    ,

    It was obvious from the receiver that the regiment leader Lu Huanyan was also in a high mood. Of course, his instructions were also detailed. At this time, the entire armored regiment's position was relying on the forest road in the forest beside the Kharkov River, with a long snake in front and back.  The formation is almost 5 kilometers away. At this moment, Li Shang's 3rd Armored Battalion's position is within 25 kilometers to the south, facing the 2nd Regiment of the 1st Infantry Division 8oo meters away on the east side of the road.  All of the 3rd Regiment's position, and part of the 1st Infantry Regiment's position on the north side.

    The command position of the regiment leader Lu Huanyan is opposite the 1st Infantry Regiment. The reserve teams around him are the 1st, 3rd and 4th companies of the 1st Armored Battalion who are resting. As for the 2nd Company of the 1st Armored Battalion, they are already conducting reconnaissance at this time.  Under the leadership of company commander Xue Juru, the company swam across the Kharkov River with arms, preparing to fight on the right bank of the Kharkov River and sneak attack the artillery position moved by the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division to the other side of the Kharkov River!  ",

    "Captain! Don't worry, we still have enough machine guns. Please bring me an extra truck of mortars and grenades. My battalion consumed a lot of grenades during the attack just now!" Li Shang then covered the microphone and whispered.  He said, "Commander, it is true that my 3rd Battalion can fight, but it does not have the artillery that can reach the enemy's artillery position. I have to trouble the regiment to find a way to deal with the threat of the Ukrainian artillery. Otherwise you  Just leave the regimental artillery company under my command?"

    The laughter of the regiment leader Lu Huanyan came from the receiver, and then Lu Huanyan laughed and cursed in the receiver, "If this continues, I think I will have to go down and be the battalion commander for you. You will command the whole regiment? You must pay attention to artillery protection."  , the regimental artillery company cannot give it to you for the time being, but the air strike by our air force just now has severely damaged the artillery position of the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division in the south. The latest telegram from the lead aircraft of the dh4 fighter-bomber brigade shows that at least two of the opponent's artillery units were eliminated.  The battalion's strength "" looks at

    But this is a gap now. It will take at least 45 minutes to an hour for the dh4 bomber group to go back to refuel and then fight back. You must be mentally prepared to be bombarded by the Ukrainians!  You must pay attention to concealment at all times. I will personally command the regiment's artillery company to counterattack and knock out any enemy artillery that dares to fire at you. Don't forget that I, the regiment commander, is a talented student who graduated from the Artillery Department of Baoding Military Academy!  If I command an artillery company to take control of others, I dare not say anything else. There is absolutely no problem in destroying an opponent's battalion!  ¡± Beiyang1917705

    Li Shang was overjoyed when he heard this and shouted into the phone, "With your words, what should I worry about? Commander, just take care of it. I will lead the 3rd Armored Battalion to prepare a beautiful battle and come out to show you."  ! When the Japanese infantry regiment comes up, the day lily will be cold!"

    "Okay! I'll give you and the 3rd Battalion credit for fighting this battle well. Tao Dayong's 1st Battalion is squealing and screaming now. Don't worry about the counterattack of the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division. Use snipers and some troops to contain it.  The other side, the first battalion will come up with reinforcements at any time if necessary, focus on eating up the infantry regiment extended by the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division!" the regiment leader Lu Huanyan gave the last instruction!

    The commander of the 3rd Battalion, Li Shang, was so enraged by his regimental commander's encouragement to mobilize and encourage the general that he almost dropped the phone and went straight to the turret of the wheeled armored vehicle to go into battle with the M2 heavy machine gun. This guy turned around and used it.  Looking through the telescope to the south, I saw that the Ukrainian attack 1200 meters away had been disrupted by the raindrops of 8 81mm battalion mortars and 6 platoon mortars.

    At this time, the 1st Company of the 3rd Battalion, which had withdrawn from the position of the 1st Division of the Ukrainian Infantry, was already lined up within 200 meters on the east side of the road. The hot rain sprayed by the M2 heavy machine gun destroyed any bushes that blocked the view within 1200 meters.  The leaves swept across the bushes and secondary forests are flying like snow flakes. The effective range of the M2 Browning large-caliber machine gun on the turret of the Chinese fd17ii wheeled armored vehicle is 1800 meters, and the maximum range is 7200 meters. At this moment, the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division is 1200 meters away.  The two attacking battalions of the regiment, located 300 meters on each side of the road, have been suppressed by the heavy machine gun fire from the armored vehicles here.

    July 30, 1918, 11:30, the position of the 1st Regiment of the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division in the forest on the Kharkiv River, fifteen kilometers northeast of Kharkiv

    "Commander! Hurry up and withdraw. The firepower of the armored forces of the Allied Powers is too fierce! Brothers, let alone charging up, it is God's blessing that we can withdraw. Order the withdrawal immediately?! Commander, otherwise our regiment will fight.  It¡¯s all gone!¡± Oleg Orelovich Husev, the chief of staff of the 1st regiment of the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division, shouted hoarsely to the regiment commander Artem Amyevich Kravitz beside him.

    "Where did the division artillery die? We agreed to provide fire support from at least two artillery battalions. Now we are blocked by 20 armored vehicles in front of a position that is almost a kilometer wide. How can we rush over without artillery support?! Call us quickly!  Divisional artillery support!" Kravitz, commander of the 1st Regiment of the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division, turned to his chief of staff in a hurry.

    In the telescope, the 2nd Infantry Battalion on the right side of the road has suffered more than half of its casualties, and the rest was suppressed in a depression by the heavy machine gun fire from the opponent's domineering wheeled armored tank 1200 meters away.Riffa raised his head, and the 3rd Infantry Battalion, which was in charge of the attack on the left side of the forest road, was 200 meters farther than the 2nd Battalion on the right side of the road, but then it also encountered a dense attack of 6 wheeled armored vehicles from the other side.  Machine gun fire and suppression, if a dry ditch as a temporary bunker had not saved the lives of the remaining three companies of the entire battalion, I am afraid that their fate would have been worse than that of the 2nd Battalion on the right.

    The bushes on both sides of the road in the middle of the positions of both sides, in addition to partially blocking the line of sight, could not block any shot fired by the coalition's M2 large-caliber heavy machine gun. At the same time, the mortars from behind the Allied coalition positions  On the artillery position, strings of mortars accurately bombarded and removed the mgo8 heavy machine gun fire points and 76ccbsp on the positions of the 2nd and 3rd Ukrainian Infantry Battalions; Comparing the machine gun firepower of the two sides, the Ukrainian National Army's 2  The four companies of the infantry battalion are equipped with a total of 8 mgo8 heavy machine guns and 8 Mende 76cm infantry mortars. On the field position of the Allied Allied Forces 1200 meters away to the north, on one side are 2 of the 4th Company of the 3rd Battalion of Armored Infantry.  A platoon of six wheeled armored combat vehicles were lined up 5o meters apart, spraying flames.

    On the east side of the road, two platoons and six wheeled armored vehicles of the 1st Company of the 3rd Armored Battalion, which had withdrawn from the position of the 3rd Regiment of the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division, were spraying heavy machine gun fire on the battlefield. Behind them, 50 meters away on the west side of the road  Under the side roadbed, there are 8 81mm battalion mortar positions that are under continuous bombardment. A little further north, the battalion commander Li Shang has gathered 24 60mm caliber platoon mortar positions that are firing artillery.  .
