Chapter 1486
No wonder Chen Songyong was surprised. They already knew that the devil's attack was focused on Taiyuan instead of Jiulian town, so why did they transfer the independent regiment, the only unit equipped with anti-tank missiles, to Jiulian town instead of Taiyuan!
You must know that the "Sherman" tanks of the Eighth Route Army are all in Jiulian Township, and the tanks in Taiyuan are only kept by the devils for repairs. The Eighth Route Army captured a dozen of them, only three of which were Type 97, and the others were all unbearable. Type 95 is used.

What if the devils come to attack Taiyuan with a few "Tiger" vehicles?Or what if we attack Niangziguan when we turn around?
"Don't worry!" Wang Xuexin said: "'Tiger Type' will not appear in Taiyuan, it will only be used in Jiulian town, so anti-tank missiles are more suitable for use there!"

"Why is the leader so sure?" Chen Songyong asked.

"This is a siege battle!" Wang Xuexin replied: "Taiyuan's city wall is not like that of Jiulian Town, where a large area collapses when a tank hits it! For a siege, a 'Tiger' 88MM anti-tank can How much better than a cannon? It is better to bring a few more cannons with a 'Tiger'!"

Chen Songyong let out an "oh" and nodded in doubt.

No wonder Chen Songyong couldn't believe it. According to common sense, tanks don't need "belts". Not only do they not need "belts", they can usually load some things. Things like food... This weight is nothing to the tank. At the same time, the materials carried will not be destroyed and will not affect the tank's operations. Use as much capacity as you can.

But "Tiger" is different.

Once the "Tiger Type" is activated, at least one or two companies of support troops are required to follow it, otherwise it cannot be guaranteed to fight... The "Tiger Type" is heavy, so special scouts must be assigned to explore roads, terrain, and bridges. Otherwise, if you are not careful, you will get stuck in the road and cannot get out or collapse after getting on the bridge.

In addition, a repair and maintenance team should be assigned to the "Tiger". Every tens of kilometers is driven, a small warranty is required, and a major warranty is required for more than a hundred kilometers. If cracks are found, the tracks must be replaced.

Therefore, it would not be cost-effective for the devils to assign only a few "Tigers" to fight in the direction of Taiyuan... Ten "Tigers" need a survey team and maintenance team, and one "Tiger" is also needed, so the It will cause a lot of waste.

Chen Songyong didn't know this, he only thought about the thick armor of the "Tiger" and the power of such a long range. If two vehicles come, just swing them outside the city, and they will be almost invincible.

Wang Xuexin believes that if the devil will move the "Tiger Style" to Taiyuan to attack Taiyuan, then Naozaburo Okabe is not worthy to be his opponent.

Naozaburo Okabe did not intend to put the "Tiger Style" on the Taiyuan battlefield.

At this time, the Devils already had two new "Tigers" from the factory, but Naozaburo Okabe still arranged them in the direction of Jiulian Town.

In addition to those reasons considered by Wang Xuexin, there is another point that Naozaburo Okabe has great confidence in the imperial artillery, to be precise, he has great confidence in the artillery detection radar... He believes that with the help of the artillery detection radar, the Imperial Army's The artillery can definitely suppress the Eighth Route Army artillery in an all-round way, so there is no difference between the "Tiger Type" and the 97 Type.

The existence of "Tiger" is mainly for the imperial army to resist the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army.

If the enemy had no artillery fire, wouldn't the "Tiger" in Taiyuan be superfluous?
Naozaburo Okabe has visited the artillery detection radar more than once, and every time he goes to see the artillery detection radar, he sighs: "It is simply a work of nature! Although the parts are not complicated, they can be produced together It’s incredible to come up with something so complicated that even our scientists can’t understand it! The Eighth Route Army is much stronger than we imagined!”

However, after praising the Eighth Route Army, Okabe Naozaburo would often say proudly: "The Eighth Route Army, I'm afraid they don't know that they will be defeated by their own equipment!"

Then Naozaburo Okabe got news from the intelligence department that the independent regiment after the break was transferred back to the defense of Jiulian City. At this time, he was completely relieved, because it meant that the Eighth Route Army had been fooled, and they focused all their attention on In the direction of Jiulian City.

Naozaburo Okabe never thought that it was himself who was fooled.

Three days later, the battle started in Jiulian town.

Needless to say why the fight started in Jiulian Town, the devil not only hoped that the Eighth Route Army would focus on Jiulian Town, but also hoped that the Eighth Route Army could transfer its troops from Taiyuan to Jiulian Town for reinforcements.

Therefore, the devils started to fight with great momentum:

The Devils invested more than [-] "Feiyan" fighters in the first batch, and they took off from Duolun County.

This is the strength accumulated by the devils during this period. They opened up an airport in Duolun County and transported fuel and ammunition to the airport by train to prepare for combat.

In this way, the Devil's "Flying Swallow" fighter has more advantages in range.

The Eighth Route Army had only thirty or so fighter planes in the direction of Zhangjiakou, so the devils had advantages in range and numbers, and the fighter planes that became devils had the upper hand over Jiulian town.

Naozaburo Okabe thinks this way:

The Eighth Route Army dug anti-tank trenches outside Jiulian Township and there are rocket launchers... It is still possible for this thing to penetrate the side and rear armor of the "Tiger" at close range. "Tiger" caused a lot of trouble.

If the "Flying Swallow" fighter can be used to seize air supremacy, can the "Tiger" be put into battle during the day?

Only in this way can the safety of the "Tiger" be guaranteed and the advantages of the "Tiger"'s long range can be played at the same time, right?

The battle situation was indeed as Okabe Naozaburo imagined, the devils successfully obtained the air supremacy of Jiulian towns.

In fact, part of this air supremacy was deliberately surrendered by Wang Xuexin.

As long as Wang Xuexin is willing, he can transfer an air force to reinforce Zhangjiakou to regain air supremacy.

But he didn't do this, because he knew that even if Jiulian Township didn't have air supremacy, it wouldn't be a big problem.

Then the devil's tanks became arrogant, and the "tiger" tanks lined up majestically one kilometer away, blasting the city with their 88mm tank guns... From the devil's point of view, the Eighth Route Army no longer had any equipment It can threaten their "tiger style", so this battle is a crushing one in terms of strength.

Li Yunlong wanted to bring up the anti-tank missile several times, but he suppressed the idea abruptly.

"Put it closer and hit again!" Li Yunlong gritted his teeth and said, "Although the hit rate for one kilometer is high, this Iron King Bay will run away as soon as he turns around. It will be difficult to fight again! We will beat this guy once and for all!"
