Nihonkoku Shoukan (WN)

Gura Barcas 4th Division

A tank moves on the forefront of the hollow mountains.

Tank commander Marta and his subordinates talk inside the tank.

"I'm going through the hollow mountains a little more."

"It's absolutely ... joking terrain ..."

Looking up, the stones develop like three-dimensional stitches.

However, the ground was plain.

"Mu artillery has a slow initial velocity. If you want to fire at me, you have to get quite close.

We will find it first and hit the tank gun.

Even if you take the lead, Mu's cannon will easily bounce back into the armor of my tank. ''

The hollow mountain range has a mesh-like rock structure in the sky, so you cannot use a howitzer that draws a parabola or air support.

Tanks can be an overwhelming advantage if linear attacks are dominant.

And the countries that operate tanks in other countries are not known.

In other words, the empire was the strongest, and they developed overwhelming confidence.

The tank commander opens the upper hatch and looks out.

Near, tanks are lined up at equal intervals, followed by armored vehicles and cars.

The number is so large that even the familiar him is overwhelmed ...

"The empire is still invincible. No one in this world will be able to stop this march."

Frank impression.

Suddenly, light runs ahead.

"Hmm?"

The area near is dim enough for light to leak out, the visibility is about 1 km, and something shines further.

At the next moment, the tank running ahead vibrated, and the sound of the metal hitting the metal was heard.

"Attack !!"

The tank that would have been attacked suddenly stops like a broken puppet.

Sudden stoppage, not particularly explosion.

At the next moment, the same phenomenon occurred in 10 other vehicles at the same time and they stopped.

"What ... what happened !!"

Sudden stop even though it did not explode. I don't know what happened, and the captain's car sends a radio to confirm the situation.

There is no response from a stopped tank.

Commander Malta, commanded by the commander, stopped at the side of the tank that was parked ahead and found the tank.

"Ah ... there's a hole !!"

There was a large hole in the crew compartment of the tank.

The hole also penetrates behind.

"Attack! Send radio to all units!"

"Hah !! Each station is currently under attack from the 2nd Tank Platoon! Currently under attack!"

The attack continues while the radio is running.

The Type 10 tank changed its warhead from APFSDS (armor-piercing shell) to HEAT-MP (multipurpose anti-tank grenade) warhead and continued to shoot.

"What !!!! How many enemies are there !!"

Tanks explode violently in quick succession.

Although the position of the enemy is not known, the front-line tanks have started firing in various directions, for no apparent reason.

The 4th Division Commander Borg was terrified after hearing the confused radio of his allies.

The sound of bombardment and explosions in the mountains echoes and increases the tension.

"The 1st Tank Platoon is annihilated !!"

"The third tank platoon, annihilated!"

Tense radio flows from the observer.

"What's going on! What's going on!"

"The position of the enemy has not been confirmed yet! In addition, the power of the artillery far exceeds our artillery, and almost all hits with accurate shooting!!

Damage is still expanding! ! ! "

"I can't believe it !!"

The tanks of the Gura Barkas were by far the most powerful in the world.

Run around at 38 km / h and release the cannon.

Two heavy machine guns can handle infantry and non-armored objects, and the enemy is afraid with only one machine.

It was truly an invincible land dragon, and could be said to be a considerable force.

In the world now, there is no enemy to go, and mass production is in progress.

Such an invincible tank is blown off continuously.

"What a fire!"

The tank is silent so much so far. Reports of all hits, etc., may have arisen from chaos on the battlefield. The enemy could have been a large unit far beyond imagination. Borg shakes from the soul.

There is no explosion on the ground near.

By watching the phenomenon that only the tank is exploding, the fighting soldiers judge that they are all hit.

Radio interference causes confusion on the battlefield.

I don't know where the enemy is shooting from.

However, I understood the general direction of the attack.

The 4th Division is a large unit, and it cannot be retreated, and Borg decides.

"All squads! Advance at all speeds !!!! Defeat enemies with quantity !!"

If the enemy is a tank, retreat should be slower than forward.

He wanted to catch up with a few violence and destroy enemies.

The tank units of the 4th Division of the Gura Barcas Empire began a death march as friendly forces exploded continuously.

"I see ...!"

Light leaked through the mountains by chance into an enemy tank.

The tank in which the 2nd platoon, Malta rides, found an enemy tank.

Friendly tanks still boasting strength continue to explode. The fear of suddenly ending your life.

"Hey, it's a lie!"

"Incredible!!!"

The number of enemies was small, and they were tanks at all.

All enemy tanks seen through the telescope are much larger than the empire's proud tanks and are equipped with large caliber guns.

