fire!
Because the tank is made of steel, it transfers temperature extremely efficiently.
And more importantly, the tank relies on the engine to run, and the engine relies on fuel to run.
The tank's fuel tank was not solid, and this was one of their weaknesses.
Once the fuel tank encounters high temperature or deforms, the tank will suffer fatal damage.
The gasoline that tilts out will burn or even explode inside the tank.
It is conceivable that such an explosion will destroy the tank from the inside!
However, a weakness is a weakness, but the troops that can really attack the tank's weaknesses have not been born yet!
As the chief designer of the tank, Liu Zheng has long been aware of the tank's flaws!
After the tank was developed, he told his troops how to prevent the tank from encountering such danger.
Bu-tank cooperative combat is one of them!
At this time, the Longyan Army under the cover of the tank came into play!
Before there were tanks, the British army lost more than they won against Long Yan's army.
The strength of the Long Yan Army does not appear behind the tanks.
The infantry of the Longyan Army entered the battlefield. Marshal William saw the infantry hiding behind the tanks and rushed to the front line.
Directly delaying their attack distance from the Longyan Army, the current situation is as follows.
Their grenades are difficult to directly affect the tanks, and can only pose a certain threat to the Longyan Army.
But again, this kind of attack that damages the enemy by one thousand and damages itself by eight hundred does not hurt the core of the enemy's army.
It's better not to use it.
Marshal William frowned. Under such conditions, it was impossible for them to destroy the tank.
Moreover, the shortage of troops directly led to their inability to fight.
Rumble, under the cover of the tanks, the Long Yan Army's attack became more and more fierce.
We are about to attack the dike.
Marshal William pulled out the sword from his waist and gritted his teeth and said, "Follow me to attack!"
He would risk his life if the Long Yan Army could attack the dam so easily and win the battle.
Then they will not have any advantage at the next negotiation table!
At this time, the British army, which had returned from defense, finally arrived.
But by this time, it was already too late, Long Yan's army attacked underground of the dam.
With the support of tanks, it is unstoppable.
The British army tried their best, but they were unable to delay the tank troops at all.
Although the fuel bombs they developed are effective, they are not very effective. Fire attacks do great damage to tanks.
But when faced with the infantry of the Long Yan Army, these things are not even as powerful as grenades.
The infantry of the British army gave up using fuel bombs to attack, and instead turned to using muskets and artillery to suppress the tank attack.
However, at this time, tanks with ultra-long attack range were able to attack the embankment!
Their artillery fires out in unison!
One after another cannonballs hit the dike, and the dike, which was originally weak, suddenly cracked.
After Marshal William saw these holes, he was terrified!
Once the dam opens, it means that the dam is not far from collapse.
"Long Yanjun is crazy!"
"Their troops are still on the battlefield, yet they dare to attack like this!"
"This is playing with fire!"
Marshal William issued an urgent order: "Retreat, retreat!"
Although Long Yanjun was playing with fire, Marshal William was completely unwilling to risk his life with Long Yanjun like this!
All they want are better terms for negotiation.
The outcome of this war has long been decided.
Marshal William, who was still charging, immediately turned around the dock and charged outside.
The British army saw that their generals began to flee, and they would not continue to fight here.
Instead, retreat with General William!
There was a hole in the dam, and water overflowed little by little.
It is not difficult to foresee that the outcome of a collapse here will be born.
Such a situation would be extremely dangerous for any army, even the Long Yan Army.
But the soldiers of the Long Yan Army did not panic at all.
Everything is still within their plan.
…
After today, the entire Yorktown turned into a desert.
The levee was damaged and the raging river directly flooded the entire Yorktown.
And those British troops were forced to do nothing.
After hearing the news of the fall of Yorktown, Old Pete ran away without any hesitation.
Fortunately, he ran in time and the river did not drown him in it.
The British army of 60,000 people lost more than 20,000 people in an instant.
Yorktown also turned into ruins directly after this battle.
Ling Chen finally marked the fact on the map that York Town had become ruins.
They have won this war.
…
George, who was far away in Philadelphia, finally waited anxiously for news from the front line.
A document was handed to him. George looked at the content and almost cried with excitement.
"Yorktown was lost, we defeated the British army, we won!"
"we won!"
George couldn't control himself at all.
The victory in this war was hard-won.
They, America, have already sacrificed too much in this war.
After all this victory, George suddenly felt that everything was worth it.
They got the win.
…
At this time, George III, who was far away in Britain, also received news of the fall of Yorktown.
Old Peter has rushed back to Britain.
At this time, he had already reported the situation on the battlefield to George III.
George III, the British Prime Minister, was extremely moved by his experiences in America.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, are you saying that the army owned by Long Yanjun has surpassed ours by a lot?"
"It is absolutely true, Your Majesty, the tanks manufactured by the Long Yan Army are already the most powerful weapons in the world. There is no way for us to compete with the Long Yan Army now."
"Yorktown has been reduced to a desert state, and all of our military bases in North America have been reduced."
George III looked horrified, and all the ministers were horrified, worried about themselves and especially what Long Yan would do next.
Long Yan also has military bases in Europe.
Although Britain is mainly established on the island of England, if the Longyan Army declares war on Britain completely.
Britain's largest overseas colony is likely to fall.
"Prime Minister, what do you think should be done?"
"Your Majesty, please make peace and recognize America's independence."
"Although this will cost us the American colonies, it will temporarily save our Britain."
"And your Majesty can rest assured that I have already arranged a back-up team in America. Even if we negotiate a peace, America behind us will be under our control."
The back-up force that Old Pete was talking about was the assassination team. Their original mission was to assassinate Liu Zheng.
But now their mission has become to stay in America and gradually penetrate America.
