Depressed is depressed.
After Captain Lu made the request, the monk and Duan Peng agreed.
Help the 28th Regiment form a semi-mechanized heavy-arms unit that combines cavalry and tanks.
He also agreed to hold a course within the regiment to teach the soldiers of the 28th Regiment how to carry out infantry-tank coordination tactics.
…
the other side.
Just as the commander of Jizhong expected, the Japanese lost the battle in Xiaoli Village and the Japanese completely worried about the 28th Regiment.
Now, what made the Japanese feel even more angry and humiliated was that after the reinforcements arrived at Xiaoli Village, in addition to the white corpses on the ground, only two of the four tanks that had been helplessly abandoned on the battlefield were left. Down the wreckage.
The other two cars disappeared without a trace.
"Baga, how could the tanks of the Japanese Empire fall into the hands of Tubal Road?"
Within the headquarters, Kazuo Nakano, the Japanese squadron leader who commanded the battle in Xiaoli Village, was criticized.
Kazuo Nakano was also filled with anger and spoke with the belief of revenge: "Sir, please give me another chance and send more tanks. I am willing to lead the team as the vanguard to destroy the 28th regiment in one fell swoop and take back the lost items of our empire. Two tanks.”
After discussion, the officers of the Japanese headquarters finally came up with a specific plan and decided to send a field brigade to raid the 28th Regiment base area.
Five additional Type 92 ultra-light tanks, two Type 89 medium tanks, and one Type 97 medium tank were dispatched, for a total of eight tanks.
Plus six armored vehicles.
A total of fourteen combat armors.
They drove to the base area of the 28th Regiment in a mighty manner and wiped out the 28th Regiment of the Eighth Route Army in one fell swoop.
"This battle will let the entire Jizhong know that the military might of the Japanese Empire cannot be offended. These 28 regiments are among the Eighth Route Army troops in the Jizhong area. They are the most troublesome troops in recent times. As long as the 28 regiments can be eliminated in one fell swoop, we will definitely be able to achieve great success. It dampened the spirit of the Eighth Route Army."
"Hi!"
Kazuo Nakano responded, feeling full of confidence in his heart at this moment.
There is a brigade of troops, plus eight tanks to assist in the battle, a mere 28 regiments.
It is simply easy to eliminate them in one fell swoop.
The surging undercurrent gradually surged towards the 28th group.
…
"What is infantry-tank coordination tactics? As the name suggests, it is a tactic in which infantry and tanks fight together."
"In previous anti-tank combat teachings, we have carefully introduced various types of Japanese tanks, such as the armor, power, and firepower of the Type 92 ultra-light tanks, Type 89 tanks, and Type 97 medium tanks. and other characteristics.”
"Then we know very well that the Japanese tanks are killing weapons that combine speed, firepower, and defense."
"But tanks are not without their enemies. Almost when tanks appear on the battlefield, they are accompanied by some anti-tank artillery."
"On the battlefield, the biggest fear for a tank with a huge body is that the enemy has anti-tank firepower that can threaten our own tanks."
"For example, the combat anti-tank gun commonly used by the Chinese army in battles was a 37mm anti-tank gun imported from Germany. It was quite effective in dealing with Japanese tanks with weak armor."
In class, the monk held a teaching stick in his hand, pointed at the tank model drawn on the blackboard and continued:
"Therefore, in infantry-tank coordinated operations, infantry and tanks must cover each other and assist each other in combat."
A platoon leader who was attending the lecture asked: "The tank's armor is so thick, does it still need infantry cover?"
"Good question!"
The monk replied: "Tanks naturally need the cover of infantry. As I said before, what tanks fear most are anti-tank weapons."
"For example, right now our 28th Regiment has two ultra-light Bean Tanks."
"Such a tank is as fragile as a piece of paper in front of the little devil's anti-tank firepower. One shot can destroy our tank."
"At this time, our infantry needs to take the lead in concentrating firepower to destroy the enemy's anti-tank firepower that threatens our own tanks. This is how our infantry protects the tanks."
