"Boom!" The company commander's car, which had already turned around before, let out a roar, and an armor-piercing bullet pierced the turret of a Sherman on the opposite side. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Sherman's armor defenses are pretty good, and the armor on the front of the turret is even 76.2 mm thick. However, at this distance, it was hit by an 88-mm armor-piercing shell fired by the Leopard L71 caliber gun, and the result was pierced like papier-mâché.

Not counting the penetration, there were dozens of shells in the turret, and these shells were detonated without any suspense. It was so powerful that it blew the turret of this Sherman tank apart. The power of the ammunition explosion was so terrifying that the turret of the Sherman tank, which was nearly three meters high, was lifted out of the air for more than ten meters and then smashed heavily to the ground.

Perhaps it was the death of a neighbor's car that affected him, and the other Sherman on the road did not react after Wang Cheng's car had finished steering and aiming. Until Wang Cheng's car crew destroyed it.

"Onward! Advance! Wang Cheng, who felt that his heart was beating faster, loudly ordered the driver to increase his horsepower and push the two destroyed Sherman tanks away. As for the other American tanks, after destroying two tanks on their own side, they had already retreated. They know very well that their tanks are no match for others.

"Foot soldiers, come up! Go and clear the threat from both sides! "After rushing to the corner, the tanks of this tank company stopped. Wang Cheng poked his head out of the turret and shouted to the infantry and the marines who were still stationed there to protect the tank.

After all, how the Ming army dealt with the American tanks before, those American infantry were also able to deal with the Ming tanks. The Americans also have their own bazookas.

The number of tanks in Wang Cheng's company is not large, which is not much different from the more than 100 tanks left in the 49th Armored Division of the US Army at the moment. And the Americans also had a large number of infantry as support. Under these circumstances, the order given to them by the division headquarters, which was still on the transport ship at the moment, was to hold on to the town and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

After the armored forces stormed the town, the Americans were caught off guard and hurriedly withdrew half of the town. And the Ming army soon consolidated its front again. By the time the Americans came to their senses, the Ming army had completely taken back the town.

With the passage of time, the Ming army was sending a large number of soldiers and supplies ashore through the beachhead and port on a large scale. And the U.S. military has to do everything it can to prevent this from happening. Not much, as long as it takes one night, the Ming army will be able to send at least nearly 200,000 heavily armed troops and a large number of military supplies ashore, which is still a conservative estimate.

If the U.S. 49th Panzer Division can't get into the port area as soon as possible. If you can't recapture it, you will have to destroy it on a large scale. Then they don't have to attack anymore, and they can retreat now.

While the officers and men of the 49th Panzer Division themselves may be tempted to retreat, the U.S. War Department will not agree, and neither will the White House. Those friendly forces will not agree. After redeployment, the 49th Panzer Division launched another heavy attack before dinner in an attempt to capture the important town leading to the port.

More than 100 tanks lined up in a long column, and thousands of US officers and men received orders to fight to the death, and they must take their positions as soon as possible no matter what. In order to provide support to the front-line troops. The U.S. troops scraped together more than 20 artillery pieces to bombard the Ming troops in the town.

The 49th Panzer Division originally had its own self-propelled artillery battalion as fire support. However, the self-propelled guns of this battalion had already been blown into a pile of scrap metal in the morning during a large-scale air raid by the Ming army. Now I had to get some 105 or even 76 mm guns from nearby friendly forces to support them.

The Americans' industrial production energy is very strong, so strong that it can kill all other countries except the Ming Dynasty. Their army, like the Ming Dynasty, has also completed the mechanized modification, and like the Ming Dynasty, they no longer use horses but use cars as a means of transport. The Americans also possess a strong ability to produce many military supplies at the same time, including aircraft, tanks, warships, artillery, and many others. And its production quantity is also second only to the Ming Dynasty.

The infantry units of the U.S. Army, even the National Guard such as the 40th Mechanized Infantry Division, are equipped with tank battalions. The number of artillery pieces of various calibers is also as high as nearly 100. The penetration rate of this heavy weapon is almost the same as that of the Ming Army. This is also the reason why the 49th Panzer Division was able to collect dozens of artillery pieces at this moment. The US military actually does not lack all sorts of military supplies.

Shells rained down on the town, blasting buildings into ruins. At this moment, the Ming army has not unloaded the artillery, and it is unable to use its powerful artillery force to return fire. Fortunately, the Ming army still had air superiority. After being subjected to heavy shelling. The Ming army immediately called for air support. The bomber formation on the air parade rushed to the battlefield within 10 minutes, and under the fire of the US anti-aircraft weapons on the ground, they overturned the US artillery with one accurate dive bombing after another.

