Chapter 110 Tank melee combat
Colonel Eberhard's choice was correct. It was obviously unrealistic to retreat under such circumstances. The distance between the enemy and our troops was too close, less than a hundred meters.
Once the Soviet army discovers their intention to retreat, they will definitely charge.
Although the speed of the Soviet T26 is not fast... 30 kilometers per hour, it only takes 12 seconds to go 100 meters at full speed.
In 12 seconds, before the German tank "No. 3" had time to turn around, the enemy tank had already driven to the front. At that time, it would not only be a problem of being surrounded, but the front would be crushed by the enemy.
Continuing to stay in place and fight the enemy is obviously not good, because it means waiting to be surrounded by the enemy.
So, if there is a way to survive, it is positive, and only by killing a **** way can there be a chance of survival.
So, the tragic tank hand-to-hand combat started at that moment.
Both sides had no time to fire their guns, and the two steel lines of defense slammed into each other fiercely.
There was a sound of steel colliding, and the T26 tank in front of Shulka was knocked back a certain distance.
Although there is not much damage on the surface of the tank, at least it looks like this from the rear. But Shulka can understand the situation of the tank crew in the tank... The space in the tank cabin is narrow, and the crew is almost wrapped in steel and various joysticks to drive the tank. If you are careful, you may be hit badly, not to mention the tanks colliding at this time.
There is a reason why the Germans dared to do this, because for a collision, the "No. 3" tank, which is almost twice as heavy as the T26, is clearly superior, not to mention that its front armor is much thicker than the T16.
So, after a while, T26 was pushed back by the "No. 3" tank.
"Think of a way!" The follower on the rear armor of the tank shouted: "We are about to be crushed by it!"
After the war, Shulka knew that there was indeed such a situation: the body of the "No. 3" tank was higher than that of the T26. Coupled with the factors of weight and muddy roads, there were several
"No. 3" actually climbed up along the front armor of the T26 in a "clack-clack" and then pressed it hard under the tracks.
Needless to say, the tank crew inside, most of them were crushed into meat.
But what is surprising is that one person survived... He was lucky to roll into a deformed cavity and was safe, but outsiders could not rescue him, because all the exits were deformed and stuck, and the rescuers had to separate For a period of time, food and water were fed to him through the crevice, and he was not freed until a few days later.
T26 continued to be pushed back, and the follower was so frightened that he dropped his phone and jumped off the armor.
Several soldiers wanted to go around from the side, but they were quickly knocked down by the bullets from the opposite side... The German infantry also followed behind the "No. 3" tank, and they covered the flank of the tank.
Going on like this is obviously not an option. The T26 will definitely lose in this kind of struggle. The Soviet infantry can only follow the T26 to retreat step by step, while the friendly tanks and infantry are following behind... If they continue to be pushed back, it will be very difficult. It could have huddled the Soviet army and plunged it into chaos.
And once the Soviet army fell into crowded chaos, it was time for the German army to start a massacre.
"Grenade!" Shulka shouted.
The soldiers who were at a loss heard the order and hurriedly pulled an incendiary grenade and threw it towards the opposite side of the tank... There was a burst of "booming" and the screams of the German army came from the opposite side.
But for the grenade, if the Soviet army can drop it on the German army, it means that the German army can also drop it on the Soviet army. So in the next second, several grenades with green smoke rolled over and fell from the top of the head.
Shulka hurriedly turned over and rolled into the ditch, lying low... It is actually very convenient to find where it is in rainy days, because the water flows downhill, and where there is stagnant water, it means that the terrain is low, and the more stagnant water It means the better the place to hide.
This is a little different from the consciousness of living in a peaceful society. The normal state in a peaceful society is to avoid puddles, and it becomes some kind of subconscious after a long time.
Therefore, the battlefield often has to overcome this subconsciousness or it can also be said to be a habit.
After a burst of "boom boom", several soldiers who couldn't escape fell in a pool of blood.
Shulka saw that Avmovich was also one of them, the recruit from Makarif who was transferred to Shulka's platoon through his relationship, his neck was hit by shrapnel... Shulka couldn't tell if it was the shrapnel. But still hit, he only saw blood flowing from his fingers like a fountain, he wanted to call for help but couldn't, because blood gushed out of his mouth every time he opened his mouth.
At that moment, Shulka felt guilty. After all, he believed in the "escape hero" to join this army, but Shulka let him down.
But this guilt is only a little bit, because this is a battlefield, and no one can guarantee to be alive on the battlefield, including Shulka himself.
"Grenade!" Shulka shouted.
At this time, grenades are the most useful. If you want to reduce the number of grenades thrown by the enemy, the best way is to take the first step and throw more grenades.
The Soviet army has an advantage in terms of grenades, because the Soviet army has many troops and has the upper hand.
However, this still cannot reverse the crisis of the Soviet army, because the "No. 3" tank is pushing the T26 to force the Soviet soldiers to retreat step by step.
"What to do, comrade platoon leader?" shouted the veteran, who also saw the danger of going on like this.
Shuerka didn’t answer, because he didn’t know what to do... This is a problem with the tank. He couldn’t call the soldiers to stand up against the retreating T26.
However, when Shulka saw the explosive package in the thief's hand, he suddenly had an idea.
Shuerka didn't say much, just grabbed the explosive package from the thief and threw the ignited fuse under the chassis of the T26...
"What are you doing?" The thief looked at Shulka blankly: "Comrade platoon leader, this is our tank..."
Before he finished speaking, the thief seemed to understand Shulka's purpose.
The explosive package has a ground delay for the fuse, and the "Panz" tank is pushing the T26 forward... That is to say, if the timing is about the same, the explosive package should explode under the chassis of the "Panz" tank.
"Bayonet!" Shulka ordered loudly.
Although the soldiers didn't know what happened, they still mounted bayonets on their rifles according to Shulka's order.
Shulka's calculations were correct. A few seconds later, there was a loud "boom", and a burst of flames exploded opposite the T26, and the T26 stopped retreating immediately... The tank chassis is the weakest part of the armor, so of course it cannot withstand it. The power of the dynamite pack, even if it was the Panzer III tank.
