CHAPTER XXXV

The soldiers on both sides let out a frightened roar and opened fire, but out of fear and unpreparedness, many bullets flew and many of them hit their companions, and more soldiers were killed by their own men than by the enemy.

It was the same with tanks, the SS Tiger was less than a hundred meters away from the nearest T34 on the opposite side, and in a panic opened fire and the shells flew somewhere.

It was the same with the Soviet tanks, and what was even more tragic was that their heavy tanks did not reload as fast as the Tiger tanks, and everyone missed the first round of shells, while the second round of German tank fire had a result.

The Soviet Red Army fought hard to assault, and the T34 accelerated into the Tiger tank, while the JS2 heavy tank behind also tried to accelerate forward.

The German tanks retreated and turned to try to find cover, while the loaders went crazy and desperately tried to speed up the reload, and the gunners did not need to hesitate to stop firing at such a close distance, regardless of the fact that they were firing on the move.

And such a close distance is quite disadvantageous to the Tiger tank, the T34 only needs more than ten seconds to hit the Tiger, and the Russian tank has a numerical advantage, sacrificing a part of the T34 to hit the Tiger Tank, and the js2 and other T34 behind can take the opportunity to attack the entangled Tiger, especially the 122mm gun is not a joke Fafnier's radio station was full of screams and calls for help, so angry that he ripped off his headphones, and after thinking about it, he still put on the No. 223 car and wingman 225 who ordered him, No. 227 moved quickly according to the order given by the company commander just now.

The short twenty minutes were like twenty minutes for SS101 and 102 before the first out.

As a result of the fog both sides lost their aerial cover, and the artillery of both sides did not join the fire until they encountered the rear, and in the panic there was no distinction between the enemy and the enemy, and in twenty minutes the SS soldiers suffered heavy casualties, as did the Soviet Red Guards Tank Corps, and the two SS heavy tank battalions of the Tiger lost 15 in just twenty minutes, which were 40 at the beginning of the battle.

The same was true of the Soviet Red Army, the vanguard of the Guards Tank Corps at the beginning of the battle with more than 50 T34s and more than 20 JS2s, and more than a dozen reinforced assault guns, lost more than half of them in twenty minutes.

However, the Soviet army's front was short, and a steady stream of new tank units in the rear entered the battlefield to join the battle, and the whirlpool of battle became bigger and bigger.

When Favenier arrived at the battlefield, he saw the SS Tiger covering Tank No. 4 a thousand meters away, and retreating in confusion to find cover.

And more and more Russian tanks are closing in, constantly trying to get close to the tiger in hand-to-hand combat.

Favinir immediately ordered a stop and entertained the Russian tanks with fire from afar, with the priority target being JS2!

"11 o'clock direction JS2!1400 distance!Tungsten core armor-piercing bullet!Shoot!"

Favenir yelled.

The Tiger's body shook, dust rolled up in front of the car, and an 88 shell hit the JS2 in the distance, knocking it out, and soon the turret was blown into the air by the detonated ammunition, taking the lives of several nearby Soviet infantrymen.

Fafnier and his wingman, followed by other Tigers and No. 4 tanks that arrived one after another, opened fire from a distance, and the SS Tigers slowly retreated and opened fire fiercely after Favnier and they opened fire to interrupt the momentum of the Soviet army's approach, and for a time a large number of tanks of the Soviet Red Army were scattered on the battlefield in pieces of wreckage.

However, due to the short battle line, the Soviet army kept having new Soviet troops joining, and many Soviet tanks began to outflank the rear road of the German assault arrows, and the number of German tanks and Soviet tanks became more and more tragic.

But Favinier was brushing up on his own exploits, and one Soviet tank after another was reduced to wreckage under his guns, and he kept ordering forward, backward, turning, aiming, shooting, and so on.

His No. 223 tank not only fought frontally, but later appeared on the flanks to repel waves of Soviet tank attacks.

Soon, Ferdinand's destroyers also arrived, and these Ferdinand somehow did not stop at a distance to shoot at the Soviet tanks, but instead drove in one after another to shoot at the Soviet tanks.

