Chapter 780 Heavy Armor Monster
"Ah." Near the gun emplacement, several gunners also screamed.
The 17-pounder is the most powerful anti-tank gun. In addition to these guns, there are a large number of 2-pounders and 6-pounders, and next to this gun is a 6-pounder.
The swirling shell fragments not only killed the 17-pounder gun position, but also killed several nearby positions, and the screams continued.
When the battle is fought, it is quite cruel. Many people are psychologically prepared for this, but what they did not expect is that the Germans came with such a crazy weapon!
The 128mm gun is almost a suppressed gun in the rear. The opponent actually carried it and used it as a tank gun!
Who can stop this tank?
Almost at the same time, another 17-pounder gun on the other side, not far away, also opened fire.
Just now, the angle was not right, it wanted to aim at the chassis of the opposite rat tank, but it couldn't, and now, seeing the rat tank firing, the moment it stopped, the gun, towards the opposite side, shot its own Cannonballs!
The opponent's turret is not inclined, but vertical. This kind of turret is not easy to ricochet, so it must penetrate the opponent!
This is a 17-pound gun, enough to tear through more than 100 mm of armor!
In their expectant gaze, the armor-piercing projectile flew past and smashed heavily in front of the opponent's turret.
Hit!
If such a big target can no longer be hit, then they are too weak.
The commander's binoculars, staring at the big guy, saw that his own cannonball hit it accurately, and then, there was no more.
The armor-piercing projectile that can penetrate more than 100 mm thick armor just left a shallow pit on the opponent's tank! God, how thick is the armor of the opponent's tank, and what kind of alloy?
Just after discovering that the most powerful anti-tank gun on his side was unable to function against the target, the British position commander was stunned.
"Boom!" The other party's second gun sounded like this. With the huge explosion, another 17-pounder gun on this side flew into the sky, and the Germans fought quite hard!
"Fire, all anti-tank weapons, all fire!" Facing this big guy, the British soldiers fought bravely.
2-pounders, 6-pounders, and even anti-tank guns were constantly greeting each other.
Unfortunately, it's useless, it's like scratching a tick, at most it leaves a shallow pit on the opponent's armor!
"Flank, hit it's side!" an anti-tank gunner shouted loudly. He commanded his gun squad and pushed his 6-pounder gun up.
The opponent came over, only one, this is to use a tank to single out the rhythm of our entire position, let's go!
His position is relatively far away, thousands of meters away from the opponent! This is better, he can just sneak attack from the side!
The thick tires of the 6-pound gun rolled out a rut on the position. Several artillerymen were already proficient and pushed the anti-tank gun to turn a 90-degree bend, just to the side of the opponent.
If you can't wear it on the front, then hit the side!
"Quick, reload!" the gunner shouted loudly.
The 57mm armor-piercing projectile was stuffed into it. Then, after adjusting the angle, the gunner pulled the gun rope forcefully.
"Boom!" 6-pounder, firing from the side!
Generally speaking, the front of the tank is the thickest, and the sides and back are weak. After all, the tank's attack is aimed at the opponent from the front.
And now, German tanks are quite heavily armored.
Even the outside of the track on the side is covered with a thick layer of armor, which can also be called a skirt. This thing is definitely not particularly thick!
This is what the gunner aimed at, and with his expectations, the shells of the 6-pound gun flew towards the direction of the opponent's tracks!
The shell collided with the armored skirt on the side, causing the skirt to sway obviously, but it still only left a pit on it!
The thickness of the German side skirt is definitely more than 80 mm! This is simply a monster covered in heavy armor, invulnerable to swords and bullets!
At this time, the opponent's huge turret had turned over, and a black smoke was coming out from the muzzle.
Suddenly, the gunner felt that his courage just now disappeared. When death was about to come, he suddenly realized that he was actually very afraid of death.
So, leaving his anti-tank guns behind, he wanted to retreat back to his position, at least there were fortifications there and he felt safer.
However, a second later, behind him, a huge airflow lifted his body up. When he felt like a fluttering leaf, flying in the sky, his soul seemed to be separated from his body. .
The entire body was also separated, and under the impact of the blast of air, the body was divided into countless pieces.
"Fuck." An arm fell from the sky and fell into the trench. In the trench, a soldier with a rifle suddenly screamed in horror.
He saw with his own eyes how his artillery positions were destroyed by German artillery fire and hit by grenades at close range. That scene was terrifying!
The Germans are invincible, and if they stay here, there is only one dead end!
When he thought of this, he couldn't help but want to run away.
"Boom!" Another shot, this shot exploded right next to him, a 2-pounder gun that was firing just now was dumbfounded, and several gunners on the gun positions were all killed!
A shrapnel rubbed his scalp and flew over. At this moment, he finally lost all his courage.
"No, I don't want to die, I want to go home." He dropped his rifle and ran back down the trench.
The British army, under the pressure of the rat tank, finally began to collapse!
Countless anti-tank guns fired at the rat tank, but their shells couldn't cause any damage to the rat tank at all!
And every time the rat tank fires, it will bring terrifying lethality. One cannonball will take away several, or even a dozen fresh lives!
Every time it aimed, it was an anti-tank gun position. In this way, there were fewer and fewer anti-tank guns. In the end, no anti-tank guns fired!
They dare not fire, as long as they fire, they will die!
The anti-tank gunner threw away his anti-tank gun and ran backwards, waiting to die if he didn't run. Looking at the behemoth, he approached step by step, and when the opponent crushed it, he would not be able to escape completely!
"Don't go back, don't go back!" the commander shouted loudly.
He even stood up straight from the trench and yelled at his subordinates, what kind of army is this? The miscellaneous army, as soon as they got in contact, they retreated?
"Boom!" At this moment, a 128mm grenade fell beside him. When the shell exploded, his entire body was torn apart instantly!
The commander on the ground was also killed!
This time, everyone had no heart to fight, and ran back along the traffic trenches. Some people even couldn't squeeze the traffic trenches, so they simply jumped out and ran.
