    ,

    This caused the first-line positions of the three regiments of the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division to be turned upside down by the three armored companies of the coalition. Of course, the combined casualties of the three regiments exceeded 1200 people. Fortunately, the Ukrainian infantry in the south  The 2nd Division fell from the sky, and the commander of the coalition armored forces obviously believed that it was time to stop the attack on the 1st Infantry Division, so Li Shang's 3rd Armored Company and 2 platoons of the 2nd Armored Division moved from north to south.  During the attack, the three regiments of the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division were still passively defending, and had no intention of actually launching a counterattack with the reinforced infantry regiment of the 2nd Infantry Division to flank the coalition forces.  [guanm?officialdom-novel]",

    Of course, this is because Li Shang, the commander of the 3rd Battalion of the Chinese Armored Regiment, still retained a platoon of troops in front of the three regiments' front-facing positions. Together with the snipers of the entire battalion, he attacked the 2500-meter-wide front of the Ukrainian 1st Infantry Division's position.  Suppression is also inseparable. The brave men who dared to stick their heads out from the trenches of the 1st Infantry Division were either beaten to pieces by the M2 large-caliber heavy machine guns on the coalition armored fighting vehicles, or they were beaten into pieces by the bushes and could not be seen at all.  The coalition snipers at the location claimed lives with one and two shots!

    Counterattack?  Just kidding, wait until the division's artillery blasts away the opponent's armored vehicles. Otherwise, rushing out will mean dying in vain. This is the unanimous view of the frontline officers and soldiers of the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division.

    Li Shang, commander of the 3rd Armored Battalion of the coalition forces, took this opportunity to not only deploy the two platoons of the 1st Armored Company and the 4th Armored Company to an area of ??400 meters on each side of the road in the southern front position to establish a defense line, but also placed 2 platoons on both sides of the road.  The two platoons of the company and the 3rd company were gathered back, and a platoon left by the 4th company that was originally a reserve team was gathered together to become the new reserve team of the whole battalion, while the 1st, 2nd and 3rd armored companies were  Each platoon, with the cooperation of snipers, suppressed the possible counterattack intentions of the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division through fire suppression and sniper tactics.  ""look

    At this time, the regimental baggage team also brought medicine to supplement the consumption of the 3rd Armored Battalion. The battle was fought so smoothly. For Li Shang, the commander of the 3rd Armored Battalion, it was necessary to use 3 platoons and the entire battalion's snipers to keep an eye on the infantry.  The 1st Division concentrated the battalion's three armored companies and pushed them northward along the road and both sides. It was our best choice at this moment to push down and defeat the infantry regiment reinforced by the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division.  Beiyang 1917706

    Li Shanggang, the commander of the 3rd Armored Battalion, ordered 14 wheeled armored fighting vehicles on the southern front to advance slowly, preparing to use firepower to completely defeat the two infantry battalions in the suppressed river ditch and depression.  The sound of firing from 24 75mm Krupp field guns from the 2nd and 3rd Ukrainian Artillery Battalions came from kilometers away. The first wave of test-fired guns roared towards the coalition position. Of course, only  It can be said that the god of luck is still favoring Li Shang and his 3rd Armored Battalion who played brilliantly today.

    The 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division finally looked at the bottom of the box. The cannons fired by 24 Krupp field guns from the 2nd and 3rd Battalions of the Artillery landed under the guidance of mortar shooter Bogush of the 1st Battalion, 1st Regiment, 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division.  About 200 meters away from the front of the coalition armored vehicle array, there was a dense explosion. Of course, it failed!  However, the power of the roaring explosion of 24 75mm-caliber grenades cannot be underestimated. The secondary forests and large trees as thick as a bowl in the middle of the positions between the two sides have not been cleared by the M2 Browning large-caliber heavy machine gun installed on the coalition armored 36o turret.  , and now it was bombed into a mess, and a lot of wet mud was splashed on the ground, forming irregular pits in the landing area.

    For a moment, the armored forces of the Ukrainian National Army and the Allied Allied Forces, which were facing each other almost 1200 meters apart, were stunned by the sudden shelling of the Ukrainian artillery. Then, the Ukrainian infantrymen who were suppressed by the heavy machine gun fire of the coalition forces in the dry ditches and depressions were stunned.  The remaining ethnic officers and soldiers of the 2nd and 3rd battalions of the 1st Regiment of the 2nd Division burst into cheers, and the voice of "Ula" rang out loudly.

    On the side of the Allied Powers, the soldiers of the 3rd Armored Battalion took a breath of cold air. Damn it, thanks to the lack of eyesight of the Ukrainian artillery. If the opponent's first wave of shelling extended 200 meters further north,  Even if it does not directly hit 4 platoons and a total of 14 wheeled armored vehicles, the 65-kilogram gun fired by this German-made 75mm Krupp field gun will fall near the coalition wheeled armored vehicles and explode, causing a shock wave that may overturn the battle.  The vehicle, and the flying gun fragments may also penetrate the side armor of the coalition fd17ii wheeled armored combat vehicle. Of course, if it is directly hit by the cannon fired by the 75mm field gun, most of the wheeled armored vehicles with weak armor at this moment will be destroyed!

    At this time, the performance parameters of the field artillery equipment of the Ukrainian National Army artillery unit are as follows:

    75mm field gun

    Year of production or service

    Caliber:75mm

    Barrel length: 27 times the caliber

    High and low shooting range: 12 degrees ~ +185 degrees

    Horizontal shooting range: 7 degrees

    Marushige

    The beginning of medicine

    Weight:1og

    Maximum range: 76oom

    In fact, the Ukrainian National ArmyAt the beginning of the founding of the country, the main thing to guard against was Soviet Russia in the north. Therefore, whether it was the German 10th Army in Ukraine or the Ukrainian National Army itself, the division artillery regiment was equipped with either 75mm field guns, 1o5mm or 12omm.  Howitzers are mainly used to inflict surface damage on the opponent's ground troops and fortifications. In contrast, mountain artillery, which has better anti-tank armor target performance, is not equipped with artillery regiments. Now it faces the coalition's armored forces, although it is only lightly armored.  The fd17ii wheeled armored fighting vehicle lacks corresponding attack weapons.

    As far as the artillery in the hands of the Ukrainian National Army is concerned, if the 75mm Krupp field gun concentrates its firepower to bombard coalition armored vehicles in an area, it will pose a greater threat. Armored vehicles that are not directly hit may be attacked by shock waves and fragments.  If it penetrates the side or top armor, a direct hit will be destroyed in the explosion. For the 76cm light infantry mortar equipped with the Ukrainian infantry battalion company, even if it directly hits a coalition armored vehicle, it may not be able to cause a fatal blow.  , if it is just a near-miss explosion, its power is basically the same as that of a grenade. The fragment may damage the side armor of the coalition armored vehicle, but it may not penetrate it.

    Of course, if it is a shelling from a 1o5mm or 12omm Krupp howitzer, even if it only explodes nearby, the flying fragments and shock waves can still pose a fatal threat to the fd17ii wheeled armored fighting vehicle.
