Blitzkrieg was a battle of tanks. Tanks and infantry worked together, and then concentrated artillery and aircraft bombardments were carried out, with the help of mechanized troops.
This new combat method was invented during World War II.
The Second World War, the Blitzkrieg, left a deep mark. Especially in the early and middle stages of World War II, he was simply an existence that could kill gods and buddhas in his way. The German army even had the idea that there was no enemy that could not be taken down in one armored charge. If there was, then they would use two armored charges.
Blitzkrieg was a combination of surprise attacks and fast attacks, striking the enemy like lightning! Make full use of the speed advantage of aircraft, tanks, and mechanized units to defeat the enemy by surprise attack. Use mechanized units to quickly cut through the enemy's main force. It could cause the enemy to lose their morale under the sudden threat, causing them to immediately collapse under the first huge blow.
The powerful German army, coupled with the powerful "cheat" blitzkrieg tactics. After conquering Bo Lan in 27 days, Danmai in 1 day, Novi in 23 days, Helan in 5 days, and Pili in 18 days, even the Feudal Lord Nation, known as the strongest army in Europe, only lasted 39 days in the face of the powerful blitzkrieg. In the past few months since the start of the war, Germany had swept through Western Europe and was unstoppable.
Especially in the Battle of Bo Lan, the German army had more than 200,000 soldiers and defeated more than 800,000 enemy soldiers!
Li Hu felt that if he had a few hundred tanks, infantrymen, and artillery support, it would be easy for him to charge at the 8th division.
There was no need for aircraft support at all!
First of all, the 8th division did not have anti-tank cannons, so the Japanese could not do anything to Li Hu's tanks!
This was also why he wanted to use lightning to deal with the Japanese!
If he used the infantry to attack the Japanese, both sides would have similar numbers. Even if he won with his all-rounded strength, he would have to pay a huge price!
If he used the tanks to take the lead and block the enemy's firepower, then used the tanks to break the enemy's defense line, and the infantry worked together to harvest, it would be perfect!
Moreover, the Japanese infantry's firepower was not comparable to the Western army. Once they encountered a tank charge, it would be difficult to resist!
"System!" Li Hu thought to himself.
"Search for tanks!"
[Tank #4: 500 points]
[T34 tank: 500 points.]
[Sherman Tank: 500 points]
[SI-2 tank: 600 points.]
[Tiger Tank: 600 points.]
[Tiger King Tank: 700 points.]
…
"Right now, I have a total of 157,000 points.”Li Hu thought for a while and had an ideal choice for a tank.
Of course, it was the cheap and durable T34 tank.
The main thing was that this tank was also an excellent tank in World War II.
The T-34 tank weighed 32 tons, had an engine power of 500 horsepower, a maximum road speed of 75 kilometers per hour, and a maximum range of 400 kilometers. It was equipped with a 76 mm tank gun. It was a tank with outstanding firepower, protection, and mobility.
The T-34 tank was well-balanced in terms of armor, firepower, and power. The thickness of the armor was 45 mm, similar to the German tanks III and IV, but the front armor had a 32-degree angle and the side armor had a 49-degree angle. The turret was cast in a hexagonal shape. The front armor was 60mm thick, and the side armor was 45mm thick. The inclined angle of the body extended all the way to the turret, so the T-34 looked almost like a right triangle from the front. There were two advantages to the slanted armor. First, it was easy for the shell to bounce off after hitting the target (i.e.,"ricochet"), which greatly reduced its power. Secondly, according to the American armor-piercing bullet formula, the penetration power of the armor-piercing bullet was proportional to the caliber of the bullet. Therefore, when shot by the German 75mm cannon, the front armor of the T-34 tank with a thickness of 45mm and a 32-degree angle was equivalent to 130mm, while the side armor with a 49-degree angle was equivalent to 100mm. Such a frontal armor directly caused any artillery equipped with German tanks in 1941 to be unable to penetrate at a distance of 500 meters. Only the German 88 mm cannon could block it.
"The T34 tank is almost invincible in China!”Li Hu thought to himself.
"Buy 300 T34 tanks directly!”
Shua!
Instantly, he spent 150,000 points and was left with 7000 points.
Then, Li Hu used the 7,000 points to buy some gasoline, tank shells, and some auxiliary materials needed by the tank. He had just spent 7000 points.
"At that time, I can summon another 1500 clone soldiers to be used as tank soldiers!”Li Hu muttered to himself.
……
Outside Jin City.
Kudo Ichiro asked the staff officer beside him,""When will the 79th Brigade arrive at Jinzhou City?”
"I contacted the 79th Brigade just now. They will probably arrive tomorrow afternoon!”the staff officer reported.
"Tomorrow afternoon? It was a little too late! I'm afraid that the 108th Brigade on the other side will sense something is wrong and withdraw from Jin Zhou City. When they hide deep in the mountains, it will be difficult for us to annihilate them.”Kudo Ichiro frowned.
The 8th division was to the north of Jin Zhou City, and the 79th Brigade was to surround the south of Jin Zhou City. There were no troops to intercept the enemy in the south of Jin Zhou City unless the 79th Brigade could arrive today!
Otherwise, the 108th Brigade could retreat at any time and they would not be able to stop them.
"Regiment Commander, the 79th Brigade is traveling on foot, so we can't speed up.”the staff officer said helplessly.
"Alright, have you calculated how long the food in Jinzhou City can last?”Kudo Ichiro asked.
"We have already plundered the surplus grain in Jin City. According to the previous information, the entire city can only last for half a month at most!”
"What about the 108th Brigade? How long do you think their ammunition can last?”Kudo Ichiro asked.
"A conservative estimate is that if they fight with high intensity, it will take at most a week.”the staff officer said. This was a small ammunition depot in Jinzhou City.
"Yuxi! Looks like we'll have to exhaust the enemy's ammunition from time to time. Send down the order to gather all the Imperial Association soldiers and security guards in the nearby towns. Let them be cannon fodder to consume the enemy's ammunition!”Kudo Ichiro laughed sinisterly.
"Ha Yi!"
……
3 PM.
It had been three hours since the first battle with the Japanese.
Li Hu led a battalion of soldiers to the southern suburbs of Jinzhou City and left the city.
After all, the 8th division was in the north, and there were no enemies in the south.
"Search for any enemies nearby. If there are, eliminate them all and be on guard!”Li Hu said to the cloned soldiers.
Half an hour later, Li Hu confirmed that there was no one else here.
"System, summon 300 tanks and 1500 clone soldiers!”Li Hu continued.
In an instant, 300 tanks and 1500 muscular clone soldiers appeared in the area.
"Hahaha, everyone, get on the tank and drive the tank back to the city!”Li Hu said.
"Yes, sir!"
