Chapter 342 Tiger Style Is No Longer Popular
Wang Zhong saw the enemy surrender, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then broke out in a cold sweat - damn, think carefully, when I was turning in front of the enemy's gun muzzle just now, if the enemy opened fire, then only Neo, the savior, could be saved.
Neo in The Matrix only dodged pistol and rifle bullets, I dodged 88 cannon shells, Neo had to light a cigarette for me when he saw me!
Wang Zhong was less than 100 meters away from the Tiger at this time, he was not stupid, of course he would not compete with the Tiger's turret at a distance of 1,400 meters, wouldn't that be stupid?
And Wang Zhong dared to rush like this, because he was particularly familiar with the Tiger tank. He knew that the turret of this guy was too heavy, and there was not enough power to drive the turret to rotate at full speed in the lying state. He was not a half-baked person who only looked at the paper data in the game!
If the enemy increased the engine speed to increase the power supply, the sound would be known, and it would not be too late to respond at that time.
But the enemy did not increase the engine speed throughout the whole process, and the turret just turned slowly.
Is it a malfunction?
After all, it is a trial production model, and it is normal to have a high failure rate.
Wang Zhong swung the reins and drove Bucephalus closer to the trophy.
For some reason, the white horse held its head high and looked very proud, as if it had defeated the tank.
To be honest, the enemy would never surrender without aiming at the vortex from a distance.
When Wang Zhong came to the last No. 6 tank, the infantry had already boarded the vehicle, took away the MP40 held high by the surrendering tanker, opened all the covers of the tank, and each cover was divided into a thread cutting machine, and the thick barrel was aimed at the tanker inside.
Being hit in the face by the bullet of the "weight launcher", Wang Zhong didn't dare to think about how miserable the end would be.
Wang Zhong looked at the first person who surrendered: "Why is it the gunner who surrendered? Why didn't your tank commander come out?"
The enemy gunner looked confused.
Wang Zhong gestured to the infantry: "Walkie-talkie."
An infantryman took out a walkie-talkie from his backpack and handed it to Wang Zhong.
The enemy gunner narrowed his eyes and looked at such a small walkie-talkie with an unbelievable look on his face.
"America!" Wang Zhong shook the walkie-talkie in his hand and said so.
The gunner nodded.
At this time, the commander also stood up under the "attention" of the two weight launchers, and his upper body leaned out of the turret.
Wang Zhong: "Vasily, come and translate."
"On the way!" Vasily's voice was sometimes louder and sometimes softer. It can be heard that he was very bumpy over there, and the walkie-talkie was sometimes far away and sometimes close to him.
At this time, the infantry pointed to the southeast. Wang Zhong looked over and saw the jeep coming here in a flash.
In the few minutes waiting for Vasily to arrive, Wang Zhong and the surrendered commander and gunner stared at each other.
Wang Zhong decided to take a look at the car first.
So he jumped off the car and began to check the iconic staggered road wheels of the Type 6 heavy tank. Sure enough, this thing looked very complicated from the outside.
This road wheel is not just as simple as two rows of staggered, each of his road wheels has a "clever idea", which is three thin road wheels put together to form an "I" structure.
The thickness of the upper and lower halves of this I-shaped structure is different. One side is two small road wheels stuck together, and the other side is a single one.
That's not all. When they were put together, Proson's engineers also mirrored the two rows of road wheels like an obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Just by describing it in words, you can know how complicated this thing is.
Such a complex design is adopted to improve the passability of the tank.
But on Earth, after San Dezi tested the captured T34 and Sherman (these two suspension systems are different), they also admitted that the complex staggered road wheels have limited improvement in passability.
Because this thing has a marginal diminishing effect, after a certain level, further efforts to improve it will be very limited.
T34 and Sherman are trying to find the best balance between passability, reliability and maintainability.
San Dezi engineers just pursue the ultimate passability. Do you understand the spirit of craftsmanship? Do you understand oil paper bags?
Proson seems to be the same here.
Wang Zhong shook his head. Ante is limited by its industrial level. It can't build such a large turret seat ring and doesn't have such a good engine, so it made a vortex to deal with it. Wait until the United States is powerful enough to upgrade Ante's industry, and then build a powerful tank.
How come you, Proson, have such a good industrial level, and you have the problem of wasting tonnage?
The army wastes tonnage on staggered road wheels, and the navy wastes tonnage on - wastes it on something unknown.
Wang Zhong shook his head at the staggered road wheels: "This running mechanism is not good. If they really use this thing on a large scale, the logistics will be ruined."
At this time, several Proson tankers were escorted out of the tank, but they didn't understand what Wang Zhong was saying, so they just looked at each other and didn't express their opinions.
Vasily finally arrived and said something in Proson to the prisoners, and then the enemy tank commander immediately asked Vasily in Proson.
Wang Zhong: "What did he ask?"
"Ask the general what he thinks of the 'staggered' road wheels. I know what staggered means..."
