Steel Soviet Union

The German offensive force, which has both air raid support and artillery support, is rarely able to survive this year. Although the scale, density, and actual effect of the pre-attack firepower preparation may not be very good, at least it is better than nothing, isn't it? ? What kind of bike do you need now that things are like this? The first wave of assaults that followed was indeed more intense than in the past.

boom--

Ding-ding——

call out--

"Don't worry, it's not penetrated! At 11 o'clock, the German's Black Panther, fire and send him to the sky!"

"Loading completed!"

"Death! Fasis!"

boom--

It's not polite to reciprocate. The 75mm full-caliber hooded armor-piercing projectile that hit the upper part of the IS6 heavy tank's body bounced off on the spot, and was quickly retaliated by a 122mm full-caliber armor-piercing projectile of the same type.

The 122 armor-piercing projectile, which spanned a firing distance of more than 800 meters, hit the armor plate on the front of the Panther's body, shooting out fierce and dazzling steel sparks.

Just like the German advance troops that were wiped out previously, the main German forces that followed also used the outdated Panther 1 medium tanks. It can be seen that although Black Panther 1 has been discontinued long ago, there is still a considerable stock that has not been exhausted, which is enough to form a complete equipment scale.

This level of sloping armor defense on the front of the Panther 1 car body can still not withstand the ferocious blow of the 122 Heirloom even if it is extended to a distance of 800 meters.

The powerful and heavy full-caliber armor-piercing projectile carried extremely strong caliber crushing kinetic energy. Like a heavy hammer hitting the front, it directly smashed open the armor on the front of the Panther's body and poured into it.

Just like most of the Panther 1s that were taken away by one shot of the 122 gun, this unlucky Panther 1 could not escape the detonation of the ammunition of its predecessors, and the sad end of the stone head being separated in an instant, and in an instant it was destroyed by the fierce fire. During the shock, the turret was thrown off, flames shot into the sky, and it was blown to pieces on the spot.

This is the fate of being penetrated by the 122 Heirloom with a huge charge in the warhead, no matter you are No. 3, No. 4, Black Panther, Tiger, or even King Tiger. The ultra-high ammunition explosion probability supported by the huge warhead charge is equal to all. The aftereffects of the 122 Heirloom nuclear bomb are all equal. It is basically such a simple truth.

The 1st Stalin Guards Tank Division, which abandoned all unnecessary and cumbersome equipment in pursuit of complete mechanization, did not even have a few decent anti-tank guns, but this did not mean that this legendary ace unit lacked anti-tank weapons. Firepower.

The division's more than two hundred heavy artillery pieces with a caliber of over 100 mm and above, mounted on vehicles and protected by heavy armor and fully enclosed protection, are a terrible nightmare that the German armored forces cannot escape.

Heavy tanks and ISU-152 self-propelled artillery were deployed on the position. The defensive position serving as an anti-tank bunker looked like a deadly hedgehog full of steel thorns. The Germans who wanted to swallow the hedgehog whole in one gulp were pricked until it was instantly filled with blood before they could stuff it into their mouths. The flaming wreckage that was destroyed on the offensive road was not just a few single-digit vehicles.

The German army, which was absolutely unwilling to give up, was still charging forward. The steel fortresses deployed on the position were turning their turrets to search for the next target. The black holes in the muzzles were shooting out the same deadly tongues of flame just now.

Only this time, the result that followed was slightly different.

Ding-ding——

crackling——

call out--

The shrill scream that broke through the air was followed by the harsh sound of sparks flying and ricocheting. The Panther tank, which was also shot on the front of the vehicle, withstood this powerful and heavy blow. The entire tank The tank continued to press on the accelerator and charge forward without even stopping.

Malashenko, who clearly witnessed this scene from his commander's periscope, raised his lips. It was not that surprising that such a situation would occur.

"Mixed together, right? Let's see how many Black Panther IIs you have mixed in!"

boom--

Crunchy crunchy——

There is no reason why the Red Army should not use the defensive weapons that the Germans make good use of. The anti-tank minefield laid out in front of the position is a masterpiece just laid last night.

A Black Panther II, whose tracks were broken in the loud explosion, stumbled forward for several meters like a vicious dog with its legs broken before it came to a stop.

The situation of being in a high-speed off-road state meant that even if its tracks were blown off, it would still continue to move forward with inertia that could not be stopped for an instant, and the completely destroyed left walking device could not support its normal driving. Disjointed.

The final result was that the Panther 2, with the remaining running gear on the left side already floating in the air and the broken tracks thrown away due to inertia, drifted sideways on the spot, and the grass and soil flew into the air. Most of his belly was turned sideways and directly exposed to direct fire from the Red Army's position, and he was sentenced to death in an instant.

"Poor bastard, what's the difference between this and a drunkard?"

The principle of killing you while you are sick applies at any time. The battlefield is not a bullshit duel ground that values ​​fairness.

Malashenko, who was muttering softly, saw that the unlucky Black Panther II turned into a blazing torch in the next second, like a volcano erupting. An armor-piercing projectile that flew from nowhere directly tore through the fragile vertical armor on the side of the car body and penetrated into it. It also blew up and blew up the crew members who didn't even have a chance to escape. sky.

Speaking of these anti-tank mines, they are not actually equipment of the Stalin Guards 1st Tank Division itself. But the commander of a certain Guards Infantry Division in the rear heard that Comrade Lao Ma was going to fight a defensive battle, so he specially sent some trucks and supporting troops over here. He was told that he hoped they could be of some use. .

Judging from the current results, this thing obviously played a role as a stumbling block, throwing a tantrum into the Germans who were not expecting it.

Not only one of the German tanks that rushed too hard and seemed unable to stop for a while got stuck in an anti-tank mine position, and its tracks were blown off on the spot.

The few Panthers and No. 4 vehicles that rushed ahead were paralyzed by the crackling mine explosions and were forced to stop moving forward.

The fact that they had run into a minefield was already obvious. Even the unlucky infantrymen following the tanks stepped on the mines, taking with them the unlucky comrades around them who had not had time to avoid them and "flyed into the air" together.

How many mines did the Russians lay? Are there other more exciting things waiting for you ahead? Should we rush into the minefield now or retreat?

Survival or destruction, this is a classic question that has once again been thrown to the front of the German army.

Malashenko would rather see these bastards bite the bullet and continue to charge forward, but the actual result is obviously not satisfactory.

Looking at the German offensive troops retreating like a tide before they even touched the position, Malashenko, who was quite disappointed with the first wave of attacks that ended in an anticlimactic manner, also saw something worth noting.

"It seems that the troops are still insufficient. If the troops were strong enough, they would definitely rush over the minefield. It's not like Kursk has never done this before. It seems that the air strike of the aviation force really pulled the Germans' march forward. awful."
