Chapter 490: 2 tank armies?

() Lin Yi has never been a master of peace. When he was chasing the Soviet army back then, if the higher-ups hadn't forcibly ordered to stop the pursuit, it is estimated that Lin Yi would have led his squad to chase directly to Lesosibirsk in one go.

However, after stopping the pursuit, Lin Yi has never been idle. Apart from training the troops every day, he is wondering how to fight this battle in the future?Although he is only a squad leader, he still has the heart of the battalion commander and even the regiment commander. In the words of later generations, he is simply a war madman.

Although it was late with the Ninth Army, it didn't have any impact on Lin Yi's fighting confidence. Instead, it made him more and more eager to fight.

After returning to the Fifth Army, after two days of simple adjustments, Lin Yi led his squad on the road of investigation, but this time, Lin Yi did not intend to go back, since he had already discovered the Soviet army. Then their reconnaissance mission will be changed to a tracking mission, to observe the movement of the Soviet army at all times, and report their position to the large troops behind.

"This is the rhythm of the attack. Zhukov actually transferred so many troops. It's just a small Lesosibirsk, and there is a river as a cover. It doesn't take so many troops to defend. Take the situation here It was reported to the higher authorities that the Soviet army’s strength in Lesosibirsk has increased significantly, and a counterattack may be launched.”

Lin Yi observed the surrounding terrain through the telescope, and ordered in a low voice.

When they gave up their pursuit earlier, they were not far from here, only a distance of ten or twenty miles, and there was also a river in front of them, which was a branch of the No. [-] River. The wide river can indeed serve as an obstacle to the advance of the North Army Group.

Moreover, although this river is not wide, its depth is not shallow either. Although it is shallower than No. [-] River, if the infantry wants to wade directly across the river, don't even think about it, unless it is the Marine Corps, you can Swimming directly, the landlubbers of the Army must build pontoon bridges or pass other bridges in the surrounding area if they want to cross the river.

At the beginning, after the Soviet army escaped across the river, they immediately blew up the original bridges. Later, after seeing that the Fifth Army did not chase after it, but stationed at a place more than 100 miles away, Zhukov did this. Orders to prepare for repairs to bombed bridges.

Despite this, while the Soviet army was repairing the bridge, it also placed enough explosives on the newly repaired bridge to blow it up. Once the Soviet offensive was blocked, or the Fifth Army counterattacked, they would retreat before the troops retreated. After crossing the river, or blowing up the bridge while the Fifth Army is crossing the river.

And hope to use this to stop the pace of the Fifth Army's counter-offensive. Although doing so may seem a bit prestige to others and destroy one's own ambitions, there is no way. Although Zhukov boldly formulated a counter-offensive plan, he took very conservative measures in some details. scheme.

Although Zhukov is known as the firefighter of the Soviet Union, this firefighter is not omnipotent. When commanding an armored group to fight, Zhukov can naturally exert [-]% of his power, but in infantry combat, this is not enough. up for debate.

However, judging from the previous battle of Irkutsk, Zhukov's level of commanding infantry operations without armored troops needs to be improved.However, this time there was also a problem with the intelligence of the Fifth Army. Zhukov was originally an expert in armored combat, but there were not a large number of Soviet armored troops in the first battle.

Regarding this point, they attribute it to Zhukov's order in the face of danger, and the armored army has not had time to deploy in the future, but after two weeks of truce, it stands to reason that the armored army should arrive at the front line even if they walk for an hour and rest for an hour.

However, according to the investigation situation in all directions, they did not find any large-scale armored clusters. This is also where the Fifth Army is more entangled. There are many mountains in the central and eastern regions of the Soviet Union. In addition, there are jungles. limited.

But because it is unclear where the armored troops of the Soviet army are, the armored troops of the Fifth Army did not dare to deploy randomly. In case the armored troops of the Soviet army suddenly appeared at that time, the small-scale ones would be easy to deal with, Bazooka It is enough to deal with it, but once a large-scale enemy armor group appears, then the bazooka is obviously not enough.

Moreover, according to the information obtained by the intelligence agency from within the Soviet Union, perhaps stimulated by the Chinese Empire, the t34 tanks that the Soviet Union had just begun mass production were upgraded and modified based on the t3485 tanks of the Chinese Empire.

Not only the caliber of the main gun was increased, and the original 37 guns were lost, but even the protective armor was adjusted, and the most surprising thing was that even the engine was changed.In other words, after the Soviet Union's t34 upgraded version is mass-produced, the armored group of the Chinese Empire will no longer have an advantage.

