Part 4 The Journey Chapter 172 - Dancing with Demons (4)

The smoke of the military artillery bombardment gradually dissipated, and Yuan Xu finally saw clearly behind the armored car with a single or double turret in the enemy department on the opposite side, and slowly followed a behemoth with a square front and a large iron pipe straight forward, it was Mendeleev!

The hounds with Type 3 armor-piercing bullets still had a good fight with those armored cars at close range, but the legendary monster that was still safe and sound even with more than a dozen rounds of the main cannon was really tricky, not to mention that the enemy was outnumbered, and there was no future in frontal hard fighting at this time.

The radio station, which had been installed at the cost of removing the hull machine gun and reducing the ammunition of the main gun by two-thirds, finally came in handy, and Yuan Xu urgently ordered the radio man to the left of the driver to send a telegram to the rear artillery command center, requesting that the enemy tank group be covered with dense artillery fire.

Immediately, a hunting dog of the brigade headquarters was ordered to drive along the path to the west of the village, find the 1st and 2nd companies of the infantry unit of the left flank, and lead them to the enemy's flank and attack

Its 4 hounds scattered and hid on street corners, ready to ambush enemy armored vehicles.

Yuan Xu's car was hidden behind the ruins of a stone fireplace, which could hide the bloated body of the power and not prevent Yuan Xu on the roof from hiding behind the smoke to observe the enemy.

Worthy of being the veteran elite, the surviving officers and soldiers of the 2nd Battalion of the 1st Regiment were not afraid, and they drilled out one after another~.

Less than three minutes after the telegram was sent, our artillery fire, which had been suspended for a long time, suddenly burst into force and hit the main road in dense turns—but the accuracy was too poor, and it hit far behind the enemy tank group, and at this time, the enemy armored vehicles driving at high speed were less than 200 meters away from the entrance of the village.

"Hit!"

Yuan Xu gave an order, and the 75 short cannon of Cedian roared. A Russian armored vehicle rushing to the front in the middle, a huge and obscene turret on the car crackled like an egg falling to the ground-

As if stabbing a hornet's nest, the small cannons in the hands of the infantry also thumped into tom, and in a burst of fire, two hits in a row, one of the tires burst into the air, crooked to the side, the other engine caught fire, the crew hurriedly abandoned the car and fled, and was instantly put down by the Chinese machine gun guarding in front.

Seeing this, other Russian armored vehicles braked their wheels one after another. Shake the turret and return fire with a volley of guns.

Only then did Yuan Xu find out that there were indeed armored cars equipped with small-caliber artillery in the opponent's formation, and hurriedly instructed the gunner.

"Hit the cannon first!"

"Where's the big guy?" The gun commander apparently saw the big monster behind the armored car as well.

"Don't worry about it yet, let's get rid of its henchmen before we can go back in time."

Yuan Xu knew that the heavy chariot with heavy firepower was thin-skinned and stuffed, and it was not even enough to resist the fire of his own 37 infantry guns, and the impact of a single vehicle on the enemy formation in front of him was tantamount to sending him to death, so he had to wait

After reporting the location data of the corrected artillery fire to the radioman, Yuan Xu saw a flash of light suddenly erupting from the cannon barrel protruding in front of the big iron house, and subconsciously shrank his head into the turret. It's almost a second of delay, and it's a bang. The outer wall of the chariot crackled into a loud sound, and after a short pause, the hatch that had not had time to be closed fell again and fell one after another dust, snow, gravel, and wood chips, choking Yuan Xu three times in a row.

"Brigade commander, withdraw, I estimate that the big guy's main gun is stronger than the 105 plus of our artillery, and our big dumpling can't withstand it." The gun commander couldn't help but plead.

Yuan Xu hesitated for a moment, and another cannonball fell nearby, although the power was weaker, the scattered shrapnel and bouncing stones still knocked a noise on the shell of the chariot that was out of high-class interest.

"Put a smoke screen. Moving to the west of the village, I want to see where Fu Liang's bunnies died. Before Yuan Xu's words fell, the artillery commander, who had been sticking to the scope and observing the ground outward, suddenly stomped his feet excitedly.

"Brigadier Commander, come out. Our electric, one, two, three - six cars are there! ”

When Yuan Xu heard it, he didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one. Buckle the steel helmet behind the seat to his head, carry the telescope out of the turret, and take a closer look, sure enough, it is the power of the 1st Company, and the bright red flag fluttering on the top must be Fu Liang's car - all the chariots of the 1st Company are still there!

The sudden appearance of the 1st Company of Armament made the situation take a turn for the worse, and the six divisions of the telegram attacked from the flank of the enemy formation in a strict assault formation: a wedge-shaped squad led by Fu Liang's car directly attacked the enemy's armored convoy, and a burst of fierce artillery fire knocked the enemy car into a tower and flying, and the wheels rolled wildly; Another small group of three vehicles puffed into the back of the big iron house with black smoke and fired at its tracks, machine gun towers, and engine intakes and exits at bayonet distance. The iron house that looked majestic and magnificent faced with the attack of the wolves, there was no way to fight back, the heavy hull was inconvenient to turn, once the mobility device was damaged, the heavy artillery installed in front of the hull also became an ornament, just three or two minutes, the monster that once plagued our army was beaten and breathed fire in many places, and then the side hatch was opened, and a long line of crew members jumped out, obediently raising their hands and surrendering.

