"What the hell are they trying to do?" As the battle continued, Hube found that the fog of war in front of him not only did not dissipate, but the situation on the battlefield became more confusing. If the assault of the Huaxia tank was carried out in order to provide an opportunity for the wheeled vehicles behind, then now? What will the other side do when the next wave of wheeled vehicles in China is blocked by German armored vehicles? The other party's feeling is a bit like a tactic of adding oil, sending his own vitality into this meat grinder little by little. And then let yourself eat a little bit? It's not scientific! The Chinese general on the opposite side is not a German spy! They definitely do it for a purpose!

"The situation doesn't seem to be bad, although we have lost a little more, but the proportion of tanks is relatively low, from the economy and the crew, we should be the one who takes advantage, Zhou Xuan, this guy is right, if the wheeled combat vehicle can share the firepower for the tank, then let the wheeled armored vehicle lose more!" Xu Huaide naturally did not give the Germans a record in vain, and he did not gain any advantage on the field by using the almost brutal attack on Huaxia in the early stage. The only good thing was that the number of German tanks and infantry fighting vehicles was greatly consumed, and of course, the losses of the Chinese were also very large. So now the question is, what is the purpose of Huaxia paying such a big price?

Now the Germans' tank destroyer No. 4 should be the bare-pole commander, right? Xu Huaide silently calculated the changes in the composition of the opponent's forces, the tank destroyer is definitely not suitable for carrying out the attack mission alone, and the problem of too small a firing range and no turret directly affects the perception and battlefield reaction of this weapon! It's like the case of a machine gun that fires fiercely but never attacks alone, and the machine gun is the heart of fire support, but it must be accompanied by the rest of the infantry squad to carry out the mission. Xu Huaide himself was much more meticulous than Hu Bei at the beginning, and he broke up the establishment of his tank destroyers and incorporated them into various armored companies. And not like Hubey, a group of tanks, a group of tank destroyers. As a result, once the tank is hit by the opponent's focus, the flank of the tank destroyer will be seriously threatened. The sides of the No. 4 tank destroyer are quite fragile, on the same level as the historical leopard.

Xu Huaide's original tactic was to let the tank destroyer give full play to its firepower advantage, as a support point in the armored attack, and even if it was used together, it was necessary to ensure the safety of the two wings, which was possible in Huaxia at that time, because the Type 29 tank had a certain advantage over the No. 4 tank, but if the Germans played like this, they should first ensure that the number of No. 4 tanks on the flanks was higher than that of Huaxia, and ensure the safety of the two wings, so as to give full play to the frontal attack and defense of the tank destroyers. And the Germans made a mistake on this issue. It is true that the tank destroyer is not said to be used only for defense, and there is only one principle for its use, that is, to ensure that there is no threat in all directions except the front! He can rely on cover, offense, and allies for defense, and tanks for offense!

"If we continue to throw troops into both wings, we can completely cut off the spearhead of the other side. However, this seems to be a bit different from the defensive counter-attack plan that was developed at the beginning. An officer looked at the situation of the two troops on the sand table and said with some hesitation.

"At the beginning, of course, it was defense and then counterattack, but defense is also about posture, we can't let the Germans put themselves in a position and then attack, we have to decide where to fight and when to fight. Although it is a defense, we must take the initiative, for example, like now, the Germans have suffered heavy losses in tanks, of course, we have paid a lot of money, but it is difficult for the German army with only tank destroyers to organize an effective attack, unless the Germans retreat now, otherwise their situation will be a dilemma. If Kruger wants to change, he will have to reinforce Hubey, then we can use Hube's group as a bait to attract the entire German army, and then slowly wear them down until finally they can't hold on, and then we can fight back. Xu Huaide sneered.

Of course, now Hu Bei can't find out about this problem, because Huaxia hasn't let his head break the bloodstream, although the losses are heavy, but in terms of the proportion of results and losses, the two sides are almost equal, which has never appeared in the original battle of the same level! Whether offensive or defensive, the German armored forces always have to suffer a little loss in the face of the Chinese armored forces, and this time, he seems to have taken some advantage! Of course, Hube was not a mediocre man, he was well aware that the loss of tank troops had led to the emptiness of the two wings, so he did not rush to attack, but waited for the mechanized infantry to come up and used the latter's tanks and anti-aircraft guns to make up for the holes in the defensive line! However, although it is blocked, the mechanized infantry division is more accompanied by tank attacks, and it is an auxiliary force for armored assault, and if it is hard to face the opponent, then it will be worse in terms of speed and strength.

