The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

To be honest, the U.S. military in this era, apart from more powerful warships and aircraft, is backward in almost all aspects of army weapons and equipment. Even the tactical level is full of passion and low in technical content.

Not only because of the absence of war for many years, but also the fact that there is a serious lack of war training. Unlike those countries in Europe and Asia, where wars have lasted for decades or hundreds of years, a set of theories have been formed and applied to practice. A German Army General Staff It can count dozens of streets in the country.

If it were some experienced generals in China commanding this defensive battle, they would never do what Major General Smith did when they knew they were invincible.For example, the Red Party army who was chased and killed tens of thousands of miles by Chiang Kai-shek before was definitely a master at fighting a disadvantaged battle. Tactics such as "War of Annihilation" were skills that were "forced" out by millions of troops during several encirclement and suppression campaigns.

The terrain of Oahu is complex and changeable. Except for a dumbbell-shaped beachhead and flat ground in the middle, most of the places are mountains, and they are also mountains with variable heights!The main peak is more than 1000 meters away, and the highest is more than 4000 feet.

And the mountains are full of dense virgin jungles, tropical grasslands, and large areas of developed sugarcane plantations. Without war, it is definitely the best tourist attraction in the world, but if there is a war, it will definitely be a barren land!

It would have been a nightmare for the attackers if people from the Red Party had sneaked in, supported by sufficient mechanical tools and weapons "powder". After a long period of preparation, it would definitely become an attacker's nightmare!Don't say that you can't wear it in a short time, even if you give it three to five months or even longer, don't even think about cleaning it up!

But the U.S. military has no such awareness at all. They have been used to living on wheels since 20 years ago. Short-distance transportation is by car, and long-distance transportation is by plane and ship. The time for running on two legs is extremely limited, and they are better at using numbers like Zhu Jiajun. The unclear gunpowder drowned the enemy army.

but.What if the enemy doesn't engage you head-on at all?Such a large island can easily hide [-] to [-] people, and there are enough supplies, so they can't starve to death, beat them fast, kill them all, or eat them thoroughly.Hard to chew like rubber.

The U.S. military never thought that they would fight such a battle, so even though they were forced to be the defenders, they still had an offensive spirit in their bones. A madman like Smith couldn't hold back at all, and couldn't stand it after a little stimulation. This key is precious. The chariot battalion sent out.That's what really killed me! [

An armored battalion of the U.S. military has 76 tanks, including three companies of M3 Grant and one company of M3 Stuart.This is still the product of the U.S. military's own research and finalization. It will enter the army suddenly after mass production began this year, but the military is not very happy about it.

Why?They got the monkey version of the "Bayonet" tank that was resold from the four major families. It was still a greatly shrunken, fool-proof thing assembled with existing technology and materials, but it had a weight of 18 tons and a 75mm38l main gun. And up to 55mm above the main frontal armor.In particular, the monkey version of the external armor is thick, and the anti-defense ability reaches an astonishing 300mm or more!

Especially the most fucking engine with a 200-hour lifespan is a fool's play, but because of its strong horsepower, it can still drive such a large car for 2000 kilometers. It is especially suitable for the complex and humid terrain in central and southern China. In the U.S. Navy From the Marine Corps point of view, it was made for them.

Plus the same monkey version of the "Wild Badger" infantry fighting vehicle.The U.S. military was shocked to find that their main station tanks were not even comparable to other people's armored vehicles, not to mention the aggrieved taste.

So the army took the lead early on and directly disassembled and imitated this series of stuff. The weight of the resulting guy easily exceeded 26 tons, but the overall performance was much higher than their m3 Grant medium tank!Internal testing found. The "performance" is completely beyond, and even the M76, which was developed urgently this year and can mount a 4mm gun on a rotating turret, can't compare.Even more tasteless.

But American arms dealers are all backed by big consortiums. It is impossible to say that they have already started to develop them but abandoned them halfway. They want to imitate Chinese things. Their self-esteem can't stand it!

