"General, telegram from the commander!" In a forest not far from the battlefield, tens of thousands of British troops were hiding in the woods. This is exactly the armored unit formed by the British Army, which was formed as the 1st Armored Division of the British Army. The division totaled more than 11,000 men and was equipped with 115 British-produced 'Hunter' 1 tanks. In fact, this is nothing more than a real force! The British Expeditionary Force was beaten by the German Army's armored forces on the battlefield in France, which made the British Army enthusiastic about building its own armored forces. It's just that the British Army lacks the relevant technology and can only explore it on its own. After spending more than half a year, the British finally came up with their own tank, and named it 'Hunter', which looked powerful and domineering, but in fact, it was quite rudimentary, it was simply a square steel box on the chassis of the tractor, and then a tank gun and a machine gun were installed!

The Hunter 1 tank, 4.3 meters long, 2.1 meters wide and 2.2 meters high, with 18 mm thick frontal armor and 10 mm thick side armor, weighs 10.8 tons, and is armed with a 37 mm tank gun and a 7.92 mm machine gun. The maximum road speed is 20 km/h and the maximum off-road speed is 7 km/h. The overall performance is very rubbish!

To be precise, the performance of the British Army's 'Hunter' 1 tank is at most equivalent to the actual T3 tank manufactured by the Chinese Army in that year, but the T3 tank was not mass-produced. It was not until the T4 'Wild Wolf' light tank was developed that it began to be officially equipped on a large scale. The 'Hunter' Type 1 tank of the armored unit of the British Army is simply weak in front of the armored forces of the Chinese Army! Not even with the T5 'Cheetah' medium tank. T4 Wolf light tank alone. to be able to ravage them completely!

The commander of the 1st Armoured Division of the British Army was Lieutenant General Victor. For his armored forces. He is very confident. Of course, he also knows that there is still a big gap between the armored forces of the British Army and the armored forces of the Chinese Army! However, he firmly believes that if he is given another ten years, even five years, the armored forces of the British Army will definitely be able to catch up with or even surpass the Chinese Army! It's just that there is no time left in Britain now! Both the Germans and the Chinese had already landed in Britain, and Britain had already announced its surrender to Germany. In this war, Britain has already lost a lot! This made Lieutenant General Victor very sad, but there was no way! It wasn't for him to decide!

"Guys, let's act, the Chinese have broken through the defense line of the infantry guys, and His Excellency the Commander wants us to stop the Chinese! This time, we finally have the opportunity to meet the world's number one armored unit! Lieutenant General Victor shouted loudly!

"Let's go, teach those yellow-skinned monkeys a lesson, and drive them all out of England!" The officers and men of the 1st Armored Division of the British Army were in high spirits and began to launch tanks. Rush out of the woods! They are eager to fight, and even more eager to fight with the strong! Merely. They seem to have forgotten that such a battle, if they lose, will pay with their lives!

At 9:22 a.m., the 1st Armored Division of the British Army appeared on the battlefield, and they entered the battlefield from the south. When hundreds of tanks entered the battlefield, they were immediately discovered by the squadron! It's just that unlike the British who expected a steel collision between the two sides, it was the dive bombers in the sky who attacked them first!

At this time, there were still more than two dozen dive bombers on the battlefield that had not yet dropped bombs. The appearance of the British armored forces suddenly made them rush away like sharks smelling blood!

"Boom!" When the unique sound of dive bombers performing dive bombing sounded, the officers and men of the 1st Armored Division of the British Army were dumbfounded!

"Damn, those vile yellow-skinned monkeys, don't they dare to have a duel with us as a decent knight? It is shameless to use aircraft to meddle in the battle of armored forces! Lieutenant General Victor poked his head out of a tank and yelled!

However, in response to Lieutenant General Victor, it was the heavy aerial bombs that fell from the sky!

"Boom! Rumble! "One aerial bomb after another exploded in the ranks of the British Army's armored units, and the heavy aerial bombs were so powerful that the shock wave of the explosion was able to lift off the British Army's 'Hunter' 1 tank. The fragments produced by the explosion of the bomb can also easily shred the armor of the Hunter 1 tank.

When more than 20 dive bombers finished dropping their bombs and swaggered away, only piles of scrap metal were still burning and smoking on the ground! Of the more than 100 tanks of the 1st Armored Division of the British Army, more than 30 were destroyed in the bombardment. Many of them were affected by the explosion and were no longer able to move! It can be said that in this wave of bombing, the 1st Armored Division of the British Army lost half of its tanks!

