Start as a young leader, grow bigger and stronger, and create more glory

"England is on the first day, and my Xu family army is on the fifteenth. They dare to play a trick on me, so why should I help them! Besides, England is an ally of the Tang Dynasty, and our Xu family army has not joined the allied forces!"

Xu Le waved his hand nonchalantly and gave his own high-sounding "reason".

He is a very vengeful person. If Wei Wei'er had not come to destroy the treaty, he would definitely have carried out Fang Yue's original plan.

But now, sorry, you are you and I am me! Even if it will cause some trouble to the future operations of the Xu family army, I will not help you!

Xu Le even hoped that the Japanese would fight more fiercely, so as to drive the British and Indian troops out of India, and then Xu's army would take back the territory from the Japanese.

At that time, it will not be up to you, England, to agree to the lease or not, because the territory I conquer will be mine.

He was not worried at all that the Japanese and German-Italian coalition forces would join forces in the Middle East!

Because Xu's army was guarding Myanmar and blocking land transportation.

Wait until the Central Fleet reaches the Bay of Bengal and controls the connection between the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. Then your meeting will naturally be meaningless!

Seeing Fang Yue's excitement, Wei Li couldn't help but joked, "What's wrong with our General Fang? The war has just begun, and you're so nervous!"

Xu Le also followed Wei Li's words and said, "General Fang, don't worry. With General Wei here, the victory of this battle is destined to fall to us!"

Fang Yue shook his head. "I am worried about the Japanese Indian Army. They can obviously surround us from three sides with Mandalay, Lashio and Indo! But they gave up Indo and attacked India! What on earth are they thinking?"

Wei Li couldn't help but laugh out loud: "General Fang, you've filtered it! Our Xu's army is not as mysterious as it was a year ago, or two years ago! After so many disastrous defeats, the Japs must have figured out our approximate firepower.

It is good to surround them from multiple sides, but it also disperses their combat power."

Xu Le nodded and continued: "Yes, although England is not kind. But once the Indian army turns its guns to attack western Myanmar, Weiweier will definitely seize this great opportunity and make trouble behind it!

At that time, it would not be the Indian Front that attacked western Myanmar, but our 3rd Mechanized Infantry Division and the British Indian Army that surrounded the Indian Front!

I guess the devils knew that we were having friction with England, so they were smart and simply ignored the cause and launched a full-scale attack on India with 20 Indian troops!"

Wei Li chuckled again: "Hahaha, this little devil knows the Marshal too well. He knows that we will not help the British and Indian Army!"

Fang Yue suddenly realized: "That's the best. Oh, by the way, Commander Liu just sent me the latest battle report."

Xu Le took the paper from Fang Yue and said after a moment: "As expected, the Japanese have replaced their tanks with new ones, which are much more powerful than the previous Type 1 medium tanks. The st Armored Regiment seized one and has already transported it here. Let's go take a look together!"

Half an hour later, Xu Le, Fang Yue, Wei Li and Guo Diet arrived at "Sanwen", where a tank with a frontal piercing was parked, with the aunt flag printed on the side of the turret.

"Xu Da, go check it out and find out the approximate data!"

For an all-round soldier like Xu Da, it is very easy to understand the performance of a weapon.

Xu Da and another guard came forward with measuring tapes and began to take various measurements of the Japanese tanks.

"nice!"

Wei Li pointed at the tank gun with surprise and said, "The main gun of the Japanese Type 47 medium tank is a 75mm short-barreled gun with low penetration and insufficient damage! This tank gun should be mm, and the caliber has increased a lot. It is also a bit bigger, I am afraid it has really reached the indicators of a medium tank!"

As we all know, although the Type 15 Medium Tank was defined as a medium tank by the Japanese, its firepower was seriously insufficient and its total weight was only tons, which was at the level of light tanks in Western countries.

The Japanese Type 7 light tank weighs just over tons and is considered a reconnaissance armored vehicle at most in the West. It has now been basically eliminated.

But despite this, not to mention the Type 4 light tank, even the -ton Type cavalry tank would be quite difficult for the Tang army to deal with.

"Staff Officer Wei has a keen eye!"

测量好后的徐大翘起大拇指道：“这个坦克使用的是32倍径的75毫米炮，备弹大约60发。外加3挺7.7毫米的并列机枪和高射机枪！

The front of the turret is armored with 60 mm, the front of the hull is 60 mm homogeneous steel with a horizontal inclination of 35 degrees, equivalent to 40 mm homogeneous steel, and the sides and rear are 30 mm vertical armor.

This tank is estimated to weigh about 25 tons. The specific engine parameters still need further experiments to know, but I estimate that its maximum speed will not exceed 30 kilometers per hour!

Moreover, its tracks are narrow, and its ability to pass through complex terrain is relatively low. Its off-road speed is probably around 15 kilometers per hour!"

Wei Li, Fang Yue and Guo Ditie all looked at Xu Da with admiration.

As expected of the Marshal's guard, it only took him 2 minutes to figure out the basic data of the tank.

However, Xu Le fell into deep thought, not to mention where Japan got so many resources to build tanks.

Even though Japan did not mass-produce the Type 70 heavy tank in the past, its tank gun was still mm.

Now, the tank in front of us has the same protection capabilities as the Type 75, also uses sloped armor, and has a mm tank gun.

Is this a technology that the devils can master?

Obviously, it is difficult for Japan to have such technology, otherwise it would have been used on the Type 97 medium tank long ago.

"Marshal, Marshal! Just like what Master Xu said, although the new tanks of the Japanese are much stronger, their frontal armor is only 40 mm and their mobility is much worse! They pose no threat to us at all!"

Seeing the Marshal in a daze, Wei Li thought that the Marshal was worried about the fighting on the front line, so he began to explain!

"I'm not worried about that!" Xu Le waved his hand and said, "Think about it, even if the Japanese have made a breakthrough in tank technology, they should have been able to mass-produce them step by step. How could there be thousands of them suddenly appearing? It's like they appeared out of thin air!"

Xu Le's words awakened everyone, and Wei Li and others fell into deep thought.

The Japanese Air Force's Shenying fighter jets were deployed step by step, gradually replacing old fighter jets.

However, these tanks were replaced in the thousands at one time. Where did the Japanese get such huge resources and productivity?

Unless the Japanese have mass-produced this type of tank long ago, and have kept it out of service until the critical moment, when they can be brought out all at once;

Either the Japanese received foreign aid and used the resources obtained from the aid to directly engage in mass production without using their own research and development technology.

However, Germany and Italy have not yet joined forces with Japan, and the two sides have not established transportation lines either inland or on the sea. Even if the former selflessly provides technology to Japan, how can Japan produce so many tanks in a short period of time?

"Forget it, we can't think of anything here! Commander Fang, notify the front-line troops that if they find any equipment that the Japanese have seen for the first time, they should seize some of it and bring it back to me!"
