Chapter 461: Steel Collision

The speed of the sound is very slow, so you can only see a fireball emerging from the muzzle on the opposite side, and black smoke rising. Only when the distance is close can the cannonball come almost at the same time as the sound. The shells arrive first, and the sound is still behind!

At a distance of one thousand meters, this has completely subverted the understanding of the French tank soldiers.

When launching a grenade, it is normal to hit a few kilometers. However, when launching armor-piercing projectiles, in this era, it is almost always within 500 meters. If it is far away, there is no accuracy at all!

Needless to say, in this era, even in later generations, those old tanks without advanced sighting systems, such as the 59 tanks, can normally fire within 500 meters. (The 105 guns are not counted.)

Now, a thousand meters away, the German tanks are about to fire? Is this just bluffing?

This thought only lasted in their minds for a second. A thousand meters away, the S-35 tank that thought it was safe suddenly seemed to have been hit hard by something. She shuddered back, and then, there was a loud bang.

In fact, in recent years, Germany has been developing advanced armor-piercing projectiles, but after all, there is no threat for the time being. The existing blunt steel core armor-piercing projectiles are enough to destroy almost all tanks.

Therefore, they are now using ordinary armor-piercing bullets. Once new ammunition is released, it is easy to be imitated by opponents and cause more damage to German tanks.

The rotating blunt armor-piercing bullet hit the armor of the S-35 tank. The blunt tip provided a positive effect. Under the huge impact energy, it directly penetrated the main armor of the tank.

Even ordinary armor-piercing projectiles can penetrate more than 100 mm at a distance of 1,000 meters. French tanks cannot stop them at all!

Compared with its power, what is even more terrifying is its accuracy. This is a distance of one thousand meters. In such a sudden, the opposite tank is killed. In an instant, the last reason of the French tank soldiers is also lost.

Where is this war, this is simply to die!

Get in reverse gear and keep running!

The S-35 tank in front was frightened by Nesper's attack, and Charles de Gaulle in the back suddenly broke out in a cold sweat on his head.

The Germans have already come, can they still block the other party?

"Order, attack the opponent's left flank!" De Gaulle said through gritted teeth.

When you can't penetrate the opponent, you have to go around the opponent's side. This is common sense that every armored soldier should know!

After all, the armor of a tank cannot be the same thickness everywhere, otherwise the tank will be a lump of iron, and it will not be able to move at all. The tank is used for charging, so the armor on the front is always the thickest, and the armor on the side is thinner.

If the front cannot be penetrated, then hit the side!

Following his orders, the troops of the B-type tanks continued to advance, and they turned right in unison, wanting to attack from the opponent's left flank.

However, the S-35 tank unit is still collapsing. After all, the burning tank is a living example. Their tanks can't stop the opponent's blow. If they stay here, they will die.

For this kind of work, let the more sturdy B-type tanks come!

Just as the B-type tanks continued to move forward and were about to encircle them from the side, the number of German tanks on the opposite side was increasing!

One, two, three. After the leading tank unit had crossed the bridge, Nesper did not wait any longer. The battle that belonged to him had just begun.

Charge, charge, take out the French tanks!

This is the collision of steel and steel!

Nesper listened to the voice of his own tank, and calmly ordered, 800 meters ahead, two close positions to the right, Type B tank, fire!

"Boom!" The tank gun roared again.

At this time, the opposite tank suddenly braked suddenly, and the shell splashed down in front of the opponent's car body without causing any damage.

The other party is also experienced!

In fact, even in later generations, if there is a tank battle, the hit rate will not be very high. For example, a 50% hit rate is an impossible figure, regardless of the computer's first hit rate, it will be in actual combat. Greatly reduced.

In this era, the hit rate of tanks is even lower. A common phenomenon is that when the two armies are at war, the tanks of both sides are galloping, stopping, firing, and cannonballs flying. However, a At the end of the battle, hundreds of shells were fired, possibly leaving the remains of a dozen tanks.

In contrast, the hit rate of the German tank soldiers is already quite high, but this is not entirely the case. When encountering cunning opponents, their hit rate begins to drop.

In this case, Nesper had been prepared for a long time, and he didn't care: "Blunt armor-piercing bullet, load it."

This time, the distance between the two sides was already very close, and at a distance of 600 meters, Nesper's tank opened fire again.

The roaring cannonball drew a graceful arc and flew over. At the same time, the tank on the opposite side also opened fire!

In this era, the tank gun that can penetrate the Panther tank has not yet appeared. Facing the shells fired by the opponent, Nesper did not dodge at all. In his field of vision, the target tank ignited in an instant. Fire.

Hit again!

Nesper was very satisfied, and the shells shot by the other party flew somewhere, and he didn't feel anything.

"Crush, keep rushing!" De Gaulle continued to shout loudly: "If you get closer, we will definitely be able to penetrate them."

With the destruction of the B-type tank, the will to fight here has also been hit. Now, it is all inspired by de Gaulle. This is the most tragic battle of the French armored forces!

However, just after de Gaulle finished shouting, the roar behind him disappeared.

"What's the matter?" De Gaulle bowed his head and shouted inside.

"Engine failure!" the tanker shouted loudly.

The engine failure, which made de Gaulle's face change suddenly.

This kind of tank has a huge weight. For this reason, French engineers specially designed the engine. At first, it was 250 horsepower, and then it was increased to 307 horsepower. This is enough to drive the tank to the design speed.

However, the reliability of this engine is quite poor! Under the usual meticulous maintenance, there are still various failures, but now, on the battlefield, it has broken down again.

Oops! A tank that has lost its power is the opponent's living target!

With the loss of the power system, the power supply was also interrupted, the radio lost contact, and the surrounding B tanks had an ominous feeling.

what happened? Their command car didn't leave, and they didn't give orders. Could it be that General de Gaulle was going to run away? If he's going to run away, then everyone else is fighting ass!

Moreover, where is this battle, it's just death, okay?

Finally, a B-tank stopped, and then, began to reverse.
