Alien Arms Empire.

Chapter 606 606 Enemy's Grenade
Through the slender observation window, Liu Guozhu looked at the enemy machine gun bunker that was firing non-stop in the distance.It was less than 200 meters away from his tank, and collapsed barbed wire fences and trenches with Mirage soldiers could still be seen around.

"Front right! Pay attention to the front right!" He loudly reminded the gunner in front of him in the noisy tank. The gunner pressed the button, and the turret began to rotate to the right.

The outer hanging steel plate makes the turret of the No. 4 tank look bigger, and Mirage regards this shape of the tank as a new model.

But they soon corrected this miscalculation, because they destroyed a tank and confirmed the characteristics of the wreckage.Tang Jun's tanks have not been upgraded, which is definitely good news for other countries.

This is war. No matter how advanced the weapons are, there will still be losses. Even if the losses are compressed to the extreme, they will still be losses!

"I saw it! I saw it!" Soon, as the turret rotated, the gunner saw the target that Liu Guozhu had just seen in his scope.

The opponent was still shooting non-stop, forcing the attacking Tang army to stop and wait for friendly tanks to destroy this damn firepower point.

"Boom!" The gunner stepped on the firing pedal, and the short-barreled 75mm caliber howitzer fired a grenade, which just hit the target 200 meters away.

Datang Group's lens processing technology is very advanced, and the accuracy is guaranteed, so the aiming system of the No. 4 tank is very precise, which also provides help for the Tang Army's gunner to aim at the target.

Although the ballistic performance of the 75mm caliber artillery with low chamber pressure and short barrel is not good, it still has a very high hit accuracy at a distance of about 200 meters.

The shot hit a few centimeters next to the perforation of the machine gun bunker, blowing off the top of the bunker in an instant and killing all the mirage soldiers inside.

The continuous sound of the Maxim machine gun finally stopped, and the surrounding soldiers of the Tang Army suddenly lost the pressure to attack.

A Tang army trumpeter prostrate on the ground grabbed the cornet beside him and blew a loud attack horn: "Didi da, di di di, di di di, di di di di!"

This is Tang Mo's little stubbornness, and it is also his homage to some mysterious power from the East.The sound of the witch's flute, the call of the god of death, the magic sound of attack, the prelude to victory... In short, once this sound sounds, a devastating attack will kick off, and any impregnable defense line will be wiped out.

However, in this world, not only well-trained infantry, but also tanks with rolling tracks are advancing with the loud and clear sound of cornets!
"Directly ahead! There is a hidden firepower point directly in front! They are adjusting the angle of the machine gun!" Liu Guozhu once again found the target and reminded his partner loudly.

The gunner turned the turret again, and the bullets fired by the mirage soldiers around were hitting the steel plate of the tank, densely packed like raindrops.

When tanks attack the enemy's defensive positions, what is the most lost?It's paint!The opponent's light weapon bullets will hit the tank densely, which is basically the same as polishing the paint on the tank shell.

Fragments of some shells and some larger-caliber weapons may penetrate the steel plate hanging around the No. 4 tank, so nothing valuable can be placed in the compartment between these steel plates and the vehicle body.

If you put a steel helmet, you may find a hole in it after the battle. If you put a kettle and lunch box, it may leak. If you put a tent, clothes, shoes and socks, the same is true.

Therefore, in the end, most of these compartments are filled with spare road wheels, spare tracks and the like-it is not too afraid of damage, but also can increase some protection capabilities, which can be achieved in one fell swoop.

As for things like tents, shoes and socks, lunch boxes and water bottles, they were hung directly outside the tanks, and they were left on the offensive position before joining the battle, and the follow-up troops would help take care of them.

Don't think that the tank unit only has tanks, there are also trucks responsible for transporting oil, there are also transport logistics maintenance personnel, and there are various second-line troops. Add up, it is a mighty family.

The No. 4 tank, which was covered in bullet marks, staggered and continued to move forward.The coaxial machine gun smashed the enemy machine gun position newly discovered by Liu Guozhu into pieces.

There are bomb craters everywhere on the battlefield, and Liu Guozhu's tanks sometimes have to stop to avoid those huge bomb craters while advancing, and choose a better path.

During the detour, it was not so smooth.Inside the tank with a narrow view, Liu Guozhu's head hit the roof of the car unexpectedly.

He covered his head in pain, squinted his eyes and let out a groan.At that time, tank crews did not have special hard hats, and Liu Guozhu still wore traditional soft hats with brims, similar to the hats of the Eighth Route Army.

