"Baka Yalu!" A Japanese Machine Gunner kept firing at the advancing Tiger King tank.
The bullets that could have torn a person to pieces had no effect on the tank other than producing sparks!
"Mortars, mortars! Boom!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
However, it was difficult for mortars to hit the moving tanks. Even if he could hit it, he might not be able to break through the thick armor.
The ultimate weapon against tanks was the Anti-Tank Cannon!
Of course, if there were a large number of heavy artillery to carry out a dense carpet bombing, it would be possible, but Matsumoto Kojiro did not!
Not to mention him, even a Class A division would not have such a 'luxurious' weapon group!
"Have we pulled out our anti-tank cannons?”Kotaro Matsumoto hoped that their only six anti-tank cannons would bring them good luck.
"I pulled it out. I'm training it now!"
Bang bang bang!
Da da!
Li Hu's 10 tanks led a battalion of soldiers and continued to advance toward the city wall.
At this moment, they were only 300 meters away.
On the top of the city wall, some of the machine guns on the city wall kept spitting fire.
However, the Japanese were still unable to deal with the advance of these ten tanks.
Bang!
On the city wall, a ghost had just popped his head out and fired a shot. He was about to retreat when he was shot in the neck and died with hatred.
Similar situations kept happening on the city wall.
First of all, Li Hu's forces had reached 4,000 men!
Each of them aimed at the top of the wall from a distance of 500 meters. Once someone appeared, they would immediately fire.
Due to such a long distance, the Japanese couldn't reach them at all. They could only rely on the Japanese's machine guns to counterattack.
However, the mortars and machine guns on Li Hu's side were not to be trifled with either.
Originally, there were over 1,000 Japanese soldiers, and over 300 of them were killed by the bombardment, so their military strength was already insufficient.
Now, the Japanese were at a complete disadvantage, be it in terms of firepower or military strength!
Although they were relying on the city wall, if they did not have the city wall to rely on, they would probably have been defeated by now!
"Baka Yalu, why is the enemy's firepower so strong? How could their marksmanship be so accurate? Why did they have so many mortars?”Kotaro Matsumoto roared through gritted teeth.
"Your Excellency, our six anti-tank cannons have been trained and can fire at any time!”a subordinate said.
"Yuxi, fire immediately and kill the enemy tank!”
"Ha Yi!"
The six Type 94 37mm anti-tank cannons of the Japanese finally opened fire.
Bang bang bang!
The Six Method Cannons fired at Li Hu's tanks.
As it was the first time they tried firing, none of the shells hit the tank.
"Again!"
"Ha Yi!"
Bang bang bang!
Finally, the second shot, three out of the six shells hit the Tiger King tank.
The main reason was that the Tiger King tank was not fast at the moment. Coupled with its huge size, it was hit. It could also be seen that the Japanese artillery was very strong and their accuracy was quite high!
"Kuaixi, it's a hit!" When Matsumoto Kotaro saw this, he immediately slapped his thigh and jumped up excitedly!
Thrust!
One of the shells hit the front armor of a Tiger King tank, but it only caused a spark. Then, the shell bounced off and flew to the side.
The other two shells exploded on the other two tanks. After the dust settled, the Japanese were horrified to find that the ten tanks were completely unharmed. They only paused for a moment and continued charging towards them!
"Nani? Our anti-tank cannons are useless against their tanks?”Yoshizawa-kun was shocked.
"Baka Yalu! Continue bombarding. If one time doesn't work, then two times. If two times doesn't work, then three times!”Kotaro Matsumoto said with a ferocious expression.
"Ha Yi!"
However, the Japanese could only do nothing!
What level was the Tiger King tank?
Heavy tanks!
In his previous life, no anti-tank cannon could pose much of a threat to its front armor. Unless one attacked its weak armor from the side or behind, they would have a chance of destroying it.
If it was a direct confrontation, hehe!
The front armor of the Tiger King was 150mm thick, and the front of the turret was also protected by 180mm thick armor. Moreover, the body and the turret were inclined, so the protective performance was extremely excellent. At that time, the 75mm anti-tank guns that were commonly equipped by the allies could only penetrate it at zero distance.
What did he mean by only being able to penetrate at zero distance?
In other words, your Anti-Tank Cannon would need to be close to the Tiger King Tank in order to penetrate it.
If the two sides were ten meters apart, the power of your anti-tank cannon would not be enough to penetrate the opponent's armor!
How terrifying!
Not to mention that the Japanese's anti-tank cannon was only a 37mm caliber garbage anti-tank cannon!
Even if I let you hit me casually, you won't be able to penetrate it!
This Japanese's Type 94 37mm Anti-Tank Cannon's armor penetration was very weak. When fired from 100 meters away, it only had 30mm of armor penetration. When fired from 500 meters away, it only had 20mm of armor penetration. When fired from 1000 meters away, it only had a pitiful 8mm penetration!
In the end, Li Hu's tank was still about 50 meters away from the Japanese wall.
At this moment, all the tanks stopped.
One by one, they turned their tanks and aimed at the city gate of Jin Zhou.
Bang bang bang!
Tanks bombarded the city gates one after another.
Instantly, the entire city gate was filled with explosions and smoke, making it impossible to see clearly.
"Baka, they're bombing the city gates!”Kotaro Matsumoto's face was ashen. He knew very well that once the city gate was breached, the enemy would most likely be able to charge in!
"Commander, don't panic. Not only has our city gate been replaced with an iron gate, but there are also bags of soil piled up behind the gate. They are five meters thick and fill the entire city gate passageway! The enemy's tank can't break through it!" Yoshizawa-kun smiled ingratiatingly.
"Yuxi, it's already six o'clock. We only need to hold on for another half an hour before the sky turns completely dark. Tomorrow, we might have reinforcements!”Kotaro Matsumoto nodded and prayed.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Ten tanks bombarded the city gate for a full three minutes!
"Reporting, Commander, something bad has happened. Our city gate has been broken!”One of his subordinates rushed over to report the situation.
"Nani? How is that possible?"
What he didn't know was that Li Hu's Tiger King tank was equipped with a precise 88mmK43L71 tank cannon!
It was equivalent to the power of an 80mm infantry cannon!
Especially after using the armor-piercing bullets, the iron gate and the 5-meter-thick bags of soil in the city could not be blocked at all under the three minutes of bombardment. They were directly blown apart!
