Chapter 458: Accuracy is "Amazing"
It didn't take long, and the retreat from the front immediately made de Gaulle angry. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Stop retreating, whoever retreats again, military law will do it!" De Gaulle screamed like a rooster on the radio.
Dare to retreat, only to be destroyed by a tank, and to be afraid? At this time, it is completely possible to rush up and crush those Germans!
At this time, seeing that the German tanks on the opposite side are about to come up, if they don't work hard, then the situation will be reversed!
De Gaulle shouted, trying to stop the retreat of the S-35 tanks in front.
"Boom!" At this moment, the second explosion came out again.
The Germans had never forgotten the war all these years, and they had been preparing, especially the Waffen-SS, which was more well trained.
The gunner on the motorcycle, enduring the sharp pain in his ears, after completing the first fire, the assistant on the side quickly reloaded, and he opened fire again.
This time, the shell hit the frontal armor of the opposing tank directly. It's the same as hitting the side, it didn't take much effort, and the other party was directly opened.
However, when the second cannon sounded, his ears could not hear anything.
With a pair of ears, you can get enough time!
De Gaulle's order of military justice frightened the panzers, but just as they were about to muster up their strength to move on, a second cannon shot made their confidence disappear.
Rushing up is to die! Especially in the second shelling, the howl and screams of the hit tank came from the radio, which irritated their eardrums even more.
They don't care about any orders anymore, military justice is engaged? Then you have to go back alive, and now like this, if you continue to move forward, you will definitely not survive, and it is not so fun to be burned to death.
Seeing that the tanks in front of him were no longer moving, despair flashed in De Gaulle's eyes, but then, they brightened again.
"Aim for the bridge and shoot a grenade!" De Gaulle shouted.
Although the FT17 tank is a light tank, after all, it is the goods of the First World War, and the speed is even slower, only his B tank, which is behind the S-35 tank.
However, looking at the opposite side, the tanks of the Germans have already begun to go to the bridge, so they have no hope of capturing the bridge, and the only way is to destroy it!
Grenade shooting! When I heard his order, there was a moment of confusion in the S-35 tank in front of me.
What the? Now inside the barrel is an armor-piercing shell!
The S-35 was the fastest, so they would approach the German tanks first, and although their tank guns were not suitable for tanks, they were still equipped with armor-piercing shells, and in order to fire at the first opportunity, the commander of almost every tank had already ordered to be loaded with armor-piercing shells.
Now you want to change the grenade?
The tank crews of the S-35 began to change shells in a hurry, and the lack of training was undoubtedly evident at this time.
If it is an experienced tank commander, he will immediately shoot this armor-piercing shell out, and then reload the grenade, after all, it is much easier to shoot the shell out than to withdraw the shell.
To what extent are they untrained? Up to now, some tankers have not fired live ammunition, only training shells, artillery shells are too expensive, and defense funds have been spent on repairing the Maginot Line.
In their scrambling, the Type B tank behind them began to carry out De Gaulle's orders.
The B tank, with a 75 mm turret gun, is only 17 times the diameter, which is relatively short, but this short gun, which is used to fire grenades, is more suitable.
Under his order, more than 20 Type B tanks stopped advancing, and their tracks glided on the dirt on the ground, dragging half-meter-long marks before they stopped.
Reload grenades!
"Turn 3 degrees to the left." A commander gave the order to his driver.
The 75 mm howitzer at the front end of the hull is the most suitable, however, because it is fixed to the hull, it can only be operated in pitch, not from side to side, which is far less easy than the tank gun on the turret, it requires the cooperation of the driver.
To this end, the French mechanics designed a unique steering system for the car, in which the driver controls an elaborate "Nidel" hydraulic differential through the steering wheel, which can obtain an arbitrary turning radius on any of the gears and can be fine-tuned, so that the driver can use the "Nidel" system to accurately adjust the gun's firing range.
However, this requires close cooperation from all crew members.
The driver stepped on the accelerator and began to steer, but this time the steering came down and passed again, so he had to adjust again.
While they were still adjusting their firing elements, on the opposite side, the German Panther 3 tank was already rumbling over!
Treig stepped on the throttle to the end, now they don't care about the life of the engine in the tail, they have to be fast!
The French on the opposite side obviously wanted to attack the bridge, and if the bridge collapsed, then they would not be able to cross it in a short time.
Even if only he has one tank to pass, he can beat the French tank on the opposite side to the ass!
Compared with the French tankers, the German tankmen were extremely skilled.
Where is it manifested? For example, the current bridge.
The width of the bridge deck is almost the same as that of a tank, and if there is a slight mishap, it will fall, in which case, if it were the French, they would have to be commanded in front of it in order to be able to move slowly and leisurely, and what about Germany? Their tankmen stepped on the accelerator and flew past at high speed.
Even a slightly slower operation can have disastrous consequences.
They are quite confident!
Trigg was moving forward, and at the same time, Nespel had already given the order to his men: "One armor-piercing bullet, ready." ”
The tank was still running, the hull was still shaking, and in this case, the loader stabilized his body and stuffed an armor-piercing shell into the chamber.
"Reloaded." The loader shouted loudly.
By this time, the tank had already crossed the center of the bridge and continued to gallop forward.
"Boom, boom." On the other side, the Type B tank was already firing fiercely, and one after another 75mm high-explosive grenades flew out of the tank gun at the front of the hull and fired at the bridge on this side.
"Speed up!" Seeing the black smoke coming from the muzzle of the gun opposite, Nespel shouted loudly.
Speed up, if the bridge is blown up, they won't be able to cross!
The shells have been falling like rain!
"Tom." A shell, ten meters away from the bridge, fell into the water, and the resistance of the river was not strong enough, so that the shell did not explode at all.
"French, this is your level?" Nespel couldn't help but shout.
The shell, which was ten meters away, was already the closest, and the farthest even fell fifty meters away from the bridge.
Although the distance between the other side is still two or three kilometers, the hit rate of this grenade is definitely low enough.
Not a single shell landed on the bridge, and the splash of water everywhere was like a baptism of the bridge.
Nespel was already utterly despised at this point.
"Boom." Finally, the tracks in front of them were crushed to the head of the bridge, and they had already gotten off the bridge.
"Let the French, look at our precision!" Nespel said loudly: "Target, straight ahead, S-35 tank!" A thousand meters away! ”
As long as they get out of the way of the bridgehead and do not prevent the tanks behind from continuing to move, they can stop and fire.
At Nespel's command, the gun commander quickly pressed the button, and the hydraulically driven turret turned, and then the barrel raised at an angle, and the whole tank made a loud noise.
"Boom!" The body of the 40-ton Black Panther 3 tank trembled, and with the tremor, a 75-mm armor-piercing projectile flew over!
