Chapter 815: Expectations
"As you can see, what Bella and the others fired just now was a KV-2's proprietary concrete-destroying bomb, which is a grenade wrapped in a harder shell, and the mechanism of destruction is similar to that of the APHE, but due to the larger charge, it is more destructive to the target when it explodes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Andrei carefully introduced the KV-2 to the team members: "Although the name is called a concrete destruction bomb, but in fact, for some armored units, it can also penetrate, as for the destruction effect after penetration, you have all seen it just now, except for complete destruction, it seems that there is no other possibility." ”
Combined with Andrei's introduction, Anton analyzed on the side: "If you take into account factors such as actual combat distance, all types of No. 4 tanks used by the German army should be able to ensure a relatively considerable breakdown effect." However, considering the impact of accuracy, the threat to a small number of enemies can only be said to be very average at a normal shooting distance. ”
"That's right, that's right!" After Anton finished speaking, Andrei hurriedly added: "And this guy's ammunition and propellant are loaded separately, so the shooting speed is quite slow." Also, because of the body, you can't fire to the side, which is a key issue! ”
Andre said that this is not just to let the team members understand the performance of the KV-2, but to let them have a fuller understanding of the weaknesses and limitations of the KV-2, so that it will be convenient for other team members to cooperate with the KV-2 in the future. After all, Andre couldn't always be by Bella's side to command, and if the situation called for it, someone had to take his place and take command of the behemoth. This is not to say that Andre looks down on Bella's own ability, but that if you want to control this monster, you will definitely not be able to use one car group alone.
In addition to introducing some aspects of the KV-2, Andrei also took this opportunity to discuss in detail the tactical application of the KV-1 and Su-85. Although the owners of these two tanks are Natalia and Anton, the vice-captains of the 217 squad who are not weaker than Andrei in terms of ability, this introduction is still quite necessary. Because after the battle with Trode, André became more and more aware that relying solely on leadership to make decisions would be very delayed in some critical moments, and he had to develop the self-determination ability of his team members in emergency situations.
"But ......" Listening to Andrei's meticulous explanation, Boris frowned and said: "But according to the current trend, the speed of our tank replacement is so fast, I think we haven't had time to learn these things, and the tank will be replaced." ”
Boris is right, since the beginning of the past six months, the Soviet army's combat vehicles have entered a period of high-speed replacement, and many old equipment has been replaced by new equipment for various reasons, and these new equipment is not sure when it will be replaced by more advanced equipment. The kind of thing that Andrei wants them to learn, as long as they change a batch of tanks, it will hardly be effective.
"You're so lazy!" Andrei hammered Boris twice and said, "Quick replacement? Do you think there will be a lot of fights like last time? Haven't you thought about how dangerous that time was? ”
Although Andrei was shouting, he was not very angry, because he also knew that Boris's ability to have such thoughts was also influenced by his recent attitude - the tank that was scrapped during the last battle with Trode, Andrei did not show any distress at all, and it was true that it was not long before a more advanced tank arrived; And just a day ago, when Bella's tank was dying, Andre, as the captain, was the first to show a more important attitude towards the crew members. Therefore, it is understandable that Boris can have the current point of view.
But Andrei was right, although both in this battle and in the battle with Trood, Andrei's side had losses. But if you carefully analyze the risk of the battle, it was still the battle that made Andre's 217 squad famous and shocked the entire army, and the 217 squad at that time was completely walking on a single-plank bridge, and the slightest mistake would have unimaginable consequences. So for Andre and Anton, they also know the real risk, that is, there was no mistake in that battle, and if it did, it would definitely be an irreparable mistake......
"Anyway, you listen to me honestly!" While educating Boris, Andrei glanced at Bella next to him and said, "But anyway, this is also Bella's tank, you better think about it clearly." ”
"Ah..................h......h I'll be sure to listen to ......."
Andrei gave him an angry look, and then his gaze fell on Anton. If you want to say who Andre has the greatest expectations in this explanation, it must be Anton with the greatest potential. Although Anton's understanding of the strategic level is deeper than that of Andrei and Natalia, his ability in the details of tactics, especially tank battles, is only at a very average level, and this level is actually failing in the 217 squad.
Although when Anton first arrived, Andre looked at him everywhere in his body, but as time went by, although this feeling remained, it was much better. Instead, they thought, "If you can't drive them away, why don't you increase their combat effectiveness?"
Of course, it is impossible for Anton, who has a keen sense of smell in this regard, not to sense Andrei's intentions. However, for this matter, it can only be said that there is a specialization in the art industry, and people have their own specialties, although Anton is obviously the wisest one, but in this regard, his understanding has always been a little unable to keep up, and compared with Andrei, a genius who has such an ability after only more than a year of study, he is still a lot worse.
However, this time it was a little different, and the reason why Andrei had expectations for Anton was mainly due to the way the three tanks fought - aside from the KV-1's role as a 'team shield' during the attack, these three tanks were more defensive in their mode of combat, and the defensive way of fighting was exactly what Anton was good at.
