Steel Soviet Union

Chapter 2304?? Roaring tigers besieging the city (Part 1)

The American troops on the outskirts of the town were hopping around, just like rats that exploded after being stabbed in their nests. The scene of shouting and rushing was actually more lively than the Chinese market in the early morning.

But fortunately, the U.S. military is still the U.S. military in the final analysis. It is an armed force used by the most powerful industrial country in the world to look after homes and enforce its will. It is not some armed group with different religions and sects, working around the house with cats and dogs. It can still cook no matter how bad it is. Perform the basic performance that you should perform.

"Bazooka ready, get me a loader, quick!"

"Load the machine gun. I need to reload the 30 belt. Frank, go get some. Now!"

"Hello? In the city! We need tank support. A large group of Germans are coming outside the town. They have a fucking King Tiger! Send all the available support here quickly and request immediate support!"

Da da da da——

Bang bang bang bang——

The U.S. military at the sentry positions and checkpoints outside the town began to open fire. The various small arms and firearms that were first to start working were instantly involved. The rain of bullets that hit their heads and faces seemed very fierce, but it was still not enough to stop the roaring and roaring ones coming towards them. The advancing German treasure.

"Pay attention to concealment! Follow the tank and move forward!"

Those SS armored grenadiers who were on the King Tiger tanks for coordinated infantry-tank attacks were certainly not fools. Before the U.S. rifle, machine gun and small arms positions on the opposite side fired a volley of fire, they had already got out of the car and started at a suitable distance. Transition from rapid maneuvering to a coordinated infantry-tank cover attack and advance forward.

Although there are not many people, they can work together with this heavily armored team commanded by Wittmann. From this alone, you can tell that these ruthless gangs are by no means just ordinary people. If you think that This group of bloodthirsty fanatics are really trying to pick their own food, so that's a big mistake.

The SS officer held the latest stg44 assault rifle and shouted to his subordinates who gathered around him and followed the King Tiger tank not to fall behind and attack forward. The huge King Tiger tank was extremely difficult to attack. The heavy armor defense that was destroyed from the front was their absolutely stable mobile shield.

At the same time, on the other side, behind the coordinated attack of King Tiger tanks and SS Panzergrenadiers, Wittmann led a total of 4 King Tiger tanks, including his own command vehicle, to attack the town. The US military's firepower points that had been exposed on the periphery were concentrated and bombarded.

"At eleven o'clock, the American tank! Sherman! is coming out of the street!"

"I saw it! Little loli, come to daddy!"

"Armor-piercing bullets are good!"

"Fire!"

boom--

The 105mm main gun, which is even more slender than the 88cm long, roars and fires. The powerful combination of precise Krupp craftsmanship and Zeiss optical sights makes this new type of main gun larger in diameter and more powerful. The gun still has super accuracy that is not inferior to that of the previous generation Chang 88. The roar of artillery fire can accurately hit the target in just an instant.

crackling——

Kaka——

Boom——

Ding-ding——

There was the sharp and loud sound of the impact of armor-piercing bullets, the twisting and deformation sound of armor plates being torn apart, the concussive explosion sound of projectiles exploding together with ammunition and fuel, and the impact sound of the Xie Mantou turret falling to the ground after rising high and falling heavily.

There was no suspense, it was as easy as a red-hot razor piercing butter.

This 4a3e8 Sherman tank, which used a 5 times caliber long-barreled 76mm main gun, was stopped by Master Wei's No. 007 Super King Tiger to guard the intersection without firing a single shot. The stuck point sniper kills and takes away with one shot.

As soon as the entire front of the car drove out of the street, it didn't even have time to complete the turn of the car body. There was a loud bang and the explosion penetrated the upper armor, exploded the ammunition rack, and flipped off the turret, turning into a blazing hot steel. coffin.

It cannot be said that the US military performed poorly. In fact, the response speed of the US military in the town was quite fast.

Take the U.S. tank crew, for example. In less than two minutes after the first explosion, the tanks were dispatched to the last street intersection just one step away from the outer defensive position of the town.

To put it bluntly, this kind of reaction speed can't be achieved by a fisherman who is far away from his own car and who doesn't know whether he is bragging or taking a nap. This is obviously a speed that can only be achieved by armored soldiers who are guarding their own vehicles and are in a state of response at any time.

It was precisely because he saw this situation clearly before his eyes that Wittmann, who had never underestimated the enemy in tactics, became even more convinced that his guesses and judgments were accurate.

The American troops in the city are not simple. They are not the kind of losers who bully the stormtroopers and then put their weapons and weapons into storage, let their horses go to the south, and start wandering around the town like an uncle without any warning.

No matter how you put it, at least the commander of this group of US troops, that is, the US military officer mentioned in the spying report who may be the battalion commander, is very good at deploying the entire town and maintaining the alert status of his troops.

It didn't matter whether his men were full of complaints or willing to carry out his orders. In short, they just did it. Whether it was the security position outside the town or the response speed of the US military reinforcements, it was remarkable. Even if it was a lion commanding a group of sheep, it would still be the same. Better than a sheep commanding a pack of lions.

Considering the US military commander's troop formation and defensive alert status, Wittmann naturally classified it as an opponent "worthy of fighting", and immediately adjusted his mentality and began to go all out. The momentum continues to direct the battle.

"Continue to reload high-explosive bombs. The intersection has been blocked. Don't worry about that side for now! The Yankee machine gun position at one o'clock, take it out first! Fire!"

As Wittmann said, the situation on the other side of the street has been suppressed and there is no need to worry about it for the time being.

One of the main purposes of targeting and waiting at the intersection is to kill the leading car and use the wreckage of the leading car to block the intersection and cause traffic jams.

The burning steel wreckage and the accident scene where secondary explosions may occur at any time not only make the US infantry intimidated and dare not advance rashly, but even the US armored vehicles that follow up have to face how to push the wreckage away. Open the question of removal.

Even if another Sherman with the same horsepower were to forcefully push and ram it, it would not be a matter of minutes to completely remove the wreckage and restore the road to smooth flow. The precious time gained by this was enough for Wittmann to do a lot of things. On a battlefield where fighter planes were changing rapidly, this might be the key to victory.
