"Continue firing!" Hasegawa's expression turned ferocious.
He didn't believe it!
He didn't believe that the enemy's tank had such thick skin!
This was because they could use their Type 94 37mm Anti-Tank Cannon to penetrate their own tanks!
Why couldn't he deal with the enemy now?
"Ha Yi!"
Bang bang bang!
The six anti-tank cannons continued firing.
But soon, the Japanese were dumbfounded. They still could not cause any damage to the enemy tanks.
In fact, the Japanese's anti-tank gun was a replica of the German KWK36 37mm anti-tank gun. The entire gun was completed in 1936. As the Japanese were unwilling to use non-explosive armor-piercing bullets, they insisted on using armor-piercing explosive bullets. Therefore, at the same distance, the armor-piercing ability of the Type 94 rapid-fire gun was about 10mm lower than that of the KWK36 37mm anti-tank gun.
Penetration:500 meters, can penetrate 40mm of uniform steel armor, 100 meters, can penetrate 30mm of armor, range against tanks:1200 meters.
On the other hand, Li Hu's T-34 tank had a 45 mm thick 32-degree angled front armor, which had a protection equivalent to 130 mm, and a 49-degree angled side armor equivalent to 100 mm. 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 88mm cannon could block it.
Therefore, the Japanese's 37mm anti-tank cannon was no threat to the T-34 tank at all!
Not only that, but the Japanese's 8 Type 95 tanks were also firing at Li Hu's tanks.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
"Haha, we've discovered the enemy's tank, start aiming!”
Boom!
The Japanese Type 95 tanks were the first to fire.
The distance between the two sides was 500 meters!
Boom!
A tank shell directly hit the T-34 tank.
However, the main weapon on the Type 95 light tank was a Type 94 37mm tank cannon, which could not penetrate the T-34 tank at all.
"Hehe, it's my turn!" The T-34 tank gunner sneered and opened fire.
At this time, the T-34 tank was equipped with a 76mm F-34 L/42 cannon. When the F-34 cannon used ordinary armor-piercing bullets, it could penetrate 69mm steel plates at a distance of 500 meters and 61mm steel plates at a distance of 1000 meters.
On the other hand, the Japanese's Type 95 tank's body and turret were made of steel armor with a riveted and welding structure. The armor was 6 - 12 mm thick, and the main part of the armor was 12 mm thick. It could only defend against light weapons.
A mere 500 meters.
Boom!
With a single blast, the Japanese tank was turned into a pile of scrap metal!
In less than five minutes, all eight Japanese tanks were scrapped!
Kudo Ichiro, who was supervising the battle from the rear, also saw this situation and felt uneasy.
"Baka, how is this possible? My Anti-Tank Missiles were useless against the enemy's tanks. Our Empire's tanks were not a match for the enemy's tanks!”Kudo Ichiro's eyes were filled with fear.
Unfortunately, no one around him could answer his question.
"Regiment Commander, it looks like we have to organize a suicide squad to blow up the enemy tanks.”Advisor Jing Zhiyuan said with a solemn expression.
"Do this immediately!"
"Ha Yi."
……
At this moment, Li Hu's tank army was only fifty meters away from the enemy's first line of defense.
Behind each tank was a group of soldiers.
"Bagaya Lu, kill Jiji!" One of the Japanese soldiers shouted as he fired his Type 92 heavy machine gun at a tank 50 meters ahead.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Bullets that could have torn a person apart hit the tank, but they only created some sparks before they bounced off or shattered.
The captain of the T34 tank, who was covered in bullets, saw the Japanese heavy machine gun team 50 meters away.
"Three o'clock direction, the enemy's heavy machine gun team, take them out!”the conductor said.
"Understood! Turn 30 degrees to the left, one high explosive.”the gunner said after observing.
" Understood. One high-explosive bomb." The stuffing hand immediately took a high explosive bomb from behind and loaded it directly.
"Filled!"
"Aim complete."
"Fire!"
Bang!
A muffled sound.
The cannonball flew out.
Boom!
The machine gun team 50 meters away was blasted into the sky, and blood and flesh flew everywhere.
At this moment.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a Japanese missile landed on the tank.
Boom!
It exploded.
Fortunately, the captain of the tank was quick to react. His head, which was originally exposed, directly shrank into the car to avoid the explosion.
"Damn it, the Japanese's cannon-throwers are quite accurate. It's really impossible to guard against them!”The car cursed.
"One o'clock, 200 meters away, there's a Japanese cannonball hidden in the trench.”The car soon found the throwing tube team.
"Good!"
Under the aim of the tank cannon, although the cannon-thrower team hid in the trenches, they were still sent to the afterlife by the tank cannon!
Da da!
Da da!
The closer they got, the fiercer the enemy's firepower became.
Rifles, heavy and light machine guns, throwing barrels, mortars, and even explosives for the suicide squad.
"10 o'clock direction, the enemy's underground machine gun bunker is very powerful. There are at least 4 heavy machine guns, please pull them out for us!”An infantryman rushed to the back of the tank and knocked on it.
"Don't worry, brother. I'll pull it out for you now.”The tank captain nodded immediately.
Boom!
With one armor-piercing round, the Japanese's underground machine gun bunker was instantly blown to pieces.
"Kill Jiji!"
At this time, the tanks had already charged into the first line of defense of the Japanese.
The infantry behind Li Hu's tank also started firing to prevent the Japanese from getting close and throwing grenades.
Under the lead of 310 tanks, it was like a sharp sword that directly stabbed into the enemy's abdomen!
It was like a hot knife through butter!
