According to the original idea of ​​the Japanese, the soldiers would hide in the dark and use these tanks to attack the mines. The soldiers could use the bunkers to avoid the impact of the explosion and survive.

But on the battlefield, the Japanese soldiers holding the barbed grenades were basically disposable consumables, and were ordered to charge towards the enemy tanks with these barbed grenades.

In the eyes of the Japanese officers, this method was the behavior of a "warrior", and they thought it was a very worthwhile deal to exchange a soldier's life for a tank.

The Japanese soldiers who were brainwashed by militarism and Bushido would also take the initiative to pick up grenades and rush towards the tanks.

The Japanese soldiers carried barbed mines and rushed towards the Soviet tanks, causing considerable damage to them. Many tanks were successfully attacked by the Japanese and eventually turned into a ball of fire.

The battle entered a white-hot stage, and both sides suffered heavy losses in tanks.

However, this battle was not limited to ground combat. The Japanese bombers and fighter planes arrived at the battlefield first and began bombing ground targets.

It was just because the Japanese tanks were entangled with the Soviet tanks that the Japanese bombers did not dare to drop bombs on the tanks. They could only bomb the Soviet soldiers rushing up from the rear and some Soviet anti-tank artillery positions.

However, this also relieved some of the pressure on the Japanese tanks on the front battlefield.

But soon, the Soviet Union's planes also arrived at the battlefield, and the fighter planes, fighter jets and even bombers of both sides began to fight in the air.

Tanks on the ground were constantly being destroyed and turned into torches, and planes in the sky were constantly being shot down, falling to the ground with thick black smoke.

There were also some thin-skinned Japanese planes that had their fuel tanks blown up in the air and were directly dismembered in mid-air, turning into pieces that fell from the sky.

The division commander and the brigade commander stood on the top of the hill and watched the battle. Although the cold wind blew in their faces, the two men did not feel any chill. Instead, they stared at the situation on the battlefield with binoculars and kept communicating.

"Is this the strength of the Japanese Kwantung Army? If the Japanese had this strength in Shanxi Province, it would be difficult for us to deal with it!"

The division commander looked at the tanks emitting black smoke on the battlefield and couldn't help but speak.

"Yeah, this type of tank is even harder to defeat than the small tanks we fought back then. No wonder Li Yunlong thinks 500 tanks are too few. Our vision is still too narrow!"

The brigade commander couldn't help but shook his head.

At the beginning, Li Yunlong obtained 500 tanks and hundreds of planes. The brigade commander felt that with these equipment, he should be able to defeat the Japanese easily.

Li Yunlong felt that it was far from enough at the time. He believed that 500 tanks only had the ability to protect themselves, which was far from enough.

But judging from today's battle, 500 tanks are really not enough. After one battle, they will probably all be destroyed.

"This is the weakest Siberian Front of the Russian Bear. The Japanese armored forces are not strong either. If it was the armored forces of the German Third Army, the battle would have ended long ago!"

Li Yunlong put down the telescope and added a sentence after hearing the sighs of the division commander and brigade commander.

"Isn't this strong?"

Li Yunlong nodded and said, "The T34 tank is nothing compared to the Tiger tank. The Japanese Type modified shells are just a tickle. We still have a long way to go!"

After hearing Li Yunlong's words, the division commander and the brigade commander fell silent.

"According to you, if even a powerful German army like the Third Army can't defeat the Russian Bear, then aren't all our efforts in vain?"

The division commander looked at Li Yunlong and spoke slowly.

"No matter how powerful the equipment is, it still depends on the people. And after more than a year, it's hard to say who will be stronger and who will be weaker. Even if the Russians are strong, Siberia is too far away from their core area. They can only exert one-fifth or even one-tenth of their strength!"

After hearing Li Yunlong's words, the division commander and the brigade commander nodded and agreed with Li Yunlong.

The brigade commander nudged Li Yunlong and said, "You're not hiding anything anymore, kid?"

"Huh? What are you hiding?"

Upon hearing this, the division commander and the brigade commander immediately laughed: "Stop pretending! Forget it!"

Li Yunlong shrugged his shoulders, smiled and said, "I'm not pretending!"

"Then tell me what our tanks and planes will look like in the future?"

After hearing this, Li Yunlong picked up a cigarette and sneered, "From now on, if we have just one of our heavy armored combined forces, we can easily defeat all the countries of this era!"

"Heavy Armored Combined Brigade?"

"one?"

"All countries?"

"Flat push?"

Li Yunlong slowly blew out a puff of smoke and said, "Yeah, we have 29 such heavily armored combined brigades, and that's on weekdays. Once we're in combat readiness, we expect to be able to arm of them within six months!"

"..."

The brigade commander and the division commander looked at each other and suddenly felt a little envious of Li Yunlong.

The division commander suddenly understood why he had thought Li Yunlong was very strange before. It was because of the confidence in Li Yunlong, a confidence that could not be hidden!

"..."

"..."

"..."

A small easter egg that does not affect the main text.

September 2025, .

Li Yunlong got up early, washed up, and sat in front of the TV, waiting for this year's military parade.

"..."

“…The parade begins!”

"...Now approaching us is a formation of robot wolves. The robot wolves are from our country..."

"...Now approaching us is a tank formation. All the tanks in the tank formation were independently developed by our country..."

"...Now approaching us is a formation of cat-and-cat vehicles. Cat-and-cat vehicles are a general term for all-terrain vehicles independently developed by our country..."

