Chapter 2425 Delayed Explosion

The last step of the ramrod was not used to push the cartridge forward into the chamber. Only the two main and deputy loaders worked together to forcibly push the cartridge and the projectile into the breech block.

The loading time was compressed to the shortest possible degree, and the ramrod pushing action that instinctively saved a certain amount of manpower was forcibly omitted. The loader's roar, accompanied by the dull sound of the breech closing, immediately echoed in the vehicle.

"Loading completed!"

"Aim at the target! Fire!"

"This is a greeting for the Red Navy! Fascist bastards!"

Boom--

It is not without cost to transplant the destroyer's gun directly to the tank. At least one of the costs that can be determined is that after the installation of a huge muzzle brake, it still cannot fully digest the huge chamber capacity of the navy level, resulting in the huge recoil of the projectile.

Under the strong effect of this recoil, even the IS7 heavy tank with a combat weight of 70 tons, comparable to the third-generation main battle tank in the 21st century, was still hit by the remaining recoil, causing the whole vehicle to tremble violently and move slightly backwards. The huge body, like a moving mountain, was shaking like a baby carriage, trembling slightly under the muzzle storm.

The 130mm full-caliber semi-armor-piercing delayed-fuze grenade projectile that was ejected at high speed, with a shrill wind-breaking scream, rushed out of the muzzle at high speed in the extremely diffuse muzzle storm and the splashing flames, and rushed straight towards the small earth slope that was emitting gradually rising white smoke.

In front of the powerful 130mm semi-armor-piercing delayed-fuze grenade projectile, the pitiful little defense of the fragile earth slope was like paper.

Traditional high-explosive grenades with contact-type impact fuzes will explode as soon as they touch the earth slope, releasing most of their lethal power between the soil and in the air, but the semi-armor-piercing delayed-fuze grenades from the Red Navy ammunition depot will not.

The thick wall of the projectile, which is thick enough and designed to penetrate light armor, easily penetrates the upper part of the earth slope. The projectile warhead charge under the action of the delayed fuze will not detonate immediately, but will explode into a brilliant firework in the coming seconds, not now.

It shot in from the front edge of the earth slope and shot out from the back of the earth slope.

The projectile that penetrated the entire upper part of the small earth slope continued to move forward with a huge amount of remaining kinetic energy, and in the next second, it hit the concrete outer wall of the German bunker firmly, but this was still not the end.

Under Malashenko's order, the assistant loader Sergei, who was responsible for adjusting the fuze cap on the projectile head, manually fine-tuned the delayed detonation time of the projectile to be long enough so that the projectile would not detonate immediately after penetrating the earth slope, and it would still take some time to transform into a violently spreading explosive chemical energy flame.

As for why he did this, Malashenko did not say it clearly when he gave the order at the time, and Sergei, who only knew that executing the order was the top priority, did not ask any more questions. But at the moment, there is actually no need to ask more questions afterwards, because the real answer is about to appear, just in the next second.

The delayed fuze that is enough to penetrate the lower deck of small and medium-sized warships and then detonate is set to a long enough detonation time, so long that after penetrating the upper part of the earth slope, it can still rely on the remaining strong kinetic energy to complete the second penetration, penetrate the outer wall of the German bunker next to the earth slope, and pour into it.

The 130mm armor-piercing projectile with kinetic energy large enough to penetrate the armor of a light cruiser is definitely not something that the conventional military-standard concrete outer wall can withstand. This ordinary machine gun bunker, which is not as good as the armor protection of the Type 4 tank when converted into equivalent armor defense, is almost as good as paper in front of the 130mm Red Navy naval gun.

Boom--

The semi-armor-piercing delayed-fuze grenade projectile that instantly broke through the concrete outer wall finally detonated smoothly in the center of the bunker, bursting into a ball of extremely diffuse flames.

The two German machine gun teams that were still operating two MG42 machine guns for crazy fire output were instantly in trouble without any time to make any effective response.

The powerful explosive potential energy that was violent enough to break through light armor and smash medium armor was so magnificent that it could directly blow off the entire concrete bunker roof in just a blink of an eye, and countless debris fragments were thrown into the air like flowers scattered by fairies, flying all over the sky, and then fell heavily in the midst of the rain, hitting the people around who had no time to dodge, and it was fucking painful, causing a burst of silent curses.

"Suka! This fire support is too powerful, is it from those 152s?"

"Shut up! Are you blind? Who are you scolding? That's the car of the division commander!"

""

After all, Malashenko's command vehicle is too iconic. The turret painted like a Christmas tree is extremely eye-catching on the battlefield. You can tell at a glance that you will never make a mistake.

Doing so would increase their battlefield recognition, making it difficult to conceal themselves, and easy for the Germans to discover them, and then subject them to some possible, potential concentrated fire attacks.

But the benefits are also visible and real. When the battlefield recognition is fully increased, they can also be seen by their own soldiers at a glance. This feeling of "comrade division commander is with me, fighting side by side with me" is incomparable to any pre-war mobilization speech, and the effect of boosting morale is no less than that of a human emperor's aerial brainwashing ship.

Well, the only difference is that Malashenko's car does not have a loud speaker installed, and it will not play the "famous sayings of the division commander" that make the soldiers of the leader division excited and majestic after listening to it, and tear the German sticks with more force.

The German machine gun bunker that blocked the advance was hit by a bullet, tearing open the protection of the military standard concrete outer wall, and directly exploded inside, leaving only a bare foundation and broken walls standing there. At first glance, it even thought it was some kind of prehistoric civilization relic that had just been unearthed, rather than a modern military project.

The leading squad leader who poked his head out of the trench and saw this scene nodded slowly, then straightened the AK assault rifle in his hand, with the muzzle and the bayonet hanging directly pointing forward, turned his head and immediately raised his right arm and waved to the comrades behind him.

"Keep going! Comrades! Victory is within reach, crush those fascists! Ura!!!"

Ura-ra——

There will always be a time for you to shout battle cries on the battlefield, and as long as you are an infantryman, there will always be a chance, no exception.

At the same time, Malashenko, who had just completed a heavy firepower support and determined that the target had been destroyed based on the huge amount of debris raised by the explosion after the breakthrough, had also found his next target.

It was a Jagdpanther tank destroyer that rushed to the front of the German armored troops and was swaying and stopping, trying to aim at itself.
