Chapter 13: Narrowly Won
The girls' eyes widened for a moment when they saw the huge muzzle with the brakes.
Sun Hui watched the muzzle of the black hole facing him, and his heart also hung up.
Looking at the caliber of this gun, I am afraid that it will surpass the 88 mm main gun of the "Tiger" tank......
"Hit him! Brother Sun! Wang Linlin shouted.
Just as she shouted, Sun Hui had already finished aiming, and at this moment, he saw a cloud of smoke with dark red flames spewing out from the muzzle of the opponent's cannon.
Almost at the same time, Sun Hui also pressed down the artillery lever.
Sun Hui clearly saw that the two huge shells were whistling towards each other, and the shells fired by the other party hit the hull of the "KV-1" tank first, and there was a violent vibration again, and Sun Hui was also shocked to the side, making him almost think that the tank had penetrated the enemy.
Immediately after that, there was an explosion in the distance, and Sun Hui immediately rushed back to the scope to observe, only to see that the German self-propelled gun was turning backwards, and beside it, a German tank was spontaneously burning - it seemed to be a "No. 3" tank, which should be the escort of the self-propelled gun. Sun Hui's cannon didn't hit the self-propelled gun, but he hit it by magic.
"Why can't you walk?" Du Lili screamed in panic. She stepped on the gas pedal hard, but the tank didn't move forward.
"Chu Chu! Armor-piercing bullets! Fast! Sun Hui yelled anxiously.
Ye Chuchu woke up from the panic with a roar from Sun Hui's roar, and immediately loaded the shell into the barrel, Sun Hui turned the turret and tried to aim at the retreating German self-propelled gun, the German self-propelled gun's action was very flexible, and at the same time as retreating, he completed the re-aiming, and fired another shot at the "KV-1" tank, but this time the position was a little off, and the shell hit the edge of the "KV-1" turret and bounced off, although it did not cause a big shock like the last shelling, but it still scared the girls enough.
In the moment when the tank body was re-stabilized, Sun Hui opened fire.
Everything seems to have slowed down (there is a saying that the artillery of the "KV" series of tanks has a slow rate of fire, and people can run and chase after the shells are fired), Sun Hui clearly saw that the shells he fired flew straight towards the German self-propelled gun, drilled into its huge turret, and the turret exploded all at once, for a while steel flowers splashed, flames flickered, and then there was a more violent explosion, flames and smoke surrounded the entire hull.
Sun Hui let out a sigh of relief after making sure that the enemy's chariot had been destroyed, only to realize that his forehead was already dripping with cold sweat.
"The enemy is coming! Blow us up with grenades! Shoot them with machine guns! Ye Chuchu shouted, took a "Bobosha" and opened the top cover of the turret, leaned out, and then there was the sound of "Tututu" submachine gun fire.
At this time, Wang Linlin and Du Lili also saw the enemy, and opened fire with vehicle-mounted machine guns, and for a time there were gunshots and girls' shouts, and occasionally Germans screamed.
"Sweet! Load me up with grenades! Sun Hui stared at the scope and saw the ambush position of the German infantry - a trench hidden with dead branches and thatch, where there was an MG42 general-purpose machine gun, which was constantly pouring tongues of fire into the "KV-1" tank.
The terrible firepower of this machine gun is not something that these girls who have only been on the battlefield for a day can suppress, under a series of bullets and fires, the girls can't raise their heads, screaming constantly, Sun Hui turned the turret hard, and shot out after Xiao Tiantian finished loading.
This time he fought with great ease and accuracy, and the grenade exploded in the enemy's position, blowing the machine gun into parts in one fell swoop, and the German machine gunners were blown away. Without the cover of machine guns, the German infantrymen who rushed to the front of the "KV-1" tank fell to the ground one after another under the fire of the girls' on-board machine guns and submachine guns, and most of the grenades they threw exploded next to the tank.
After Sun Hui destroyed the machine gun position of the German infantry, he opened artillery bombardment one after another at the German infantry who rushed up, helping the girls to fight, the lethality of the grenade to the German infantry was very terrible, the German soldiers who lost cover suffered heavy casualties under his shelling, and after a while, the German attack was completely stopped, and the "KV-1" tank was covered with corpses.
Despite the fact that the enemy had fallen, the girls did not stop firing, and after firing a large circle around, even in the trees and bushes, they realized that there was no enemy left, and they stopped.
"Why can't the tank move! - Du Lili cried and kicked in a little breakdown, she had killed many Germans with a machine gun in the battle just now, but she was also terrified by this bloody battle scene.
"It was the tank tracks that were interrupted." Ye Chuchu cautiously leaned out of the turret, looked down, and quickly shrank back.
Hearing that the tank tracks were interrupted, Sun Hui secretly complained that if any more enemies came to attack, then they would become a live target.
After almost half an hour, no one really came to "disturb" again, so Sun Hui had the courage to take a "Bobosha" and came to the outside of the tank to check the damage to the tank.
Sure enough, as Ye Chuchu said, the right track of the "KV-1" tank was broken, and there was also an obvious bullet mark on the hull.
He walked briskly past the corpses on the ground and ran towards the burning wreckage of the German self-propelled gun.
He wanted to know what was it that made their "KV-1" tank so bad.
After a while, Sun Hui came to the wreckage of the German self-propelled gun, at this time, the upper part of the German self-propelled gun had been blown up to the twisted and broken, and the thick barrel was also lifted to the side, without its original might.
Although the German self-propelled artillery had beaten him out of shape, Sun Hui still recognized its identity.
This turned out to be a "fat Marx"!
It is said that only 2 of these vehicles grew in total, and all of them disappeared into the war, leaving only a few photographs.
Since the mid-30s, German technicians have been experimenting with equipping vehicles with heavy artillery in order to increase the mobility of artillery, and various self-propelled guns that have appeared later are the product of such attempts. In September 39, the German top brass instructed Krupp to develop a heavy self-propelled gun with a 105 mm or 128 mm gun to deal with enemy tanks and fortifications. At the beginning of 41, Krupp produced 2 prototypes and showed them to Hitler on March 31. Hitler was very satisfied with this, and at one time ordered to equip the German army with a heavy self-propelled anti-tank gun, and in addition to the 105-mm gun model, a 128-mm gun model should be developed, and the 105-mm self-propelled anti-tank gun had to be put into service in the spring of 42. But later this program was abandoned, and the production of subsequent vehicles did not continue.