Before the 1st Company had time to settle the prisoners, it encountered a group of sparse Russian cavalry, and it turned out that our army had missed the ground just now, and the artillery fire just fell on the Russian cavalry team that was closely following the convoy, interrupting the contact between the cavalry and the armored corps, and when the artillery fire stopped for a while, and the surviving Cossack cavalry stubbornly caught up, all they saw was the blazing own chariot and the Chinese chariot in full swing -

At this time, Yuan Xu called for the second time

Howling came, just hit the group of ignorant Cossacks who rushed closely, suddenly the horses neighed, Yuan Xu was about to applaud, but saw that the fire net was pulled back to the village little by little, and soon covered the wreckage of the enemy's chariot, but our chariot that was fighting with the enemy chariot had not yet had time to evacuate!

"Hasn't the telegram stopped shooting sent yet?" Yuan Xu asked the radioman with a strong breath.

"It was done three minutes ago."

"Again, add that you're bombarding friendly forces! No, three times in a row. ”

After three or four minutes, the frightening blazing artillery fire finally stopped.

"Drive over and have a look." Yuan Xu attached himself to the driver's ear and ordered quite calmly.

"Armored Little Zhuge " should not be in a hurry for this kind of thing, what has happened must be honestly faced after all, try to recover or reduce losses as much as possible, scolding the mother, kicking the wall, smashing the table, and throwing things will not solve any problems.

The car slowly drove forward, and Yuan Xu climbed up and looked. In the smoke of gunpowder, among the craters, the bright battle flag on Fu Liang's car could not be found.

Nearby, a pile of Russian armored vehicles with the logo of a two-headed vulture on a blue background painted on the front of the car are burning, and in the distance, the paralyzed and smoking Mendeleev stands clearly.

Yuan Xu ordered the loader to bring a spare barrel and knock it over one by one.

As the hatches on the top of the turrets of each car were opened one by one, the silent steel beasts came to life.

Yuan Xu saw Fu Liang's figure. Didn't make a sound.

"Brigade commander, was it our artillery fire just now—hey, where's my flag?" Fu Liang touched the half-section of the flagpole behind the turret, looking aggrieved.

"It's our artillery fire, it's probably a radio problem - this thing has always been unreliable." Yuan Xu explained perfunctorily, looked behind Fu Liang, and saw that Zhong Yi had also drilled out of the turret unharmed, and the big stone in his heart was put down, and he couldn't help but recite a word of Amitabha silently.

The young duke, however, was specially instructed by the commander of the front army to take care of it. However, in this ever-changing battlefield, the cannonballs do not deliberately avoid the duke......

The loader is back. It was reported that only one vehicle was damaged by a near-miss bullet, and the crew was killed and wounded.

Yuan Xu stood on the top of the tower and looked around, the north side was full of human and horse corpses, and there was no trace of the pile of thunder in the west side of the 2, and the infantry of the south side 2 followed one after another, only a faint black shadow was seen in the east, and it was crawling like a snail on the side of the road.

The smoke of gunpowder cleared slightly, and Yuan Xu saw it clearly, another department of Deleev!

Wait, there's something else......

It's our strategy!

The Middle Route Army finally came over.

Yuan Xu was not so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut. The first thing he thought about was to avoid his own accidental injury, and the pursuing Mendeleev Army was likely to target his own men who had already broken through to the enemy's rear - these guys who were killing happily would not leisurely stop and carefully identify them.

"Raise the brigade flag." Yuan Xu commands the loader - in the formation of the electric chariot, the loader usually belongs to the role of specializing in miscellaneous tasks.

At the end of the turret was a three-meter-high wooden pole, and a bright red battle flag fifteen centimeters square was hung on it. We should be able to see clearly from a kilometer or two away.

The sharp-eyed Fu Liang didn't wait for Yuan Xu to give an order, and had already raised his voice and shouted: "Ready to fight, there is another big guy fighting." ”

Then the signal flag was raised - the whole team came with me!

During the sortie, it was discovered that another vehicle had a mechanical failure and could not be moved. The occupants had to stay behind to repair the car.

Including Yuan Xu's car, 5 Cedian struggled to climb through the large crater, rushed to the lonely Mendeleev, with the experience of dealing with the first two, plus the friendly forces in the middle attracted the attention of the other party, the attack was very smooth, each car stopped firing at a distance of 100 to 50 meters, and invariably hit the tracks first, and then concentrated on shooting the large inlet and outlet grille behind the side of the car body, and then concentrated on bombarding the machine gun tower after the engine caught fire, and in just two or three minutes, the big guy was turned into a pile of scrap metal.

The mistaken attack in the fear finally did not happen, Yuan Xu opened the hatch with confidence, waved the flag and summoned the commander of the Central Route Army to move closer to him.

A blue-faced major crawled over with a blue seal on its surface, and a square-faced major with half of his body outside the car saluted Yuan Xu from a distance.

"2 Chang Qinchuan came to report!"

"There are a lot of bullets on the mount." Yuan Xu replied.

"Mean, tickle, just killed three big wheeled monsters." Qin Chuan looked proud and regretful at the same time.

"Big wheel monster? I have to take a good look back, what's the matter, a stinky face, it's not enjoyable? ”

"That big iron house is our prey." Qin Chuan snorted at the large piece of scrap iron.

Yuan Xu stiffened his face: "What you are is our land, and they are all the results of our 1st Brigade, why are you careful." ”

"The brigade commander taught ......"

Suddenly, a 3-mounted Jie Hu rushed from the east, and Gadi braked between the two powers.

"Report - the enemy armored unit and a large force of infantry cavalry were found on the east road of the village, and the machine gun fighting vehicles of the right flank team could not break through the enemy tanks, and they have retreated along the original road, and now the enemy army is attacking the high ground east of the village with all its might!" 3G Huaxia
