Chapter 164: The Battle of the "Porsche Tiger"
"This time he brought a lot of high-ranking people, people from all over the world, and encountered a terrible humanoid monster attack, but they still subdued the monster and opened the ...... A gate to space? Sun Hui explained this, and his breath was instantaneous.
Hearing Sun Hui's last sentence, the girls were all stunned.
"Brother Sun, what did you say? A gate to space? Ye Chuchu asked.
"Yes, it is not only the gate of time and space, but also the source of power...... Sun Hui carefully looked at the hexagram drawn by the pencil, savoring the words, "Is it ......?"
"Brother Sun, aren't you making us happy? Can all of this really be seen in the hexagrams? Xiao Tiantian asked with some amusement.
"No, I'm not kidding, hexagrams do." Sun Hui was about to explain to them in detail, but suddenly heard a burst on the radio.
"Spot the enemy!"
"Prepare to fire!"
"The enemy has appeared!"
Sun Hui slammed into the scope, and the first thing that caught his eye was a "Tiger" tank.
To his surprise, it turned out to be a "Porsche Tiger"!
Familiar with history, he immediately understood why the "Porsche Tiger" appeared here.
The last time the special tank platoon completely annihilated four "Henschel Tigers" of the German "502" heavy armored battalion, this must have caused a violent shock in the German top bringers, causing Hitler to doubt the performance of the "Henschel Tigers." Dr. Porsche, who had a good personal relationship with Hitler, took the opportunity to turn around and sent the improved "Porsche Tigers" to the front line.
The historic Tiger was developed between Henschel and Porsche, and due to the rush of time, the prototypes of the two competing companies arrived at the Rastenburg station in East Prussia on April 19 this year, and then drove themselves to the famous Führer's stronghold, the "Wolf's Den", to be evaluated. Although the distance is close, only 11 kilometers, the two "tigers" almost stumble forward, stopping every few hundred meters. At that time, the "Porsche Tiger" was the first to get into trouble and fell into the soft mud halfway through, unable to move. Arnold enthusiastically suggested to Dr. Porsche that the "Porsche Tiger" be dragged out with the "Henschel Tiger", but was politely refused.
The next day was Hitler's 53rd birthday, and two prototypes began to show and contrast, and this time it was Henschel's turn to be unlucky. Hitler was originally scheduled to arrive at 11 a.m., but early in the morning he suddenly called for a message to be changed to 2 p.m., and Arnold was ready to take the opportunity to replace the "Henschel Tiger" with a new pair of driving wheels, but who knew that just after 10:50, before the work was completed, Hitler and Goering suddenly came to the test site in front of the hug! The Henschel company's premises were immediately in a panic, and Arnold himself stepped out to lead the workers in a rush to pack until they were covered in dirt.
Subsequently, in the first stage of the contest, the "Henschel Tiger" fell behind and was criticized by many big figures, including Hitler, and was in a precarious situation. But then there was a chance incident, Hitler sat on a whim in the "Porsche Tiger" for a circle, broke down halfway, and Hitler, who had a good personal relationship with Dr. Porsche, wanted to wait for him to be repaired before riding back, so as to give his old friend some face, but the "Porsche Tiger" was really not angry, and after an hour it still did not move, which caused Hitler to lose his temper. Since then, the "Porsche Tiger" seems to have handed in bad luck, and in the second phase of the comparative test after the "move" to the Bekaa Tank School, the "Porsche Tiger" has suffered consecutive defeats, and the situation has been completely reversed. A large part of this is due to the immaturity of Porsche's "electric drive" method, and the failure rate is too high.
Due to the relatively stable and reliable performance of the "Henschel Tiger" and the urgency of the war, the "Henschel Tiger" was finally approved for production, and Dr. Porsche, who had always been confident, had to leave with his pre-production 90 "Porsche Tiger" chassis.
After the destruction of the four "Henschel Tigers" under the city of Leningrad, although Himmler was in the forefront, Hitler was also keenly aware that the "Henschel Tigers" may have a lot of problems, so as to give the "Porsche Tiger" a chance to reappear, judging from the current situation, Sun Hui judged that it should be Dr. Porsche who suggested to Hitler that the "Porsche Tiger" should be given a chance to be tested on the battlefield, and Hitler agreed, so there was a "Porsche Tiger" in front of him today.
What surprised Sun Hui even more was that there were 8 "Porsche Tigers" in front of him! And they drive fast and steady, and the performance seems to have improved a lot.
Everyone sensed the threat of these new "Tigers", and the "Leningrad" tank was the first to fire, and the first shot directly hit the frontal armor of the "Porsche Tiger".
At this time, the distance between the two sides was about 2,000 meters, which can be said to be a bit far, but Sun Hui knew that the purpose of Andreasdorf's "Leningrad" to fire first was to give full play to the range advantage of the 85-mm gun of the "KV220" tank, and second, to take the lead in taking the lead.
The purpose of the Andreasdorf crew was obviously achieved, although this gun was not able to destroy the "Porsche Tiger", but it caused a great shock to the German army, Sun Hui saw from the scope that this "Porsche Tiger" sparked straight up, and immediately stopped advancing, obviously the power system of the "Porsche Tiger" failed again under the violent vibration produced by the shell bombardment, indicating that although the "electric drive" system of Porsche has been improved and its performance has been greatly improved, it still does not meet the requirements of actual combat.
Although this "Porsche Tiger" lay on its stomach with one shot, it did not lose its combat effectiveness, and its crew members were obviously all practitioners, and they immediately discovered where the opponent was, immediately turned the turret to aim, and fired at the "Leningrad".
The Germans' artillery shot was also extremely accurate, hitting the turret of the "Leningrad", and Ye Chuchu saw that the "Leningrad" was also splashed with steel flowers, the body of the car shook violently, and the radio was full of shouts of crew members.
Several other "Porsche Tigers" continued to push forward, and from time to time they opened fire, at which time the "Ladoga Lake" also opened fire, hitting a "Porsche Tiger" that rushed ahead, but this "Porsche Tiger" withstood the blow, and instead of lying on its stomach like its companions, it accelerated its speed and rushed forward.
"Brother Sun, do you have to wait a while before firing?" Xiao Tiantian asked a little anxiously.
"The distance is a little far, we don't have many shells, we must be accurate one by one, and we can't waste it." Sun Hui replied, his eyes still fixed on the "Porsche Tiger" rushing up.
