Chapter 1620 One Day of War

The scorching heat has gradually receded, and on the Nagalil Great Plains, the heavy wheat ears swayed slightly in the wind.

Food and good harvests are often associated with joy.

But in the next second, the galloping tanks passed directly from the middle of the wheat field, and pieces of wheat ears that were about to mature were dumped into the wheat field.

Not just one tank, but a cluster of tanks!

It didn't take long for a large wheat field, and more than half of it was finished!

Ryan, the machine gunner in the tank, was silent. He came from the countryside. His grandfather, grandmother, including his parents, ran a farm.

When many people talk about farms, they will imagine the beautiful rural scenery, the comfortable and leisurely pace of life, and many beautiful things.

In fact, these are people’s misunderstandings about farms. They have watched too many unrealistic film and television works, or read some authors’ descriptions of the beautiful side of farms from novels, and have wrong perceptions.

The farm is not romantic at all, just like the idyllic scenery can never withstand the harassment of mosquitoes, especially at night.

Without the help of modern agricultural machinery, farming is not an easy job. Ryan often helped his family do something in the fields when he was a child.

That's definitely not a good memory.

But seeing so many ears of wheat that are about to mature lying in the field, he still felt a little pity.

It is a pity that people who have never farmed land cannot understand his feelings.

The weather in Nagalil has begun to cool down in recent days, and the hottest time has not exceeded [-] degrees, which makes everyone more or less bearable.

Some time ago, when Nagalil was at its hottest, it was unbearable.

The painting of the tank and its design doom the interior of the tank to be a large furnace. It is hotter outside and hotter inside the tank. This is no longer a problem that can be solved by taking off your clothes!
There are obvious problems with the design of the current first-generation tanks. They did not take into account the use in extreme environments.

On hot days, the temperature inside the tank can be several degrees above the outside air temperature!

When it was more than 40 degrees outside, the temperature inside the tank was almost [-] degrees.

It's okay to work for a short time, and no one can stand such an extreme situation for more than half an hour!

Before October, most of the military operations in Nagalil were based on air combat. It was not until October that the ground troops began to advance when the temperature dropped.

But even so, the temperature in the tank is still around [-] degrees, and it is still not suitable for working in the tank at the hottest time at noon.

In order to allow these tanks to gallop on the great plains of Nagalil, the army basically modified these tanks to a certain extent.

They added more air inlets, then added an air outlet, and added an air duct inside the tank following a guy who knows where the hell designed it.

This alleviates the problem that the internal heat cannot be discharged, but it also reduces the safety of some tanks.

There is a row of air intakes under the ground directly in front. Once encountering a landmine, or a low-angle explosion, or a direct hit by a bullet, there is a certain probability of causing direct damage to the soldiers in the tank.

But compared to dying in the heat, people are still willing to take these risks——

Taking tanks as a unit requires the consent of all members to modify them, and some soldiers in tanks did not do so for safety.

On this trip, they are heading to the central Nagalil war zone. Yesterday, several oil depots in the occupied area of ​​Penteo had a big explosion, which caused them to lack fuel.

Now that the federal air force has the upper hand and has mastered the air supremacy of the battlefield, they hope that the ground forces can cooperate and advance quickly.

Before the Penteo people could react, they quickly attacked an important central city.

Not only is there a large number of Penteo's troops in this city, but it is also one of their front-line warehouses.

As long as these things can be captured or destroyed, the attack on Peng Jieao will be a heavy blow!

The sudden bump made Ryan withdraw from the state of thinking, the wind under the calves was whistling, but the wind was also scalding hot.

A large roar in the sky came from behind, it was the first round of attack and bombing.

Having spent enough time in the field, Ryan has been able to distinguish the roar of bombers and fighters, and some soldiers even climb out of tanks and wave their hats at the fighters and bombers entering the combat zone in the sky.

The battle was about to break out, but Ryan didn't feel anything nervous or anxious.

Having experienced so many battles, and even brushed shoulders with the god of death a few times, he is no longer as afraid of fighting and death as he was at the beginning.

No matter how bad it is, can it be worse than the first time?

You know, he really almost died at that time!

When it was not too far away from the city, suddenly there was a piercing scream in the air, and the commander's order came from the communication device in the tank.

