Chapter 589: Ambush

Whether it was British infantry or tanks, under the fire of the German No. 3 tank, they were scrapped, wounded, dead, and fled.

The No. 3 tank driven by Karyus turned the turret, and the barrel was aimed at Churchill, who was moving at high speed to the left, and with a flash of fire, a loud bang, and the shells flew towards the tank, which had already run about 30 meters away.

"Boom!" The flames of the explosion instantly enveloped it, enveloping it.

Just when Karyus thought that the tank had been destroyed, he found that the tank continued to drive steadily out of the smoke.

Karyus was stunned when he saw this, and then hurriedly said, "Quick, change the armor-piercing bullet." "Just now he used high-explosive shells, because in their opinion, the British tanks are vulnerable, so they have always used high-explosive shells, but they didn't expect a tank to block this shell, so they hurriedly replaced them with armor-piercing shells.

In fact, because of the distance, and the fact that Caljuus was targeting, they were targeting an upgraded Churchill infantry tank of the A22 type. This prototype was only built in March, and there are only 14 infantry tanks in the whole of the United Kingdom, which are indeed more resistant than the A20 version.

"This time it's an opponent!" Karjus said silently in his mind.

This shot did not destroy the British tank, and it was also seen by Colonel Hurd in the rear.

But he didn't think it was too strange, after all, although Britain's scientific and technological foundation is not as good as Germany, which is advancing by leaps and bounds under the guidance of the Führer, but in general it is not bad, and it is not impossible to build a tank that cannot be penetrated by a single shot of tank No. 3.

And this upgraded version of the Churchill infantry tank, it is indeed thickened in armor, but the firepower is not much improved, this is the British previously developed a tank specifically to deal with the German No. 3 tank, in all aspects of performance compared to the German No. 3 tank.

Unexpectedly, when the Germans had already mass-produced the No. 5 tank, this upgraded infantry tank against the No. 3 tank had just been designed and put into production.

And it wasn't until the Germans landed that the first batch of 14 A22 tanks rolled off the production line.

However, Karyus did not think that this tank was very powerful, and he did not pay attention to this tank at all. No matter how much the armor was thickened, the upgraded British infantry tank here did not pose much of a threat to the No. 3 submersible modified tank in terms of firepower.

Of course, the British driver on the opposite side could also see that the German tank was using a high-explosive shell instead of an armor-piercing shell, so they did not let their guard down because their shot was not defeated.

The battle between the two sides was about to break out, and after replacing it with armor-piercing shells, Karjus tried to shoot at the British tank, trying to pierce it with one shot, but the British were not stupid, the British tank used his mobility to loop left and right, and several attempts by Karjus's gunners to aim ended in failure.

"It seems that the enemy is not so simple, interesting!" Karjus said to himself that for him, he would prefer his enemies to be stronger than vulnerable. After all, there was no way to stimulate his adrenaline.

Karyus, who had twice asked to join the army when he was in middle school, but was unable to enlist because he was underweight, was not so thin on the surface, but very patriotic and belligerent.

It can be said that the prototype of the movie "Captain Germany" is based on a soldier like Karyus.

And now, the strength of the enemy has completely aroused Karyus's desire to fight, and he has become excited.

He first instructed the driver to accelerate in the opposite direction, and drove towards the left front of the British tank, in the process the British tank kept shooting at the Karyus crew, but the crew used the fast and slow speed change of march, and successfully dodged one by one.

Among them, several shots were almost insignificant, and even Colonel Hurd, who was in the distance, sweated for Karjus when he looked at the tanks of the Karjus crew in the telescope.

This skirmish of tanks is almost over, except for Karjus, who is still entangled with one of the best A22 British tanks.

However, Karjus ultimately lived up to his expectations and was not hit.

Suddenly, the No. 3 tank of the Karjus crew made a brake loop and circled the left flank of the British tank, while the muzzle of the No. 3 tank was pointed right at the left side of the upgraded infantry tank.

"Here's your chance!" Karjuus was ecstatic.

"Launch!"

Then there was a bang, and the flames erupted from the hatch, and thick smoke billowed out of the barrel, which looked small, and soon the body of the upgraded Churchill infantry tank was also on fire.

