Chapter 626 Anti-tank guns
This is the growth rate of the tank crew of the Eighth Route Army.

Wang Xuexin didn't spend too much time training tanks, he just told them one thing: "Tank combat is completely different from infantry combat with guns. It's not just hiding in tanks and firing machine guns. You have to completely forget when you were infantry. Everything, try to fight with a whole new way of thinking!"

Soldiers have been very successful in this regard. During tank training, they not only train the coordination between the tank crew, but also train the conditioned reflexes when encountering different situations...

It was not easy for them, because they had to forget about one reflex they had developed as foot soldiers and replace it with another.

For example, at this time, if an infantryman sees an infantry cannon aiming at them in front of him, he will lie down to hide and then raise the gun to shoot.

But with a tank it's completely different... stop, it's an excellent target for the enemy, and it's still.

If the distance is long, it is necessary to maneuver at full speed, and observe the actions of the enemy gunner to estimate the firing time, and suddenly turn to avoid it one second before firing.

If the distance is close, there is nothing to say, just run over it.

These operations are formed in the usual training over and over again, and they must become subconscious reactions, because on the battlefield, as long as you hesitate for a moment, you are likely to die.

The training was obviously successful. The tank "cracked" the [-] infantry gun and crushed it into scrap iron in just a few seconds. The [-] infantry gun didn't dare to fire until the last moment... …Fireing can't cause damage to the enemy tank, but it will accidentally injure yourself because the distance is too close, so firing is meaningless.

Captain Taniguchi shouted: "Dynamite pack..."

But before the words were finished, a few smoked grenades were thrown from behind the tank. Amidst the chaos of "boom, boom", the troops of the Taniguchi Squadron that could not be dispersed on South Street were blown up into screams.

However, this is just the beginning.

Suddenly, several rockets flew towards the streets on both sides with a howling sound, and after a loud explosion, several piles of flames were ignited.

The flames illuminated the entire battlefield in an instant, and these incendiary bombs were fired at a distance instead of near... If the incendiary bombs were fired at close range, the flames would only illuminate a small area in front of them, but if they were fired at a slightly further position, A bright background will be formed in the distance, and any enemy running in the middle area will become a clear black shadow.

Then, the machine gun on the T26 tank rang.

The random sweep of the bullets "da da da", like the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves, caused a bloody storm among the crowd of Taniguchi Squadron.

At this time, there were still a few devils hiding in the dark and throwing grenades, but they all exploded in front of the tank because of the distance.

Two other devils tried to rush towards the tank holding explosive packs, but they were knocked down by bullets fired from nowhere after just a few steps...

After the incendiary bombs were fired, the devils were in the light, while the Eighth Route Army and infantry on the other side were in the dark. Using darkness to fight the light, the devils did not know who died in their hands until they died.

Then, another tank joined the battle group, and the two tanks advanced side by side along the street, one on the left and the other on the right.

To be precise, it is not advancing side by side, but advancing alternately.

This is a common tactic used by tanks in street fighting. When the tank is moving forward, it often bumps up and down due to the uneven road surface. This will not only cause the tank gun to lose its aim, but also have a great impact on the accuracy of the machine gun. Sometimes it is obvious that the target is running ahead. He fired wildly at him but couldn't hit him no matter what.

In this case, it is very dangerous for two tanks to advance side by side at the same time. At this time, it is more necessary for one tank to stop and use machine guns and artillery to provide fire cover for the other tank. Once the enemy infantry is found, use machine guns to shoot. If there are enemies hiding in the building, they will be bombarded with tank guns.

The other tank took advantage of this time to move forward for a certain distance, and then stopped to provide cover for the other tank. Behind the two tanks, there was another tank ready to reinforce at any time... This is the tank's three-three system tactic.

Soon Taniguchi Squadron was wiped out.

In fact, they were not completely wiped out. Several devils took advantage of the night to hide in houses and then escaped through the alleys.

Even if the devil is an elite army, some people will inevitably become deserters. This is actually human nature.

During the battle, the devils systematically launched suicide attacks on the opponent, because there was no chance to escape... All of them were registered, and the superiors strictly ordered the board to charge, and there were even machine guns in the rear to supervise the battle.

At this time, there is no difference between rushing and not rushing, both are dead.

If there is any difference, it is that if you don't rush, you will become a disgrace to the empire and be shot, and your family will be ashamed.

Chong, it will become the glory of the empire, and the family will be rewarded for it.

So everyone knows how to choose.

Of course, it is also a helpless choice.

Wang Xuexin did not see the destruction of the Taniguchi Squadron, because he led a company of tanks to attack along the middle road.

The battle plan is that after the tanks enter the city, they will attack in three ways.

This is necessary because the streets in Yuncheng are narrow... There is no such thing as three lanes and four lanes in this era, because there are basically no cars on the street, and even if there is an occasional carriage, a street more than ten meters wide can be regarded as a street.

The T26 tank is 3.41 meters wide, and two tanks walking side by side on the street are a bit crowded. Of course, it is impossible for more than [-] tanks to crowd into one street and take the same route. The long reason for going back to the line of offense over and over again.

The tanks are divided into three directions to attack according to the company, namely the east road, the west road and the middle road.

The reserve team collided head-on with the west road, while Wang Xuexin's middle road ran into an anti-tank gun that the devils came to reinforce.

These anti-tank guns were urgently dispatched by Anda 23 after hearing the news.

He specially transferred the tank guns from Taiyuan to defend Yuncheng. There are eleven "type one 37mm" anti-tank guns in total.

For these eleven anti-tank guns, Anda 23 is allocated as follows:
There are three gates each in the north, east, and west, and the remaining two gates are placed on Old North Street, which he personally directs for maneuvering.

As for the south gate, it is not a place where tanks will attack, so there is no need for anti-tank guns... Fortunately, this is the case, otherwise the tank troops of the Eighth Route Army might not be able to enter the city at all.

This "one-type anti-tank gun" can be regarded as the devil's first "professional" anti-tank gun.

The reason why the devils developed this anti-tank gun was because they were beaten by Maoxiong's tanks in the Battle of Nomonhan, so this anti-tank gun was mainly used to deal with T26 tanks.

Now it happens to be used to deal with the T26 of the Eighth Route Army.
