The five tanks were led by the staff officer, although he did not argue with Suzuki Shuiqing, but he still believed from the bottom of his heart that there were ambushes by Lin Yuan's troops on both sides of the mountain road, so he led the five tanks to stay behind, and when the cannon sounded in the mountain road, the staff officer immediately ordered: "Adjust the firing angle, use high-explosive grenades, and shoot at the hillside." ”

Since these five tanks were at a certain distance from the ambush circle, the shells they fired could just fall on the top of the hill, and the position of Lin Yuan's tank troops, although the grenades could not destroy the tanks of Lin Yuan's troops, they could interfere with the tanks of Lin Yuan's troops, and the Japanese troops on the mountain road could escape.

Five grenades exploded on the position of Lin Yuan's troops, and Zhang Yun immediately understood that it was the five receiving tanks that were playing tricks, so Zhang Yun immediately ordered the No. 15 tank: "Move near the receiving tanks and kill them all!" ”

The fifteenth tank heard the order and moved to the vicinity of the five receiving tanks of the Japanese army, and the staff officer on the receiving tank heard the sound of Lin Yuan's tanks coming, and knew that he was definitely not an opponent, so he ordered to retreat, and the five receiving tanks immediately turned around and fled back, and the fifteenth found that they had fled and immediately notified Zhang Yun, who was overjoyed and thought: "Now we can comfortably fight the Japanese tanks." ”

At this time, the gunner of Zhang Yun's car destroyed a Japanese tank again, and suddenly the No. 3 car reported: "The Japanese tank crew got off the car and wanted to escape!" ”

When Zhang Yun heard this, he immediately ordered: "Attention to the commanders of each unit: Use heavy machine guns to shoot at the Japanese army, and the Japanese tank crews try to get out of the car and escape." ”

The commander of the car was ordered to immediately drill out of the car body, operate the heavy machine gun to aim at the valley, the angle of fire of the heavy machine gun can be pressed very low, so hit the bottom of the valley with a handle, plus the distance is very close, the bullet almost did not slow down and rushed into the crowd, and the Japanese tank crew suffered heavy casualties in an instant.

The battle lasted until two o'clock in the afternoon, when all but five of the 60 Japanese tanks were destroyed, and the mountain roads were full of burning wreckage of tanks and the corpses of Japanese tank soldiers.

The tank battalion of the second division won a complete victory, and Zhou Xiao also felt that there was light on his face, so he found Lin Yuan and said, "Lin Shuai, we fought this battle beautifully, right?" ”

Lin Yuan said with a smile: "Fifty-five enemy tanks were destroyed, and more than 300 enemy infantry were killed and wounded, but there were no casualties among themselves, beautiful, really beautiful!" ”

Zhou Xiao said: "Then should we take advantage of the victory to pursue and annihilate the Japanese army?" ”

Lin Yuan said: "No need. ”

Zhou Xiao asked, "Lin Shuai, then what are we going to do?" ”

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "You guys should return to the armored base immediately." ”

Zhou Xiao shouted in surprise and said, "Return to the base?" And what about the battlefield? ”

Lin Yuan said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this, our Seventh Division has returned from the Anhui front, you return to the armored base to modify the tank, and the battlefield will be handed over to the Seventh Division." ”

Zhou Xiao asked: "Is our tank also going to be equipped with the HK-1 fire control system?" ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "Of course! This fire control system will soon become standard for all tanks in the army. ”

Zhou Xiao said: "Okay, I'll arrange it." ”

Lin Yuan put down the communicator and thought: "With the Seventh Division participating in the battle, the Japanese army that counterattacks Korea will have a greater grasp." ”

Lin Yuan dispatched troops in the battalion, the Japanese army sighed in the battalion, and Kumamoto Maseichi heard that the tank unit had been devastated, and roared loudly in anger: "What is this for?" Why can't our heroic samurai of the Imperial Japan defeat the Shina people? Our tankmen train very hard, why can't we beat the people? ”

