Chapter 179 It's Really Fun
"Division Commander, the Soviets are going too far! They only let our personnel pass through and wanted to keep our equipment." Yoshida Jiro, whose cheeks were bulging from being slapped, said to the division commander Jiang Teng Fifty-four: "I argued with them, but I was beaten in the end."
Jiro Yoshida, a staff officer at the 2nd Division headquarters, volunteered to ask the Soviets to give way, but was beaten back!
Even Yoshida Jiro didn't know the real reason why he was beaten. In short, the other side humiliated him, which was a humiliation to the 2nd Division! Only letting personnel pass, not allowing them to take away equipment, that was the treatment of prisoners, and they didn't surrender!
"Baka!" Upon hearing what Yoshida Jiro said, the deputy division commander, Major General Hideyoshi, immediately became angry: "Why don't we just rush out like this! Let's see what the Soviets can do to us! If you want to fight, just fight. We are not afraid at all!"
Jiang Teng Fifty-four, with a dark face, looked at his adjutant and shook his head: "No, we have lost now. The United States has agreed to the Soviet occupation request. What else can we do? Now, the most important thing is to take our troops out. When we get to Sapporo, we will reorganize the army. One day, we will fight back!"
This time, the United States had no choice. If the Soviets were not stopped as soon as possible, they might really reach Honshu. However, after this lesson, the United States began to adjust its deployment. It is said that the United States will have two army divisions stationed in Honshu. Maybe it won't be long before they can fight back!
As for the equipment on our side? Just leave it here. There is no other way. Besides, most of the tanks in our division are Type 61, and there are only a few Type 74. The other equipment should also be replaced with new ones. As long as the army can leave safely, we can find a way to replace the equipment later.
"Send a request to Sapporo." Jiang Teng Fifty-four said, "If Sapporo agrees, then we will prepare to retreat."
If we are surrounded here by the Soviets again, I don’t know what will happen.
Just as he finished speaking, the lights in the room suddenly went out, and the roar of the equipment outside also disappeared.
"What's going on?" Jiang Teng Fifty-Four asked.
"The Soviets have cut off our electricity supply." An adjutant ran in and said, "Our water supply has also been cut off."
Damn the Soviets! Hearing this, Jiang Teng fifty-four clenched his fists, and veins popped up on his arms.
This is too much! The Soviets are forcing us to agree!
There is a generator in the base, but it is impossible to supply the base with unlimited use, and the power is not enough. Moreover, the water source of the base is completely dependent on external supply.

"Commander, your order just now was so exciting." Just on the outskirts of the city, in the headquarters of the 5th Tank Division, a tall soldier said to Andre.
This guy just swung his arm without showing any room for maneuver. Andre looked at this guy and slapped the chicken until it bled in two strokes. Andre was also very satisfied. If it weren't for his status and the fear of it getting out and causing a conflict, Andre really wanted to go up and beat him up a few times.
The soldier, with the rank of sergeant on his shoulders, was looking at Andre with great joy.
"Sergeant, what's your name?" Andre asked him.
"Prushenko, commander of tank No. 5, 2nd Platoon, 4th Company, 3rd Battalion, 32nd Tank Regiment, 5th Tank Division." Plushenko said. He came to the headquarters to report the situation, and just happened to hear Andrei calling for people to beat up the chicken, so he immediately started.
"Prushenko, how did our tanks perform in this battle?" Andrei asked.
As the elite of the Far East Military Region, the 5th Tank Division is equipped with T-64 tanks, the absolute iron fist of the Soviet Union. What is the combat effectiveness of this tank? Through this actual combat, the superiors also want to know.
"Excellent performance! The Japanese Type 61 and Type 74 tanks simply cannot penetrate our main armor. Our tanks have strong protection and their main guns are very powerful. Our armor-piercing shells can easily tear apart the main armor of the Japanese tanks." Plushenko said.
There were not many encounters along the way, and his Type 5 tank only fired a dozen shells. However, the strength of the T-64 tank has been tested through this battle!
The T-72 tanks of the 14th Tank Division had simplified armor and their protection was not as good as that of the T-64. It was said that in the defense of Kushiro, the T-72 tank was penetrated and its turret was blown off. This was a nightmare for the armored soldiers.
In the past, tank soldiers were almost all short people from Central Asia. After all, the space inside the tank was limited. However, with the continuous emergence of new tanks, the space inside the tank has gradually increased, and tall people like Plushenko can also become tank soldiers.
"So what are the shortcomings of our tanks?" Andre asked. The problems exposed in the battle were more important.
"The automatic loader is somewhat unreliable." Colonel Dorofeyev, the division commander, said, "Several of our soldiers were injured by the automatic loader. In addition, during combat, the automatic loader sometimes malfunctions inexplicably. In addition, our night combat capability is not outstanding."
The T-64 was the first Soviet tank to use an automatic loader. The number of internal members was reduced to three to free up space. However, the initial targets were too high, resulting in the automatic loader of this tank being very complicated. After being equipped to the troops, it was criticized.
At the same time, although both sides now have infrared headlights for night vision devices, Dorofeyev has felt that they are not enough for actual combat. His own 125mm artillery can fire armor-piercing shells up to 2,000 meters away. However, at night, the advantage of range cannot be brought into play, with a night vision distance of only 800 meters. The sophisticated fire control system has almost become a decoration.
"Well, the troops will sort out these shortcomings and report them to the military district, asking the Morozov Design Bureau to make improvements." Andrei said, "When we seize the islanders' equipment, we can use it to test the artillery."
This time, Andrei proposed that the islanders could not take any equipment away, and Yazov agreed immediately. The reason was simple. If he could get some of the islanders' equipment, he could make a comparison. For example, he could test how far his own armor-piercing shells could penetrate the main armor of the Type 74. Or he could test how powerful the Type 74's 105mm tank gun was. After all, the L7 tank gun was a standard NATO equipment.
"Boom!" At this moment, a loud explosion was heard outside.
