The allied tank adopts a unique horizontal opposed engine. The defect of this engine is that it is wide. In order to insert the engine, the body has been slightly widened.

The Allied tanks in history have never left Britain. They were already in Britain when they were assigned to the British first armored division, which suffered heavy losses in the French campaign. When the first Armored Division was sent to Egypt, these tanks were transferred to the British ninth armored division.

Now, these seemingly advanced tanks were rescued.

Unfortunately, in front of German tanks, they think they are advanced tanks, they can only fight soy sauce.

The British tankers were stunned. When half of the captain's body fell into the tank, everyone was stunned. Although the gunner was an old soldier, he served only after the first World War and had never fought. The smell of blood filled the whole turret, which made people feel nauseous.

"Wow!" The loader vomited out first. On the narrow turret, he had no place at all and vomited directly to half of the commander's body.

As for the other tank commanders, seeing this scene, they quickly retracted their bodies and got into the turret. The narrow turret was crowded with three people, which was even more crowded. Moreover, they still needed to fight.

George didn't shrink back. He believed it was just an accident, and courage was the most important thing in battle.

Go, go on!

The distance between the two sides, in the rapid approach, all this is achieved by the excellent mobility of the Allied tanks.

You know, in the British system, the allies are ocean cruising tanks, which must have high mobility. Therefore, it deliberately strengthens the engine, has a full 340 horsepower, drives an 18 ton body, and the maximum speed can reach 50 kilometers per hour.

The unit horsepower is 18 horsepower per ton, and the acceleration performance is also very good.

Now, the Allied tanks are pounding rapidly. In contrast, the German tanks opposite are not very fast.

Why are you running so fast? If you want to shoot, you have to stop.

"Boom!" In a short time, Meyer's tank has fired four guns, the fourth gun, and finally saw the results.

88 mm armor piercing shells, the most common armor piercing shells with caps, were in close contact with a British allied tank.

"Bang!" When the armor piercing bullet was in close contact with the turret of the allied tank, with the impact, the rivets on the turret armor were all shaken away at this moment! The armor plate was punched through a hole in the middle and drilled in.

"Boom!" In the loud explosion, the whole small turret flew away. After the explosion, only the seat ring was left, still emitting green smoke.

The German gun smashed the turret of the British tank directly!

In addition to the great power of German tank guns, another major factor is that the turret of British tank guns is too unskilled.

When the German tank gun has begun to develop to 88mm, the tank must have a weight of at least 40 tons before it can have armor protection of more than 100mm. Now the British 18 ton tank has far from enough protection. Even if it adopts an inclined deck, it is far from enough.

As for another factor, the British armor is riveted.

The rivets at the armor joint are the most vulnerable parts. Just the contact of the shell directly shook the rivets away! If there are infantry nearby, these rivets will shoot into their bodies like bullets.

The tanks in World War I were riveted, but in World War II, they still used rivets, which was quite backward.

The British have difficulties because the four companies responsible for production, Lilan motors, nafield, LMS and British electric power, are seriously short of welders. Yes, the number of welders is insufficient, which makes them give in to the output and adopt rivet structure.

Now, rivets have brought a terrible death trap to the British armored soldiers on the front line.

Even if it is welded, it can't stop the German tank guns, but at least there won't be such a scene that the whole turret is broken, and this scene even scares the British tankers.

In front of German tanks, their own tanks are simply paper paste!

"Forward, forward!" At this time, brigade commander George was still giving orders to his subordinates. He was also very surprised to see his tanks destroyed. However, at the same time, he also knew that now they had no choice but to continue the attack.

If they retreat at this time, their morale will collapse. Moreover, what the Germans are best at is pursuit. When the Germans chase them for dozens of kilometers, their whole armored brigade will become scrap iron.

Only now, when they rush up and get close to within 500 meters, can they have hope!

The covenant tank is awesome enough, it's fast and fast.

An allied tank turned sharply and avoided the incoming shell. It was a close call. At this time, the tank hands in the tank were scared in a cold sweat.

They are still moving forward. The Germans have given Britain too much humiliation. Now they want to use bloody war to recover this humiliation!

"Attention, reverse gear, tactic 23." Here, Meyer issued a new order.

With his command, the whole tank company's chariots stopped again. After a shot, they began to shift into reverse gear and slowly backward.

Seeing the German tanks retreating, the British armored soldiers here were jubilant.

Go, go!

A famous tank commander, issued a cheer, their tanks, full speed forward!

"Boom!" An allied tank was destroyed.

They don't care about such losses. In war, there are no undead people. Now, the German rout is right in front of them!

"Boom!" Another tank was destroyed.

On the British side, there are fewer and fewer tanks, and George has gradually realized what in the battlefield.

The Germans are not defeated at all. They do it consciously, and this is a tactic for their tanks to fight!

Yes, a shameful tactic!

The number of German tank forces is small. At the beginning, the distance between the two sides was close to 500 meters. If the two sides continue to hedge, they will eventually approach or even scuffle.

In the scuffle, the side with a large number of tanks has an advantage. It can siege one by several vehicles. Even if it can't break through their armor and hit a load wheel from the side, it can make their tanks lie down.

In this case, the Germans cunningly chose to retreat and open the distance. At the same time, they used their accurate shooting to constantly consume their own tanks!

At the beginning, the German tank guns opened fire, just school fire. Now, their firepower is much more accurate, especially those tanks that look strange behind. The tank guns are constantly firing and killing their own tanks!

Our own casualties are increasing, which is the intention of the other party!

When the number of tanks on your side is consumed to a certain extent, the other side will turn to counterattack. At that time, you will be defeated.

How can these damn Germans have so many routines?
