Chapter 1079 1080 Leave it to us
"Attack! Attack!" A group of goblin soldiers shouted crazily and rushed towards the Tang army's position: "For His Majesty the Mirage Emperor!"
With such shouts, the tanks of the 2nd Armored Division of the Mirage Army once again gathered and charged towards the Tang Army's position.
A heavy tank took the lead and drove straight towards the head of Leping Village, which had been bombarded with only ruins left. It swayed its bulky body, covering the densely packed Mirage soldiers, and returned to the position where they had just retreated.
"The enemy is coming!" A Datang paratrooper loudly reminded his companions, and then the sound of machine guns began to roar. Tracer bullets shuttled back and forth between the two armies, and the entire battlefield instantly became noisy.
The Tang Army's mortars fired shells. These shells fell into the crowd of Mirage Army infantry, lifting the dwarves into the air.
Even so, the mirage army continued to attack at all costs. They filled up battalions of troops, as if they were preparing to consume all their troops.
Soon the Tang Army's rifle grenades began to join the battle. They threw the shells out, and some even hit the Mirage Army's tanks accurately.
However, there is a high probability that rifle grenades will not be able to damage tanks. The tanks of the Mirage Army continued to move forward after being hit, as if they were not affected at all.
But soon another Mirage tank was hit by a mortar shell and paralyzed on the road. The soldiers of the Mirage Army bypassed the tank like ants and continued to attack the Tang Army's position despite artillery fire.
The Second Armored Division of the Mirage Army also seemed to have a premonition that the battle situation was not good for them, so they launched a desperate attack more desperately than ever before.
However, they faced the Tang Army's paratroopers who had been strengthened. These paratroopers had been supplemented with RPG rocket launchers. Their anti-tank capabilities were obviously beyond the capabilities of the Mirage Army's armored forces.
Another tank was penetrated by an RPG rocket. Even though it was facing the paratroopers' position with the thickest armor directly in front, it was still penetrated.
There is no way, after all, the armor of Mirage tanks is still too thin, especially those so-called light tanks, which are basically on the same level as armored vehicles.
Tanks with thicker armor are also being lost, but when attacking such tanks, the Tang Army's paratroopers must circle back to the side before they can fire. RPG rockets cannot penetrate the frontal armor of such tanks, so these mirage heavy tanks are still very threatening.
The battle is continuing, and in the south of Leping Village, a tank with a semicircular turret has rolled over the field ridge, and its slender muzzle has been pointed in the direction of Leping Village.
Inside the body of this Type 59 main battle tank, the gunner is using his sight to observe the battlefield ahead. There is thick smoke there, and an enemy tank can be vaguely seen rushing towards it from the small high ground on the flank. village.
"Stop!" the commander shouted loudly, then opened his hatch, leaned out and used a telescope to carefully observe the situation on the battlefield: "It's about 700 meters ahead! Do you see the target?"
"I saw it, it is moving sideways, and the hit rate of the attack may not be too high now!" The gunner also wanted to fire a shot, but their shells were really limited, so he was a little reluctant.
“Then let’s move closer!” The commander also felt that it seemed a bit irrational to open fire and expose himself in such a place.
So he retracted into the tank, but did not close his hatch cover: "Keep going! Let's close the distance to 300 meters!"
He is very confident in his tanks and believes that the enemy's tanks may not be able to penetrate him at a distance of 300 meters.
At a relatively short distance of 300 meters, his tank gun can guarantee to penetrate any target! And the accuracy will also increase to a level that satisfies them, which can save precious shells.
Since then, the 59 tank continued to move forward. It ran over the field ridge and even saw the Tang paratroopers deployed behind Leping.
These paratroopers immediately waved their arms after seeing their own tanks. They did not shout, as if they were worried that their cheers would alert the enemy.
A machine gunner in a foxhole still had a bandage on his arm. He jumped out of his foxhole and ran all the way to the side of the 59 tank. He watched five pairs of road wheels run over him and smiled excitedly. He stood up: "Reinforcements are coming, our armored division is coming!"
More paratroopers saw the 59th main battle tank approaching the village. After the first tank approached the village, the second and third main battle tanks of the Tang Army also appeared in the south of the village.
The turret of the first Tang Army tank that drove into the village began to rotate rapidly. The terrifying 105mm tank gun pointed in the direction of the enemy tank, and then a shell flew out of the barrel.