"Holy shit, those guys in the Naval Aviation, it's too much to grab meat in our bowls! The 1st Battalion is in the center, the 2nd and 3rd Battalions are outflanked on both sides, and not a single British tank will be spared! "Major General Dai Yulong, commander of the 8th Armored Brigade, ordered! Since the armored units of the Chinese Army were put into the battlefield, the most battles they participated in were to break through the enemy's defenses and tear through the enemy's strong defenses for the infantry, thus seizing the enemy's positions! Even on the battlefields of North America, there was almost no fight with the enemy's armored forces! Now the Anglitz's armored forces have finally appeared, and although the British's tanks are more rubbish, the sense of accomplishment is better than bullying those infantry, right? Thus, the 8th Panzer Brigade has already treated the 1st Panzer Division of the British Army as meat in a bowl. As a result, he didn't expect to be robbed of half by the naval aviation, which made Major General Dai Yulong angry!

Under the orders of Major General Dai Yulong, the 3 tank battalions of the 8th Armored Brigade began to kill the 1st Armored Division of the British Army! The T5 'Cheetah' medium tank of the 1st Battalion was responsible for the frontal assault, and the other two tank battalions were T4 'Wolf' light tanks, which were responsible for outflanking from the left and right, and trying to take out all the British tanks!

The speed of the Chinese tank is much faster than that of the British Army's 'Hunter' 1 tank, and the thickness of the armor and the power of the tank gun are far above the 'Hunter' tank! In such a situation, the fate of the 1st Panzer Division of the British Army can be imagined!

"Prepare for battle, the Chinese are coming! Take out their tanks! The officers of the 1st Armoured Division of the British Army shouted loudly! However, the officers and men of the 1st Armored Division of the British Army, who had experienced such a battle for the first time and were completely inferior in numbers, were a little flustered and could not fully exert their combat effectiveness!

"There is a tank in the direction of two o'clock, at a distance of 340 meters, fire!" The commander of the T5 'Gepard' medium tank No. 8107 ordered!

The driver immediately stepped on the brakes, the tank stopped with a bang, and the gunner had already aimed at the British tank in the distance, and at the moment his own tank stopped, he immediately opened fire!

"Boom!" A 57-mm armor-piercing projectile flew out of the muzzle of a tank gun with a muzzle velocity of more than 800 meters, thinking about the target. In less than half a second, I saw the moving British tank slam and stop! The armor-piercing shell hit the frontal armor of this tank, and only 18 mm thick frontal armor simply could not withstand the design of the 57 mm tank gun at a distance of 340 meters. A hole larger than an adult's fist appeared directly in the frontal armor of that tank! The British tankmen inside were all killed after the tank was penetrated. And that tank also began to burn, billowing smoke!

After destroying one of the enemy's tanks, the tank number 8107 continued to advance, and the British only had a few dozen tanks left, while the 8th Panzer Brigade had nearly two hundred tanks, even if it was averaged, it would take four tanks to get one! This makes it very difficult for the tanks of the 8th Armored Brigade to achieve results!

"Dang!" A T5 'Cheetah' medium tank in progress was hit, and the frontal armor was hit by a British 37-mm tank gun! Fortunately, at a distance of 300 meters, the British 37-mm tank guns could not penetrate the frontal armor of the T5 'Gepard' medium tank, but only left a dent in the armor. The impact force when they were hit also caused the tankers inside the tank to fall, and some of them were unlucky, but they were only slightly injured!

Then the tank took revenge and smashed the tank that hit itself into scrap metal with one shot!

In the face of the siege of the 8th Armored Brigade of the Chinese Army, the 1st Armored Division of the British Army had almost no power to fight back! At a distance of 300 meters, the British tanks could not destroy the T5 "Gepard" medium tank of the Chinese Army, and of course, it was extremely lethal to the T4 "Wild Wolf" light tank! It's just that after being hit by the T5 'Cheetah' medium tank of the Chinese Army, the 1st Armored Division of the British Army has already suffered heavy losses, and the tanks that can continue to fight are very rare, and it cannot cause substantial damage to the 8th Armored Brigade of the Chinese Army at all!

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "Explosions kept ringing up, and tanks were being hit and then burning! However, the vast majority of the tanks that were hit were tanks of the 1st Armored Division of the British Army! The 8th Armored Brigade of the Chinese Army only occasionally had tanks hit, and the damage was basically T4 'Wild Wolf' light tanks! The gap between the two sides is too big, and in front of the armored forces of the Chinese army, the armored forces of the British army are simply a toddler! (To be continued......)