Fafnier scolded when he saw this, and saw that Ferdinand, whose mobility was tragic, was surrounded by Soviet tanks, and he didn't even have time to rescue.

Soon, 4 of the more than 20 Ferdinand who participated in the battle could not move, and the other Ferdinand learned to be obedient and began to retreat and open up the distance to cover and shoot alternately.

At this time, the fierce battle has been going on for more than 2 hours, the field artillery of both sides has not stopped firing, the German wild bees have a considerable advantage in maneuvering, but the entire battlefield is obviously the Soviet heavy artillery occupies a numerical advantage, at this time there are more than 300 tanks in the apple orchard outside Prokhorovka into a pile, the specific number of Favinir can not be felt at all, the Soviet tanks occupy an obvious numerical advantage, but in the specific battle situation, it is the Germans who have suppressed the Soviet Red Army with the advantage of tank technology and the ability of the tankman。

At this time, the air power of both sides finally arrived at the battlefield, and they were strangled as soon as they came up.

Fafnier kept shooting, and silently calculated his results in his heart, "It's another T34, how many Russian tanks have I destroyed now?" It's too late to calculate, recall, 7 JS2, 6 T34, and other miscellaneous vehicles are too lazy to remember." Wait, what's on the other side?"

A huge figure appeared in his periscope, "Distance 2200! Isn't this KV2? No! It's much bigger than the KV2, and there are two small turrets in front? Small turrets! It's ........... mother*! Isn't this a drawing? KV5!"

Fafnier exclaimed, and the crew of the car heard it and asked, "Commander, what is the KV5? The new tank of the Russians?"

"No! I heard me wrong! I'm talking about the KV2!"

Favenir replied, staring at the monster in the periscope.

This monster is faster than his tiger!

The size was huge, and the barrel was clearly 152 caliber in proportion.

"Damn, isn't it supposed to be a 107mm gun?"

Favenir gritted his teeth.

"Forward! Until the railroad embankment in front of you stops! The turret is aimed at 1 o'clock! Is there any tungsten core armor-piercing shells? Reload now!"

Seeing that the big guy was approaching, the muzzle of the cannon shot fire, and a 152 shell exploded in a small forest.

"Sure enough, it's still the same Russian style, maybe ......... come!Let me see how thick your skin is?!"

Faveniel said harshly.

"The new Russian tank at 1100!1 o'clock!Aim at its observation tower!Shoot accurately!Shoot!"

"Ding"

With a bang, the cannonball hit the huge cannon shield of the KV5 and bounced off!

"Damn! Can't you be sure? Damn! Wasted a tungsten bomb! This is more expensive than your bastard pension!"

Faveniel yelled at the gunner, "Quick! Load a tungsten bullet!

Fortunately, the 152 shells were slow to load, and Fafnier's gunner took aim and fired another shot, at which time the other German tanks also spotted the big guy, and in a panic, they concentrated their fire, successfully diverting the attention of the KV5, but - this guy was really hard, and all the shells failed to penetrate this guy's armor.

The second tungsten bullet finally hit the KV5's observation turret accurately, piercing it...... KV5 stopped at once.

Subsequent shells fired by other Tigers finally managed to penetrate the immobile KV5 and destroy it.

Fafnier just breathed a sigh of relief........ put his eyes on the periscope to take a look, "I'm **! What is this!!Is it a multi-turret relic?!"

A shadow loomed in the distance from his field of vision.

Bigger body with front, middle, and rear turrets!

The front and rear turrets are clearly JS2 turrets, while the one in the middle is the huge KV5 turret!

There's even a small mast-shaped communication antenna on it!

And this thing has four tracks!

Slowly but resolutely crawl to the positions of the German tanks!

"Let me take a closer look"

Fafnir burst into tears, "This is really my sacred relic!"

He looked at the size of the thing through the periscope, "The length of the vehicle is estimated to be about 15 meters! The width is about 5 meters, and the height is more than 4 meters!

This thing is almost 3 km from the nearest German tank, but it has already begun to fire with the 152 gun in the center!

The German tanks also spotted the monster and began to fire back with the 88 gun, despite the distance.

Although the target was huge and not fast, most of the shells hit but it was completely useless!
