Chapter 177 Tracked Troop Carrier Armored Vehicle

Hundreds of aircraft in the sky are composed of two escort brigades and one bomber brigade. This is just the first wave. After they complete the bombings and return, the second wave of aircraft bombing will come.

This time, the bombing formation, which was already familiar with the range and power of incendiary bombs, began to throw incendiary bombs at the most densely populated places of the Japanese, dispersing the Japanese queue. In just over ten minutes, after completing the bomb drop, the bomber formation left, while the escort formation did not leave, hovering in the high altitude as if waiting for something.

The earth was burning, and many Japanese soldiers who saw this scene for the first time were really panicked this time. The large number of shells and moor bottles they carried for the anti-tank were flammable and explosive items. The high-temperature flames that devoured life and the artillery shells that drove the Japanese soldiers out of their original queues. Most of them could still calm down under the command of officers at all levels, while a small number of people ran around like headless flies.

There was no decent fire-extinguishing device in the Japanese army - even if there were, most of them were abandoned during bombing. Those who were on fire could only roll on the ground. As a result, the area of ​​the fire on their bodies became larger and larger, and those who poured water to extinguish the fire spread the flames. All this violated the scientific common sense of the Japanese. Didn’t the Han people say that water overcomes fire in the theory of the Five Elements of the Han people?

Seishiro Itagaki ordered cruelly: "Use the butt, bayonet, and bullets to calm them down."

The order was executed well. Before Seishiro Itagaki had time to count the bombing losses, the planes in the sky seemed to be returning and flew in with the roar of the engine.

"Where is our aviation force?" Seishiro Itagaki, who knew his aviation force was still on the road, couldn't help but howl at the sky.

The second wave of bombers completed the bombing as usual, but the only one who returned to the air was the bomber formation, and you would know on the way to meet the orders of the Japanese aviation army.

At this time, the tank troops of the 17th Army were divided into two, one left and one right, forming two arrows on the vast grassland to assault the Japanese without burning flanks. Because people could not stand in the middle of the raging fire, the Japanese were divided into two left and right troops and could not support each other. The two waves of bombing may not have caused so much casualties to the personnel - in the aerial photos, it can be identified that there were about a few thousand Japanese who were burning and struggling in the sea of ​​fire, but the blow to formation, morale and the heavy equipment they carried was destructive.

Seishiro Itagaki looked at the assaulting tank cluster ahead and shouted to the lower body: "Let the Bushido spirit in our bodies be sublimated and burned, for the sake of the empire. Long live the empire, long live the emperor, long live the holy war."

Such slogans are still a bit seductive in the Japanese troops. The Japanese officers and soldiers infected by them shouted: "Long live the emperor, long live the empire, and long live the holy war."

The Japanese soldiers who took Amphetamine too early and even cluster grenades were not brought, but rushed towards the torrent of steel with bayonets. They were the favorite of such tank soldiers who rushed up like this. They turned the machine gun and gave the bullets to the Japanese.

The Japanese have already trained the team to blast tanks. First of all, they have learned that the armor of this Type 22 tank is not something that can be penetrated by their own 6.5mm rifle bullets and 7.7mm machine gun bullets. The 37 anti-tank war defense guns are not very effective on the front armor, so there is no need to mention the grenade launcher.

However, the grenade launcher has a greater effect on anti-armor than war defense artillery, which means that the grenade launcher continuously fires shells and forms a dust of sand and dust composed of opium in front of the tank disturbs the tank soldiers' sight, covering the blasting hand holding cluster grenades or blasting barrels and grenades carrying a large number of grenades. When the blasting hand reaches a certain distance, the grenade launcher with a not-so-high accuracy can no longer be used. At this time, the grenade launcher who acts with the blasting hand uses grenades to cover the blasting hand forward.

The plan is always perfect, but now after the bombing, it is time to use the 38th cover to hold the blasting tube, but the grenades are always carrying grenade bags, but those who use grenade tubes often cannot find their own grenade tubes.

