Chapter 2: Departure, My First Battle
"System!? Lord God!? Show Properties!? Damn, it's really deceitful ...... in the novel."
After Tang left, the others were busy with their own business, and Qi Lin did not forget to take advantage of this rare free time to dig up the possible 'traverser golden finger', but it was obvious that nothing appeared.
There is no main god brand watch on the wrist, and there is no legendary virtual interface in front of him, although the headphones, eyes, mobile phones, and clothes on his body have become tank hats, goggles, communicators, tank jackets and military boots, but there are no special functions.
There have been a few more changes in weapons.
The first is his car, the M4A3E8 Sherman, nicknamed 'Big Shot'.
In the War Thunder game, the M4A3E8 Sherman tank can only be used with a 76mm tank main gun and an M1919 Browning (7.62mm machine gun, also known as a 0.30 medium machine gun) side by side.
Now the heading machine gun in the co-pilot position of the body can also be used, in addition to the M2HB Browning (12.7 mm, also known as 0.50 heavy machine gun/old godmother/heirloom) heavy machine gun.
In addition, two track pieces are hung on the front of the car, and two self-rescue logs are also hung on each side of the body.
Of course, Qi Lin didn't expect these things to add much defense to the tank, and as for the Tiger 88 shell in the movie that was deflected off by the self-rescue wood, he couldn't even think about it.
As for individual weapons, Qi Lin has an M1911A1 Browning pistol on his waist, and five M3A1 submachine guns are also equipped in the car for use by the crew members.
However, to Qi Lin's disappointment, these weapons are all ordinary weapons, and they don't have any more ** attributes and are not infinite bullets.
The system can't be called up, and the weapons are all normal, and the only thing that stands out is the 4 car crews.
However, the differences are limited to the command and control of the tank, and there are no special attributes other than that.
In addition to being disappointed, Qi Lin had no choice but to accept his fate.
"In this way, I can only protect myself in the next few battles for now." Qi Lin rubbed his nervous fingers, which were almost stiff, and forcibly cheered himself up.
"The two battles ahead are not too difficult in the vegetable field and the town, but how can you fight there in the tiger style?"
Thinking of the movie in which the ambushed tiger instantly knocked out the other three tanks except for the protagonist 'Fury', Qi Lin felt his scalp tingle.
Although the Tiger Commander in the movie was finally killed by the 'Fury' under the screenwriter's powerful file, it was also a Tiger tank after all! Can kill Sherman's storage zài in various postures!
What's more, at that time, the Tiger started from the last car of the team, and sent away the Sherman tank at the end of the team with one shot.
And the position he is in now is exactly the last one in the team.
To say that you are not scared is simply.
"If only I drove Dumbo (m4a3e2-jumbo, also known as Big Mac)!" Qi Lin muttered.
Previously, he had read a message about Dumbo on the Internet, saying that a Dumbo from the 743rd Tank Battalion lost power due to a mine in a tank battle in Germany again, and was subsequently hit by 8 88mm shells, but except for one that broke through the side side, the remaining 7 failed to penetrate.
There was also a Dumbo that received four or five 88-mm shells head-on, and all but one that penetrated through the co-pilot's machine-gun hatch did not penetrate at all.
The frontal armor of this cargo reached a thickness of 102 mm, and the armor at the thickest point of the conveyor reached 148 mm, and the frontal armor of the Tiger was only 110 mm thick.
Moreover, the new cast turret of this goods is 152 mm thick in front and back, and the gun shield has reached 177.8 mm.
In addition, Dumbo also has a model equipped with a 76 mm tank gun, which can be said to have good defense and firepower.
It's a pity that with such an artifact, Qi Lin can only fantasize about YY. Who told him to learn rage in the first place, but he came out with m4a3e8 first.
It's useless to regret it, and there is no system like that for him to read the file and start over, Qi Lin was annoyed, but he had no choice but to accept his fate.
"Lin! Don't cower in the car, get out! ”
Tang's voice suddenly came from outside the car, and it seemed that he had returned from the mission.
Qi Lin hurriedly slapped his face, trying to adjust himself to the best condition, at least not to be seen as unusual, before opening the hatch.
