Redemption of WWII

Chapter 75 Beethoven's Fault

The tanks of the 200th Armored Division of the British Army fired revenge cannons. Due to the tension, the accuracy rate was really not very good. 【】Nearly [-] tanks fired guns, and less than one-tenth of the German tanks were killed.

But anyway, it can be regarded as hitting a German tank, and it is still within a distance of less than 500 meters.When the German tank was hit, the tankers of the British Seventh Armored Division couldn't help cheering.The wires of the entire armored force were filled with a joyful and peaceful atmosphere. The supreme leader of the United Kingdom shook hands with the members of each tank and chatted cordially, and then took a group photo with the members of each tank. up.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. This is an eternal truth.When the tankers of the British Seventh Armored Division hadn't recovered from the tension of firing guns, the British tank commanders made amazing discoveries.The German tanks that were shelled by themselves were all right, none of them were on fire, not one was smoking, not even one that broke down.

The tankers of the British army were petrified in the tanks on the spot. Could it be that the guns they fired just now were loaded wrong, and they were all the usual coaches?Impossible, if one or two are wrong, 200 will be wrong.If the guns are damp, the shooting effect is not good, and it is unlikely. If the guns of 200 tanks are damp, the quartermaster will have been shot by the court-martial, and he will install tanks and run away hundreds of times. Kilometers just discovered?The British tank commanders searched for the reason one after another.Finally, it was determined that this was not the cause of the gun.That problem will appear on the Germans.

Could it be that the Germans used some secret weapon that made these guns useless?The British are still making conjectures, and these conjectures have greatly enriched the imagination of these tank commanders. After the war, some people even proved Goldbach's conjecture 000 by virtue of this spirit.

But no matter how guessed it is, the German tanks can't stop firing guns.When the German tanks passed through the 'flaming' formation composed of burning British tanks, the formation could no longer be kept so perfect.But the overall effect is to advance in an anti-fan formation.

However, as soon as the smoke emerged, he was beaten up by the British army, and anyone would be angry.So now the problem is serious and the instructor is very angry.

These German instructors have always been perfectionists whose heads can be broken, blood can flow, and hairstyles can't be messed up.First, the formation of the attack was disrupted, and then the paint on the outside of the tank was blackened by the gun.How can these instructors endure this? One by one, as if they had been humiliated, issued orders to stop, aim, and shoot extremely quickly.

Of course, the guns fired in this way will cause great confusion. Of course, it does not mean that the accuracy of shooting is affected and cannot hit the British tanks.On the contrary, all 40 rounds of guns killed the British tanks, but the effect of this attack was not as amazing as it was at the beginning.In the beginning, these 'tiger' tanks were all focused on hitting targets in one area, and instantly had devastating consequences on targets in one area.But now it has become a tank group covering the entire British army, and the effect is of course not as obvious as it was at first.Some even hit the same British tank target twice, causing a 'waste of medicine'.As the saying goes, 'It is better to break one finger than to hurt ten fingers', which is the truth.

But this is only the professional thinking of those German instructors, but it is not the case in the eyes of the British on the opposite side.The British tank commanders were finally awakened by these German 88mm tank guns, and they were stunned from all the guesswork.Immediately afterwards, he was shocked by the explosion of the tanks of his own people next to him one after another.Of course, the commanders in the tanks on those bodies will not feel it.Because they have lost the right to feel this vibration.

The surviving tank commanders of the British army quickly issued a combat order, "Loader to load the gun."

As soon as the British loader loaded the gun into the barrel, the German's second round fired again.The goal of the German tanks this time is still very confusing, but there is no waste of medicine.Some German tanks had their shooting vision blocked, so they didn't forcefully shoot British tanks, but chose some armored vehicles to shoot.However, the effect is also amazing. The scene of armored vehicles exploding is much fiercer than that of tanks, because many armored vehicles are medicine transport vehicles, and they move together with soldiers.

In front of the 88mm cannon of the German 'Tiger', these armored vehicles are like household paper, which can be broken in one pass.The exploding armored vehicle directly killed the vehicle's explosives, causing a more powerful explosion than the German 88mm gun.The soldiers of the armored vehicles were immediately exploded into colorful butterflies flying in the sky.

At this time, the commander in the British 'Sherman m4' tank was busy ordering the calibration of the front sight of the gun barrel, trying to hit the German tanks directly.The scope of the British tank just accurately aimed at the German tank.While waiting for the commander's order to shoot, the third round of German artillery came one after another.