Surprisingly, the enemy is shooting slowly while retreating and running. Consecutive fire unlike any other tank, but no gun can hit the target.

The ground is not perfectly flat, and the gun sways up and down when running on a tank.

Normally, for a moving target, you stay still and aim and fire.

Even veteran artillery can hardly hit moving targets.

However, the enemy tanks are retreating, and they bombard with slalom so that they are not easily targeted from here.

There was no way the gun would hit the slalom.

"So ... that's such a stupid !!!!"

Artillery fire that should not be hit, still hits the friendly army continuously.

In fear, Malta realized that there was.

"The landings are not duplicated !!"

Usually, if you attack, the targets overlap.

In a confused battlefield and in a situation where you have to shoot a lot of enemies, it is impossible to imagine that even if you can set a rough attack range, there is no duplication of many targets. Even with a high degree of skill, an unrealizable phenomenon occurred in front of my eyes.

Military common sense collapses.

Borg skipped his command in the dread.

"The enemy's deployment area is small! Suppress shootings, disperse and open and fire!! The amount is overwhelming!

Destroy enemy tanks! ! "

The tanks boasting the Gura Barkas empire advance at 38 km / h and shoot 47 mm cannons.

More than a hundred tanks were scattered and shelling was released.

Storm due to shells ... The volume was overwhelming, and the tank guns and 47mm main guns, which the Empire was proud of, were blown down just like storms.

While the friendly army exploded and fired, he fired simply in the direction where the tank would be.

A violent explosion sounds, echoes, and earth smoke rise near.

"How about ... this is surface suppression shooting!"

Position where the enemy may be deployed ... Suppressing fire that attacks the entire area of the designated area.

The soil near the direction of the enemy tank soared into the sky, and the front was covered with smoke.

Gogogogo …… Gogogo ……

The sound of the shelling echoes into the mountains, producing an eerie sound.

"I don't know who ...

It was a strong enemy. Damage to friendly tanks will be tremendous.

If there were the same number of enemy tanks, it would not have been a game.

"It was a strong enemy ... who the hell was ..."

Malta's consideration is forcibly suspended.

The tank running in the right rear scattered with the explosion.

"Bah ... stupid!"

Smoke should still be covering the enemy. However, the shells fly through the smoke,

Crush.

It is an unrivaled shooting rate, and a friendly tank that scatters and tries to escape will also explode.

"What's going on! What's going on !!"

A situation has occurred that is not possible with one's own military common sense.

Friends who explode continuously ... Fear of death ... Not only in the tank commander, Malta, but all the stomachs in the car were sharply ached.

The 4th Division of the Gura Barcas Imperial Army fell into a state of depression.

"Wow!"

The main gun of the Type 10 tank hits the tank that Tank Commander Malta is riding.

A 120mm shell with powerful kinetic energy breaks through the rigid tank armor without any incident, and the metal jet rampages in the car.

As a result, the ammunition ignites and releases its energy.

The rapidly expanded air lost its place and headed to a weak place.

The turret blew off, and, worse, ignited the ammunition on board.

Tank Commander Malta and his subordinates died in furious light.

The Ground Self-Defense Force Type 10 tank's scope can be recognized clearly even in bad weather or at night ... even in fog.

Excellent gun stabilization means that you will not miss your enemy even when sprinting on the shaking ground.

The turret always faces the enemy, even if it moves like a slalom.

The FCS fire control system accurately grasps the flying speed of the gun and the movement of the enemy and the enemy, and fires a shell at the enemy's future position.

The initial speed of the mounted 120 mm smoothbore gun is far higher than that of the rifle, and its kinetic energy produces a powerful destructive power.

The Ground Self-Defense Force's 7th Division, 12 platoons of 10 Type 10 tanks engaged with 200 preceding tank units of the 4th Division of the Gra Barcass Empire, and destroyed 135 vehicles.

The tank withdrew because it achieved its operational objectives.

◆◆◆

The tank battalion fired a suppression fire against an unknown enemy.

However, it is unknown whether it landed or ... or the enemy endured, but he received a violent counterattack from the soil.

The tank unit was confused.

When the earth smoke standing near the enemy clears, the enemy's appearance can no longer be confirmed.

The reconnaissance team searched nearby, but did not find any enemy.

Under the 4th Division Commander Borg, details of the battle situation and details of the damage situation begin to enter.

"What are you doing! Do you know anything about the size of the enemy, the vehicle, etc.?"

"No one has confirmed the details, but there are sightings that the enemy was using a tank.

In the confirmed range, there were about 10 tanks! ! "

"Can you see no other enemies?"

I was appalled by the fact that even the size of the enemy was unknown.

"In case of damage ..."

The report continues.

