Chapter 443: The Collision of Iron and Blood
The dusk that falls from the sky seems to set the horizon on fire. On the endless Gobi Desert, scrapped steel and slowly burning flames can be seen everywhere.
At the same time that the "Cloud Dragonfly" launched a surprise attack on the airport, nearly a hundred kilometers east of the Lost Valley, the tank battle between the Alliance Skeleton Corps and the Falcon Kingdom's First Armored Motorcycle Thousand Men had come to an end.
The 40 heavy tanks of the Falcon Kingdom's first armored motorcycle thousand people are almost all wiped out!
The only four vehicles were also broken down on the Gobi Desert because their engines and tracks were damaged, and they could only wait for rescue that would arrive at an unknown time......
In front of the 60 megajoule electromagnetic gun, whether it is 1 meter thick equivalent armor or 1.5 meters thick equivalent armor, it is as fragile as paper paste.
After all, before the Prosperous Era, it was a naval gun placed on a battleship!
Against a tank that runs on land, whether it is a hit on the head or a turret, only one shot is enough.
Coincidentally, the commander of the legion misjudged the strength of the Alliance's firepower and stretched the line too long, causing the Alliance's armored cluster to pierce the Falcon Kingdom's thin and paper-like defense line almost without hindrance.
Heavy tanks, which were scattered on a dozen kilometers of front, could only leave the bunker with a hard head, turn around, and assemble while pursuing.
Due to the huge disparity in range between the two sides and the relatively open terrain of the Gobi Desert, these heavy tanks soon became mobile iron coffins.
And because the mobility is so poor, they don't even have a chance to dodge when they are locked by the electromagnetic cannon, so they can only be called by 60 megajoules.
Faced with no chance of victory, many crew members of the Falcon Kingdom simply gave up treatment, and once they were targeted by the electromagnetic gun, they immediately abandoned the car and fled.
Anyway, it's a tank given by the suzerain.
If it is scrapped, they don't need to feel distressed.
At least a third of the Conqueror Ten were "paralyzed" by this.
In contrast, it was 50 Conqueror V light tanks, which caused a lot of trouble for the Alliance with their superb mobility.
However, a light tank is a light tank after all, and no matter how strong the mobility is, it cannot make up for the disadvantages in armor and caliber. It doesn't even take a tank destroyer to shoot, a 155mm high-explosive round is enough to take it away.
The vast majority of Conqueror 5 was not damaged by the penetration of its armor, but was killed by the overpressure effect of the high-explosive shells.
The Mole even believed that if it weren't for the fact that their mission was to the airfield, they would have been able to wipe out the armored force unscathed if they had been given enough time and ammunition......
However, things don't always go as planned.
It's the norm that plans don't keep up with change.
If the legion had expected that they would be able to mount a 60 megajoule electromagnetic cannon on a tank, it would definitely not have put up this kind of "long snake" formation to defend them, but would definitely gather all the armored units together like an alliance, and quickly advance to a 2-kilometer range by taking advantage of the gap between tank destroyer fire.
If the Coalition had anticipated that the Prowler Tank had been deployed to the province of Luoxia, and had known through intelligence that it was waiting in the direction of the Skeleton Corps, it would have delayed the start of the entire operation...... Although this will increase the risk of a nuclear strike.
Pity......
There are no ifs in the reality of this game.
As the Prowler tank entered the fray, the Skeleton Corps, which had broken through fairly smoothly, soon fell into a bitter battle.
Even twenty kilograms of steel needles, 60 megajoules of muzzle kinetic energy, could not penetrate the Meissner-effect armor of the Prowler tank.
After a fierce fight to the death, the only five tank destroyers of Type 2B were finally destroyed by the impenetrable monster.
On the official website forum of "Wasteland Online", there was a wailing voice.
There are constantly players who have been "kicked offline" by the boss on the forum, typing and posting to call it unscientific.
"! Isn't that thing bleeding?! β
"I it at least twice, and I didn't shake it for a while!"
"Sixty megajoules! Can't you wear the ship's guns?! β
ββ¦β¦ It's time to push things away. β
"Planning! Call Planning! β
"I guess it's the dog planning to do that!"
