Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

Chapter 835 Iron-Blooded Tiger Ben
"Captain! Enemy tanks were found!" Just as Du Yuming was about to go crazy, the observer Liu Bingsen suddenly called out.

Hearing this news, Du Yuming immediately jumped up as if a spring had been stretched, then he quickly opened the hatch and raised the telescope in his hand.Mainly due to the occlusion of the bushes, the periscope could not obtain a good observation field of view, so Du Yuming had to take this dangerous observation and aiming action.Soon, through the binoculars, he saw the French tank column slowly driving on the curved dirt road.As it was approaching night, the objects in the telescope became very blurred, so the outline of the observation was not very clear.Fortunately, the headlights of these tanks were turned on, so some details were still fully visible in Du Yuming's telescope.The vanguard of this force had passed the first bend of the ambush circle, where a large number of anti-personnel mines were planted.There are about 30 Renault light tanks, all painted in very dirty khaki camouflage, crawling slowly on the dirt road, like ugly toads.

"Attention all commanders, attention all commanders, prepare to fight." Du Yuming immediately turned on the short-frequency intercom and issued an order, then he checked the time, 7:10, seeing that a fierce battle was imminent!
Observer Liu Bingsen saw densely packed French tanks lined up in a column, with black smoke coming out from behind, making loud noises, rumbling towards this trail at a fast pace.Soon he focused on a Renault tank with the number 1308 running in the front, with a pennant on it, which seemed to be a command vehicle.He twisted the focus adjustment knob on the telescope and said, "Here they come! Here they come!"

Seeing the French approaching the ambush circle step by step, Du Yuming was as excited as if he had been pumped with chicken blood.

Du Yuming suddenly closed his eyes and murmured: "Target 1308 car, 11 o'clock direction, distance 1200 meters, wind force two levels, focus adjustment 2 minutes, auxiliary ranging target 950 3 meters high tree. Prepare armor-piercing bullets. Don't worry, don't worry, wait until it comes over."

"Okay! The target distance is 1100 meters, turn the muzzle."

"The 950-meter target is approaching."

Du Yuming opened his eyes suddenly, and suddenly stretched out his right hand: "Get ready to fire!"

As soon as the words fell, the 105mm main gun of the Tiger tank roared instantly. Boom, the No. 1308 tank rushing to the front obviously slowed down. There is no damage to the tank, but if you look inside, it is already in a mess.

"Perfect! It's perfect!" Seeing that tank rush out of the road like a crazy rhinoceros, and then lay straight across the middle of the road.Immediately, the direction of the entire convoy of the French army was blocked, and the tanks were slanted in disorder on the path that was not spacious at all, and it was a mess in an instant.

Since imperial military experts had already technically dealt with the flames of the Tiger tank's gun barrel, the French did not judge the direction of the gunfire that was fired just now.

At this time, Chen Ming was about to order the engineers to pull down the detonating device of the directional mine, but Du Yuming stopped him loudly, "Wait! There is one more shot! The intersection of the French has not been completely sealed, so don't startle the enemy at this time!" Sure enough, Another Renault tank rushed past the partner who had just been paralyzed. The crew believed that although the 1308 tank was blown up, its shell just sealed the potential shooting area. They always thought the direction of the shooting It came from their right, but they didn't expect that the other party was on the hillside to their left, and it was about 900 meters away from them.

The tank had just passed halfway, and Du Yuming's 105mm main gun spoke again. This time he used a tungsten-core armor-piercing projectile. A fireball, followed by another bang, the ammunition placed in the tank was detonated by the fire, and the huge explosion impact threw the turret tens of meters away.

At the same time, the French finally discovered the direction of the enemy's artillery, so 75mm grenades, 37mm anti-tank artillery shells, 60mm mortar shells, and even bullets of various calibers blew towards the hill like a storm.In an instant, the entire hill was enveloped in huge smoke.

"Good job! Great job!" Seeing the scene in front of him, Du Yuming couldn't help shouting.But now is not the time to attack, because the French are not completely dizzy yet, what we have to do now is to make those French completely dizzy.

"Quick! Press it!" Du Yuming yelled loudly at Chen Ming who was still in a daze under the car, and then Chen Ming came to his senses and hurriedly pressed the detonating device of the explosive.

"Boom!" With a loud noise, the back of the path turned gray.