The smoke-smoking device extracted the smoke from the tank gun and sprayed it all out from the muzzle. This function is not available on previous tanks. It ensures the air quality inside the tank and allows the crew to continue fighting in a relatively comfortable environment.
The fired shell suddenly penetrated a Mirage heavy tank that was crossing the ruins barrier. Because the armor-piercing ability was too strong, the shells flew out from the other side and knocked away several Mirage soldiers. Yes, the shell penetrated the tank, entering from one side and exiting from the other side. The tank that was penetrated by it burst into flames in an instant, and exploded a few seconds later.
No Goblin crew members escaped from the burning tank, which means that everyone inside may have been killed the moment the tank was penetrated.
An armor-piercing projectile with only one long rod will cause a large amount of fragmentation damage after penetrating the armor. The technology of this discarding sabot armor-piercing projectile ensures strong penetration capabilities. Its technical requirements are very high. Other countries simply do not have this type of projectile. kind.
Seeing one of their own tanks being destroyed, the Mirage soldiers who heard the deafening sound of cannons discovered that on the other side of the village, there was an unknown tank with white smoke emitting from the muzzle. The main gun from above was pointed at them.
The Mirage soldiers who were at a loss for a while did not realize the seriousness of the problem. They pointed at the 59 tanks in the distance and shouted, signaling to attract the attention of their own tanks.
It is true that some Mirage Army tanks discovered the Tang Army tanks over there. They began to turn around and aimed their turrets at targets in the distance.
At this time, the 59 main battle tank fired another shell. After a flash of fire, another Mirage heavy tank was penetrated and paralyzed in place, and then the ammunition exploded.
The explosion was so violent that a steel plate of the turret even broke from the welding joint, and the whole piece flew into the air, and then hit the body of another tank.
"Boom!" A Mirage tank equipped with only a 76mm caliber tank gun opened fire at the target, but the shells it fired did not hit the Tang Army's 59 tank.
The tank sighting system of the Mirage Army was really poor, and the accuracy of the artillery was very average, so the first shell failed to threaten the 59 tank that had already fired two shots.
Another Mirage Army heavy tank also aimed its barrel at the Tang Army tank, and then it also fired a shell.
The initial speed of the shell fired by this 90 mm caliber artillery was not very fast. After hitting the Tang Army's tank turret, the shell was bounced into the sky.
Immediately afterwards, the third Mirage tank fired a shell at the 59. The shell hit the ground in advance, bounced on the soil, flew over the low turret of the 59 tank, and landed somewhere unknown.
At this time, the 59 tank fired a shell again, and the shell accurately hit the turret of the Mirage heavy tank that had just fired a shot, leaving a hole in it.
At this distance, even though it hit the shield with the thickest armor of the Mirage tank, the 105 armor-piercing projectile easily penetrated the target and killed everyone inside.
The heavy tank that was hit burst into flames on the spot, and soon the shells inside also exploded, killing many surrounding Mirage soldiers.
At this moment, the second tank of the Tang Army came out of the middle of Leping Village. It rolled over a rough road, bypassed a huge crater, and then aimed its main gun at the attacking Mirage army.
Then it also fired a shot. One shot turned a Mirage light tank into scrap metal. The Mirage Army began to collapse, the tanks covering the infantry began to retreat, and the Mirage Army infantry following these tanks also began to retreat backwards.
Seeing a 59 tank drive past him, Xiang Ziyu raised his arms and cheered. They finally received support from the ground, which meant that they were finally safe behind them.
Previously, they were fighting alone deep behind enemy lines, but now they finally have the support of friendly forces behind them, or in other words, around them.
"Well done! Welcome!" Xiang Ziyu shouted loudly at the tank, as if venting his previously suppressed emotions.
I don’t know if it was telepathy or not, but a 59 main battle tank stopped next to him. The commander opened the hatch, stuck his head out and shouted to him: "Brother! We are not too late, are we?" "
“No!” Xiang Ziyu responded with a smile: “We thought you were going to spend the night on the beach!”
"Hahaha!" the commander laughed boldly: "We are late! We have made you suffer! But leave the rest to us!"
"No problem! I leave it to you!" Xiang Ziyu didn't show off and immediately pushed everything to the tanks of the 9th Army.
Giving a thumbs up to Xiang Ziyu, the tank commander got back into the tank and closed the hatch. The tracks of the 59 tank continued to roll up, and the heavy body moved forward again.