Probably working overtime, I don't have time to visit the forum.
Until the end, Ah Guang was not brought out by them.
And in the eyes of many people, this also confirms their speculation - "it must be the dog light that is abusing them".
And in addition to the scolding people, there are also many people who are analyzing the weakness of that armor.
"What the hell is going on with the turtle shell?"
"The setting on the official website is focused on superconductivity...... But it didn't say exactly how it worked, and it didn't say what the principle was. β
"Superconductivity...... So cannonballs that can conduct electricity can't do it? β
"I don't know. Moreover, the quality projectile of the electromagnetic cannon has strong conductivity, and our few rounds looked like they hit, and we didn't touch anyone if we didn't touch them. β
The so-called Meissner effect is the repulsion of the magnetic field by superconductors during the phase transition from a normal state to a superconducting state.
According to the description on the official website, when the shell approaches the vicinity of the Prowler tank, it will phase change to a superconducting state for some reason.
At the same time, the Prowler tank itself is also providing a magnetic field, and the superconductors entering the magnetic field will form a lossless induced current on the surface, thus creating a magnetic field of the same magnitude as the tank and in the opposite direction.
Ostensibly, the shell was bounced off by the armor, but in fact the shell did not touch the armor at all, but was bounced away by the magnetic field at an infinitely close distance.
With a wedge-shaped armor with a large inclination, ordinary kinetic weapons cannot break its defense at all, and at most it can scrape the surface of the armor.
The only thing that makes the moles happy is that although the boss battle is not going well, the balance of victory is still on their side overall.
The goal of the mission was not to wipe out all enemy tanks in the encounter, but to raid the airfield on the north side of the Lost Valley, 150 kilometers away from the battlefield.
Although the "Prowler" is strong and unreasonable, it is only one after all.
His last order to "break up into pieces" and "disperse forward" still had some effect in the end, and there were not as many good brothers who were destroyed and lost as expected.
After paying a huge number of casualties, 15 No. 2 tanks managed to get out of the communication range.
For the remaining nearly 100 kilometers of off-road sections, two to three hours should be enough.
If nothing else, they should be able to arrive before the sun sets.
As the one who stayed behind to stop the pursuers, the only thing he could do now was trust his teammates......
The mole, which shook its dazed head and had been disconnected for a while, finally woke up from the coma with a crumbling consciousness.
Half an hour earlier, his tank had been hit by a shot.
At that time, he didn't feel it at all, he just felt the soles of his feet tremble, and then there was a line of light blue pop-ups in front of him.
And it's the kind that can't even go back!
Since the No. 60 electromagnetic gun used by the No. 2B car is equipped with a metallic hydrogen battery, it is basically impossible to survive once it is penetrated.
So after finding out that he was disconnected, the mole almost lost all hope for reconnection.
However, the fact that there was no resurrection CD countdown in the helmet still rekindled a glimmer of hope in his already cold heart.
Perhaps it was this persistence that moved the server, and after nearly half an hour of trying, he returned to the tank in a trance.
It's really connected!
Finding that the "lighter" did not explode, the mole did not have time to rejoice, and without the slightest hesitation, he immediately went off the assembly line and called the other two crew members up.
But now it seems......
The only one who seemed to succeed in connecting back with him was the driver sitting in front of his left leg.
As for the one in front of his right leg, he had turned into a pool of slimy blood and charred flesh, and I am afraid that even the administrator would not recognize him.
"Mommy......"
The mole smacked its tongue.
Even with the protection of the sensory filter, looking at the bloody corpse, he still couldn't control a tingling of his scalp.
If this game can get the version number, his name is written backwards!
Holding back the churning in his stomach, he began to check the tank's condition.
The shell hit the lower armor on the right side of the hull, and although it pierced the sturdy body, along with the engine and power-based human loader, it luckily did not damage the turret.
The fuel tank on the left side is still good, which excludes the risk of fire.
The metallic hydrogen battery was on the right side, and it was only a little bit missed by the shell, but fortunately it was just a little bit off.
