The observation hole is relatively small, so it needs to be close.

Now, Schmidt's eyes are close to the observation hole and look ahead through the slit.

Although his tanks are in the back, the triangular array and the three tanks all have their own vision. From here, Schmidt can see the rear of the rat tank in front of his side and have a vision of the right half circle.

Schmidt didn't know that the small observation hole in front of him was missed.

Distance, 1500 meters, cross wind 3, Lyudmila is calculating quickly and carefully. In addition to these data, she also has the other party's forward speed. In this case, she should estimate the amount in advance.

Lyudmila, with her rifle in her hand, leaned down very calmly, and then she pulled the trigger.

"Bang!" Flames came out of the muzzle. With the flame, a 7.62 mm bullet flew out of the gun chamber and spun forward.

In less than two seconds, it was in close contact with the huge tank, and, just right, the bullet went into the slit!

Just then, it met something hard and was blocked.

"Wow!" Schmidt only felt a flower in front of his eyes. Then, the glass cracked fine lines, and there seemed to be something embedded in the glass.

Schmidt immediately exclaimed, "there is a sniper opposite. He hit my observation hole. I can't see anything clearly!"

Schmidt was quite unfortunate and lucky.

If it is a Soviet tank, it is a slit and an observation hole. There is nothing on it. However, there is a thick layer of bulletproof glass on the German tank.

The Soviet Union's industry was not as developed as Germany. The glass of the Soviet fighter cockpit often had scratches, which made the pilots unable to see the outside, not to mention the tank. Everything paid attention to simplifying the production process and expanding the production. Therefore, the Soviet tank was a slit, and there was nothing. If there were bullets flying in from the slit, It can only be said that the tankers had bad luck.

But Germany is different.

Historically, from tank 3, the observation hole of German tanks has glass, but now, the German Panther tank has glass from the original model.

Having glass can have many advantages to prevent blowing sand and small flying insects from losing the eyes of tank hands. It is conducive to the sealing of tanks when crossing the river. Similarly, it can also block bullets!

For example, without this glass, Schmidt had been shot through his head and died in his driver's seat. Now, it's just the glass flower, and he can't see anything clearly.

"Keep moving at the present speed!" Captain Kurt shouted, "kill their snipers!"

When necessary, the driver can operate blindly. For example, in the past, the tank could only rely on infrared headlights in the dark, but only the commander had infrared receiving devices. The driver listened to the commander and drove as he said.

Now, although he could not see clearly, Schmidt was still moving the tank steadily, and Hans was ready.

The turret of the rat tank is quite heavy. Although the power of the hydraulic drive motor is increased, the rotation of the turret is almost as slow as that of the tiger. Fortunately, it is almost straight ahead now.

Just when Schmidt was shot, the smoke at the muzzle of the gun had just risen in the opposite position, and Hans took aim at it at once.

In other words, in less than five seconds after the other party fired, Hans's foot stepped on the launcher.

"Boom!"

The 128 mm tank gun made a huge roar.

The whole rat tank was shaking. At the muzzle, black smoke came out several meters high, enveloping the whole tank. In the black smoke, 128 mm high explosive grenades flew out.

Originally, tanks cannot be loaded directly. They are loaded only before shooting. This is because of the problem of ammunition type. Only when they meet the target can they be loaded by the commander.

However, the 128 mm chariot gun of the rat tank was stuffed with grenades when it set out.

They are going to attack the enemy's position. In this case, the grenade is the most suitable type of shell. At the same time, even if the enemy's tank appears, the 128 mm grenade is powerful enough.

At the same time, the greater advantage of using grenades is that there is no need to worry about accuracy.

If it is an armor piercing projectile, it must aim accurately before it can hit the target, and the grenade, the target is within its own killing radius.

Therefore, in the process of shelling, the mouse tank did not stop, but shot completely while moving.

With the roar of death, 128 mm shells splashed about 10 meters from the position where Lyudmila had just fired.

"Boom!" The violent explosion sounded, and a big pit was immediately opened on the ground. Countless shrapnel flew sideways, and the dust rose for more than 20 meters.

With the explosion as the center and within a radius of 20 meters, it is impossible for anyone to survive. If they are not well protected within 50 meters, they may also be scratched by shrapnel.

The violent explosion made everyone's eardrums buzzing on the position. When the smoke of the shell dissipated, their first thought was the safety of Lyudmila.

Where's Lyudmila? Was it blown up just now?

"Cough, cough." Lyudmila coughed twice, all her body was covered with dust, and her face was a little white.

Sure enough, being a sniper is the most terrible, because they face the enemy's artillery!

Just after one shot, Lyudmila immediately ran to the next position. Her caution saved her life. Even so, she was affected by the afterglow of the explosion.

Blood coughed up from the corners of her mouth.

"Comrade Lyudmila, are you hurt?" The company commander said with concern, "now you withdraw from the battle immediately."

Lyudmila was not injured by shrapnel, but she just fell on the ground at the nearby shooting position. As a result, when the 128 mm grenade exploded on the ground, the vibration came with the ground and forcibly injured her internal organs.

Lyudmila's eyes looked at the tanks in the distance. Those tanks with black cross marks were rumbling!

"No, I won't withdraw!" Lyudmila vomited blood mixed with saliva and said, "I want to live or die with the position!"

"Christopher, take Comrade Lyudmila out immediately!" Cried the company commander.

At this time, a rumbling voice came from behind. The company commander turned his head and saw that his reinforcements came up!