"As for the little Japs we usually encounter, the infantry-tank coordination tactic is simply useless. The Japs often directly use the tanks as shields at the front, and the infantry follows the tanks and advances forward. This is the stupidest way to attack. .”
"At this time, whether it is the anti-tank artillery in our hands, or the anti-tank traps and anti-tank mines buried underground, they are enough to destroy the Japanese tanks immediately."
"However, the Japanese did not pay attention to infantry-tank coordination tactics when dealing with us. They probably think that our equipment is backward and cannot threaten their tanks at all, even though their tanks are only a few millimeters thin."
Second Battalion Commander Sun Chuanzhong, who always listens carefully to lectures, expressed his views.
"Monk, what you mean is that if we use tanks to fight the Japanese, we must pay attention to the starting tank coordination tactics and let our infantry protect our tanks."
"For example, when the Japanese have anti-tank artillery, we must be the first to focus fire to destroy the Japanese anti-tank firepower. After destroying the Japanese anti-tank firepower, our tanks will move forward to cover the attack of our own infantry.
At this time, the only rifles and machine guns the Japanese had left were no longer enough to threaten the tank's armor. "
"This is a coordinated operation between infantry and tanks, covering each other."
The monk smiled and said: "The second battalion commander understood quickly."
"Actually, the terror of tanks does not lie in the rampage and rapid breakthrough of the behemoth. If the infantry cannot cooperate with the tanks, follow up with the tanks in time, and rush into the enemy's position rashly, it is purely an act of seeking death."
"The real power of a tank is that it can ignore enemy artillery shells and bullets, thereby providing follow-up fire support to our own troops on the battlefield at any time."
"The tank cannons equipped on the tanks, or the heavy machine gun firepower installed inside, are powerful weapons for rapid killing on the battlefield."
Third Battalion Commander Lu Shunmin sighed with deep approval.
"That's true. Facing the enemy's iron bastard, our bullets can't do anything to it."
"The Japanese tanks are equipped with artillery and machine guns. They keep firing. How can we fight this battle?"
"It was a completely one-sided beating."
"So on the battlefield, we have to find a way to knock out the Japanese tanks as soon as possible." The monk said.
"In addition, the essence of collaborative infantry and tank operations lies in the rapid breakthrough operations of infantry and tanks."
"For example, in our concentrated areas, due to the flat terrain, we generally do not encounter terrain that can hinder the advancement of tanks, which is most suitable for the rapid advancement of tanks."
"This can fully utilize the power of the tank."
"After we start a confrontation with the Japanese army, once we are sure that we have knocked out the Japanese anti-tank firepower, at this time we can use the tanks as the point of attack, quickly advance in, and directly open a breakthrough in the Japanese army's defenses.
The infantry followed up in coordination, quickly consolidated and expanded the breakthrough, covered the main force to launch a general offensive, and defeated the enemy in one fell swoop. "
"This is one of the wonderful uses of infantry-tank coordination tactics."
"Of course, since the cavalry is faster than the infantry, if the cavalry is responsible for quickly cooperating with the tanks to advance and create a breakthrough, the effect will naturally be better."
Having said this, I saw that the cadres who came to study were immersed in thinking.
The monk changed his usual humility and showed pride on his face:
"Comrades, in the past few years, our equipment was backward and ammunition was scarce. The Japanese's iron bastards were often rampant in front of us."
"Now we have anti-tank artillery on hand. Not to mention a lot of them. If the Japanese tanks and armor dare to invade our base, we have to let the little Japanese know what it means to walk around without food."
"Besides, I really can't stand the Japs' infantry-tank coordination tactics. It's just a no-brainer. When we fight against the Japs next time, let's take these two tanks out and teach the Japs a lesson. What does it mean to be real? The Bu-tan collaboration."
"well said!"
After hearing this, Commander Lu took the lead in applauding, and in an instant, the whole room burst into applause.
During the continued Bu-tan collaborative teaching, the cadres of the 28th Regiment were secretly excited.
Everyone's enthusiasm was high, and they just wanted to train infantry and cavalry to cooperate with tanks as soon as possible.
I personally witnessed the scene on the battlefield where the Eighth Route Army troops cooperated with infantry and tanks to beat up the little devil.