While continuing to develop and improve new medium-sized tanks, they stepped up to imitate a batch of armored vehicles such as the "Bayonet" and assigned them to two heavy armored divisions to support them first. Large-scale deployment will have to wait until their own development is successful. .

However, the U.S. military has also discovered a problem, that is, the design concept of the Chinese version of the tank and chariot is completely different, and the production process is complicated. If it is completely copied, a new production line needs to be designed, and what is even more terrible is the metallurgical formula. Use your own gasoline engine to make do, and the rest of the artillery, car body, chassis, tracks, armor, turret, etc., all need to be redone.

The four major families couldn't figure out the metallurgical formula.These compradors have limited vision, they only focus on buying and selling ready-made things. The entire production process and formula of the metallurgical factories strictly controlled by Zhu Bin are top secret. They never thought of it before, and they couldn't get it later.

This has led to the U.S. military using its own things to make do with, the weight has increased greatly, the cost has increased greatly, and the performance has weakened, which is not suitable for any calculation.

As the stuff the army got, it is natural that they give priority to equipment, and the navy has to toss it by itself.After the six divisions were compiled in a hurry, they were sorted out and sent out one by one. For example, all the armored weapons in Smith's hands still smelled of fresh butter. The potential danger was that the soldiers could "touch" Unfamiliar with limited experience!

A deadly short board!Without the baptism of battle, without actual combat verification, the undisciplined American soldiers in a purely peaceful environment encountered the most powerful enemy as soon as they came up. I have to say that this is a tragedy!

The anxious Smith didn't consider the danger at all, and issued an order, fifty or sixty m3 medium \ light tanks rushed out!

The undulating mountains and dense jungle cover the figures of both sides very well. After the smoke from the beach below is greatly absorbed and diluted by the plants, it has become very thin at the foot of the mountain, except for the armored motorcycles that are breaking through. 』The smoke from the explosion rose up, and the rest still looked lush and green!

The roar of the chariot broke this false peace. The dull roar of the engine shook the valley. The ten-ton car body crushed the rough ground where no one had walked for many years. The tracks were quickly worn out, and the body vibrated like a storm in the boat.The soldiers inside don't talk about aiming and shooting, as long as they can spit out without fainting, they are considered good players. [

Stumbling, slowly swaying out of the valley, smashing and crushing trees, the ugly upper 37mm secondary gun slowly rotated, searching for the enemy.

Without the accompanying infantry, it is impossible to move in such terrain.There was not enough time, and the second division's manpower was also greatly insufficient, so they had no choice but to make a bad move.

Stuck on the main passage up the mountain, the heading m3 75mm short-barreled main gun fixed on the car body bumped and trembled, pitching and aiming, which was clumsy and painful.Before they are ready.Ghost-like armored motorcycles rushed out of the dense forest suddenly, the sturdy car body leaped into the air under the strong power not weaker than the tank, aiming at the conspicuous target, "all" two rockets and grenade hit it!

The front main armor of the M3 Grant also has the largest 51mm, but in the years when the cannons were rampant, even the professional 37mm armor piercing could not withstand it, let alone the special anti-armor rockets!Close at hand, caught off guard.With a bang, the cannon hit the target, and the hurricane jet of high-temperature metal easily pierced the car body, and the broken steel plates inside were mixed together, killing most of the occupants in an instant. In the last shot, a cloud of turbid fireworks exploded, and it disintegrated into a pile of scrap iron!

Hurricane armored motorcycles completely depend on the constraints of the terrain, and their design is born to cross mountains and rivers.As long as it's not a complete cliff, where the beasts can go, they can!

The sound of the screaming engine overwhelmed the screams of the U.S. military, dexterously dodged left and right, avoided the dexterous artillery fire of the accompanying m3 Stuart light tank, and disappeared into the forest in a flash!

The m3 Stuart, built in the spirit of multi-turrets, fires crazily with five 5mm machine guns.Continuous rain sprayed from three directions, whizzed across the forest, immediately knocked down the dense trees, and the intermittent bombardment of the 762mm cannon shattered the thick trees.The stones blocking the road and the large plants suffered as a result, and in a blink of an eye they were as incomplete as a dog gnawed, and withered in billowing smoke and dust.

