The speed of the sound is very slow, so you can only see a fireball coming out of the muzzle opposite. Black smoke is rising. Only when you are close, the shell comes almost at the same time as the sound. In addition, the shells arrive first and the sound is still behind!

At a distance of one kilometer, this has completely subverted the understanding of French tank soldiers.

When launching grenades, it is normal to hit a few kilometers. However, in this era, when launching armor piercing projectiles, they are almost within 500 meters. If they are far away, there is no accuracy at all!

Needless to say, in this era, even in later generations, the normal firing distance of those old tanks without advanced shooting and aiming systems, such as tank 59, is also within 500 meters( The 105 gun does not count.)

Now, a thousand meters away, German tanks are about to fire? Is this a bluff?

This idea only lasted for a second in their minds. A thousand meters away, the S-35 tank that thought it was very safe suddenly seemed to be hit hard by something. The car body shook back, and then there was a loud bang.

In fact, over the past few years, Germany has been developing advanced armor piercing projectiles, but there is no threat for the time being. The existing blunt headed steel core armor piercing projectiles are enough to destroy almost all tanks.

Therefore, they now use ordinary armor piercing bullets. Once new ammunition is put in, it is easy to be imitated by opponents, causing greater damage to German tanks.

The rotating blunt head armor piercing projectile touched the armor of the S-35 tank. The blunt head provided a positive effect. Under the huge impact energy, it directly penetrated the main armor of the tank.

Even ordinary armor piercing bullets can penetrate more than 100mm at a distance of 1000 meters. French tanks can't stop them at all!

Compared with its power, what's more terrible is its accuracy. It's a distance of 1000 meters. All of a sudden, it killed the opposite tank. In an instant, the French tank soldiers lost their last reason.

It's not war. It's death!

Put it in reverse and keep running!

The S-35 tank in front was frightened by nesper's attack, and de Gaulle in the back suddenly burst into a cold sweat on his head.

The Germans have come. Can they stop each other?

"Command, attack the other side's left wing!" De Gaulle said, gritting his teeth.

When you can't penetrate the other party, you have to go around the other party's side. This is the common sense that every armored soldier should know!

After all, the armor of the tank can't be the same thick everywhere. Otherwise, the tank is an iron knot and can't move at all. The tank is used for charging and trapping, so the armor on the front is always the thickest and the armor on the side is thin.

If the front cannot penetrate, hit the side!

With his orders, the b-tank troops continued to move forward. They turned right in unison and wanted to attack from the other side's left wing.

However, the S-35 tanks are still collapsing. After all, the burning tanks are a living example. Their tanks can't stop the attack of the other party. If they stay here, they will die.

For this kind of work, let the stronger type B tank come!

Just as the B-type tanks continued to move forward and were ready to surround from the side, the number of German tanks on the opposite side had become more and more!

One, two, three, when the leading tank troops had crossed the bridge, nesper did not continue to wait. The battle that belonged to him had just begun.

Charge, charge, kill the French tanks!

This is a collision between steel and iron!

Nespel listened to the rumble of his tank and calmly ordered, 800 meters ahead, two secret positions to the right, type B tank, fire!

"Boom!" Tank guns roared again.

At this time, the opposite tank suddenly braked, so the shell splashed in front of the other party's body without causing any damage.

The other party is also experienced!

In fact, even in future generations, if there is a tank battle, the hit rate will not be very high. For example, 50% hit rate is an impossible number. Regardless of the first hit rate of the computer, it will be greatly reduced in actual combat.

In this era, the hit rate of tanks is even lower. It is often seen that during the war between the two armies, the tanks of both sides gallop, stop, fire and shells fly. However, after a battle, hundreds of shells are fired, which may leave the remains of more than a dozen tanks.

In contrast, the hit rate of German tank soldiers is already quite high, but this is not exactly the case. When they meet cunning opponents, their hit rate begins to decline.

In this case, nespel had long been prepared. He didn't care: "blunt armour piercing bullet, loading."

This time, the distance between the two sides was very close. At a distance of 600 meters, nesper's tanks opened fire again.

The roaring shell made a beautiful arc and flew over. At the same time, the opposite tank also fired!

In this era, the tank gun that can penetrate the Panther tank has not appeared yet. In the face of the shells fired by the other party, nesper did not dodge at all. In his vision, the target tank ignited a fire in an instant.

Hit again!

Nespel was very satisfied, and the shells fired by the other party didn't know where they had flown, so he didn't feel anything.

"Go, go on!" De Gaulle continued to shout, "if we get closer, we will break through them."

With the destruction of type B tanks, the fighting will here was also hit. Now, it was inspired by de Gaulle. This was the most tragic battle of the French armored forces!

But just after de Gaulle finished shouting, the roar behind him disappeared.

"What's going on?" De Gaulle bowed his head and shouted inside.

"Engine failure!" Shouted the tank man.

The engine failed, which immediately changed de Gaulle's face.

The weight of this tank is huge. Therefore, the French engineers specially designed the engine. At first, it was 250 horsepower, and then it was increased to 307 horsepower. This is enough to drive the tank to the design speed.

However, the reliability of this engine is quite poor! Under the usual careful maintenance, there are still various faults. Now, on the battlefield, it breaks down again.

too bad! The tank that has lost power is the other party's live target!

With the loss of the power system, the power supply was interrupted, the radio lost contact, and the surrounding b-tanks had an ominous feeling.

What's going on? Their command car didn't leave and didn't give orders. Was General de Gaulle going to run? If he's going to run away, the others will fight a fart!

Besides, this is not a battle. It's just death, okay?

Finally, a type B tank stopped, and then began to reverse.