As the two tank clusters followed the reorganized Second Division and the reorganized Fourth Division respectively, the limelight of this battle in Jining made the reorganized 25th Division steal the troops called Qianliju Division and unexpectedly run and fight, and the follow-up Second Division and the Fourth Division only took a sip of soup to follow the reorganized 25th Division to clean the battlefield throughout the entire Jining battle. The task of the reorganized 25th Division this time was to surround Jining - the remaining thousands of Japanese and puppet troops were handed over to the reorganized 25th Division for food.

The Ministry of Military Affairs of Peking

Jin Batian and Minister Song were waiting for news on the front line, and the two were relieved after hearing the successful bombing. The entire military and political department planned this move for a long time. This was the first time in China, the air force, the tank soldiers and the infantry cooperated with the attack. At the same time, it was also a necessary data analysis for the upcoming Shaanxi Battle.

Minister Song drank a cup of tea and was defeated and said in anger: "Can the tracks of your tank be stronger? Most of the damaged tanks in the Jining Battle were blown up and destroyed."

Of course, Jin Batian would not say that his cargo was not good: "The Min-24 crawlers should be better, but they could not withstand cluster grenades and blasting tubes. The point should be how to prevent the Japanese meat bullets from getting close to the tanks. The two machine guns of the Min-22 are not decorations. Besides, the tracks themselves are driving the movement of the tanks. The excessively thick crawlers on the tank wheels are probably the same speed as old ox pullers."

"The machine gun is not a decoration. Some reports say that the Japanese pretended to be dead and lie on the ground. When the tank came, they suddenly pulled a cluster grenade or exploded the tank to explode the tank."

It was indeed a bit uneasy for this tank cluster to follow without infantry. Jin Batian remembered the armored vehicle of the troops - how could he catch up with the tank with his two legs?

After pretending to write and draw on a piece of paper, Jin Batian called out the information about the armored vehicle from the system - as an arms dealer, of course, he had to worry about what customers were anxious about and what customers thought.

After finding these information, Jin Batian said: "Minister, you see that most of the tank losses are caused by the lack of infantry arrival on the battlefield in time because of insufficient firepower."

"Well, what's wrong?" Minister Song asked.

Jin Batian took out his casual sketch: "Our Nanyang military industry has always attached importance to customer needs and can develop an ultra-light tank. It is equipped with a double-connected 20mm air-resistant cannon and two 7.92mm heavy machine guns. It has manned space and shooting holes on both sides, which are operated by five people. The maximum crew is 14, which is exactly a infantry squad."

Minister Song looked at the data and structural diagram and found that this thing was good to operate with the tank. The two machine guns in front had certain air defense capabilities. Infantrymen can fight on both wings, and can also hit people if they are in a hurry. Minister Song asked: "Does Nanyang military industry have such ultra-light tanks now?"

"Someone has designed it before, but later everyone thought that this ultra-light tank or armored troop vehicles could not fight against tanks on the battlefield, so they only produced some samples for testing purposes. If there is an order, it is much faster than the tank."

This thing is already an armed tracked armored vehicle. It can be produced by both tank factories and automobile factories, so the speed is naturally much faster.

"Then this one, well, how much does it cost to tracked armoured armored vehicles?"

Jin Batian has calculated that the manufacturing speed of this tracked armored vehicle is twice as fast as that of the Civil 22 tank, so he gave half the price of the Civil 22 tank: "This car is naturally cheaper than the tank, plus weapons and two base ammunitions of 10,000 yuan."

"Send some sample cars as soon as possible." Minister Song felt at ease when he heard the price. There were only foreign agents on the foreign car market. An ordinary car or truck costs several thousand yuan. If it is good, tens of thousands of yuan will be given, but cars that are as generous as Nanyang military industry are all given. If you want to buy it, you will only have a thousand oceans.

The most important thing is that the Nanyang military industry now owes hundreds of millions of yuan in taxes from the National Government, and now the goods are almost free of charge. Minister Song is already considering taking this opportunity to persuade Nanjing to form several mechanized divisions.
