In history, Sherman tanks have numerous modifications. The later models have developed very powerful, but the early models are still a residue.
Americans are very proud and feel that their equipment is very good, but now, when applied to the battlefield, they can find how chicken ribs they are.
The only victory today was from the side. When they hit the front of the Panther tank, they could see that they hit several in a row. As a result, they just carried it down!
They can't accept this result.
"American tank guns are not as good as our 17 pound guns at all. If only our 17 pound guns could be installed on Sherman tanks." One side, another general said.
If the German tank is the enemy, it is definitely a 17 pound gun. Unfortunately, with the defeat of the mainland, it is difficult to see this gun.
"By the way, in today's daytime battle, the M5 anti tank gun of the United States successfully destroyed the Panther 3 tank, and it was destroyed from the front!" Another person suddenly remembered something. This was the first time that his own anti tank gun destroyed the other party's tank from the front!
Therefore, since there is no 17 pound gun, we can simply install the M5 anti tank gun and use it temporarily.
Although the caliber of the two guns is the same, both of which are 76.2mm, in terms of effect, the M5 gun is definitely more powerful! Just look at the length.
"Then, can we put the M5 gun on the tank?" Montgomery asked.
Hearing his question, everyone looked at each other. It's not so easy. Look at the current Sherman tank, the gun barrel on it is quite short, while the M5 anti tank gun is too long, and the medicine room is different, so it's not so easy to install it.
Historically, the British installed their 17 pound anti tank gun on the tank and still had to reduce the firing cartridge to complete the integration. As a result, the power of this gun was less than that of the towed anti tank gun.
"We have several local technical experts who can have a try." A deputy said.
With George VI raising the flag in Egypt, some people who do not want to associate with Edward VIII are still trying their best to come to Egypt. Today, several experts from the Royal ordnance institute came.
Montgomery nodded: "well, let them try. Even if they dismantle the turret and use only Sherman's chassis, we should complete the modification as soon as possible. We need weapons that can completely restrain German tanks."
What can't? I'm afraid I can't think of it. If I can't do it, I'll keep Sherman's chassis. It's made into a convertible. I can definitely install the M5 anti tank gun!
If Sherman is outstanding, I'm afraid the performance of the chassis is still good. Unfortunately, it's too high!
Just now, a general hurried in with a telegram: "no, the Germans attacked our mitria mountains at night. The Indian division there is in danger of collapse at any time!"
It is not easy to fight at night, and identification between ourselves and the enemy will become a problem. When the Germans want to attack, they usually use armored forces. Therefore, they rarely have the practice of sneak attack at night.
Tonight, there was an accident.
The southern region, which has always believed that it will become the role of playing soy sauce, continues to usher in the battle!
Montgomery stood up suddenly, walked to the sand table and said hurriedly, "is it the night attack of German armored forces?"
"No, it's infantry. It's the Italians who sneaked on us."
Is it infantry or Italians! Hearing this, Montgomery relaxed: "let the South African division behind support them!"
The fighting power of the Italians has always been obvious to all. They must have taken the wrong medicine tonight and took the initiative to attack. It must be because of the defeat during the day and want to find face at night. It's good. Let them touch the wall again!
Montgomery really didn't care much. He just thought it was a night harassment. He didn't know. Soon, he would be annoyed by his negligence.
Compared with his opponents, Rommel is still relatively relaxed at this time.
The light of the headquarters was still on, and they listened to the report from the front line.
"As a pioneer, the Italian Infantry Division has rushed to the British position and is engaged in hand to hand combat with the British army."
Marshal graziani was stunned by the news. How is this possible? Hand to hand?
You know, it's not clear how strong your troops are. In short, there will be no hand to hand combat. The situation of blood splashing on the spot is not in line with the needs of Italian gentlemen.
"Order the rest of the infantry divisions to press up!" Rommel said, "tonight, we must take the mitria mountains! If you can't get it, don't come back! "
Tanks are not omnipotent. In the mountains, tanks are greatly limited, especially in the mitria mountains, where the mountains on both sides are steep and only the middle road can pass. If the tank troops pass rashly, they will suffer heavy casualties.
Rommel had long thought about how to attack with infantry. Now, he happens to use Italian infantry.
"Our team, how are the casualties?" Asked marshal graziani, pressing on his complicated thoughts.
The front line is flowing with the blood of Italian soldiers!
"Casualties are not clear, marshal."
Only after the battle is over and the soldiers return can the casualties be counted. Now it is impossible to know, especially at night.
Marshal graziani relaxed a little. As long as the casualties exceeded 10%, the Italian division was in danger of collapse. Now, since it was still fighting hand to hand on the front line, the casualties must be minimal.
He can only comfort himself in this way. At this time, he doesn't know that the casualty rate of the death squads in the front has been as high as 30%. Many soldiers who are still fighting have even hung the lottery, but they still fight very hard!
Donatello reached out to get the magazine from his back, and found that his back was empty!
Before departure, each person was equipped with eight magazines, four on one side behind him, plus the original gun, a total of nine, 32 rounds each, that is, he consumed nearly 300 rounds of bullets that night!
As for the enemies killed, he didn't calculate them carefully, because he couldn't count them at the back, but at least there were more than a dozen.
Now, there are no bullets!
What should I do?
Of course, you can't be idle. Quickly touch other weapons from the ground!
He bent down and wanted to take the rifle held by a corpse on the ground and hang a bayonet. It must be more enjoyable to kill!
However, just when he wanted to pick it up, he suddenly found that the other party held it tightly without moving it!
"Boom!" Not far away, a grenade exploded. In the light, he saw the bloody Indian soldier lying on the ground. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and showed his white teeth.
For a moment, Donatello understood that this guy, like himself before, pretended to be dead when things were bad! But now, in each other's eyes, there is murderous spirit!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