But they couldn't find any of the "ghost" motorcycles they really wanted to deal with!

In just ten minutes of fighting, more than a dozen tanks were destroyed, but no attacker was caught. Major General Smith immediately realized that he had encountered a new big trouble!Hearing the furious curses of the tank soldiers, he could imagine how difficult it would be for the clumsy tank guns to aim and shoot in the face of an enemy that disappeared in a blink of an eye.

To deal with these guys, only air force fighters are the most suitable!But does he have it now?In such a dense forest, can you find a dexterous guy who is not as tall as a person standing up?

Obviously impossible!Smith suddenly felt a sense of embarrassment. He thought about it for a while. Among the weapons in his hands, none of them seemed to be able to truly restrain the opponent. The terrain that was originally the most reliable could not stop much. Can't even deal with it, what's wrong with it!

Gritting his teeth, he waved his hand vigorously, ordering the soldiers of the two battalions to add up, to provide accompanying combat for the armored battalion, and to ask the battalion whose gap was opened in front to withdraw, as the main force to search for the enemy's tracks, and to act as an eyeliner.Their task does not require a frontal impact, they only need to shoot warning shots after spotting the enemy, and buy time for the tanks to strike, that's enough.

At this time, Smith was particularly resentful of those damned arms dealers, what kind of junk they provided for him!If the main gun of the m3 Grant can be rotated, at least it won't be impossible to aim, right?The 37mm secondary gun with a fast enough firing rate, in the case of being unable to hit directly, the fragmentation power is too small, and the opponent doesn't care at all!

More than 100 armored motorcycles have become ghosts in the jungle and mountains. Staying in place for a moment, the heavy car body is as easy to control as if it grew on their bodies, without the clumsiness in common sense at all.

Half an hour later, the entire congested pass in front of the chariot battalion was basically under attack. The infantry reinforcements in front and behind clearly marked the mountain passages. Most of them are exposed!

Smith couldn't figure out what the other party wanted to do. He thought he had a plan to set up a trap to kill his opponent, but unexpectedly, the two sides were far apart in terms of the target of the battle!

In the command center of the ocean-going fleet, a huge holographic virtual map is rapidly completing data filling.The attack routes and trajectories from the airborne troops and armored motorcycles are summarized, and some details are described from the internal and external levels. Through the impact and detection data sent back in real time by the cameras carried by each person, the passing vehicles and terrain indicators are calibrated.

The actions of Smith's Second Division exposed the rest of their own lines of action, such as the soldiers retreating from the inner perimeter, and the armored soldiers and infantry from the outer perimeter.A series of passages for people and armored units have been outlined, all added to the holographic map and regenerated, followed by a series of tactical analysis.

A new combat command was issued, and more than 100 armored motorcycles scattered in all directions, quickly cutting across the middle of the mountains in the northwest from the front, and launching a new spying attempt.The heavily armed paratroopers who were attacking and searching while attacking suddenly stopped, took a rest on the spot, adjusted and replenished, while the attack plane hovering around the periphery suddenly flapped its wings, accelerated and dived down, and quickly rushed to one by one from the ultra-low altitude. Chariot Pass!

The air defense positions all over the coastal mountains opened fire without hesitation!Their mission lies there, they can't do without fighting!

But those attack planes are sneaky!the route they traveled.Completely copied the trajectory detected by the armored motorcycle, from the low valley, close to the jungle, the sugarcane field, and the tip of the grassland, it flew quickly, broke through a few kilometers in a daze, and ruthlessly smashed the rocket and the light weight. Air Hulala sprinkled into pieces to the mixed infantry of the US military!

The anti-aircraft guns equipped with wire-proximity fuze guns all stared!In order to ensure the field of vision, they are located at relatively high places, and they have no way to deal with the flying units below the field of vision!

