The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 1043
Nanzhi Chariot Brigade Headquarters.

It was learned that a large number of armored units of the Eighth Route Army suddenly appeared behind the front line that his troops had advanced.

The supply unit, the transportation unit, and the mobile artillery unit were successively attacked by the armored units of the Eighth Route Army.

The scattered tank units were also violently attacked by the armored units of the Eighth Route Army that suddenly appeared.

After Major General Nan Zhi was stunned, he turned around in a moment of anxiety. He hadn't figured out what was going on, and the eight roads hit him in the face.

"Baga, what's going on? How did things turn out like this?"

The devil's chief of staff, who was also a little flustered, analyzed from the side: "General, I'm afraid we were fooled. These days, the Eighth Route Army uses armored troops to harass us from time to time, but when our army pursues them, they retreat quickly, or A minefield ambush was set up halfway.

During the pursuit of our army, although the local casualties were not large, the local casualties were superimposed again and again. Before we knew it, our tanks had actually suffered a lot of consumption and damage.

I think Balu is waiting for this moment, for this final decisive battle! ! ! "

"Bastard, why didn't you say it earlier?" Nan Zhi scolded angrily.

Devil Chief of Staff: "..."

The situation of the past few days quickly emerged in his mind.

He: "General, the Eighth Route Army has used a small group of armored troops to harass. I'm afraid there is some kind of trap!"

Nan Zhi: "The entire Mengxi area is mostly a flat plateau area, which can give full play to our army's armored combat advantages. In the face of absolute strength advantages, can the small traps of the Eight Routes come in handy?"

He: "General, I suggest that we should be on guard against the sneak attack of the Eighth Route Army. We should focus on advancing to the 35th Army first."

Nan Zhi: "If I don't eliminate these disgusting sneak attack troops, it will be hard to get rid of my hatred!"

He: "General, our combat troops seem to be getting more and more dispersed."

Nan Zhi: "These damned Eight Routes have already been chased to pieces by us!"

He: "General, I suggest suspending the pursuit and repairing and maintaining the chariot in time to ensure continuous combat and respond to mutation crises at any time!"

Nan Zhi: "Ba Ga, stopping the pursuit at this time, isn't it a loss? The Eight Routes obviously can't hold on anymore. Didn't you see the chariot equipment and supplies they discarded along the way?"

he"…………"

Then it gradually evolved into the current situation.

What can the devil's chief of staff say about this?

He knew very well that Your Excellency General was paralyzed by arrogance and self-indulgence.

Nanzhi, an old devil, thought he was leading an elite armored group, and he didn't pay attention to the Eighth Route Army troops with outdated equipment in his impression.

Not to mention the so-called armored forces of the Eighth Route Army.

The elite armor of the Empire of Japan, and the firepower reinforcements of the air force, in such an endless and gentle plateau terrain, can't they still destroy the Eighth Route Army?
After the decisive battle broke out, the armored troops of the Eighth Route Army, who had been chased all the way by the little devils of the Nanzhi Chariot Brigade, suddenly turned around and launched a fierce attack.

At this time, the little devils who were still immersed in the arrogance of the pursuit realized to their horror that it turned out that the one they were chasing was not a sheep.

It's a tiger that can eat people!

During the confrontation between the two sides, the little devils discovered in astonishment that the morals of the world had already changed, and the Eighth Route Army was no longer the beggar team with backward equipment they imagined.

……

A place where a river flows through.

A squadron of medium-sized tanks of the Devils engaged in a head-to-head confrontation with an armored company of the Eighth Route Army.

The devil's medium-sized tank squadron is powerful under the extra-strengthened tank configuration. It is equipped with fifteen medium-sized tanks modified from [-], plus more than ten auxiliary trucks, armored vehicles, motorcycles and other vehicles.

A total of more than [-] combat vehicles.

Until this time, the equipment strength of the armored forces of the Eighth Route Army was truly displayed.

Only then did the devil realize that the strength of the armored units of the Eighth Route Army was no less than that of the so-called elite chariots of the Japanese Empire.

Looking at it from the perspective of the devil squadron leader.

The armored company of the Eighth Route Army is an armored force composed of magically modified light tanks and medium tanks.

Although the number of tanks is not too many, there are eight magically modified Japanese-style Type [-] tanks, and another four magically modified Japanese-style Type [-] modified medium-sized tanks.

Half of the tanks were inherited from the armored vehicles that belonged to the 26th Division of the Japanese Army after the capture of Datong.

There are 12 chariots in total.

The modified chariot is equipped with extended anti-gun devices on the front armor of the chariot and the front armor of the turret.

