The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 1041 Destruction of the Japanese Chariot Squadron
It was surrounded on three sides.

Seeing that the roundabout attack on the two flanks was going well, in order to cooperate with the attack on the two flanks, the old devil Xiyuan also gave the order to attack from the front at the same time.

The number of tanks and armored vehicles owned by the two tank squadrons of the Japanese army is about four times that of the Eighth Route Army.

In such a situation, no matter who judges from common sense, the Eighth Route Army cannot be the opponent of the devil's armored forces.

Shaozuo Xiyuan looked at the situation through the binoculars. He even expected that when he found himself surrounded by three sides, the Eighth Route Army troops would show panic and helplessness.

At least, Xiyuan believed that if he were replaced by the commander of the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side, facing this situation, he would definitely choose to retreat subconsciously.

For this reason, Xiyuan stared at the situation of the Eighth Route Army troops in the central area of ​​the ranch.

However, the following facts made him a little puzzled.

When he secretly dispatched two lines of chariot units from a farther route, and with the help of some rolling hills to cover their sight, they detoured past the two lines of tanks silently, crossed the hills, and appeared in the sight of the enemy's Eighth Route Army.

He looked through the binoculars and found no panic in the enemy's Eighth Route Army troops, not even the slightest sign of retreating.

It was as if they had anticipated the two-wing attack tactics he used in Xiyuan early on.

Between the light and the flint, Xiyuan actually felt a little strange. This should not be the situation that the Eighth Route Army, surrounded by armored troops several times its own, should show.

However, the battle has reached this point.

Xiyuan's order had already been issued, and it was too late to terminate the originally planned three-sided attack strategy.

Fortunately, Shao Zuo Xiyuan got rid of the worry in his heart, and decisively commanded the frontal assault troops, followed by the chariot troops attacking on both sides, and launched the final chariot assault on the Eighth Route Army with a three-sided offensive.

boom -

The roar first exploded from the forward-attacking armored force area led by Major Xiyuan. It was the enemy's Eighth Route Army troops who took action. They really had a considerable number of anti-tank rocket launchers on hand.

The rockets fired by these bazookas are so powerful that even if they collide with the strongest front armor of the devil's [-] modified medium tank, they can directly destroy the tank.

Judging from the explosion situation, the power of the anti-tank artillery used by the enemy's Eighth Route Army seems to be more exaggerated than what was described in the intelligence information known by Major Xiyuan.

Facing the bombardment of the anti-tank artillery fire from the Eighth Route Army, they only charged less than 100 meters, and Shaozuo Xiyuan once again destroyed two Type 95 light tanks.

The arrow is already on the string, and I have to send it.

The old devil Xiyuan gritted his teeth. He personally rode the command tank behind the chariot troops and gave the order to continue the onslaught.

He would rather sacrifice a certain amount, but also wipe out this hateful Eighth Route Army armored force in one fell swoop.

With the anti-tank artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army, the situation is a bit bad, but as long as you stick to the tank units on both sides, attack the armored units of the Eighth Route Army from the side, avoid the weird Japanese tanks that have been transformed by the Eighth Route Army, and attack the armored units from the flanks. All eight chariots were destroyed.

This battle is sure to be victorious.

Thinking of this, Shao Zuo Xiyuan raised his arms in excitement and nervousness and shouted long live to charge, commanding the chariots around him and the coordinated mobile troops, and launched a desperate attack on the enemy's Eighth Route Army troops.

On the other side, facing the sudden attack of the little devil and being surrounded on three sides, the first company commander not only showed no fear in the face of danger, but also showed more excitement and excitement.

"Haha, grandma, this little devil finally started to attack!"

"Comrades, get ready for me. The old regiment leader has ordered us to wipe out this chariot unit of the devils. I patted my chest and agreed. If we can't do this, we will be ashamed when we go back." See you!"

The soldiers responded one after another, with excitement on their faces.

After waiting for so long for everyone to deploy, this little devil finally took the bait.

The two sides have completely opened up the posture of a decisive battle.

But then, this battle between the Japanese army and the Eighth Route Army, some armored units may not be able to shine in the annals of history, but it was still a wonderful and fierce battle. The side presented made the enemy's devil commander, Major Xiyuan, a little surprised.

I saw that the enemy's Eighth Route Army put almost all its firepower into frontal combat.

As for the raiding troops of the Japanese flanking flanks, Hachi on the opposite side didn't seem to care at all.

This made Master Xiyuan's heart tighten.

