Chapter 1176: Spitfire tanks show off (1/2)

”The resistance of the Soviets is a bit strong. These fortifications are endless, which is really annoying.” Retiring from the front, the gun commander beside Karyus complained.

Inside their tank, 20 rounds of high-explosive grenades were loaded, and they were all empty. The remaining armor-piercing shells were of little value to those fortifications, so they had to withdraw from the battle.

The sky was already bright, and the sound of firefighting was everywhere in the city. At the time of the last attack, they also encountered an anti-tank gun pushed by the Soviets. Although they finally killed the anti-tank gun, it was on their armor. , Leaving a crater.

This makes them a little angry.

After retreating more than 100 meters, in a small square behind, the fuel truck and ammunition truck were all ready, and the tanks began to refuel and reload quickly. At the same time, after the fierce battle for so long, everyone’s stomachs The hungry screamed.

Just when they were taking a few bites of dry food from the field, a new team of tanks rushed up. These tanks were exactly the same as theirs. They belonged to a variant of the Panther 3, but Karyus After taking a look, he immediately became excited: ”Now, the Soviets have good fruit.”

”What do you mean?” the new gunmaster asked puzzledly.

”The new tanks we went up were fire-breathing tanks.” Karyus said: ”You didn't notice the fire-breathing port on the turret just now, did you? The barrel is fake. This is a weapon we use specifically for street fighting.

Suddenly, smiles appeared on everyone's faces, the flame-throwing tanks, let the Soviets taste it!

The concept of the Spitfire tank has been around for a long time. On the Polish battlefield, the Spitfire tank modified by the German Panther 3 burned the Poles to the ground. This tank has been proven to have good combat capabilities in actual combat. After that, it was put into production.

At the beginning, the production of the Panther 3 was limited and it was to be used by the main battle forces. The production of this special tank was scarce, but later, as the French and British local factories were producing this tank, the production was greatly improved, so , This modified street fighting weapon has also been integrated into production equipment.

At this time, the tank soldiers inside were also extremely excited. They listened to the sound of the engine at the tail, and looked at the front through the observation hole, and they soon came to the area of ​​crossfire.

Because of the loss of the help of the tank, the machine gun position on the opposite street corner was shooting frantically at this time. It was a position of a Maxim water-cooled heavy machine gun. The heavy machine gun blocked a whole platoon of Germany. The advance of the infantry.

At this time, they were suppressed and could not hold their heads up.

There was a rumble sound from behind, and they immediately became happy. The tank came, and the tank came again!

Street fighting is cruel. The close cooperation of infantry and tanks can greatly reduce losses. Almost all German soldiers have undergone special training. Now, when they see tanks coming, they also want to follow behind the tanks. The turret hatch immediately opened, and the commander shouted loudly: ”Pay attention to the wind direction and keep a distance of more than five meters.”

Then he closed the lid again, leaving the messy infantry behind. What happened?

Keep a distance of more than five meters and pay attention to the wind direction?

Only the platoon leader suddenly woke up, and suddenly smiled on his face: ”Now there is a good show. Let's follow. By the way, the east of the tank is far away from the tank. It is westerly now.”

They followed behind the tank and moved forward slowly. At this time, the heavy machine guns that had just stopped, seeing their charge, began to fire intensively again.

Suddenly, from a small opening in the front of the turret of this tank, a long stream of liquid, viscous liquid, appeared light red, and a stream of gasoline volatilized can be smelled in the air. The smell, after a second, this liquid column, starting from the position of the tank, burned fiercely and turned into a fire column.
