"boom!"

The power of the 75mm main gun of the Black Panther Tank is indeed satisfactory. Even though it is 2,000 meters apart, the high-speed tungsten alloy armor-piercing shells still penetrate the front face of the T-28/1935 tank, and it also exploded the internal shells and exploded the tank into a pile of parts. Su Yi put down the telescope in his hand and let out a sigh of relief. It was not because of the battlefield performance of the Black Panther Tank, but found that the Soviet tank cluster was fighting oil-adding tactics. Although there were only 67 Black Panther tanks in his hand, there were not less than 200 Soviet T-28s and Su-76s that could be fought against. With the determination of one against three, he still had them.

Moreover, he has more than one Black Panther Tank Battalion, and an armored grenade regiment equipped with tracked armored vehicles and 105mm recoilless guns. This recoilless gun was specially developed for anti-tanks. The total gun weighs 706 kilograms and cannot be carried by infantry. It can only be installed on tracked armored vehicles or military off-road vehicles. When using armor-piercing shells, the initial velocity of this recoilless gun can reach 503 meters per second, which is no less than the 105mm howitzer currently equipped by Chinese infantry! Therefore, the armor-piercing performance is quite superior, and it can easily penetrate 150mm homogeneous steel plates at a distance of 1,000 meters. Now it is used in conjunction with the Black Panther tank to form an anti-tank firepower system that cooperates with distance and near.

Of course, if the Soviet army's communications remain unobstructed, the Soviet artillery would pour shells into the 105mm recoil-free gun position of the Chinese army under the guidance of artillery observers. Those tracked armored vehicles without top armor may be difficult to withstand the dense shell coverage. However, now, the Soviet artillery group does not know where to shoot artillery, and will not pose any threat to the Chinese army's anti-tank firepower points.

With the sound of tight guns, the Soviet tanks were destroyed one by one. The way they charged was full of burning steel wreckage and burnt soldiers' corpses. However, Balanov and Konev ignored this scene and kept firing signal flares to urge the tank cluster to assault. Because they knew that as the battle time extended, the Chinese armored cluster would win more time to adjust the formation. Once they transformed the horizontal array that could maximize the firepower into a square or wedge array for assault, they could shatter the messy Soviet tank cluster with the outstanding performance of Cheetah Tank Annihilation and Black Panther tanks!

"No, no, no. Don't withdraw the tank-annihilation formation now." Just as more than 100,000 soldiers of the Sino-Soviet army launched a fierce battle around Losino-Petrovsky, Liao Lei and Wu Shi expressed some disagreements in the headquarters of the Second Armored Army of the Chinese Army. Liao Lei and Wu Shi expressed some differences. Liao Lei pointed to the two armies' exchange line just marked on the map and said: "The enemy's tank cluster is already in chaos, and we don't need to press all the armored troops up. We only need to add the 7th Armored Army to the Black Panther Tank Battalion on the left wing to form a wedge formation to assault east from the 22nd Army's reserve position. In this way, we can start to counterattack in an hour. Moreover, because the frontal tank-annihilation formation does not move, it can attract the enemy's attention and cover the 7th Armored Army's counterattack."

"Can an armored army work? However, more than 330 tanks and tank kills, plus a Black Panther Tank Battalion, there are only more than 400 vehicles. The Soviets have nearly 2,000 tanks and tank kills!" Wu Shi calculated with his fingers, but he still felt that it was not reliable. If the Chinese armored army now includes self-propelled artillery, there are quite a lot of armored combat vehicles, but now they are going to fight tank battles. Self-propelled artillery is not very useful, and they have to rely on tanks, and tank annihilation to conquer the world. This seems to be a bit lacking in strength.

"Soldiers are very fast. Now we must join the reserve team's counterattack as soon as possible. If it is too late, the Russians may retreat!" Liao Lei is now an expert in armored soldiers who have been in the battlefield. He can't understand the Soviet tank troops very well. He said in a stressful tone: "The Russians' tank cluster is obviously in chaos, and they don't even have a basic assault formation, so they attack in a mess. This is our opportunity to counterattack. If they have time to adjust, this battle will be difficult to fight. So I still recommend that you join the 7th Panther Army to fight a counterattack immediately, and you don't even have to wait for the Black Panther Tank Battalion on the right wing to be in place. This person can start the attack in 45 minutes."

