    Before departure, Colonel Lu Huanyan, the commander of the regiment, specifically told Li Shang that this time the 3rd Armored Battalion would be assigned to the Mutoh Brigade for combat. This was different from the situation yesterday when Lu Huanyan led two armored battalions to cooperate with the 18th Infantry Regiment of Masato Emiratesaki.  There is a big difference. As a young elite among Japanese generals, Muto has a lot of skills in both leading troops and commanding on the battlefield. Li Shang's 3rd Armored Battalion must position itself in the supporting role, both to complete Muto's  The assigned combat missions, but he cannot be too aggressive to steal the limelight from Muto and the 23rd Infantry Brigade. Li Shang has to grasp all the appropriate measures

    Major Li Shang, the commander of the 3rd Armored Battalion, who among the three main armored battalion commanders under Lu Huanyan was considered capable of fighting tough and skillful battles, he naturally understood Lu Huanyan¡¯s concern. In the commander¡¯s words  The important point is not to rely on the strong combat effectiveness of the armored forces to suppress Muto and the 23rd Infantry Brigade's opportunity to perform. In this way, even if the fight is good, there will be gaps in the coordination and unity of the two forces.  Muto Nobuyoshi is a master who even Kikuchi and Hata Shunroku don't take seriously, and he is definitely not comparable to the captain of the captain Masago Eizaki.  most

    Major Li Shang, commander of the 3rd Armored Battalion, was originally from Zhejiang, and his family was a comprador capitalist in Shanghai. However, this oily and naughty young man could not be his rich second generation in Shanghai, but he went all the way to Baoding.  He studied artillery at the military academy and was supposed to graduate in the 9th class this fall. However, thanks to Song Hanzhang, he dropped out half a year early and joined the army. His classmates at the Baoding Military Academy had not yet graduated and were participating in the war.  He has been working hard in the army for more than half a year and has been rapidly promoted from second lieutenant platoon leader, lieutenant company commander, and captain company commander. After the Battle of Ufa, he was promoted to the battalion commander of the 3rd Armored Battalion of Lu Huanyan Regiment.  

    Li Shang's 3rd Armored Battalion has 4 armored companies, 40 Chinese FD17II wheeled armored fighting vehicles, 6 Chinese FJ18 Humvee reconnaissance and command vehicles, and an 8-door M81 battalion equipped with a Dodge 1-ton and a half military truck.  Belonging to the mortar platoon, the regiment leader Lu Huanyan also specially strengthened Li Shang's jurisdiction with two M191837aa anti-aircraft anti-tank guns, which were also towed by Dodge one-and-a-half-ton trucks.

    The organization of the armored company under the 3rd Lishang Armored Battalion is basically the same as that of the Chinese armored forces in other coalition forces. According to the conventional organization of the Chinese armored regiment, one armored company has a company headquarters, one armored fighting vehicle and a company headquarters squad.  There are three platoons left, each with 3 wheeled armored fighting vehicles, each carrying an infantry squad of 10 people. In addition, the fd17ii wheeled armored fighting vehicle crew has 4 members, one driver and one co-driver, and the vehicle carries M2 Brown  Ning has one large-caliber heavy machine gun shooter each.  When dismounting for combat, the 10-man infantry squad carried is used as infantry.

    The vehicle-mounted infantry squad of the Chinese armored forces is smaller than the 14-person general infantry squad of the coalition Chinese infantry mixed brigade. It is only an infantry squad of 10 people, because most of the four-person vehicle crews accompany the armored fighting vehicles.

    Such a vehicle-mounted infantry squad has one squad leader each, two snipers, and six soldiers. The whole squad is equipped with 7 short-barreled M1 Garand semi-automatic mounted rifles, 2 M1 Garand semi-automatic sniper rifles, and Browning M1911  10 automatic pistols and one m1917bra squad machine gun. The second squad of each platoon is additionally equipped with 2 Chinese-made 60mm platoon mortars. Each mortar has one shooter and one shooter. These four mortars  The primary and secondary shooters of the artillery fire are also equipped with m1 Garand semi-automatic mounted rifles. As for the m1911 Browning automatic pistol, as a self-defense weapon, it has already been equipped on every soldier of all field troops of the Chinese participating armies.

    In addition, each soldier is also equipped with 4 Chinese-made imitation British melon grenades as close-range firepower supplement. The vehicle-mounted infantry squad of the Chinese armored forces is not the main combat method of vehicle-mounted infantry due to dismounted combat.  After the vehicle-mounted infantry dismounts, they fight with the armored fighting vehicle. Therefore, the vehicle-mounted infantry of the armored company is not equipped with the m1918a3 Browning 7.62-caliber heavy machine gun at the platoon level, and the number of people who dismount and fight is 4 fewer than that of an ordinary infantry squad.

    Although it is an armored force, Li Shang's battalion is still equipped with 6 FJ18 Humvee reconnaissance and command vehicles. The Humvee equipped with the M2 Browning large-caliber machine gun is a sharp weapon that everyone loves in the Allied Forces. It is lightweight, convenient, and fast.  It has strong off-road performance and good concealment!

    Major Fu Zuoqi, attached to the 3rd Armored Battalion, commanded the 3rd Armored Company to serve as the retinue guard of the Muto Xinyi Brigade Headquarters, while Gu Shaowu, the battalion staff officer, followed the 4th Armored Company to press the logistics and supplies of the Muto Brigade.  Later, Li Shang commanded the 1st and 2nd armored companies to lead the entire Hedong roundabout force. After crossing the river from the pontoon bridge on the Kharkov River, the 1st company of the 3rd battalion, as the reconnaissance vanguard, was led by the company commander Captain Shi Qingshang.  Down the Kharkov Forest Road, we headed south quickly. Battalion Commander Li Shang followed closely with Baochun's 2nd Armored Company, Battalion M81 Mortar Platoon and M191837AA Anti-Aircraft Gun Anti-Tank Gun Platoon.

    The Kharkov River is a river in Eastern Ukraine. It is located in the Karkov Oblast. It was originally the left branch of the Lopan River. It originates from Belgorod in the Volga Federation. The total length of the river is 71 kilometers.  It covers an area of ??1,160 square kilometers, and the Lopan River is also a river that spans the Volga Federation and Ukraine, also originates from Belgorod Oblast, flows through the border between the two countries and enters the Karkov Oblast of Ukraine, finally converging with the Uda River in Kharkiv. The total length of the river is 93 kilometers and the drainage area is 2,000 square kilometers.

    The Uda River, also called the Yudi River, is also a river in Eastern Ukraine. It originates from Belgorod in the Volga Federation, flows through Ukraine, and finally flows into the Northern Donets River at Chuguyev.  It is 164 kilometers long and has a drainage area of ??3,890 square kilometers. It joins the Lopan River in Kharkiv, Ukraine's second largest city.

    Speaking of which, the three rivers that converge in Kharkiv all originate from the Belgorod region in Russia in the north, but the Uda River is also called the Northern Donets because it merges into the Northern Donets River.  The Lopan River in the west, the Uda River in the middle, and the Kharkiv River in the east rush from north to south, and finally converge in the middle city of Kharkiv. The Uda and Lopan rivers are in Kharkiv.  The rivers gathered in the west of Kharkov City first, and then flowed east together. They converged again in the east of Kharkov City with the Kharkov River coming from north to south, and then rushed to the southeast, and finally merged completely in Chuguyev.  Northern Donets River.
