Chapter 247: The Invincible King Eight

Chen Mo's base on their side is located in the north of the map, the B8 area, but their tank birthplace is divided into two parts, among the fifteen tanks on Chen Mo's side, except for five anti-tank and two self-propelled guns born near the base, the other vehicles were born in the west of the base, five hundred meters away from the base in the B3 area.

The same is true for the enemy, whose base is in the J4 area south of the map, but with the exception of anti-tank and self-propelled guns, the enemy's other tanks are also born in the J2 area, which is about 500 meters east of the base.

This way of spawning is different from most maps, and because the birthplaces of medium and light tans with high mobility are far away from the base, and the heavy tans that can fight and resist are also born far away from the base, so, when running at the beginning of the game, you must pay attention to the distance of 500 meters, if you don't pay attention to the distance of 500 meters and arrange the running position randomly, when the contact battle begins, you will definitely be unlucky.

Because Chen Mo was using anti-tank, he and four other anti-tank and two self-propelled guns were born in the B8 area in the northeast corner of the map, which is relatively close to the East Road Heights. If you attack the East Road Heights from this area, you can directly enter the summit area of the East Road Heights by climbing up the hill. Your main mobile force is located in the B3 area in the northwest corner of the map, which is very close to the West Heights, making it very convenient to directly attack the West Heights.

However, the distribution of the enemy's forces is the opposite of Chen Mo's side, and the enemy's main mobile forces, namely Chongtan and Zhongtan, are born in the southeast corner of the map. It is also very close to the East Road Heights, and once Chen Mo's anti-tank forces vainly try to rely on the speed and distance advantage to rashly attack the East Road Heights, they will inevitably encounter the enemy's heavy tank clusters head-on.

Anyone who has ever played with tanks knows that despite the power of anti-tank firepower, it is not suitable for dogfights with enemy tanks in tight areas, especially heavy or medium tanks. Before the advent of the ten-level anti-tank, the anti-tank combat method was to keep a distance as much as possible and not to fight the enemy in close quarters, which has almost become a rule of anti-tank combat.

Even after the appearance of a level 10 anti-tank with armor comparable to a level 10 heavy tank and firepower comparable to a level 10 self-propelled gun, some deformed level 10 antitanks can be exempted from this rule. But other anti-tank companies generally follow this rule.

Now in this room. The highest-level anti-tank is only level 9, and it is obvious that it also needs to abide by the rules of fighting at a distance, so if you rush up, it will inevitably lead to the danger of the East Road Heights and even the loss of control of the East Road Heights. As Chen Mo, who got the right to command. Naturally, I would not make such a low-level brain-dead mistake.

So Chen Mo said very simply: "Old anger." Your Tiger is fast, and you will come to the East Road Highlands immediately at the beginning! Tiger Hunting, AT7, let's go to Kadong Road Highlands with Tiger Style, come over first. I'll elaborate on the specifics later. ”

"75 and two IS, the three of you are guarding the West Road Heights, you don't need to attack, you just need to block the West Road Heights and not let the enemy come, Barton, your vision is high, the West Road Heights need a high field of vision, so you light up in front of the West Road Heights! Let's talk about the specific situation after the beginning! ”

"Artillery, the two of you are separated, one A9, one A2, the two of you discuss the specific situation, but the opening must be a gun position, your task is the diagonal high ground!"

"Iraq and M7, the task of the two of you is to start lighting the lights in the central villages and towns, one is responsible for the east of the river, and the other is in charge of the west of the river, you can cooperate with each other when necessary, but you must ensure your own safety, the positions of the two of you are very easy to be lit up by the enemy, once they are lit, immediately hide behind the buildings in the villages and towns to dodge, if it is not successful, temporarily evacuate through the central river or other means. However, the villages and towns in the middle are the range of activities of the two of you at the beginning, and you can't lose them or die prematurely! ”

As soon as Chen Mo's words fell, the battle began, and the squad leader's voice sounded on the radio: "Then who, commander, where are I and Dawang Ba?" ”

Chen Mo smiled: "You two don't have to go anywhere, gather in the central river!" The heaviest and most dangerous task for the two of you is to break through the central river with the help of your armor! ”

The squad leader immediately exclaimed: "Let's both break through? I'm good to say something, but the speed of T95, if you break through in the middle, isn't it pure death? ”

