Chapter Twenty-Four: The Chariot Advances!

"Teams, the radio switch is on, right? This time it's practice, so just use the non-encrypted mode. To put it simply, as long as you're nearby, your conversations will be heard by others. But it's also a lot of fun! ”

"If you're ready, answer it~. Ah, the sound is down like headphones, remember to answer with a throat microphone. It was a vehicle-specific microphone worn on the head that transmitted the vibration of the throat. ”

Then, the voices of the crews came over the radio.

"Hey, here's the Student Council team. 38t is ready to be completed. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Microphone, referring to this? Volleyball, uh, eight-nine? That's what it's called, right? Teach anytime! ”

"Assault gun number three, Caesar. The dice have been rolled! *(Note: Caesar's quote: Alea.)

iactaest。 Meaning: made a decision that there is no way back. )”

"Hey, it seems that you just need to press this button~. Ah, we're first-year M3 chariots. Can you hear me? ”

"Good. Now, everyone, should we determine the responsibilities of each of you? You're all seated, right? Combat vehicles are divided into functions such as shooting, driving, and communication according to their seats. If it's a three-person vehicle with the smallest number of people, it's the driver, the signal soldier, and the commander as the leader! ”

"For a four-man tank, add a gunner. If there are only three people, the commander will have to shoot at the same time...... Doing so means handing over the shooting task to a dedicated team member who is responsible for shooting. Then, in the case of a five-player vehicle, add an additional loader. Because the shells had to be loaded one shot at a time. That is, to divide the work as well. Ah, so let's say we have an M3 medium tank "Lee" with six people on board. That car, because it is a type with two main guns, just arrange two gunners. ”

……

"It's all set, right? Well, finally close the hatch cover above. Let's go! ”

With the voice of the instructor, the girl closed the hatch above herself in one breath, and Yuko on the side also learned from the girl to close the hatch.

"Ahh ,It's so dark.,Yu-chan.,Is this really okay?。 ”

The girl ignored Yuko's words and fumbled around for a while before pressing a switch.

The roof lights were turned on, and the interior of the car instantly became much brighter, but it did not feel glaring at all, but soft.

"Ha-chan..., what is this?"

"It's just a few minor modifications." The girl rubbed her temples and sighed softly. "I'm sorry that I didn't have time to modify the automatic transmission for the battle lane race, Moe."

"No... It's okay. ”

……

"The rest is just going to get used as you go! Where there's a will, there's a way, this is the soul of the battle lane, right? Alrightβ€”all the tanks, panzervor! ”

"Alright, according to what the instructor said, let's go. Everyone, come on~"

"Oh~""

With a roar of the engine, the tank moved again. But this time Meng learned the lesson of last time.,Concentrate on the road ahead.,And the speed is much more stable.。

[Moe has learned a lot of things, too.] ]

"Next, it's time for you to reload."

"Oh oh oh, is it finally me?"

"Be quiet." The girl took out a cannonball from the ammunition rack. "Look, there are three types of shells for this tank. They are the BR-365A hood-piercing grenade (APHEBC), the BR-365P hard-core armor-piercing grenade (APCR), and the O-365K grenade (HE). ”

"It's complicated......"

"Of course, you just have to remember that this is an armor-piercing bullet."

The girl then pointed to the other two shells on the ammunition rack. "And then this one is a grenade, and this one is a gold coin bomb."

"Coin bombs?"

"Ahem...... "The girl realized that she had slipped her mouth." Composed... Because this kind of shell is very rare during the war and is as precious as a gold coin, it is also commonly known as a gold coin shell. ”

"Oh oh oh that's the case, you know so much about Yu-chan."

Seeing that Yuko didn't have the idea of continuing to ask, the girl breathed a sigh of relief.

[My sister is really powerful, I never knew there was such a thing. 】

[Do you even want to complain about me!] ]

"Total... Anyway, you just have to reload as I tell you. ”

Due to the dark environment inside the car, Yuko didn't see the girl's face, which was already as red as an apple.

"Look... Look, I'll just demonstrate it once. ”

Then the girl put the cannonball back in the ammunition rack and opened the bolt. Then he took out the shell again and gently pushed it in.

With a "clang", the bolt was closed.

"Okay, do you understand?"

"Uh-huh~, don't worry about leaving it to me."

"Well, let's try it now." The girl looked at the surprised Yuko and nodded. "Attention, I'm going to fire this cannon now~, everyone get ready."

"Huh?"

As the girl pulled the cannon rope hard, the 85mm.56-85JT cannon let out a deafening roar.

Rumble!!!!!!!

A cloud of flames erupted as the BR-365A armor-piercing projectile was fired from the muzzle at a speed of 792 m/s.

The chariot shook violently, as if it were about to fall apart. At this moment, the shell retreated from the artillery, and landed in the metal frame at Yuko's feet with a "ding".

Some of the exhaust gases were vented from the bolts, but they were immediately removed by the exhaust fan.

"It's... It's ......"

"That's right, this is the chariot cannon~" The girl proudly patted the airfield on her chest. "You'll get used to it a few more times."

"Come, Yuko is up to you." The girl pursed her lips and looked at Yuko with a vicious (self-perceived) expression. "If you can't install it, I'll throw you out of the car.

Looking at the girl's expression, Yuko couldn't help but laugh. "Okay, look at me."

Yuko opened the bolt smoothly, but as soon as she took out a shell from the ammunition rack, Yuko's expression changed.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's heavy. ”

"Cut, this is still a combat lane training projectile with reduced charge, and the real shell weighs 9.2 kilograms."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I just saw that you took it so easily, I thought it was very light. ”

Then Yuko loaded the cannonball according to the gourd's drawing, and with a "click", the cannonball bolt was closed.

The girl breathed a sigh of relief, although the cannonballs used in the battle lane were the latest high-tech and would not explode if they fell to the ground, the girl couldn't help but worry.

After a while, the tank drove to the designated position.

"Very well, let's wait for the instructor's instructions."

---------------I'm the dividing line of waiting---------------

"Looks like everyone has arrived at the starting point." The voice of the instructor was heard over the radio.

"The rules are simple, stop all other vehicles from moving."

"That means full speed ahead, onslaught, and all of them are solved, you know?"

The girl wiped the sweat from her forehead. "It's so casual......"

"The battle lane starts with a salute and ends with a salute, saluting each other."

""""""Please advise." ””””

"So, the game starts now!"
