The Third Reich

Chapter 733 Landing on the Beach

The amphibious tank, walking at the forefront, the propeller at the rear is turning, pushing the sea water, and sailing at a speed of 10 kilometers per hour, which is already the maximum speed they can sail at sea.

And behind them, closely followed, is the rubber boat troop. The tail engine of the rubber boat rumbled, pushing the rubber boat forward on the water.

In front of the rubber boat is a machine gunner. The machine gun is mounted on the bow of the boat, and the bipod stays firmly, waiting for the final moment.

rush, rush!

They successfully crossed the minefield without detonating any mines. These two sea crossing tools are quite suitable.

At this point, the front of the amphibious tank, the 50mm tank gun, was ready to fire.

Yes, amphibious tanks can be fired on water, otherwise, what is the use of such tanks? Because the recoil of the 75mm gun and the 88mm gun is too large, so far, their tank guns are all 50mm.

However, 50mm is enough. Except for the Soviet KV-1 tanks that appeared on the Finnish battlefield, there are no tanks that can block the fire of 50mm shells.

Now, they mainly use grenades to deal with various fortifications and bunkers in front.

charge! It can be expected that the attack on the beachhead is the most casualty.

The tankers mustered up their courage. In the darkness, they were aiming at the bright spots on the opposite side. Although it was dark now, firepower spots would appear one by one soon.

Just like a flock of ducks in the water, the first wave of attacking troops is moving towards the beachhead of Dover, England!

"On the sea, the Germans rushed over!" The German bombers attacked in waves one after another. They bombed for more than an hour. One batch of searchlights was destroyed, and another batch appeared, as if the bombing could not be completed. , The whole position is filled with the smell of gunpowder.

A searchlight suddenly stopped when scanning the sea. At this time, on the sea, they finally saw the countless chariots!

Yes, the German amphibious tank! There is no error in our own information, and sure enough, the German tanks can be launched!

After the searchlight shone on the German tanks, the battle horn was blown immediately, and the most brutal battle for the beach was about to begin!

"Tom, tom, tom!" The three flares were shot into the sky. When they exploded in the sky, the dark night sky instantly became like day!

Fighting at night for what? Except for searchlights, it's flares!

Especially after learning that the Germans might launch a sneak attack on the coast of Dover at night, the British did a lot of preparations here and were mobilized by almost all kinds of useful equipment.

Like now, this efficient flare!

This time, the entire sea can be seen clearly, countless enemies!

The amphibious tank, with almost only the turret exposed in the water, looks even more terrifying, like a cannon on the water, and at the back, there are countless rubber boats.

"Fire, fire!" shouted the commander.

When the opponent's bombers were bombing just now, many positions here were not moving. After all, it was night. As long as the opponent did not open fire to expose the target, the opponent would not be able to find it.

And now, after seeing the other side's landing troops coming, the British army here will no longer leave behind, and all the firepower will start together!

"Boom!" A small cannon opened fire with the help of light!

The 2-pounder gun is still the main anti-tank gun of the British army. Behind the narrow shield, two gunners are sitting there, operating nervously.

With their expectations, the 40mm armor-piercing projectile flew towards the opposite side, and then hit the sea water.

Yes, it just fell into the sea, even if there are many tanks on the other side, but after all, at sea, most of the people scattered on a wide attack surface are still sea water.

Empty!

At the same time, the opposite tank also opened fire!

"Boom!" The 50mm tank gun let out a roar, and a fire burst out from the muzzle. In the fire, the shell flew towards the opposite side!

When the fire was fired, the entire car body sank down with the sound, sinking five centimeters, and the speed of the car body also dropped sharply.

However, the car body can withstand it!

"Boom!" The shell exploded on the opposite side. This time, the luck was quite good. It just hit the position of the opposite anti-tank gun. In an instant, the 2-pound anti-tank gun was killed. The two gunners flew up with the explosion.

In addition to good luck, there are other aspects. For example, the defensive positions here are much denser, one fortification is next to one, so the hit rate is also quite high.

The light of the flares dimmed, but then, a new flare was fired!

At this time, without the need for flares, the light of both sides' firing has already illuminated the place.

At this time, in the sky, the Stukas suddenly screamed and swooped down. The position where they swooped was the beach where the tank troops were about to land!

"Boom, boom!" Bombs exploded on the empty beach, followed by more explosions!

"Boom, boom!"

Watching the explosion on the beach, the British soldiers defending here clenched their fists angrily.

In order to prevent the landing of German tanks, they deliberately planted anti-tank mines in front of the beach. This is the most effective way. As long as the tank comes up, the track of the tank will be blown off!

After the war, the landmines will not be completely eliminated. The beaches here are considered abandoned. However, during this war, everything is aimed at fighting. As for the post-war, it has to be said after the war.

It's just now that these mines are not in use!

Originally, they planned to blow up each other's tracks to let the other party know that this was a minefield. If the other party used sappers to clear mines, it would take more time.

But what about now? The Germans actually used this violent method to detonate the mines directly with bombs!

How many Stukas did the Germans spend this night? There are definitely thousands of sorties! Some excellent pilots even flew two or three take-offs and landings in a row!

The minefield in front has been cleared. Braving the powerful firepower on the shore, the amphibious tank is finally about to land!

The wet car body was exposed from the sea water, the propeller at the rear had stopped, and the power was switched to the crawler, crushing the beach. The first amphibious tank finally landed!

"Boom!" At this moment, an anti-tank artillery hit the tank. Under the huge impact, the body of the tank actually retreated back into the sea!

The sea water poured in wildly, and the terrible explosion of ammunition did not happen.

The driver and radio operator in front were all killed, while the tank soldiers in the turret picked up their submachine guns, jumped off the turret, and rushed over!

Unlike the main battle tank, the armor of the amphibious tank cannot be particularly thick, otherwise it will not float, and now, facing the blow of the 2-pound anti-tank gun, the tank was immediately destroyed.

Stepping on the sea water under their feet, the tankers rushed forward, and behind them, one after another, tanks were coming ashore one after another!
