1125 Coordinated Advancement of Tanks and Infantry

How to enter the battlefield, retain the advantage and then expand the advantage is very troublesome.

One commander came up with the idea of ​​building fortifications in situ. They could have engineers build some fortifications using some buildings, thus driving nails into the city and using the fortifications as a springboard to spread outward.

There is nothing wrong with this style of play. The only drawback is that it is too slow. It takes time to build fortifications. After the fortifications are stabilized and then expanded, a few days or even a week will pass.

What they want to conquer is a city, not a stronghold. This idea is obviously not suitable for use here.

Compared to such a slow approach, some commanders still tend to find ways to destroy the opponent's weapons and equipment that can bring down the aircraft, and then conduct saturation bombing.

Wipe the entire city off the map and there won't be any problem.

During the discussion, someone knocked on the door of the command vehicle. Then a first-level field employee stood outside the door and saluted and said, "The transportation team from the rear has arrived. I hope a commander can go over and sign."

"Supplies?"

One commander looked at the others and said, "Who requested supplies?"

The current frontline command method is still decided by everyone through discussion. This is to give the commanders deployed by the military a sense of participation.

But important decisions are still made by the company's people, including applying for bombing and using special bombs.

Applying for supplies does not require high authority, but there is no shortage of supplies now, so there is no need to rush to apply for supplies.

The other commanders also looked at a loss, and they did not apply. Finally, the third-level commander who came down from Amelia stood up and got out of the command vehicle.

These people have the highest level and the most power.

But when he came to the place where the supply truck was parked, he was shocked by what he saw.

They were very large transport vehicles. They were not supply vehicles or trucks in the traditional sense.

Behind the huge front of the car, there were only trailers, and parked on the racks was something he had never seen before, a very different type of armored vehicle.

It has the chassis of most armored vehicles, but it also has a "cover" that other armored vehicles don't have. It's a turtle shell-like cover with a gun barrel sticking out at the front.

"Is that a gun barrel?", he asked the person in charge of transportation while holding the document.

The man nodded, "It's the barrel."

"Can we fire?" the commander asked again.

"Yes, you can fire."

Such an affirmative answer made the commanders excited. They had just been discussing how to effectively establish occupied areas and build fortifications, and now these things were sent later.

Honestly, very timely!

Its value is greater than that of aircraft because it can effectively provide reliable defense force for occupied areas.

It's not afraid of bullets, of course it may be afraid of explosions, but it doesn't look like its speed is too slow. At the same time, it also has strong firepower, which will be a serious threat to the enemy.

Strategies to expand your advantage can work!

He lowered his head and quickly signed the document to confirm that he had received this... He glanced at the number, fifteen tanks.

Then he walked back to the command vehicle excitedly and told what he saw here.

Immediately after the roar, the commanders could no longer sit still. They went to the parking spot to look at the chariots parked on the ground. They all showed excited expressions.

At the same time, the company engineers and drivers who came with the tanks also reported to the commanders, and they would teach the soldiers how to use these things.

At the same time, they will also observe the use of tanks on the front line to provide necessary basis for subsequent improvements.

There were even two more military observers from the Ministry of National Defense, and they seemed to be here specifically for these tanks.

Then commanders began looking for employees with driving experience and employees who had served in artillery units...

The next day, the commander unexpectedly gave everyone a "holiday". People needed to get familiar with how to use these tanks.

At the same time, commanders also need to increase their understanding of the tactical thinking of tanks. The "Product Manual" that comes with these tanks contains some ideological guidance for collaborative operations between tanks and infantry.

It is said that these ideological guidance were completed by Mr. Lynch alone!

The calm day relaxed the tense nerves of both sides. The federal people gathered around the chariots curiously, while the Marillos and Mallorians who stayed in the city were leisurely drinking and eating. Barbecue.

It was dark on the third day. On the roof of a four-story building near the edge of the city, a prostrate local man used a telescope to observe everything outside the city circle.

The job was dull and tedious. His comrades had been holding on all night, and now it was his turn.

Yesterday, he lay here like this for most of the day. The ever-changing scenery in the wild made it easy to feel bored and boring, which also produced a feeling of entrapment.

At this time, the sky was just getting brighter, but it was not completely bright yet, and it was still hard to see clearly.

Just when he was yawning and wondering whether the Federals would not attack today and whether they had given up, he observed a bit of light.