These anti-gun devices are powerful, and most of the little devils have seen them in the confrontation in the past few days, and those who have not seen them will soon see them.

The shells blasted up and were blocked by the protruding anti-gun armor. As for the rear tank armor, it didn't even scratch the skin.

But these chariots modified by the Eighth Route Army are not the most frightening for the Devils' armored soldiers at this moment.

What these little devils felt most shuddering was the somewhat weird but frightening anti-tank self-propelled artillery that appeared in their field of vision and was remodeled by the Eighth Route Army.

For example, the 150 mortars captured by the Japanese army by a team were refitted and installed on the tank site to directly make self-propelled mortars, plus a mechanical boom for semi-automatic loading.

Even the shells used were replaced by a combusting high-explosive shell mixed with the latest development of the Hessogen TNT thermite by the Military Industry Research Institute.

Click and shoot...

The power of this new type of incendiary high-explosive shell exploded instantly, and at the same time as the devil's thin-skinned tank was torn apart, the man and the tank were directly submerged in the sea of ​​flames.

Extending tens of meters along the center of the shell explosion, the mobile units of the Japanese army without armor protection were swallowed up in an instant.

Even the devil armored soldiers hidden inside the car body will be roasted to death under the engulfing flames and the astonishingly high temperature, turning them into cokes.

That kind of formidable power is astonishing, instantly turning a local area into a purgatory on earth.

Even the armored soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who personally operated the firing were a little dumbfounded.

This is the first time the big guys have witnessed the power of this new incendiary high-explosive bomb.

At first, I just heard that when this new type of incendiary high-explosive bomb was tested, it directly burned half of the mountain, and everyone didn't believe it at first.

That's it.

It was just one shot, and the soldiers immediately fell into excitement.

And the little devils who saw this scene saw that a tank hit by the strange shell of the Eighth Route Army, together with four or five tanks around them, were engulfed in flames in an instant, and their souls were almost frightened.

Fortunately, the devil's squadron leader is also considered to have rich combat experience.

He hastily ordered that the messengers issue orders with semaphore, and order all the tanks to immediately distance themselves and maintain maneuvers, in an attempt to avoid concentrated artillery fire from the Eighth Route Army in this way of scattered operations.

Then, the devil's squadron leader is also a ruthless man.

He realized that the Eighth Route Army had strong equipment and amazing artillery fire, so it was not a wise choice to confront them head-on or retreat hastily.

So after roaring a few long live charges, the leader of the Devil Squadron directly gave the order for the chariot assault, launching a brainless charge with the style of fighting to the death.

This little devil can figure it out.

He believes that the close confrontation with the tanks of the enemy's Eighth Route Army can avoid being bombarded by the opponent's self-propelled artillery. The armored vehicles launched an attack.

The squadron leader of these Japanese-style tank devils knows it all too well, the armor on the side and rear is very weak.

If it doesn't work, just drive the chariot at full speed and ram into it, at worst, you will die with the enemy.

In addition, once the chariot collided face-to-face with the self-propelled artillery of the Eighth Route Army, the self-propelled artillery lacking protective armor would be destroyed in an instant.

He is indeed a devil commander who has rich experience in armored combat and is ruthless to himself.

how...

The trump card of the armored troops built by the Eighth Route Army is far more than that.

In the ensuing close encounter, the tank guns of both sides roared to each other.

The ghost tank soldiers who launched the death charge discovered with a look of despair that the tank guns attached to the eight-way magic reformed tanks were much more powerful than their artillery.

For example, the new Soviet-made 47mm tank gun equipped with the [-]-kai medium-sized tank modified by the eight-way magic.

And the new American-made 95mm anti-tank gun installed on the Type 37 light tank.

And all equipped with new armor-piercing projectiles.

Even some eight-way magic modified 92 armored vehicles that follow the tanks are equipped with specially made Oerlikon 20mm machine guns and new armor-piercing shells.

In addition, there are a batch of Browning M2 heavy machine guns obtained directly from the United States through John, and then modified to use larger-caliber heavy machine guns. According to theoretical data, the longest range is even nearly 2000 meters.

Not to mention the devil's thin-skinned tank.

Even those blockhouses with masonry structures can directly turn them into ants' nests.

When the devil's squadron leader adjusted his tactics and charged the armored troops of the Eighth Route Army with dozens of chariots desperately.

The armored company commander of the Eighth Route Army led a team, and his rough face was almost crooked.

"Hey, did the donkey kick this little devil's head? Didn't the **** stretch his neck for us to chop off!"