The mole tried to charge the capacitor, but found that the charging switch did not respond at all, and the indicator light was red.
Confirming the damage, he immediately shouted at the driver in front of his left leg.
"The capacitor is broken! What's going on over there? β
"The engine is scrapped! The transmission structure of the chassis is broken, and it can be directly returned to the factory and furnace...... Grass, there are infantry outside," huddled in the middle of the twisted steel, the driving physique player brought his eyes closer to the observation hole, and shouted nervously, "It's the people of the Falcon Kingdom!" β
Hearing that the infantry was approaching outside, the mole's heart suddenly tightened, and he held the periscope and turned due west to the front of the car.
I saw that on the sand dunes over there, nine people limped down, and it should be the light infantry of the first armored motorcycle thousand people of the Falcon Kingdom in terms of clothing and weapons.
With rifles in their hands and anti-tank bazookas on their backs, they were carefully dispersed towards the No. 2 tank destroyer, which had not exploded.
The Adam's apple moved, and the mole removed the LD-50 carbine hanging from the inside of the turret and unfolded the foldable butt.
ββ¦β¦ You go fix the capacitors, and I'll fix them. β
"Fix the capacitor?!" The physique player was slightly stunned, and looked back at the mole in surprise, "What's the use of fixing that thing?" The metal warhead of the electromagnetic cannon can't break the defense of that thing at all. β
Just now, five electromagnetic cannons were firing at the same time, and the pestle didn't move there.
According to the analysis of the forum buddies, the armor is probably designed for electromagnetic guns, as long as it is a metal warhead, it is Tianke, there is no way at all.
As for armor-piercing shells, high-explosive shells......
They've tried everything they can before.
"It's just a chance to ...... anyway," said the mole, "and it doesn't necessarily work, but I'd like to try again." β
"Okay......"
The player nodded, squeezing effortlessly out of the deformed chair to find the toolbox next to the loader.
The damaged capacitor is on the right foot of the loader.
Looking at the blood carbonized by the electric current and the threads that had been completely severed, the player's scalp tingled.
Overhead, the sound of a mole was heard.
"Can it be fixed?"
He said stiffly.
ββ¦β¦ I try my best. β
"I'll leave it to you."
The mole took a deep breath, gripped the handle of the turret hatch with his left hand, and grasped the LD-50 with his right hand, intending to drill out of the turret and fire before the infantrymen could stick to it.
However, at this moment, not far from the outside of the tank hull, there was a sudden burst of gunfire.
Hearing the gunshot, the mole was suddenly surprised.
The voice of LD-47?!
After fighting for so long, he didn't even hear his family's gunshots wrong.
The mole did not hesitate and immediately turned the periscope in the direction where the gunfire came.
In front of the right side of the tank hull, Irena was lying on the sand dune, using the LD-47 in her hand to fire at the Falcon Kingdom soldiers below the dunes.
In addition to Lao Na, the Elven King Fugui and the other three armored grenadiers of the Skeleton Corps were also fired.
As infantry players of the Skeleton Corps, they are relatively high on the server in terms of combat awareness and sequence level.
The ten-man squad below the dunes was caught off guard by the condescending fire, and was quickly beaten into a sieve and collapsed in a pool of blood.
Seeing that the crisis was resolved, the mole stretched out his index finger and tapped on the VM, and immediately switched to Irena's communication channel.
"Lao Na! What's going on over there? β
"We're all OK, we just wiped out a team...... it? You're alive? Hearing the sound of the mole, Irena, who was changing bullets, was suddenly startled.
Just now he was lying in the foxhole, and was stunned by a high-explosive bomb, and when he went offline, he happened to see the post posted by the mole on the forum, and thought that this guy was gone.
As a result, good guys, they were connected!
When did the recovery ability of the agility system become as strong as the constitution system?!
"Hehe, it's been a long time since the non-chieftain has been in office, isn't it normal for the European Emperor to come back once? There seems to be something wrong with the hearing, but it's not a big problem, it's just that our tank is probably scrapped, and my driver is still repairing it......"
Emperor Ou is okay once.
Irena couldn't help but look a little weird.
Isn't it a blood loss to use Ou Qi to save your life?