The anti-aircraft machine guns can be suppressed and fired, but they are within their shooting range.Our own infantry are all on display, not to mention the winding mountains and vegetation seriously blocking the line of sight, Nima really wants to fight, and it may not be possible to kill anyone in the end!

The speed of the full-speed impact attack aircraft is no less than that of professional air superiority fighters. After shooting rockets and dropping bombs with clear targets, they directly pull up the nose and run sideways against the rapidly rising mountainous loop.Don't do any hovering stays!

Behind them, the valleys with a radius of tens of miles boiled one after another!The newly replenished infantry, as well as all the detected armored vehicles, were all submerged in the earth-shattering explosion!

That overwhelming rocket.A dozen is a large area, keeping up with the bombing and blasting, almost no units can resist!Dozens of attack planes were not shot down, and they easily made a small circle back to the sea, but almost wiped out the entire Second Armored Battalion!Except for a few command vehicles of the battalion headquarters behind, the rest were lost!

Dozens of billowing fireworks rose from the valley, and Major General Smith's eyes were tearing apart as he roared.He finally understood the opponent's tactics. He really used motorcycle soldiers and paratroopers to spy on the defense, and used air strikes to destroy his own vital forces!

hateful!Terrible!

At this time, he suddenly remembered the concept that was repeatedly instilled by Japanese army instructors who spoke poor English in the training for mid- and senior-level officers secretly provided by the staff before sending out troops: "Don't compete with the Chinese army to consume your weapons head-on. You and your tactical thinking are far behind, it will only result in so-called sacrifices! The best way is to disperse and hide, turn your positions into completely concealed tunnels and caves extending in all directions, make full use of the terrain, and fight guerrillas with them , Raid battle! Delay their search attack!"

At that time, most of the military officers, including Smith, sneered at this. The powerful U.S. military with powerful sea, land and air forces still needs to hide in holes like mice and fight the enemy secretly?That would be a shame!

He even claimed unceremoniously: "The backs of American soldiers are too hard, and I'm afraid they can't bend down to drill those low, dirty and dark caves. We have the full ability to directly crush the Chinese attack."

The big words at that time were still ringing in his ears, but now it was like a slap in the face was slapped hard on his own face!

Without the support of the navy, without the help of the air force, how can we crush our opponents by relying on our own infantry, which looks powerful but is actually isolated?Not to mention, they don't come to face-to-face confrontation at all, and they can crush him to death several times just by using some off-the-box tricks!

Smith didn't want to show his uselessness and depression to others, he gritted his teeth and closed his eyes while waiting for the new battle report, and prepared himself for a bigger loss, but there was no movement after waiting for a long time!

He asked suspiciously, and reports from various positions in front of him poured in, and the summed up judgment made him stunned: "What?! You said that all those damned guys have moved to the north mountain?! They don't attack our position. Already?!"

Smith didn't know whether to cry or laugh, happy or angry.Nima, I am quite sure of the trap I set up, and people just go around without looking at it, and don't come!

"**! Does this count as looking down on me?!"

The first reaction was that I was underestimated!Nima tried to kill so many soldiers of Lao Tzu, turned around and left, how shameful it is!

The staff officer said: "General! From our judgment, their task is not a full-scale offensive, but to "find out" our peripheral defense deployment. Presumably, the purpose of attacking northward is to "find out" the deployment of the 27th Army Division over there. situation. Shall we issue a warning?"

Smith hesitated for a moment.The 27th Division of the Army over there is also a bunch of bastards. The division commander happened to be called Ralph Smith, who has the same surname as him, but the relationship between the two parties is terrible!He didn't want to contact that bastard unless necessary.

After thinking about it, the overall situation is the most important thing, Smith waved his hand depressedly: "Tell them what we know, and don't let the Chinese guys "touch" the details!"

The liaison officer immediately complied, and thoughtfully conveyed the series of information he had learned during the short period of the battle. Unexpectedly, Ralph Smith over there responded with a burst of ridicule: "Without the battleship, you will not fight ? Or leave the battlefield to us, you just have to watch!" (To be continued.
