Chapter 775: Rat Tank (Plus 5)

"The king is still in the city, and the king and the queen are inspecting the city during the day." While patrolling, the Warlords instilled this fact in the soldiers on the front line.

"Behind us, there is London, our capital, for many years, we have never been beaten by the enemy, and now, we have to fight bravely to defend our capital!"

The king, right behind him, without losing an inch of land, is here, in a decisive battle with the Germans!

The news was constantly spreading over the positions, and gradually, the mood of the soldiers calmed down.

Yes, the king appeared in the city every day, and when he dug trenches, the townspeople spread like this, and even one day, the king appeared in the suburbs and dug trenches with everyone.

How could such a king abandon the city and flee?

It is the enemy who is indiscriminately propagating, and the enemy is engaged in psychological warfare, and we must not fall for the enemy!

It's just that the other side is shouting like this all night, which can't help but be a little annoying.

With this high pitch, no one can fall asleep.

When the day came, when the sun appeared in the east, almost everyone looked at the opposite side with red circles under their eyes, the Germans, were they going to fight fatigue tactics?

But, throughout the day, there was nothing but shouting from the Germans!

Another day passed, and from day to night, it seemed that the Germans would only shout!

So, on this night, most of the soldiers, stuffed cotton into their ears, held their weapons, fell asleep in the trenches, and if they didn't sleep again, they would have collapsed, and the Germans might have fought this idea!

This night, I slept quite comfortably, and the tension of the past few days was relieved in my sleep, but most people have their own wives, children, or parents in their sleep.

They're a little homesick.

"Boom, boom." On the other side, there was a huge roar, and with the roar, the entire ground trembled.

The sleeping soldiers were awakened one after another, rubbing their eyes, slowly poking their heads out from behind the breastwork, looking ahead, and suddenly everyone was stunned.

What is that?

A huge monster has appeared on the opposite side!

This monster looks incredibly tall, it looks like a cruiser, and it has been driven to land!

This is a tank, the overall configuration, and the tank is completely similar, with the hull below, the turret above, but, equivalent to an ordinary tank, more than doubled!

Is the entire body four meters wide?

They can only see the front, see each other's wide body, and see the tracks on the opposite side, I'm afraid it is more than a meter wide, and the height is definitely more than three meters!

How much should such a big guy weigh? More than a hundred tons for sure!

At this time, they already have an ominous premonition in their hearts, in the past two days, the Germans have been engaged in propaganda, in fact, it is all a pretext, the real purpose of the Germans is to wait for this big guy, it is simply specifically to break their own anti-tank trenches!

They can't see each other's hulls from the side, but as you can imagine, the other side's hulls are definitely quite long, long enough to easily cross their own anti-tank trenches!

At the front end of this huge tank, there were also two large iron wheels, and in the process of the wheels rolling forward, there was an occasional explosion, which was a buried anti-tank mine, which was crushed by the wheels in advance.

The weapons of the Germans, which have broken the world record again and again, have also made the opponent defenseless!

This weapon, Dr. Porsche's proudest work, has been officially named the Rat Tank by the Bureau of Weapons!

The equipment generation, the finalized generation, the pre-research generation, and now, Germany's weapons and equipment have embarked on the fast track.

The Panther 3 tank, already the most powerful tank equipped by Germany, is enough to sweep the whole world, however, Germany will definitely not be satisfied.

A new generation of the Tiger tank, which was initially designed as a 45-ton tank, has the potential to be expanded to 60 tons.

In the competition for the Tiger tank, the bidding for Porsche's products failed, and Dr. Porsche, who was more open-minded than Henschel, came up with electricity to propel this cross-century creation, and as a result, mechanical failures continued.

In order to pursue the stability of the equipment, the Bureau of Weapons chose the plan of Henschel, and Dr. Porsche failed in the bid.

After the failure, Porsche is very uncomfortable, after all, as a technical maniac, the realization of his technical ideals is what he hopes for the most.

He felt that his life was worthless, and at this time, the Führer Ciric personally instructed Porsche to develop a new generation of tanks.

The initial plan of the project was a 100-ton tank!

This project made Dr. Porsche extremely excited.

You know, after the weight exceeds 50 tons, the bad mechanical transmission will be unreliable, especially the clutch device, which will be reimbursed frequently, if it is more than 100 tons, the mechanical transmission is simply impossible to adapt.

Only electric transmission will do!

Ordinary mechanical transmission, is the engine, clutch, gearbox, all the way to the driving wheels, driving the tracks.

The electric transmission, the engine is to drive the generator, and the power of the generator is transmitted to the motor, through the gear deceleration, directly drive the track, eliminating the intermediate link, no need for complex mechanical transmission devices, and naturally improving stability.

However, in the Tiger chassis, it is terrible, and the failure is constant, because Dr. Porsche can't solve the problem of heat dissipation, and the generator and electric motor are easy to burn out.

Well, now expand to a hundred tons? It's easier because there's more space in the power compartment!

At this time, the rat tank that started was twelve meters long, and half of the space belonged to the power compartment!

If it is directly driven, the diesel engine is the best choice, because the torque is large, but if you drive the generator, it is definitely the power output in the first place, so Dr. Porsche directly brought the latest 1800 horsepower Daimler-Benz DB601ARJ engine.

Yes, even the engine used in the BF109 aircraft, after further improvement, the power has finally reached the order of 1800 horsepower, and this is a liquid-cooled engine, so you don't have to worry about heat dissipation.

The engine supplies energy to the generator via an indirect gearbox, and the electricity generated by the engine is used to drive two electric motors, which drive the action gears to move the vehicle. In the test, it once ran a terrifying speed of 38 kilometers per hour. 2210