Chen Mo commanded Alexander. Comrade Borisov climbed up the hillside of the East Road Heights, and said very calmly: "Don't worry, I am familiar with this map, and there are 180 battles if there are not 200 battles, and I know the enemy's reaction, and I also know where to break through. Rest assured, if you break through the central channel, I guarantee that the enemy's artillery will not be able to hit you! ”

Chen Mo said this kind of thing is definitely very reasonable, this map in the real world world game, Chen Mo doesn't know how many games he has played, he naturally knows that the central river channel is the easiest place to break through, and it is also the most difficult place to break through, if you want to break through the central river, you must have a tank that can resist. The narrow terrain of the central channel restricts the rapid passage of tank clusters, and one tank advances, the best way! However, the narrow terrain of the central channel is also very advantageous to the defending side, and it is difficult to break through the central channel if the attacker does not have a tank with thick enough armor to break through.

But in this battle, there is a T95 known as invincible armor on his side, and with this T95 nicknamed 'King Eight', the most secure breakthrough method in Chen Mo's heart will be perfectly solved immediately!

In the history of the real world, the T95, a monster tank destroyer, did not really equip the army of the Mi Army. In fact, this big king eight, who used to be able to walk sideways in the game of the real world, only made two prototypes in the history of the real world.

In September 1943, in the history of the real world, the United States Army considered landing in Europe after the landing. In order to deal with the German Atlantic line and the strong Siegfried Line, it was necessary to carry out anti-pillbox and anti-armor operations, and at this time, it was necessary to develop a heavy tank with thick armor and high firepower, so several heavy tank projects were launched. The original scheme was to add a 105-mm T1E1 tank gun to the T5E1 heavy tank with a gas-electric transmission and increase the thickness of the frontal armor to almost 200 mm. However, the United States War Department disagreed, believing that the use of gas-electric transmission devices was unreliable, and its huge body was too bulky, and what was even more terrifying was that the car only had 40 mm of armor behind the side, which was as vulnerable as an elongated loaf of bread.

But before abandoning this one project. Mi Jun has long been thinking about another plan. It is to continue to insist on heavy firepower using 105 mm T5E1 guns. The chassis insisted on being modified from the T23 tank, but the armor had to be increased to more than 300 mm and the weight reached more than 90 tons, which was initially named the T28 heavy tank at that time. At that time, the design of the T28 was still stuck in the use of the elongated T23 chassis. It uses a gasoline engine and a mechanical transmission. And maintained in the state of double tracks.

But. When the Mimi Army War Department learned that Germany was developing the Mouse tank, the Mistress Army also hoped to have a superweapon to compete with it. In the spring of 1945, the U.S. Ordnance Board issued a document changing the T28 tank to the T95 tank. Initially, five prototypes will be produced. Due to the unprecedented size and weight of this type of tank, a suitable manufacturer could not be found for a while, and the contract was awarded by the Pacific Vehicle Casting Company of the United States after bidding. Beginning in May, the Ordnance Committee handed over the design drawings to the Pacific Company, and on June 2, production of this amazing tank destroyer began in the United States, which is not good at building tank destroyers.

To reduce the height, the T95 tank destroyer used a turretless structure. The T5E1 gun, which is 62 times more caliber than 105 mm, is directly mounted on the shield in the front of the center of the hull, and the main gun has a horizontal left and right firing range of 10 degrees, and an elevation angle of -5 degrees - +20 degrees, which is not very large.

The speed of the T95 has always been a huge problem due to the use of the same Ford GAN engine (only 560 horsepower) as the M26 Pershing tank, and the T95 weighs twice as much as the Pershing tank. The T95 has a maximum speed of only 13 kilometers per hour, while a steady speed of less than 11 kilometers per hour, and can only reach 7 kilometers per hour at 2,600 rpm, which can be described as turtle speed as its rival Mouse tank.

On June 20, 1945, the construction of the T95 tank destroyer began, and the body welding of the first prototype was completed in early August. After the end of the war in the Pacific region, the US military reduced its order, from 5 prototypes to 2. On December 21, the No. 1 prototype with chassis number 40226809 was transported to Aberdeen for engine testing, and the second prototype (chassis number 40226810) was sent to Fort Knox and then transported to the engineering department in Yuma, Arizona, for pontoon testing.

