Bright Sword Military System

A brutal breakout battle.

There is nothing wrong with the battle that Li Yunlong originally envisioned:
The independent regiment held 20 "Shermans" in the city, and it was difficult for the first tank brigade of the devils outside the city to break into the city. After all, most of the devils were equipped with Type 97 and Type 95 tanks. Erman" opponents, when the new first regiment and the new second regiment arrived, the battle would be almost over.

But a few more "Tigers" in the city are completely different. The independent regiment will immediately fall into the situation of being "attacked from inside and outside" by the enemy, and the "Tigers" in the city are still a big threat!
What's worse is that the devils have invested in a new type of fighter at this time...

If the devils didn't have new fighter planes, the Eighth Route Army could still rely on air cover to retreat. After all, the devil's tanks were all thin-skinned armor, and the Eighth Route Army's rocket fighters could easily tear a hole in the encirclement with a single pass of bombing.

However, the "Pull 5" of the Eighth Route Army was firmly blocked by the devil's fighter planes and fell into a bitter battle.

Others don't know what the Devil's new fighter is, but Wang Xuexin can guess based on the time that it should be the Devil's "Flying Swallow" fighter.

Compared with the "Zero War", the performance improvement of this fighter is not great. The top speed of "Zero War" is 533 kilometers per hour and the top speed of "Feiyan" is 588 kilometers per hour. There is still a gap.

But this gap has narrowed to an acceptable range:
The speed of "Zero War" is 5 kilometers per hour lower than that of "La 120", and the average difference is 2 kilometers per minute. This gap makes it almost impossible for the devil pilots to catch up with "La 5". It only takes a dozen seconds to fly out of the enemy's range, and the Devil pilot has no time to aim.

The speed difference between "Feiyan" and "La 5" is only 62 kilometers per hour, and the average difference is only 1 kilometer per minute, which gives the devils half a minute of combat time.

Although half a minute is not long, it is enough for skilled devil pilots.

More importantly, the devil's ambush point was carefully selected: Duolun County is 260 kilometers away from Zhangjiakou, almost on the edge of the "La 5" limit combat radius.

Although the range of the "Feiyan" fighter is not as good as that of the "Zero Fighter", its combat radius can reach 800 kilometers when it carries auxiliary fuel tanks. They take off from Chifeng, which is 200 kilometers away, with ease in terms of range.

Therefore, "Feiyan" used the "sticky" tactic against the Eighth Route Army fighter planes from the very beginning.

"Feiyan" is not in a hurry to seek to fight "La 5", but hovers over the two wings of the 5st Tank Brigade. Once "La 5" lowers its altitude and speed and dives to attack tanks and armored vehicles, "Feiyan" "Only attack "Pull [-]" from the rear.

This tactic made the "La 5" unable to effectively attack the devil's armored forces, and could only struggle with enemy planes in the air.

Li Yunlong glanced at the situation in the sky and knew that the independent regiment had to rely on himself... Although he couldn't understand whether the planes flying in the sky were new planes or old planes, the enemy and our planes were flying around regardless of the outcome, so of course he didn't have time to think about it. ground.

Li Yunlong immediately ordered: "The first battalion covers, and the others follow the tanks to break through!"

Although this order is simple, it shows the wisdom of Li Yunlong's command:

The first battalion is the most powerful unit in the independent regiment. They are equipped with many bazookas for attacking fortifications. It is obviously the best choice to use this unit to block the devils in the rear. Only they hold back the "tiger type" It is only possible for other troops to break through under the cover of "Sherman".

Zhang Dabiao, the battalion commander of the first battalion, answered "Yes" and immediately led the troops up... This surprised Li Yunlong. Zhang Dabiao actually launched a counterattack against the devils instead of defending on the spot?
Only after the war did Li Yunlong know that Zhang Dabiao’s choice was correct. If he wanted to hold the “Tiger Style”, he had to stay in the city, because there were houses and ruins in the city to rely on, and there was nothing outside the city. Something can stop it from destroying the "Sherman".

Therefore, Zhang Dabiao's counterattack was not actually a "counterattack", but a re-entry into the city to seize houses for cover.

This is a clever way of fighting, but it needs to be filled with the lives and blood of soldiers... The houses simply cannot withstand the "Tiger" 88MM tank guns. If it doesn't fall, it will guide the "tiger style" to blow it down.

Speaking of which, the devil's 88mm tank gun has some connections with the recalcitrant army.

The Recalcitrant Army had a close arms deal with Hans before the war. They successfully purchased a batch of 88MM anti-aircraft guns from Hans to defend the then capital Nanjing.

Needless to say what happened later, after the fall of Nanjing, the devils successfully seized 16 88 anti-aircraft guns from the recalcitrant army... These 16 anti-aircraft guns can be said to be unscathed, and fell into the hands of the devils together with the shells.

This is unbelievable, because even if there is no will to fight, there is always time to detonate these anti-aircraft guns to prevent them from falling into the hands of the devils and being used by the devils.

But the stubborn army didn't do this, which surprised even the devils.

After the capture, the devils saw that these anti-aircraft guns were even more advanced than the 75MM anti-aircraft guns used by their empire!Who said that the equipment used by China is backward?
There was nothing to think about, and these artillery pieces were immediately transported back to the mainland for imitation, so the devils had Type 99 88MM anti-aircraft guns.

This anti-aircraft gun entered service in 1939 and played a pivotal role in the air defense of World War II. At the end of the war, the devils even installed it on the Type 5 tank.

But at this time, with the "Tiger Type", it is not the turn of the Type 5 tank.

This is also one of the reasons why the devil can produce the "Tiger Type" only by importing the engine from Hans... The Type 99 anti-aircraft gun was originally a copy of Hans' 88MM anti-aircraft gun, just change it.

At this time, the muzzle of a "Tiger" gun was adjusted slightly and aimed at a two-story earthen house. With a "boom", the shell was accurately shot into the house from the window and exploded inside.

I have to say that the Devils Kwantung Army has a lot of combat experience, and they hit accurately and ruthlessly. They know that only when the shells explode in the house can they cause the greatest casualties and also cause the greatest damage to the building.

This is indeed the case. The five Eighth Route Army soldiers downstairs died on the spot... When the Type 99 tank gun fired grenades, the absolute killing radius was 15 meters, and no one could be spared from this distance.

The three soldiers of the Eighth Route Army on the upper floor were separated from each other by a layer of earthen walls, so they didn't die immediately, but after a while the house shook and the house collapsed, and the soldiers were buried in the ruins in an instant. Leaving a hand stained with blood struggling to reach out.

The "Tiger" tank continued to move forward under the cover of the devil infantry to aim at the next target...

Later, Shao Zuo Fukada seemed to realize that the purpose of the Eighth Route Army was to hold back the "Tiger Style", so he simply ordered the "Tiger Style" to push houses on both sides of the street...

Clay houses and wooden houses collapsed with the sound of tanks' "rumbling" motors, and occasionally there were a few explosions. It was the Eighth Route Army soldiers who fired grenades at the last moment hoping to blow up the tanks.

But they failed, because the "Tiger Type" rolled over the collapsed earth wall, and most of the power of the grenade was absorbed by the earth wall.
