Metal Ranger of the Endless Plane

Chapter 944: Lizard, dinosaur, machine

When the third sound sounded, all the lizardmen legions countercharged in the direction of Turner's forces, and these guys also ran along, although most of them were quickly trampled to death by nearby friendly troops.

This performance shows that the low-frequency sound waves have absolute control over these units. This kind of control even suppresses their biological instincts.

Even now looking back at their previous escapes, Lu Yuan wondered whether the so-called escape was just a passive command set in advance?

That is, if there is no active order to issue, then their first goal is to protect their own survival?

In other words, even their biological instinct to escape is just a preset instruction?

This kind of speculation made Lu Yuan feel terrified and shudder.

Looking at the high-altitude images uploaded by the reconnaissance drones was fine, but a few spider tanks in the front line also sent back the images taken by them from the first perspective.

In that scene, the lizardmen and dinosaurs dragging the flesh and blood corpses to rush towards them are exactly like the zombie sea.

Fortunately, the simple consciousness of these electronic life forms can't understand the life form's fear of being half-dead, otherwise I am afraid that this scene will cause the morale of the tank battalion in front to plummet.

However, even if the morale was not affected, after the Lizardmen Legion started a reverse shock, the front-line tank line had to gradually retreat under tremendous pressure.

After all, there are more than 100 tank guns with a rate of fire of less than ten rounds per minute, and the average number of shells fired per second is less than 30 rounds.

Even if each of these multi-purpose armor-piercing bullets can kill one large dinosaur, or three medium-sized dinosaurs, or eight lizardman infantry at a time, only 30 big tyrannosaurus guys can be killed every second. Or sixty medium cavalry, or two hundred lizardman infantry.

This may seem like a lot, but the hundreds of tanks in the two battalions are scattered on the front of a dozen or even dozens of kilometers.

That's it, because the enemy on the opposite side is not a counterpart in modern warfare with large-scale, powerful weapons, so the tanks are relatively densely distributed.

At the same time, on the opposite side of the battle line of tens of kilometers, there is a dense army of lizard people.

They are even less than half a meter apart. For the convenience of calculation, even if each of them occupies a width of one and a half meters, then a ten-kilometer front is ten thousand meters, that is, ten thousand meters divided by two meters equals five thousand people.

A line of 5,000 soldiers can only kill more than two hundred and less than three hundred per second. Of course, Turner's tank battalion cannot withstand this pressure and can only choose to retreat.

Yes, in addition to two tank battalions with more than 100 tanks, there are five self-propelled artillery battalions with more than 400 artillery?

The problem is that the rate of fire of a self-propelled artillery is also less than ten rounds per minute.

Even if the number of artillery is more than four times, the lethality is greater, to five times greater, and the lethality is 20 times greater than that of the tank battalion, then the number of kills per second is less than 20 times that of 300, so we will treat it as Six thousand is good.

Look, wouldn't this be enough to kill the 5,000 troops on one line of the Lizardmen?

Yes, that's the case, but the damage range of the artillery is not a straight line but a circle. Therefore, it is impossible to kill only the front line of troops, but a few small pieces in a large area.

Although the speed has gone up, it is still impossible for the lizardman's charging speed to be lowered, at most it can cut the density in the front.

But in this way, the lizardman warrior rushing to the forefront can still quickly rush to the spider tank and cause damage to it.

Therefore, the tank battalion had to withdraw while fighting.

What's more, there is a serious problem, that is, whether it is a tank or a self-propelled artillery, although there is a built-in magazine, although there is an automatic loader, there are only dozens of ammunition on each vehicle.

Once the ammunition is completely lit, you have to wait for the logistics supply truck to come and reload. At this time, the speed of the shelling will inevitably drop.

In fact, in order to make the frontline troops hold on for longer, Turner did not from time to time in the rear to replenish the supply truck that filled the front tank with ammunition boxes. He himself drove a small broken car all over the battlefield. , Directly reload each car personally.

As for front-line command, let the surge that has been commanding the self-propelled artillery also take over the command of the two tank battalions.

After all, he is the one who has been with Turner the longest now. He has been an apprentice even longer than Yanzi-Alex. If he transfers command to him, at least Turner is relieved.

But the problem isn't there, it's Turner.

He has dozens of brigade-level combat teams because of logistic ammunition and fuel supply vehicles, but he is the only one who can buy supplies directly from the crossing store.

Although he replenishes the tank with cannonball fuel very quickly, filling up almost instantaneously, which is far stronger than the logistics vehicle’s on-board robot supplying bombs and fuel, but the distance he wasted between the tanks has also been correspondingly longer. ten times.

As a result, the overall efficiency improvement is still very limited.

In the end, all the logistics convoys followed him everywhere. The vehicles he was filled with ammunition and fuel supply immediately left the convoy to supply the frontline troops, and the vehicles that had run out of supplies also went straight from the frontline troops to the ones that were always on the road. Turner.

In addition, Turner himself will fill up the magazines of all combat vehicles he encounters at any time along the way. These routines all add up to barely maintain the stability of the front line.

As a result, a great battle of cutting grass with unlimited ammunition and heavy firepower turned into a race of logistics troops.

Modern warfare is a logistical economy, it's not just a scene...

Then, there seems to be another problem.

If the pressure on Turner's side is so great, wouldn't the other parts of Lu Yuan's army come to help?

Of course it helped.

Previously, it was said that a platoon of enemy troops was 5,000 Lizardmen infantry. This hypothesis only counted the ten kilometers of troops.

But in fact, the entire Yucatan grassland is more than 500 kilometers long from north to south.

And the whole grassland is full of lizardmen warriors who have been grazing by Ascharotar and grow out like weeds.

Without the help of other troops, the Lizardmen Legion that attacked the Turner Heavy Armored Brigade Combat Team would have more than 10 kilometers of troops, at least 50 kilometers.

The reason why that situation didn't happen was because Luyuan was also using Turner's method to follow the rocket launchers in Xiafei's hands to fight fire everywhere on the grassland, reducing the speed of the opponent's assembly and even the siege.

Although the lizardmen and dinosaurs pulsed to the East Madre Mountains like a machine under the command of the opposing commander, they were not afraid of death subjectively, and objectively they would still be burned to death.

What Lu Yuan did was to make the fire on their way forward larger and longer.