It's better to save it for the draw......
Now, though, is not the time to complain.
Seeing that the mole was still alive, he immediately asked.
"Can you fix your tank?!"
"The engine should be hopeless, but the on-board capacitors should be okay, and all the broken wires will be connected...... Probably. Seeing that the eldest brother who repaired the car turned around and shook himself with a roll of his eyes, the mole added another word in the back.
Irena swallowed.
"That'...... What now? β
The mole took a deep breath and calmed down.
"Can you see the Prowler?"
Irena picked up the binoculars that hung around her neck and looked around.
After a long pause, he replied.
"Invisible...... Wait, there's a lot of smoke in the southwest, and it's heading to our side! β
"Well, I guess I heard your gunshot, and I guess he'll come over to take a look." The mole said.
The elf king Fugui, who was lying next to Irena, also looked over there and muttered a sentence.
"It's weird...... Isn't that pimple engine hot? I can't see the heat source at all. β
He thought it was strange just now.
The other tanks were hot and glowing white.
The Prowler was the only one that was dark in his "thermal vision".
"It's normal not to see the heat source, but it's not normal to be able to see."
The mole took a deep breath and slowly continued, "Listen...... Whether it succeeds or not, we have one more chance now, and only once. β
The brethren of the regiment were silent, waiting for his orders.
The mole paused.
"Where you are now, there is a broken down light tank on the northwest side...... If I'm not mistaken, it was destroyed by 155. β
Irena asked immediately.
"And then?"
Mole: "Find a way to activate it!" β
Irena looked confused.
"I'm ...... I've never driven a tank. β
As he spoke, he quickly looked at the elf king Fugui on the side, trying to see a reliable expression on this guy's face, but the latter also looked confused.
The Coalition's truck is not difficult to drive, as long as you have your hands.
But tanks are another matter.
Not to mention that it was not their own tank, but the opposite one.
But......
It doesn't matter to the mole.
He didn't expect the Conqueror V's 60mm "hose" to pose any threat to the Prowler tank.
Taking a deep breath, he said seriously.
"It doesn't matter! Just listen to me......"
β¦β¦
On the Gobi Desert.
Hearing that the infantry was engaged, Stan commanded the pilot, reversed course, and headed for the sand dunes to the northeast.
There was a wrecked Union tank there.
However, unlike other tanks, it did not burst into flames like a lighter, but simply lay down under the reverse slope of the dunes.
As the coalition tanks scattered and fled, Stan didn't have time to confirm the damage, so he handed it over to the infantry of the 1st Motorized Thousand.
However, he never thought of it......
This garbage can't even do this little bit of work.
ββ¦β¦ Eleventh Infantry Team, report your situation immediately! β
There was only a sizzling electric current on the other end of the communication channel.
From the beginning of the gunfire just now to the present, he has waited for a long time and has not waited for a response.
Stan's eyes burn with anger and he can't help but curse.
"These ...... of waste"
Throwing the communicator onto the shelf next to the kettle, he repressed the switch, activated the Meissner Effect Armor, and ordered the driver.
"Target northeast, keep thirty yards forward!"
The driver replied cleanly.
"Roger!"
There was not a single figure in the rolling yellow sand in the distance, but he could not be mistaken by the gunfire of a few minutes ago, and he guessed that the driver who had climbed out of the tank was in his dying throes.
Stan didn't take the few fish that slipped through the net to heart, and what made him angry was that the infantry couldn't even clean up the battlefield.
What a waste to give the tanks of His Majesty the Great Marshal to these wastes!
The goal is getting closer.
With his eyes firmly on the sight, Stan kicks the driver's seat, who understands that the tank stops.
Not far away.
At the foot of the Dune Mountain, 2 kilometers away, the wreckage of a tank, painted in desert color, lies quietly.
There was a large twisted hole in the armor under the head, and it was directly pierced.
The turret slumped there motionless, just as it had been more than an hour before.
With this level of damage, there is no doubt that the tank will be scrapped, but the occupants inside will not necessarily be killed directly, and there is still a half chance that they will survive.
