The Russians are not stupid, and in the face of such an abnormal move by China, the Russian top brass has already thought that this may be a whole set to lure the enemy into the depths. So before the attack, Linevich specially left a retreat for himself, and arranged a large number of anti-tank guns on his flank positions to stabilize the position. At the same time, the attack is launched only after the long-range artillery is in place, so that even if something goes wrong on the front line, it can be intercepted with long-range fire. After all, if the 107MM cannon and howitzer were missed, they could really damage or destroy the No. 1 tank. After ensuring that his forces are deployed, the position is secure before attacking, which has become Linevich's number one choice.

The Russians are not stupid, and the Chinese Army is not stupid either. IF THE RUSSIANS ARE REALLY READY, IN THE FACE OF A WATER OF HIDDEN 47MM, 57MM OR EVEN 75MM RAPID-FIRE GUNS, TANK 1 IS REALLY NOT ENOUGH TO DRIVE. MOREOVER, THE RUSSIANS HAVE 107MM CANNONS, IN ORDER TO INCREASE MOBILITY AND FACILITATE RAPID ASSAULT AND OUTFLANKING, THE STRONGEST FIREPOWER OF THE CHINESE ARMY IS THE 105MM SHORT-BARRELED HOWITZER, WHICH IS FAR INFERIOR TO THE 107MM CANNON IN TERMS OF RANGE AND POWER. If you really wait for the opponent to set it up...... Maybe the attacking troops will really knock out a few teeth!

"We have to be proactive and disrupt the rhythm before the opponent has finished deploying. General Peng will arrive on the battlefield within 3 days. All we have to do now is to dangle our opponents to the death and buy time for the arrival of the main forces. We will fight against superior enemy forces in this battle, and we will have a lot of sacrifices, but I believe that it will be worth it. We've proven our worth on the Northern Front, and this time, we need to prove that we're the best! Cai Ye said at the pre-war mobilization meeting..........

The two main defensive support points of the Russian army are on the left and right sides of the position, the left side has been arranged in advance, and now only the blocking position on the right flank has not been completed. And Cai's main force will attack the right flank of the Russian army, with a specific strength of an armored brigade. In addition to assaulting the unfinished Russian defensive positions, he also needs to be on guard against the Russian army's armored forces at all times, while beating the opponent's positions to pieces. You also have to defend your flanks from being beaten to pieces! And the remaining brigade was used for response and defense.

The actions of the Huaxia Army were very rapid. At dawn on the second day when the Russians entered the battlefield, the main force of the First Independent Armored Brigade led by Cai Ye launched a surprise attack on the Russian army, and the spearhead of the entire armored force was still the battle-hardened Zhang Tianyi armored battalion, and this time, as the sharp knife of the general attack, Zhang Tianyi's armored battalion was once again strengthened. An entire company of assault guns was assigned to him, and these assault guns were responsible for attacking strong points of fire or opposing heavy armored vehicles in the rear of the tank. After completing the breakthrough, this armored heavy punch will be retracted by the brigade headquarters and then used uniformly to cover its own flanks.

"In the early morning of August 18, my comrades and I were sharing breakfast today, and as the supply lines were cut off, we had fewer and fewer reserves in our hands. Breakfast was only brown bread and boiled potatoes, and there was a so-called canned beef for 4 people, what kind of canned beef was this? It's just a mixture of cow's blood and flour! But even these things. I'm afraid it's the last meal for some people. ”。 …。

"While we were eating, the sudden sound of vibrations from the ground and the smoke and loud noises in the distance frightened everyone, and that was only one possibility, and that was the sound of hundreds of vehicles of all kinds. Our brethren who had fled from the Northern Front had heard of these invulnerable and ferocious firepower. We were also well prepared for this scenario, and the anti-aircraft guns of various calibers would be the key for us to fight them, and we quickly threw away our lunch boxes and rushed to the gun position, and then opened the ammunition boxes to prepare for battle. ”

"As an elite artillery crew selected to serve as the first line of defense, we have conducted many live-fire experiments and attacked moving targets. WE USED TO HAVE A LOT OF TRUST IN OUR 57MM FLAT-FIRING GUNS, AND WE ALSO HAD A LOT OF CONFIDENCE IN OUR TACTICAL SKILLS. IN OUR EYES, THOSE LITTLE GUYS UNDER 10 TONS ARE JUST CANS, AND THE 57MM GUN IN OUR HANDS IS THE BEST CANNING KNIFE! Our artillery is positioned in positions that are less easy to detect, and we calibrate the distance beforehand. ”…。

"But when we saw the tanks peeking out in the billowing smoke. A sense of powerlessness flooded through my heart, there were too many of them, and the speed of the impact was too fast! WEDGE-SHAPED SQUADS APPEARED IN FRONT OF US, AND MY ARTILLERY CREW BEGAN TO ATTACK WITH 57MM GUNS, AND THE FIRST SHOT WAS A TEST SHOT. missed, and then the second shot hit the frontal armor of a tank No. 1, the armor-piercing shell shredded the opponent's defenses, it stopped, and billowing smoke came out. BUT MORE TANKS OVERTOOK THE DESTROYED TANK AND BEGAN TO RETURN FIRE WITH 37MM GUNS AND MACHINE GUNS. ”。 …。

"THE FEROCIOUS FIREPOWER OF DOZENS OF 37MM RAPID-FIRE GUNS AND MACHINE GUNS COMPLETELY COVERED THE ENTIRE BATTLEFIELD, AND WE DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO ESTABLISH A COMPLETE TRENCH SYSTEM, EVERYONE TRIED TO KEEP THEIR POSTURE LOW, BUT EVEN SO, THEY STILL COULDN'T ESCAPE THE SCYTHE OF DEATH. One of his comrades tried to rely on the shield of the 57mm gun to provide cover, but it turned out that the shield could be easily destroyed by shells, and the fragments from the rupture would damage his companions. The 10 artillery crews responsible for the blocking were breached almost instantaneously...... And we destroyed less than 5 enemy tanks. After the war, a second lieutenant of Russian artillery recalled.

