Chapter 1288: Ambush
The heavy armor of the rat tank dwarfs any anti-tank fire in front of it, even the 152mm howitzer at the head of the toilet is ineffective against it.
Therefore, if you want to destroy the Mouse tank, you can only find a way from the side, or from the back.
In offensive operations, it is impossible to go around the back of the mouse tank, and in the current street fighting, there is still a chance to go around to the side.
The roads in the city of Ozad are not wide, so the German reinforcements of the tank force cannot be lined up in an attack formation like in the field, and the Tiger tanks are used to protect them outside, and the current Rat tanks are also acting alone, they can use their own 128 mm tank guns to destroy all resistance forces by hiding far away.
No point of fire could stop their attacks, and with their support, the Romanian army attacked quite effectively, and at the same time, they fought deeper and deeper.
They did not protect their two flanks, and now Kut's tank has advanced more than 200 meters more than the nearby block, and this has become a reason for being ambushed by the other side.
The opposing tank hid there, waiting for an opportunity, until the rat tank rumbled into its field of vision, and then suddenly attacked.
The Rat tank is making an emergency turn, and at the same time, inside the turret, the loader places the shell into the delivery slot.
The 128 mm shell was already quite heavy, and the Mouse tank had plenty of space inside, so the German tank designers simply designed a special reloading mechanism inside, and the loader only had to put the shell inside, and this auxiliary mechanism pushed the shell into the chamber, thus helping to increase the rate of fire. Saves loader's stamina.
Compared with the automatic loader of later generations, the failure rate will be greatly increased if the bomb type is selected and automatically loaded, which is at most a semi-automatic and is the most effective solution at present.
Almost as soon as he turned, Hans took aim quickly, and then stomped the trigger hard.
"Boom!" The 128-mm armor-piercing projectile flew by, and almost at the same time, Hans also saw the muzzle of the KV-2 tank opposite, and black smoke also came out, and the other side actually opened fire!
The 152-mm howitzer of the KV-2 tank, although the caliber is large, but the barrel is short, so the energy of the shell is not high, and Hans is fully confident that his armor can block it.
No firepower can destroy your own tanks!
Although the two sides fired at the same time, the 128 mm tank had high bore pressure and high muzzle velocity, so Hans was first in the sight and saw that the opponent's tank was hit by his own shell.
The 26.35 kg warhead smashed into the toilet head, and under the huge impact, the toilet head was knocked down before it was penetrated!
Yes, it's such a pervert, the toilet head is a tank with a big head, the turret and the hull are seriously incompatible, and it is top-heavy, and now, under the impact of this huge armor-piercing projectile, it was actually knocked open directly!
At the same time that the toilet head was knocked down, the shell also completed the penetration, and with a bang, a huge flame came out of the inside of the turret.
If it was an ordinary armor-piercing process, the detonation of the ammunition caused by the shell was spread outward at the seat of the turret, but now, because the turret has been separated from the hull, the large fireworks of the ammunition explosion burst out in an instant, incomparably hot, a unique dazzling beauty.
It's amazing!
Hans shouted happily, and by now this was finally his first most desired result, the enemy's tank!
As a tanker, their goal, of course, is the enemy's tank, those cars, anti-tank gun positions, machine gun positions, can not be regarded as equal opponents at all, only knocking out the enemy's tanks, that is considered victory.
And now, Hans was immersed in such joy, but unfortunately, this joy did not last even a second.
"Boom!" A huge crashing sound also appeared on the hull of the mouse tank, "Boom! Then there was a huge explosion, and I was actually hit!
Several members of the car were numb from the loud impact, but it was just the sound of the impact, and their lives were not in any danger.
The opponent's 152 mm tank gun cannot penetrate its own combat vehicle, and the mouse tank is invincible on the battlefield!
Schmidt in front turned the steering wheel to get the tank hull back in the right direction, the threat from the side had been eliminated, and the hull had just turned about twenty degrees, and now it needed to be turned back.
However, just as he stepped on the accelerator pedal and turned the steering wheel, he heard a rattling sound outside, but the body of the car did not follow the steering.
In an instant, he immediately let go of his foot, reset the steering wheel, frowned, and secretly screamed in his heart.
"We have a problem with our mobility and now we can't move." Schmidt shouted.
So far, he couldn't tell what the fault was, and after the report was done, Schmidt put on a special vest and helmet, pushed open the hatch above his head, and got out.
"Hey, protect the site!" Schmidt shouted to the nearby Romanian soldiers.
The German tank forces provided good fire support to the Romanian army, allowing them to greatly reduce casualties, all the way, the Romanian army was strongly supported by German tanks, and now, seeing that the German tanks were ambushed and broke down, they also immediately surrounded and formed a defensive circle outside.
Schmidt jumped out of the tank and looked at his side.
It's bad luck.
The rat tank is like an ancient samurai in armor, anyway, it has enough power, so there is protection everywhere, even if it is a track, and a layer of 60 mm thick steel plate is added to the side skirts, not to mention anti-shrapnel, it is no problem to protect against a small-caliber anti-tank shell.
After all, for the mouse tank, I'm afraid that the track is the weakness.
Ordinary shells, ineffective against it, however, 152 mm grenades, after all, are still very powerful.
This shell actually smashed right above the tail track of the tank, in the position of the driving wheel.
The armor on the outside was blown open, the driving wheels were blown up, and this rat tank was completely lying on its stomach!
The sturdy and sturdy driving wheel, which bears the role of transmitting strong torque and driving the track to rotate, is said to be impossible to break, but now, it has been exploded, and just now Schmidt started the vehicle, the driving wheel was struggling, the crack was bigger, if he was not quick to give up the start, it was likely to collapse the entire driving wheel.
