"The tea stalk is erected, do you know that there is such a saying in England?"

Darjeeling, who was sitting in the chariot, spoke slowly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"If the tea stalk is erected, it means that a distinguished guest is coming."

"IMHO." Orange and Huang Bai Hao looked at Darjeeling helplessly. "The guests have arrived...... Regardless of whether you are a guest or not. ”

As soon as Orange Huang Bai Hao finished speaking, there was a crisp ricocheting sound on the body of the car, and the chariot shook slightly.

Not far in front of the chariot, a number of Zhibodan vehicles appeared, attacking the chariot where Darjeeling was located.

However, the shells fired by the Zhibo single chariots could not penetrate the armor of the chariot where Darjeeling was located.

Darjeeling was riding in an A43 "Black Prince" heavy tank.

This is an experimental vehicle developed by the British during World War II using the chassis of the Churchill infantry fighting vehicle using the QF 17-pounder cannon. The name is taken from Edward the Blackprince, a well-known British commander in the Hundred Years' War between England and France in the 14th century.

The Black Prince, as a continuation of Churchill, inherited almost most of Churchill's characteristics, including heavy armor and slow speed to support the infantry. When the Black Prince was conceived, the British Army had already realized the importance of vehicle mobility (mainly because of the impact of the American M4 Sherman), and was working on the design of a new generation of cruising combat vehicles, so the Black Prince had already set the tone at the time of design as a 'universal combat vehicle' in the transition period between infantry fighting vehicles and cruising combat vehicles.

Because of the QF 17-pounder gun, which was larger than the Churchill, the Black Prince needed a wider turret, gun mount, and hull, resulting in the Black Prince being more than 10 tons heavier than the Churchill, almost exceeding the load capacity of the chassis, so the tracks had to be widened by 10 feet to be loaded. However, because Churchill's 350 hp engine was retained, the Black Prince's power was severely insufficient, and the road speed was only 16.9 kilometers per hour, so such a slow speed was tactically limited. Although a 600 hp engine was planned to replace it, it was not implemented.

The prototype of the Black Prince was completed in May 1945, but by this time the Firefly, which had been modified from the U.S. M4, had already had a mature combat record, and the Cromwell and Comet cruising vehicles had already been mass-produced and entered service, and even the next generation of the Centurion main vehicle had begun to be prototyped. These vehicles all have the same or even stronger guns than the Black Prince, and although the armor is thinner, the protection is not lower than that of the Black Prince, and the mobility is much better. The Black Prince has become a completely redundant design, and the military has terminated its development.

However, this is also the top heavy battle of World War II in Britain, and Darjeeling, as the first person in the St. Gloriana heavy chariot faction, naturally will not let it go easily, and directly get a flag car that comes back to be a flag.

On either side of the Darjeeling tank, there were also four Churchill Mk.VII heavy tanks.

The Black Prince of Darjeeling, as the flag car here, naturally attracted most of Zhibodan's firepower.

However, whether it is the Black Prince or the Churchill VII, the front armor is as thick as 152mm, and the 75mm gun on Zhibodan's side cannot penetrate it at all.

---------------I'm the dividing line---------------

Although Zhibodan's side was completely unable to inflict any damage on the opposing side, the scene of nineteen chariots attacking together was still very spectacular.

"Good job, kill the other party!"

"Keep the assault!"

"Don't be careless!"

……

There were bursts of shouts from the crowd, cheering on both sides of the game.

Plus, it's not just the spectators in the audience who are watching the game.

On the high hill beside it, a Soviet A3-AA truck was parked. The truck has a fire elevator mounted on the back of the truck, on which two young girls are carried.

A girl with short milky white hair was leaning against the railing, and the girl next to her was even stronger, sitting directly on the railing.

The girl sitting on the railing wore a certain blue and white hat, and her long brown shawl hair fluttered in the wind. She also has a canteler in her hand, which she plays from time to time.

"This exhibition game feels so cool."

The short-haired girl beside her suddenly spoke.

"Cool...... Is this important for the lane? ”

The long-haired girl spoke as she watched the game on the screen.

"Then Mika, why do you play Battlelane?" The short-haired girl tilted her head.

"All the important things in life can be condensed in this battle lane." With that, Mika closed her eyes. "But most people don't notice that."

"What is this......"

The short-haired girl beside her obviously couldn't understand what she was saying.

---------------I'm the dividing line---------------

"It's just a friendly match, but that's too careless."

Looking at Darjeeling, who was still tasting black tea, Orange Huang Baihao suddenly became a little anxious.

"It's not as easy as a chescone to destroy an enemy vehicle."

Even Assam gave a reminder.

"Calm down." Darjeeling put down the teacup in his hand, then said with a smile: "Be elegant at all times, this is the battle lane of St. Gloriana." ”

At this moment, the radio in the chariot suddenly sounded.

"This is Rose Hip, and there are no vehicles around for the big wash."

Darjeeling did not reply in a hurry, but sighed there.

"The scones don't cut themselves."

"Next, we just have to sit back and enjoy the food."

The anxiety on Orange and Yellow Baihao's face had long since disappeared, and now he was eager to try.

While the two were chatting, Assam had already begun to turn the turret.

It wasn't just the vehicle that began to take aim, as the four Churchills on either side turned their muzzles.

"And the sandwich will be ready soon."

After Darjeeling finished with a smile, he raised his head slightly.

"Fire!"

After receiving Darjeeling's order, Assam pulled the trigger directly.

A 76mm armor-piercing shell drilled out of the barrel and flew towards the Type 3 medium tank headed by Zhibo.

Although this shell is not the APDS of the 17-pounder gun's signature, nor is it an APCR, it is just the most ordinary APC, but the armor of the tank in the Type 3 is more than enough.

The cannonball hit the near-vertical head of the Type 3 medium tank, directly sending the Type 3 medium tank out of the game, and at the same time winning the first blood of the game. (To be continued.) )
