Chapter 2651: Killing Giant Beasts (Part 2)

This shot determines not only victory or defeat, but also life or death.

The Sturmtiger on the opposite side, which had just fired a shot, was slowly backing up, not far from the nearest street corner it had just turned out of. According to the visual distance observed by Malashenko through the commander's periscope, if he missed this shot, he would not be able to wait for the IS7's not-so-long, but definitely not-quite-fast reload speed to fire the second shot.

You can't rely entirely on Iushkin to be your substitute. This guy is now both a gunner and a commander, and it is inevitable that he will be distracted and unable to concentrate. Malashenko can't guarantee that Iushkin will definitely not be able to "carry a rifle", oh no, it should be said that he will not be able to "carry a cannon".

It's better to rely on yourself than on others.

This may sound a bit like not trusting comrades, but Malashenko's starting point is to go for the goal of "hitting the target with one shot". It's closer to not adding burdens to comrades than not trusting them.

Although it is a temporarily loaned car and a temporarily loaned crew,

But this is the "royal crew" of the brigade commander, comrade Kurbalov. How bad can a crew that can be a partner of the brigade commander be? Malashenko also believes that these comrades around him can definitely complete the strike mission. Although the gunners of Kurbalov's crew are not as "weird" as Iushkin, they are also elites. In terms of artillery skills, they can be ranked among the top five gunners in the entire leader division. ̢̜̳̱͈̹͓͛͜ḩ̷̻̩͍̱̗͔̺̏̓͊̀͂̀ͅṵ̵̙̻͉̦͙̗̥̉̓̓͊̑̂̑x̸͍̘̳͂͊̂̊̀͊̕͘.̷̹̦̆̆c̶͙͈͚̽̄̈̎̒͜ó̶̧̧̝̳̠͇͕̺̲̹̔̈́̃͝͝m̷̗͓̽̂̌̋̃̌

Wow——

Bang——

“Loading completed! ”

Accompanied by the sound of the metal shell being pushed into the chamber by rubbing against the loading rail, a shout of "Loading Complete" and the dull sound of the breech block closing and hitting each other sounded almost at the same time.

Malachenko held his breath as the gunner's shout of "Aimed" echoed in his ears. The passage of time in the car seemed to stop at this moment. In an instant, Malachenko could even hear his own breathing and feel his heartbeat. A gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and the command he blurted out in an instant was as powerful as the sound of thunder and artillery.

"Fire!!! "

Click--

Boom--

The muzzle roared, and flames shot out.

The huge amount of propellant filling the propellant cartridge was ignited by electric shock in the chamber of the gun barrel, and quickly transformed into a violent and hot torrent of chemical energy, which sent out the projectile that was close to the front end of the cartridge and filled the rifling.

The shell of the projectile, which tightly wrapped the core armor-piercing body in a hollow state, automatically cracked and fell off the moment it was ejected. The four shells were like falling off the booster of the rocket, and were quickly left behind by the core armor-piercing body that had been separated and maintained a high-speed forward state.

There was no drag of redundant weight, and no huge wind resistance caused by the extra covering shell.

This projectile was violently fired using a real full-charge propellant cartridge, but the actual mass of the warhead was far greater than that of the usual full-caliber. The flight speed of the armor-piercing body of the armor-piercing projectile is so fast that it is outrageous.

The muzzle velocity of the ordinary 130mm full-caliber armor-piercing projectile has exceeded the 1,000-meter-per-second mark, which is at the same level as the muzzle velocity of the Long 88 gun that the Germans are proud of.

The flight speed of the core of this outrageously fast sub-caliber armor-piercing projectile is even faster and more abnormal. It is so fast that it rushes straight towards the target that is not far away like a gray lightning, which is enough to make any tactical maneuvers that try to evade it pale and powerless.

The accuracy improvement has been proven to be effective, and the flight trajectory stability improvement design specially made for the core armor-piercing body has been successfully verified by actual combat shooting.

The front of the actual warhead The size of the projected area was only the size of a fist. The armor-piercing bullet hit accurately, and with unstoppable impact kinetic energy, it crashed into the main armor belt on the front of the Sturmtiger's fighting compartment, hitting it hard.

In the moment when the human nerve consciousness and brain circuit conduction had no time to react, it mercilessly broke through the heavy armor and rushed in with the harsh metal friction scream like a hot knife cutting butter.

Good fortune never comes alone, and misfortune never comes alone.

The truth of life summed up by the ancient and wise Chinese is applicable everywhere, including your Nazi German land.

Not only was it hit by the bullet from Malashenko's car, but the No. 177 car from Iushkin, who served as the temporary acting tank commander, was also hit by a single shot. , as if deliberately responding to Malashenko's shot, it hit the other side of the main armor belt in the front of the fighting compartment of the unfortunate Sturmtiger.

The Sturmtiger was hit on the left and right sides of the face almost at the same time. No matter which half of the two solid broken faces were, they could not stop the violent intrusion of this unprecedented mysterious and unknown force.

The seemingly heavy main armor belt in the front of the fighting compartment was ruthlessly torn apart. The whole process was easier than piercing an A4 paper with a pencil.

The armor-piercing body injected into it did not stop moving forward, but brought with it a large number of armor fragments at the moment of penetrating the armor, and together with the fragments of the bullet that had begun to shatter, set off an instantaneous metal storm and violent whistling in the car.

Ding ding bang bang crackle——

"Ugh!"

"Ah!!!"

"Puff——"

The sound of metal fragments hitting each other, the sound of fragments cutting into the flesh, the wailing of people screaming due to the heart-wrenching feeling of their flesh being torn apart, and the muffled groans of people dying on the spot without even having time to scream.

Everything happened too fast, from the bullet core penetrating the main armor belt on the front to the sudden death of the crew, the whole process was just a lightning-fast moment of less than a second.

However, this bloody tearing was far from over, and after the climax, there was still the aftereffects of the second half to continue on stage.

Those German soldiers who were required to follow closely behind the Sturmtiger, escort it on both sides and accompany it forward, preparing for a counterattack to beat the Russians back again and retake the front line would not have thought that their final death would be so outrageous, rare, and miserable.

They broke out of the weak armor belt behind the Sturmtiger's fighting room and penetrated the armor for the second time, causing a "through penetration" in the actual sense.

During the two consecutive armor-piercing processes, the bullet, which had been severely twisted by metal friction and kinetic energy impact, had long been "out of shape" at this moment.

Compared with the initial smooth streamlined appearance, the bullet at this moment was more like a piece of twisted scrap metal that was smashed and burned, but it still retained unimaginable high speed and high energy. Together with the armor fragments that were lifted up in an instant after penetrating the armor, it rushed straight towards the German soldiers who had no chance to be "dumbfounded" like a large shotgun spray.

"Ah!!! My legs! My legs!!!"

"Help, someone help me! Save me, save me! I don't want to die!!!"

After a burst of flames and blood dancing wildly, behind the steel-ferocious giant corpse of the Sturmtiger, there were only a piece of broken limbs, rotten blood and flesh, and endless wailing and wailing, but that was all, nothing else.
