Chapter 123 2 tank battles
After Wei Junlin learned that the Japanese were going to attack the Central Army's positions, he thought about it and felt that it was necessary to tell Jiang Zhongguo.
Jiang Zhongguo believed Wei Junlin's words deeply. He contacted the top brass of the Central Army that night and began to assemble a large number of troops north of Wucheng to prepare for tomorrow's tank battle.
For this reason, the Central Army's tank troops were also sent to the front line. Although there were not as many tanks as the Japanese, there were still more than [-] tanks. Jiang Zhongguo personally commanded these tank troops.
Noon the next day.
Just like what Greedy Wolf said in the information.
The Japanese dispatched a large number of troops and launched a frantic attack on the Central Army north of Wucheng.
In order to prevent the Red Police Army from participating in the war, the Japanese also sent two divisions to contain Wei Junlin's Red Police Army and Wei Jiajun south of Wucheng.
To the west and east of Wucheng, there were at least one Japanese division, launching a fierce offensive against the Chinese army in the defense area.
The battle has begun.
The Japanese first dispatched fighter jets and bombers with the intention of knocking out the Central Army's air defense and artillery positions.
However, because the Central Army was well prepared, many air defense positions were deployed on the way to the enemy planes, and many Japanese fighter jets were successfully shot down.
After hundreds of Japanese fighter jets took off, not long after, nearly a hundred fighter jets from the Central Army also took off.
Both sides are propeller fighters, but overall, the Type [-] biplane fighter on the Japs side is superior.
Wei Junlin originally thought that Jiang Zhong would request air support from him.
If this is the case, he will definitely take action. Firstly, Jiang Zhongguo is his sworn brother, and secondly, it is his duty to fight the Japanese.
But the battle broke out for three hours, and Jiang Zhongguo did not request air support, so Wei Junlin did not dispatch the Red Alert MiG fighter squadron.
Half past three in the afternoon.
The Japanese tank troops were dispatched.
More than [-] Type [-] ultra-light tanks, hundreds of Type [-] medium tanks, and dozens of light tanks spread out for more than ten miles and launched an attack on the Central Army in front.
When the Japanese tank troops attacked, they also dispatched a large number of infantry to carry out coordinated infantry and tank operations.
"According to the scheduled plan, annihilate the Japanese tank troops, take action!"
Jiang Zhongguo stood in the frontline headquarters and gave instructions to several Central Army officers.
"Yes!"
All the officers responded in unison.
Immediately lead the tanks and infantry of various ministries to fight against the Japanese tank troops in front.
Among them are more than fifty FT17 tanks, more than sixty T26 light tanks, and the rest are machine gun-type ultra-light tanks.
Central Army tank crews wearing yellow-green military uniforms and tank caps immediately entered the tank and then headed towards the direction of the Japanese tanks to fight.
As for the infantry of the Central Army, two divisions and nearly [-] Central Army troops were also dispatched to assist the tank troops in fierce battles in several towns ahead.
The people in the towns here have already evacuated to avoid unnecessary casualties.
Half past five in the afternoon.
The Japanese offensive became more fierce.
The tank troops dispatched by the Central Army lost half of their number.
On the other hand, the number of tanks lost by the Japanese was less than one-fifth of the losses of the Central Army, and only nineteen Japanese tanks were destroyed.
eight pm.
Although night has fallen.
But both sides launched illumination bombs in mid-air, making the pitch-black land suddenly look like day.
When the night battle broke out, the Central Army's tank troops suffered more serious losses. More than [-] tanks were dispatched, but in the end only more than [-] tanks were successfully withdrawn.
It is precisely this way that this tank battle ended with the defeat of the Central Army and the victory of the Japanese side.
After Wei Junlin learned the information, he couldn't help but sigh.
The fighting power of the Japanese was as good as that of a chicken in front of him.
But the Japanese can still have many advantages against the Central Army.
In the next few days, the Japanese continued to advance with the help of tank troops.
The closest position to the Central Army is less than three miles away, which is less than [-] meters away.