The attack formation composed of more than 100 tanks and thousands of soldiers was very strong, but the Ming army did not show weakness. The port in the rear continued to unload military supplies, and the Ming army in the town was soon supplemented by another armored force. The Ming army now has more than 70 tanks and nearly 2,000 soldiers in the town.

Such a narrow town could not accommodate so many troops on both sides. The American troops rushed into the town almost in a face-to-face fight with the Ming army.

Artillery fire roared, bullets rained down. The armies of both sides turned into professional demolition teams, and in a very short period of time, the entire town was flattened. Between the ruins, infantry on both sides fought almost face-to-face, hand-to-hand combat with rifle butts and sapper shovels became the norm, and in many cases a shuttle of bullets could knock down a group of people on both sides at the same time.

While the infantry was fighting, the armored forces of both sides were not idle. After numerous buildings were dismantled. The tank corps of both sides with good shooting boundaries fired at close range.

The 34th Armored Division of the Ming Army is an elite unit, and its tanks are also equipped with new Leopard and Tiger types. Able to be selected for this large-scale landing operation, but also the armored forces of the first wave of attack. The strength of the 34th Panzer Division is naturally beyond doubt.

This armored division did not have a tank four, and was equipped with all the powerful Tiger and Leopard. However, at this time, the Tiger was still on the ship and was in the process of being quickly unloaded. And the main armor of the Leopard tank could not resist the direct fire of the main gun of the American M26 Pershing at close range. Because the Leopard emphasizes the perfect combination of firepower, armor and maneuverability. It is not like the Tiger tank that pursues almost insoluble armored defenses.

"Stand back! Back off! Wang Cheng, who was lying on the periscope, shouted to his driver, "Retreat behind the ruins!" Use those stones, reinforced concrete, to increase defenses. ”

Mr. Wang's car quickly retreated behind the rubble of a two-story building that had been bombed and collapsed. Here they can effectively resist the attack of the American tanks on the opposite side with the help of the ruins. Because of the proximity, the M4 Sherman tank on the opposite side was able to penetrate the Leopard flank armor. The numerical superiority of the Americans soon caused the Ming army to begin to retreat.

"Boom!" An armor-piercing bullet hit the rubble in front of Wang Cheng's car. No matter how powerful the armor-piercing projectile is, it can't penetrate the reinforced concrete several meters thick, and Wang Cheng's car is unharmed.

"Boom!" This time it was Wang Cheng's counterattack, and a tungsten core armor-piercing projectile penetrated an M26 Pershing tank more than 100 meters away, penetrating through its frontal armor. Immediately the tank was filled with smoke and flames. The tank came to a slow halt. Several armored soldiers covered in flames escaped from the tank and rolled desperately on the ground in an attempt to extinguish the fire. But after a shuttle of coaxial machine gun bullets swept over, several fire men were lying on the ground.

"Fire! Fire! Wang Cheng kept directing his car to fire heavily at the American tank units. The friendly forces around his car have basically been lost, and only Wang Cheng's car, which is hiding behind the ruins of the building, is still holding on.

About a reinforced platoon of infantry scattered around Wang Cheng's car to support him. Otherwise, Wang Cheng's car might have been killed by the infiltrated American infantry. He himself had witnessed a Leopard tank only a few dozen meters away on the left being blown up by several American infantrymen holding heavy anti-tank mines.

Although Wang Cheng's car was helped by the wreckage of the building, it was still hit many times. Fortunately, the Panther's armored defense is still stiff enough compared to the 76.2 mm guns equipped with Sherman tanks, which make up the majority of the U.S. military. The Leopard was not penetrated, and although almost all the external equipment was destroyed, including the most important sighting equipment, the tank was able to continue fighting.

However, because the distance between the two sides is very close at the moment, and although it is already more than five o'clock, the weather is still very bright. Wang Cheng's car kept shooting and firing. In this fierce battle, which can be said to have reached a white-hot level, the car commanded by Wang Cheng destroyed a total of nineteen US tanks! This is a very staggering number, and it even set an army record of fifteen enemy tanks destroyed in a single battle set by Lin Shuo.

Among the Ming landing force, there were many soldiers like Wang Cheng who fought bravely, and the armored troops and infantry were the same. With unprecedented courage and firm conviction, they have always held their positions and dealt a great blow to the superior US military.

The fierce battle was actually not long, but the losses paid by both sides were very heavy. At least nearly 70 U.S. tanks were destroyed, and more than 1,000 infantry were killed or wounded. The Ming army, which held its ground, lost nearly 30 tanks and hundreds of officers and soldiers. It was the Tiger Heavy Tank Battalion of the 34th Panzer Division that came from the port area to end this tragic battle. (To be continued.) )