He has a deep understanding of the cunning of the Eighth Route Army. Could it be that there is fraud in it?
Shaozuo Xiyuan's mind was spinning fast, and he suddenly realized this. The Eighth Route Army seemed to be confident, and even ignored the roundabout attack of the chariots on both sides, and directed all the artillery fire to the frontal decisive battle.

What is the reason for this?
"Asshole, no, I'm afraid there is some trap!"

Shaozuo Xiyuan suddenly came back to his senses amidst the screams. He was instantly frightened into a cold sweat by his own vision. He was about to order the withdrawal of the attacking troops on the flanks and at the same time order to stop the frontal attack.

Exactly at this time.

Quite violent big explosions overlapped from the left and right wings of the ranch.

The explosive power was astonishing, and the movement was so loud that even a battle-tested veteran like Xi Yuan was shocked and lost his voice.

The earth-shattering explosion stirred up dust and yellow sand all over the sky, and together with it, there seemed to be Japanese armored vehicles that were torn to pieces in an instant, attacking the Eighth Route Army from both sides.

Amidst the explosion that overshadowed the world, all other sounds were covered so that they could not be heard.

Looking at the sky full of dust, mixed with broken armor all over the sky, looking at the more than 20 tanks and armored vehicles that made a surprise attack on both sides, they were completely buried on this plateau by a series of explosions in an instant.

Major Xiyuan was a little dazed and froze on the spot.

A look called despair slowly appeared on his face.

He was finally convinced that he had indeed fallen into the trick of the Eighth Route Army.

These damn Eight Routes deliberately set traps on this pasture, laying a large number of anti-tank mines on both sides of the pasture in advance, and then lured their own troops to attack from the front.

It lured him to separate two chariot troops, attack from the two wings in a detour, and then fell into the trap of eight routes.

The actual situation is indeed the case.

As the Captain said before the battle:
"The place we chose is a pasture. There are relatively high hills on the two flanks, and the direction of the frontal battle can be seen at a glance.

If I were the devil commander and wanted to destroy the opponent's enemy in a confrontation in this terrain, it would be the best way to divide the troops from the two flanks and attack in a detour.

It's just that his son of a bitch didn't think about it carefully, are we that stupid?

Will he choose such a place where they can easily be attacked from both wings to fight him?

Hey, we have already laid anti-tank mines on the flanks in advance, just waiting for the devil's tanks to fall in by themselves! "

Then a cadre asked: "Company commander, what if the devil didn't follow our plan and attacked from the flanks and fell into our minefield?"

The company commander said with a smile: "Then it depends on whether the commander of the little devil is an idiot or not.

If he can really see our trap, we will admit it, and we will retreat while fighting. We have an anti-tank blower (bazooka) on hand. If this devil really dares to chase too close, we will teach them every minute be human! "

Results prove:

According to the standards of a company commander, the old devil Xiyuan belongs to the stupid category.

So stupidly, according to the routine of the company commander, two lines of surprise tank troops were separated, and they made a surprise attack from both sides. As a result, after crossing the high hill, they directly plunged into the anti-tank minefield planted by the soldiers here.

This is the absolute nemesis of tanks. Devil's tanks have strong mobility, strong defense, and powerful firepower.

If it is a frontal battle, even if the soldiers have all kinds of anti-tank artillery against the devil's tanks, it is not easy to destroy all the devil's tanks.

But if the devil's tank can be lured into the ambush trap set in advance.

Such as anti-tank minefields.

The devil's tank basically had no way to run.

... During the charge, the tanks and armored vehicles of the devils attacking on both sides opened up at full speed. It never occurred to me that after these damned Eight Routes fled all the way to this point, they were clearly chasing under their noses, but they were still ahead of schedule. A trap is set here.

The tanks leading the left and right wings plunged into the minefield without warning.

After two rounds of desperate explosions, the four chariot squadrons sent by Major Xiyuan on the flanks, nearly 30 tanks and armored vehicles, were destroyed in an instant by more than [-]%.

The remaining few armored vehicles and Type 95 light tanks left behind stood alone on a blue plateau.

The huge shock wave from the explosion almost knocked these vehicles into the air.

The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army in the middle of the ranch happily enjoyed the feast of a wave of landmine bombers and armored troops.

"it is good!"

Some soldiers applauded.

This is why the company commander dared to directly ignore the raids of the Japanese tank units on the flanks, and put all the combat focus on the frontal decisive battle.