After stabilizing the battle line, the Germans' No. 4 tank destroyer continued to attack, but although a second wave of attacks was quickly put together, Xu Huaide did not have a high opinion of this wave of attacks. "As long as you throw away another batch of tanks, Hu Beike will really be in a dilemma, and it will not be easy to retreat!" Xu Huaide commented on the situation on the battlefield, but no matter what, the direct and hardest confrontation between the Chinese and German armored forces finally kicked off, and the Type 29 tank destroyer and the No. 4 tank destroyer were the most suitable vehicles for the two troops! Both countries want to see which of these two vehicles is stronger!

"This is definitely a duel between a group of rhinos, and when I saw the low shape and long barrels sticking out of front in the other party's field of vision, I knew that the most critical moment had come, this was the most devastating weapon in China and even in the entire Entente bloc, and the glory of the Imperial armored forces had been wiped out by it and the 90mm gun above. And today we're going to change that. "The Germans were not nervous but not excited when they were about to go to war, but they were excited to meet their opponents!

"The distance is 800 meters! Fire! "The first round of collision between the two sides unfolded at 800 meters! Both sides opened fire almost simultaneously! Bursts of fire burst out from the heavy tank destroyer's frontal armor, scattering fragments from the air and leaving deep or shallow bullet marks on the heavy armor. The first blow from both sides, though violent, was not fatal, and after a short pause and adaptation, the two teams continued to approach!

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "THE BARREL OF TANK DESTROYER NO. 4 CONSTANTLY FLASHED WITH DEADLY FIRE, AND AT THIS MOMENT THE ADVANTAGE OF THE RATE OF FIRE OF THE GERMAN'S LONG-BARRELED 75MM GUN WAS VIVIDLY REFLECTED, COMPARED WITH THE SHELLS OF THE 90MM GUN, THE WEIGHT AND SIZE OF THE 75MM GUN WERE OBVIOUSLY MUCH SMALLER, WHICH WAS MORE CONDUCIVE TO LOADING. And the explosive power of the strong Caucasian is indeed terrifying, and the explosive speed of the human loader on the American M1A1 in later generations is faster than that of the automatic state, and the instantaneous output of the German elite gunner in this plane can also be described as amazing!

Like raindrops of shells have fallen on the charging Huaxia 29 tank destroyer, one after another blow to the original solid armor soon appeared metal fatigue, many theoretically unpenetrable shells hit the impact of the armor plate after the back plate cracked, although there is an inner lining layer, but the metal fragments produced after the high-speed impact still broke through the protection of the lining in the narrow body splashing and ejection. Some Type 29 tanks lost their combat effectiveness as a result.

The two sides tried their best to approach and attack the opponent, but in the end, to the surprise of both China and Germany, it was not the Type 29 tank destroyer that used a larger caliber gun, nor the No. 4 tank destroyer with an extremely fast rate of fire and a very high muzzle velocity, but a slightly further back. The Type 29 assault gun with the largest caliber direct-aim gun on the battlefield! ACCORDING TO THE RECORDS, THE ASSAULT GUN, NUMBERED 101, OPENED THE RECORD AT A DISTANCE OF 800 METERS, AND A 122MM CAP-PIERCING SHELL MADE A GRACEFUL ARC IN THE AIR AND SMASHED INTO THE FRONTAL HIGH-INCLINATION ARMOR OF A TANK DESTROYER NO. 4! The cap and the surface of the armor shattered at the same time, and then the round and blunt warhead smashed through the armor of the No. 4 tank destroyer like a heavy hammer!

The blow was so violent that one could clearly see a large collapse in the left-center-left position of the tank destroyer! An entire steel plate was shattered, and then the shell burrowed headlong into the inside of the hull! After a loud bang, the powerful 75MML60 cannon was blasted into the sky with a violent explosion, and then the twisted barrel was directly inserted into the earth, like a cavalry gun discarded by an ancient knight after defeat!