Some British tank commanders were surprised to find that the guns of the German tanks spewed out of the muzzle with flames, broke through the sound barrier in the air, formed a conical shock wave, and then flew straight over them.The tank commander of the British army, even before the screaming information sent by the brain in the face of fear was transmitted to the muscles controlling the mouth, he was killed by the explosive jet formed by the gun that had penetrated the tank armor.

From the time when the British army fired the gun to loading the gun and then to aiming.The German tanks fired and fired three shots.Three cannons, this is three times the firing speed of British tanks.Just like the speed of a rifle facing the speed of a machine gun, this kind of shooting made the entire British Seventh Armored Division feel extremely frightened and naive, especially with such high-precision shooting.All of a sudden, all the surviving tank commanders of the British Seventh Armored Division shattered into two halves.

But no matter how naive and fearful, we still have to eat, we still have to live, and we still have to fight.Although the three rounds of shelling by the German army hit the target without exception, they only destroyed 50 'Sherman M4' tanks of the British army.But more than 100 armored vehicles were destroyed.

Of course, many of them were killed by the explosives in the armored vehicles that exploded around them.However, there are also armored vehicles that did not explode after being hit.That's because the German 88mm gun directly penetrated the steel plate of the armored vehicle, pierced the steel plate on the other side from the inside, and then flew out and hit the vehicle behind.

However, the soldiers of the British armored vehicles drove this kind of armored vehicles with a large hole in the front and back in France.The terrifying radial shape formed by the steel plates torn by the German guns on the armored vehicles also made the British soldiers really have no courage to face it.

In less than 50 seconds, the losses of the British 150th Armored Division increased by another quarter.At this time, the number of British tanks was less than [-].The tank commanders of the remaining British troops all gave orders to shoot one after another.

Revenge must be revenge.We must avenge the sacrificed comrades.Turning fear into strength, 150 guns flew towards the 40 German tanks with the British army's strong hope of revenge.Because of the different angles, these British tank commanders tried to avoid the front of the German tanks as much as possible, and chose the side as possible as the target.Because they know that the side armor of the tank is far thinner than the front armor.

But they forgot one thing.That is, only when the gun is at a right angle of 90 degrees, the force of hitting the target will be greater.And when they chose to shoot the side of the German tank, the gun and the German tank were at a large angle.The shape makes the "tiger" standard armor, which was originally intended to use inclined armor, become the role of inclined armor when it collides with the gun.Originally, the steel armor was only 80 mm thick, but with a certain angle, the actual steel armor became 110 mm.

Most of these guns were set aside by the German Tiger tank ear side armor.Some barely hit the steel plate of the tank. Under the counterforce, they were covered by the steel plate, and the force of the armor-piercing zh could only explode outward. The explosion was terrible, but in fact, the damage to the personnel in the tank was minimal.

It's not that all the guns didn't work, but a few hit the road wheels of the track.The road wheels on the outside of the 'Tiger' were broken, but the wide 750 mm track of the 'Tiger' was densely packed with three layers of road wheels.The outermost layer was shattered, and there are two layers of road wheels inside to support the movement of the tank.Although the speed has been affected, compared with the 'Sherman m4' of the burning British army one by one, the tiger's situation is many times better.

However, the firing of the British army this time was regarded as the instructor in the German "Tiger" who had "woke up".One after another, they aimed their muzzles at the British 'Sherman m4' tanks that hadn't cleared the gunpowder smoke from the muzzles.The 'Tiger' whose shooting range was blocked also used its clumsy and powerful body to directly move the wreckage of the British tanks in front of it to the side.However, when arriving at these wreckages, the commanders of these 'tigers' did not forget to give the order to locate the target.

The sound of 88mm tank guns sounded on this battlefield again. These instructors seemed to pay attention to firing the guns, and they all cared about the control of the firing time of the guns.This makes the firing of the 40 'Tiger' tanks seem to come from a single sound.Coupled with the accurate time control between the two shots, the interval between firing the cannon is very similar to a rhythm, a rhythm of music.It is not an exaggeration to describe this rhythmic firing of cannons as the beat of a musician.

This kind of rhythmic beat is obviously Beethoven's style, and it is also the habit of those instructors who use Beethoven's music to cultivate their sentiments.

However, the ears of these British troops on the opposite side are so pleasant to listen to music.The German 88mm cannon was the instrument.And what they reap is their own life.The source of all this turned out to be that these German tank instructors usually love Beethoven's music.

nn, it can be said that it is all Beethoven's fault.