In fact, strictly speaking, the T95 with heavy armor and heavy firepower was not suitable for the classification of armored vehicles in the United States at that time, because in the classification of armored vehicles in the United States, the tank generally refers to the tracked armored vehicle with a turret, and the slightly thinner armor is divided into tank destroyers with armor for firepower, and the classification of T95 is obviously not suitable for the above classification methods, so in 1946, the name was changed back and changed to T28 super heavy tank, Because it is considered that heavy armor and heavy firepower are more suitable to be described as tanks rather than artillery vehicles.

And in the space and real world games, this strange tank destroyer that has never been equipped has become one of the overlords on the battlefield! It reproduces the style of this tank destroyer that was originally designed in the history of the real world!

Whether it is in space or in the real world game, if you want to ask who the enemy is most reluctant to encounter in narrow terrain in battle, I am afraid that nine out of ten people will answer 'Dawang Ba', even if it is known as invincible German level 10 anti-tank stomach ache 100, it is not willing to confront Dawang Ba head-on in narrow terrain, even if Dawang Ba is only a level 9 anti-tank.

Why is this so? Because the frontal armor of the Grand King Eight reached a terrifying 305 mm, this armor thickness is unsurpassed among all types of tanks! And while the King Eight has such amazing frontal armor, it has very, very few frontal weaknesses, even if many people know that the crotch of the King Eight and the hemispherical hatch on both sides of the roof are its biggest weaknesses, but if it is really a battle, these three weaknesses are difficult to penetrate. Chen Mo has a deep understanding of this.

Originally, when there was no level 10 anti-tank in the real world world game, the big king eight at that time was almost whoever saw who walked around, especially when the big king eight had protective power around him, no one dared to fight against the big king eight with a hard draw, because it was purely the rhythm of looking for death. Even after the tenth-level anti-tank came out in the later stage, the firepower of the anti-tank was already called a metamorphosis ~ state, but there was still no car willing to draw head-on with the king eight. At the beginning, Chen Mo had seen a scene with his own eyes in the game of the real world, it was a stomach ache 100 that had just appeared, as Chen Mo's teammate in the battle, he encountered a big Wang Ba who was moving slowly but extremely firmly, Chen Mo was by his teammate's side at that time, and saw that his teammates were at a distance of more than 300 meters, playing two rounds of a total of twelve gold coin bullets, but the big Wang Ba still shook his head and hit in a straight line, and the twelve gold coin bullets did not take away even a drop of blood damage! You must know that Chen Mo's teammate at that time was a master who had fought more than 20,000 games and had a combat power of more than 1,300!

Is it Chen Mo's teammate who can't fight? Obviously not, because that teammate had said this result in the communication system after playing the twelve gold coin bullets, and Chen Mo was by his teammate's side at that time and witnessed all this happening, so it would definitely not be that teammate who deliberately released water!

That caused such a consequence, it can only be said that the frontal armor of the Great King Eight is too perverted~ perverted. Because after the battle reached its worst, Chen Mo drove the Fu San cannon with less than half of the blood left and directly pasted it on Dawang Ba, and carefully watched the face of Dawang Ba at a very close distance, and the result was that in addition to the bullet marks caused by the ricochet, it was a white cannon point (if there is no black dot in the white cannon point, it means that the cannonball did not penetrate it), and there are no less than dozens of traces on the entire face of Dawang Ba, but none of them can penetrate it!

Therefore, whether it is in space or in the real world game, the face of the Great King Eight is invincible! One of the so-called 'four hard', the face of the king is one of them!

However, compared to Dawangba's invincible face, Dawangba's speed and side back are its most fatal weaknesses, so when Dawangba is attacking, it is best to have teammates to protect Dawangba's side and rear; Similarly, the turtle speed of the King VIII and its large and flat body are also the favorite targets of the SPG, so the attacks of the SPGs and the attacks from the flanks are the most feared by the King VIII!

However, in the map of Belogorsk, the central river channel is the offensive route that was born for the Great King! The steep banks on both sides of the central river and the three bridges can allow the king to directly ignore the attack of the self-propelled guns, and the narrow river channel can prevent the enemy from approaching the king from the two directions behind the side, and if you want to attack the king, you have to face its painful face!

If you are followed by a heavily armored but very agile M103 behind the Great King Eight, and the duo will attack the central river, it will be a perfect match! (To be continued......)
