Chapter 476: This Nima and a Water Repairman!
The soldiers of the Qing army's patrol battalion soon found that the Shamanli fast gun in their hands could not do anything with the two steel monsters on the opposite side except for making some clanging sounds, and the bullets that hit their bodies could not even rub off their iron and blue skin. Finally, when the commander of the N3 tank remembered to use the remote-controlled M2 heavy machine gun above the main gun, the Qing soldiers who were still hesitant to find some black dog blood to splash the two monsters immediately broke up into the bushes on the side of the road.
Yu Hu and Chen Ze, the two Voldemorts, originally expected these braids to be killed in an instant by the sudden Green Paint District armored forces, but they saw a lot of braids running towards their hiding place despite the rubbing of the bushes.
"Your uncle, did the coordinated infantry eat fasting, why did you put so many braids in?" Chen Ze was also speechless at the braids that a group of ghosts and wolves howled and ran towards him.
Infantry? Inexistent. In fact, last night, when Yan Feng and Yu Hu fired black guns at this Qing army, this "armored unit" that was transmitted by the "director team" heard the gunshots. The reason why they did not rush to support friendly forces is not because these armored units do not have the ability to fight at night, and the "director team" does not castrate any function of these armored vehicles, they are still equipped with high-precision thermal imagers.
The team, which consisted entirely of maintenance engineers and technicians, spent nearly two hours staffing the various positions. They can be considered good at repairing tanks, but they are obviously not very good at killing with these machines that they know well. It's no wonder that when encountering an ox cart suspected of being an IED, there is a scene of chickens flying and dogs jumping.
The coordinated infantry is counting on it, these rough embryos are okay with wrenches or something, fighting together with rifles and tanks, and there is a possibility that they will be crushed into patties by the driver who is also a maintenance worker every minute. Therefore, although they knew that everyone would have a blind spot in the tank, none of them wanted to be the infantry accompanying the tank, which is why this armored squad would suddenly meet the Qing army after bypassing the corner.
"Why are you driving a main battle tank, are you still afraid of IED?" The armored units behind the N3 mocked on the radio.
"Open your dog's eyes and see that this Nima has a cart full of suspicious items! If it were all explosives, at least two! If this blows up, we don't even want to please anyone! The commander of the N3 slammed back.
As maintenance personnel of these armored units, they have personally repaired many damaged vehicles. Of course, they knew what would happen if two tons of explosives were detonated by those oddly shaped braids at this distance. Even if the armor of the tank can withstand the impact of the explosion, the crew inside is estimated to not survive.
In fact, they had dealt with such tanks that were said to have been destroyed by 100 kilograms of explosives in the dome light curtain. So although the N3 tank at the head of the platoon was still some distance from the ox cart loaded with suspected explosives, the commander had reason to believe that it was nearly twenty times the amount of charge that had been used in the original ambush to defeat them all.
The "Nanola" armored repair vehicle stuck behind the N3 quickly reversed, leaving room for the N3 to move backwards away from the "big bomb" they imagined. Then the captain of the N3 immediately told the driver to reverse the car, and the pile of metal boxes full of ox carts gave him goosebumps.
The N3 recoiled sharply, and the chain with a round metal ball dangling behind its turret revealed its identity as a Merkava MK4 main battle tank. It is no wonder that these maintenance workers dare to retreat into the tanks, as the tanks that have been engaged in street battles with the Palestinian forces in Gaza for many years must have the ability to detect in time the militias that often use urban buildings as cover to launch sneak attacks on tanks. As a result, the tank's ability to perceive the outside world is higher than that of other tanks of the same generation, and each crew member of the Merkava Mk4 is equipped with an external reconnaissance monitor, which can truthfully reflect the situation around the body to each crew.
It is precisely because of these monitors that this "Merkava" MK4 has become an artifact-like existence in the security war. So the group of maintenance workers simply did not send any scouts without fear, and let N3 open the way directly in front of the team, so that there was a scene of bypassing the corner and facing the Qing army.
"Gunner, prepare to detonate that pile of suspicious objects." As soon as the N3 commander had retreated to a safe distance from his own armored units, he gave the gunner the order to destroy the ox cart that was suspected to be full of explosives.
"And what ammunition should we use?" The loader asked awkwardly as he looked at the bullet selection button in front of him.
The Merkava Mk4 has two rotating magazines behind the body, and each magazine can hold five shells, and the type of shells is managed by the on-board computer. The magazine is placed in a separate space in the turret to prevent damage to the occupants in the event of detonation of ammunition in the vehicle. The loader simply presses the select button to find the desired shell and feed it into the chamber. Guess where all the other ammunition for the Merkava MK4 tank is stored, apart from these 10 shells? The answer is to store the ammo rack under the turret, and this space for storing ammunition can also be used to load the crew.
When the Merkava MK4 main tank removed the ammunition racks for shells in the body under the turret, it was possible to free up a temporary space for six infantrymen.
Yes, you read that right, and I didn't scribble! The Merkava MK4 main battle tank can carry six other infantry in addition to the crew members! For this reason, the main station tank is nicknamed "the strongest infantry fighting vehicle in history" by military fans. Well, it's true that its 120mm MG253 smoothbore cannon can beat out other people's infantry chariots, and it's not the strongest infantry chariot.
It must be mentioned here that the body of this Merkava MK4 main battle tank painted with white N3 insignia is crammed with six maintenance engineers and mechanics. So despite the difficulty of choosing a loader, in fact, you can only choose those ten shells.
"Whatever, armor-piercing shells! Barrier Breaker! Any shell, as long as it can detonate that damn pile of explosives on the oxcart! The captain's nerves had been ripped off by the pile of metal boxes on the bullock cart.
"N3, there's gunfire in the bushes to our left. If I'm not mistaken, someone is shooting with a NATO 5.56mm bullet. "The rough embryo on the armored repair vehicle "Nanora", located behind the N3, alerted the MK4 tank in front by radio.
"And then?" The capabilities of the N3 commander are clearly not sufficient for his current position as commander.
"We dragged on all night last night, and there may be one of the few infantry left in the green-painted area in the woods. If they all hang up, next time we will have to draw lots to choose people to serve as the infantry accompanying the vehicle. The guy on the "Namira" armored repair vehicle actually didn't have any military leadership ability, and he was just afraid that he would be unlucky and sent to do infantry errands.
"Damn, kill the cow first, and we'll turn around and go to the aid of our allies." The N3 commander also understood that it was really to the point where he had to rely on the lottery to select the infantry among the maintenance workers, and he had to touch the long and short lots, after all, no one would be the commander of this car.
Faced with the braids that came wildly, Voldemort, Yu Hu and Chen Ze, had to choose to shoot. When they exchanged victory points for jackets in the dome light curtain, they all took into account their penchant for scavenging in towns, and the color of their clothes was dark gray, as close as possible to the ambient tones of the city scene.
But this is the bush in the late autumn of Zichuan in the late Qing Dynasty, and the surrounding Dunyima is an earthy yellow dead branches and leaves, so it is estimated that there is no chance to continue to be Voldemort, so he can only do it hard. Fortunately, our armored troops are on the official road, no, it's all over with a top, Chen Ze thought to himself.
I just don't know how he will feel when he sees that the so-called armored unit is only composed of a "Merkava" MK4 main battle tank and a "Namira" armored repair vehicle? In fact, the most peculiar thing is that none of the tank drivers are combatants, and it takes a lot of heart to rely on their support to escape!