The remaining 4 A20 British infantry tanks, seeing that the new Churchill tank had also been destroyed by the Germans, panicked and accelerated and fled.

Seeing this, the remaining tanks of the German armored company also had a great boost in morale, and they were not willing to lag behind and chased the British tank units to open fire.

"Boom!" Another shell exploded next to an escaped Churchill tank, breaking its tracks.

Although the British crew in it is fine, the real tank with broken tracks is not like in the game, and it can be repaired on the spot and can be restored in a few seconds.

On the battlefield, as long as the tank track is broken, the polite crew members can only obediently stay in place to operate the turret, and when the battle is over, climb out of the tank to repair the track.

Or, abandoning the tank and running away, is also a possibility.

However, the Germans did not even give them a choice, and the German infantry, which coordinated the attack, quickly rushed forward and captured the British armorers, who had no resistance to resist.

The tanks sent by the British army to serve as cannon fodder in this feint attack were not too many, only 20. After removing the few that had just been destroyed and the damage in the first round of attacks, there were only three left, and these three tanks that had fled far away now had reason to withdraw in the direction of London.

They struggled, but failed. Heavy losses, long overdue retreat!

The No. 3 tanks were still slowly moving along the field, chasing the fleeing British tanks.

Caljuus was now leaning on the turret, vigilantly looking ahead with a telescope.

Soon a whole line of British convoys appeared on the road, perhaps the troops who had come to cover the retreat of the tank troops, and his intuition told Calyus that this was a golden opportunity!

On the other side, the British drivers were just chatting at the back of the convoy parked at the entrance of the village, waiting to meet the retreating troops.

Suddenly, they heard a loud roar of engines approaching at a rapid pace.

While the British drivers were still in a daze, a huge steel monster with an Iron Cross logo ran over the bushes and rushed onto the road, it was a modified No. 4 submersible tank!

It seems that Colonel Hurd of the German army, in addition to sending Karjus's armored company, has made other preparatory arrangements!

At the same time, Karyus spotted several British tanks deployed on his left, on the street at the entrance of the village!

These tanks were clearly not the British troops who had just fled, but were newcomers.

"Turn left!" The massive body of the No. 3 tank slammed into the street.

"Fire!" The 50-mm 42-fold tank gun made a loud noise, which shocked the whole village, and a British M5A1 light tank in the street immediately jumped into the air and exploded like a rabbit hit by a shotgun.

The M5A1 light tank is an imported tank that Churchill bought from the United States, although the quality is not high, but after all, it is born out of nothing.

This light tank has only one spare crew. Moreover, the fuel tank and engine are exposed, which is very easy to catch fire. The point is that, like the American 37mm cannon, the AP bullet does not have any filler, which means that the American bullet imported with the M5A1 tank often cannot be broken when penetrating other vehicles.

The duel between this tank and the German army's reconstructed and strengthened No. 3 and No. 4 tanks is almost equivalent to a blatant head-off.

But if the British were to produce their own, they would not be able to build more tanks in the short term.

If you don't even have tanks, you can't mention anything else.

In the face of these "head dogs" from the United States, Karjus's loaders skillfully loaded the shells again and again: "Reloaded!" "Reloaded!" "Reloaded!"

"Shoot!" Immediately afterwards, 3 American light tanks also turned into a pile of burning scrap metal.

Behind the British was an upgraded version of the A22 Churchill infantry tank, commanded by Captain Daias, who reversed in an emergency backwards under cover from the smoke of the three American light tanks in front of him.

"Crash off the wall!" The A22 tank slammed its tail into a house on the side of the street, and with a loud noise, Captain Dias hid behind a broken wall after collapsing three buildings.

Unfortunately, Karyus just happened to spot the fattest fish that slipped through the net and ordered his No. 3 tank to pursue it.

As he continued his way through the wreckage of the burning M5A1 tank towards the western end of the village, he drove right to the side of the British Daias crew.

Because the A22 tank was hiding behind a broken wall, Calyus, who rushed here, did not find it in the first place.

"Shooting !!" Captain Dias shouted through gritted teeth.

Tomorrow night 3 watch, here for the time being, 1 watch. In addition, thanks to the support of the book's tearless lazy worm, Flying Fish will add more to make up for later.
