Chapter 375: The Sixty-fifth Division of the Battle of Libei

In the previous chapter, the name of Wei Gang, the commander of the machine gun battalion, was mistaken in several places, and in some places the name of Zhang Jinsong, the commander of the reconnaissance battalion, was used, and I apologized to everyone.

After entering the global Industrial Revolution, metal smelting and machine manufacturing have developed rapidly, and the replacement of tanks has been rapid, from the original Battle of the Somu River (the first battle in the army, when the British called the tank a water tank for secrecy, and the "tank" is the Chinese transliteration of the English "water tank") to the Battle of the Kursk Tank in World War II, a new model of tank will come out every few years.

Although the tank in the later period developed rapidly, the crew was always maintained at about four people, and there were basically no major changes, only the Japanese Type 90 made an attempt with three personnel.

In the nineties of the last century, the Japanese 90 tank was once considered the best tank in the world (comprehensive performance), and at one time occupied the first place in the ranking of world tanks.

(The second is the German Leopard series, the third is the US Army's 1 Abramus, the fourth is the Russian T80 and subsequent derivatives, the fifth is France's Leclery, the sixth is the British Challenger, and then the Italian ram or called the wall hammer, Israel's Merkava, etc., of course, this is just a simple approximate ranking, does not represent the real combat effectiveness, for example, the Japanese ninety type, which ranks first, although the comprehensive performance is very good, but also exposes the shortcomings of the loader that often fails, In addition, the price of this tank is very expensive, the cost-effectiveness ratio is not good, and the local war of small intensity can be dealt with, and it will be difficult to hold on for a long time if it rises to the level of the national war. There is also Israel's Merkava, this tank is the world's most combat-tested land weapons, firepower and protection can be called the most tanks in all countries, but there must be a loss, Merkava's protection is very good, but its mobility is very average, plus its own weight is very large, the effect of urban combat is very good, if it is placed in the area of many lakes and swamps, it is difficult to play a role. Let's talk about the US military's 1, this is a classic land weapon of the US military, and it is also the home weapon of the US Army, with good comprehensive performance, and strong firepower after being equipped with a special depleted uranium armor-piercing projectile, but it is equipped with a gas turbine, which has harsh requirements for the battlefield environment, and the pressure on logistics support is also great, this tank may be suitable for the US military, if other countries are equipped with this weapon, they may not be able to exert the same combat effectiveness as the US army, so it is very difficult to distinguish between good and bad weapons. The correct way to say it should be that the most suitable is the best. After several years of research, people in the tank industry believe that the three-person configuration is unreasonable, and one of the main reasons is that the automatic loader that can theoretically replace the second gunner often fails, and this is still in peacetime, if the failure rate is higher in the fierce combat environment on the battlefield, and once the loader fails, it is equivalent to making the tank lose its combat effectiveness, at least it also greatly reduces the combat effectiveness, so it is more safe to load the ammunition artificially, and the tank crew is restored to four. The above method is just a statement and is for reference only.

The book was picked up last time, and the company commander Li Yuming's car, which was also the tank turret on the command vehicle, slowly turned the muzzle of the gun, and then the red light flashed, and with a "tom", a broken armor bullet shot out.

This shell tore through the air and came into violent contact with the jeep, don't look at the smaller caliber of Stuart's main gun, but that depends on what kind of opponent it is, it is not small to deal with the jeep, the trigger fuse exploded immediately after touching the jeep, "boom" A fireball rose into the air, the jeep and the shell exploded at the same time, the gasoline in the fuel tank collapsed everywhere with the fire, needless to say, not even a whole corpse fell.

The company commander's command vehicle launched an attack, and of course other tanks could not be idle, and all the cars that had not had time to run away were exploded with a burst of artillery fire, and the people on the cars were also turned into fragments and sparks like the cars, and then they were strafed with machine guns, and there were few people left.

Lucky enough a few people who didn't die screamed and ran around, no one organized resistance, and no one wanted to resist, using the rifles in their hands to fight against the tanks? Isn't that a lack of heart! Whoever doesn't run is a fool.

Li Yuming, who was looking out from the periscope, frowned and shouted: "Attention, catch a few of those chaotic soldiers back alive, and ask where their brigade headquarters is." ”

The tank roared, and a puff of black smoke rushed over, driving a bunch of stragglers like sheep into an open area in the middle of the tank, and there was no need to shoot against the frightened soldiers.

It is a very terrible thing to be pointed at by the artillery and machine guns of the tank, and ordinary people have a sense of fear in the face of huge steel weapons, not to mention that these iron guys are still covered with blood and broken meat, these chaotic soldiers tremble, throw the weapons in their hands aside, raise their hands high, kneel on the ground and surrender.

Li Yuming lifted the top cover of the turret and was about to jump out, when a soldier stopped him: "Company commander, it's dangerous outside, just go out." ”

Li Yuming was a little moved, this soldier knew the danger outside but wanted to keep his company commander in the car, he went to carry out the mission, is this a good soldier, patted this soldier on the shoulder: "How can there be no danger in a war, and the tank will be squeamish after sitting for such a while?" Not so strict. ”

After speaking, Li Yuming jumped out of the tank, and the danger was indeed there, although most of the soldiers of the 160 Brigade of the Kuomintang were running away indiscriminately, but from time to time there were stray bullets flying not too far from him.