"Is it true that the bigger the caliber, the more righteous it is?" A Chinese armored soldier who witnessed this scene was shocked and said, 800 meters away! This is something that even a professional tank destroyer can't do, but an assault gun that was originally designed to deal with fortifications and provide fire support can do it, you must know that when playing vertical armor, the performance of the 122MML35 gun is not as good as that of the 90MML45 gun. But in actual combat, it is the opposite, which is very puzzling!

In fact, when dealing with large-angle armor, the larger the caliber of the shell, the better the effect, and with the closer the distance, the penetration depth of large-caliber low-speed artillery exceeds that of small-caliber high-speed artillery at long distances, for example, the Leopard's 75MML70 is better than 88MML56 at medium and short range when hitting 30-degree inclined armor, but the penetration depth is flat or overtaken after the distance. And this effect will become greater and greater with the increase of inclination, according to the Huaxia test, in the face of 55 degrees of inclined armor, the penetration depth of the 122MML35 gun is higher than that of 90MML45, of course, this is just measured at the test site, in fact, the troops have not been notified.

"Although the power is great, the rate of fire is too slow! I can't hurt the rate of fire of a shot in 25 seconds! "The 101 car that has just achieved the record has no time to rejoice, because they now need to put a shell weighing 24KG and a propellant bag into the barrel, the 122MM gun used by the 29 type assault gun is divided into shells, and the weight and size of the bullet are more amazing, so that the low rate of fire caused by it can only shoot black guns in the back, the 75MM gun can shoot more than 8 rounds a minute, the 90MM gun is still achievable with 6 rounds of hard work, and the 122MM gun can be used at most 2.5 rounds a minute! Although the power is great enough, the actual combat effectiveness is still discounted!

The 101 car was lucky, because he was the first Huaxia combat vehicle to destroy the No. 4 tank destroyer from the front, and as the distance narrowed, the two sides gradually reached the distance where the bullets and bullets were biting and penetrating! The tank destroyers of both sides fired frantically at a distance of less than 600 meters, and the vehicles without turrets at close range really suffered, and they struggled to move the tracks to turn the body, put the target in the narrow field of view of the gun mirror, and fired. The high rate of fire of the Germans was offset by the narrow firing range of the artillery, and they needed to turn more angles to aim at their opponents.

"Damn, it's those wheeled armored vehicles with 6-pounder guns again, don't expose the sides, turn to the left!" A tank destroyer commander observes his surroundings through the conning tower on the roof of the vehicle, while his gunner tries to convince the driver to turn right, as he sees a Type 29 tank aiming at him! The battlefield was so chaotic that tank destroyers moved around the ground like slow-moving turtles. While the covering tanks and various vehicles strive to attack the opponent with the advantage of mobility.

A round of armor-piercing shells roared and flew over the battlefield, the heavy armor was almost like paper paste in front of the armor-piercing bullets fired at a very close range, the warhead tore through the armor and then squeezed in, with the armor and shell fragments rotated and penetrated into the inside of the hull, and then in a firelight, the expensive chariot representing the highest land combat weapon technology on both sides was blown apart, leaving huge wreckage on the battlefield, like the corpse of the god of war that fell on the battlefield after Ragnarok. Light vehicles on both sides constantly sought cover from the terrain and the wreckage of the vehicle, and then fired at MK103 guns or 6-pounder guns. However, there is no place to be safe in this chaotic battlefield, when you hide the body behind the wreckage of a tank, it is also possible to notify you to expose the side back to another black hole gun, and it only takes a few seconds for the vehicle worth tens of thousands of marks and at least 4 lives on it to disappear into a cloud of flames!

The tragic exchange was the theme of the battlefield, relying on the support of the powerful and backward Type 29 assault gun and the slightly superior technical advantage of the Huaxia tank destroyer. As well as the huge number of wheeled combat vehicles, Huaxia gradually gained the initiative, and tank destroyers No. 4 were destroyed by shells coming from all directions. As the No. 4 tank was suppressed by the Huaxia Type 29 tank, Hubei's attack was completely disintegrated, and the No. 4 tank destroyers that accompanied the attack were finally withdrawn to three out of ten! In less than 4 hours, Hube had almost lost more than half of his heavily armored units! Even put a lot of heavy equipment from the mechanized infantry division in the back!
