For this situation, the Spanish anti-government armed soldiers did not understand that many of them had never seen tanks before, even if they had seen them, they were equipped with old-fashioned "Stone 1" and "Stone 2" tanks by Spanish government forces or a few American and Italian tanks. These tanks were obviously comparable to the German-made deleted tanks in terms of firepower and defense, and at the same time, they made the anti-government armed commanders unable to deal with them again and again. However, it is true that the anti-government armed forces can choose weapons from another angle.
As time goes by, the street guns keep coming out, but most of them are like rifles warming up at the back climax. Generally, it takes a long time for Conrad to finally see from his observation port that a gun barrel appears at the corner at the end of the street, followed by a tank body painted yellow and green, and a gray crawler hits a turret with the same color as the body.
"Fire!"
With Conrad’s order, the tank that hasn’t finished "showing up" has already been included in the cross circle of the sight. Abel’s amazing recoil and terrible roar don’t show the great power of this millimeter gun. Only one second later, the shell accurately hit the target more than oo meters away.
This is Conrad’s first real prey after he transferred to Tiger 1, and in the opinion of gunner Abel, this shooting is not only another proof of the terrible power of the millimeter gun, but also sending a group of poor tank men to hell. He looked at the target coldly through the sight and watched that the gun barrel was blown up with the ugly turret. No one survived in such a fierce explosion.
After the smoke dispersed, there was a mass of black and still burning ruins at the end of the street. Only then did Conrad say a word in his mouth.
"The American m1919 Hamilton medium tank weighs 1 ton and is equipped with a 40-fold front armor with a 47-mm gun and a 35-mm maximum highway time of 40 kilometers!"
"vulnerable!"
Eber evaluation is very simple.
Twilight Chapter 10 Variables
In the early spring, everything is revived in Europe. Everywhere you look, there are green grass and flowers, especially the Iberian Peninsula, which is adjacent to the Mediterranean Sea. It is sunny and the climate is warm, but the people here are unhappy because their country is in the most chaotic and cruel war period. Every Spaniard can really stay out of it, whether he sympathizes with the royal family, inclines to the revolution or remains at a loss.
Compared with the northern European countries, although they have not yet got rid of the cold in winter, the situation there has not been calm for many years, but behind this calm, undercurrents are surging in places that people can’t see.
Murmansk, Russia
Late at night, there is not a worker in the dock around the port. Occasionally, a small group of soldiers with long rifles can be seen passing by. In the silent harbor, cargo ships and warships are quietly parked in their berths, and only those petite patrol ships are still doing their duty to patrol their jurisdiction.
Murmansk, the largest military port and commercial port along the Arctic Ocean, has always been the most important port in northern Russia because of its year-round non-freezing geographical condition. Ships entering and leaving the port have to go through the strategic location of the strait traffic controlled by other countries. Looking around, the ports of the Black Sea in the territory of Soviet Russia are still trapped in the Da Daniil Strait, which is a fatal geographical factor. Ships entering and leaving the ports along the Baltic Sea also have to go through the tight control of foreign forces, and the return of sea cucumbers is still far away. This makes Murmansk’s military significance even more important.
For this situation, those countries that are wary or hostile to the Soviet Union and Russia attach equal importance to it and do everything possible to strengthen it. The most prominent representative of Finland signed the Soviet Union and Germany in 1992. The Finnish people pushed their frontier outpost to a place 12 kilometers away from Murmansk. A 20 mm heavy howitzer made by Krupp in Germany or a 365 mm howitzer made by Skoda Arsenal in Bohemia could deter the whole Murmansk port from that position. Although the Finns did not deploy this terrible weapon on their border, it made the Russians feel uneasy. Reliable information showed that the Finnish Sixth Army did secretly introduce six such long-range heavy guns from Germany, and the bombers taking off from the Finnish border could fly to Murmansk before the Russian fighters reacted.
This has also been attributed by Soviet military strategists to the Murmansk pain from the north, because no one can tell how many foreign intelligence personnel are active in the surrounding areas of Murmansk every day.
When the breath of the night gradually dissipated and Lebanon was coming, people thought it would be another quiet night, but at this time, a cargo ship with a displacement of about 7,000 tons quietly left its berth and headed for the port channel. It didn’t whistle or wave flowers to see people off. It looked like a cat looking for prey and a dancer moving on tiptoe. At this time, the sea view was still very blurred, but the navigation tower of the port didn’t release the pilot beam, so it quietly disappeared into the depths of the sea before people woke up from sleep.
※※※※※※※※
A beam of fresh sunshine shone through the observation hole into the cold tank department, just shining on Conrad’s face. He opened his eyes alert and seemed calm except for his familiar snoring.
He felt that his limbs were all right except for some soreness. He turned his head and looked at him. Abel’s gunner was staring at the periscope seriously.
"The situation is ok!"
Conrad rubbed his eyes and moved his waist and legs in a small range without disturbing others.
Abel turned his head and handed Conrad through his eyes, which was a signal that everything was all right.
The night just passed was noisy and bloody, and the fighting was even fiercer than during the day. The attackers tried to break through this line of defense with the help of the cover of night. They pushed forward in desperation and moved wave after wave. The defenders blocked the streets of Ma Keqin, mg17, The explosive sound of Mao Se rifle continuously stimulates people’s eardrums. Although the other side didn’t get any old or new tanks from anywhere, Conrad’s motorcade encountered unprecedented severe challenges-from midnight to 4 am when the attack ended, no less than 10 grenades, three bundles of grenades or explosives exploded very close to the Tiger 1. After the battle, Conrad was quite worried about asking the driver to start the tank and conducted some basic action tests. Fortunately, Tiger 1 did not appear other abnormal conditions except the headlight method, which greatly made Conrad and his motorcade members.
