Opening game, American Tycoon

Chapter 1448 Tank, where is our tank (first update, please subscribe)
No matter how the situation changes, for people on the battlefield, they don't think about what decisions the big shots will make.What they consider is very simple, nothing more than life or death.

Life and death on the battlefield are often just a moment.

The snow reflects the sun, which is particularly dazzling.And the dots of bright red in the snow are particularly eye-catching against the white snow.

The corpses were scattered in the snow, like dead wood, just scattered there, no one asked.

At one end of the snow field, American soldiers in green and khaki military uniforms were moving in the snow. They used picks to dig hard frozen soil to expand trenches, move logs to reinforce fortifications, and build fortifications.A fortification in the woods is smoking.There are mountains of shells piled up in the clearing, and the copper shells glisten in the sun—from small 3-inch shells to 105mm shells, with black-painted warheads glowing with death.Boxes of ammunition are placed like this.In the ice and snow, a blown-up cannon was just lying on its seat, its barrel had been blown up.On the nearby ice field several dead horses had been cut up to their bones, and for soldiers it was a delicacy on the battlefield.

The sky was blue without a cloud, and the sun was shining brightly.In the distance is a dense forest covered with heavy snow.At this moment, there was a "chirp" sound in the air.

"Bombardment!"

The people who were busy at first raised their backs one after another, and when the people were crawling around in the trench, the shells fell.From time to time, the explosion of the mortar would send up bunches of snow-white mixed with black smoke clusters in the snow, and the explosion smoke clusters would fall silently like this.

During the explosion, no one noticed that there were some white figures wriggling in the snow.A few minutes later, with a burst of gunfire, the battle started again this morning.

"boom!"

In the violent explosion, the permafrost was blown into the sky. In the snow, dozens of white dots could be seen struggling to move. The knee-deep snow made their steps very clumsy, whistling. In the rain of bullets, the attacking soldiers kept falling.

A few minutes later, the attack stopped, and the snow was covered in bright red.There were more dead wood-like corpses in the snow.

In this icy battlefield, no one seems to care about all this.

"..."

Staring at the patches of red in the snow, Lin Dong's face looked very ugly. A month ago, the heavy snow that arrived as scheduled swept the entire Oregon. The knee-deep snow not only affected the logistics, but also affected the It's time for the troops to attack.

Attacking in the snow, the clumsy steps will turn the soldiers into targets in the snow. Even if they put on sheets and use white sheets as camouflage, it is just to shorten the distance.

"No way, Battalion Commander, it's hard to say whether the American position can be defeated if the fight continues like this. The casualties of the brothers will definitely only increase."

Deputy Battalion Commander Sun Tiantao complained while grabbing a handful of snow.

"The snow is knee-deep. Even if the brothers want to run, they can't run. How can we charge in such thick snow..."

Why are there so many casualties?
To put it bluntly, it was because the snow was too deep, which affected the mobility of the troops.

"It can't go on like this."

Once again, Lin Dong thought for a while and said while observing the American defense line with a telescope.

"By the way, how about the tank unit? When will they come over?"

"come over……"

Sun Tiantao looked at the officer helplessly, and then said.

"The battle line is so big, and the entire army only has more than 100 tanks. The good steel is used wisely. When it's our turn, even the cucumber dishes will be cold."

Although there are not many tanks in the imperial army now, the officers and soldiers on the front line have long been famous for the names of tanks. They have heard many legends about tanks. , invulnerable.

There are even some battlefield legends - is it true that people are crushed to pieces?No one cares at all, but for the officers and soldiers of the Imperial Northern Army, this is not important. The important thing is that the tank belongs to them, and the tank can help them overcome the enemy's defense line.

The only problem is that there are too few tanks!

The Army of the North has nearly 100 million troops and only less than 200 tanks. The reason for this is that the empire did not prepare too much for this world war before that. On the other hand, tanks are now There are still certain problems in the application of tanks, such as traveling communication issues that have not yet been resolved, and the use of tanks in corps still only exists in theory.

"Tom, tom, tom..."

With the roar of gasoline engines, Type [-] tanks slowly rolled down from the flatbed trucks of the train. The roar of gasoline engines and the spouting of oily smoke enveloped the entire freight yard.

When more than [-] tanks were slowly assembled, the surrounding soldiers all looked at the Type [-] tanks with envy.

The Type 30 tank is the most advanced tank of the empire and the first standard tank, but similar to the first tank of the empire, it still uses a large number of auto parts, such as the power system using the Jiefang AA-[-] truck engine and transmission box, which also makes it easy to produce.

In fact, the reason why the army and navy chose this small tank weighing only 6.4 tons is because it uses a lot of auto parts and can be used in common with military vehicles. More importantly, it is not only easy to produce, but also cheap. .

Cheap is king!

"It's a pity that there are only 68 cars!"

Looking at the assembled tank regiment, Gao Mingjun said helplessly.

"If there are 300 vehicles, it would be easy to tear through Portland's defense."

When his words fell, Liu Hai, the regiment staff officer on the side, laughed.

"Regimental Commander, I heard that the base camp has placed an order for 10000 Type [-] tanks from several automobile factories. After these tanks are delivered to the troops, we will have no shortage of tanks."

The reason why the military was able to place an order for tens of thousands of tanks at a time was because of the strong industrial strength of the empire on the one hand, and on the other hand because the technology of the Type [-] tanks was very mature. Improvement, the Type [-] tank no longer has the problems of the first-generation tanks, such as chain drop and short service life of the track.

If there is a fly in the ointment, it is that the armor is too thin, the tonnage is too small, and the firepower is too weak.But in this era, such light tanks are just enough. As for any heavy tanks, it is a waste of money and raw materials. After all, for imperial tanks, they have no anti-tank missions at all, although European and American countries are also equipped with tanks , but their tank technology... is far behind the empire, and even until now they have not solved the problems of chains and other aspects.The tanks of European and American countries are essentially experimental products.

Watching the tanks assembled on standby at the freight yard.Gao Mingjun nodded silently, and then said to the chief of staff.

"The future is the future. Right now... the most important thing is that we accept the task. As we all know, tanks can defeat tanks. Now, the whole army is watching us! Can we take Portland? We are the tenth regiment of tanks. !"
