Nine Hundred and Fifty One Cold Eyes
A terrifying 122mm caliber armor-piercing projectile flew past the top of the turret of Rennes' King Tiger tank, and the scorching jet melted the machine gun bracket on the tank's turret and sent it flying. Apparently, the Soviets also knew the truth of killing you while you were sick. Seeing that Rennes' King Tiger tank did not continue to move, they immediately concentrated their firepower to kill another hot potato.
So after the Rennes crew lost power, they were attacked three times more than before in an instant. Large and small shells landed around the King Tiger tank, and some of them passed by without any risk.
Suddenly, a 76mm armor-piercing projectile hit the turret of the King Tiger tank directly, then turned a right angle on the armor, and flew directly into the sky. This shell from the t-34 tank was not able to penetrate the front armor of the Rennes tank. Compared with the powerful blow of the Stalin tank's 122mm caliber artillery, the t-34's attack can simply be called tickling.
This 76mm caliber shell hit the King Tiger tank, and it did not have the effect of penetrating and destroying it, but it made the engine of the King Tiger tank that had been extinguished roar again with the beating. This No. 113 King Tiger tank A puff of black smoke spewed out from the rear exhaust pipe of the tank, and the entire tank then backed up.
"Honey! I knew you could do it! I knew you were the best! I love you! Honey!" Bowman was so excited that he almost bowed his head and kissed the joystick beside him, laughing While yelling, it looks as crazy as if you won the lottery.
"Reverse! Bowman! Continue to reverse!" After Ren ordered Bowman, he gave Andre an order to continue firing: "Continue firing! Find a chance to kill as many Soviet tanks as possible! Tiger tank ammunition The base is not much, and the rest depends on our two King Tigers!"
Everyone seemed to be rejoicing at this moment. After all, King Tiger, as the main force in the battle, was able to recover his power, which was equivalent to providing the German army with a slight chance of winning. After all, the German tanks are at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers, and every loss of a tank here is a very serious weakening and blow to the German army.
The Rennes crew could rejoin the battle, and returned to the battle as a command tank, which greatly boosted the morale of the German army. Although everyone had no time to cheer or celebrate during the battle, it could be heard from the voices of everyone gradually calming down. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.
This is the role of the ace car team in the battle, and this is the courage that the commander brings to other personnel on the battlefield. As the Rennes tank retreated, the Germans fired another series of shells, destroying two Soviet Stalin tanks that had just flaunted their might.
"Boom!" Just when all the German crews were relieved that the Rennes crew was out of danger, a shell directly hit the Tiger tank not far behind the Rennes tank, and the blow was unparalleled. It can be guessed from the sound that it is a 122 mm caliber shell.
"Renne! The No. 2 Tiger tank has been hit! It's burning! My God!" Marcus's position was relatively backward,
He could see some situations on the battlefield. The shell hit the Tiger tank just now, and penetrated the front armor plate of the Tiger tank.
So this German Tiger tank burned, and all the people inside should have been killed, because no one saw them climb out of the burning tank. Everyone knew what this meant. It would not be long before the burning Tiger would explode, and the people inside would not even leave their bodies behind.
It's like what was sung in the song of the armored soldier: Even if we die in battle, at least we have a coffin of steel. Most of the armored soldiers ended up lying in this steel coffin, at least they had a satisfactory destination. In the brutal war years, this may be a good ending.
This sudden shell brought the newly restored momentum of the German army back to the point where it was on the verge of collapse. The German army, which originally had only 5 tanks, now has only three left - even though the rate of fire of the German tanks is several times that of the Soviet tanks, the difference in absolute numbers makes the firing density of the two sides not at the same level.
Although the German army destroyed three more Soviet t-34 tanks trying to shorten the distance, the Soviet Red Army still had an overwhelming advantage in the most threatening Stalin tank. And this advantage is constantly expanding, expanding to the point of despair.
What the German army didn't know was that the Soviets didn't only have the dozen or so tanks in front of them, but more tanks were coming out of the woods. In fact, the Soviet army invested more than 60 tanks here. . These tanks are desperately crossing the roadbed and rushing towards the German tanks.
