Chapter 631 Chariot Wing
A Devils anti-tank artillery squadron was wiped out by tank companies within 8 minutes. The final battle ended with several Devils fleeing on their shoulders but were shot dead by soldiers from behind.

It was right that the devils couldn't escape. From this corner, there was a straight street several hundred meters long. The devils fled for a while but were still within range of the soldiers' rifles.

"Full speed ahead!" Wang Xuexin ordered.

With this victory, he has some confidence in command.

Then under Wang Xuexin's order, an incendiary bomb hit the front to illuminate the way forward for the tank, and then the tank led the soldiers straight to the center of the city at the fastest speed.

Although there are risks in advancing at such a fast speed, such as crashing into an ambush set by the devils, and whether there are anti-tank mines ahead.

But Wang Xuexin knew that this was the time to rush straight into the enemy headquarters with the fastest speed...

Decision-making on the battlefield is sometimes not clear with theory.

For example, at this time, if you move forward slowly, you can say it is steady, and if you move fast, you can say it is aggressive.

Conversely, advancing slowly can be said to be a missed opportunity, while advancing quickly can also be said to be a clean and straight attack on Huanglong.

Therefore, command decisions are actually based on feelings, and no one can be sure whether the decision at the time is right or wrong. Often, three points depend on decision-making and seven points depend on luck.

But this time, Wang Xuexin was right again.

Because, if even the Devil's anti-tank gun squadron was unprepared and met the tank company face to face, it meant that the Devil's command did not expect the penetration speed of the Eighth Route Army tanks to be so fast.

That being the case, the devils certainly had no time to set up an ambush, and almost no time to plant anti-tank mines.

If the tank company advances slowly, it may give the devils time to prepare.

At this time, the Devil Command, Anda 23 already felt that something was wrong.

Although Anda 23 did not receive a report from the anti-tank company, as a veteran, he knew that the enemy was not far away as soon as he heard the sound of gunfire and artillery.

Then he checked the map and directions again, and cursed: "These bastards actually went straight to our army headquarters!"

Then Anda 23 did not hesitate, and asked the staff officer: "Where is our chariot?"

The staff officer replied: "Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, the chariot is preparing to fight on the East Street!"

"Transfer immediately to protect the headquarters!"

"Yes!"

Anda 23 tried to form a line of defense against the Eighth Route Army in Yuncheng.

At this time, he already knew that the tank units of the Eighth Route Army were divided into three directions to attack... The devils who were attacked reported to the headquarters by telephone and radio, and the staff marked the enemy's position on the map in due course.

Since it was impossible to block the enemy at the city gate, Anda 23 hoped to attack inside the city. His defense plan was to divide the three anti-tank guns at the east and west gates to guard three north-south streets. One and always ready to reinforce each other, supplemented by infantry and artillery coordination.

In this way, the two wings can block the attack of enemy chariots.

In the central part, the tank troops were transferred to fight the enemy. In addition, the three anti-tank guns at the north gate were also urgently transferred to the central part. They will be in a state of being divided and fighting each other... The Old North Street in the middle is the traffic center. If the Old North Street cannot be captured, mutual reinforcements must be detoured.

As long as you can last for ten, twenty, ten minutes, and wait for the troops outside the city to come back to help, then it will be time for the Eighth Route Army's chariot troops to be wiped out.

It should be said that Anda 23's plan is very reasonable.

After all, the tank unit stationed in Yuncheng has two medium tank squadrons with a total of more than 97 tanks, most of which are [-] medium tanks.

To be precise, these chariot units were not "garrisoned" in Yuncheng, but they broke down or needed maintenance during the attack on Yuncheng and fighting the Jinsui Army, so they were placed in Dongdajie to rest.

Strictly speaking, they are not under the command of Anda 23, but now that the situation is urgent, it is natural to cooperate with Yuncheng defense.

Anda 23 feels that this battle is at least [-]% sure.

Because there are more than 95 tanks in the two tank squadrons, apart from the lack of combat effectiveness of the Type 97, more than a dozen of them are Type [-].

97 Zhongzhan is a tank specially developed for the T26. They may not be able to deal with the T34, but they are not a problem against the T26.

Therefore, Anda 23 did not think it was necessary to transfer the headquarters, even if the enemy's tanks were approaching step by step.

The Devil Chariot was commanded by Tomoe Haraguchi, who was awakened by the sound of gunfire when the battle started, but no one got up.

They are not like infantry, who grab their guns at the sound of gunfire and are ready for battle.

But the chariot soldiers, especially the chariot soldiers stationed in a safe area in the city, basically don't need to worry about safety issues.

Haraguchi Chie lit a cigarette with the adjutant.

The adjutant complained: "It's really annoying. The Eighth Route Army should be attacking, right? Did they think they could take down Yuncheng? It's unbelievable!"

"Who knows?" Tomoe Haraguchi said, "The Eighth Route Army is always unexpected. Have you heard about the annihilation of the 25th Tank Regiment?"

The adjutant nodded, and replied in a low voice: "I heard that the Eighth Route Army used T34 to do it!"

In fact, the devil army also has a tradition of reporting good news but not bad news, because they think that losing a battle will affect morale, so they do everything possible to block news from the inside.

This habit is even more excessive in the country. The people in the country thought that the imperial army's victory abroad was in sight until Ying Jiang came to their door. Many people even thought that Ying Jiang was about to surrender.

However, such information is of course no secret to the soldiers of the tank troops.

Haraguchi Chie nodded, sighed, and said, "I heard that even Hans can't beat the T34 tank. If we face it one day, we must be careful!"

"Yes!" replied the adjutant.

This is actually a casual response, because this thing is not enough to just say "be careful", the equipment is at a disadvantage, and you don't know what weaknesses the opponent has... In fact, it's not just that you don't know the weaknesses. I don't know, how can I be "careful"?

Just as Haraguchi Zhijiang and the adjutant were chatting without saying a word, suddenly the messenger came to report: "Your Majesty, I heard that the tanks of the Eighth Route Army have entered the city gate!"

Haraguchi Chie was so shocked that the cigarette in his hand dropped to the ground.

Then, his first reaction was that the communications soldiers believed the rumors... Many imperial soldiers were very afraid of T34, and had psychological shadows, so they spread rumors as soon as the battle started.

He was about to scold the messenger, but the explosion sound from the south gate made him stunned.

He was familiar with that sound, it was a T26 tank gun.
