"Release the smoke, release the smoke!"
The Chadian tank soldiers who were trying their best to escape kept activating the smoke grenade launchers of the tank turrets. Although these smoke grenade launchers fixed outside the turret in different directions could only be fired once, the smoke released could last for a period of time and provide great shielding. Part of the battlefield area.
Therefore, when retreating, the Chadians did not encounter any trouble. The Libyans' shots from behind almost missed the target. However, after the smoke bombs were released, the Chadians had nothing to do!
Quite a few of the Libyan T55 tanks have been upgraded and improved from the Soviet Union, including upgraded fire control, the installation of night vision equipment, and almost all of them are equipped with laser rangefinders. After all, Gaddafi is a big spender of real money. Throw out the banknotes, and the Soviets will definitely not dare to neglect such a big customer.
The Chadians' patchwork tank force is simply useless. Most of the tanks cannot even be filled with shells, and their daily maintenance is even more useless.
Half of the tanks were originally lost in the attack, but on the way to escape, half were lost due to mechanical failures and other problems. In the end, only six French AX30 tanks were able to escape safely. xь.
These tanks are second-hand goods eliminated by the French. Although they are second-hand, they are in pretty good condition, so it is not surprising that they can be returned. It is worth mentioning that several Italian OF40 tanks are actually OK, but they are all Lost in the first wave of attacks.
The Libyan armored troops were even more excited when they saw the row of abandoned tanks and trucks along the way. In order to ensure the complete annihilation of their opponents, they did not even wait for feedback from the reconnaissance troops. Everyone lined up and continued to move forward without encountering the enemy. Don't panic, the entire regiment is coming with more than ninety tanks. There is no enemy that cannot be defeated!
While the Libyans were marching in, the main force of the Chadian army had already completed a detour. Motorized infantry consisting of hundreds of Toyota pickup trucks pressed over from the south, southeast and northeast. They followed the predetermined battle plan and waited. The leading Libyan troops stopped and then fought out together.
The leading vehicle of the Libyan armored forces quickly rushed into the predetermined ambush circle. The next second, a bright firework burst out from under the tank, swallowing the entire vehicle in an instant.
Then, the tank whirred and dragged the broken track, emitting black smoke, and then stopped working. The appearance of the entire vehicle seemed to be intact, but the inside was completely different.
There are two types of large anti-tank mines that have been laid in advance. One is a killing model that uses metal jets to penetrate armor, while the other is a hollow charge with a large cone angle (above 120) powder cover to detonate the mine. Finally, a model is formed in which high-speed flipping projectiles penetrate the bottom armor.
What this Libyan tank encountered was the former. The metal jet was shot into the tank from underneath the vehicle body, instantly turning the occupants into a puddle of mud inside the vehicle body. There was no possibility of survival, that is. Only the driver could save half of his body, but soon, thick smoke billowed from the tank, and the flames would turn all the remaining limbs into charcoal.
The first car was attacked, causing the cars behind it to stop immediately. Before the captain could react what had attacked them, there was a piercing roar in the sky.
The Chadians concentrated about fifty direct-firing artillery pieces on the periphery, which was almost all the fire support of the entire front line. After confirming that the enemy had entered the ambush circle, the artillery immediately began rounds of covering fire.
Countless 105 howitzers roared out of the barrel and landed among the long lines of Libyan armored forces. .Ь.
In an instant, the entire Libyan armored regiment fell into panic. Soon, two vehicles were hit by artillery and started to catch fire, while more vehicles tried to escape from the battlefield.
But Chad's motorized infantry was in position almost at the same time and began attacking from three directions of this long line of about two kilometers long.
The Toyota pickup truck first unloaded the 107 rocket launcher dragged behind the truck, and then drove up to the high ground. The Chadian soldiers carried on the truck were also divided into two groups. One group began to adjust the artillery pitch angle and scale on the spot, and the other group began to adjust the artillery pitch angle and scale on the spot. Quickly set up their equipped Milan or TOW anti-tank missiles.
They have practiced these tasks for many days, and the process has long been familiar to them, so
Hardly anyone goes wrong.
As the missile completed its warm-up, the whistle sounded again, but this time, the whistle flew close to the ground!
The panicked Libyans didn't even notice the strange guys two kilometers away. It wasn't until tanks were bombed into the sky one after another that they were sure that there was an enemy attacking them from the side. .Ь.
But the entire team was in chaos, communication was poor, and the deafening shelling made it impossible for the Libyans to report the war situation. Several Libyan tanks that had discovered anti-tank missiles had just fired a shot, and they were gathered by the Chadians. Fire to dry.
Almost every Chadian team has a walkie-talkie, not to mention several Pioneer drones hovering in the sky. This is a product that has been selling well to the Navy, Army, and Marines after Shepard obtained the production authorization from Israel. It is only a one-year order. I placed hundreds of orders, but the Chadians got the goods before the Americans.
It can be said that in terms of current synthesis, the Chadians can be considered to be in the first echelon in the world.
Not only do individual Chadian attack groups communicate, but Chadian troops in three attack directions can also communicate with each other, and even frontline commanders can ask for artillery support authority.
At this moment, the Libyans were like a python that couldn't move. They were blocked on a narrow road and could not move forward or retreat. Even a counterattack could not achieve any effective damage, because the Chadians had done enough backup work, and a small group of artillery shells killed them. , there will be another team on top, and if a car is destroyed, someone will immediately step forward to pull the wreckage apart with chains and replace it with a new car.
The Libyans couldn't break through at all, because tanks in the front and rear were all key targets. The Chadians even took the time to knock out the command tanks equipped with high-power radios and tall antennas one by one.
After more than an hour of fierce fighting, the Chadian helicopter troops also joined the battle and began to use TOW missiles in the air to hit the tanks that were still capable of fighting.
It was not until three hours later that the sound of gunfire on the battlefield stopped.
"Stop fighting, stop fighting, cease fire, we surrender!"
Amidst the billowing black smoke and flames, a white flag that was clearly a temporary workhorse was waving feebly. At the same time, there were bursts of miserable wailing.