Once these Soviet tanks destroy the Rennes and other vehicles in front of them, they will have the opportunity to outflank and completely kill the incompletely organized SS Imperial Division. If the Imperial Division is surrounded and annihilated, then Guderian's defense line will appear. A gap, a gap that is fatal.
When more and more Soviet tanks were deployed on the battlefield, an armor-piercing projectile passed the tank of Rennes and others from behind and directly destroyed a long-range Stalin tank. , Another Tiger tank commander's voice sounded in Ren's earphone: "I will fire to cover you! Continue to retreat in my direction."
Another Tiger tank arranged to cover them on the way home finally appeared in time. Rennes' delay and blocking finally had a certain effect. At least now it seems that they still have a chance to continue fighting with the Soviets. There is a faint hope of victory.
There have been such dangers before, and the Soviets will eventually give up the attack because of excessive losses. After all, it is not easy to defeat the main German armored force head-on. When the Soviets face the German armored force, they will more or less A little bit unconfident. And it was this moment of lack of self-confidence that made many opportunities to win disappear, and it also created the undefeated myth of countless German ace car groups.
"Fire! Try to destroy the Stalin tanks of the Soviets! No matter how many t-34s are destroyed, they will not retreat!" Marcus yelled in the headset, and then his tank fired a shot, and the shells deviated from the original The target hit the dirt on the ground between two Stalin tanks.
Andre aimed at his target. He aimed the precise scale on the sight of the King Tiger tank on a Stalin tank that was driving straight ahead. The sight stopped at the joint between the turret and the body of the tank, and then he At this moment, the pressure plate for firing was pressed.
A tungsten alloy armor-piercing projectile flew out of the muzzle of the 88mm cannon, followed by thick white smoke. The huge recoil made the Tiger King tank tremble, but the good shock absorption system filtered out the excess force, and the tiger Wang Tank continued to retreat while shaking.
And the shell flew a long distance, and finally hit the upper end of the front armor plate of the targeted Stalin tank, then slightly changed its trajectory, wiped out a spark, and just hit the Stalin tank The arc below the turret then produced a perfect downward ricochet.
The shell easily pierced through the cockpit of the Stalin tank from above, and then mixed with countless metal fragments, it rampaged through the narrow tank cabin, leaving everything it encountered riddled with holes. Accompanied by a burst of intensive clanging, the tank finally stopped moving forward, paralyzed in place and did not move a single bit.
"Ren! We are running out of shells!" The No. 1 Tiger tank of the Battalion Headquarters, which has been with Ren and the others from the beginning of the battle to the present, is about to run out of ammunition. Now this Tiger tank is left A dozen rounds of armor-piercing shells are obviously not enough to face such a number of Soviet tanks.
"No. 1, you can retreat at full speed, and we will cover you! You join No. 3 and find a way to protect the flanks of Marcus and me!" Ren ordered the Tiger tank to retreat at an accelerated pace. If you walk, it will be more likely that you will not be able to walk away. Now they only have 4 tanks left, and each tank must play its biggest role in order to repel this long-planned Soviet attack.
"Don't be idle when retreating! Contact the battalion headquarters! Let them inform the Imperial Division to speed up the retreat! The enemy seems to be going to surround them from the side and back!" Of course, Rennes has not forgotten the reason for the outbreak of this battle, and must be saved as much as possible. The imperial division in crisis, this is their main purpose of coming here.
"Boom!" A Stalin tank was destroyed by Marcus' No. 112 Tiger King. The force of the explosion caused all the hatches of the tank to twist and open, and dazzling flames shot out from inside. The burning black smoke blocked the aiming fire of the Germans and blocked the vision of the nearby Soviets.
Wolfe, who had been shooting cold arrows from behind, frowned, and then gave his driver an order to move on. His Stalin tank began to advance slowly, followed behind the two Stalin tanks, crossed the burning smoke, and approached the German armor bit by bit.
"Ren! Ren! Don't you just use more powerful tanks to cover up your own incompetence?" Wolf pulled the scar on his face, whispering in a hoarse voice. On such a chaotic battlefield, he didn't seem to have any intention of retracting his body into the tank. The half of his exposed body swayed slightly as the tank advanced, and his cold eyes kept staring at the non-stop firing tank in the distance. King Tiger tank No. 113.
