Chapter 719: Ambush and Being Ambushed

Could it be that the British found out that there was an ambush here? When he saw that the British were about to enter his encirclement, but stopped advancing, the company commander Seg Vari wondered very much, if the other side discovered his ambush circle and refused to enter, then he would have to go out to fight.

Of course, no matter how they fight, Varui will not be afraid, after all, their tanks have full performance advantages, but the opponent's tanks are quite fast.

Their own wheeled infantry fighting vehicles can run faster than the opponent's tanks, but the Panther 3 is different, a huge combat vehicle of more than 40 tons, even if it has a diesel engine with a power of 730 horsepower, Varui is not confident that it can race them here.

Therefore, if Wari takes the initiative to attack, he can achieve results, but he can't completely destroy them, and there will definitely be a bad luck in the future, and he can't catch up!

The order received this time was to destroy all these British tanks, and as long as one was released, it would not be considered a victory.

In this case, Vari could not act rashly, their tanks were started, accelerated, and it took time.

At this time, on the wheeled reconnaissance vehicle running in front, Locke also found out that something was wrong, why didn't those Britons run away?

In his heart, that uneasy thought also popped up, could it be that these Britons knew that there was an ambush ahead?

No, the British must be brought in! This is my own duty! Locke shouted at the driver, "Stop, wait until I kill them again!" ”

Stop the car! The wheeled reconnaissance vehicle came to a quick stop, and this time, Locke held his breath and took aim again.

The time ahead, it was too enjoyable.

This 40 mm Bofors anti-aircraft gun, in his turret, originally had enough ammunition, up to 110 rounds, but as he continued to fire, and it was a continuous strafing, the shells were constantly being consumed.

Until now, there are still fifty shells in his turret, but the forty rounds in the back are all grenades, after all, their kind of combat vehicle is versatile, and it is impossible to load all armor-piercing shells, and that is not their task.

And now, he only has ten armor-piercing bullets, the first five are pure steel-core armor-piercing bullets, and even a tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullet is mixed in the middle, but the next five rounds are armor-piercing incendiary shells, and the armor-piercing ability is not strong.

You can't waste the shells, you have to shoot them accurately!

He took aim quickly, and then, just as he stepped on the trigger, he saw the tank on the opposite side, and the hull suddenly shook!

The sight, the higher the magnification, the smaller the field of view, and now he is aiming at the opponent's hull, and he does not see black smoke coming out of the opponent's muzzle. But he was also able to guess that the other party had already opened fire!

"Quick, accelerate!" Locke knew that he was dancing on the tip of a knife now, and the opponent's 57mm tank gun was definitely more powerful than his 40mm gun, and as long as he took one shot, he would be finished.

Almost as soon as the vehicle started, he opened fire.

40 mm armor-piercing shells, strafing the tank that fired at him from behind!

The first few shots were all missed! Originally, he had already taken aim, but as his vehicle started, it was all in vain, but then, he adjusted the impact point, the shell, and whistled towards the tank!

"Boom!" A shell fell right on the main armor in front, this time, it was not powerful enough and did not penetrate the main armor of the opponent, but then, on the main armor of this tank, flames appeared.

The incendiary agent burned rapidly, as if a torch had been lit, and then, the second and third, whatever fell on it, all of them burned!

In front of the entire tank, smoke and dust billowed and flames jumped several meters high!

The crew of this tank panicked.

The driver was the first to push open the hatch at the top, which was now full of flames, and he gritted his teeth and jumped from the inside of the fire to the outside.

"Ahh He rolled on the ground and screamed.

"This damn German armored car, it must be completely destroyed!" The commander of the 3rd company was completely furious, his soldier was being destroyed by the other party, and he was actually going to stop because of a small mechanical failure!

Rush!

No longer bothering about the overheating tips of the engine, the Crusader tank, frantically pounced!

The wheeled reconnaissance vehicle in front of it was running wild again, and if you look at it from the air, it looks like a pack of wolves, chasing a prey, but they don't know that they have entered the hunter's trap!

The remnant sun is like blood.

Just before the sun was about to set, Crowley's 6th Royal Panzer Regiment slowly drove to the rear of the German Panzer Corps station.

Standing on his turret, Crowley could already see through the distance with a telescope.

The other party has no defense.

This is a normal garrison of armored troops.

It can be seen that the tanks are scattered and scattered, and the refueling trucks are next to them, refueling the tanks, and at the same time, several tankmen are lining up and are loading ammunition from the ammunition trucks in turn.

And not far away, there was another tank, the track was broken, several crew members were repairing, and the tankman who picked up the sledgehammer fell from his forehead with beads of sweat falling down drop by drop.

In the distance, the Germans arranged several tanks to guard, but the direction of their alert was northeast, and now, their own side is coming in a circle from the southwest, here, for the Germans, is the rear!

Columns of smoke from the cooking carts can also be seen drifting into the sky, and even the smell of toast can be imagined, spreading throughout the camp.

It's just the right time!

The Germans were not alert, and this was a great opportunity for them!

"Attention, full speed ahead! Rush to a distance of five hundred meters and hit the back of German tanks! Crowley shouted over the radio, "For the sake of the British Empire, rush!" ”

Rush!

One by one, the Crusader tanks are running at full power, emitting puffs of black smoke, and they are attacking at full speed! With their strong engines and weak weight, they will soon reach speeds of more than 60 kilometers per hour.

The Germans, in astonishment and trembling, wait to be punished!

The dust was rolling behind them, and one after another the tanks sprinted, and for them, the distance of these few kilometers was a short moment, and they would soon rush over.

Instead of hiding in the turret, Crowley still left half of his body exposed, which was his favorite way, and in his binoculars, he saw the panicked German tankers there.