"Commander, should we help them?"
Adjutant Po Jun, who was standing in the temporary headquarters, asked Wei Junlin in front of him for instructions.
And the people the adjutant mentioned were obviously the Central Army.
"When they need our help, they will ask for it themselves."
Wei Junlin shook his head and responded calmly.
It was not until the decisive battle of the Battle of Wucheng that Wei Junlin learned why Jiang Zhongguo took so long to send a distress signal to his side.
The reason is the pride of the top brass of the Central Army.
They felt that the Central Army, as the strongest force in China, should be stronger than the Red Police Army. It would be really embarrassing for the Central Army to ask Wei Junlin for help even in this small scene.
In this regard, Jiang Zhongguo and these senior Central Army officials had different opinions.
Therefore, regardless of whether they agreed or not, Jiang Zhongguo sent a distress signal to Wei Junlin the next day, asking Wei Junlin to send troops to reinforce the Central Army to deal with the Japanese tank troops.
"Instruction, the first and second regiments of the Red Police Army, the Red Police Rhino tank company, the Dragon Tooth rocket launcher platoon and the howitzer company, immediately reinforce the Central Army's defense line."
Wei Junlin ordered to the adjutant in front of him.
"Yes."
Adjutant Po Jun straightened his back and responded respectfully.
Immediately, nearly five thousand Red Police soldiers entered the battlefield north of Wucheng, and a few hours later they started a fierce battle with Japanese tank troops.
Four p.m.
Ten Red Alert Rhino main battle tanks entered a town full of ruins.
The Japanese tank commander immediately mobilized more than [-] tanks, preparing to encircle and annihilate the Rhino main battle tank group in the town in one fell swoop.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, a fierce tank battle broke out between the two sides.
On Wei Junlin's side are ten Red Alert Rhino main battle tanks.
The Japanese have forty Type [-] ultra-light tanks, thirty Type [-] medium tanks and more than a dozen various light tanks.
Not only that, they dispatched more than fifty Type [-] infantry guns to assist the Japanese tank troops in fighting against the Red Police Army's Rhino tank platoon.
now.
Ten Red Alert Rhino main battle tanks were divided into two groups, that is, each group had a total of five Rhino tanks, distributed in the north and south of the town.
"Knock thud thump!"
The sound of crawler tracks kept coming.
Coupled with the sky full of yellow sand, the battlefield was filled with the smell of death.
The No. [-] Rhino tank drove at the front. When turning the corner, the Red Alert tank crew in the cockpit saw traces of Japanese tanks appearing on the left front. He immediately raised the radio pager and reported: "Left front, four hundred meters, found. Three enemy tanks, and three Type [-] infantry guns.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the No. [-] Rhino main battle tank quickly moved backwards, temporarily avoiding the edge and dodging several Japanese shells.
"Attention all, armor-piercing shells, left front, [-] meters, enemy tanks, enemy artillery, short stop to annihilate!"
The platoon leader of the Red Alert Rhino tank platoon ordered over the radio pager.
"Received on the [-]th!"
"Received on the [-]th!"
"Received on the eighth!"
"Received on the [-]th!"
"Received on the tenth!"
The Red Alert tank crew in the Rhino tank responded quickly.
Aiming in the direction, they drove to the two streets ahead, so that the Japanese tanks and artillery came into view of the Red Police tank crew.
At the same time, these five Red Alert Rhino tanks also appeared in the enemy's sight.
"Bang bang bang!"
Five Red Alert Rhino tanks took the lead in firing at the Japanese tanks and artillery positions ahead.
In an instant, the Japanese's two Type [-] ultra-light tanks and one Type [-] medium tank were pierced by the Red Police Army's armor-piercing bullets, causing the Japanese tanks to explode on the spot.
"Boom!"
The three Japanese tanks turned into pieces of scrap metal.
The explosion fragments instantly turned the Japanese tank crew in the cockpit to bloody pieces. After struggling for a few seconds, they lost their vital signs.