The tank has been invincible until now. As a result, the fourth division had lost more than half of the tanks in the fact that only 135 tanks were destroyed.

"Division leader, make a decision !!"

The hollow mountains cannot attack from the sky.

Even an aircraft in the Mu country would be a major threat if attacked without air control.

Therefore, the Army had estimated that there would be no significant damage in hollow mountains where there was no room for aircraft to intervene.

Speaking of what the country can do, conceal the cannon and shoot when approaching. That was about it.

The damage caused by this unidentified attack is enormous and truly “unexpected”, and further instructions are awaited.

"Soon we will go through the Hollow Mountains. Units will invade as planned! However, reduce the invasion speed, increase the number of motorcycle reconnaissance units, and hit with extreme caution."

"Roger that!!"

I do not know the scale of the enemy. There may be more powerful enemies awaiting you.

However, imperial soldiers were not allowed to withdraw just for that reason.

The command is dropped by Borg.

The unit proceeds with caution.

A few hours later, the fourth division of the Gura Barkas Empire completed the troop deployment in the Great Plains in front of Kielski, without encountering enemies and traversing the Hollow Mountains.

Should Mu's attack aircraft strike, he will soon escape to the Hollow Mountains.

Unlike the Hollow Mountains, which have many hidden places, the army has a large number of units in plains.

Since the sky is clear and you can see far into the field of view, it is hard to receive a surprise attack from a close distance like the one above.

I feel a little easier.

But-.

"Correspondent, is there still no reply from the base !?"

I have been flying wireless many times.

At the time of the plan, the airstrikes to the Kiel Seki and the enemy army should have reduced their enemy strength.

"The radio may be in a dead zone or a magnetic storm peculiar to this star.

Continuing or canceling the invasion ... It may be because our arrival was three hours behind schedule due to the lack of a contact. "

The correspondent gives his impression.

Barkulus, the forefront base of the Gura Barcas, was devastated by the airstrikes of Japan and the attacks of the Mu aviation squadron, so he couldn't afford to fly the communicators. There is no.

"But ... an hour soon ..."

If the contact aircraft does not arrive at the designated time, it will be contacted by radio, and there is a possibility of a wireless blind zone, so at least one aircraft with an Antares-type fighter will fly every hour Met.

But I haven't come yet.

An unexpected attack was received earlier, and an unexpected situation where you could not contact the base this time.

◆◆◆

Mu country Kielseki west side

There is a small plain on the west side of Kielseki, and there is a mountain at an altitude of 429m.

If you go further west, you will reach a plain of about 22km and reach the mountain range.

Hokugo, Commander of the western army of the Mu Army, sighed as he saw the units deployed in front of him.

Troops will be deployed in front of you to protect the keelseki where the railway base is located, and to stop the invasion of land in Mu.

Equipped with state-of-the-art equipment, boasting unprecedented quantity and quality, it is safe to say that it is the strongest elite unit in the country.

However, ahead of the western unit, the 7th Division of the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force had finished its units.

"Hokugo Command, the 7th Division of the Ground Self-Defense Force will now conduct surface suppression fire against the Gura Barcas Imperial Army."

Kazuki Ouchida, the 7th Division Chief, explains to Hokugo.

In front of Hokugo, self-propelled howitzers that were not even designed in the Mu country were neatly lined up, with their large muzzles facing the west.

Furthermore, many weapons called multiple rocket systems are facing west.

"We have already seized the Gura Barcas Imperial Army and will soon launch an attack."

"The development of the empire was about 30km away, right?"

Hokugo confirms.

"Yes, definitely."

It is unrealistic for enemy soldiers to be deployed on the other side of the mountain, and for land guns to fly over a vast range of 30 km.

However, their strength is confirmed by information from all directions.

What are your invisible positions and how you feel completely attacked from outside your range?

We hear that the enemy dropped Mu Aloo and committed cruelty.

However, my heart hurt a little when I thought that many soldiers would die without even realizing it.

The fourth strongest division of the Gura Barkas empire was beyond imagination, as no one had its maximum ranged artillery at 22 km in the previous or present world.

SDF deployed outside their search area.

Kazuki Ouchida, Chief of the 7th Division of the Ground Self-Defense Force, offered a silent prayer before firing.

Open your eyes.

"Begin attack!!"

"Tee!"

After the roar, smoke rises from the gun.

The 155mm howitzer, lined up in order, has begun firing.

Beyond that, the rocket continuously emits flames from behind, flying continuously.

MLRS, a multiple rocket system that is said to be able to suppress and fire six soccer fields with only one aircraft, has also started shooting.

The 7th Division of the Ground Self-Defense Force has started bombarding the 4th Division of the Gra-Barcass Empire, which extends about 30 km west.