"Pay attention to the crater! It's too bumpy!" He rubbed his head and reminded his driver.

Just as he was speaking, the front of the tank smashed down hard, apparently crashing into another bomb crater.

Before Liu Guozhu could react, the front of the tank began to lift high again, and the whole tank rushed out of the crater again and continued to move forward.

The tanks of this era are in this state. The No. 4 tank with small-diameter tank road wheels has the same off-road performance on complex terrain.

It's all helpless, and such tanks are already the most advanced in this era, so there is nothing to complain about.

On Liu Guozhu's breast pocket was a second-class hussars medal, and on the side of the medal was another Luozhen combat medal that had just been awarded to all members of their crew.

This medal was awarded to all combat units that participated in the offensive and defensive battle of Luozhen, including air force pilots, infantry soldiers, and tank soldiers.

"Steady! Damn it!" Liu Guozhu cursed loudly, and his tank also slightly slowed down as he cursed.

Liu Guozhu, who was still aching in the head, went to the observation window, looked around, and found that his tank had already reached the front of the enemy's position.

To his left and right he could see the trenches of the mirages, and there were mirage soldiers at close range.

"We are already in the enemy's position! Keep going! Cross the trench!" On a chaotic battlefield, staying put is no different from courting death, so Liu Guozhu decided to keep going.

At this moment, he saw a Mirage soldier throw something towards where they were.

This was the first time he saw a Mirage person doing such an action, so he didn't realize what happened for a moment.

In the next moment, he realized that the opponent's movement of raising his arm was exactly the same as Tang Jun throwing a grenade.

Sure enough, in the next second, a grenade exploded near his tank.The rising smoke blocked Liu Guozhu's sight, but he did not suffer any substantial damage.

He was in the tank, and he was wearing earphones, which somewhat protected his ears and kept him from losing his hearing due to the shock.

Secondly, the shock wave from the grenade did not penetrate the armor of the tank, so Liu Guozhu only felt the explosion, but was not injured.

"Damn it, grenade!" Even though he had no vision, the loader on the side also felt the familiar vibration.

"It wasn't our people who threw it! Damn it! The Mirage people have grenades!" Liu Guozhu pressed the communicator in his throat, and loudly reported to his platoon leader what he had just seen: "I saw the Mirage people throwing grenades!"

"Are you sure? Are you sure?" The platoon leader's voice came eagerly from the headset.

"I saw them throw something at me, and then it exploded!" Liu Guozhu's tank had run over the trench of the mirage soldiers at this time, and the dirt rolled up by the tracks fell down and hit the mirage soldiers in the trench. They were so scared that they didn't even dare to raise their heads.

"I see where you are! Go ahead! Leave it to me to cover!" The voice of the platoon leader continued.

"Understood! I am moving forward!" Liu Guozhu continued to shout: "Forward! Suppress the mirage firepower point in front! They are retreating! They are retreating!"

"Left side! The bunker on the left side!" "Right side! Fire! Fire! There's a machine gun there!" In the headset, there were shouts from other tank commanders.

They seem to be communicating, but what they shout is basically useless content.No way, the commanders of the entire tank platoon were replaced by one-third before entering the war.

I heard that one-third of the evacuation was assigned to the new armored division as the commander. Liu Guozhu didn't want to leave the 1st armored division, so he stayed.

It's just that he has also been promoted now, and he should have been transferred to the platoon leader, but because he voluntarily asked to stay in the first platoon, he missed this opportunity for promotion.

Although the communication was chaotic, Tang Jun's attack was still swift and fierce.Under the cover of more than 40 tanks, it took only one morning for the attacking Tang Army infantry to break through the outer defense line of the mirage defenders.

The battle was not intense, because the Mirage troops were shrinking.They planned to place the main battlefield in Beiyuan City, and did not intend to continue to entangle with the Tang army on the periphery.

It's just that they didn't give up these outlying positions, but sent some troops to defend them.

These troops are tantamount to being sold and abandoned.They had no reinforcements and were not allowed to retreat.They were asked to fight to the last man, leaving a suicide note before they even set off.

It's a pity that there are still a small number of people who are not afraid of death and are willing to die. Despite the restraint of the supervising team and the crazy commander, many of the mirage defenders chose to surrender.

They put down the weapons in their hands, and among the weapons in their hands, the commanders of Tang's frontline troops really found some gadgets that surprised them.
