    Lu Huanyan's words were obviously the result of careful consideration. At least in the eyes of Biafra and his chief of staff, including the officers at the armored regiment headquarters, what he said has become the image of Zhuge Liang without a goose feather fan in his hand.  , the so-called legacy plan, obviously many of these subordinates have not thought that far ahead Although the regiment chief of staff Ren Dadao has always been very concerned about the huge threat from the three 105mm light howitzer battalions of the German army.  .

    "Commander, the German artillery battalion has good shooting skills and can move positions quickly. The threat and damage cannot be underestimated Although we only have 75mm field guns, if we retreat without a fight, we cannot expect the front-line infantry to use mortars."  If you use the artillery to attack the opponent, it will not be able to reach it in terms of range or power!" Liu Yifei, commander of the 2nd Armored Battalion, boldly reminded the confident Lu Huanyan.  

    "Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you, Battalion Commander Liu. He knows that our artillery caliber, power and even quantity are inferior to those of the enemy, and there is also a big gap between the artillery skills of both sides. In this case, of course we cannot fight head-on with the opponent  In fact, the opponent's von Neuhaus has used the limited artillery of the German-Ukrainian coalition in Kharkiv in the past two days so admirably. Now that he has three 105mm light howitzer battalions as reinforcements, guess what?  How will he arrange and use this new force? "

    Lu Huanyan's words focused everyone's attention on the combat map hanging in the corner of the tent. Everyone stared at the Kharkov city defenses and the nearby 1/50,000 map for a long time. In the end, Colonel Bivlov stood aside.  He started speaking in half-baked Chinese.

    "Colonel, everyone, I think that the artillery of the German-Ukrainian coalition will either enter the city and deploy in the early and middle city areas near the east gate, or in the south city area near the southeast because the northern line is our main position, the bridge  The 24 150mm heavy field howitzers of this Colonel's Duli Field Heavy Artillery Regiment are extremely powerful. I believe that the German commander would not be willing to use his 36 105mm light howitzers to attack our main long-range artillery on the northern line  "

    Before Colonel Biflov finished speaking, Liu Yifei, the commander of the 2nd Battalion, nodded in agreement with Colonel Maozi. The guy stepped forward and pointed at the location of the coalition positions on the northern front and said, "Colonel Biflov said that's right.  In addition to the 24 heavy artillery pieces of Hashimoto Koji, the northern front also has 48 75mm mountain field artillery pieces from the Tanaka Field Artillery Regiment, as well as two 75mm field artillery battalions reinforced by the 15th Federal Infantry Division. Although the opponent is a 105mm light  Howitzers, but a mere 36 cannons must be seeking death if they compete with our main artillery force on the northern front"

    "What Colonel and Yi Fei said makes sense. I think the opponent's artillery position is likely to be located in the middle of the fortress near the south gate. This is outside the range of our heavy artillery on the northern front, but the opponent's artillery fire can even cover us to the north.  On the first circular defense line outside the occupied North City, if we shoot eastward, we are afraid that it will be able to reach our current position" After saying that, the regiment chief of staff, Ren Daodao, simply walked forward, grabbed a ruler and made some gestures.  The three-way intersection where everyone is located is the center of the circle, and an arc with a radius of 8 kilometers is drawn in the southwest direction

    The southwest semicircle drawn by Ren Avenue with red and blue pencils on the map covers the entire east city of Kharkov and even extends beyond the southeast corner of the old fortress city, extending from the left bank of Kharkov to the southern city wall.  A certain area was also circled Then Ren Dadao threw away the pencil and said mockingly,

    "Damn Captain, everyone, I didn't expect that the other side actually has so many rich places to set up artillery positions This battle is not easy to fight!"

    The leader of the regiment, Lu Huanyan, did not take his breath. He stepped forward and grabbed a ruler and red and blue pencils. Taking the southeast corner of the Old City Fortress as the center, he drew a semicircle to the north and east with a radius of 8 kilometers. This circle encompassed the northern city of Kharkiv.  The three-way intersections 2 kilometers away and 3 kilometers outside the east city are all circled. The current position of the Mutou Brigade in the southeast is firmly locked

    Everyone was silent at this moment The atmosphere in the tent seemed solemn In the end, Biflov spoke again in stiff Chinese, "Colonel Lu, I don't think it's a big deal. At dawn, the Allied Air Force  Kharkov is so big, no matter where it is deployed, it will be knocked to the ground by an air raid, and they are all served as side dishes" This guy also knew that the bombers of the Allied Air Force were dispatched at night.  The possibility of sex is extremely slim

    On the fourth day of the battle, it seemed that the outcome of the battle was not determined by the machine guns and cannons of the ground troops, but by the air force fighters in the sky. In fact, what the 2nd Fighter-Bomber Wing of the Allied Frontline Air Force was fully preparing for was not  The air attack on ground targets in Kharkov was to prepare for a large-scale counterattack by the German Air Force at any time This resulted in the Allied Air Force's reservation in the strength invested in today's ground air attack

    The first and most important task is to preserve one¡¯s vitality and grasp the effective forces to be ready to repel the German Air Force¡¯s counterattack. Otherwise, if you hurt the German machine guns and artillery that are bullying the ground today, you will lose your energy tomorrow.Continuing air battles in which large aircraft groups are dispatched in multiple batches will miss important events

    "Colonel is not so optimistic. The urgent task of the Allied Air Force is to seize the time to rest and prepare for the large-scale counterattack of the German Air Force tomorrow and the day after tomorrow I estimate that the additional motion and counterattack launched by the German ground forces this evening means that they know  Starting tomorrow, perhaps the air supremacy will return to their hands. Besides, even if the air forces of both sides are evenly matched, it will still be much better than the one-sided bombings of the past few days" Regiment Chief of Staff Ren Daodao tried to comfort people.  The commander of the 51st Federal Infantry Regiment poured cold water on the situation.

    "It's not a big deal. We can still win without the help of the aviation force. How can the Germans survive these three days without air supremacy? We have air supremacy to win the war, and we can still win the war without air supremacy. The German commander will not use 3  The 105mm light howitzer camp will challenge our main artillery on the northern front. Of course we cannot use the 75mm field artillery camp in hand to challenge the opponent's 105mm light howitzer"

    Lu Huanyan waved his hand, obviously trying to reverse the hesitant and solemn atmosphere in the tent. Then he pinched his waist with both hands, smiled and said loudly, "Although the 75mm field cannon beat the opponent's 105mm howitzer, it will be a loss, but the opponent's equipment will be beaten."  The infantry with machine guns and mortars suffered the mostI decided to establish a core artillery position, and the specific locationis here!"

    Your Excellency, the former enemy commander-in-chief of the second echelon of the coalition's eastern route, moved his finger to a location on the map that everyone ignored
