The black smoke was getting closer and closer. When everyone saw the opposite tank, their hearts sank in an instant.

Tiger tank, Tiger tank!

This is the most advanced tank in Germany. On the battlefield of the Soviet Union, it is almost invincible. There are no weapons on the front to penetrate it. We can only think of ways from the side or the back.

Our own anti tank gun can not pose any threat to it.

Who would have thought that the German landing troops would come up with Tiger tanks? This is simply impossible!

A company of Tiger tanks is enough to crush the whole infantry division. Only the momentum at that time will bring great pressure to people.

When he saw the Tiger tank, even Colonel hunter was stunned. He had enough courage, but he couldn't let his troops fall into a desperate battle. After all, the gap between the enemy and ourselves was too big.

From this point of view, he should retreat back, or retreat to the mountain on the left, and save himself first.

But in that case, Reykjavik in the rear will be dangerous. This is the only place that may stop the Germans from moving forward. Once the Germans rush to Reykjavik, Iceland will change hands. Iceland's position in American strategy is self-evident.

If the United States grasps Iceland, it can use Iceland as a springboard to land in Europe. If Germany grasps Iceland, it can also use Iceland as a springboard to land in the United States, and the United States will face the risk of local invasion!

No, absolutely not!

"Prepare an anti tank grenade and blow up its tracks!" Colonel hunt shouted, "its tracks are the most vulnerable. We must defeat German tanks!"

At this time, the other party is getting closer and closer, and you can clearly see the other party's rear.

The number of Tiger tanks was not large, followed by Panther tanks and infantry combat vehicles. When he saw here, Colonel Hunter made a battle plan in his heart.

After a short resistance, let go of these Tiger tanks and hit the ones behind them!

"Boom!" Just then, the opposite tank had opened fire, and the other party was actually shooting on the way! The high quality of German tankers shocked everyone.

Without the help of any electronic equipment, firing on the road was like shooting mosquitoes with a rifle. However, the incoming shells hit the truck they blocked on the road accurately. In an instant, the truck was burning.

The ground trembled, the tanks roared, and the new soldiers were afraid.

It's normal to be in the battlefield for the first time.

Baslon is a veteran.

When the German tank came at high speed, he was not afraid. He aimed at it motionless and waited for the opportunity.

The United States began to pay little attention to tanks. Look at the tanks in the United States in the early stage of World War II. Sherman is not famous by performance, but by output and assembly line.

This anti tank gun is not from the United States, but developed by Britain.

As early as October 1934, the British artificially developed a new anti tank gun and put forward relevant technical specifications and parameters. Its total weight will not exceed 16 kg and has the ability to break through 25 mm thick steel plates 200 meters away.

The designer of this anti tank gun was captain Boyce. He died after the gun was manufactured, so the weapon was named after him and officially adopted at the end of 1937.

At the same time, it can use w mark1 steel core armor piercing projectile or W Mark2 tungsten core armor piercing projectile, and its performance has reached the design requirements.

When it first appeared, there was no problem dealing with the tanks at that time, but the thickness of the front armor of the Tiger Tank exceeded 100 mm. Hitting it was almost like scratching.

Destruction is impossible, but it can still pose a threat!

Its front sight, the driver's observation hole and other positions are weak. Hitting there can also stop the other party's progress!

The tanks continued to rumble up, getting closer and closer. Almost 100 meters later, baslon pulled the trigger.

"Boom!"

The gun was expanded and its caliber reached 13.97mm. When it was fired, it was more like the sound of a cannon. With the bullets flying out, the huge recoil hit baslon's shoulder.

Although the muzzle brake offset part of the recoil force, the remaining recoil force was still quite large. In this case, baslon's whole body seemed to tremble violently, and the internal organs in the whole abdominal cavity were shaken.

Baslon didn't care. After shooting, he immediately held his gun and quickly moved to the side.

When I just shot, there was too much movement. I must have exposed the target.

Sure enough, the next moment, the Tiger tank had stopped, and the muzzle turned to the place where he had just fired. Then, a black smoke came out of the muzzle, and the 88 mm grenade destroyed baslon's position.

If baslon was just a second slower, he would be blown up. After the explosion, he picked up his gun again.

The German tank didn't move again.

The driver was killed.

The bullet actually came in from the observation hole, broke the narrow bulletproof glass in front and hit the driver's head. The driver's head immediately burst open. White brains and red blood flowed everywhere.

"Damn it!" In the rear turret, haldagen could not help swearing, and then shouted, "radio officer, inform the whole army to turn into battle formation!"

Just now, they rushed all the way along the highway next to the coastline. This is the fastest way.

After discovering the American army, haldagen didn't care. According to his assumption, after seeing his own tanks, the Americans should retreat.

The other side will break up, and its own side will work hard to catch up, and it will be able to catch up with Reykjavik all the way.

Who knows, they actually set up a defensive position and killed their own driver.

However, this also shows that the other party does not have effective and reliable anti tank weapons. What he will face is anti tank guns, anti tank grenades and anti tank flasks.

To deal with such weapons, we must turn into a combat formation and rush past under the protection of infantry.

At the same time, he had to stop and wait for the end of the battle, because his driver was gone and no one in the tank started.

"See? Our anti tank guns can effectively stop German tanks! " Colonel Hunter shouted to his men to encourage confidence. As soon as he finished shouting, he saw that the Germans began to change their formation.

too bad!
