Anti-Japanese heroic righteousness

The reason why it is strange is that the cannon has a slender barrel, and it is aimed straight ahead. The entire gun mount is hidden in a fortress reinforced by logs and sandbags. A rectangular gun muzzle is like a beast with an open mouth. It depends on the situation. , the barrel rotates, and the entire fan-shaped area at the front can be covered by it.

But these are not weird reasons. What is really weird is that with this kind of protection, it can survive the attack of the national army intact, and is it worthy of such solemnity by the soldiers?

Although the 46th regiment did not carry heavy artillery fire, there were enough Qiwushan artillery, and this kind of firepower was something that could be solved by a few artillery pieces.

"Aren't you all sure about this thing?" Cao Guoliang really didn't see how powerful it was.

"Master seat..." Zhang Zui said with a mournful face, "You don't know, this is a tank, and the little devil repeatedly reinforced the tank with logs and sandbags. What kind of guns won't work?"

"What... the little devil actually buried the tank in the ground?" Cao Guoliang was really shocked this time.

Right now, the strategic resources of the island army are extremely tight. Although the Type [-] and Type [-] new tanks have been developed, they are also used to equip the most needed troops at the front.

The island army never thought that the Allied forces would attack the Philippines so quickly, so it is impossible for the new tanks to equip the Jiannan Army.

The No.18 Division and the First Guard Division originally had some Type [-] and Type [-] tanks, but in the battle of the Indochina Peninsula, they almost escaped with all their heavy equipment. It is possible to re-equip them with new tanks in such a short time.

Therefore, the most tanks they own are the old Type [-] and Type [-].

This kind of thing with an armor thickness of more than ten to twenty millimeters is not enough in front of the Sherman equipped by the national army. When facing the enemy head-on, at a distance of 1000 or 57 meters, Sherman hits them one by one, but the enemy The Type 1000 63mm short-barreled cannon can never break through the 500mm steel plate on the front of Sherman within [-] meters or [-] meters away.

Not to mention the Type 33, it is a light tank with a total combat weight of just over seven tons, while the Sherman has a total combat weight of [-] tons, and the two are not at the same level at all.

The Sherman 76mm tank gun can completely destroy two enemy tanks at a distance of 1000 to [-] meters.

The commanders of the island army obviously knew their own shortcomings, so they never had the mental preparation to confront the national army tanks, but chose to bury them in the soil to serve as support firepower on the defense line.

The armor of the tank itself, coupled with the protection of logs and sandbags, can indeed achieve the effect of an iron wall, but the biggest miraculous effect is its firepower. The turret can rotate at will, and there is no dead angle at [-] degrees in front. Even if there is, there is still a gun under the barrel The extra care of the machine gun is enough to ensure foolproof.

But this is not the most shameful.

The national army tried to confuse the public with guns, and took advantage of the advantages of equipped with gas masks to make a surprise attack, but the enemy immediately resorted to biochemical weapons, such as erosive mustard gas and Lewis gas, which can quickly cause poisoning if they come into contact with the skin without breathing. The poisonous gas bombs that affect the combat effectiveness due to symptoms are all thrown out in one go. Even the soldiers of the national army are brave, but there is really nothing wrong with these poisonous bullets that will kill you if you rub them, and the poisonous gas that will hurt you if you touch them.

It's not that the national army is incompetent, but that the little devil is too cunning and vicious.

In view of the unpredictable situation on the battlefield, the offensive was temporarily suspended, and the 46th and 47th regiments were on standby at the front to further improve the fortifications and confront the enemy.

Cao Guoliang left in a hurry without even being able to see the enemy's defense line. He didn't say a word along the way, and kept a ball of fire until the headquarters let it out. He jumped up and greeted the little devil's eight generations of ancestors.

"Okay, if we can scold the enemy to death, we don't need us anymore, let's think of a way to solve this situation?" Wang Teng said worriedly, and he didn't expect this result.

"How to solve it? Now the enemy has rationally used all the advantages in the entire jungle. There are also external factors such as poisonous bullets and gas bombs. Any of them is an obstacle that we can overcome. Even if Lao Tzu's soldiers are not afraid of death, but They are also flesh and blood, and it is impossible to cross their blockade, tell me, how can we solve this situation?" Cao Guoliang said angrily.

Wang Teng scratched his head with a helpless expression, obviously he couldn't come up with any good solution.

The two of them just stood there and stared at each other stupidly, both of them didn't know why.

At this moment, a staff officer came in to report, and the army on the left sent a message that the aerial bombing just now had little effect, and did not cause many substantial casualties to the island army.

The little devil should have made a lot of anti-explosion preparations on the ground, such as tunnels, anti-explosion holes, etc., but the little devil on the tree can't be bombed at all. In addition, the error of bombing according to the coordinates is also large, and it can fall into the small There are even fewer aerial bombs in the devil's irregular fortifications.

Therefore, the second attack organized by Duan Ruyi still failed. However, they have not discovered that the enemy is using poisonous bullets so far.

The last piece of news made the two more convinced that the poison bullet was just a personal act of the army in front of them, not a product of the little devil's army.

This is easier to handle, at least it will not equip the whole army.

But this is only a matter of time. The power of poisonous bullets is obvious to all. Who can guarantee that they will not spread quickly.

The key is to figure out what kind of toxin it is, and can an effective antidote be found?

I can't eat a big fat man in one bite, and the matter needs to be solved one by one. The two of them decided to start with this matter first.

Since the toxin is not an act of the military, it is only possible that it was taken from the jungle. At the same time, the two thought of the old patriarch Augustine Maris.

Bringing the guards and translators with them, the two immediately drove there.

The village is still peaceful and has not been affected by the sound of guns in the jungle.

Because they were here for the second time, and they had expressed their goodwill before. As soon as the convoy stopped, the villagers enthusiastically surrounded them, murmuring words that the soldiers could not understand.

Fortunately, there was an interpreter, and the interpreter told Cao Guoliang that the villagers hoped to get some food again. They lost the jungle they depended on for survival. Their lives were very difficult, and many old people and children were still hungry.

It's true that autumn hunters are everywhere, and even these aboriginals with well-developed limbs and simple minds understand it.

Cao Guoliang was also generous, and immediately ordered the adjutant to arrange to bring them a cart of supplies.

As soon as the news was announced, the natives cheered immediately.

Patriarch Augustine Maris, who had been alarmed by the sound of the car, also came out of the house. He also smiled when he heard the news, and kept clasping his hands to Cao Guoliang, expressing his gratitude beyond words.
