Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In this time and space of 1918, although Matsuki Naoaki, an honors student who graduated from the 19th class of the University of Mainland China, is 42 years old, in front of the two major general brigade commanders Isomura and Morioka, who are 47 and 49 years old, he can only be regarded as a top student in any case.  Junior, although he is a junior, this guy is from Yamaguchi County, Changshu Province. Besides, he is now commanding a cavalry regiment that earned some respect for the Japanese Army in the Battle of Ufa. How could this guy be so easily wiped out by the infantry?  Stand alone?

    Besides, Naoki Matsuki's 12th Cavalry Regiment followed Itagaki in Sun Liangcheng's Great Roundabout on the Southern Front. It was a lot of hard work sleeping in the open and cutting through thorns along the way. Among the cavalry regiments of the entire Japanese Third Army,  Colonel Naoki Matsuki's cavalry regiment is the only Japanese armored brigade that has been equipped with Chinese fd17ii wheeled armored vehicles.

    So this guy is very confident. Besides, in addition to his own wheeled armored vehicle brigade, isn't there also an entire Chinese armored regiment forming the South Road Rangers? What's there to be afraid of?  There is also air support from the coalition air force in the sky!

    "Songmu, that's too presumptuous! Is this how you talk to your seniors? How can you hold the line of defense with cavalry troops alone? Why do you need war horses if you just follow the example of dismounted troops? Don't think that equipping 40 wheeled armored vehicles is a big deal.  , let me tell you, the armor of the Chinese wheeled armored vehicle is only 9mm thick. If the German 20mm anti-aircraft cannon is used flatly and uses armor-piercing bullets, it will definitely make a hole when it hits it!  Helping the mob? That¡¯s the German army that wiped out the British, French and Russians!¡±

    The commander of the 24th Infantry Brigade, Nate Isomura, had to pretend to be a junior and junior in front of Morioka Morinari. Of course, he could not tolerate Naoaki Matsuki, a junior and junior, to challenge his authority, so he stared and yelled!

    "What's wrong with the German Army? Don't they all have two eyes and one nose? What's wrong with the 20mm anti-aircraft gun? The first thing that comes with that thing is a high-explosive bomb for flying, and the second one is that the anti-aircraft gun only has 20 rounds in a magazine.  The 12.7 caliber machine gun on the wheeled armored vehicle has a magazine capacity of 350 rounds. In a real fight, who is afraid of whom?" At this time, it was Zhao Yikuan, the colonel of the Chinese Armored Regiment, who stood up to support Cavalry Regiment Captain Matsuki Naoki, who spoke fluent Japanese.  .

    This Zhao Yikuan was directly affiliated with Tianjin and came from a wealthy family. He entered the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School in 1914 and graduated from the cavalry department in 1915. After joining the war, he first served as the major and battalion commander of the division headquarters reconnaissance battalion of Wu Peifu's third division.  During the battle in Outer Mongolia, he led the cavalry reconnaissance battalion and made a lot of achievements. Due to his merit, he was promoted to lieutenant colonel. During the battle to recover Lake Baikal, the regimental commander was injured. This guy led the troops to fight bravely and tenaciously. After the war, he was promoted to colonel.  Infantry regiment commander.

    Later, the three divisions under Wu Peifu's Third Army were re-equipped and formed three division-affiliated armored regiments. This man became the commander of the division-affiliated armored regiment of the 20th Division. He was also considered a talented general. Because he studied at the Japanese Military Academy  With his experience, this guy spoke Japanese very fluently, so when he saw that the infantry brigade commander dared to look down on the cavalry and armored troops, he couldn't help but jump out and speak to the Matsuki regiment commander.

    It should be said that Zhao Yikuan only became a colonel at the age of 32. Based on his qualifications, he was not the fastest-rising among the Chinese soldiers who participated in the war. The reason is that because of the Revolution of 1911, this guy interrupted his previous service as a non-commissioned officer in Japan.  The school courses were returned to China. Fortunately, the Japanese Army Military Academy retained the academic status of these Chinese students at that time and allowed them to return to school to complete their studies in the future. Among Colonel Zhao's classmates at the Military Academy at the same time, the most famous ones were Zhang Qun and Wang Boling.