There were only 30 soldiers in the eight tanks, and when the soldiers saw that the company commander had jumped out, they jumped out of each car, and two people followed Li Yuming and walked over together. Of course, there were two people in the car to deal with emergencies, one was the driver, and the other was armed with weapons.

As if he hadn't seen these bullets flying around, Li Yuming walked in front of a few kneeling soldiers and kicked a soldier's buttocks: "Don't fuck pretending to be a grandson, our People's Liberation Army will not kill prisoners, put your hands behind your head, and get up." ”

Several prisoners stood up tremblingly, they had long understood the policy of the PLA, in fact, there was no need to be so afraid, it was the assault of the tank unit just now that frightened them.

"Don't bother, our People's Liberation Army treats prisoners preferentially, hurry up and say, where is the brigade headquarters of your 160 Brigade? Where is your brigade commander? "Li Yuming is a little impatient, these tanks of theirs are the attack knives of the whole brigade, and it is not good to stay here all the time.

Several prisoners looked at each other, and one of the prisoners said cowardly: "Sir, there is no brigade headquarters for a long time, your artillery on the Eighth Route is too fierce, and more than an hour ago, our brigade headquarters was flattened by your artillery fire, and many people died." ”

Li Yuming: "The brigade headquarters has been flattened, where did your brigade commander go?" It's the one named Huang Zhiyu, won't even he be blown up and killed? ”

The prisoner smiled bitterly: "Sir, our brigade commander was not killed by your artillery, but he was killed by your tank just now, and our brigade commander is in the jeep, if you don't believe it, you can go over and take a look." ”

Li Yuming and the soldiers followed behind these prisoners to the jeep that had just been blown up, and everyone scratched their heads, they were quite excited, thinking that they could get a big head, not to mention any big heads, even their bodies were gone, and a few corpses in the car couldn't be seen, who could understand whether it was Huang Zhiyu, the ** major general and brigade commander.

Several soldiers coughed and sighed: "I know how good this kid is in the car, we can't put a shot, I will definitely be able to catch him alive, but now I can't even find the dead one, and the duck in my hand is flying again." ”

Li Yuming was angry by the grumbling words of the soldiers, and knew that these guys wanted to make meritorious contributions and wanted to get sick, so he had to command these prisoners to search all over the ground to see if they could find anything or objects that could prove Huang Zhiyu's identity from the rags in one place.

Not to mention, it really pays off, these prisoners are all brigade personnel, and they are also familiar with their brigade commander Huang Zhiyu, it took a short time to find a pocket watch and a pistol from the bombed messy car, and a prisoner took these two things and said to Li Yuming: "Sir, this is our brigade commander's gun and pocket watch, yes, we all know each other." ”

At this time, Li Yuming was happy, and shouted at several of his soldiers: "Okay, don't mumble, our brigade commander said that death is also considered meritorious, and knocking out the enemy's brigade headquarters is a great achievement, and carrying the walkie-talkie back." ”

Li Yuming, who took the microphone, reported the situation to the brigade commander Li Yong with a smile: "Brigade commander, I am Li Yuming, we killed the brigade headquarters of the 160th Brigade, well, Huang Zhiyu was also killed, it was identified by the prisoner, his pistol and pocket watch were found, we asked for instructions on the next task." ”

"Good job, don't stop and continue to advance, find a way to determine the line, attack the target, the Kuomintang reorganized the 65th Division, and blitzed the 65th Division with sudden movements, do you understand?"

"Go ahead, attack the target, the Kuomintang reorganized the headquarters of the 65th Division, understood." After answering the brigade commander's order, Li Yuming commanded eight tanks, turned the head of the vehicle, and rushed to the headquarters of the 65th Division.

The independent brigade used sudden movements and ferocious attacks to defeat the 160th Brigade at once, and the speed of the attack was so fast that the Sixth Column Teaching Brigade that held its position behind it was a little unthinkable, isn't this brigade the main force of the Kuomintang, why is it so vulnerable.

First of all, the 160 Brigade was consumed by the teaching brigade of the People's Liberation Army, and later Li Yong tried to get rid of the tanks and artillery, which is equivalent to knocking out the tiger's claws and teeth, coupled with the strong firepower and sudden tactical actions of the independent brigade, it is not uncommon for the 160 Brigade to be defeated.

The 160 Brigade has collapsed, and it is in a state of being encircled and suppressed on the entire battlefield, and it is a foregone conclusion that it will be eaten by the independent brigade of the People's Liberation Army.

Wang Chengde, the political commissar who followed Li Yong, reminded: "Dayong, it's very good to kill the enemy's 160th Brigade, isn't it a bit too risky to attack the enemy's 65th Division again?" Our task is to hold our positions with the Sixth Column, not to engage in assault. ”~~~~! ~!
