For Stalin's tanks, reloading was quite cumbersome. The firing speed of sub loaded ammunition was so slow. Therefore, every shot is very valuable.

At this time, the commander of a Stalin tank was still regretting. The line of sight was high. It should have aimed at the other party's turret. As a result, the other party got stuck and flew past the other party's turret!

Instead of hitting their tanks, they killed their commander.

"Come on, load!" He shouted loudly, "don't worry about the two trapped tanks. They can't escape. Let's kill the third one first."

At this time, the 66th armored battalion realized that it had been ambushed!

"On the left, there is a tank position!" A conductor shouted, "attention, nine o'clock, fire!"

The turret of the third Tiger tank quickly turned to the left and wanted to kill the Soviet tank position opposite. At this time, they only wanted to protect the two Tiger tanks that unfortunately fell into the swamp. Unexpectedly, the danger was coming.

Their best way is to speed up and leave the area.

If it is a wide area, their tanks can move around in the field, give full play to their mobility, move towards the enemy's position and kill the other party.

But not now.

Now they only have this way. Because they started very fast just now, they brake one by one, very close.

The road is very small. It is impossible for them to reverse. Only temporarily leaving here is the best choice.

But they didn't.

"Boom, boom!" Stalin tanks are firing. They are aiming at the third tank!

As long as this tank is killed, the German tank troops can't move forward, because the only road has been blocked by it, and they can't retreat at the same time, because the road is too narrow, and the reversing of tanks is not simple.

When the turret turned, countless black smoke appeared in front of the gunner, and several Stalin tanks opposite were firing at him!

"Boom!" The Tiger Tank opened fire fiercely. For the German tank soldiers, there is no fear and weakness in their dictionary, only constant fighting!

Almost as he opened fire, 122 mm shells flew towards his tank.

"Bang!" An armor piercing bullet hit the turret heavily, broke the additional armor, and continued to drill in on the main armor of the turret. Fortunately, it didn't drill through!

"Bang!" The second shell, less than ten centimeters away from it, hit one side. The two shells were side by side and arranged outside. It looked quite spectacular.

The third shell flew, flew one meter away from the turret, and plunged into the swamp behind.

The fourth and fifth were almost taken off. The line of sight of the fourth was low. It pierced the side of the car body, close to the top of the load wheel. The armor here was not thick.

It tried to drill forward, drill forward, just before its speed disappeared, it had already drilled in!

The gunner suddenly felt a pain in his lower body. Then, fresh blood splashed all over his face. He lowered his head and looked at his bottom. There was nothing left.

The 122 mm armor piercing bullet broke his lower body. At the same time, it bounced in the turret, sparks splashed, and then it hit one side of the ammunition.

"Boom!" The 122 mm blunt armor piercing bullet successfully penetrated the side armor of the Tiger tank for the first time!

This first success was enough for them to cheer. Before that, the Tiger tank was like a mountain, pressing on their heads, making everyone under great pressure. They had not hit through the Tiger Tank head-on.

Now I see that German tanks will explode like their tanks. This scene is the most exciting.

From the tail of the turret, the flame quickly burst out, forming a hot heat flow. Two or three seconds after the heat flow came out, a more violent explosion occurred.

"Boom!" It can be seen that the tank is burning, but it is not as heroic as the Soviet tank. The turret was lifted. Although there is huge black smoke in the turret, it is still in stable contact with the vehicle body.

The driver and radio man in front climbed out of the burning tank. They knew that it was the tank's pressure plate that saved them.

After the tank was hit, the personnel inside the tank were often crushed by huge pressure and burned to ashes by fire because of the explosion. In order to avoid this terrible situation, the German tank took a new idea when developing it.

Pressure relief plate.

The turret of the tank was lifted off because the huge high-pressure air flow had no place to vent. If we can find a suitable channel to fly away, the terrible scene of martyrdom and explosion can be greatly reduced.

This is the function of the pressure relief plate. It opens when it is hit and allows these high-pressure air currents to dissipate quickly.

Although there was such a device, it could not save the lives of the three members in the turret, but only provided the members in front with an opportunity to escape.

Like now.

The two members escaped successfully, and the battle had just begun.

For Germany, they are in a bad situation.

They are in a long line of snakes, and now the enemy is on their left!

If it was in an ordinary place, they directly turned the vehicle and rushed over, but not now, because there are swamps all around.

Their only way was to rush forward, but as the third Tiger tank was destroyed, the road was blocked. They didn't dare to detour. The two Tiger tanks in front just entered the swamp for this reason.

What should I do?

We can only fight bravely. As long as we kill all the enemy tanks, we can ensure our own safety!

"Turn, fire!"

With the death of the battalion commander, the deputy battalion commander took over the command. He shouted on the radio.

The Panther 3 tanks behind can't turn in this narrow space because they don't have the ability to turn in place.

The Panther 3 tank can only turn forward and backward continuously, which is similar to the car turning. At most, the track does not move when it changes, and the track on the other side rotates to complete the turning with the minimum radius.

The Tiger tanks have no problem. The advanced hydraulic transmission system allows the tracks on both sides to rotate in reverse. Now, the track on the left turns back and the track on the right turns forward. A big pit is screwed out on the road. Tiger tanks have completed the action of turning in place smartly.

The tank was destroyed just now because it was hit from the side. Its body was on the side and the turret turned 90 degrees, so the turret was not pierced, but it was passed through the body.

Now, the Tiger tank has made a natural and unrestrained turn in place, aiming the thickest armor at the direction of the greatest threat. Even the Soviet Stalin tank with 122 mm tank gun can not penetrate the Tiger tank with additional armor!

At this time, koroya, who watched the war from a distance, admired rokosovsky even more.

All this was expected by rokosovsky.

German tanks will chase after them, take the enemy lightly and sink the car in a straight line, and then the tanks behind will not escape.

Even if they will turn to deal with it in situ, they have thought of another big killing move prepared by their own side, which can also start!