Amidst the explosion, when the little devils on the opposite side were in shock and unable to regain their senses, the company commander also issued an order to attack at the same time.

If the tiger turns back, its life is necessary!
The soldiers immediately launched various armored vehicles, tanks, and modified chariots, and rushed towards the chariot troops of the devils who were also rushing forward.

The Eighth Route Army added anti-gun devices, and the advantages of various modified tanks with weird appearance but greatly improved defensive performance were once again revealed.

The two sides drove towards each other, and amidst the artillery fire, whether it was a Type [-] light tank or a [-] modified medium tank, once the tanks of the Devil's side were hit by the anti-tank artillery of the Eighth Route Army, even if they were not blown up on the spot , will be seriously damaged.

On the other hand, the Eighth Route Army.

The devil's shells bombarded the extended anti-gun armor of the modified tanks and armored vehicles of the Eighth Route Army soldiers, often failing to achieve effective strike effects.

Unless the devil's shells can turn, turn to the flanks of the soldiers' chariots, or bombard the rear armor of the chariot, or the weak bottom armor.

Just thinking about it is unlikely.

It's just that some shells happened to pass through the cracks of the anti-gun device protruding from the tank, causing certain damage to the tank.

This is because this damage is almost negligible compared to the heavy casualties of the devil's chariot troops.

... In an instant, nearly 2/3 of a squadron of medium tanks and a squadron of light tanks were destroyed.

After recovering from the shock of the severe destruction of the chariot squadrons on both flanks, Xiyuan faced the frontal attack from the Eighth Route Army.

He couldn't care less about hesitation, let alone the dignity and glory of a soldier, so he hurriedly gave the order to retreat.

Just like that, a rather funny side appeared on the battlefield. The chariot troops that were originally galloping towards each other were about to collide with each other.

As a result, they were invincible during the pursuit all the way. When the flying and trekking devil chariot troops were in the middle of the impact, all the tanks and armored vehicles looked like soldiers fleeing from the desert. They turned their heads in a hurry, and then panicked in the direction they came from. Withdrew back.

The roles of the two sides were reversed in an instant.

The original pursuer is now a fugitive, and the original fugitive is now a pursuer.

Shao Zuo Xiyuan felt wronged in his heart!

After chasing for tens of kilometers all the way, not to mention the small armored unit of the damn Eighth Route Army, my own team was almost wiped out.

Almost all the chariots were blown up.

Whether he can escape these eight-way pursuit smoothly is still a problem.

Balu's cunning once again refreshed his cognition. These damned Balu clearly did it on purpose, setting traps here in advance, and luring him here all the way.

Major Xiyuan, who fled in a hurry, didn't care about the dignity of the imperial soldiers at the moment. On the way to escape, he hurriedly sent a call for help to the nearby armored troops.

The two medium-sized armored squadrons of the Japanese army received the news and rushed to reinforce them.

One of the devil squadron leaders was still wondering.

"Didn't Your Excellency, Major, go after a small armored unit of the Eighth Route Army? Why did you suddenly start asking for help? Could it be that you bumped into the main armored unit of the Eighth Route Army by accident?"

When the two sides met from a distance, they noticed through the binoculars that the Eighth Route Army team chasing behind Shaozuo Xiyuan only had a dozen chariots.

As for the pursued Shaozuo Xiyuan and his party, who had almost lost their helmets and armor, there were only a dozen remaining tanks and armored vehicles left.

The squadron leaders of the two devils who came for reinforcements also had evil looks on their faces.

What is the situation?
Could it be that the main force of the Eight Route Armor is in the rear?
"Retreat, all vehicles retreat immediately, stop chasing!"

Seeing the two chariot troops coming for reinforcements from the devils, the first company commander decisively issued an order to stop the pursuit, and then led the troops to retreat quickly.

After quickly cleaning the battlefield and seizing all the confiscated materials, the first company commander led the soldiers to quickly camouflage the chariot, and went to the designated area to hide temporarily according to the plan.

On the other side, Shao Zuo Xiyuan, who joined the reinforcements, was disgraced and full of grievances, telling how he fell into the trap of the Eighth Route Army.

The captains of the two devil squadrons were speechless. Major Xiyuan almost ruined the two chariot squadrons this time, and military punishment may be indispensable.

The sky is still blue, with hardly any clouds in sight.
Soon after, the roar of the devil's fighter jets gradually came out.

The fighters and bombers of the devils called by Xiyuan and other devils searched for the Eighth Route Army armored unit that severely damaged Xiyuan...