He asked all tanks to spread out and avoid.

This is the enemy's artillery at work. The Penteos have deployed a large number of howitzers in the city. They have discovered the torrent of steel from the Federation. This is just a normal exchange of fire.

In the observation port, many fighter jets also rose above the city, and the air battle broke out first!
This is the cruelest part of the war, and almost all soldiers know what they are going to face.

But they still rushed to the battlefield so numbly, without any hesitation or worry.

Sometimes some people think that the army is the exploitation and oppression of human nature, and it is not unreasonable.

There were planes constantly falling in the sky during the battle. This time the federal attack came very quickly, without too many signs, and the number was extremely large.

The bombers had already entered the fringes of the city, and the commander of the ground forces also issued an order to charge amidst the roar of artillery fire.

Ryan glanced at the tank that had come to a complete stop not far away, with the entire turret sunk, and observed three seconds of silence.

It seems that the people inside will definitely not survive, and the probability of being hit by the frontal bombardment to the turret is really small.

During the entire rush to the city, about eleven or twelve tanks lost power and stopped in place, which is already considered a miracle.

The first round of bombing was over, and the tanks began to attack.

The city of Nagalil... Except for the core business circle, it is basically a bungalow.

Moreover, there are very few cement and steel structures in this kind of bungalow, which also gave great convenience to the tank troops. They directly crushed the periphery of the city and launched an attack on the core area of ​​the city.

The bombed cities are full of wounded people, including Nagalilians and Penteo people. What Ryan has to do is to help these people relieve their pain!

The value of tanks in ground warfare is too great, and their role is too great. So far, they have not encountered a decent opponent.

Even if there are some lightly armored armored vehicles, they are not enough for tanks to fight with one shot.

However, I heard that the Penteio Empire has also completed their first tank design and is in production. Maybe it won't be long before they will have an opponent.

In the words of the commander, it is "Xiamen helped these idiots".

The battle was actually a little easier than imagined. At three o'clock in the afternoon, Peng Jieo's main force in the city saw that it was impossible to retake the city, and immediately began to evacuate.

After about six hours of fighting, the city was taken back from the Penteos by the Federals!

The follow-up ground infantry units began to wipe out the last participating enemy troops. Some enemies may have been injured and could not follow the troops to evacuate. They were arranged in various corners.

These people are mortal dangers, so the ground forces need to clean up these people as well.

Occasionally sporadic sounds sounded, representing the departure of fresh lives.

After the battle, Ryan crawled out of the tank. He didn't know how many people he killed with his own hands this time, he only knew that he survived again.

The strong cigarettes made him realize the beauty of life. He was standing on the edge of a clearing, and people were brought over and shot.

Not far away, many Nagalilians are digging pits. These corpses will eventually be burned and buried, otherwise problems will definitely occur.

The weather in Nagalil is so hot now, once the plague breaks out, it will not be a good thing for anyone.

With the sudden sound of gunfire, it ended suddenly, and more than a dozen Pengjieao people and locals fell into a pool of blood.

During the clean-up work later in the battle, the Federals discovered that some locals were working for the Penteos.

If it's just a simple job, then they don't need to be sent here.

Those people hid the soldiers and wounded that Penteo had no time to evacuate.

It may be for money, or there may be other reasons. In short, they became the accomplices of the Penteo people.

This is something the federal government cannot bear, and they must be given severe punishment, such as death.

When the next group of people was brought in, two middle-aged Nagalilians suddenly struggled. They ran away quickly, but they were still hit by two shots.

The two were dragged back by the locals, leaving two bright red marks on the ground.

At night, the pit was dug, and at the bottom of the pit they piled a great deal of things for burning.

Kerosene, wood, or whatever, when the fire was ignited, corpses were thrown into it.

The corpses were set on burning wood and burned, and soon Ryan had to run away holding his nose.

It stinks.

The stench emitted when the flesh was burnt was so strong that it choked the nose.

The fire didn't go out until late, and when Ryan came back the next morning, someone had already started filling it.

Most of those inside were burned to ashes.

However, right next to this pit, some people have already begun to dig the pit. Obviously, there are still some people who need to be cleaned up.

The victory of the local war is like a clarion call. The First and Second Fleet of the Federation, located in the northern port of Nagalil, seems to be preparing to move...