Looking at the ten corpses 200 meters directly in front of the wreckage of the tank, Stan smiled coldly.
There are no footprints around the tank.
There was no blood stain either.
Eighty percent of the surviving crew members were still hiding in the tank and pretending to be dead.
"High-explosive reloading." Stan orders in a cold voice, intending to send his opponent on one last ride.
"Roger!"
The loader, sitting inside the car, quickly pulled out the armor-piercing shell from the chamber and replaced it with a shell with an orange warhead and stuffed it into the chamber.
However, just as Stan is about to refill the wreckage of the tank with a high explosive, the side armor is suddenly shot.
Whewββ!
A short, crisp sound scraped across the car.
It wasn't so much a cannon as a toothpick scraped on the blackboard.
As you can guess from the voice, the caliber of this shell is probably less than 100 mm.
Stan snorts impatiently and motions for the driver to turn the car 60 degrees to the left, towards the direction where the cannonball is flying.
However, when he saw the tank through the scope, he was slightly stunned.
Conqueror 5?
"That's our tank?"
The driver also notices the problem and looks back at Stan in confusion.
Stan frowned, but quickly realized something, and sneered and opened the weapon safe.
ββ¦β¦ A few dying bugs. β
Who does the 60-millimeter water pipe look down on?
Still lying there motionless.
I guess these people didn't even figure out how to drive the tank!
Meanwhile, in the Conqueror V light tank that was being targeted, Irena was scrambling to stuff shells into the chamber.
While pulling down the bolt, he didn't forget to shout to the rich brother sitting on the gun position.
"Did you hit it?"
"Hit!" His eyes were stuck to the sight, and the elf king Fugui replied casually.
Irena asked curiously.
"Does it work?"
"Yes...... A hammer! β
Looking at the Prowler Tank that pointed the barrel at it, the Elf King's face turned green in an instant.
Although he knew that he would not die, although he knew that this was a game world, he was pointed at by the cannon of the black hole, which still made him panic.
The terrifying sense of coercion went straight to the depths of the soul......
It was as if he had seen the end of his being blown into a pile of slag.
Nima...... Is this mole good or not? β
Looking at the stiff expression on his face, Irena had already guessed something, and said with a subtle expression.
"There's no point in asking about this, I can only trust him once...... In short, another shot before you die? β
βMMPβ¦β¦ Ahhh Grass! The elf king Fugui scolded and scolded, and roared angrily, "Lao Tzu fought with you!" β
In that moment, the flash of fire flickered, and he almost reflexively pulled the trigger to fire.
The tongue of fire that erupted from a small sixty-millimeter water hose almost licked the warhead of that high-explosive bomb.
The flames of the explosion engulfed the turret in an instant!
The two of them didn't even hear the sound of the explosion coming from the steel, and they were sieveed by the debris that had collapsed inside the steel and shrapnel poured into the hull.
This time, regardless of whether it is the agility system or the constitution system, they are all dead and can't die again.
Butβ
Stan, who had destroyed them, didn't have time to mock his opponent's inadequacy, and the sneer that hung on his lips froze on his face forever.
The angular wedge-shaped armor folded inward in a twisted position, and the 20-kilogram "steel needle" struck the hull in two like mallets struck on a rice cake.
The last frame that lingers on his retina is a blown up turret and a detonated flame.
Until death......
He didn't even know what was going on.
At the same time, in the scrapped No. 2B tank destroyer, electric sparks were jumping, and the power brothers, who had been dead for more than an hour, were fluttering their bloody legs back to the light.
The capacitor that has just been repaired is completely scrapped this time.
The physique driver who was lying next to the equipment was also convulsed by electricity, and it took him a while to come back to his senses, and he almost couldn't come back.
Shook his head.
As soon as the player regained consciousness, he scrambled to the driver's window and anxiously snapped his eyes up.
When he saw the burning fire on the dunes, he was shocked.
ββ¦β¦ it!? β
Blurting out a national curse, he jerked his head back at the regimental commander sitting under the turret.
"Became ......?"
"Well......" The mole was also choked by electricity, but because of the distance, it was not as exaggerated as him.
