Chapter 47: 3-10. "Naval Battles" on Land
The turrets on the opposing ships began to turn to this side.
"Their turrets are coming to our side!" In the radio channel, Brother Monkey reminded loudly.
"Get ready! With high-explosive shells! Don't use armor-piercing bullets! Beef Instant Noodles shouted as he took quick aim, then added, "Wait for me to give the order to fire!" ”
For armored gunboats, the use of high-explosive shells is more appropriate than armor-piercing shells.
Although the name "armor" is used in the name of the armored gunboat, in fact, due to the difference in surface and ground combat characteristics, most of the armor on this ship is thinner than that of land vehicles, especially heavy tanks.
The armor on the side of many armoured gunboats is between 15 and 30 mm thick, depending on the position of the front and rear of the ship's side – armor of this thickness is about the level of light tank armor on land vehicles.
For such a surface vehicle with less thick armor and a larger volume, the damage effect of using armor-piercing shells will not be particularly good - unless it can directly hit the waterline, causing it to sink into the water - and this method of attack is also more difficult.
On the side of beef instant noodles, the turrets of several tanks have adjusted the direction of the turrets and are making preparations.
"Okay......" Beef Instant Noodles observed each other while fine-tuning before shooting, "Everyone is ready!" ”
Several members answered in the affirmative in unison, coming from the radio channel.
Beef instant noodles jerked the tank's gunners forward and quickly pulled them back.
With a loud bang, the body of the car shook sharply.
"Good! Fire! ”
Beef instant noodles gave an order.
Immediately afterward, there was a succession of shelling on the side.
The shells either hit an armored gunboat that was close to the opponent or hit the water near it, causing a puff of smoke and water.
"Okay, good!" Beef instant noodles smiled slightly and said with satisfaction.
Immediately afterwards, the beef instant noodles shouted to the walkie-talkie, "Okay, now the front of the car is facing forward, retreat quickly!" Right now! ”
"What?!" Wei Gongzi on the other end of the walkie-talkie was a little puzzled.
"Then, find a new cover! Come on! The other party is definitely going to bombard here! Beef instant noodles didn't explain much in detail, and shouted briefly.
The decision made by Beef Instant Noodles is relatively wise, both in terms of the whole and in the details.
On the whole, when you fire at the opponent, you have already exposed yourself, or at least let the opponent know that there are people here, and the concealment is no longer there, and you need to find new cover.
In terms of details, the "front of the vehicle" is very sensible - the armor in front of these tanks is often the thickest in the armor of the whole vehicle, and it can maintain better protection by keeping the front of the vehicle forward and retreating.
Beef instant noodles they were about to tank, began to keep the front of the car facing and back off.
At this moment, a loud bang sounded next to the tanks of several people.
The shock wave generated by the explosion caused the heavy tank of beef instant noodles to shake violently.
At the same time, this powerful shock wave directly broke a tree as thick as a bowl.
Almost all the bushes on the side, as if they had been harvested, broke off one after another, and fell in all directions according to the direction of the previous shock wave spread, scattering into a piece!
"It was the opponent's 152 guns that fired!" On the walkie-talkie, Brother Monkey shouted nervously.
