The T-34 tank, which uses a diesel engine, is not unfamiliar with the use of winter for the Soviets, and they are very skilled in baking the engine.

The diesel engine has the advantage of this, how to bake, it is not easy to burn, and the gasoline engine is quite terrible to bake in winter.

However, that doesn't mean there won't be accidents.

When their tank drove here, the tank broke down a little bit, and waited for the repair vehicle behind to send tools, and as a result, it took three or four hours to wait!

While waiting, the cooling water of the engine froze, and when they were surprised to find that it was too long and wanted to start the tank to warm up, they found that the engine had been completely scrapped.

In this era, there is no coolant, it is the most common cooling water, the temperature is below zero degrees will freeze, and when it freezes, it will expand, and as a result, the cylinder liner of the engine will freeze and rot, and the cylinder block needs to be replaced!

This is a complete nest.

This T-34 tank, which belongs to the newest tank equipped with the troops, must not be thrown into the field like this, so they waited for the trailer to come and tow the tank back.

After two days, it was said that the trailer was ambushed and destroyed, and they still had to wait for the subsequent trailer.

Fortunately, there was diesel fuel left in the tank, and they poured diesel fuel on a dead branch, lit a fire, and began to heat up, and it was freezing cold, and if you didn't pay attention, it would easily freeze.

"What a hell of a place to be." By this time, the snowflakes had stopped, but there was still a whining wind, blowing the branches, constantly rolling up the snow on the ground, making them feel even more cold.

"Actually, if we find another T-34 tank, we can tow us back." One of the loaders said it was too cold, and he continued to set up firewood on the campfire.

"How is that possible, it is said that the losses at the front are not small, the Finns are still stubborn, and the tanks are not enough for the front line, how can they come and drag us."

The commander said helplessly.

That's true.

On the battlefield, the first thing to pursue is victory in battle.

For tank troops, if a tank has a mechanical failure, don't think about relying on other tanks to help, let alone imagine that there will be comrades left behind to take care of themselves, they will solve it by themselves!

There are often lone tanks, and it is impossible to take care of one tank and take another tank in order to repair the tank themselves and then return to the army alone.

"We have to guard against the Finn guerrillas, and targets like ours are the easiest targets for the guerrillas." The commander continued.

When they found that the tank could not move, they removed the machine gun from the tank and kept it handy, ready to go, just to prevent accidents.

In fact, the commander also knew that extinguishing the bonfire would prevent it from being discovered by the Finnish partisans, but if the bonfire was extinguished, they would all freeze to death.

"Buzz, buzz." At this moment, on the road behind, the sound of the engine sounded, and with the sound, the ground seemed to tremble.

"It's our troops coming, take a look, see if it's our tank recovery vehicle!"

The other side does not have lights, driving in a war zone, you can't turn on the headlights, and at the same time, there is snow everywhere now, so it is not so dark at night, and the snow will reflect and shine around.

"Hey, we're here!" The loader shouted loudly, and as soon as he finished shouting, he was reprimanded by the commander: "Take up your arms and prepare!" ”

Get ready? What to prepare? It's obviously coming from behind you, and it's the sound of the engine, it's not your own rescue vehicle, is it still a Finn?

"It's too loud, it's not like a rescue vehicle, you listen." As he spoke, the commander picked up the machine gun he had removed from the tank and lay down on the snowdrift.

"Extinguish the campfire." As soon as he turned his head, the campfire was still burning, and now, it had to be extinguished!

The gun commander kicked the snow next to him, which was quickly extinguished, picked up another machine gun, and lay down next to him.

It's so cold!

A few minutes later, in their field of vision, they finally saw a big guy in motion, not the usual T-26 turned waste into treasure and converted tank recovery vehicle, but a much larger guy!

What's that? If it starts, these machine guns of your own side are useless at all, only the main guns of your own tanks can destroy the opponent, but unfortunately your engine is broken and has no power, so do you use your hands to shake the turret? Now, no one would have the courage to burrow into that icy lump of iron.

"It's a KV-1 tank recovery vehicle!" The gunner's eyes were the best, and he finally saw clearly.

The KV-1 tank, which is a heavy tank, was also destroyed by the Finns in the last battle, and this kind of tank, which has no speed and no protection, is no longer popular.

Improvements continued, and the previous tanks, damaged on the battlefield, were towed back, and some were converted into tank recovery vehicles.

On the rescue vehicle, a voice came from afar: "Hey, it's cold, hurry up, be quick!" ”

Although the rescue vehicle is here to rescue on the battlefield, in this kind of weather, people will always complain.

The commander of the ambulance shouted to this side while pouring vodka into his mouth that he had already seen the broken down T-34.

The KV-1 tank recovery vehicle, getting closer and closer, began to drift on the snow when it was about to come close to the tank on this side.

Lao Maozi's tanker has always been rough in his driving style.

Pulling the lever on one side, the track braked, and the tank came with a dashing floating tail on the road, and actually gave a 180-degree turn.

Next, pull the cable, hook up, and tow this tank back!

In later generations, when the tank was designed, it needed to have outstanding battlefield repair capabilities, such as the entire power module, which could be replaced in a few minutes using a crane.

But not now, this maintenance will take at least a day or two to complete, and the field repair is uncomfortable, so it is better to drag it back.

The commander and the others, who were on guard in the snowdrift, stood up and ran over quickly, ready to hook up and drag the tank back, and finally waited!

"Let's take a bite." The commander of the tank recovery vehicle shouted, and he raised the vodka in his hand high.

"Boom!" At this moment, suddenly, there was a noise nearby, and they were immediately attracted by the sound, and when they turned their heads, they saw a blazing flame in their eyes!

At a distance, that is, about a hundred meters, looking at the fire, it doesn't look like an anti-tank gun, but like a recoilless gun!

"Attention, there are guerrillas!" Before the commander's words were finished, from the other direction, a dense number of bullets were fired!
