Chapter 183: Battle of Tianjin 18

Yoshida Takeo looked at the scene in front of him and cursed angrily: "Bastards! These damn guys! Who gave them the authority to attack without authorization? Order them to withdraw immediately!"

He angrily observed the movements of the Chinese tank cluster through a telescope and found that the new type of tanks seemed to be gathering among them.

Judging from the direction they were heading, their goal was very clear - to pursue the Type 34 heavy tanks that were used as bait and pretended to escape from the T tanks.

However, the situation on the battlefield was not optimistic. Large-scale tank cluster combat caused the entire battlefield to be filled with thick dust, making the vision blurred.

The liaison officer waved the small flag in his hand desperately, but due to the flying dust, the signal of the flag could not be seen clearly hundreds of meters away.

At this moment, a "boom boom" sound was heard, and the T34 tanks that had been "escaping" in all directions returned to the battlefield after circling half a circle on both sides of the battlefield.

At the same time, those relatively slow and less flexible Type 5 heavy tanks were still struggling to catch up in the rear.

However, the distance between the two sides widened as they chased. When they saw that the T34, which had been fleeing in a panic, actually circled back to the battlefield.

They began to attack the Type 1 and Type 2 tanks. These hot-headed Japanese armored soldiers finally realized that they had fallen into a trap.

"Go back and reinforce immediately. These damn Chinese people are actually using evil tricks on us!"

The Japanese heavy tank squad immediately changed direction and headed towards their own formation. They had to go because without their cover and support, their comrades were being killed one by one by the Chinese tanks.

As the Japanese heavy tank units were transferred away from the main battlefield, the situation on the field changed. The originally suppressed Chinese tank units began to counterattack. They took advantage of their speed and mobility to quickly penetrate the weak links in the Japanese defense line and launched a fierce attack on the Japanese Type 1 and Type 2 tanks.

Under the impact of a large number of T34 tanks, the Japanese defense line gradually collapsed.

This battle made the Japanese army realize that they had underestimated the strength and tactical wisdom of the Chinese army.

They originally thought that with the help of the new heavy tanks they could finally defeat the Chinese army on the front battlefield, but it turned out that the Chinese army was not so easy to deal with.

"It's our turn now! The Japs have been divided! Destroy these Japs' new tanks and send them back home!"

Xu Ren sat in the familiar driver's seat again. He held the intercom tightly and said in an excited and firm voice: "Brothers, are you ready? This is the time for us to show our true strength! Let those little devils see how powerful we are!"

On the radio station, Xu Ren's words were like a burning flame, igniting the fighting spirit of the crew members of the more than 30 Huaxia Type tanks behind him. They responded in unison: "Ready!" Everyone was full of determination and courage.

Xu Ren knew very well that the key to this battle was to act quickly and not give the enemy a chance to breathe.

He stared ahead, his eyes as sharp as a hawk, ready to give orders at any time.

At this time, due to the rush to return to the main battlefield for reinforcement, the Japanese Type 5 heavy tank formation had become loose and chaotic.

The various vehicle groups were unable to form effective coordination and the distance between them became increasingly greater.

A few dull noises of "boom, boom, boom" were heard, and several shells whizzed out from the barrel of the Type 5 heavy combat vehicle.

They flew away with great power. The Japanese gunners hoped to support the Type 34 and Type tanks that were being slaughtered by T tanks on the main battlefield through long-range shooting.

However, at this moment, a scream broke the silence.

"Major! Right! Look to the right!" An observer widened his eyes and vaguely saw dozens of Chinese tanks through the smoke-filled sky and flying dust.

Major Watanabe immediately got out of the tank cabin, holding a telescope tightly in his hand, and nervously aimed it in that direction.

When he saw it clearly, an expression of astonishment appeared on his face - it was a group of new Chinese tanks looming in the smoke.

"Turn direction! Turn direction quickly! Face the enemy head-on!" Watanabe immediately shouted to the driver under him.

Hearing the major's words, the driver of the Type 5 heavy tank immediately turned the vehicle around and engaged the oncoming Chinese tank head-on.

"Boom boom boom" Just as they turned direction, balls of fire exploded from the side armor of the two Type 5 heavy battleships on their left.

Because it was hit from the side, the 105mm tungsten core armor-piercing bullet easily cut through the side armor of the Type heavy combat vehicle and directly rushed into the tank and exploded.

After an explosion occurred inside one of the Type 5 heavy tanks, flames began to spew out from all the gaps. Watanabe looked at the Type 5 heavy tank that seemed to be covered in flames, his face pale.

He knew what this meant - the ammunition in the tank exploded! He knew that the tank's ammunition depot had been detonated by the explosion, and dozens of shells had exploded, producing intense flames that continued to burn the interior of the tank.

At this moment, the inside of the tank had even been burned and liquefied. With a loud "bang", the entire tank finally turned into countless pieces after a huge explosion.

The 100mm artillery shell was blown dozens of meters into the air.

"Bakayaro! Damn Chinese!" Watanabe cursed with gritted teeth.

He didn't expect that these Chinese tanks were so powerful that they could easily penetrate the side armor of the Type 5 heavy combat vehicle.

At this time, another Type 5 heavy fighter that was hit also had problems.

Its tracks were blown off and the body of the vehicle began to burn.

The Japanese soldiers in the car jumped out to escape, but they were greeted by dense bullets and artillery shells.

"Da da da……"

"Bang bang bang..."

"Boom boom boom..."

For a moment, the sound of gunfire and artillery fire on the battlefield intertwined, playing a symphony of death.

Watanabe looked at the tragic scene around him in horror, his heart filled with despair.

Watanabe now hates the empire's military researchers and senior officials very much. Why don't they install radio stations on all tanks like China and its German allies did?

So even though he had discovered the enemy's situation, he was unable to report it immediately. In the chaotic battlefield, who would pay attention to the waving little flag?

"Where! Where did the shell come from?"

Seeing two Type 5 heavy tanks explode in front of them, the Japanese tank crew who were trying hard to return to the main battlefield immediately panicked.

Because of poor communication and the inability to communicate in a timely manner, the already scattered formation became even more chaotic.

"Boom boom boom" another series of explosions, this time two tanks were directly blown up, and the other tank was hit on the track.

One of the guide wheels was blown off, the track broke with a loud noise, and the tank immediately lay flat on the spot and started spinning.

"Quick! Quick! Right! There are a large number of new Chinese tanks on the right!"

By this time, several Japanese vehicle crews had recovered from the chaos, and based on the location of the explosion from the shells, they saw the dozens of tanks heading towards them at high speed.

"Quick! Kill them! Kill them!"
