"Turning in front of the enemy" was originally a tactic used by a few tank units, with the purpose of taking advantage of the excellent performance of the HK-1 fire control system. Later, this tactic was slowly extended to the entire tank unit, and gradually became Lin Yuan's subordinate. The standard tactic of tank troops is called "death turn tactic" by Lin Yuan's troops.

The tanks of Lin Yuan’s troops immediately turned to the east after receiving the order. Qian Songyu’s command tank rushed to the front. During the turning process of the tanks, the muzzles of the tanks were always aimed at the direction of the Japanese army, and they could attack the Japanese tanks at any time. The command tank was galloping to the east, when the gunner said with some surprise: "Regimental Commander, the Japanese tanks seem to be a little different?"

Qian Songyu said nonchalantly: "Isn't it just that the gun barrel has become longer and the vehicle body has become smaller? Shuai Lin has already notified it."

The gunner said: "Commander, that's not the case. The speed of the Japanese tanks seems to be much faster!"

Qian Songyu asked: "A lot faster? What does this mean?"

The gunner said: "Several Japanese tanks have rushed to our oblique front! They are walking in a diagonal line, and we are walking in a straight line, so that they can all go in front of us, which shows that their speed must be It's faster than ours!"

Qian Songyu couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and thought in his heart: "The success of the death turn tactic is largely due to the fact that our tanks are far more maneuverable than Japanese tanks. Japanese tanks can't catch up with us at all, so we can It is very comfortable to turn the tank to the leading position, but if the speed of the Japanese tank is faster than ours, it will definitely catch up with us and fight with us, and then the advantage of the death turn strategy will be gone!"

Thinking of this, Qian Songyu's heart trembled, and he thought: "No way, the Japanese tanks must not catch up with us!" So he ordered the gunner: "Hurry up and attack the tanks that are catching up!"

The gunner said: "Commander, it's not possible now. There is a slope in the direction they are going. They have turned to the back of the slope. I can't see them."

Qian Songyu said: "Then pay attention to the other side of the slope. It is impossible for the Japanese tanks to come out behind the slope?" Suddenly, I saw a "petite" tank turning out from the side of the slope!

Qian Songyu hurriedly said: "At three o'clock, a Japanese tank was found!"

Hearing what Qian Songyu said, the gunner quickly turned the muzzle, searched and aimed, but at this time the Japanese tank had stopped, and the muzzle moved with Qian Songyu's tank. Qian Songyu knew that although the Japanese tank's fire control system was not good, the tank soldiers The quality of the tank is still good, and the hit rate of static to dynamic is good. In the battle of Kaishantun, there was an example of a Japanese tank hitting a moving tank of Lin Yuan's troops under static conditions.

Qian Songyu hurriedly said: "Gunner, fire immediately!" Qian Songyu was also a tanker, and he knew that it is very important to attack the enemy first on the battlefield. If this shell hits the Japanese tank, the Japanese tank will not be able to shoot itself again. up!That's why Qian Songyu ordered the gunner to fire first.

The gunner said loudly: "Understood!" Qian Songyu then felt the turret lightly for a while. He was too familiar with that feeling, that is, the vibration when the main gun fired. Qian Songyu felt relieved and thought: "It should be fine, we The probability of this shell hitting is quite high, as long as it hits the Japanese tank, it will pose no threat to us.”

But at this moment, Qian Songyu heard the anxious voice of the gunner: "Not good! Wrong call!"

Qian Songyu hurriedly said, "What's wrong?"

The gunner replied: "Cannonball, I shot the cannonball wrongly. I wanted to break the armored projectile, but it turned into a grenade!"

Qian Songyu thought in his heart: "It turned into a grenade! The lethality of the grenade is not enough to destroy the Japanese tank! Then we are still in danger!" Qian Songyu was thinking, when he suddenly heard the gunner say excitedly: " The Japanese tank was destroyed by the grenade!"

Qian Songyu hurriedly turned the periscope to look, and he found that the Japanese tank had stopped, and the gun barrel turned downward at an angle, obviously it had been blown up!Qian Songyu thought in his heart: "What's going on? Our grenades have blown up all the Japanese tanks! It must be that the Japanese tanks have greatly reduced the thickness of their armor and weakened their defenses, so they can't stop the grenade attack. gone."

Qian Songyu was thinking about it when he suddenly heard his subordinates say loudly in the communicator: "Reporting to the commander, there is a Japanese tank unit at the twelve o'clock direction of our tank formation!"

Qian Songyu was startled when he heard the report, and thought: "Japanese troops appeared at our twelve o'clock direction? Doesn't that mean that we are completely blocked by Japanese troops, and our 'death turn tactic' has failed! What can we do? We have a small number of tanks. If we can’t give full play to our quality advantages and go to fight with the Japanese army, then we will be in a disadvantageous position! So, we must retreat now! Together with the tank units of the other two regiments Together!"

Thinking of this, Qian Songyu immediately ordered: "Attention all units, retreat to the north! Open fire freely!" But just after the order was issued, he heard the report of the battalion commander: "Our department has already exchanged fire with the Japanese army and cannot retreat!" The second battalion commander and the third The battalion commander also reported one after another: "Our department has exchanged fire with the Japanese army!"

Qian Songyu screamed in his heart, thinking: "This is bad, we are really entangled by the Japanese army! Then we can only drive back the Japanese tanks first!" So Qian Songyu ordered: "All units , kill the Japanese tanks with all your strength!" After giving this order, he contacted the brigade commander Congcheng and said: "Our department has already exchanged fire with the Japanese army, please send troops to support it."

Congcheng hurriedly asked: "Did our 'death turn tactic' not work?"

Qian Songyu said: "The Japanese tanks are very fast. We did not get rid of them, but they caught up with them. Now we are fighting with them."

Immediately from the city, the tank troops of the seventh and eighth regiments were ordered to drop the infantry and attack the Japanese tank troops. The seventh and eighth regiments left the infantry behind and drove to the battle site as fast as possible.

Outside of Huangshiling, the Ninth Regiment and the First Japanese Tank Regiment were engaged in a battle. The Japanese tanks gave full play to their superiority in numbers and rushed towards the tanks of Lin Yuan's troops like the tide, while the tanks of Lin Yuan's troops gave full play to their quality The advantage is to use the hk-1 fire control system to fire at the Japanese tanks at a long distance.

Under the advanced fire control system, Japanese tanks will be hit by armor-piercing shells as soon as they enter a distance of 500 meters. Japanese tanks have abandoned their thick armor and are simply vulnerable to armor-piercing shells. , A dozen or so tanks were destroyed soon. They either had their commanders and gunners killed, and withdrew from the battlefield, or were sacrificed and blasted off their turrets. However, there were too many Japanese tanks. The tanks finally pulled Lin Yuan's tanks into range.
