Chapter 839: Countdown to launch

Both sides were driving face to face, and soon, the distance was only a few hundred meters, and many of the 30mm cannons of the first regiment of mechanized infantry began to roar.

30 mm cannon, against the German half-track armored personnel carrier, there is no problem, the thickness of the armor of the German armored vehicle is 7mm ~ 12mm, even if it hits the thickest part, that is, even if it hits the 12 mm thick frontal armor of the German armored personnel carrier, such armor can be torn apart, regardless of whether it is with high-explosive or armor-piercing shells.

Sure enough, with the firing of many Type 39 armored vehicles, off-road vehicles, and 30-mm machine guns on wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, all of a sudden, a number of German half-track armored personnel carriers that were moving at high speed were shot.

"Boom, boom, boom"

A lot of 30-mm shells rang out in the German vehicle group, and suddenly, several German half-track armored personnel carriers that had been shot were destroyed, and they stopped in place in smoke.

The wounded Germans, covered in blood and embarrassed, climbed out of these half-track armored personnel carriers, and if they didn't come down, if they didn't do well, these half-track armored vehicles would be blown up.

The rate of fire of the 30-mm guns of the fighters is not low, the actual rate of fire per minute is at least 60 or 70 rounds, that is, almost every second a shell is fired, and if a German half-track armored personnel carrier is aimed at several 30mm guns at the same time, it will only take a few seconds to hit a dozen shells.

In fact, there was such a German half-track armored personnel carrier. At the same time, it was aimed at two or three 30-mm cannons, and in just three or five seconds, the armored vehicle was blown up, and I don't know if it was hit by the fuel tank, but with a "boom", the half-track armored personnel carrier became a fireball.

On the German side, seeing that the distance was still at least six or seven hundred meters, the Chinese tank group took the lead in firing, and in just a few seconds, several of their own armored vehicles were destroyed. Hit yourself by surprise. The Germans immediately began to return fire.

Nearly ten tanks of the German army have been driving at the front of the ranks, and the German offensive line is nearly a thousand meters wide, and the German army has a huge group of tanks. Rumbling coming.

A menacing group of German tanks. See the Chinese tanks taking the lead in firing artillery. The nearly ten tanks immediately began to fire back, and from the barrels of these tanks, it can be seen that it should be a 45 mm caliber main gun. "Boom, boom, boom" several German tanks opened fire. The level of the German army was good, the Chinese side immediately had several tanks shot, a Type 39 armored personnel carrier stopped, an off-road vehicle was destroyed, and several other Type 39 armored personnel carriers and wheeled infantry fighting vehicles were also shot, however, the situation of these tanks was significantly better than these two tanks.

Several other tanks that were hit by bullets, a pit appeared in the part of the bullet, which was not penetrated, and there was also a tank that appeared "ricochet", and the inclined armor of these tanks played a great role, and these tanks that were shot were not greatly affected, and continued to drive and continue to fight.

The main armament of the German half-track armored personnel carriers was two 7.92 mm machine guns, the ammunition of which was Mauser rifle cartridges, which were common to the German army's standard weapon, the Mauser 98K rifle cartridge.

A large number of German half-track armored personnel carriers opened fire, and suddenly, the tanks burst into gunfire, and the German side made a huge noise, and a large number of bullets made the combat vehicles of the mechanized infantry regiment "bang", which was the sound of a large number of machine gun bullets hitting the Chinese tanks.

However, soon, many German troops found that their 7.92 mm machine guns were obviously not powerful enough, and basically did not do much damage to Chinese combat vehicles, and machine gun bullets were absolutely impossible to penetrate Type 39 armored personnel carriers and wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, even armed off-road vehicles, it was difficult to penetrate.

The two sides fought, and suddenly, the entire battlefield was filled with gunfire.

Nearly ten tanks of the German army, leading more than 100 German half-track armored personnel carriers, rushed over, and the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer.

500 meters, 400 meters, 300 meters,

Soon, the two sides were less than two hundred meters away from the nearest tank, and during this time, the Germans were destroyed at least a dozen tanks, and on the side of the mechanized infantry regiment, three or five tanks broke down, and two of them were destroyed by German tanks.

The threat to the mechanized infantry regiment was the nearly ten tanks of the German army, and these two off-road vehicles were also destroyed by the German tanks.

However, now the fighters are focusing their firepower on these German tanks, and there are at least thirty or forty tanks, aiming at these tanks, and these tanks are basically using armor-piercing shells.