Wang Zhong pointed to the road wheels of the heavy tank: "That's what it means."
Vasily's eyes widened: "Wow, is it so powerful?"
After all, staggered road wheels will produce awe when seen with the naked eye.
(Do you think the picture above is just there? No, this is the road wheel that has been arranged on the track)
Vassily asked seriously with awe: "So what do you think of this road wheel?"
Wang Zhong: “This traveling mechanism places too great a burden on logistics, but the passing capacity has not been greatly improved. It is a very bad design.”
After Vasily finished translating, the tanker who was probably the driver spoke a lot emotionally.
Vasily: "What he probably means is that originally Prossen didn't want to use such a complicated running gear, but it got stuck in the mud last year. The running gear of the No. 4 tank performed very poorly on Ant's bad ground."
Wang Zhong laughed loudly: "Don't worry, our T34's performance is also very bad! Even after half a century, General Ni will still be a strong enemy of all armored vehicles."
When he laughed, the Prosen people were frightened and didn't know what he meant. After Vasily translated, the prisoners were embarrassed.
Let’s laugh together, it doesn’t seem too good, but hearing Ant’s most famous general laugh at himself about his own T34, it seems like it’s time to laugh.
Wang Zhong left the captives who were trapped in place and circled the tank, muttering something while doing so: "Vertical armor, 88-gun... I thought Proson could come up with something different."
Vasily translated it intact.
The expressions of several Proson prisoners became ugly.
Wang Zhong paid no attention to them and continued to observe the trophies he had finally obtained.
The Earth Tiger Style is so powerful because when it comes on stage, its opponents are all crooked melons and cracked jujubes.
Maozi's T3485, which can fight Tigers, only entered the war in 1944. On Angsa's side, whether it was the Firefly tank destroyer or the Jackson tank destroyer, it was only after 1944.
But things are different now. Wang Zhong has a vortex in his hands. Although the output is destined to not be high, he can restrain the Tiger at a distance of 1,500 meters.
1500 meters! Neither the T3485, Firefly, or Jackson on Earth can reliably penetrate the Tiger's high-hardness armor at such a long distance.
After all, the vortex uses the Navy's 100mm gun, and its caliber is larger than that of the brothers used to fight tigers on earth: the Firefly's 17-pounder gun is actually 76.2mm in caliber, the T3485 main gun is 85mm, and the Jackson tank destroyer is the largest, also But 90mm.
What's more, the main gun of the Vortex is not only thick in pipe, it was developed by the Navy as a dual-purpose high-level and flat-type gun. The anti-aircraft gun must have a high muzzle velocity. If the muzzle velocity is high, it has the potential to be used as an anti-tank gun.
In short, Wang Zhong enthusiastically circled the tiger pose twice, but his interest was completely gone.
After all, there is a vortex in the hand. If you look at the Tiger Style being hit by the vortex, you won't be able to fight back at all. When fighting against each other at 1500 meters, the eddy current meant that the tracks were interrupted and the ability to move was lost. The Tiger was bombed.
Of course, the Tiger has a turret, which is still better than the Vortex, but it has nothing to do with the word invincible!
Once the machine tools from the United States are in place, it’s time to consider moving the IS3 heavy tank over. Isn’t the IS3 heavy tank with a 100mm gun more powerful than the Tiger?
Vasily asked from the side: "General? Don't you have anything to ask? After all, this is what you want to capture with such enthusiasm."
Wang Zhong: "Suddenly I realized that the design of this thing is not as good as I thought. Our vortex is much stronger than it."
He said this to Vasily, but Vasily translated it directly to the Prosin people.
The expressions of the prisoners were even more ugly.
Wang Zhong continued: "Look, this staggered road wheel is rubbish. The vertical armor design is rubbish. The 88 gun was originally good, but we have better guns. Of course, it is not completely without merit. Look at this There are traces of being hit by eddy currents, and the quality of the Prosin armor steel is indeed good.
"The other thing is the sights. I bet this car has amazing optics too."
Wang Zhong took two more steps and said: "There is also an engine. An engine that can push such a heavy body must be very good. We can copy these and they will definitely become the cornerstone of our army's new tanks in the future."
Vasily translated them all.
The prisoners looked at each other, and then the commander asked questions on behalf of everyone.
Vasily translated: "Is your vortex perfect?"
Wang Zhong: "Of course it's not perfect, and there are many shortcomings, but if you look at it, your new tank was designed to fight T34 and KV. It completed the task brilliantly and made these two tanks unable to fight back.
"My vortex is designed to hit your new tanks. You see, it has completed its task very well. Your new tanks have no power to fight back."
Wang Zhong spread his hands and waited for Vasily to finish the translation before adding the final blow: "You Prossen are not as good as you think you are. Our designers, engineers and scientists are not worse than you! You are still boasting What kind of outstanding race are you, that’s all?”
Wang Zhong paused for a moment to strengthen his expression: "That's it?"