"...Now approaching us is the strategic missile formation, the mighty and majestic Dongfeng-51 intercontinental ballistic missile, my country's latest strategic deterrent weapon. Compared to the Dongfeng-41, it has a longer range, higher accuracy, and can carry more warheads. The strategic missile force has been nicknamed Dongfeng Express by netizens. Dongfeng Express, mission accomplished, can carry out strategic strikes against any target around the world at any time, in all weather conditions, and can carry..."

"...Flying through the air was my country's sixth-generation fighter jet, marking my country as the first country in the world to field sixth-generation fighter jets..."

"..."

Li Yunlong watched TV while drinking the Maozi he had saved and eating peanuts. On the sofa next to him were photos of his former leaders.

"Hey, hey, brigade commander, division commander, did you see that..."

It's chapter 500 now. According to my outline, I'm halfway through the story. I originally planned to put this little Easter egg chapter on the 5th, but I'll just post it here. Thank you all for your continued support. Thank you! ~ I still owe four chapters. Please give me some free gifts and ask for more updates. Thank you! ~

Chapter 501: The Bear's Bitter Victory

The battle started in the morning and lasted until the afternoon, when the Battle of Archamp was finally over.

In the end, in this battle, the Japanese and the Russians deployed a total of thousands of tanks of various models and dispatched more than 800 aircraft.

The result of the battle was a tragic victory for the Russian bear.

The Soviet Union deployed 527 tanks, 320 of which became scrap metal, and another 100 tanks suffered varying degrees of damage, either because the tracks were broken and they could not move forward, or because the engines were damaged, and they had to withdraw from the battle.

In the end, there were more than a hundred tanks left, most of which had some damage, but were still barely usable.

The Japanese deployed a total of more than 480 tanks, more than 400 of which were destroyed, and the remaining dozens of tanks began to retreat at the last moment.

This was the loss of tanks. Both sides suffered heavy losses in fighters and bombers. The Japanese lost more than 130 fighters, bombers and attack aircraft of various models.

On the other hand, more than 180 fighter planes, bombers and attack aircraft were shot down by the Soviet Union.

The Japanese have a certain advantage in air combat, mainly because their current pilots are elite, and their fighter jets are better than those of the Soviet Union. Most of the aircraft equipped by the Soviet Union's Siberian troops are old models.

Only the aircraft that came to support after the fall of the Far East could crush the Japanese aircraft.

In terms of infantry, the Russians lost about 3,000 men, and the Japanese lost about 5,000 men.

In fact, the Japanese were able to destroy more than 34 Soviet tanks, and these Japanese infantry made contributions. Many of the Soviet main tanks, the T, were destroyed by these Japanese infantry using grenades.

In this battle, the Russians broke through the Japanese's first line of defense in the direction of Kurkusk and sounded the clarion call for a counterattack.

Although a lot of armored troops were lost, the Russian tank troops did not stop. The remaining tank troops that could move continued to advance, and more armored troops were on the way to reinforce.

Gastilovich followed Li Yunlong's advice and continued the pursuit.

Because the Japanese had only more than 500 tanks on the Siberian front, this battle mobilized almost all of the front-line tanks, and there was no armored force left to fight against the remaining tanks of the Soviet Union.

If we don't take advantage of this opportunity to continue the pursuit, the battle will become more difficult by the time the Japanese react and set up positions and layers of defense.

"It's really tragic!"

The division commander and others watched the battle for a whole day. If Li Yunlong had not sent someone to build an ice house next door, the group of people would probably have turned into ice sculptures while watching the battle by the fire in the ice house.

"The Japanese Kwantung Army has been weakened quite a bit after this battle, right?"

The division commander stretched his stiff body and looked at Li Yunlong curiously.

Now the division commander and others have become accustomed to asking questions to Li Yunlong, and they have also discovered that the tactics they are familiar with are not enough now.

"It's been weakened a bit, but not severely enough. We can only say that it has consumed a certain amount of the Japanese's war potential. The number of tanks lost is not important. What's important is the tank drivers, who are all technical soldiers."

After Li Yunlong finished speaking, he pointed to the sky and said, "What I want to consume most now is the Japanese pilots. After all these elite pilots are consumed, we can go out!"

"Pilots? How many Japs are there?"

"About 3,000 people. Once these 3,000 are used up, the quality of the next batch of pilots will probably be worse!"

Li Yunlong knew very well what the Japanese's natural weaknesses were. After obtaining resources, the Japanese had no shortage of production equipment, but due to their own reasons, their talent reserves were definitely insufficient.

The navy and the army controlled the Japanese military funds and did not establish a separate air force, so the number of Japanese pilots has always been insufficient. When they bullied our country in the early days, more than 3,000 pilots were more than enough, and the total number of naval aviation and army aviation was only about 7,000. The navy would not help the army, and only needed to deal with the army's pilots.

In the later period of the war with the Americans, this group of elite pilots were quickly consumed. After the death of this elite group, the Japanese quickly lost air superiority. By the time the Japanese reacted, it was too late. In the end, they had planes but no pilots, and could only use the tactics of the Kamikaze Special Attack Force.

As long as they learn how to take off and control the plane, they can go to the battlefield. They are not asked to shoot down enemy planes with weapons, but to use planes as bombs and die together with the enemy.

"Learning never ends. We should bring all the commanders in our army here to see what they are like. Don't let them become complacent!"

The brigade commander nodded in agreement and said, "Indeed, we need to study quickly, otherwise when we counterattack the four northeastern provinces in a year, we won't even know how to command the troops!"

"Hahaha……"

After watching from a distance, the division commander, brigade commander and others went around the battlefield, observed it closely, and kept recording things, including some tactics used by the Japanese that they saw on the battlefield.

These are the situations we will need to face in the future.

On the other hand, after the Soviet troops launched a counterattack, the Japanese Siberian Front Command received the news.
