    This also makes the artillery regiment of the 4th Ukrainian Infantry Division the fastest Ukrainian gunner in the entire 1st Army to learn artillery technology. Under the training of German instructors, they mastered the 75mm Krupp field gun and 105mm Krupp in less than 3 months.  Bo's light howitzer is operated in an orderly manner. After all, he is not a peasant with calloused hands. The operation and ruler, distance, and shooting angle calculations on the diagram are much more accurate than other Ukrainian artillery units. The only flaw is that  The physical fitness of ammunition handlers is slightly poorer. Fortunately, there are many Ukrainians. Yarmolenko's artillery regiment has half as many ammunition handlers as other troops. The purpose is to be able to rotate and transport artillery shells into the barrel

    "Andre Andropovichwhat's going on? Why did the 4th Division withdraw? That Japanese Okamoto brigade has been annihilated? How many machine guns and mortars were seized? Chinese machine guns and mortars equipped by the Japanese  Artillery fire is a good thing" The person who rushed in was Mihalik, the commander of the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division who came up for reinforcements.

    After the 2nd Infantry Division commanded by Taras Tasimovich Michalik was defeated by the Chinese armored forces yesterday in the forest area on the upper reaches of the Kharkov River, the actual losses totaled the loss of the artillery regiment's artillery and the main force.  The main forces of the 4th Regiment, the division-directed team and the 5th and 6th Regiments finally withdrew without any danger

    It should be said that Mihalik's 2nd Division originally belonged to the group that lost the battle and abandoned its armor, but this guy also had his own plans, especially at noon today, his troops were blocked between the 3rd Division and the 4th Division.  After being attacked by a Japanese infantry brigade this guy suddenly realized that it turned out that the 2nd Division was defeated yesterday because it was an entire Chinese armored battalion on the opposite side. Today, Japanese infantry came up to attack, which was completely different Japan  Although the marksmanship of the Sanba Gai in human hands is good, the continuity and density of firepower are incomparable to that of the Chinese armored forces.

    In the time and space of 1918, in the Japanese Third Army and the First Army of the Allied Forces on the Eastern Front, a standard Japanese infantry squadron of 225 men and 19 men included: a 19-man squadron headquarters: squadron leader, executive officer, 3 sergeants,  4 health workers, officer's orderlies, buglers, 8 correspondents, 3 teams of 75 people. Each of these 75-man infantry teams has a machine gun group, two Chinese-made 762 Browning squad light machine guns,  One mortar group, two Chinese-made 60mm caliber mortars and three rifle groups.  Each light machine gun is staffed by four commanders, shooters, and two assistant shooters carrying ammunition, each mortar is staffed by two people, and each rifle team is staffed by 21 people.

    In other words, a Japanese squadron of 244 people is only equipped with 6 Browning squad machine guns and 6 M60 light infantry mortars, while the Chinese armored force has an armored infantry company that dismounts its vehicles and has one armored vehicle at its company headquarters.  There are three remaining platoons of combat vehicles and company headquarters squads. Each platoon has three wheeled armored combat vehicles, each carrying an infantry squad of 10 people. In addition, the fd17ii wheeled armored combat vehicle crew has four members, one for the driver and one for the co-pilot.  One, one shooter each for the vehicle-mounted M2 Browning large-caliber heavy machine gun.  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 other words, the machine gun firepower of a Chinese armored infantry company with only vehicle-mounted infantry is 9 Browning squad machine guns plus 6 M60 mortars. This does not include the sharp firepower of ten vehicles equipped with M2 Browning large-caliber heavy machine guns.  What's more, Mihalik's 4th Regiment, the main force of the 2nd Division, faced the weapons and firepower of an entire Chinese armored battalion yesterday.

    Therefore, when Michalik's two main regiments gritted their teeth and stood in formation in the middle, waiting to withstand the attack of a Japanese infantry brigade, it was much easier than yesterday when they were frightened and fighting with the Chinese armored forces. There were no air strikes from the coalition air force in the sky.  Threat, the artillery fire of the Japanese Muto Brigade on the ground was no more than a crackling match with the artillery of the 4th Yarmolenko Infantry Division. Mihalik was particularly regretful about this If his artillery regiment had not been destroyed by a coalition air strike yesterday,  If not, the one who plays the leading role today may not be Yarmolenko, a former middle school principal, but himself, the proven old guerrilla captain!

    "Didn't you hear the sound of artillery? The main reinforcements of the Japanese are coming My troops suffered heavy losses and must leave the battlefield!" Yarmolenko, commander of the 4th Division, waved his hand angrily.

    "The main force of the Japanese? Where did it come from?"?How many troops?  Are there any Chinese armored forces?  "Although Michalik heard the sound of the cannon, he didn't expect that Yarmolenko would retreat with a grimace on his face. This guy originally wanted to get a share of the credit for annihilating the Japanese Okamoto Brigade.  He led the team and ignored the 3rd Division's request for reinforcements, but moved south to reinforce the 4th Infantry Division.

    "The enemy's situation is unknown, but at least one battalion of 12 75mm field guns from the opponent's long-range artillery is bombarding my position. The Japanese Okamoto brigade has been completely annihilated by my division, but it was too late to clean up the battlefield and capture it Taras Tower  Simovich, you came at the right time. My troops need time to gather and rest. The 2nd Division can take over my position first! The Japanese reinforcements are still far away from here. Where are the Chinese armored forces in the swamp forest  ¡­¡±

    The commander of the 4th Division, Yarmolenko, rolled his eyes and coaxed and tried to get the two regiments of Michalik's 2nd Division to come up to take over his division's defense line. Otherwise, he was really worried that reinforcements would come when the opponent's artillery fire stopped.  The ground troops came to kill The 4th Division fought several fierce battles today and finally fell short under the intensive damage from the opponent's long-range artillery fire. Although it was difficult to swallow this breath, it really had to be swallowed first.