He looked carefully and saw a large number of federal people and a few things that looked like cars, running towards the edge of the city.

He shouted loudly, and then everyone in the four-story building was awakened. Radio waves continued to be sent out frequently, and signals were also transmitted through the phone lines. The whole city seemed to wake up in an instant. , became ferocious and terrifying!

The little warlord leader who was sleeping in the back was also woken up. He put on a major's military uniform and went to the roof. He picked up a telescope and looked into the distance. In fact, he couldn't see anything.

Cursing and greeting the federal people for disturbing his sweet dream, he asked others to prepare breakfast.

As far as he was concerned, today was another day like any other, with the Federals coming in and being driven out after nightfall, and nothing else going on.

It's not that he looked down on the Federals. The Federals simply didn't have the courage to sacrifice themselves, not even the soldiers of warlords like them.

At least the warlord's soldiers dare to resist and sacrifice. They will give everything for the mission instead of running away after a while.

But the subsequent sound of shelling stunned the warlord leader.

The Federals had carried out shelling before, but the effect of the shelling was very poor. Everyone was spread out widely, and there were often only three or five people in each building.

Dozens or hundreds of artillery shells fired in have no meaning at all. Apart from destroying some buildings, they will not have a very good effect on effectively killing their soldiers.

At the end of the fight, the Federals gave up on their own initiative.

I didn’t expect it to fire again now!

The warlord leader smiled and continued eating breakfast.

But he didn't know that the shelling this time was not from field artillery, but from those tanks.

Ryan shook his head and looked at the destruction of a three-story building opposite, with a smile on his face.

What they encountered the most during the attack were all kinds of people who were engaged in illegal activities.

These people are hiding in doorways of various buildings, behind windows, anywhere you can think of and where you can't think of them.

They are quietly observing everything outside. You may not be able to spot them, but they have already spotted you and shot you.

Many times they will be trapped in a certain building and fight back outside. Without clearing out certain enemies, it will be difficult for them to move forward.

But the situation is different now. The appearance of tanks can easily destroy buildings where they think the enemy is hiding.

A collapsed house can crush all the enemies inside and clear a difficult-to-clear point at once, which plays a very critical role in the advancement of urban warfare.

Although the artillery support from the rear is also very useful, those artillery cannot hit a certain house accurately and can only carry out saturation strikes at a certain coordinate. The loss of the artillery shells is too great.

It’s not like no one has thought about taking field artillery to the battlefield, but what if these field artillery are taken away by the opponent?

This means that their camp must continue to retreat, extending the distance and time of the attack.

But things are different now. These tanks can effectively hit a target they need to destroy with one shell. The efficiency has improved, the cost has dropped, and the speed has accelerated, which has doubled the speed of advancement.

Ryan shook off some dust that fell on his head due to the vibration during the shelling. He bent forward and quickly advanced with his comrades in a puff of smoke.

The front line is slowly and effectively advancing into the city. In addition to destroying buildings and effectively killing the enemy, these tanks can also play an observation role.

Wherever someone is shooting, there are almost no blind spots for the tanks appearing on the street.

With the assistance of some infantry, this attack was far more efficient than before.

Then the second group of employees entered the city, and these people will carry out the second cleanup of all buildings in the occupied area.

All houses that have been cleaned and considered safe will have their doors and windows nailed shut. This is also the experience learned in previous battles.

If you encounter some houses that are not easy to solve, destroy them on the spot.

At the same time, a second batch of bombers was flying from federal territory to the temporary airport at the junction of the federal and Marillo.

This second batch of bombers will fly higher, carry more weight, and perform better.

Money is always the first driving force for technology, and this sentence is not true at all.

Stimulated by the huge dividends, everyone in the Flight Research Institute achieved financial freedom in an instant.

A 5% dividend means that their team of less than 100 people will receive a dividend of no less than 20 million, and this dividend will last for a long time.

With the stimulation of this money, the researchers are no longer satisfied with the current situation. They do not need Mr. Lynch to put pressure on them, and they actively start to exploit themselves.

High-intensity work, except for sleep and rest, there is almost no time for entertainment.

So much so that Lynch had to ask the chief engineer to take the initiative to arrange some calls for everyone to relax occasionally and prevent them from damaging their brains.

Under such circumstances, the research on the project is advancing at an alarming speed.