Being taken care of by the fighters, these tanks of the German army could not carry them, not to mention, the fighters still used armor-piercing shells, 30 mm armor-piercing shells, and it was no problem to penetrate 20 or 30 mm of armor at a short distance of two or three hundred meters.

Sure enough, as the fighters focused on taking care of these German tanks, the German tanks began to be destroyed one by one, and now, four or five German tanks have been destroyed.

These destroyed German tanks appeared one by one with pits, and some places were even penetrated, with potholes with large bowl mouths, and armor-piercing shells obviously directly penetrated the armor of these tanks and penetrated the inside of the tanks.

The remaining few German tanks will obviously be destroyed soon, and even a few fighters are carrying 120 mm heavy rocket launchers, these fighters are obviously ready to attack these German tanks.

On an off-road vehicle, a soldier only showed his head, completely ignoring the bullets fired next to him, leaned on the compartment, and aimed a German tank more than 200 meters away with a rocket launcher.

"Whoosh"

A rocket, dragging a long tail, flew towards the German tank, which had already appeared in several pits, apparently, almost penetrated by a 30-mm cannon, but the German tank had not yet been destroyed, the German tank seemed to be still firing, and the soldier, who was carrying a 120-mm bazooka, was clearly not ready to let go of the tank.

The accuracy of the rocket was good, it directly hit the frontal armor of the German tank, and with a loud "boom", under the blow of the 120-mm rocket, this seemingly solid German tank, like papier-mâché, was simply vulnerable, and immediately became a pile of scrap metal.

The sound of the explosion just now was very loud, much louder than the explosion of the 30-mm high-explosive bomb, and it immediately attracted the attention of many German troops, and many German soldiers were startled when they saw that their tank was destroyed.

"What kind of weapon is this?"

The German army did not have bazookas, and there were no bazookas in the European and African theaters, except that the Chinese army was equipped with a large number of bazookas, only the US military had just begun to study bazookas, and the Germans naturally did not know what kind of weapon it was.

However, the amazing power of the 120 mm rocket launcher just now made many German soldiers almost stunned, although they don't know what kind of weapon this is, but these German soldiers know that this is definitely a powerful weapon.

Less than a few seconds apart, many German soldiers who saw the tremendous power of the 120-mm rocket launcher heard several such violent explosions, "boom, boom, boom" several loud noises in a row, and the two German tanks and three half-track armored transporters suddenly became a pile of scrap metal.

As the distance between the two sides became closer and closer, many fighters began to find the opportunity to start shooting with their 120mm heavy rocket launchers, and some fighters carrying 40mm bazookas also began to be eager to try.

With the firing of 120-mm heavy rocket launchers, coupled with the blow of a large number of 30-mm cannons, nearly ten tanks of the German army were all reduced to piles of scrap metal, and at this time, the battle began in just a few minutes.

On the German side, seeing that China was so strong, several German officers who commanded the battle were also taken aback and immediately began to ask for reinforcements.

Here, just a few kilometers away from the forward positions of the German army, the German troops stationed in Gary still have a lot of combat vehicles, even tanks, and dozens of them, including some more advanced No. 4 tanks.

Although the Chinese army was strong, there was only one mechanized infantry regiment on the Chinese side, and there were still nearly a dozen of them from the forward positions of the Chinese army, so although the German losses were much greater than those of the Chinese side, the German army did not retreat.

In the distance, the rocket artillery regiment of the heavy artillery brigade of the 1st Army was making final preparations, and many German troops had already seen the rocket artillery regiment in the distance.

Although the Germans did not know what the rocket artillery regiment was preparing to do, in the eyes of most German troops, this Chinese army, equipped with dozens of strange large trucks, was definitely not doing anything good.

The fighting between the two sides was even more intense.

For the mechanized infantry regiment, the only tanks of the German army have been completely destroyed, and the German half-track armored personnel carriers pose little threat to themselves.

The soldiers of the first regiment of mechanized infantry really have no scruples, the threat of the German machine guns to themselves is too small, and the soldiers are a little worried about how the rocket artillery regiment in the distance has not opened fire yet, and in addition, what if the German reinforcements come.

However, the fighters should not worry about the rocket artillery regiment, the rocket artillery regiment finally made all the preparations, and even the launch parameters were proofread, and seeing that nothing went wrong, the commander of the rocket artillery regiment gave the order to launch.

"Countdown to launch, 10, 9, 8,"
