890 The swan song of the red tank 1

Hearing Liao Lei's tone, Wu Shi waved his hand and said, "Yannong, the Battle of Moscow is the last major battle we have fought in this world war, and we are fighting side by side with the Germans. We cannot lose to them in front of the whole world! We must show the prestige of our National Welfare, which has extraordinary significance for our future international status. In addition, if the black panther/cheetah in our hands is not ferocious, we will have no place to use our skills in the future!"

Liao Lei nodded. Although he was still reluctant to throw the expensive "leopard" into the assault, he would rather use cheap hunters to flood the Russians' positions. But he also knew that the hunters' armor seemed a bit thin on the battlefield at present. The Soviet army equipped with a large number of 76.2mm anti-tank guns can destroy the hunters' frontal protection at a long distance. The power of the 48-caliber 75mm cannon of the 48-caliber 75mm cannon is far inferior to the 71-caliber 88mm cannon of the cheetah. The latter has a decisive effect on the battlefield. Whether it is the Soviet armored combat vehicle or the reinforced concrete stronghold, they cannot withstand the 88mm tungsten alloy armor-piercing shells fired 1,000 meters away. This shell is enough to penetrate 193mm homogeneous steel plates at a distance of 1,000 meters! It is also close to 2 meters when converted into concrete fortifications!

"Yan Nong, how are you going to fight this battle?" Wu Shi naturally knew about the combat plan of the Second Armored Army for a long time, and now it is just the last confirmation.

"The main breakthrough direction is here, the areas of Losino-Petrovsky, Kupavna, and Electrot, located in the middle of the Soviet defense line. The terrain here is relatively open, which is conducive to the development and assault of armored troops. I plan to invest nearly 1,200 tanks, tank kills and 60,000 offensive troops here..." Liao Lei quickly pointed out the position of the main attack. Since the Chinese armored troops like to use tank destroyers, such as decisiveness and artillery perspective, in exchange for "special tanks" with great power artillery and high-intensity armor, in this era, the tactical formation of Chinese armored troops is a bit like the line infantry tactics from the 18th century to the first half of the 19th century.

The "Tank and Annihilation" are regarded as line infantry and placed in the middle of the entire body, and a thin horizontal formation will be drawn out in order to maximize the use of the large-caliber artillery of the Tank and Annihilation to give the opponent a fatal blow at a long distance. On the two wings of the Tank and Annihilation, tanks with strong mobility will be deployed, mainly C-type tanks and Black Panther tanks. They are like the cavalry use in the era of line infantry, covering the flanks and looking for opportunities to pursue the enemy. Once the Tank and Annihilation use cannons to knock down the opponent, it is the tank's turn to pursue and flee. This set of fighting styles can be said to be tried and tested on the Sino-Soviet battlefield, and every time they can defeat the Soviet opponents.

However, this tactic actually has obvious disadvantages. First of all, the requirements for terrain are high, and it is difficult to expand the formation without an open plain.

Secondly, the thin tank and annihilation team is actually very easy to break through - as long as the Soviet army can spend money and take out a sufficient number of tanks to rush forward. Once a breakthrough is formed, the entire horizontal formation can be cut into two or even several segments, and by then it will probably be a one-sided massacre!

Third, the Soviet tank troops can also adopt the "oblique combat formation" invented by Emperor Frederick the Great in history, and use a firepower of the tank and antagonist crossing team on the front, and the main force quickly penetrates to the flank of the Chinese army's horizontal formation. After breaking the Chinese tanks that were responsible for the cover mission, they will then attack the tank and antagonist crossing formation. The Chinese army's tanks, which have poor mobility and have too long formation, will definitely be a big loss and loss.

However, these tactics against the Chinese armored troops have long been designed by the Soviet genius staff, but have never been used on the battlefield. Because the performance of the T-28, which was put into combat at the beginning, was too poor. It was slow, weak firepower, thin armor, and large targets. It was just a moving iron coffin, and no tactics were easy to use. As for the light tanks like T-26, it was not an opponent of the C-type tanks that were responsible for flanking cover missions. Even the Chinese infantry equipped with 45mm anti-tank guns and anti-tank grenade launchers, could easily collect them.

After that, when the Soviet Union had relatively superior performance, the Soviet army was already at a disadvantage in the Eastern Front battlefield. Not only was the number of tanks far less than that of the Chinese army, but the Chinese army's aircraft began to play the role of tank killers, so they had no chance to use good tactics. After the Ukinsk defeated the counterattack, the Soviet tank troops simply disappeared from the Eastern Front battlefield. It was not until the Chinese army fought across the Ural Mountains and reached the city of Moscow that they once again encountered the Soviet Red Army with a large number of tank armored vehicles.

...

The eastern suburbs of Moscow, Balahashi City, and the Eastern Front Cluster Command of the Moscow Front.

"Here, Losino Petrovsky went to Electet, about 20 kilometers wide front, and it is expected that after dawn tomorrow, the Chinese will use tank clusters to attack there. They should have a 10 to 12 kilometers horizontal formation, invest 1,000 to 1,200 tanks or tanks, and almost 100 tanks or tanks per kilometer. Tanks are in the middle, tanks are on both wings... I can imagine their fighting style with my eyes closed."

The person who spoke was General Baranov, the old opponent of the Chinese National Defense Forces on the Central Asian battlefield. Now he was ordered to command a tank cluster deployed on the Eastern Front of Moscow. However, this tank cluster is not affiliated with the Eastern Front of Moscow, but is directly under the jurisdiction of the Moscow Front Army and is the general reserve team of the entire battle. However, now, the contact between this tank cluster and the entire Eastern Front Cluster and the Moscow Front Command has been basically interrupted. Because the location of the Moscow Front Command has just been bombed by a nuclear bomb, all communication equipment cannot be contacted. The communication soldiers have been sent out, but it may be difficult to establish a contact for a while. If Commander Yakir and others are still alive, the air raid shelter they are in must have been damaged, and they may be temporarily buried...

Therefore, the Eastern Front cluster and tank cluster can only fight without the command of the superior.