    In the early years of the Republic of China, if you were a Japanese soldier, you would usually be awarded the title of second lieutenant after graduation from the Japanese sergeant school. Only very outstanding graduates could be awarded the title of lieutenant or captain. However, if you enter a mainland university, you may graduate with the title of captain or major.  To be promoted to a colonel, it is impossible without more than ten years of hard work and qualifications. Looking at China, returnees from overseas at that time were much more popular than non-commissioned officers who graduated from Baoding Military Academy. After graduating from the Japanese non-commissioned officer academy, you only need to explore where you went to become a military governor or  You can get a school-level officer in a blink of an eye, and after two years you might be promoted to a major general or brigade commander or something like that.

    In Wang Geng¡¯s previous life, he was just a cadet who graduated from West Point Military Academy. He returned to China and joined the Army Department. In the blink of an eye, when he participated in the Paris Peace Conference as a military attache, he had already mixed the rank of Army Colonel.

    "Sogar! Great! Zhao Sang, your armored regiment and my 12th Cavalry Regiment are united. We will have no problem completing the mission of attacking on the southern front alone. The 360-degree rotating turret on the Chinese wheeled armored tank  The 12.7mm large-caliber machine gun is a powerful weapon, and its armor-piercing capability even exceeds the opponent's 20mm anti-aircraft gun. What's so great about the German Army? Let's join hands and teach Ludendorff's troops a lesson!"

    The commander of the 12th Cavalry Regiment, Naoki Matsuki, looked at the commander of the Chinese Armored Regiment with great joy and raised his arms to cheer them on.

    ¡°Everyone, the Browning 12.7 large-caliber heavy machine gun equipped on the Chinese fd17ii wheeled armored combat vehicle.??It is definitely more powerful than the German 20mm anti-aircraft gun. In addition to the problem of firepower sustainability just mentioned, the Browning 12.7mm heavy machine gun can also be used as a high-level and horizontal machine gun. The types of ammunition we equip are also much richer, including ordinary ammunition and armor-piercing ammunition.  Incendiary bombs, armor-piercing bullets, tracer bullets, armor-piercing tracer bullets, armor-piercing incendiary tracer bullets, etc.¡±

    "The fd17ii wheeled armored combat vehicle is an anti-aircraft armored vehicle specially equipped with a 360-degree rotating bracket, with a Browning 12.7mm twin anti-aircraft machine gun installed on it. It can shoot ground-to-air and can effectively penetrate 2 to 5mm when dealing with aircraft.  Thick dura aluminum aircraft skin, 4~6mm thick armor steel plate.

    When firing at ground targets after laying flat, it can penetrate the 13mm thick medium carbon steel plate transport truck, the 15mm thick front armor plate or the 6 to 9mm thick side armor plate of the armored personnel carrier, and can destroy light defenses.  When shooting at sea targets, it can deal with small ships with 1 to 12mm thickness and medium carbon steel plates.  "The Chinese colonel is obviously very proud of his beloved armored fighting vehicle and Browning 12.7mm large-caliber heavy machine gun.

    The words of the commander of the armored regiment made all the federal generals in the conference room exclaim. They all shouted that their troops should also be equipped with armored vehicles and large-caliber heavy machine guns. Several Japanese generals had strange expressions, except for the cavalry commander.  Song Mu smiled brightly and nodded at Zhao Yikuan. The two infantry brigade commanders were obviously a little frustrated and didn't know what to say.

    Here Itagaki Seishiro couldn't help but smile and try to smooth things over, "Gentlemen, there will be bread, armored vehicles and large-caliber heavy machine guns. Of course, bullets on the battlefield don't have eyes. Although our army's weapons are stronger than those of the other side,  , but the German army should not be underestimated. Their artillery strength should be no worse than ours. No matter how thick the armor of the armored vehicle is, the sides are only 9mm, and the front rotating turret is only strengthened to 12mm. It is obviously impossible to withstand their heavy artillery! "
