Chapter 117: Anti-tank gun firing
"It would be nice if I could have the STG44 assault rifle and the MG42 general-purpose machine gun now, and I would definitely be able to kill more Japanese devils!"
When Wang Changgui arrived at the front line of the general attack of the Japanese army in Tianhe District, he sighed while looking at the Cantonese soldiers who were desperately retreating.
Because behind these Cantonese soldiers, the Japanese tank group and armored vehicle group are also pursuing them with great vigour.
As long as you run for your life at a slower speed, you will not be killed by the tank guns on the Japanese tanks; It was shot by the machine guns on the tanks and the machine guns on the armored vehicles.
In short, for the remnants of the Cantonese army without armored troops, their lives depended on the speed of their escape.
The line between life and death is only in a moment.
However, some of the Cantonese troops who were hiding in the streets and alleys successfully evaded the killing of the Japanese armored groups, and engaged in street battles with the Japanese infantry who came behind.
"Hurry up and help them with those Japanese tank groups and armored vehicle groups on the other side!"
Seeing this, Wang Changgui also quickly gave an order.
At this time, he also took off the anti-tank rifle on the back of the pursuit, and together with the escort Wu Zhiwei, who had been united, he took down all the anti-tank guns on their bodies, preparing to destroy those Japanese armored groups.
It didn't take long for 6 13mm Mauser M1918 anti-tank rifles, because the guns were too heavy, so Wang Changgui and them were divided into a group of two soldiers; One person acts as a marksman, operating a large and heavy rifle, and the other as an observer; Responsible for indicating targets and observing the effect of firing, this configuration was similar to the sniper groups that emerged in various countries at that time.
Like the classic Mauser bolt-action rifle, the M1918 is a single-shot bolt-action rifle with a caliber of 13.2 mm, with a tripod and V-shaped ruler, with a scale from 100 to 500 meters, but can only deal with protected targets up to 300 meters.
However, although this 13.2×92mm Mauser bullet can penetrate a 25 mm thick armor plate, the kinetic energy of the bullet is often consumed to penetrate the 25 mm thick armor plate; When the Mauser bullet penetrates the armor plate, it will often lose its lethality, so if you want to kill and injure the personnel in the tank, then you must really hit the important parts of the tank, or penetrate the armor from the side, so that the shot can kill and injure the personnel in the tank, and then let these hit tanks withdraw from the battle, or be destroyed on the ground and report scrapped.
However, it was more than enough to destroy the Japanese Type 97 thin-skinned tanks with a total weight of only 15 tons, a crew of 4, a 57mm short-barreled gun, and an armor thickness of only 25mm.
And now Wang Changgui has also prepared a lot of special ammunition, such as SME semi-armor-piercing bullets, SMK armor-piercing bullets, SMK (G) armor-piercing bullets, PMK armor-piercing incendiary bombs, SMKL armor-piercing tracer bullets, SMKB incendiary test projectiles, etc.!
Therefore, in the upcoming anti-tank and armored vehicle battles, Wang Changgui and they can definitely make those Japanese armored units lose a lot of tanks and armored vehicles.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
Just after Wang Changgui and the others prepared anti-tank guns and special ammunition, not far from them, two Japanese Type 95 light tanks were already firing at a small group of scarred and fleeing Cantonese soldiers.
"Then on the left, I'll be in charge of the right, and I'll kill those two devils' Type 95 tanks first!"
Seeing this, Wang Changgui immediately issued a combat order to the guards Wu Zhiwei and them.
As soon as the order was given, the guards Wu Zhiwei hurriedly took their anti-tank guns and immediately split up.
When they arrived at their combat positions and prepared to shoot, the two Type 95 tanks and two Vickers armored vehicles imported from Britain by Japan were also swaggering and unscrupulous.
At this time, Wang Changgui and the guard Wu Zhiwei had already turned on the anti-tank bolt very skillfully, and quickly and skillfully opened the bolt, and Ciric quickly stuffed the PMK armor-piercing incendiary bomb into it, and had already aimed at the target they were about to shoot.
"Hahaha! These Chinese armies are really vulnerable! They are as vulnerable as ants under the attack of the armored forces of our Imperial Japanese Army! ”
"Of course! The armored forces of our empire are the most powerful ground forces in the world, and the backward and poor China Army will not be our opponent at all! They will soon all be completely conquered by the forces of our empire, or they will be killed! ”
"That's right! Well said! Morida-kun, why don't we now compete to see who kills the most of the Chinese army! What do you think? Whoever loses will be given a hundred oceans! ”
"No problem, I must have won, didn't you see how many of those armies I just killed with one shot? Hahaha! Kitano-kun, just wait and count the money for me! ”
"Yo Si! Morida-kun, our game hasn't started yet! The winner is not scored! And who's afraid of whom! Even if I lose to you, I can't get back the money I lost from those chinas, hahaha! I have nothing to lose, and I will even be able to get more wealth and women from those weak Shina people! ”
The Japanese officers and soldiers inside these two Japanese tanks and armored vehicles were also laughing unscrupulously and betting......
"Shoot!"
At this time, Wang Changgui, who had already properly aimed at the two Type 95 tanks of the Japanese army, immediately gave the order to shoot.
"Bang! Bang! Bang......"
With a powerful recoil force on the shoulder of the butt, a mushroom-headed bullet immediately flew out of the 13mm Mauser M1918 anti-tank rifle in the hands of Wang Changgui and his subordinates, and hit the Japanese tanks and armored vehicles.