Apart from anything else, after the devil's tank rushed in, the soldiers directly launched a one-sided battle that was almost a massacre.

A series of anti-tank artillery roared, but any tank that hit the Japanese side would be damaged if it was rubbed, and it would be directly destroyed by a hit, tearing it into pieces all over the place.

As the Browning heavy machine gun fires past, the large-caliber bullets with armor-piercing ability directly penetrate the tank. The tiny bullet holes are not enough to hurt the tank, but the devils with flesh and blood inside the tank are instantly The room was smashed into a puddle of mud.

The tank that lost its driver soon came to a slow stop while advancing at full speed.

The short charge distance of less than 200 meters has not yet completed half of the charge. The captain of the Devil Squadron who survived by chance looked around and found that less than 1/3 of the vehicles in the entire squadron were still able to charge into combat.

The old devil's eyes were completely red in shock and anger.

He directly drove the command tank, and rushed towards the Eighth Route Army at full speed as if desperately.

"Good come!"

The first company commander saw the tank and also noticed the antenna above the Japanese command tank, which meant that this was Guizi's command vehicle.

He personally operated the artillery and fired a cannon.

As the company commander of an armored company, the actual combat ability of the first company commander needless to say, is top-notch in the entire company.

The command tank driven by the devil squadron leader who almost lost his mind in the madness rushed forward almost in a straight line.

The shell directly hit the front armor of the Devil's [-] Kai medium tank.

After a loud noise, the car was destroyed and people were killed. The chariot slowly came to a stop with the lingering flames, and the leader of the Devil Squadron inside the chariot was completely blown into a scorched corpse.

The stupid kid's final struggle didn't change anything.

The two sides fought for more than ten minutes.

More than [-] vehicles of the entire devil medium tank squadron and more than [-] devils were destroyed and eliminated.

However, there were a few remaining devils who drove two trucks and fled out full of fear, but were stopped by the river behind them. The two devils drove their vehicles across the river forcibly. The shells fired by the self-propelled gun exploded.

Another armored combat victory.

The first company commander was no stranger to this, and after leaving some soldiers to clean up the battlefield, he led the main force of the chariots to continue to the next target area, seeking new operations.

At this time, in the Mengxi area, the entire area dominated by plateau terrain, the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese armored forces were fighting in part.

Similar battles are nothing new after the Eighth Route Army launched a counter-offensive decisive battle.

A series of defeats quickly accumulated.

The army was defeated like a mountain.

Knowing the reversal of the situation on the battlefield, Nan Zhi, the old devil, no longer cared about his original dignity and pride, and hurriedly asked for help from all parties.

Then, there was the consternation of the Japanese army and all sides of the national army at the reversal of the war situation.

35th Route Army Command.

To say who is most concerned about the final situation of the confrontation between the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese armored forces in the west of Mengxi is none other than Commander Fu.

It was learned that the Nanzhi Chariot Brigade was chasing and killing the armored units of the Eighth Route Army all the way, and with the cooperation of the air force's firepower, it was reported that a large number of armored units of the Eighth Route Army had been destroyed.

Although Commander Fu said well that the Eighth Route Army would definitely not be able to fight such a stupid battle, he was also very worried in his heart.

When the Eighth Route Armored Forces launched a decisive battle, the Nanzhi Chariot Brigade was defeated, and news came that the 26th Division rushed to reinforce them.

The chief of staff of the 35th Route Army looked dull.

As the commander said, the battle situation was reversed.

And it's an unbelievable and shocking reversal!

The Eighth Route Army's armored unit, which had been pursued all the way and was said to have suffered heavy casualties, turned out to be a devil's chariot that was defeated after the decisive battle, and hurriedly called for help.

This is this...

Acting is not so exaggerated, right?
"Yi Gong! This, the news should not be false, right?"

Fu Yisheng laughed loudly and said, "Can the news brought back by our army's frontier reconnaissance force be false?
Hurry up, the Eighth Road is open, we can't wait any longer, we can't let Lao He see the joke!

Immediately follow the plan and send out all our mobile troops, not even a single horse can fall, and immediately advance towards Baotou.

In addition, I heard that the 26th Division is heading north for reinforcements, and then send me a troop to stop them.

This time, Balu beat the devil's chariot brigade, which can be regarded as a bad breath for us, and we have to pay back this favor! "

"Eh!"

The chief of staff responded one by one.

After all the orders were arranged, the two looked at the blue sky not far away and sighed with emotion.

Commander Fu's words expressed the feelings of the two of them:
"After this battle, the armored troops of the Eighth Route Army may become famous all over the world!"
