In the rain, Carl? Wegener fired his 10th shell, and he has almost fifty percent of the hits today, which means that he has destroyed 5 Soviet tanks.

Three of these tanks were elite T-34 tanks, which posed the greatest threat to their crew, and the rest were faster T-26 tanks.

The battle had already begun for more than half an hour, and the Soviets were still attacking desperately, as if they were not tired.

From time to time, shells fell near the tanks, and the Soviets were also looking for a way to get rid of the German Leopard tanks in front of them as soon as possible.

If you can't force a breakthrough with tanks, then use artillery to destroy it. Anyway, the Germans did not have air superiority on rainy days and could not suppress the Soviet artillery in the first place.

A Leopard tank had been destroyed by a howitzer shell like a dead mouse, and Wittmann's tank was retreating, and the battle was still raging.

"Phew!" A shell struck the front armor plate of the Wittmann car, and the cannon sank so hard that the Leopard tank shuddered.

Obviously, this is not a small-caliber gun like the T-26 tank, but a 76.2 mm caliber shell that the T-34 tank is equipped with.

Although it did not hit the front armor of the Leopard tank, it also caused everyone in the tank to panic for a moment.

Their Leopard tank is still an old model with a gasoline engine, and if it is really penetrated, it is likely to suddenly have an incendiary explosion.

Fortunately, after a simple confirmation, they knew that their tank had not been penetrated and could still continue to fight.

More and more Leopard tanks are being produced, and with them reliability, after more than 1,000 units have been produced, every step of the production of this tank has been perfected.

In this case, repair and maintenance are very convenient, the car condition is also better, and the probability of failure is lower.

This is consistent with the superiority of the T-34 tank in real historical time and space - the simpler the thing, the more it is produced, and the more reliable it is.

So, although a shell hit the front armor plate of the German tank, the Leopard did not fail to stall.

The tank was still slowly retreating, and the gearbox was still performing well, allowing the heavy tank to move backwards little by little.

"The enemy is very close to us...... If we don't know, we might be shot through! While reversing, the driver Duke said nervously.

The T-34 tank traveled quite fast, which made it difficult for the Leopard to escape from the pursuit of the Soviet tanks by reversing.

Now the battle has reached a fever pitch, and quite a few German tanks have been hit by Soviet tanks. Several tanks had been destroyed and burned, looking very bad.

At this time, the Soviet tank units also showed their inherent strength and ferocity, fearless of death, desperately approaching the positions of German tanks.

"The smoke bombs don't work very well, it's rainy weather, and the smoke disperses too slowly!" After trying to cover with smoke grenades and then change the formation, Gun Commander Wegener also said helplessly.

Fighting and retreating while fighting is the strength of German tanks, but when facing Soviet tanks that are four times or more than their own, German tanks are also a little overwhelmed.

"Aim! Stop the car! Fire on the spot! Kill as many Soviet tanks as you can! Cover the retreat of friendly forces! Weitman grabbed the wet hat from the top of his head and shouted through gritted teeth.

Who doesn't have three points of wolf nature, and who doesn't have three points of fire? The battle has been fought like this, and Wittman is ready to fight for his honor.

"The Führer's tank crews, they must fight until the last moment!" He lifted the hatch above his head, leaned out half of his body, and commanded his tank in the rain.

"Front left! Soviet tanks! It's the T-34! Wreck it first! Squinting at the distant figure of a Soviet tank in the rain, Wittman shouted loudly as he pressed the throat intercom.

Wegener kept his eyes on the scope and held down the turret's rotation button until he saw the target in the eyepiece, then he let go of his fingers.

The tank's gun was basically pointed at the target, and Wegener used the crank to point the turret at the T-34 tank, which was spotted by Weitmann.

Then he adjusted the high and low firing angles of the gun, and then pressed the fire switch. A shell flew out in response, blowing a cloud of white smoke from the muzzle.

In the next second, the T-34 tank in the distance was hit by something, and it exploded all at once, and a huge explosion blew off the turret of the tank, and the people inside were also blown into the sky.

Despite the rain overhead and the bullets that might fly, Wittman still searched for the T-34's target in the rain, like a knight, prancing forward with his head held high against the enemy's spear.

The rain ran down his chin and fell under his collar, above the Iron Cross, a fine knight's Iron Cross, which General Guderian had just presented to him for his outstanding combat performance.

Now, this medal is spurring him to fight to the end for his country. When he saw the target, he shouted and said, "Keep left!" We have a lot of enemy tanks on our left flank! ”

Wegener continued to adjust his gun, aiming at the Soviet tank that was detouring in the distance, and then he calmly opened fire, piercing the side armor of another T-26 tank at once.

The shells easily shredded the T-26's paper-fragile side armor and turned the tank into a ball of flames that did not go out in the rain.

Without even adjusting the artillery, Wegener saw another Soviet tank through the sight, and he did not hesitate to rotate the turret while waiting for the time to reload.

The loader, Homan, had already slipped an armor-piercing shell into the chamber of the gun, and then he gently tapped Wegener on the shoulder, giving the other man a signal that he had finished loading.

Wegener stopped the turret spin and continued to fire, hitting another advancing T-26 tank at once.

After more than an hour of fighting, Wegener had figured out how to fire in rainy weather, so the accuracy of the hit was rising in a straight line.

Another thing that affected his shooting accuracy was the distance between the two sides. Soviet tanks were already too close, approaching to a distance of about 500 meters.

At this distance, it was already possible for the T-34 tank to destroy the side armor of the Leopard tank, so the Wittmann crew was very dangerous at this moment.