The first line of defense is designed to consume and stall time. The real adjustment was the second line of defense, which was not yet formed with more anti-tank guns and a sufficient number of infantry. The Russians expected this line to withstand the attack, and as many as 38 various flat-firing guns were placed in makeshift gun nests, which were more low and more difficult to spot and aim. At the same time, the thick rammed earth around it also provided some protection for the gunner. In addition, there is a platoon of soldiers next to each gun nest to provide protection, and these "human anti-tank guns" will serve as a last resort ......... if necessary.

AND BEHIND THESE FIXED ANTI-TANK GUN POSITIONS, THERE IS A T1S TANK AND T3 TANK, ARMED WITH 47MM FLAT-FIRE GUNS AND 57MM FLAT-FIRE GUNS. This is the most elite mobile anti-armor force in the hands of the Russians. They will give the opponent a fatal blow after the Chinese Army's offensive is blocked! However, at this time, the elite of the Chinese Army decisively chose a new tactic when facing the iron-clad defense line in front.

Outside the effective range of the opposing side, the charging armoured forces began to spread out in companies, and two armoured companies began to outflank the two flanks of the position, which was heavily defended, but did not form a complete line of defense with the rest of the troops. And after the tank dispersed, the No. 1 assault gun located in the rear began to appear in the Russians' field of vision, this weapon with the ability to kill any improvised bunker and target with one hit is the most terrifying existence in the attacking force!

AFTER FIRING A FEW SMOKE GRENADES, THE FRONTAL BREAKTHROUGH AND OUTFLANKING OF THE CHINESE ARMY WERE CARRIED OUT AT THE SAME TIME, ACCOMPANIED BY THE ROAR OF THE ENGINE, DOZENS OF TANKS AND ASSAULT GUNS BEGAN TO ATTACK THE ENTIRE POSITION, THE MACHINE GUNS HISSED LIKE TEARING OILCLOTH, AND THE CRISP SOUND OF 37MM RAPID-FIRE GUNS. THERE WAS ALSO THE DULL SOUND OF 75MM SHORT GUNS, LIKE A SONG OF DEATH ECHOING ACROSS THE POSITION. The Russian gunners struggled to distinguish the tank looming in the smoke, and then fired a round of armor-piercing shells. Because of the interference of smoke grenades and the continuous suppression of the opponent's artillery, as well as the charge of the tank troops, the entire Russian position became a little chaotic, some gunners opened fire in advance, while others were still looking for target ..........

Scattered artillery sounds sounded in the Russian positions, this kind of shelling may destroy one or two unlucky tanks, but the biggest effect is to expose their own position, although because of the dense fog, can not be accurately locked, but the muzzle flame generated by the fire in the gray background like a light in the dark night tells the opponent, "Come hit me, I'm here!" "THEN THESE EXPOSED GUN EMPLACEMENTS WILL BE TAKEN CARE OF BY THE 75MM SHORT GUNS IN THE BACK AND THE 82MM MORTARS FURTHER BACK, ALTHOUGH THERE IS THE PROTECTION OF THE BREASTWALL TO HELP RESIST SHRAPNEL, BUT DIRECT FIRE AND SHRAPNEL FALLING FROM THE SKY CAN STILL BLOW THE GUN OR CREW TO PIECES! Bright yellow flames are blooming. A loud bang came, knocking on the defensive positions of the Russian army at all times. …。

Because of the existence of infantry, the tanks of the Chinese Army did not dare to easily wade into danger, and the armored brigade commanded by Cai Ye lacked the cover of the infantry, although the Republic of China could equip the troops with more than two divisions of tanks, but there were not enough resources and financial resources to equip the infantry transport vehicles.

But at the same time...... The scattered return fire of the Russians could not completely repel the opponent, 38 flat-fire guns seem to be a lot, but they must be dispersed in all directions, and at the same time, some of the artillery is unusable because of the problem of the firing range, and some have been destroyed, as the attacking side, the numerical advantage in a small area is necessary, and the Chinese Army began to use its firepower advantage to gradually destroy the resistance of the Russian army. Like peeling the skin of an egg, slowly peel off the opponent's defense layer by layer.........

Just as Zhang Tianyi's assault battalion began to slowly wear down the opposing defenses, the other two battalions began to cross the battlefield, one of them preparing to ambush the Russian troops who came to support. While another battalion will go on the offensive. The task of the armored forces is to constantly tear apart and divide the opponent's defenses, and once Guderian said a very domineering remark, which meant that the prisoners surrendered to the infantry behind, and he did not have the strength to accept the prisoners. And now, the Chinese Army even does it according to this requirement!
