Chapter 6: The Killing Machine

In fact, what Qin Chuan needs to be familiar with the most is the K98K rifle in his hand, after all, it is the guy who destroys the enemy and saves himself...... I'm already thinking about killing.

This may be the so-called "the one who is close to the ink is black, and the one who is close to the Zhu is red"! If the people around you don't take killing seriously, or take killing for granted or even as an honor, then you will soon be influenced and join in the ...... It's human nature, a herd animal instinct.

Qin Chuan took a moment to convince himself...... Killing an enemy on the battlefield is no big deal, even if it's to survive, he should do it.

However, subconsciously, Qin Chuan still hoped that the British could run faster, so that they would not be able to catch up with the British, and of course they would not have to fight.

But this idea is clearly not realistic...... The British tanks were so slow that both Matilda and Crusader tanks could barely reach a speed of more than a dozen kilometers per hour in the desert, and many of them had to be discarded because their engines overheated.

On the way to the march, Qin Chuan saw from time to time a few British tanks and cars that were pushed to the side of the road by the German engineers, and many of them were even mostly intact, and even the ammunition was not removed...... This made Qin Chuan a little puzzled, it only took a grenade to blow them up, why would the British army leave them so generously to the Germans?

"It's a trick of the British!" Perhaps sensing Qin Chuan's doubts, the trigger explained: "Because they know that these tanks are not fast, and at the same time we don't have more tank shells, so ...... They slow us down! ”

Qin Chuan couldn't help but let out an "oh" when he heard this, thinking about it: What if you don't blow it up? Can the Germans use it? The ammunition of the German army was completely different from that of the British army, and the tanks themselves were discarded because they could not be driven, which was a pity for the Germans to eat and discard.

Compared with the British army, the German army was a light armored division, the number of tanks was small, and Rommel's planes flew overhead from time to time to urge them forward, so they were rushing forward all the way, and the speed was naturally much faster.

So five hours later, the troops caught up with a group of British troops in front of a village.

To be precise, it was the British, knowing that they were slower than the Germans, so they left a force to intercept the Germans...... This is a tactic to hold back enemy forces.

"Prepare for battle!" The baker ordered.

Everyone grabbed their rifles in their hands and walked forward with small steps.

Soon, Qin Chuan saw that there were about a dozen of his own tanks in front of him, most of them had left the road and scattered, occupying favorable terrain and pointing their gun barrels in the same direction.

In the direction of the barrel, about a kilometer away was a group of British troops, about a thousand men, relying on thirty tanks and the ruins of an uninhabited village to form a defensive line.

The British did not shoot and did not fire, they were clearly waiting for the Germans to attack, so that they could play to the advantage of the home defense.

But this time the Germans learned smartly, and the previous battle made them know that their tanks were inferior to the enemy, and of course they would not go up again to die.

Not surprisingly, they set up anti-aircraft guns at the sound of orders...... 88MM ANTI-AIRCRAFT GUN.

Soon the battle began:

The first to fire, of course, was the 88 anti-aircraft guns, targeting British tanks and the broken wall used as a bunker.

With a loud "rumble", the British tanks were destroyed one after another, and the bunkers were blown up one by one, and the British could do nothing but bear it......

THE 88MM ANTI-AIRCRAFT GUN CAN PUNCH A BASKETBALL-SIZED HOLE IN THE FRONTAL ARMOR OF THE MATILDA TANK AT A DISTANCE OF ONE KILOMETER, BUT THIS DISTANCE IS OUTSIDE THE RANGE OF THE MATILDA TANK.

Therefore, the British were stunned by the first round of German attacks, and they never imagined that the seemingly impregnable defensive line they had laid up would collapse with a devastating blow in front of the 88 anti-aircraft guns.

"It's your credit!" The trigger said next to Qin Chuan: "Now, the battle has become simple!" ”

Qin Chuan felt a little disgusted because this seemed to be saying...... The screams of the British troops on the opposite side and the tanks that fell into the sea of fire one by one were all because of Qin Chuan.

The 30 tanks could not withstand the indiscriminate bombardment of the 88 anti-aircraft guns, and after a while, most of them were lost, and the remaining half was almost destroyed although it was not blown up, because the British tank crews had crawled out of the tanks in a panic and fled.

They did the right thing, because there was no other way to live.

If you continue to wait, you will only become a target for enemy artillery.

Flee in a tank...... The area they were in was flat, and the "Matilda" was driving slowly, so it was almost a fantasy to escape from the enemy's artillery range in time.

"Forward!" As soon as the German officer standing on the tank waved, the Germans advanced towards the British in a sea of mountains.

As before, Qin Chuan followed behind the tank with his comrades with a rifle...... Perhaps because of his previous experience, this time he was not so scared.

Soon, British bullets, shells, and anti-tank shells rained down on the tanks in front of Qinchuan.

The sound of these weapons firing at the same time was quite alarming, and the clanging of bullets ricocheting off the armor plates of the tank was clearly discernible. When firing, the flickering of thousands of barrels was clearly visible, like the flashes of a large number of small cameras.

However, the British, having lost the Matilda tank, were clearly unable to deal with the German tanks, and most of the bullets either missed or were deflected off by the tank's armor plates.

The German tanks, on the other hand, steadily moved forward, occasionally stopping to fire in the direction of the enemy, and when they fired, the recoil of the tank guns made the entire tank tremble.

"Follow me!" The trigger gave an order to Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan didn't know what was going on, but he still followed the trigger as he said.

The trigger quickly ran to the side with Qin Chuan, and then quickly hid behind the mound with a quick heel, and then immediately set up a rifle on the mound...... Several actions were integrated in one go, and Qin Chuan, who was following behind, was dazzled for a while, and secretly admired it in his heart.

Several bullets whistled past Qin Chuan's head, and Qin Chuan hurriedly lay down to hide.

While aiming at the trigger, he said to Qin Chuan beside him: "Remember, we are snipers, we don't need to charge like everyone else, we just need to enter the range and we can ......"

With a "bang", he pulled the trigger and fired a bullet.

Then he immediately got up and ran a few steps to the flank, got down again, raised his gun, and fired another bullet with a "bang......

Seeing this, Qin Chuan couldn't help but gasp, this "trigger" was a killing machine, and he had to follow him in the future.
