Chapter 1488 Battlefield Veterans

The black smoke was getting closer and closer. When everyone saw the tank opposite, their hearts sank instantly.

Tiger tank, Tiger tank!

This is Germany's most advanced tank. It was almost invincible on the Soviet battlefield. There was no weapon on the front that could penetrate it. You could only find a way from the side or the back.

This anti-tank gun on our own side cannot pose any threat to it.

Who would have thought that the German landing troops would be tiger tanks coming up? This is simply impossible!

A company of Tiger tanks is enough to crush the entire infantry division. Just the momentum when coming here will bring huge pressure.

When he saw the Tiger tank, even Colonel Hunter was stunned. He had enough courage, but he could not let his troops fall into a desperate battle. After all, the gap between the enemy and me was too big.

From this perspective, he should retreat or retreat to the mountainous area on the left to save himself first.

But in that case, Reykjavik in the rear will be in danger. This is the only place that can prevent the Germans from moving forward. Once the Germans are allowed to rush to Reykjavik, Iceland will change hands. Iceland's position in the American strategy is self-evident.

If the United States masters Iceland, it can use Iceland as a springboard to land in Europe. If Germany masters Iceland, it can also use Iceland as a springboard to land in the United States. The United States will face the danger of local invasion!

You cannot retreat, absolutely you cannot retreat!

"Prepare anti-tank grenades and blow up its tracks!" Colonel Hunter shouted loudly: "Its tracks are the most vulnerable, we must defeat the German tanks!"

At this moment, the other party was getting closer and could clearly see the other party's rear.

The number of Tiger tanks is not large, and the Black Panther tank is behind it, followed by infantry fighting vehicles. When he saw this, Colonel Hunter decided on a combat plan in his mind.

After a brief resistance, let go of these Tiger tanks and then hit the one behind them!

"Boom!" At this moment, the tank on the opposite side had already opened fire, and the other party was actually shooting while moving! The high quality of the German tanker shocked everyone.

Without the help of any electronic equipment, firing while moving was similar to shooting mosquitoes with a rifle. However, the flying shells actually hit the trucks blocking the road, and instantly, the trucks started to burn.

The ground was trembling, the tanks were roaring, and the newly enlisted soldiers all felt fear in their hearts.

This mood is normal for the first time on the battlefield.

Baslom is a veteran.

When the German tanks arrived at high speed, he was not afraid. He aimed motionlessly, waiting for the opportunity.

The United States did not pay much attention to tanks at the beginning. Look at the fact that the United States had nothing famous in the early stages of World War II. Sherman was not famous for his performance, but for production and assembly line.

This anti-tank gun was not from the United States, but developed by the United Kingdom.

As early as October 1934, the British proposed relevant technical specifications and parameters to develop a new anti-tank gun. Its total weight will not exceed 16 kilograms and will be able to penetrate 25mm thick steel plates 200 meters away.

The designer of this anti-tank gun was Captain Boyce. He passed away after the gun was manufactured. So the weapon was named after him and was officially adopted at the end of 1937.

At the same time, it can use mark1 steel core armor-piercing bullets or mark2 tungsten core armor-piercing bullets, and its performance has met the design requirements.

When it first appeared, there was no problem with the tank at that time, but the Tiger tank had a front armor thickness of more than 100 mm, and hitting it was almost the same as tickling it.

Destroy is impossible, but it can still pose a threat!

The front sight, the driver's observation hole, etc. are all weak. When hitting it, it can also prevent the other party from moving forward!

The tank continued to rush up, and the distance was getting closer and closer. When it was almost a hundred meters, Baslom pulled the trigger.

"boom!"

The gun was expanded and its caliber reached 13.97 mm. When it was fired, it looked more like the sound of a cannon. As the bullet flew out, the huge recoil hit Baslom's shoulder.

Although there is a muzzle retractor that offsets part of the recoil, the remaining recoil is still quite large. In this case, Baslom's entire body seemed to tremble suddenly, and the internal organs in the entire abdominal cavity were shocked.

Baslom didn't care at all. After the shooting was completed, he immediately held his gun and quickly moved to the side.

When I was shooting just now, the noise was too loud and the target must have been exposed.

Sure enough, the next moment, the tiger tank had stopped, and the muzzle turned towards the place where he had just fired. Then, a stream of black smoke emerged from the muzzle, and the 88-mm grenade smashed Baslom's just position into ruins.

If Baslon had just slowed down for another second, he would have been bombed into the sky. After the explosion, he picked up his gun again.

The German tank did not move.

The driver was killed.

The bullet actually drilled into the observation hole, smashing the narrow bulletproof glass in front, and hitting the driver's head. The driver's head immediately exploded, and white brain matter and red blood were flowing everywhere.

"Damn!" In the turret behind, Haldegen couldn't help but curse, and then shouted: "Radioman, inform the entire army and turn into combat formation!"

Just now, they rushed all the way, advancing along the road next to the coastline, which was the fastest way.

When Haldergen discovered the American army, he didn't care. According to his vision, after seeing his own tank, the Americans should have retreated.

The other side will disintegrate, and one side will work hard to chase after him, and you will be able to chase after Reykjavik.

Who knew that they actually set up defensive positions and killed their own drivers.

However, this also shows that the opponent does not have effective and reliable anti-tank weapons, and what he will face is anti-tank guns, anti-tank grenades, and anti-tank mobilizers.

To deal with this weapon, you must enter the battle formation and rush over under the protection of infantry.

At the same time, he could only stop and wait for the battle to end, because his driver was gone and no one in the tank was activated.

"Did you see it? Our anti-tank gun can effectively stop the German tanks!" Colonel Hunter shouted loudly to his subordinates to encourage confidence. As soon as he finished calling, he saw the Germans start to change formations.