The leader of the Japanese army's technical squadron said: "Captain, we can't defeat the Zhina, not because our samurai are not brave enough, but because our main artillery chariot is not the opponent of Lin Yuan's main artillery chariot!" ”

Kumamoto Shoichi said: "In addition to the night vision combat ability of our main artillery combat vehicle, which point is inferior to the China people in terms of firepower, defense and mobility?" ”

The leader of the technical squadron said helplessly: "It turns out that we are not the opponents of the Zhina people in these three things, in terms of firepower, although we have high-speed armor-piercing shells, but the tanks of Lin Yuan's troops are low in shape, and the first armor is wedge-shaped, and our armor-piercing shells are easy to jump when they hit, and the armor-piercing shells equipped by Lin Yuan's troops are far deeper than ours, and we are not opponents at all." ”

Kumamoto said angrily: "Didn't our domestic technical experts say that the armor-piercing bullet is the first type of ammunition to appear? How come Lin Yuan's troops also have armor-piercing shells? How did they steal our technology? ”

The leader of the technical squadron shook his head slightly, and Kumamoto Shoichi said, "You go on, what about mobility?" Are we also worse than Lin Yuan's troops? ”

The leader of the technical squadron said: "In the first few battles, our main artillery combat vehicles could not catch up with the main artillery combat vehicles of Lin Yuan's troops at all, they fought whenever they wanted, and withdrew if they wanted, we had no way, and the conversion time of their movement and short stop was very short, and our time was ten times that of theirs. ”

Kumamoto Masashi let out a long sigh and said, "So we are not the opponent of Lin Yuan's troops at all?" ”

The leader of the technical squadron was silent, and at this moment, an officer walked in and said, "Captain, General Nogi is in a hurry. ”

Kumamoto Shoichi stretched out his hand and took the telegram in his hand, only to see that it was written: "Kumamoto Shoichi, you actually fought the battle like this, suffered heavy casualties, and the military department gave me a lot of embarrassment, if you can't save face, you should apologize to the emperor by disembowelment!" ”

"Another: The forty-four tanks of Lin Yuan's troops were annihilated in the Battle of Beishan as you reported, and after multiple investigations by our intelligence department, it was confirmed that the number was wrong, and the number of tanks lost by Lin Yuan's troops in battle must not exceed ten! Such a deception, you, Shoichi Kumamoto, are really a shame to our Imperial Army of the Great Japanese Empire! ”

As soon as Kumamoto Masashi read the telegram, he was so angry that he tore the telegram to shreds, and the staff officer hurriedly said to the side: "Captain, please calm your anger, although you have suffered a little defeat, you still have merit, and the military department will definitely not force you to commit suicide." ”

Kumamoto Shoichi roared angrily: "Yaga! Do you think I'm angry for my own life? I am for my honor, the honor of an emperor samurai, and General Nogi actually said that I am a disgrace to the imperial army! ”

At this time, the captain of the Technique Squadron said on the side: "Captain, please calm your anger, as long as you can defeat the Shina people, you can wash away the shame." ”

Kumamoto Shoichi asked, "How do you defeat the Shina people?" ”

The leader of the technical squadron said: "I have a way, Lin Yuan's tank troops are now using armor-piercing shells, and we can target armor-piercing shells to improve our defense, so that Lin Yuan's troops' main artillery combat vehicles will not be able to hurt us." ”

Kumamoto Shoichi hurriedly asked, "What method?" ”

The leader of the technical art squadron said: "Using the Chinese's 'exploding magic box' is the best method, but unfortunately our country can't produce it, but we have a simpler thing that can resist the armor-breaking bullets of the Chinese people!" ”

Kumamoto asked, "What's that?" ”

The Captain of the Technique Squadron said, "Grille Armor, I wonder if you have heard of it, Captain of the Channel?" ”