"It's so damn good!" Seeing the entire rear of the French army convoy disappearing in thick smoke and flames, Du Yuming felt indescribably happy.Although he didn't know how much the opponent's loss was, he believed that these anti-personnel landmines were not a show. The 2500 steel balls carried by each mine could easily penetrate a 20mm-thick mine at a distance of 10 meters. Steel plates, and this road section only needs 24 such mines to completely block it.The assault team placed 6 such landmines and other explosive devices behind the enemy, and 50 flying steel balls, at a speed of [-] meters per hour, fell on the French armored forces like raindrops. There is no reason for the French in the attack circle to be safe.

Now that he has fully grasped the initiative in the battle, he immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and switched on the intercom: "No. 1322, Liu Fuming, what are you waiting for? Follow me!" After speaking, he got out of the tank, and then He patted Wang Baosheng's back heavily with his hand. Wang Baosheng was beaten so painfully. After cursing in a low voice, he immediately let go of the clutch. After the huge tiger tank vibrated violently twice, it let out a violent roar Suddenly, it was like a jungle tiger rushing straight out, and another No. 1322 also rushed up the path at the fastest speed.

At this time, the French armored forces led by Legris had fallen into chaos. His troops were suddenly ambushed and lost two tanks, although.This is nothing to an armored force with a large number of tanks, but the opponent cleverly used this move to successfully block the way forward for the entire army.

After some judgment and reconnaissance, they determined that the shell was fired from the hillside in the southwest direction, and the distraught Legris immediately ordered a countermeasure.As soon as the words fell, a huge explosion suddenly sounded from behind the troops, completely knocking Legris into a coma.

If the opponent's blocking in the front can still be understood as blocking their way forward and delaying their progress, then it would be a headache to be attacked in the rear.Judging from the current situation, the firepower of the Chinese seems to be very strong. Taking the explosion just now as an example, Legris believes that at least one heavy howitzer company of the Dragon Army was ambushed here.If calculated in this way, the opponent also has at least the strength of an armored company.But he really couldn't understand why there are so many Chinese people here, "Could it be that this is a trap arranged by the Chinese in advance?"

Thinking of this, Legris' scalp couldn't help but tingle. If there are really so many dragon troops here, wouldn't his current situation be very bad?As things stand, he has only two options.First, give it a go and destroy the enemy's armored units with a powerful counterattack.Second, organize the defense, focus on the road for defense, try to drag the opponent until midnight, and then spread out to break through, but in this way, your own equipment will suffer a lot of loss.

Now, for Legris, his armored forces had no chance of winning against the lurking dragon army. If the opponent's strength surpassed his own, wouldn't it be a sheep in the mouth of a tiger if he took the initiative to attack?If the opponent is just bluffing, wouldn't it be a waste of opportunity to adopt defensive compression tactics?
After thinking about it, Legris still didn't have the courage to put all his strength into the attack, so he made a compromise decision, which was to send Company A to attack the hill, while the rest of the troops stayed on the road to support at any time.This has an advantage, because judging from the firepower on the opposite side of the hill, the enemy's tanks there are not many, and he should be able to gain a certain advantage.As long as you occupy the top of the mountain, you can be condescending and invincible.After making up his mind, Legris ordered all the tanks to point their long cannons at the hill in the southwest.

Just as Du Yuming and the other two tanks were driving on the road, French company A crossed the road on the east side and outflanked the hill where Du Yuming and the others were.The purpose of these French is very clear, that is to keep distracting the attention of the Chinese on the opposite side, and attack at the right time.

But at this time, Du Yuming didn't understand the enemy's intentions. To be honest, although he was paying close attention to the situation on the opposite road through binoculars.But he was not very clear about the opponent's arrangement.So he led his tanks straight into the road from the bushes of the depression, so that it happened to be wedged in the French armored convoy.This plan is undoubtedly like a tiger going into a pack of wolves. A normal person would never do this, but Du Yuming dared it.

After entering the highway, his vision suddenly widened, but he was also taken aback.It turned out that the French reconnaissance vehicle closest to him was 15 meters to the right of him. Just now, due to the cover of the bushes, no one saw the other party. About 200 meters to the left, the muzzles of several MAX3000 tanks were facing with his tank.The French army was also taken aback. They did not expect that the enemy's tanks would appear nearby all of a sudden, and they were terrifying Tiger tanks.
