Chapter 408 personally lead the team (102/105)
Three thousand tanks, plus nine thousand female soldiers, are Eugen's trump card.
In addition, other female soldiers also conducted regular military training. The reason why Eugen summoned so many soldiers at the beginning was to select enough tank drivers as much as possible under a large base. Now the tank driver has been selected, but other female soldiers can still stay in the army and become infantry or other troops.
At the same time, they can also become alternate soldiers for tank drivers. When there is a vacancy in the future, they will let these female soldiers take over.
The training results of these female soldiers were very disappointing and could not even step onto the battlefield as infantry, so Eugen ordered them to stay in the city of Lebour, and the battle outside was handed over to the three thousand tanks.
Eugen was confident that with three thousand tanks, the Ottoman Turkish army was nothing, that was a plate of appetizer that could be swallowed easily in one bite.
And this time, Eugen also wanted to drive a tank to fight in person. He has liked such powerful war weapons since he was a child, and he dreamed of having a chance to drive.
Are the tanks ready-made or produced by their own factory, Eugen certainly wants to try this feeling.
Walking into a tank, the two most outstanding female soldiers in the training were the ones who drove the same tank. They first saluted Eugen respectfully, and then sat in their own positions.
One of the two female soldiers was responsible for driving and the other was responsible for firing, while Eugen was in the position of a machine gunner.
He has not systematically learned how to drive tanks and fire guns, so the position of the machine gunner is the most suitable for him.
Entering the tank, Eugen sat in his seat with a confident smile on his face and said, "Okay, guys, let's go now and let those bitches see how powerful we are."
The order was transmitted to each tank through the radio equipment loaded on the tank. A roar of mechanical activation sounded, and three thousand tanks started to move and slowly walked towards the south.
The poor Ottoman Turkish Legion, they didn't know what a terrifying scene was waiting in front of them.
Eugen sat in the cab, keeping in touch with everyone in the team at any time through radio equipment, a condition that other troops could not compare with.
This means that even in the midst of battle, Eugen can accurately and promptly pass the orders to every soldier's ears.
Radio equipment is also the latest research result of the First Research Institute of Lebir City. Under the guidance of Eugen, these things have almost no detours from research and development to manufacturing finished products to mass production.
Eugen's mind was like a treasure house of knowledge. Once these treasure houses of knowledge were supported by enough power, they could burst out unimaginable results.
At this moment, these three thousand tanks are the best proof.
The reason why there are only 3,000 tanks is not because the production capacity of the First Steel Plant has reached the upper limit, but because Eugen requires only 3,000 tanks.
In Eugen's view, having this number is enough to solve these problems at present, and there is no need to produce more.
After all, the Type A tank is the first batch of tanks, and there are still some defects in design. The production of the next batch of tanks will have to be solved and a more powerful and complete tank is designed, and it will be carried out again.
These three thousand tanks were also incorporated into a legion by Eugen, and their name was the Mechanized Legion. Judging from this name alone, it can be seen that Eugen has a great ambition. He wants more than these tanks. In Eugen's view, this mechanized Legion must have various strong modern weapons and tanks, which are just the earliest batch.
The A-type tank advances very quickly, and even in areas with relatively complex terrain, it can reach about 60 kilometers per hour.
This speed has greatly exceeded the speed of a war horse. Moreover, because the tank is stocked with a large amount of fuel, the tank can maintain full speed for a whole day and night at one time, and then lose power due to fuel exhaustion.
This endurance capability can ensure that the tank meets its current combat needs without worrying about suddenly losing fuel while fighting.
Maintaining the high speed, finally, at about three o'clock in the afternoon, the tank army led by Eugen met the Ottoman Turkish army.
The battlefield slowly opened on the great plains in the southern part of the Leber region.
The commander of the Ottoman Turkish Empire's legion was full of confidence when he first entered the Lebir region. When he saw that no enemy troops had appeared for a long time, he smiled and said, "The nobles here are not a soft man, you dare not come out after seeing our legion, and you have not sent anyone to intercept us until now."
When the other legion generals heard this, they also laughed contemptuously. Before they arrived, they had collected information about the city of Lebour and knew that there was a marquis here and had about 10,000 soldiers under them.
Since Eugen had not been visible before, the information they collected was very limited, and only what had happened in the recent period.
That is the battle between the Dragon Horse Army, the Church Army, and the Wittelsbach family army.
When they heard that Eugen defeated nearly 100,000 coalition forces with an army of ten thousand people, these generals did not believe it at all. In their opinion, this was a joke.
How could a 10,000 people beat more than 10,000 people unless these 10,000 people are terrible giant monsters.
This is what the Legion commander said at that time. Other generals generally had this idea. They believed that the news was fabricated for bluffing.
Later, news came out that the city of Leber summoned female soldiers, and now the commander and generals of the army became even more fearless.
"Hahaha, a nobleman who uses female soldiers, hiding behind a woman's butt, is simply a coward." The commander of the legion mocked disdainfully.
Someone next to him immediately responded with a smile: "Hahaha, yes, female soldiers are of course useful, but they are on another battlefield, that is, on the bed..."
This sentence was immediately approved by several generals, and they all smiled tacitly. In the Ottoman Turkish Empire, women's status was even lower, so their generals naturally looked down on the female soldiers in Lebir City even more.
The commander of the legion said directly: "Haha, I see that the noble here wants to use female soldiers to give us some warmth, and then beg us to let them go...hahaha!"
