Anti-Japanese War: Red Alert Base, I am the Power

"Hiss, Type 5 tank?"

Seeing these huge tanks, even Xie Ning took a breath.

That's right, the reinforcements this time are the Type 5G tanks, also known as the Leopard tanks.

Whether it is the BT-7 fast tank or the Type 4 tank, they are like a child in front of him.

After all, if the Leopard tank is divided by tonnage, it is a real heavy tank.

Because it has a combat weight of 45 tons.

This is also the first tank of the German army to use inclined armor. It integrates many technologies of the T-34.

In terms of weapons, it uses a L70 75mm caliber gun, which is more powerful than the Tiger's 88mm tank gun.

It is one of the most powerful tank guns in World War II.

In terms of power, it is equipped with a 700-horsepower engine.

It has a speed of 55 kilometers per hour.

Both the power and mobility are very strong.

In terms of walking device Although the surface uses staggered road wheels which is a bit tricky.

But it has been improved a lot on the G model, and the failure rate has been reduced a lot.

However, this way of traveling also has an advantage.

China's terrain is complex and the road conditions are very poor.

The Leopard tank's traveling device has better passability and is more suitable.

However, it is an indisputable fact that most bridges are impassable.

But there is no need to think so far now.

Let's first fight the Eighth Division in front of us.

The addition of these two equipments also makes Xie Ning more confident about tomorrow's general offensive.

In the early morning, the 1st Red Alert Division was ready for battle.

At this moment, Pingquan has become a large barracks, with tens of thousands of Japanese troops gathered here.

It has also become their natural bunker fortifications.

The division commander Nishi Yoshiichi wants to use street fighting to delay the attack of the 1st Red Alert Division.

At the same time, the armored forces of the 1st Division cannot play a role in this environment.

Xie Ning sneered at this.

"I'm Xie Ning, attack immediately."

With the order from the division commander Xie Ning, hundreds of cannons on the rear artillery positions began to fire.

Among them were the B-4 203mm heavy howitzers that were replenished last night.

Suddenly, dense explosions in Pingquan City rose to the sky.

The 203mm howitzers caused a particularly huge noise.

The dirt and rubble were lifted up dozens of meters in the air.

The buildings hit by it disintegrated instantly, leaving a huge deep pit on the ground.

Even the powerful 155mm field cannon was somewhat eclipsed by it.

Seeing this scene, the division commander Xi Yiyi and others changed their faces

"Damn, the Chinese have equipped themselves with new heavy artillery."

The caliber of this powerful heavy artillery should be around 200mm.

This level of heavy artillery is considered a coastal defense artillery type in their army.

I didn't expect that the Chinese on the other side would actually pull this heavy artillery over.

"whoosh whoosh whoosh......"

Katyusha rocket launchers returned to the battlefield again.

Overwhelming rocket launchers roared towards Pingquan.

For a whole day, the artillery fire from the Red Alert First Division never stopped.

Xie Ning was not in a hurry to launch an attack.

The more Japanese devils he attracted, the less pressure on the commander.

So he had to put enough pressure on the Eighth Division.

Not to mention the Eighth Division, even if there was one more division, he had the confidence to win the battle.

It was not that he looked down on the Japanese devils.

It was just an ironclad fact.

The artillery fire stopped at night.

But the next day, the overwhelming artillery bombardment began again.

Pingquan is now a ruin, and there is not a single intact building in the entire town.

The 203mm howitzer played a great role in this battle.

No matter how solid the fortifications were, they were reduced to ruins under its shelling.

Most of the fortifications deployed by the Japanese army in Pingquan City were destroyed in the shelling.

Thousands of casualties were suffered in the shelling, reaching the scale of a regiment.

The Eighth Division had never fought such a frustrating battle.

And they were powerless.

After the bombardment lasted for three hours, the well-fed and well-drinking Red Alert First Division finally launched a ground attack.

Tanks were still the protagonists of the attack.

One Leopard tank after another rushed to the front, becoming the protagonists of this battlefield.

After seeing this scene, the Japanese soldiers who were hiding from the bombardment in the gap of the city wall had their pupils shrunk into pinholes.

Looking at the Leopard tanks rushing like beasts.

Even though they couldn't help swallowing their saliva, fear spread in their eyes.

""The Emperor is on board!"

Although they were terrified, they were more afraid of being deserters.

When the tank cluster was very close to the wall of Pingquan, a group of Japanese soldiers rushed out holding explosive packs and cluster grenades.

However, they were greeted by dense bullets.

The Japanese bullets hit the heavy armor of the Leopard tank, leaving only small white dots.

The off-road performance of the Leopard tank is very powerful.

It easily passed through various obstacles and entered Pingquan.

The Japanese defense line was fragile at this moment.

The two sides began to fight fiercely around Pingquan City.

After all, the opposite side was a full-strength division of the Japanese army.

It is not so easy to defeat the other side.

After all, it would take a long time to kill more than 20,000 pigs in front of them.

Not to mention the fully armed Japanese soldiers.

A small-scale battle also broke out in Chengde.

The Japanese army The 4th Cavalry Brigade relied on its strong mobility to reach the Chengde area.

However, they followed the Wulie River and were subjected to heavy artillery and air strikes as soon as they arrived at a place called Wangjiawa.

P-47D Thunder fighters kept dropping bombs and strafing. The heavy artillery brigade used all its strength to fire one shell after another.

Once they met, the 4th Cavalry Brigade of the Japanese Army suffered heavy losses and fled in panic.

Only more than 3,000 people and horses were left out of more than 5,000 people.

The outbreak of the Pingquan Campaign also began to attract high attention from the whole country.

It also became the front-page headlines of major newspapers.

Jiang Fan's name appeared in the eyes of the general public across the country for the first time.
