Chapter 459： Steel collision

The speed of the sound is very slow, so you can only see a ball of fire coming out of the opposite muzzle, black smoke rising, only when the distance is close, the shell almost comes from the sound, other than that, it is all The shell comes first, but the sound is still behind!

At a distance of one kilometer, this has completely subverted the understanding of French tank soldiers.

When launching a grenade, it is normal to hit a few kilometers, but when launching an armor-piercing projectile, in this era, almost all are within 500 meters. If it is far away, there is no accuracy at all!

Needless to say, in this era, even in later generations, those old tanks without advanced sighting systems, such as the 59 tank, can fire normally within 500 meters.

Now, a kilometer away, the German tank is about to open fire? This is a bluff, right?

This thought only lasted for a second in their minds. One kilometer away, the S-35 tank that they thought was safe suddenly seemed to be hit hard by something. It trembled back, and then there was a loud bang.

In fact, in recent years, Germany has been developing advanced armor-piercing projectiles, but after all, there is no threat for the time being. The existing blunt steel-core armor-piercing projectiles are enough to destroy almost all tanks.

Therefore, they are now using ordinary armor-piercing ammunition. Once new ammunition is released, it is easy to be imitated by opponents and cause more damage to German tanks.

The rotating blunt-headed armor-piercing projectile encountered the armor of the s-35 tank. The blunt tip provided a positive effect. Under the huge impact energy, it directly penetrated the main armor of the tank.

Even ordinary armor-piercing projectiles can penetrate more than 100 millimeters at a distance of 1,000 meters. French tanks can't stop them at all!

Compared to its power, what is more terrifying is its accuracy. This is a distance of one kilometer. In this way, the opposite tank was killed. In an instant, the French tank soldiers lost their final sanity.

Where is a war? This is simply death!

Put in reverse gear and continue running quickly!

The S-35 tank in the front was frightened by Nespel's attack, and De Gaulle at the back suddenly broke into cold sweat on his head.

The Germans have come here, can they block the opponent?

"Order, attack the opponent's left wing!" De Gaulle gritted his teeth and said.

When it is unable to penetrate the opponent, it must go to the side of the opponent. This is common sense that every armored soldier should know!

After all, the armor of a tank cannot be the same everywhere, otherwise the tank will be an iron lump and will not be able to move at all. The tank is used for charge and battle, so the front armor is always the thickest, and the side armor is thinner.

If you can't penetrate the front, then hit the side!

Following his order, the B-tank troops continued to advance, and they all turned right, wanting to attack from the opponent's left flank.

However, the s-35 tank unit is still disintegrating. After all, the still burning tank is a living example. Their tanks can't stop the opponent's blows. They stay here and die.

For this kind of work, let the stronger Type B tank come!

Just as the Type B tanks continued to move forward and were about to encircle from the side, the number of German tanks on the opposite side was increasing!

One, two, three, the leading tank unit, after crossing the bridge, Nespel did not continue to wait. His battle had just begun.

Charge, rush up, and kill the French tank!

This is the collision of steel and steel!

Nespel listened to his own Tan Kronlon's voice and commanded calmly, 800 meters ahead, two close positions to the right, type B tank, fire!

"Boom!" The tank gun roared again.

At this time, the tank on the opposite side braked suddenly, so the shell splashed down in front of the opponent's car body without causing any damage.

The other party is also experienced!

In fact, even in later generations, if there is a tank battle, the hit rate will not be very high. For example, 50% of the hit rate is an impossible number. Regardless of the computer’s hit rate, it will be greatly in actual combat. reduce.

In this era, the hit rate of tanks is even lower. It is a common phenomenon that the two armies are fighting, and the tanks of both sides are galloping vertically and horizontally, stopping continuously, firing, and shells flying across. At the end of the battle, hundreds of shells were fired, possibly leaving the wreckage of a dozen tanks.

In contrast, the German tank soldiers' hit rate is already quite high, but this is not exactly the case. When encountering a cunning opponent, their hit rate begins to drop.

In this case, Nespel had been prepared for a long time, and he didn't care: "Blunt armor-piercing bullets, reload."

This time, the distance between the two sides was very close. At a distance of 600 meters, Nespel's tank fired again.

The roaring shells drew a beautiful arc and flew over. At the same time, the tank on the opposite side opened fire!

In this era, the tank gun that can penetrate the Panther tank has not appeared yet Faced with the shells fired by the opponent, Nespel did not dodge at all. In his vision, that car The target tank burst into flames in an instant.

Hit again!

Nespel was very satisfied, but the cannonball fired by the opponent didn't know where it flew, and there was no feeling.

"Rush, continue!" De Gaulle continued to shout loudly: "Get closer, we must be able to penetrate them."

With the destruction of the Type B tank, the fighting will on this side was also hit. Now, thanks to Charles de Gaulle's encouragement, this is the most tragic battle of the French armored soldiers!

However, just after De Gaulle had finished shouting, the roar behind him disappeared.

"What's the matter?" De Gaulle lowered his head and shouted inside.

"Engine failure!" the tanker shouted loudly.

The engine malfunctioned, which made De Gaulle's face suddenly changed.

This tank has a huge self-weight. For this reason, French engineers specially designed the engine. The engine was initially 250 horsepower and later increased to 307 horsepower. This is enough to drive the tank to the design speed.

However, the reliability of this engine is quite poor! Under the usual meticulous maintenance, various failures still occurred, but now, on the battlefield, it actually broke down again.

bad! The tank that has lost power is the opponent's live target!

With the loss of the power system, the power supply was also interrupted, the radio lost contact, and the surrounding B-tanks all had an ominous premonition.

what happened? Their command car stopped leaving, nor gave orders. Could it be that General de Gaulle was planning to run away? If he is going to run away, then other people are still fighting!

Moreover, where is this battle, it is simply to die, okay?

Finally, a Type B tank stopped, and then began to reverse.
