Chapter 2490 Bombing Time

When the huge TOS-1s began to stand on the ground and spray out blazing orange-red flames, the flames violently shot out from the tail of the launch box, even the surrounding grass that had been blown to pieces could instantly The fire was ignited, and the shock wave when the heavy rocket was launched was even more powerful. It quickly ignited a large raging fire and enveloped these TOS-1s.

"Our tanks were scorched by the fire, and the ignited grass kept burning around our tanks. But we had no time to care about this. Our mission was to pour even greater fury on the enemy's heads and fight for the comrades on the front line. The fiercest artillery support made the Fascists know that all their resistance would be in vain."

Many years later, a Guards veteran who participated in this battle was interviewed. He recalled that the scene was still fresh in his mind.

The roaring heavy rockets dragged their orange-red tail flames straight into the sky. The TOS-1's limited range determined that even if it carried out artillery strikes at a relatively close distance, it still had to shoot parabolic trajectories instead of traditional trajectories. The direct-aiming ballistics of the barrel artillery can hit the target more accurately.

Those large-caliber rockets that flew far less quickly than artillery shells gave the Germans the opportunity: the last chance to witness their own death before their bodies were destroyed and their souls dissipated.

When those who witnessed the rockets roaring all over the sky like heavy rain came, if they wanted to take a step and run away, it would be too late.

Boom boom boom boom——

Huge explosions came one after another, and the gathered fire and flames exploded into pieces in just an instant, one after another.

Different from those ISU-152\A with strong armor and powerful guns, TOS-1's land bombing strike mode is completely different.

If the ISU-152\A emphasizes the single-shot strike accuracy and comprehensive damage efficiency of close range shooting, it still removes the German fortification bunkers one by one.

Then the attack method of TOS-1 is a large-scale coverage strike that does not focus on the point at all, but only on the surface.

The 310mm heavy rockets fell concentratedly in the targeted area and exploded continuously. An area of ​​only a few hundred square meters was continuously bombarded by a total of 96 Andryusha rockets.

It is worth mentioning that the ammunition launched this time was not the directly transplanted universal version of the Andlyusa rocket normally used, but a specialized and improved version with a reduced fuel section and an increased warhead charge. "TOS-1 special ammunition".

From a design perspective, TOS-1 itself is a medium-range firepower heavy support vehicle that fills the gap between long-range howitzers and close-in direct-aiming support firepower in the combat range.

Therefore, the original transplanted universal version of the 310mm Andryusha rocket sometimes has "excessive range". The ideal combat zone that TOS-1 is responsible for does not require such a long range, and only needs to be within the direct visual range. The range is enough to send 16 rounds of heavy ammunition to the top of the Kraut's head.

Therefore, the idea of ​​"increasing warhead charges in the fuel reduction section" proposed by Kojing is very reasonable. It is an adaptive improvement based on actual needs and battlefield conditions, and can indeed enhance the combat efficiency of TOS-1.

Those heavy-duty rockets that have been specially improved have the same body and diameter, but 35% more warhead charge is stuffed in the fuel segment space vacated after removal, increasing the total warhead charge to It is a terrifying level that any field artilleryman, not even the 203 Stalin Hammer, can match: a full 8 kilograms, close to the 100 kilograms of aerial bombs, equivalent to more than 6 rounds of 152 high-explosive grenade.

This kind of ammunition, not only to kill them all, but at least to the extent of destroying corpses and eradicating traces, is indeed the case for those German sticks.

The specialized and improved ammunition with a warhead charge of 8 kilograms does not even need to hit the target directly. It just hits a few meters away from the German bunker in a near-missile manner.

The terrifying flames and technological shock waves that burst out instantly can destroy the outer wall of the fortification in an instant that the naked eye cannot react at all, destroying the entire shell of the bunker in an instant like "a tornado destroying a parking lot", swept by the blast wind. I was blown away to pieces, and my whole body was ripped open.

Many German soldiers who survived the battle felt that those Russian steel behemoths carrying 152 howitzers on their shoulders were already very scary. Every time they roared and fired, they would destroy any target they hit, no matter it was human. , vehicles, tanks, or reinforced concrete structures with permanent defenses reinforced with steel plates.

But now, this kind of destructive weapon, which has a single-shot ammunition that is six times more powerful than the 152 grenade, has once again subverted and refreshed the perceptions of all German soldiers on the battlefield who have witnessed this scene with their own eyes and are still alive.

The huge rockets were like opening cans, destroying one's own defenses one by one. Any ordinary defenses that were hit directly or affected at close range would not escape death.

The rocket that hit the top of the bunker was like hitting a fruit can with a demolition sledgehammer. With your arms rounded and gravity potential, you hit it hard. Not to mention opening the can, even the fruit inside the can had to be opened. It was smashed to pieces, and the ground was covered with paste.

The fate of the German bunker was similar. The special improved rocket that exploded on the top of the top of the head could not only break the roof of the embedded steel plate sandwich, but the explosive potential energy that was still angry could continue to pour down and vertically in a mighty torrent, and in the next second, it instantly swept everything in it, destroying anything it touched, whether it was people or objects.

Rather than being killed on the spot, it was better to say that it was evaporated on the spot by this "humane destruction" weapon, leaving no trace.

After the huge explosion roar, only the remains of the bunker that were broken into small pieces or even powder remained in the original place, and a few twisted and hot steel bars that had been broken into small pieces could be found from it.

As for people and flesh and blood

Where the fucking traces of people and flesh and blood are there? The terrifying power that can blow the military concrete into powder has already blown all the living things in the bunker to the ground at the distance of the face explosion without leaving any slag. Who knows whether the one or two pieces of meat you might find are a hundred meters or two hundred meters away, and in which specific direction.

"If you refuse to surrender in front of the leader division, you will be humanely destroyed by TOS-1, and enjoy a one-stop battlefield funeral service from death on the spot to instant cremation. This is the ultimate mercy that the Red Army can give you."

Malashenko did say this to the Germans during a surrender attempt.
