Bang bang bang!

The bullet from the tortoise box hit the armor of the tank.

The tanks of the Eighth Route Army used a simplified version in order to install armor steel on the tank.

Although it is not as resistant to direct fire from a 203 mm naval gun as a battleship.

But blocking 100mm shells is still not a problem.

With the intensity of Japanese firepower.

Except for division-level heavy artillery and high-yield aerial bombs, they are basically rampant.

Not to mention a small pistol like a tortoise box.

Not even scratching.

Soon, these tanks rolled over the barbed wire fence and rushed to the trench.

At this time, the soldiers who had been following the chariot quickly spread out.

Each of these soldiers held a Type 100 submachine gun with seven or eight grenades in their hands, and they fired at the trenches.

Weapons such as the Hundred Type submachine gun were originally developed by Japan.

However, their senior officials felt that this weapon was too "wasteful" of ammunition, and only a small amount of it was equipped.

Many soldiers have never even been seen.

Then, they will face this street fighting artifact.

Da da da.

Tongues of flame erupted from the muzzle of the gun.

The soldiers in the trenches were so pressed by machine guns that they couldn't even lift their heads.

He didn't even notice that the enemy had rushed in front of him.

Hundreds of submachine guns fired condescendingly, turning them into live targets.

Many people were killed on the spot without even looking at what the enemy looked like.

Several clever veterans immediately dragged their companions' bodies to cover.

But the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side had already found grenades.

They were all thrown into the trench.

A series of explosions went off in the trenches.

After being swept away by the steel storm, there was no longer a living person in the entire trench.

"Division Commander, the commando team has taken down the first position."

The observer quickly reported.

"His grandma, this tactic is so powerful."

Lao Li looked at the battlefield situation ahead with a telescope and couldn't help but be speechless.

Although, in peacetime, he often practices this tactic with other troops.

But he really didn't know what the actual battlefield situation was like.

Looking at it now, it is indeed different.

Originally, they wanted to seize a position, either doing soil work or using people to pile it.

Even if it is taken down, it will still have to face the enemy's counterattack.

A position often changes hands several times.

Very tragic.

But now, with truck guns, tanks and submachine guns.

It all becomes much simpler.

Killing enemies is as easy as killing a chicken.

He used to complain that the equipment was expensive.

Sure enough, there is a reason to be expensive.

Use these weapons to kill enemies quickly and ruthlessly, completely annihilating them without leaving any residue behind, and solving all your worries in one fell swoop.

The most important thing is that our own casualties are very low.

Only two arms were shot.

In the past, this would have been the kind of injury that would not leave the line of fire.

However, according to current regulations, for such injuries, one must go to a rear field hospital, undergo a doctor's diagnosis and confirm recovery before returning to the battlefield.

In order to allow injured soldiers to recover as soon as possible, special recovery meals were even prepared.

This was unimaginable before.

"Order the troops and keep moving forward. I'm going to drive the little devil out today!"

Under Lao Li's order, the troops began to advance in steps.

Tanks and commandos were at the forefront conducting fire reconnaissance.

If you spot the enemy, call for artillery support.

After the artillery destroyed the enemy's firepower points and fortifications, tanks and commandos went up to harvest.

The main force then followed up the occupation and established defensive positions.

Although this strategy is very old-fashioned, it is very effective.

The Japanese army was unable to fight back.

If only a few years earlier, when the Japanese army were still elite soldiers, they might have been able to rely on their tenacious spirit to fight hard.

In that case, the casualties of the commandos would probably increase a lot.

But at this time, the elite Japanese troops died in battle and were deployed again and again.

There are only a few left as skeletons, and most of them are filler babies with little experience or training.

It's okay to make up the numbers at ordinary times, but when it comes to the battlefield, especially in such a battle with high-intensity firepower, morale will collapse immediately.

Not caring about orders or not, many people threw away their weapons and ran away.

There were so many people that not even the supervising team could kill them.

Coupled with the constant approach of the Eighth Route Army's tanks, these people's collapse was aggravated.

A large number of soldiers began to flee.

He even took the elite backbone and ran with him.

They ran, and a hole was ripped open in the defense line.

Then, in order to prevent the flanks from being threatened, the surrounding friendly forces could only retreat.

The friendly forces further on the flanks could only retreat after seeing this.

But this kind of retreat was unorganized and planned.

Many people get confused while running.

The soldiers cannot find the commander, and the commander cannot find the soldiers.

The intertwining of various contradictory orders makes people even more dizzy.

We can only follow the crowd and move back.

Then the organized retreat slowly turned into an unorganized rout.

Eventually it became a meltdown.

The 50,000-strong army fled in all directions like a flock of sheep that had lost control.

Lao Li was stunned when he saw the movements of the Japanese army.

He did not expect that with only 20 tanks, he would break down the defense line of 50,000 Japanese troops.

According to his original plan, he relied on these 20 tanks to open gaps in the defense line, and then used artillery and infantry to continuously attack the two wings, penetrate the defense lines one after another, and finally eliminate the enemy.

The original plan was for three days to a week.

However, from the beginning of the attack to the collapse of the Japanese defense line, it did not even last three hours.

"Is there a trap?"

Lao Li climbed to the high ground and carefully observed the movements of the Japanese troops.

The Japanese army's formation was scattered, all kinds of heavy equipment were randomly discarded on the roadside, and many people even lost their shoes.

You can even see a coalition flag thrown on the ground.

You must know that the Japanese army valued this thing more than life.

There is even a dedicated team to look after the flags.

When the battle was about to be defeated, some people burned the flag specifically to prevent it from falling into the hands of the enemy.

Now, such flags have been thrown away, which shows that the Japanese army in front of them is really in trouble.

"The whole army is pursuing them. Prisoners are allowed to be captured. The trucks are following. Don't let them have a chance to stop and regroup. I will completely eat these 50,000 people."

Lao Li gave the order.

"Come on!"

The men reorganizing the first division rushed forward.

20 tanks were the vanguard.

Behind them are the infantry in trucks.

Various truck-gun convoys followed.

He rushed forward according to the battle formation.

In fact, with the speed of reorganizing divisions, they can catch up with the Japanese army very quickly.

But Lao Li did not catch up immediately, and just kept following the Japanese army.

Constantly squeezing the Japanese army's physical strength.

Lao Li was afraid that the Japanese troops would be driven into a panic and they would jump over the wall in a hurry.

That would be bad.

It is better to slowly chase the Japanese army from behind like now.

Anyway, they are not tired from riding in the car.

After the Japanese soldiers were drained of all their physical strength, they no longer had the strength to even hold a gun, so they could cook whatever they wanted.
