    July 3o, 1918, 11:2o, Kharkiv Riverside Forest, fifteen kilometers northeast of Kharkiv

    "Battal Commander, Battalion Commander, there are a large number of Ukrainian National Army infantry on both sides of the southern road. It seems that at least one regiment of troops is rushing toward our position along the road in darkness!" Gu Wushao, the staff officer of the 3rd Battalion, said at the battalion commander  Major Li Shang shouted next to him, with a hint of panic in his voice.  ¡¾Absolute power¡¿

    Not every officer and soldier of the armored regiment is aware of the news that the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division is not far south of the 1st Division. At this moment, Li Shang's 1st Company of the 3rd Battalion is fighting on the position of the 3rd Regiment of the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division.  Suddenly, a large number of Ukrainian ground troops appeared from our flank and outflanked us. This made the battalion staff officer Gu Wushao, who led the battalion communications service team to monitor the right wing of our position, inevitably panic a little.  ",

    "Why are you panicking? Order the 1st Company to retreat. The three armored vehicles of the 1st Company and the platoon will go directly to the southwest road to intercept the opponent. The 2nd Platoon and 3rd Platoon will retreat to their own positions first. The battalion's 81mm mortar platoon under the roadbed on the west side of the road will  Fire across the board, the 1st company's six 60mm platoon mortars shifted their shooting targets and intercepted the enemy regiment outflanking from the southwest road! The 1st company's snipers were responsible for suppressing the position of the 3rd regiment of the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division, and dared to show their faces.  Cut them off for me!"

    Li Shang, the commander of the 3rd Armored Battalion, did not panic. He turned around and used a telescope to observe the movement of Ukrainian reinforcements about 1500 meters away in the southwest.  When Dayong led a company to attack the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division, the 2nd Infantry Division was hiding in the south. Why did they rush out to join in the fun when I beat the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division?  Could it be that we were hit hard by the air raid of our air force just now, and now the revenge is coming?" Look Beiyang 1917705

    Fu Zuoqi, attached to the 3rd Battalion here, said nervously, "Battalion Commander, would you like to ask for artillery support from the regimental artillery company? Through the telescope, I can see that the enemy on the other side is a whole regiment. We have to quickly capture the 2nd and 3rd companies from the enemy."  Pull back from the enemy's position!"

    Unexpectedly, the battalion commander Li Shang turned his head and glared, "What nonsense are you talking about? Our battalion beats another division. This is the time to pull up the banner and wear tiger skin to pretend to be a wolf with a big tail. Withdrawing the 1st company is already a last resort.  , do you think the Ukrainians are stupid if they retreat across the board? The enemy counterattacks with one battalion to block the attack of 4 regiments? At this time, not only can the 2nd and 3rd companies have to fight harder, the trumpets will be blown!  Let the 2nd and 3rd companies roll south along the occupied positions. Don¡¯t be reluctant to fight and rush south along the opponent¡¯s defense line. This way the Ukrainians will not be able to tell the truth from the truth!¡±

    Fu Zuoqi, attached to the 3rd Battalion, blushed when he heard this. He thought to himself that our battalion commander looks like a pretty boy with a fat head and a pink face. In a war, he is really a tiger general that even the king of heaven is not afraid of. Oh dear, let's use one battalion to beat 4 regiments at the same time.  The Ukrainian National Army, this war example is only feared by the ancients and the latecomers. This guy is not at ease at all, he said,

    "Battal Commander, are our 2nd and 3rd companies really not going to withdraw? Then we can always ask the regiment artillery company for reinforcements, right? We really have three heads and six arms. It is unrealistic to use an armored company to resist the attack of an opponent's regiment under this field fortification.  Ah! "The captain is obviously a cautious guy.

    "The 2nd and 3rd companies did not withdraw. They blew the trumpet and asked the company commanders of the 2 companies to lead their attacking infantry along the occupied positions to attack the enemy positions on the south side. Then they ordered all the snipers of the 2 companies to move east again.  With an arch of 200 meters, it takes over the firepower of wheeled armored vehicles and prepares to suppress the enemy's counterattack.

    The 2nd and 3rd companies each left 4 wheeled armored vehicles to continue to maintain the company's face-to-face firepower to accompany the suppression. The remaining 4 platoons of 12 armored vehicles moved north along the east side of the road and ordered the 1st platoon and 2nd platoon of the 4th armored company of the battalion reserve team.  The platoon spreads out and advances southward within 200 meters along the west side of the road. I want to deal with the infantry regiment killed by the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division under the nose of the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division!  "

    The commander of the 3rd Battalion, Major Li Shang, sounded both nervous and excited. The combat effectiveness of his 3rd Armored Battalion was definitely not inferior to Tao Dayong's 1st Armored Battalion. The 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Armored Companies had a total of 4o FD17IIs.  Wheeled armored fighting vehicles, 6 FJ18 Humvee reconnaissance/command vehicles, 2 Dodge 1 and a half ton military trucks, and a mortar platoon equipped with 8 81mm battalion mortars are directly under the battalion headquarters.

    At this time, the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Armored Companies were respectively engaged in the attack on the frontal defense line of the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division, and the 4th Armored Company was the only reserve team in Li Shang's hands. Of course, Li Shang's unused troops  , and the regiment leader Lu Huanyan strengthened and gave him a regiment-affiliated anti-tank/anti-aircraft gun company equipped with 6 m191837aa anti-aircraft guns.

    "Battal Commander, call the regimental commander!" Battalion Staff Officer Gu Wushao reported while covering the phone with a hint of flush on his face. Here Li Shang heard the words and quickly walked over and took the call. The voice of the regimental commander Lu Huanyan came from the receiver,  "Li Shang? The latest enemy situation report from the Hawkeye early warning aircraft. Yes, yes, I know you have also discovered it. The 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division dispatched an infantry regiment and rushed towards the flank of your battalion along the forest road. How about it?  , how are you going to fight? You need to?Should I send Tao Dayong's 1st Battalion up to deal with the Ukrainian idiots?  Do you need me to come over personally to give instructions?  "

    Leader Lu Huanyan¡¯s voice on the phone was bold and confident, and his tone sounded so exciting that the face of Li Shangji, the commander of the 3rd Battalion on the other end of the phone, was so red that blood dripped from his face. The guy shouted at the top of his lungs,

    "Captain, we agreed that Tao Dayong's 1st Battalion is the reserve team for this battle. My 3rd Battalion is fighting smoothly. If the forest terrain had not restricted the armored vehicles' lack of routes to approach the opponent's position, my 3rd Battalion would have defeated the opponent.  The divisions have all herded their sheep. At this moment, a regiment from the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division from the south is coming. They are coming along the road and on both sides. The mobility of armored vehicles is almost unaffected in that place. Just watch, I am an armored battalion.  If we can't deal with the enemy's Ukrainian puppet infantry regiment carrying Mauser 98 rifles, our 3rd Battalion is still an indestructible elite armored force of the Chinese participating armies!"

    "Okay! What I want is your spirit. We have an absolute advantage in terms of ground firepower. The Ukrainian infantry regiment only has 12 companies. The opponent's MG heavy machine guns and mortars are only equipped with one for each company. You  The battalion's 8 81mm mortars and 24 60mm mortars must be properly dispatched and used. The regiment's heavy company has already transported 1 truck of mortars and machine guns to you. In this battle, I will see if your 3rd battalion is  It¡¯s not about using firepower! The 1st Infantry Division is overwhelmed now. You must make good use of snipers to suppress the opponent¡¯s position! The main force of the battalion should not stay too long in the 1st Infantry Division¡¯s position and pay attention to artillery!¡±