Because the performance of the upgraded version of the Soviet Union's t34 is basically the same as that of the Chinese Empire. You must know that the former Soviet Union has no objects to imitate. From the appearance design to other aspects, you need to study it yourself. Know at a glance where improvement is needed?How can it be improved?

And what about the new tanks of the Chinese Empire at this time?It is still in difficult labor, the exterior design, interior design, transmission, and equipped weapons have been designed for about half a year, and the only problem is still stuck on the engine.

Of course, it doesn't mean that they don't have an engine to use, there is, but this engine is a bit fuel-intensive. After installing it, a tank full of fuel can only travel more than 200 kilometers. Although it has speed and everything, but this The itinerary is really messed up, only less than a hundred kilometers longer than the German Panzer IV.

Everyone knows that when tanks are fighting, they are basically surprise attacks. It doesn't matter if they are fighting for three or four hundred kilometers.

With the lengthening of the combat distance, the replenishment time of fuel is getting longer and longer. This is a problem that needs to be solved. Now the fuel used by the North Army Group is all transported from the northeast, pulled over by train, and then relying on oil. Car to pull.

When it's time to fight, who has a few days to wait for you to pull fuel?But after improvements, the range of the new tank has been increased to about [-] kilometers, which is barely enough, but what is even more painful than before is that the speed of the tank has slowed down a lot, and it is simply a target for people to drive up to fight of.

But when it comes to this new tank, a lot of topics can be found out. Like other equipment, the shape design is all done by Su Dao, and about this tank, Su Dao also turned it into four different things.

Obviously I want to be more advanced, but the tragic new tank, after Su Dao, the body of the Type 69 main battle tank is equipped with dual anti-reactive armor, that is, a layer of explosives is installed on the outside of the tank. When shelling, the explosives on the periphery will explode, destroying the power of the opponent's armored projectiles.

After countless tests, the shape and configuration of the new armor had been finalized half a year ago, but there was a problem with the engine, so the production project of the new tank was temporarily put on hold.

If after the Soviet army is equipped with the t34 upgraded tank, there is still no new progress in the new tanks of the Chinese Empire, then Su Dao will be very distressed. In addition to exchanging some other tanks, use the tanks independently developed and manufactured The idea of ​​going to war is about to go to waste. Most importantly, Su Dao can no longer explain the source of these tanks.

Since falling out with the family, Su Dao has rarely used the atlas, and now he makes all the equipment for the troops by himself.

'Buzz...'

Suddenly, Lin Yi felt that the ground seemed to be trembling, and occasionally he could hear the low roar of some engines. Lin Yi couldn't help frowning, and quickly fell on the ground, pressing his ears to the ground to listen.

Soon, Lin Yi's forehead wrinkled into a line, tank.I really came up with whatever I wanted, just thinking about the situation on the Soviet side, tanks appeared here.

Lin Yi is no stranger to tanks. When they were training, they even specially recruited tanks for them to contact. The main purpose was to understand the weak positions of the tanks so that they could attack them. distance and quantity.

Although this skill has basically never been used after entering the battlefield, it does not mean that Lin Yi has lost this skill.

On the contrary, with this basically unused skill, Lin Yi quickly judged the approximate number and distance of the Soviet tanks, but before seeing it with his own eyes, Lin Yi still had a skeptical attitude, but there are dense trees here. , it was difficult to see the situation at a long distance, and the tank seemed to be coming towards them, so with the help of a soldier, Lin Yi directly climbed up a big tree next to him, hiding his body After that, Lin Yi began to raise the binoculars to observe the surrounding situation.

Half an hour later, the ground stopped trembling, but Lin Yi's heart kept trembling. This scene was really spectacular. There were nearly [-] tanks parked in the Soviet army base several kilometers in front of them. Together with them, there are hundreds of various artillery pieces, and nearly a hundred trucks, most of which are oil trucks.

Judging from the current Soviet armored forces, there were two full tank armies standing in front of Lin Yi, but this was not what surprised Lin Yi the most. What Lin Yi couldn't believe the most was that this Of the 300 tanks, 3485 were Soviet tanks he had seen before, and the other [-] looked infinitely similar to their t[-] tanks.

"Hurry up and report to your superiors. We have discovered the Soviet armored units of the two armies, among which there are about two hundred tanks that look very similar to our T34."

Lin Yi didn't have time to think about it, and directly ordered the soldiers hiding under the tree to report to their superiors.

This news was really important to them, and Lin Yi was also very surprised. The terrain here is not suitable for group armored combat at all. Why did the Soviet army send so many tanks here? (To be continued.)
