Chapter 2602: Heroic Death and Passing By

Insufficient firepower, insufficient equipment strength, and especially lack of heavy siege weapons that can form a breakthrough

The central siege team, which had never expected to encounter such great difficulties, was at a loss for a moment and fell into a dilemma.

The German equipment that was originally used to facilitate infiltration and camouflage has now become the biggest problem hindering the attack.

The German armored combat vehicles with weak firepower and insufficient armor cannot open up the current situation. Not only can the firepower of the Black Panther II not break through the roadblock garbage pile in front of it, but the 251-type half-track vehicle that followed the Black Panther II is also a castrated product.

This thing has a thin skin and a large filling, not to mention that it doesn't even have a roof. Even the reinforced 5mm KPV heavy machine gun firepower is not enough.

The crazy Nazi fanatics on the opposite side even set up 20 guns in the building, and then used military standard concrete and steel plates to block the firepower points. The KPV heavy machine gun that can break through ordinary brick walls and light bunkers is really helpless in the face of such defense. Even if they can break through the defense, what can they do? What? Are they going to use their KPV to snipe at the Germans' 20mm guns? Are they crazy?

Boom boom boom --

Swoosh --

Crack --

"Sukka! Let the tanks kill the 20mm gun first. It's annoying me! This bastard has been beeping non-stop from just now until now. Hurry up and kill this bastard first! Don't worry about that pile of garbage!"

Alsim, who was pinned behind the wreckage of a Panther II by the 20mm gun barrage, couldn't move at this moment. If he was a little bit exposed, he would be instantly crushed into meat paste by the surging and violent 20mm gun barrage.

The Panther II behind Alsim was already dead, and it was completely dead and could not be saved.

An anti-tank missile flying from the building at the street corner hit the front main armor belt of the Black Panther II, and a hole big enough for a thumb to be inserted was smashed on the seemingly solid upper armor plate of the vehicle body.

It is often said that if a person is unlucky, even farts will hit his heels, and the same is true for tanks.

This Black Panther II, which was originally equipped with a modular composite armor kit, has been modified and upgraded. It not only has an on-board wired telephone for communication with infantry, but also welded a mounting frame on the main part of the body and turret, which is a few steel bars that look unremarkable.

With these mounting frames that are somewhat similar to the scaffolding on the construction site, the Black Panther II was able to wear modular composite armor plates originally developed and designed for Soviet tanks.

An obvious benefit is here, which can further prove the correctness of Malashenko's original choice.

This kind of external modular composite armor plate is very easy to install. As long as there is a mounting frame, no matter what kind of vehicle you have, even if it is a GAZ truck or even a captured German Lightning Opel truck, you can hang a few pieces on the vital parts to enhance the protection.

It is also no problem to mount it on a tracked fully enclosed armored combat vehicle like the Black Panther II, as long as you weld the mounting frame.

Any vehicle can be immediately transformed in the field to upgrade its protection performance as long as it is needed.

This kind of transformation and upgrade does not need to be returned to the factory, and even the army-level field large-scale repair shop near the front line does not need to be visited. The strong technical team and reliable equipment hardware of the leader division are enough to support the modification.

If this Black Panther II still retains the original external composite armor, then this anti-tank missile is actually not enough to kill the Black Panther II from the front. Even if the external composite armor plate is blown away, it can at least play a one-time role and save the life of this Black Panther II.

But the reality is that before the Panther II was hit by the anti-tank missiles, it was first hit by the 20mm guns on the two "gun towers" at the street corner.

The crackling 20mm guns hit the poor Panther II so hard that sparks flew all over it, and the fragile optical sights were almost completely destroyed. The composite armor plates on the front were almost all blown away. Those crazy Germans aimed at the Panther II with high-explosive bombs. The continuous bombardment of the 20mm gun was enough to blow away the small armor plates on the outside.

Without the defense bonus of the external armor, even the basic armor was pitted, one pit after another, like the surface of the moon.

Before the Panther II, which was already reversing, could catch its breath, the anti-tank missiles flying from the opposite block hit it in the face.

The hot metal jet instantly burned through the tilted upper armor of the Black Panther II, and scattered after entering the vehicle with the residual chemical energy damage effect. The Red Army tank soldiers who were standing in front of them were instantly engulfed by the high-temperature flames that could melt even steel.

"Retreat! This way, retreat! Avoid enemy fire, quickly!"

He called on his brothers to retreat before the Germans' firepower completely blocked the block, so as to retain more tactical options instead of being trapped in a small corner.

Alsim, who was thinking about his brothers but forgot about himself, was planning to move out and quickly escape from the limelight. He never thought that the German 20 gun that had just washed the face of the Black Panther II would not even stop. He pointed the muzzle directly at Alsim, who was commanding the battle at the forefront of the block, and the muzzle with green smoke immediately began to spit out flames again.

Thanks to his keen battlefield intuition formed by his combat talent and rich experience, Alsim, who had an extremely fast reaction speed, did not even have time to replace the AK magazine in his hand, which had just suppressed a round of enemy fire and covered the retreat of his comrades and had already emptied the bullets.

He threw the empty gun in his hand directly behind the nearest and just destroyed Black Panther II wreckage. He followed the gun in mid-air, and immediately jumped forward as if his legs were equipped with springs. He almost jumped behind the Black Panther II with his gun in a dog-eating-shit posture, seeking cover.

As soon as Alsim jumped out, the fierce 20mm gun fire from the Germans followed.

With a crackling sound, the trash can where Alsim had just crouched and hidden was directly smashed into a pile of twisted iron pieces with green smoke. If it hit a person, it would definitely tear any flesh apart on the spot and turn it into a pool of scarlet mud.

"Uh, ha"

Alsim, who once again passed by "heroic death", leaned behind the wreckage of the Black Panther II, reached out and grabbed the AK thrown on the ground, and the first thing he did when he got it was to pull out the empty magazine and immediately start to reload.

While changing the ammunition, he felt the crazy fire suppression around him, and realized that the German 20-gun barrage that refused to let him go was following him again. The wreckage of the Black Panther 2 was shaking all over, and he could only feel the continuous explosions in his ears, and the cement debris on the street splashed by the 20-gun explosion splashed on his face, which was very painful.
