My Head of the Huaxia Expeditionary Force

Chapter 312
"What?"

how is this possible!How could the Chinese have chariots?Why do those cowards have armored units! ?

Captain Kato's face was full of doubts and shock. The successive blows made him a little dumbfounded.

No one answered his question, and the approaching roar of the engine was the best explanation.

"Captain, do we... want to retreat?"

The trembling voice of the gunner interrupted Kato's contemplation, and the latter also showed embarrassment. The opponent obviously had an advantage in numbers. At this time, the most sensible way is to retreat first and temporarily avoid the edge.

"Send orders to other vehicles to turn left and move to the enemy's flanks."

What is unexpected is that instead of ordering a retreat, Kato rushed towards the enemy instead.

"Ronda? Your Excellency, Captain, isn't this..."

"Shut up! We are the emperor's most elite fighters. The glory of the empire must not be compromised by our hands. Even if we die, we must die on the road of charge! Kill!"

Kato roared hoarsely, knowing that he might step into the abyss, but the Bushido spirit forced him to do so.

On the other hand, the bombardment in the rear is still going on, and if you just retreat like this, you will be in a dilemma, and if you expose your butt to the enemy rashly, you will be chased and beaten like a rabbit.

It's better to go all out and fight him. With the virtues of the Chinese people, even if they have good equipment, they may not be able to do it. Maybe they can use tactics to defeat them.

"Report to Commander Gao, the distance between the enemy and the enemy is 1200 meters, and request instructions."

The turret hatch of a Sherman tank was opened, and a lieutenant colonel drilled out holding a telescope, and at the same time pressed the button on the machine to report to the other end.

A reply quickly came from the machine: "Yuan Li, I'll leave all the tanks to you, let go, and kill this bunch of lifeless things!"

"Yes, sir!"

Yuan Li put down the pair of machines, and looked at the Japanese tanks coming towards them, with a cruel smile on his lips.

For this assault mission, Gaoji handed over the command of the tank to Yuan Li, and the soldiers around him were no strangers to him, after all, everyone was originally in the same unit.

The former followed Liao Mingyu's suggestion and put all the armored vehicles of the 200th Division together for use.In addition to the tank battalion of the third division, nearly a hundred tanks and tanks of various types formed a huge armored force.

Mangshi's wide flat land is enough to support a large number of steel monsters. This time, the blood of the little devils must be used to wash away the shame that the 200th Division has suffered.

"All tanks advance at full speed, and the armored destroyer immediately stops and fires!"

Six Sherman tanks took the lead in an arrow-shaped formation, followed by twelve T-26 light tanks and a large number of armored vehicles lined up.

When the two sides were 800 meters apart, ten Sdkfz37 armored destroyers equipped with 251mm anti-tank guns had stopped and opened fire on the little devil.

The shells swished away, blowing up the sky full of dust on the flat ground. Although the caliber of 37 mm is not large, if it is directly hit by the protection ability of the Japanese tank, it will still inevitably cause the car to crash. Formation spread out to avoid incoming shells.

Japan wants to take advantage of the lightness of its own tanks to attack the enemy's flanks, but they forget that Sherman and T-26 are also known for their speed, and how can they succeed when they have obvious numerical advantages.

"Stop, aim and fire!"

The distance between the two sides was 500 meters. Yuan Li took the lead in ordering all tank vehicles to stop advancing. The gunner quickly turned the turret to aim and aimed the tank barrel at the Japanese tanks that were still moving.

"Five!"

At the same time, Kato also ordered all tanks to counterattack, and the battle between the two sides officially began.

"Boom! Boom! Boom..."

On the flat ground, more than [-] tanks sprayed blazing flames at each other one after another. The shells intertwined in mid-air, sparks flew all over the place, and the harsh explosion sound of steel being penetrated and destroyed resounded through the sky.

Sherman's 75mm tank gun still has a penetration depth of 500mm at a distance of 70 meters. The thickest part of the frontal armor of the Little Devil's Type 25 medium tank is only [-]mm. There is no protection against Sherman at all. The effect is that as long as it is hit, it is basically a child with one shot, and even the armor-piercing bullets are not used.

Not to mention the Type 6 light tank, the pitiful 12-37mm armor is thinner than some armored vehicles, and a [-]mm tank gun can easily penetrate it, which is no different from paper.

Faced with the gap in firepower and protection, all Japanese tanks suffered a fatal blow.

The 57mm short-barreled artillery they are equipped with can't beat Sherman's frontal armor at all, and can only bully the T-26, which is also thin-skinned and has a low shooting angle, but the latter is more numerous and can be measured win.

Inside the Type 26 tank, the Japanese warrant officer, the commander and the gunner, was nervously aiming at the target. When an aggressive T[-] appeared in the scope, he fired immediately without hesitation.

"boom!"

"Hayaku, fast back, reload!"

The shell hit the T26, sparks flew all over the car body, the frontal armor broke instantly, and a fire seemed to ignite inside the car, and the soldiers inside hurriedly opened the top cover and tried to escape.

"Go to hell, you East Asian cowards!"

"Da da da da da..."

The machine gunner Shang Shu who made a bet to kill 50 Huaxia people actually pulled the trigger continuously at this moment, splashing bullets on the escaped Huaxia soldiers.

After a successful blow, the commander quickly asked the driver to back up, but how could the large number of tanks around make it escape so easily.

"Boom! Crack..." A 37mm artillery shell came from nowhere and hit their side armor. The shell penetrated through the steel plate and penetrated into the interior of the car body, which happened to be the position of the machine gun climbing the tree.

Without even groaning, Shangshu was cut in half by the powerful kinetic energy of the shell, internal organs and minced meat were sprayed everywhere, the cabin was also in chaos, and the mechanical components were destroyed and thick smoke filled the entire space.

"Ahem! The chariot can still move..."

boom!
Before the commander finished speaking, another shell hit, but this time... it was Sherman's 75 tank gun.

Accompanied by a huge explosion, the turret of this Type [-] tank was instantly blasted into the air, and the smoke and fire instantly engulfed everything...

The Japanese army retreated while fighting, and Kato had to admit that he was hasty this time, and his side couldn't stop the terrifying offensive at all.

In the first round of confrontation, the Japanese army lost 7 tanks, and they also damaged 200 T5s to the 26th Division.

The six Shermans were fine. The frontal armor of Xie Mantou was 51mm thick, and with a 47-degree inclination, the protection ability was equivalent to 70mm of steel armor. The 57-caliber short-barreled gun of the little devil was very Hard to do damage to it.

Although he was the younger brother of the Panthers and Tigers facing the Germans in Europe, he was bullied terribly, but when he came to Southeast Asia, he was the father of these thin-skinned cars like little devils.

Kato's thoughts are gone now, he is still careless, the entire tank brigade, together with him, only has three tanks left, and all of them are still wounded.

"Sir, the little devil is going to run away."

Seeing the three Type [-] vehicles retreating slowly, Yuan Li sneered after seeing them: "Everyone stop and start shooting!"
