanese's firepower was concentrated on the earthen tank, the pressure suffered by others was immediately reduced a lot. Lao Xu hurriedly asked the soldiers in the squad to fire quickly to suppress the opponent's firepower.

For a moment, the Japanese sandbags and earthen tanks became the focus areas for both sides to shoot.

Just as both sides were having fun shooting, behind a small hole the size of a fist on the wooden wall panel of a shop next to it, a sniper rifle was stretching out a little bit of the barrel and leaning against the hole. Li Jianwei set the center of the cross on the head of a Japanese man who was shooting wildly through a six-fold optical scope.

Gently pull the trigger, the trigger, which has been slowly accumulating force, broke through the limit of pressure, succumbed to external force and released the death needle that has been blocking the ground. Ignition, exploded, and driven by the plasticized rubber-based launcher, the six-mm ship-shaped warhead flew out of the barrel along the rotational force and thrust imparted by the six rifles. The initial speed of 762 meters per second made it quickly pass through the air full of smoke and hit its target.

The skull is very hard, and the brass on the outer layer of the bullet is somewhat deformed by the impact, but no matter how hard it is, it is not as hard as the steel core wrapped in brass. When the skull succumbs to external force and breaks it, the rotational force imparted by the six rifles begins to flip the bullet inside.

The released impact force causes a cavity to form around the bullet, and the generation of the cavity also instantly increases the pressure in the head and the deformed bullet continues to flip forward, using the remaining kinetic energy to smash the next layer of skull again. The cavity just generated causes the pressure in the skull to explode along with this force, splashing out with red and white objects.

The target seen in the scope was beaten like a rotten watermelon-like head. Li Jianwei suddenly felt this feeling very good. He hid in a place where others secretly shot the gun. He enjoyed the process of seeing the target being hit and spurted blood and brain matter in the scope, which made him feel happy to achieve.

Pushing a bullet lightly, the process does not make any impact sounds under the gun parts in close cooperation with sliding. Each machine is smoothly operated along the force given by Chen Kaicong. The tight and lubricating bite represents the perfect embodiment of the firearm metal processing technology and minimizes the wear and sound caused by collisions between parts as much as possible.

Although this sniper rifle is a new gun, and Li Jianwei has just received it not long ago. But he really felt that this sniper rifle was as if he had known each other for a long time, and the first contact between the two sides gave a feeling of inseparable.

Li Jianwei likes the simple and smooth appearance of this sniper rifle, comfortable grip and cheek fit, and accurate hit rate and light and smooth parts make Li Jianwei deeply love this sniper rifle.

The sniper rifle also likes Li Jianwei's gentle and flexible push and pulling and delicate care. The first time the two sides cooperated to shoot, they burst out with amazing hit accuracy.

"It's another headshot. This guy is more and more fond of blowing other people's heads." Old Xu whispered Chen Kaicong in his heart, but no matter how he shot, as long as he could kill the Japanese, he would be a good gun.

The deaths of three consecutive machine gun shooters made the firepower at this intersection suddenly weakened. At this time, another infantry soldier in the squad took this opportunity to quickly approach the distance from the direct shot of the grenade gun, and under the cover of his teammates, he quickly fired a grenade towards the narrow shooting port.

I saw this 38mm grenade pass through the shooting port of more than 30 centimeters without bias. Although the explosion energy was not large, it was well utilized in the narrow space. After spraying a large amount of dust from the explosion from the inside out, the blocking point lost its sound.

After succeeding in the first blow, Lao Xu did not rush to lead the soldiers to advance, but waited for the team members to fire two grenades into it again before launching an attack. The Japanese are now very desperate and will retaliate as long as they don’t die. Faced with such a fierce enemy, the most important thing is.

"I'll go and come again." Li Jianwei, who passed through the next street intersection and was suppressed by a string of bullets, said in great depression.

"Call support, this is too slow to fight." Old Xu was also angry by this slow process.

"Call the tank? The Japanese have set up a large number of obstacles on all streets, and the tanks cannot enter."

"Then call the Air Force."

After waiting for the correspondent to follow up with a box communicator on his back, Lao Xu quickly called the communication command center responsible for coordinating the attack and called for air support. Faced with the enemy's strong firepower point, Lao Xu was unwilling to let the team members fill in the life.

"Headquarters, I am the 16th squad directly under the 287th Company of the Fifth Army. I am the 16th squad directly under the 287th Company of the Fifth Army. We met a turtle shell at the intersection of Laosong Road and asked for support from the Armored Flying Cone."

"The headquarters has received the 16th squad directly under the 287th Company of the Fifth Corps. The headquarters has received your request. Please wait a little." After the coordinator of the Communications Command Center found the marked target south of Hangzhou on the map, he immediately called the air-ground dive bomber;

"Pelicans 8, please fly to the South District to support immediately"

"Pelican 8 received it. Please identify the target of attack." A dive bomber hovering in the air waiting for the attack order and the target left the formation and rushed towards the predetermined target.

"The 16th squad directly under the 287th Company of the Fifth Legion, the armor-breaking cone has rushed to you, please mark the target of the attack."
To be continued...