"45 minutes?" Wu Shi was indeed a little moved: "Can it really be so fast? Also, can Su Yi hold on for 45 minutes? Should he invest in a camp of cheetahs to support him?"

"No need!" Liao Lei waved his hand and said, "Now it is fast to fight slowly. Judging from the chaos of the Russians, their communication must be a problem... The Russian tanks attacking Su Yi have obviously become oil-added tactics, and even a few cannot break through Su Yi's defense line. If they want to reorganize their formation, it is impossible to do so without an hour."

"Okay, just give the 7th Panzer Army an hour, and in one hour, let the Tanzan-Annihilation formation be withdrawn and re-organized." Wu Shi gave the order decisively.

At the same time, Balanov and Konev began to feel restless. From the telescopes in their hands, they saw that the Soviet tanks were burning and burning around the battlefield of Losino-Petrovsky, and they attacked the artillery. Although the Soviet armored cluster had basically broken through the first line of defense of an infantry army in the Chinese army, the attack on the flanks of the Chinese armored cluster was severely frustrated. A thin horizontal formation composed of only sixty or seventy black panther tanks had become an insurmountable natural barrier. The Soviet tank cluster could not even rush in front of them, and was smashed into a pile of scrap iron by accurate and ruthless firepower.

"This won't work!" Balanov put down the telescope in his hand and took a breath: "We must reorganize the formation and put it into the reserve team, otherwise we will not be able to break through even if we wipe out more than a thousand tanks!"

"But it takes at least one formation, uh, at least two hours!" Konev said with some concern: "I'm afraid there is not so much time! Vasilevsky could not last until 2 hours, and the German planes in the air would not watch us regroup..."

"What should I do? Should I order the tank troops to retreat?"

"Do directly into the reserve team!" Balanov gritted his teeth and turned his head to look at Konev: "Comrade Konev, how many tanks can be activated now?"

"There are less than 500 vehicles." Konev replied. The integrity rate of Soviet tanks has never been high, and they do not equip the armored troops with reserve tanks like China, the United States and Germany to timely replenish combat losses. Therefore, although the current Soviet tank cluster still has 35600 tanks on the books, the maximum number of which can be activated is 278800. Now more than 2100 vehicles have been on the battlefield, and less than 500 are reserve troops.

"But there are no t-28/1935 tanks, all su-76 and t-26, I'm afraid..." Konev paused, took a breath and said, "Comrade Commander, please let me drive the tank myself!"

Balanov nodded, patted Konev's shoulder, and whispered: "Put all the reserves in... Insert from the northern line of the Losino-Petrovsky battlefield, assault the second line of defense of the Chinese infantry, break it and turn back south, sweep the rear of their armored cluster."

"Break through their infantry defense?" Konev was stunned.

Balanov sighed with a wry smile: "This is the only opportunity... Judging from the current situation on the battlefield, there is no hope of attacking the flanks of the Chinese armored cluster, because we have lost the initiative. The Chinese army commander must be mobilizing the reserve team to fill the right wing of their armored cluster. As long as we invest a few more battalions of black panthers or cheetahs, we have no hope. So we can only break through their infantry and then make a big circumvention, which may shake the Chinese army on its entire line."

"Okay, that's it!" Konev nodded. Balanov's analysis was good. He didn't succeed in the attack just now, and the flanks of the Chinese armored cluster must have been strengthened. Look at the combat effectiveness of their Black Panther tanks. If there were two more battalions, even if he invested 500 su-76s, it would be useless. It would be better to attack their infantry. Even if he couldn't win, he could kill a few more Chinese people, right?

Just as the armored troops of both sides were adjusting and putting them into the reserve team, Wei Lihuang was also reorganizing his 22nd Army. This army suffered a lot in the fierce battle with the Soviet tank troops just now. Even Wei Lihuang himself was slightly injured, one of his arms was discounted, and now he was wrapped in gauze and wooden boards. However, he was not in the mood to consider his injuries, because the defense line of the 22nd Army was still very tight.

"We cannot lose the reserve position again! If we lose it, we will be a sinner! We still have three infantry divisions and an armored cavalry division in our hands, with a total of more than 50,000 brothers. Even if we are completely dead, we are not allowed to take a step back. Do you know if you know?" Wei Lihuang glanced at the commanders under his command and shouted loudly.

His military headquarters is now behind the original reserve position, and in the future there is the headquarters of the 7th Army of the Chinese Army, the artillery group, and the baggage unit.
