Chapter 8 Tanks fight bayonets

"Boom! boom!"

The heavy chariot unit of the emperor, who was the first to open fire, immediately stopped and fired after discovering that the Galia chariot cluster had launched an assault.

The power of the 122-mm grenade blew up huge torches on the way of the Galia chariot charge.

A powerful shock wave and powerful shrapnel damaged several of the Gallia tanks, two of which had their tracks stripped off one side due to their proximity to the point of explosion.

The power of the 122 guns was enough to stun the crew of the Galia without the shells penetrating the armor of the Galia tank.

In the first shot, six of Galia's chariots stopped.

"Reload!

Although the design of the first round worked well, the commanders of the heavily armored units were still sweating profusely and howling for the gunners to hurry up and reload.

The 122 mm built-in infantry gun has two biggest problems, the first is that it is too inflexible, and the other is that the rate of fire is too slow.

Because of the use of sub-loading shells, it is manual, so only 1.5~2 shells can be fired in one minute. And the accuracy is not very reliable either.

Just after the first round of firing was over, the infantry gun, whose turret was almost fixed to the front of the hull, was almost exhausted, because when the second shell had just been loaded.

"All of them! Rush in! Mix with the enemy tanks!"

The Gallia tank, which was assaulting at full speed, had already rushed into the tank group of the Emperor. and the emperor ** heavy tank mixed together.

"Shoot at the side of the enemy tank!"

The method used by the Galia Tankman in dealing with the Balebina style has been repeated again.

In hand-to-hand combat with tanks at close range, the right side of the fixed turret is of minimal use.

The Emperor has thick skin but is very inflexible, especially for infantry support tanks with fixed turrets.

"Hurry up!!!Destroy those Galia!"

The anxious commander ordered so.

"No! it will hurt your teammates!"

The power of the 122-mm infantry gun's close-range explosion can hurt not only the enemy, but also itself.

When this kind of close-range fire, the powerful power of the 122 grenade can also hurt the emperor in the car.

Later army tank guns designed distance insurance to prevent this problem.

Grenades must not explode within 50 meters of discharge.

It is enough to show that a near-large-caliber grenade can also cause great damage to oneself when fired at close range.

Just as the tankers and gunners were wondering how to deal with these Galia tanks that had entered the formation.

The Galia tank fired.

Angry armor-piercing projectiles were fired at the most vulnerable sides and rear of the Emperor's chariot.

"When!when!when!"

But an astonishing scene emerged.

At the risk of being destroyed, the Galia chariot rushed into the Imperial chariot formation, only to discover that the reality was even more cruel than they had imagined.

"Captain! Our main guns can't penetrate the enemy's side and rear armor at close range! Ask for instructions!

............

"When!when!when!"

Just when they heard the sound of the Galia army's chariot cannons firing, the emperor's charioteers thought they were going to be washed in blood.

But after a few crisp sounds, they realized that the Empire's thickened defensive armor around the infantry fighting vehicle in order to block the defense of the anti-tank dragon gun was actually just enough to defend against the approaching fire of the Galia tank.

The Galia chariot posed no threat to the emperor's heavy chariots.

This made the emperor **, who was originally in anxiety and confusion, proudly regroup.

"Haha! Order the chariot unit to quickly retreat and let the infantry"

"Boom!"

Just as one of the squadron leaders was redeploying his troops, his car was hit by a slender hollow armor-piercing bullet.

This time, the armor that saved their lives failed to save them again.

The armor on the outer wall of the fuel tank on the right side of the turret was broken, and the high-temperature and high-pressure metal stream rushed into the fuel tank, causing a shocking explosion.

The entire flame-filled fuel was ignited along with the fuel oil, and the camel heavy tank was instantly roasted into a roasted camel.

The powerful 122 shells continued to occur, and the shells affected the surrounding tanks and combat vehicles.

"What's going on?!Where did the shells hit?!"

The emperor around the broken chariot felt like he had just crawled out of hell and was pushed back by this cannon.

They had poor visibility and did not know exactly how the heavy tank had been broken.

"Bump-boom!"

Immediately after the first explosion, another two-wire tank was destroyed and exploded and burned.

Then two more exploded at about the same time.

Two of them are command vehicles with dual antennas. That is, the squadron commander car.

............

"This is car No. 301! Confirm the destruction of the enemy's left flank captain's car!"

"This is car No. 201! Confirm the destruction of an enemy avant-garde tank!"

"This is car No. 101! Confirm the destruction of a command vehicle!"

"This is car 001!

The enemy's losses were caused by nothing else, but the firing effect of the three squadron leaders and the captain's vehicle, a total of four long-barreled Type 4H combat vehicles.

At first, in order to ensure the ease of repair and balance during training.

The four men have long been riding in Type 4 chariots.

After the use of hollow armor-piercing shells, an armor-piercing weapon.

The 75-mm gun of the H model was even more powerful.

