Chapter 1149 Can't Hold It
"Our other data is correct, the reloading of this tank is very slow, it takes more than a minute." Modlin said quickly: "So, let's rush through the Soviet tank line now, from their rear attack them!"
The first armor-piercing projectile was ineffective, which made Modlin immediately change his tactics. Originally, Modlin planned to continue attacking after getting close, but thinking about it now, it was not suitable.
Although the effective penetration depth of the armor-piercing projectile can be made larger after approaching, the principle of this is that the closer the distance is, the higher the storage speed of the armor-piercing projectile is. For shelling armor-piercing projectiles, due to the slender body, the air resistance is small. , so the speed does not drop much, that is to say, the penetration depth of one thousand meters and five hundred meters is not much.
If the distance to penetrate the opponent is just a little less than this depth, that's fine, but the problem now is that it seems that after the attack on the opponent's side, the opponent's tank is not affected at all.
If that's the case, then it's better to just intersperse behind the opponent.
At the same time, our tanks are now advancing at a high speed. The higher the speed, the less likely the opponent will hit. After all, this advance is the absolute test of the gunner's level.
What's more useful is that the other party's reloading speed is too slow. As in the information, the other party's tank guns must be using split-type ammunition, so it takes a long time to reload. Now, the other party has fired another shot. Then, wait until the other side shoots the next time, and one side has already passed through the other side!
On the battlefield of tank battles, every second of time is very precious. We must act decisively and choose the most suitable tactics. For example, Modlin immediately changed his tactics at a critical moment.
Since you can't wear it from the front, just get on it from the back!
The entire bell-shaped formation continued to advance at a high speed.
"Boom!" Just after Modlin gave the order, there was a huge impact on the back of his tank. The 122mm armor-piercing projectile that flew from the other side almost wiped the top edge of his turret and flew. The past, hit the air behind his tank.
The armor-piercing projectile has no explosives, and its impact with the ground created a big crater, and dust flew everywhere, but it did not cause any casualties.
The distance is close, and the Soviet tank gun has not yet hit, this is all because the opponent suddenly accelerated!
Berokov clenched his fists, just this shot, it would be great if he could kill that Tiger tank! Who would have thought that because the elevation angle was too high, and because the opponent suddenly accelerated, his shells did not hit.
"Quick, keep loading!" he said loudly to the loader.
In order to pursue the streamline, the space inside the Stalin tank was quite narrow. For this reason, the Soviet tank soldiers recruited some small men. The loader was a small man from Central Asia, only one meter five in height.
Such a small man, shrinking in the tank, can reduce the crowding, but the small man also has disadvantages, such as his strength is small.
In the fierce battlefield, the labor intensity of the loader is the highest. He has just loaded it twice, and it has already made him out of breath. Now, smelling the choking smell inside the turret, the loader is full of energy and starts to move the third The warhead of an armor-piercing projectile.
This hooded armor-piercing projectile has a warhead weight of 25 kilograms! When the first two rounds were loaded, there was nothing. When the third round was loaded, the loader felt that both arms were sore. He gritted his teeth and forced the cannonball into the barrel.
At this moment, the body of the car suddenly shook.
On the battlefield, no tank stays in place stupidly, it will only make itself a target for others. It only stops when firing, and as soon as the firing is completed, it must start.
In air combat, if you keep flying in a straight line for three seconds, you may be shot down, and on the ground, if you stay in place for three seconds, you may be shot down!
So, after firing the shell just now, the driver in front started to start the tank, but this time he started the tank a little too hard. After just accelerating, the front track rolled onto a stone, and the body of the car was crushed. Shake up.
Shaking is normal in a tank, but now the loader felt like he couldn't take it any longer, his hands were shaking, and suddenly, he let go.
The 25-kilogram armor-piercing projectile fell like this, rolled under his feet, and smashed right under Berokov's feet.
In an instant, Berokov felt a huge pain, and in the rumbling sound of the engine, he seemed to hear the cracking sound of broken bones. Maybe, the bones of his feet were already shattered.
Sweat dripped from his forehead at once.
"You idiot, reload!" he shouted loudly.
Only then did the loader realize that he was in trouble. It seemed that his body was full of strength again, and he quickly bent over and stuffed the warhead of the armor-piercing bullet.
If it is a German tank, such an accident may occur. After all, although the caliber of German tank guns is small, the shells are integral and not light.
However, there is certainly no such consequence.
Because the German tank turret is a hanging basket, both the commander and the gunner are sitting in the tank, and their feet are not on the floor at all.
If you want to smash it, at most you will smash the foot of the loader, but you will not be able to hit the feet of others.
The Soviet tanks have their feet directly on the floor. When the turret rotates, the feet of the three people in the turret follow on the ground.
In this way, the structure can be simplified, and the weight can be reduced at the same time, which is convenient for production. Soviet tanks have never considered humanization, and people must adapt to the machine.
Now, Berokov knew that his foot was injured, and he still endured the pain and continued to command the battle.
However, when he put his eyes back on the observation hole, his expression changed a little.
The Germans were rushing too fast. Now, they are already rushing to the front. Why are the Germans still not slowing down?
No, the Germans are going to attack!
"Quick, turn the turret and go to the back!" Berokov suddenly realized the intention of the German armored soldiers, and immediately shouted.
The loader was stunned: "Captain, I haven't loaded it yet!"
He had just lifted the cannonballs.
However, Berokov ignored him, and endured the pain, his feet stomped on the floor, and at the same time, the turret began to rotate slowly.
As a result, the loader could only carry the cannonball and turn it along, which made it even more difficult for him, seeing that the cannonball could no longer be held.