"It’s your turn to rest!"
After that, Conrad looked around the street in downtown Madrid through the captain’s periscope. The American m1919 Hamilton medium-sized tank was destroyed yesterday afternoon, and the fire was still on the original ground. There were only a pair of black debris left, and half of the big signboard outside a three-story building could vaguely recognize the word "hotel", but there was no good window on the street side, and several blue curtains fluttered in the window. From there, further on, there are huge craters and bullet holes on the road surface of the main battlefield. These exceptions are all Tiger 1, the powerful millimeter main cannon, and the outer walls of houses on both sides of the street are full of bullet holes of different sizes. There are also two buildings that were directly shelled and collapsed by Tiger 1.
After a night of fighting, the revolutionary’s blood finally flowed to the foot of the tiger mountain, and Conrad, the commander of this violent machine, quietly changed his mind. He hit the captain’s hatch above his head and let the golden sun shine quietly on his tiny roll of gold. Then he took a deep breath, took out his kettle and poured cold water on his face. Then he took out a piece of kraft paper from his canvas bag, wrapped a square bread and tore a small piece of bread into his mouth while observing the street ahead.
It wasn’t long before there was a roar in the middle of the day. Conrad looked up as the sound got closer and closer. He finally saw a yellow painted biplane flying overhead. At this moment, he almost couldn’t help jumping up from his position because it was the first plane he saw yesterday, and from the model, it should be designed and manufactured by Italy. The purchase and equipment of this kind of reconnaissance/bomber is long and relatively cheap. The main military aircraft are Italy. Spain and Portugal and other southern European countries were equipped with 40 such planes when the war broke out. They usually come for reconnaissance and patrol, and if necessary, they can bomb the ground with a 250 kg bomb, which can be said to be a multi-way fighter for small and medium-sized countries!
"Abel! April! You won’t believe what I just saw! " Conrad pushed Abel beside him when he had just slept for a while.
"Spanish plane?" In confusion, Abel seems to have heard the movement just now.
"That’s right! It seems that we can finally get Chinese support today! "
Hearing Conrad’s words, not only Abelian, but also the three of them woke up together.
"Our plane? Is it our plane? "
Hahn seems to have misunderstood Conrad’s last sentence, and Conrad immediately corrected it seriously.
"To be exact, our Spanish allies should be Italian-made Markey 3o reconnaissance planes in appearance!"
Hahn has an epiphany expression, but judging from his expression, this excellent German loader doesn’t really believe in Chinese power except the German air force.
"Loisel, contact the battalion headquarters-we urgently need information on the enemy’s movements!"
"Good!"
Just waking up, the crew didn’t take a sip of water first, so he immediately got busy with headphones on the car platform.
"6! 6 places! Here is G Island, here is G Island … But we just saw a Spanish plane flying by … White … "
While Louis was in contact with Ji, Conrad pulled out a photo from his pocket, which was a bust of his fiancee. The beautiful golden girl smiled so charming that Conrad’s heart was filled with thoughts at once. He couldn’t wait to put his wings back to his lover at once, no matter what war or not.
"Lieutenant! Lieutenant! "
The crew shouted to pull the young officer who was in lovesickness back to reality.
"What did the battalion command say?"
"Er, the reconnaissance plane now has a large number of rebels outside Madrid, and there seem to be tanks and armored vehicles inside! In addition … They said that it was not a Spanish plane that flew over our heads just now, but was sent by the Italian government! "
"Italian plane?"
Conrad doesn’t know what to say at the moment. Obviously, what is behind this is beyond the understanding of a junior officer like him. In fact, it is very satisfying for Conrad and his soldiers to be able to help the battlefield situation whether it is a Spanish plane or an Italian plane or even a French plane.
The appearance of an Italian reconnaissance plane did not disrupt the Spanish anti-government armed forces’ attack plan. Shortly after breakfast, they attacked again. This time, they obviously learned the lesson from the previous day. Instead of pushing the howitzer directly into the street, they deployed it behind the building, so that the trajectory was low. German tank guns attacked them, but their shells could bombard the other barricade and the evil German tank over the building in front.
The vibration of shells falling one after another is stronger than the other for the tank crew, but what worries Conrad more is whether the relatively weak armor on the top of his tank can resist the impact of a large-angle Grenade. If there are enough armored vehicles and infantry around him, he will definitely choose to counterattack and destroy the cannons hidden behind the building. However, last night, he was ordered to come to reinforce the Turkish infantry battalion. The number of defenders here is still much less than that of the attacker Naikonrad Tiger 1. After moving backwards for less than half a block, he heard a cry from the opposite side, and the other side took advantage of the opportunity to charge.
"Stop reversing!"
Quite a few hundred allied soldiers Conrad gritted their teeth in the buildings on both sides of the street to return to the street.
"Lieutenant!"
Abel stared at Conrad with sincerity in his eyes.
"Don’t just give up?" Conrad was filled with reluctance.
"Stop and fire on the spot!" Then Abel kicked Hahn and motioned for him to load the shells.
"There are armor-piercing bullets!"
Hahn shouted that although the Spanish troops in charge of logistics sent a car full of ammunition last night, there was no shell shadow in it. The headquarters explained that shells were given priority to those tanks with the most urgent situation, and promised to send a base shell as far as possible before the day, but it has not been fulfilled yet.
"Pack!" Abel’s answer is still simple, although he knows very well that the two kinds of shells have completely different paths.
After the boom, the street corner was suddenly dusty, but not many Spaniards fell because of it.
"Three quick shots!"