When the other Galia tanks were unable to penetrate the enemy tanks, the emperor's latest camel heavy tank was destroyed.

Just after the Galia chariot that broke into the enemy formation disrupted the enemy formation, the four captains took advantage of the enemy's dazzling opportunity to quickly find two captains and destroy them, so that the two squadron chariots on the left flank of the front line and the avant-garde emperor ** fell into a state of confusion and leaderlessness.

"Attention! A Galia tank of unknown model has been found on the flank! No! It's two bombs!"

The four captains gathered together and thrust a sharp knife into the left flank of the enemy formation, which was in disarray.

Use those light chariots that constantly detour and shoot at high speed to disrupt the emperor's chariot to confuse the emperor's chariot, so that they can't figure out who destroyed the destroyed chariot at all.

One after another, you heard the sound of your own chariot being destroyed and the scorching flames of the typical flame-breathing fuel.

The left wing of the emperor was in chaos, and the chaos began to spread to the rearguard.

"Open the hood! there must be a special Gallia chariot attacking us. ”

The captain of the Guards Squadron observed that the shells of the Gallia tanks could not penetrate the armor behind the back of his tank when firing at close range, and he sensed that these constantly wandering light tanks were just a trick, and that the real killer was someone else.

"What are you doing?!Immediately incinerate the enemy with a flamethrower!"

At this time, the captain roared an order from the radio.

"Yes! Burn the enemy immediately!"

There are two radio stations in the captain's car. One is the radio station between captains.

One is the radio station of the whole team or each squadron.

This time, the captain felt the seriousness of the situation, and directly issued an order to all the vehicles through the radio below, regardless of whether they were injured by mistake or not, and force the Galia chariot back first.

"Whew!"

Compared to a fixed turret, the rotating Spitfire is much more flexible, and because it is a Spitfire weapon, the camel tank is also relatively resistant to flames when designed, and its only weakness is the upper exhaust vent.

And the Gallia chariot was completely unable to withstand such a fire-breathing attack.

Just driving in the sea of fire for ten seconds is almost gone.

"Immediately retreat, disengage, get out of the fire!"

Seeing several fire-covered soldiers crawling out of the flamethrower-sprayed Galia chariots, Captain Maenstein knew that it was impossible to fish in troubled waters with bayonets.

Use the newly created fire to quickly remove the useless Gallia chariots.

Only four Type IV tanks were left that could fight in a single battle.

"This is car 001, and each car reports the number of crashes. ”

"Three cars on the 101st. ”

"Two cars in No. 201, one captain's car. ”

"Three cars No. 301, one captain's car. ”

"Bang! No. 001 destroyed four cars, one captain's car!"

Using the tactics of blindfolding, the enemy was taken by surprise, and the armored brigade destroyed 12 enemy heavy tanks, including three captains.

And the armored brigade itself lost 14 light combat vehicles.

"Let the light tanks hide in the woods to support the rest of the region!

The current situation is such that four Type 4 tanks completely provoke the girder, while the number of opposing tanks is -

........................

"There are no less than 40 more. ”

Looking at the heavy tanks in the fire, which gradually began to turn in this direction, a cold sweat broke down on the heads of Lunemmeier and the others.

"Hit a 122 grenade...... I don't know if I can bear it. ”

"Don't worry, with the carbon built-in layer, it's 155 that hits us no problem. ”

"I'm talking about tanks. ”

"We can't retreat! Behind us are our infantry! Their anti-tank weapons can't fight against this heavy tank!"

This vehicle is designed to deal with infantry in terms of shape and configuration.

Once the tank support is lost, the infantry of the Panzer Brigade will be dealt a heavy blow to the remnants of the enemy.

Not only that, but if the enemy breaks through the northwest defense line, then the enemy will definitely continue to want to advance in depth.

That's really dangerous.

It was only considered for a very short time.

The four captains made their judgments.

"Stop them! Protect the infantry!"

........................

"Captain, four vehicles of unknown model have been found ahead!"

Soon, Emperor **, who passed through the sea of fire, found four Type 4 chariots blocking the road.

"Such a long barrel...... The caliber is not small either...... I see, they are the ones who destroyed our chariots...... Stop! Prepare for fire! Prepare for ......"

"Bump-!"

But before these tanks could be ready, the Type 4 tanks that had been aimed at them fired first, and then immediately launched at full speed and ran in the opposite direction of the forest without confirming the results.

"You didn't go into the forest?!"

After discovering the movement of the four chariots, Emperor ** was very surprised, according to common sense, the disadvantaged side should immediately hide in the area of vision instead of driving to the open area.

Looking at the infantry who were already stuck in the back, the emperor understood.

"They're trying to make sacrifices to keep us from protecting the infantry!

At this time, the emperor's ** armored soldiers also understood that only these four unknown tanks with slender barrels could threaten their operations, as long as they were eliminated, the victory would be the emperor's.

"Turn the muzzle! Aim at the Gallia chariot! Fire!"