"Awesome !!" The player swallowed, clenched his fists with excitement and asked, "Brother, how?" β
The mole, leaning back in the seat, completely relaxed his tense shoulders and spoke to him patiently.
"The Meissner effect is not only applied to superconductors close to the magnetic field, but also to superconductors far away from the magnetic field...... So at the moment of firing the cannon, the field must have been lifted, otherwise the phase change shells would not have been able to fly out at all. It has two options, either turn off the magnetic field or turn off the field that causes the conductor to undergo a phase change. β
"Either way, as long as Newton's coffin board is still covered...... That's the best time to shoot. β
"Just fire the moment it fires, just hit it before its armor reworks...... There is hope that it will be destroyed. β
After a pause, he continued.
"Of course...... This is just my speculation. β
Thankfully, it's the Meissner Effect Armor.
If it's a biased shield, then this kind of thing is beyond the scope of high school physics.
If he doesn't even understand the principle, he's really out of a rut.
Although he was confused, the physique player still swallowed.
ββ¦β¦ But you guessed it. β
The mole nodded and smiled weakly.
"To be precise, it's the right ......"
Without the protection of the Meissner Effect Armor, no matter how thick the alloy armor is, it is no more than a piece of paper in front of a sixty megajoule cannon.
The moment the index finger releases the switch.
He felt like his back was soaked with sweat, but he still had a relieved smile on his face.
Despite the heavy casualties, the Skeletons eventually wiped out the opposing tank units and even destroyed the Prowler, which was almost impossible to destroy......
Although it was impossible to get to the airport on time, it was the best result he could achieve.
At least 15 tanks were reinforced.
And the hardest prowler has been solved.
With the micro-manipulation of the "ace pilot", it should not be a problem to hold on for a few minutes.
I don't know if the manager can see his efforts, but he's already seen the glittering pop-up window in his hallucination.
[Congratulations to the "Canyon on the Run"...... Wait for a group of players to take the first kill of the "Prowler" tank! γ
To be able to leave such a line on the monument of the Alliance-
It's worth it!
β¦β¦
On the other side, some distant and peaceful world.
No matter how fierce the battle on the front line is, the atmosphere here is always the most relaxed, and it is a common harbor for players and cloud players.
Irena, who has been offline, has already eaten melons with everyone in the forum.
Hearing that the mole was planning to single-handedly take on the prowler, the cloud players who were still discussing the weakness of the boss just now asked Professor Yang to come over and open a bet for everyone.
Irena: "Don't gamble, the mole hasn't come down for so long, I estimate that eighty percent of it has been done, isn't it a gift of money at this time." (Funny)"
At this time, the mosquito suddenly interjected in a humble manner.
"How do you know that he's not embarrassed to go to the forum because he's embarrassed?"
Night Ten: "Holy! Makes sense! β
Xinghe didn't fall asleep: "Ahem, big brothers of the Skeleton Corps, what about you?" The tank fell into a pit? I'm going to chew the gum to rubber. β
Irena: "Ahem, we encountered an armored division, but we've already dealt with it...... By the way, why did you come down? What's going on with you? β
Xinghe didn't fall asleep: "Hey, Mofa, we were bitten by a fighter jet, and we dodged a round of cannons and a missile that I don't know what it is." β
Raven: "Isn't that a nuclear bomb about to take off?" Ξ£(γγγ; )β
Fujito: "!! β
Less calf: "Holy!?" β
The peep screen life professional players were blown up in an instant.
Xinghe didn't fall asleep: "Ahem, I fired the last missile to the airport before it was disconnected, although the range was a bit over...... But no problem, it shouldn't be a big deal! β
Elf King Fugui: "A missile? Is it powerful enough? β
Xinghe didn't fall asleep: "Metallic hydrogen charge, brother!" That's metallic hydrogen! It has to be enough! β
You don't even have to hit the plane, as long as you blow up a crater on the runway, the plane will naturally not be able to fly.
Irena: "Hey, that's good. By the way, what about the falling feathers? Why didn't you see that guy? (Funny)"
The galaxy does not dream: "emmm...... I don't know, I'm wondering. β
