Chapter 1305: Twin Giant Beasts

The modified MG42 that has been completely broken and unusable cannot be thrown away casually. Yegorovich has a special liking for this weapon that he modified himself and uses it easily. It is just like a lover.

He threw the "seriously injured" MG42 behind his back and put it on his back by pulling the gun belt. Yegorovich, who was half-crouching on the engine hood of the tank, seized the opportunity, jumped up, and jumped directly out of the car. Like an arrow from a bow, he spread his long legs and ran straight towards the IS6 heavy tank that had been targeted.

"Hey, hey! Yegorovich, where are you going? Be careful of bullets, come back quickly!"

Most people would not do such a thing as running around on the battlefield with a heavy machine gun on their backs. This is not an anti-Japanese drama where bullets outline the edges and do not hit the protagonist. But the young squad leader's loud shouts behind him still couldn't call back Yegorovich's running footsteps. Yegorovich, whose left hand was already injured and half stained with blood, continued to run at full speed as if he didn't hear it.

Although the firepower on the battlefield is dense, it is rare to target one person alone in a very short time.

In short, this competition is about who is better, your foot speed or the enemy's reaction speed.

Fortunately, Yegorovich, who is taller than Malashenko, really has a pair of unparalleled long legs, and the straight-line distance he can take in one step is farther than that of ordinary people.

In addition, Yegorovich, who is an infantry major and a veteran, has super physical fitness, so armed running is not a problem for him.

Yegorovich ran at half the speed of an ordinary person to cover a distance of less than 100 meters. After reaching the rear of the IS6 heavy tank, he looked up at the rear end of the turret and the roof. The first thing he did was to rush up without taking a break.

The people in the tank could not detect Yegorovich's presence. The noisy battlefield sounds and the roar of the diesel engine blocked everything. But this was not important to Yegorovich at the moment, because he did not need any cooperation from the comrades in the tank. He could do everything he wanted to do by himself.

The shape of this IS6 heavy tank is very special, and even the appearance looks very different from other IS6 heavy tanks. It is enough for people who meet it for the first time to remember it at a glance, but Yegorovich, who belongs to the infantry regiment, does not know whose car it is.

Yegorovich risked being shot to death to climb onto the IS6 heavy tank for only one purpose: he had his eyes on the unique twin-mounted heavy machine gun on the top of the turret of this powerful heavy tank.

What type of machine gun?

I don't know. Yegorovich, who looked at it from a distance, felt that he had never seen this thing before, and it didn't seem to be the standard equipment of the Red Army.

It was not until he really climbed onto the engine compartment cover at the rear end of the turret of the IS6 heavy tank that Yegorovich, who had the opportunity to get close to it, discovered that this thing, which was really large in size, was actually a twin-mounted 7mm Deshika anti-aircraft heavy machine gun! And it also had a machine gun shield that could cover the front of the shooter almost without blind spots.

As a veteran gunner, Iushkin's drooling look when he saw the IS4 was like a pervert who saw his dream lover and destined goddess.

At this moment, Yegorovich, whose eyes were already shining, stared at the big baby in front of him with a similar expression.

It may be difficult for ordinary people to understand the love of veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles for powerful new weapons, but to be honest, this is really not much worse than the feeling of a girl you have secretly loved for ten years suddenly confessing to you one day.

Yegorovich did not have extra time to carefully appreciate the industrial masterpiece in front of him, a violent war machine that could be called a dream lover.

Is the thing good to use?

You will know if you try it yourself.

The ammunition belt connected the gun body feed port and the ammunition box with orange-yellow 7mm large-caliber bullets one after another. Yegorovich, whose breathing became a little cramped, heart rate accelerated, and adrenaline soared straight, could not bear it after seeing this situation.

Without saying a word, he grabbed the big treasure in front of him, which was originally placed in the backward state, and just by relying on his skilled experience and accurate intuition, he found the latch button used to control the direction of the machine gun on the hand side of the firing device.

The moment the button was pressed, the originally fixed big treasure immediately moved, as if it was injected with a soul.

The ring machine gun mount built by Karamov himself gave this twin heavy machine gun the maximum possible range of movement. Not only can the commander get out of the running turret and operate the shooting when necessary, but other soldiers and operators can also control it directly from the rear end of the turret outside the vehicle if necessary.

Of course, this idea was not original to Karamov, but was first used by Malashenko in the Battle of Stalingrad. The heavy tanks at hand were temporarily modified and the actual combat feedback was good. The roof heavy machine gun that can be operated by external personnel does give a lot of battlefield flexibility, and it is no longer rigidly required to be operated by tank members themselves and use a fixed gun mount.

Then, similar designs were preserved and used until Karamov, the mechanical master of Stalin's First Guards Tank Division, finally upgraded it to a ring machine gun mount on the turret cover and completed the finalization.

Now, Yegorovich, who can enjoy it with his own hands, is just the beneficiary of this outstanding design that was born in advance.

With the help of movable ball bearings and gun frame latches that can be fixed at any time, this twin-mounted 7mm Deshka heavy machine gun with a machine gun shield appears to be so flexible in the hands of the already extremely powerful Yegorovich , transcendent and ordinary.

If I had to describe it, it would be basically the same as the feeling of ordinary infantry using Bobosha.

With the experience and lesson just now, Yegorovich, who knew that the Germans would definitely shoot at him, became much smarter. He perfectly used the wide machine gun shield to cover up the only half of his upper body that was exposed. .

If the German sniper can shoot through the less than three centimeter gap between the machine gun shield and the turret dome at a distance of at least 500 meters.

Then it can indeed hurt the current Yegorovich.

But if he can't, or if he fires a shot and exposes his position but misses it, it is already foreseeable what kind of revenge he will encounter from Yegorovich, a tough man who is determined to retaliate.

Dong dong dong dong——

The sound of roaring firing of the twin 7mm Deshka heavy machine guns is enough to overwhelm all other light weapons. The red tracer barrage, which is full of destructive power, is wrapped with instant burning indicator bombs, conventional bombs, and armor-piercing bombs to form a mixed bullet chain and sweeps in the direction of the whip. Target, hot cartridge shells were sprayed out one after another, splashing like a heavy rain on the snow-covered turret dome.

This huge roaring sound not only became the absolute protagonist of small weapons in the surroundings, but even the commander Kirill, who was directly under the machine gun and under the tight protection of the turret armor, could clearly hear it.

"Comrade Commander! Our roof-mounted machine gun is firing, and someone is manipulating our gun outside!"
