Chapter 82: If It's Just a Guard
Seeing their new partner, Trood was naturally very excited, if the only one who wasn't too excited was Nuttel.
"It's just that the shell is thicker" Nattle was very interested in the main gun with high penetration depth and high power, and the main armament of the G model and the previous F2 model was a 7.5 cm KwK-40 gun, which made him a little unhappy, just stared silently and watched.
"Nattel, don't stare at me, I won't let you try it." The other gunner laughed at the already fascinated Natel Dao.
Natel was poked in the sore spot, and immediately retorted loudly: "Lao Tzu is not uncommon with your broken cannon, Lao Tzu's own 43 times the diameter is enough!" ”
Standing next to the gunner was a tank destroyer No. 4 Type 75L/48 (hereinafter referred to as the Four Destroyers), whose full name was Sturmgeschütz-neuer-Artmit-7.5cm-PaK●L/48-auf-Fahrgestell-PzKpfw-IV., which was equipped with a new 75mm-PaK-39L/48 double-diameter main gun, which was the only fire system second only to the 88mm gun at this stage. In terms of penetration, it can effectively penetrate the French tank in service at a distance of 500 meters, and its Maybach-HL-120-TRM 12-cylinder engine can also provide 300 horsepower for the vehicle, which can make this quadruple faster than the previous III assault gun.
The chassis of the IV tank was chosen, a main gun was mounted on the front of the hull, and its frontal armor was strengthened, and if the defensive capability of the four destroyers was simply calculated, it was even more superior to the Trod IV G medium tank. However, due to the layout of the main gun and the heavy frontal armor, the car is somewhat top-heavy, and the balance of the vehicle is not satisfactory, and along with it is the reduction of handling and mobility.
"Hehe, just your heavy thing, I'm afraid you won't dare to brake when you drive the fastest." By Nattel's side, his nemesis, Yorkson, took a bad breath for him.
"Well done!" Nattle whispered, giving Yorkson a thumbs up.
Trode said loudly: "Okay, don't be poor, let's see if the car is faulty." ”
"Boy! You look down on me! The quartermaster pretended to be angry and said, "I have checked all these cars, we can't let you young men drive faulty cars to the battlefield, it will be no different from sending them to death." ”
Trode hurriedly apologized: "I didn't mean to say anything just now, please don't pay attention to it." If that's the case, then thank you for the old man. ”
The quartermaster glanced at him and said, "If you really want to thank me, then drive these cars"
"Don't worry, we will do our best to destroy as many enemies as possible!" Trood hurriedly received it in a confident tone.
"Hmph." The quartermaster whispered, then turned around and said, "Just don't let me be beaten up." ”
Later, Trode received today's combat mission from the herald - a little later they would escort a shipment of supplies to a small town not far from here, and spend the night there as part of the garrison there.
Alicia was a little surprised and said, "Such a simple task actually made us all dispatched? ”
Hans said slowly: "It's really hard to say, although I have observed along the way, except for the equipment, I have not found that their sense of war is strong, and the garrison of Batna in normal times is just as lazy, as if this place is not as dangerous as the legend says." However, we are new to the school, so we should be careful. ”
Vincent chuckled when he heard his words and said, "If I had to guess, the situation here will not be easier than the legendary one. And those soldiers, under such circumstances, can remain lazy and still hold the city, but it shows how capable that person named Anselm is. ”
"Is that major really that powerful?" Half of Hans's words were skeptical, the other half was admiration for Anselm.
"Who knows, but it's best to hope he's like that, after all, we don't know how long we'll be fighting here." Vincent withdrew from their conversation and turned to leave.
Trode didn't want to waste any more time here, and immediately said, "Alright, alright." Now is not the time to think about those things, after tossing this morning, my stomach is hungry, hurry up and eat lunch. ”
Trode and his party ran from the garage to the cafeteria in a hurry, originally they thought that Wade was in the center of the war, and if they could replenish such good tanks, their food would definitely not be bad. But they were disappointed by the fact that the food here was even a little less adequate than that of Upper Patna. Easy-to-store high-energy canned meat became a substitute for all meats, while potatoes, which are not easy to spoil, took up almost all vegetables, and finally wheat bread became an absolute staple. Such a combination might be acceptable for a short time, but Trode had inquired from the veterans here - where opportunities to improve food were as rare as rain.
Trood let out a miserable howl again, and because of this, he was educated by the old cook, the old man of the cafeteria, after being told by the old man of the quartermaster
In the afternoon, after a short rest, Trode and his party embarked on a new journey. They were covering four Sdkfz-8 heavy carrier trucks, towing two 88 guns and two Pak40 anti-tank guns.
Trode's team surrounded the four trucks in the middle, maintaining a speed of more than thirty miles in the direction of their destination.
After getting into the tank, Trode sighed and said, "If this is just a simple escort mission, it will be a lot more reassuring." ”
Roy glanced back at him and said with a little disdain: "Cut, don't think it's too beautiful, that old guy must have his reason for transferring us out." ”
Trode's face suddenly turned gloomy, and he said with a sad face: "If the encounter with the enemy is inevitable, then I will pray a little, it is the French troops who are coming, after all, those slow scrap iron are relatively easy to deal with." ”
Nattel said on the side: "Look at your useless appearance, those French chickens are enough for us to play, if they come, they will die in vain." ”
