The Decisive Battle Against the Third Reich

Chapter 846: Conisper (Asking for Monthly Pass)

The crews of these two "Tiger" tanks were obviously highly trained and experienced tank crews.

This can be seen from their tactical moves of covering each other's advance.

As mentioned before, it is impossible or difficult for the tank to aim at the target while it is moving. That is to say, it must stop and wait for the vehicle to stabilize when shooting. This causes some trouble for the tank to approach the target... If it drives forward, This means that the enemy can fire without worrying about its firepower, even the "Tiger" is no exception.

Therefore, the mutual cooperation between "Tiger Style" is very important.

When a "Tiger" advances and approaches the target, the other "Tiger" stops, aims at the target, covers it with firepower, and then alternates this action to cover the advance.

This tactic is very effective. In fact, what is more important is the "Tiger"'s 88MM artillery and its 102MM thick armor. These make them completely one-sided to kill the Soviet T34, even if the number of "Tiger" is more than T34 is much less.

Especially when the T34 tank started to escape, it was basically being used as a moving target by the "Tiger" for practice.

Finally, the T34 escaped from the range of the "Tiger".

To be precise, it is not out of range... It is said that the "Tiger" can destroy targets two kilometers away. In theory, it is indeed possible, because the 88 gun can penetrate 80MM thick steel plates at a distance of 2,500 meters. It's just that the hit rate is lower at longer distances, and the "Tiger" is not worth wasting shells.

(Note: The best shooting distance of "Tiger" is 800 meters)

The tank crew of the "Plank 4" tank turned the gun barrel to the other side, and the commander opened the hatch cover and waved to the "Tiger" from a distance... This was done because he was worried that the "Tiger" would kill the "Plank 4" in a tense battle. "Mistaken it for an enemy tank.

Of course, the chances of this happening are low, because those who can drive the "Tiger" are not the kind of nervous rookies.

Qin Chuan was right. The two "Tiger" vehicles obviously realized that they were their own people in the village, so they also moved their gun barrels to one side and slowly drove in.

Seeing the "Tiger" majestically driving in, the German soldiers couldn't help waving their hands and cheering. There were even a few soldiers who looked at the "Tiger" from a distance like children chasing a candy seller. Among them were Including Werner, he even reached out to touch the dents in his armor, making exclamations of exclamation from time to time.

The two "Tiger" vehicles stopped in the expectant eyes of the soldiers, but they never turned off... This is a necessary awareness for armored forces, especially in dangerous areas and also in the cold winter of the Soviet Union.

Unless you are severely low on fuel, keep the engine running.

The consequence of violating this is likely to be the loss of combat effectiveness due to inability to start in an emergency.

The hatch opened, and a bearded and unkempt commander appeared in front of everyone. He didn't even wear a military cap... This was the behavior of a veteran. If he was a recruit, he would definitely dress himself very neatly and meticulously.

"Are you okay?" the driver asked.

"Yes!" Werner replied: "You saved us!"

"Oh!" The captain looked around, shook his head and said, "I doubt it, and I thought so too at first, but on the way here... I told Brigitte, let's fucking save it. The Soviets!"

When the commander saw Qin Chuan, he nodded to Qin Chuan on the tank.

On the battlefield, tank crews were allowed to salute their commanders without dismounting their vehicles, and saluting was also very dangerous.

"Sir!" the commander asked Qin Chuan: "How did you do it? I mean, you were surrounded, but you were able to destroy the tanks that surrounded you one after another!"

"Have you heard of ME63?" Qin Chuan replied.

The originally arrogant commander's facial expression froze. He straightened up unconsciously and asked, "Sir, you mean... you are using ME63? Are you the First Infantry Regiment?"

A "No. 4" tank commander shouted to him from a distance of more than ten meters: "The person in front of you is the 'Legendary Sergeant', Sergeant!"

The commander of the "Tiger" couldn't help but be stunned, then he laughed self-deprecatingly and said to Qin Chuan: "I'm sorry, Lieutenant Colonel. I can't say to you, 'Nice to meet you'!"

This made Qin Chuan a little stunned. The expressions of several of Qin Chuan's subordinates couldn't help but change. There was a fierce look in their eyes, as if they wanted to pull the arrogant sergeant off the tank and beat him up.

The commander didn't take this seriously. He explained calmly: "Because you are the only force that can destroy the Tiger from outside the range..."

As he spoke, the commander patted the armor of the "Tiger" and continued: "No one wants to meet his natural enemy, right?"

The soldiers couldn't help laughing.

"What's your name?" Qin Chuan asked.

"Conispell, sir!" the commander replied: "I am willing to serve you at any time, and the price is only a pack of cigarettes!"

Qin Chuan understood what he meant, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and threw it to him.

"Thank you, sir!" After taking the cigarette, Conispell couldn't wait to take one out and put it in his mouth, lit it and took a few greedy puffs.

Looking at his appearance, Werner couldn't help but said curiously: "We are never short of cigarettes, the Russians bring them to us almost every day!"

"Oh, you know!" Konispel replied: "The Russians also send us cigarettes, but before they give it to us... we usually light them up!"

The soldiers laughed again.

Such humor is needed on the battlefield, which will make them feel relaxed and put into the next battle with a good attitude.

At this time, several calls came from the tank cabin.

Konispel said to Qin Chuan: "Sorry, sir! We have a mission, I am glad you are not my enemy!"

As he said, he closed the hatch amid the laughter of the soldiers, and then drove the "Tiger" out of the village.

Until the tank disappeared from sight, Qin Chuan felt that the name Konispel sounded familiar.

Wait...

Then Qin Chuan quickly thought, isn't Konispel the tank pioneer known as the "King of the Land"?

Qin Chuan couldn't help but look in the direction where the "Tiger" left with his mouth half open.

It is said that Konispel's final record was 195 tanks, which was more than the famous armored heroes such as Wittmann and Karl Juss.

However, due to various reasons, Konispel never received the rank, honor and fame that matched his status, so Konispel was also called the "uncrowned king" by later generations.

Qin Chuan did not expect to meet him under such circumstances.
