Although for some reason there were a bunch of people in the cruiser tank unit who wanted to watch the Pobru game with great interest, but—

This time, it can only be said that Hui Lisha was worried, and Yuhuali was happy in vain, because, two days later, Darjeeling did not approve this group of people to go together. To say that it is a scale of observation, at least to get the semi-finals.

After a period of daily and vehicle training, it will be time for the School of Truth (USSR) VS St. Gloriana Women's College (UK).

That night was the time when Willisa was in regular contact with Yelyusa.

This time, Urisa had to report on the vehicles and tactics that Darjeeling was preparing to fight.

This time, the combat power of St. Gloriana Women's College may have improved a lot compared to previous competitions, and Hui Lisha probably indirectly understood some of Katyusha's true appearance that she was ready to continue to retain her strength and surprise Hesse Peak, and she couldn't help but be a little worried.

The level of the chariot at St. Gloriana Women's College has skyrocketed, and it has to start with that race-

In the last Pole High School (Poland) vs Earl High School (Romania) battle lane match, Popu High School defeated Earl High School 5 Earl III., 3 Tank IV, and 2 LT38 Light Tanks with 5 25TP tanks, 3 Crusader tanks, 1 Cromwell Mk.VII., and 1 14TP tank.

You must know that this time, the Earl Academy's vote III. and IV have all been replaced with 50mm long-barreled guns and 75mm long-barreled cannons, and additional armor and skirts have been added according to the historical maximum, and the chariots on Bobru's side are still completely inferior.

In this case, the 5 III tanks of the Earl High School Striker were actually surrounded by a cluster of 25TP tanks from Popule in the hills.

Although the Tank III equipped with a 50mm long barrel should be able to wipe out the 25TP tank in one shot, and the 25TP tank as a multi-turret tank, the volume is really a bit large, and the Tank III should not be an opponent, but due to the discovery that the 14TP tank as a Bobru flag vehicle is near the encirclement, and at the same time, it is also worried that the enemy may continue to increase troops to encircle and suppress, Earl University sent all the German tank reinforcements to break the encirclement and break the enemy's flag car in one go.

If the 25TP tank was produced that year, the comprehensive performance is still okay, however, since it is an imitation of the Soviet T-28 tank, then the function is similar to the T-28 tank, although the tank gun modified from the anti-aircraft gun is selected, the penetration depth is higher than that of the howitzer carried by the T-28, and the armor has also reached the preliminary index of the T-28M. Then the opponent will not have any other results at all except scratch paint (the terrain that is favorable to the tank often covers the lower part of the armor that is weaker, so the difficulty of destroying the walking mechanism will increase), and the victory is proper, but the 50mm long-barreled gun is far behind.

Now both sides can casually penetrate each other, and at the same time, they can't resist the existence of the opponent's cannonball, and the fight is artillery.

The Earl's college wanted to stall for the arrival of reinforcements to flank the attack, and kept maneuvering - trying to dodge the shells, but not trying to shoot accurately on the move; Poblo High School seemed to be planning to shoot quickly and stand on the stump - this would be a high hit, but the III tank was not bad at power, and it was relatively small and not easy to hit.

It seems that the stalemate has come down, and it is not good for Bobru.

However, on the way to reinforce the IV tank cluster, 3 Crusader tanks were found on the high-speed detour of the cruiser tank, or a Crusader tank with all 76.2mm guns!

It is said that this kind of Crusader tank equipped with a 76.2mm gun appeared in the North African battlefield in World War II, and Rommel was really startled - the 75mm gun and the 76.2mm gun were the most used tank guns in that era (as far as the battlefield is concerned, it is not compared with the legendary 88 guns, 122 guns, etc.).

It's a premature death! Even such a light tank as a Crusader tank can carry 76 guns!

But originally in World War II, it was just the beginning that scared Rommel, this 76 gun is not similar to the 76.2mm 17-pounder gun or the long-barreled gun carried by Sherman, the howitzer can be used in the rules of the battle lane, but the penetration depth is still a little lower than the 57mm QF6-pounder gun that St. Gloriana is not too powerful -

It's really a guy who says it's okay to Popu, but looks like scrap metal to St. Gloriana.

The Earl's college was glad to have spotted the enemy's troops preparing to attack the flag wagon, and an exchange of fire ensued.

The battle in all aspects seems to be quite unfavorable to Bobru, but the audience with God's perspective can only say "hehehe" to the earl.

The Cromwell Mk.VII. cruiser, which was a hidden killer tank, had gone around the rear of the Earl's flag car from other ways.

Of course, Earl College did not let its guard down, and left the flag car on standby, and there was a tank of the same model near the flag car LT38 tank as an escort.

Cromwell Mk.VII. was rushing towards the flag car at high speed, and naturally he could not hide the movement and was discovered. Two LT38 tanks fired at it!

It's just that the front armor of the Cromwell Mk.VII. is also more than 100mm, how can the 38mm gun of the LT37 tank be impressed? You won't be able to sell the side unless you can get on the APCR, but the lane doesn't allow you to use this kind of shell (I haven't seen it in the canon set, but at least never seen in the anime).

Why did the flag car choose the weak LT38 tank, and only one weak LT38 tank was left as an escort?

This configuration also has the principle of standard tactics to follow, on the one hand, it is naturally inconvenient for the flag car to fight, and in order to make the front-line combat vehicle stronger, the level of the flag vehicle configuration must be weakened. In terms of echelon division, the same combat vehicles acting together is also conducive to the coordination of actions.

Each tactic has advantages and disadvantages. And Yaika took advantage of this shortcoming.

While the 25TP tank and the Crusader tank were maneuvering with the enemy's main German tank, the Cromwell Mk.VII. aimed his gun at the Earl's flag car, the LT38 tank, which was different from the one used by St. Gloriana, with a thinner barrel and a handsome muzzle brake.

This is a 75mm Mk.V. gun, the depth of penetration of the armor-piercing shell is slightly lower than that of the armor-piercing shell of the QF6-pounder gun and the armor-piercing shell of the 3.7-inch howitzer, and the power of the grenade is much higher than that of the QF6-pounder gun - there is no specialty, Bobru chose this gun only because it happened to be in stock there, and there was no need to order it, but the 75mm Mk.V. shell was more than enough to hit this kind of light tank.

Will the LT38 tank be able to retreat?

Retreat can't, the mobility of the Cromwell series tanks is superb. Even though it was much heavier than the LT38 tank, the Merlin-style engine made it soaring.

Even if another LT38 tank escort helped the flag car block a shot to cover it, it would not be able to save the tide of the battle.
