072 Tank No. 517 buried by rubble

The place where the explosion sounded was only separated from Li Ling by a thin layer of steel plates, and after the explosion, the speed of the car began to drop rapidly, and Li Ling obviously felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly looked behind through the periscope. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Firelight!

"It's on fire! The engine is on fire! ”

At first, I was a little puzzled why Parker, the driver who suddenly dropped the speed of the car, thought that there was some minor fault in the engine, but he didn't expect to hear Li Ling shout out something that he didn't want to hear - the engine caught fire!

"I'll get out of the car and put out the fire."

"Wait a minute!"

Seeing that Parker was about to get out of the car now, Li Ling stopped Parker and did not let Parker get out of the car immediately.

"Royce, have you found the problem, can the turret be done well?"

"I'm already working on it, I'll give it a try!"

"Hurry up, move fast!"

Royce got up from underneath and returned to his position, starting to try to turn the turret.

Woo~~~

The sound of steel grinding was unusually heavy, but the turret was indeed able to move, but it was a little difficult to move.

"It's still not good, I'll go down and take a look at ......"

"Don't look at it, we're all going to die here! Continue to the left and turn the turret sideways. Zhandong looks for a fire extinguisher, and once the turret comes sideways, you open the side door on your side and extinguish the fire immediately! Parker, keep an eye on the front and report to me as soon as you notice something is wrong! ”

Where is the time for Royce to fix it again? As long as the turret can rotate and allow the crew to extinguish the fire without getting out of the car, that's enough!

What the situation is outside, Li Ling himself can't figure it out now, he still doesn't know where the attack is coming from, and he must not easily let his comrades go out to risk at this time.

Originally, the side door of the tank turret, which had always been considered a design failure by Li Ling, did not expect it to become a lifesaver at this moment, which Li Ling never expected!

…….

"Look, it blew up, it caught fire, that tank caught fire, they stopped!"

"Hurry up, let's throw a few more grenades down, all two tied together, we're going to turn these Germans into corpses and blow up this iron guy completely!"

……

The turret turned hard and slowly, the Polish soldiers on the fortress were preparing to bombard themselves with grenades again, and the shadow of death was silently caged against the heads of the No. 517 crew.

At the moment when the Polish soldiers held the bundled grenades in their hands and were ready to pull down the pull rings, suddenly there was a piercing scream in the sky!

It's a scream that can bring infinite pressure, and it's the sound that everyone who has heard it once on the battlefield never wants to hear a second time!

It was the whistle of the JU-87 Stuka dive bomber on its fixed landing gear, the voice of the devil from the depths of hell, and it was the greatest psychological damage to the enemy.

The group of Polish soldiers who were staying on the fortress of the Northwest Gate at this moment were all defeated from the front line, and they were all too familiar with this voice, too many of their comrades died with the scream of this demon!

When they hear the sound coming from overhead, where do they have the heart to blow up a tank? One by one, they were so frightened that they hurriedly wanted to escape from the top floor of this damn fortress, and some people even fell directly in a panic!

The screams of the Stuka dive bomber and the screams of the Polish soldiers who had lost their footing instantly reached Wang Zhandong's ears the moment he opened the side hatch, followed by a black shadow falling from the sky and falling heavily on the ground behind the tank.

At this moment, Wang Zhandong and Li Ling finally figured out the enemy's location, and they were actually above their heads.

Ignoring anything else, after Wang Zhandong opened the hatch, he immediately took a fire extinguisher and sprayed fire extinguishing agent on the back of the tank that was whirring with flames.

Just as he started to extinguish the fire, several JU-87 Stuka dive bombers finally broke through the clouds and fell from the sky!

Stuka's high-speed dive gave the aerial bomb unparalleled kinetic energy, and the bomb trap detached from the plane pylons with a thunderous momentum, and smashed directly through the top floor of the fortress and smashed into the inside of the fortress!

Boom~Boom~Boom~~......

A series of explosions rang out from inside the fortress, and the Northwest Gate fortress was instantly scattered, and the majestic fortress was almost defenseless in the face of the accurate bombardment of Stuka from the sky.

Debris poured down like a torrential rain, burying Tank 517 directly below the fort almost instantly.

"Close the hatch, hurry, crouch, keep your body as low as possible, if there is a big chunk, you will be in trouble at any time!"

Everything came too suddenly, and Li Ling could only react as much as he could.

The fire of the engine has not been completely extinguished, but it seems that Wang Zhandong is no longer needed to extinguish the fire, because a large amount of rubble falling from the sky has helped Wang Zhandong complete this task.

……

When the support of the Luftwaffe finally arrived, the Polish soldiers in the fortress directly chose to surrender, they had completely lost the confidence to resist, and in the face of such a three-dimensional attack, they had no power to fight back!

In fact, the Brest Fortress was not as full of enemies as Li Ling and most of the German soldiers imagined, and the commander of the fortress defense pulled almost all the troops outside to ambush them, and the city was empty except for two armored trains and two companies.

The entire strength of the entire Brest Fortress consisted of only two infantry battalions and an engineer battalion, and the heavy firepower was even less pitiful, except for the few five artillery pieces and two armored trains, and only fifteen Renault FT-17 light tanks could be regarded as powerful.

However, although all 15 light tanks were sent out at the first time, and all of them were used together, this tank was almost completely lost in front of the German army's No. 3 and No. 4 tanks.

After the surrender of the Polish army, the German 19th Panzer Corps began to enter the fortress through two other bridges connecting the central fortress and officially took over the fortress.

This was followed by post-war clean-ups.

First of all, of course, it is necessary to go and see the tanks that were initially trapped in Terespol.

Obviously, this battle was the heaviest day of losses for the 5th Armored Regiment of the 3rd Armored Division since the beginning of the war!

In the initial battle, the tank that was hit by the ricochet generated by Li Ling's luck, the one that was blown up on the bridge, and the two tanks that were later destroyed in Terespol, the crew of the crew did not survive, three of the four tanks were completely turned into scrap metal, and the other basically lost the value of repair.

Tank No. 517, which was pulled out of the rubble, was a little luckier, there were no casualties, but the tank ......

Well, their tanks are no longer in shape, the engine is completely scrapped, and a huge city wall rock is directly above the turret, if it weren't for Li Ling's order to keep his body down as much as possible at that time, I'm afraid that Li Ling, Wang Zhandong, and Royce's heads would have been flattened like turrets。。。。。。

A dramatic ending, Li Ling felt for the first time that he was so lucky, and for the first time felt the decisive role brought by air support!
