The commander of the Japanese tank saw that the distance was getting closer, and immediately ordered: "Driver, stop! The loader loads the armor-piercing shells, and the gunner is ready to fire!"

The driver stepped on the brakes immediately, and the loader put the shells into the barrel. The gunner took aim for a while and fired. The shells flew towards the tanks of Lin Yuan's troops one by one. Without waiting at all, the second shell was loaded into the barrel, and the gunner immediately pressed the firing button, and the cycle repeated several times.

This is the multiple shooting method that the Japanese tanks came up with to fight against the tanks of Lin Yuan's army. The essence of this tactic lies in: shooting out multiple shells in a short time, and having the quantity to make up for the lack of accuracy: so many shells will always One of them was hit. Sure enough, the Japanese army's tactics had a miraculous effect. An armor-piercing projectile just hit the front of a tank. If it was an armor-piercing projectile, the explosive reactive armor would explode to interfere with the metal jet, but now this It is an armor-piercing projectile, and the explosives in the reactive armor box are not enough to offset the huge kinetic energy of the armor-piercing projectile.

Moreover, the armor-piercing projectiles used by the Japanese army were capped armor-piercing projectiles. Lin Yuan had seen this kind of projectiles when he was in Germany. The front end of this kind of armor-piercing projectiles was made of easily broken metal. When the impact occurs, the cap on the head is broken first, and then leaves the projectile body, and the hard core behind penetrates or even penetrates the target's armor.

The explosives in the reaction box exploded and shattered the cap, and the tungsten core inside hit the armor firmly. Fortunately, this armor-piercing bomb did not penetrate the frontal armor of Lin Yuan’s tank, but the huge The impact force destroyed all the sighting equipment installed on the front turret, and the gyroscope of the hk-1 fire control system was also damaged. The gyroscope is the core component of the two-way stabilizer. Once the gyroscope is broken, the fire control system will be completely destroyed. Lost the ability to stabilize the main gun!

The tank was so damaged that the commander immediately reported to his superiors and asked to withdraw from the battle. The superiors could only approve it, but as soon as the tank withdrew from the battle, a gap appeared in the defense line of Lin Yuan's tank troops. More Japanese troops From this gap, the tank entered the range where it could attack the tanks of Lin Yuan's troops.

After receiving the report from his subordinates, Qian Songyu thought, "We can't fight like this now. Our numbers are small. Sooner or later, we will be eaten up by Japanese tanks. We still have to retreat!" Under the artillery fire of the Japanese army, they forcibly turned.

The front of the car turned to the direction of retreat, but the direction of the muzzle still needed to point to the Japanese army. However, when a tank turned the turret, it found that a Japanese armor-piercing projectile was stuck between the turret and the body. The first armor of Lin Yuan’s tank was wedge-shaped. Yes, although this kind of armor can increase the probability of the enemy's armor-piercing projectiles jumping, it also makes it easy for the shells to get stuck in the gap between the wedge-shaped armor and the vehicle body.

The kinetic energy of the armor-piercing projectile is extremely high. Once it is stuck in the gap, it is as strong as a nail smashed into a wooden board by a sledgehammer. It is impossible for the turret to rotate to push the projectile away, and the turret cannot rotate!Therefore, the tank exposed its most vulnerable turret tail during the turning process. A Japanese armor-piercing projectile directly hit the tail of the turret, penetrated the hull, and directly killed the commander and gunner inside the hull.

The driver also felt the huge vibration when the armor-piercing projectile penetrated the turret, so he immediately notified his superiors with a communicator, and the news was quickly reported to Qian Songyu. At this time, Qian Songyu was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, because he had already He received the news that eight tanks were damaged and destroyed. He knew that the current way of fighting was not good, but he had no other way. At this time, reinforcements from the seventh and eighth regiments arrived!

As soon as the tanks of these two regiments entered the battlefield, they concentrated all their strength to attack the right flank of the Japanese army. As soon as this new force joined, the situation on the battlefield was immediately changed. The Japanese tank troops could not resist and quickly retreated. The Eighth Regiment did not pursue and allowed the Japanese army to retreat into Huangshiling.

Qian Songyu immediately counted the battle damage. Only then did he realize that nine tanks in his tank regiment were destroyed, and seven tanks were seriously injured that could not be repaired on the battlefield. They had to be sent to the base to be repaired. Damage, the damage rate is as high as [-]%!

The brigade commander of the third brigade heard from Chengcheng that the damage rate in this battle was as high as 40%, so he immediately ran to the regiment headquarters of the Ninth Regiment. More than [-] Japanese tanks were destroyed, but our own losses were not small, why is that?"

Qian Songyu said: "We have already analyzed it, and we believe that our battle damage mainly comes from two reasons. The first is intelligence. We didn't know the number of Japanese tanks in advance, so we thought that there were not many Japanese tanks. The Japanese tank sea tactics were unprepared; secondly, in terms of equipment and tactics, the new artillery shells adopted by the Japanese army were very lethal. The frontal armor of some of our tanks was penetrated by their new shells at close range, and The Japanese army adopted the method of firing multiple times, and the density of the shells was very high, which greatly improved the hit rate."

"However, the biggest change of the Japanese tanks was in the mobility. It turned out that the Japanese tanks could not catch up with us. We could fight as we wanted, but this time the Japanese tanks were obviously more mobile than ours. They were overtaken by Japanese tanks at that time, and then the dogfight began."

Congcheng nodded and said, "It's not surprising that the Japanese tanks have reduced their weight and their mobility has made a qualitative leap."

Qian Songyu said: "Brigade Commander, now that the Japanese army is entrenched in Huangshiling, should we attack them? If we don't attack them, they will block our way to attack the Japanese army camp. In this way, our established goal will be It can't be achieved."

Congcheng said: "That's right, we can't attack the Japanese army in Jinshui Village unless we destroy the Japanese tank units in Huangshiling. However, according to the pilots of the 32nd Division, the terrain of Huangshiling is complicated, and our rash attack may be very dangerous." Loss!"

Qian Songyu said: "Then why don't we send our infantry into Huangshiling, carrying Dragon Fist launchers, just like the brothers fought in the Kaishantun area. The observation of Japanese tanks in the mountains is restricted, and they are definitely not the infantry's opponents."

Cong Cheng said: "This method is good. I will order the infantry to enter Huangshiling tonight and attack the Japanese tanks."

After speaking from the city, he went to issue an order. He gathered all the Dragon Fist launch teams of the Ninth Regiment and ordered them to enter Huangshiling to attack the Japanese army at nine o'clock in the evening.