"Come down, Lin!" With a speechless expression on his face, Tang watched Qi Lin who had come out of the turret and beckoned, looking as if he was very familiar with the latter.
For this, Qi Lin can only attribute it to someone who brought him here. It seems that he has been assigned some strange identity.
"It's not bad, it's better to have an identity than not to have one."
Thinking so, Qi Lin climbed out of the tank and walked towards Tang with several other commanders.
"Well, here's the task! We have a platoon in this area that is trapped by enemy fire, and the Germans may be hiding anti-tank guns here, and once we pass through the hedge wall, we are in their field of vision, so be careful! ”
Tang pointed his finger on the map, and of course, Qi Lin, who was blind on the map, said that he really didn't understand it at all.
But if you don't understand, you have to pretend to understand, anyway, it's right to follow the others when the time comes.
"Anyone who can move, I'll be killed!"
Tang glanced at everyone, especially when he looked at Qi Lin, the fierceness and murderous aura revealed in his eyes made the latter feel a chill down his spine, and he nodded quickly.
You must know that Don's car crew had just died of a co-pilot, and then there was rookie Norman cutting in line. And the young platoon commander was killed because of Norman's cousin Xiàn before, which will make his anger value absolutely max, so Qi Lin doesn't want to touch his moldy head at this time.
"Good! What if they shoot at us first? ”
Davis, who was chubby on the side, nodded, and then asked.
He was armed with an M3 M4A4 Sherman with an M4 75mm gun, nicknamed 'Old Phyllis (also translated as Cold Girl).
"If they dare to make the first move, it just exposes their position."
Don glanced at him, then tucked the map into his bag.
"Kill those firepower points and save the brothers! Before the evening, we storm the city and end the battle, you know? ”
"Why do we bother with those people instead of going straight to Berlin?"
The only person who can ask such a cheap question is the same Binkosky who mocks the young platoon commander at the beginning of the film, and his car is also an M4A4 Sherman tank, nicknamed the 'Killing Factory'.
"Why are you such a bastard?" Don glared at him.
"That's a good question!"
Chubby Davis smiled and mended, and Binkoski pouted and gave him a wicked smile.
"Execute the order! Fury, Old Phyllis, Lucy Sue, Kill Factory, Big Shot. ”
Tang interrupted the good-natured joke between the two, pronounced the nicknames of each car in turn, and arranged the position of each car, but finally looked at Qi Lin with obvious unease.
In this regard, Qi Lin could only scratch his nose in embarrassment, pouted, and then climbed back to his tank at the command of Don to "go".
The Sherman tanks started their engines with a roar, and the platoon of infantry assigned to carry out the mission with Qi Lin and the others also climbed into five tanks in the midst of the noise, intending to hitchhike to the battlefield.
"All tanks, check communications!"
Don's voice came over the radio, and subsequently, the voices of other tank commanders also appeared on the radio at one time.
War is coming, my first battle......
"L1-4 received!" Peterson [Commander of the M4A1 (76)W Sherman tank, nicknamed 'Lucy Sue'].
"L1-3 received!" Davis.
"L1-5 received!" Binkosky.
Certain...... Don't just die in the movie so lightly!
“l1-2…… Roger that! ”
Qi Lin took a deep breath, turned on the radio, and replied. The voice was not firm, but at least it no longer trembled (the code name of the Tang team was L16).
Soon, all climbed into the tank.
Qi Lin's tank was divided into 6 infantry, two of them looked like recruits like Norman or the young platoon commander in the movie, the tension on his face was self-evident, and the other four looked like calm veterans, and one of them also exuded a strong bloody smell on his body, and looked like he had killed a lot of people.
At this time, the veteran was in charge of the Browning M2HB heavy machine gun on the roof of his car.
"Let's go!" Tang's voice remembered from the radio again, firm and powerful, inexplicably, adding a lot of confidence to Qi Lin.
From the very beginning, Don's crew participated in battles in North Africa, and then in France and Belgium, he did not fall behind in large and small battles, so it can be said that he has rich combat experience.
As long as you don't die and listen carefully to his command, there will be absolutely no problem in the first battle!
Qi Lin clenched his fists fiercely, secretly cheering himself up.
The convoy moved slowly, marching on a muddy road leading to the front line according to Tang's previous deployment.
