Chapter 1879: Deathly Stranglehold (Part 1)

The No. 214 King Tiger, which was shot through the front armor of the car body, was very unlucky, but to a certain extent, it was also lucky.

At least this armor-piercing bullet that penetrated the soul and penetrated the armor was not an armor-piercing bullet with a charge. Although three people in the turret combat room were injured, two seriously and one lightly, at least they were still alive without losing their lives, even if it was only temporary.

The escape hatch at the back of the King Tiger's turret was opened from the inside out. The three German armored soldiers, all of whom had different jobs, were very kind and loyal. They helped the minor injuries and the serious injuries and climbed out of the turret one by one. .

When the two people on the front and passenger seats at the front of the vehicle saw that something was wrong, they smeared the soles of their feet and ran away decisively. The bottom escape hatch in the center of the chassis of the vehicle was quickly opened, and the two people got out from under the tank one after another. Escaped.

One of the five King Tigers was hitched, and now there are only four left.

The gun mantlet at the base of the gun was hit by a detached King Tiger, but the situation was not bad. The core armor-piercing body could not penetrate such a thick mantlet root, let alone damage the front of the turret behind the gun mantlet. The entire armor plate was stuck like a toy javelin stuck on the target, unable to move. It did not cause any substantial damage to the King Tiger.

After confirming that the vehicle could continue to fight and had not been truly penetrated, the unfortunate King Tiger began to move again, continuing to turn the turret and drive the muzzle just like the other King Tigers around it.

The two IS6s were paralyzed to the ground and unable to move. Although they were still resisting, at least the threat level had been reduced to a sub-level level. More importantly, the seven intact IS6 heavy tanks that could still move were still there.

"Bolt, stop those remaining Russians! They are targeting us!!!"

"What!?"

The shouts from his comrades on the radio channel drew Bolt's attention back to the periscope, who had just moved away from his sight and was debugging the commander's radio station in the turret.

It was as if the sight of a King Tiger having its armor penetrated on the spot and its crew abandoning the vehicle gave these Russians the confidence to complete the final confirmation before effectively firing at the enemy.

The remaining seven intact IS6 heavy tanks have all been parked now, and the turrets undergoing final fine-tuning and correction all illustrate what these Russians are planning to do.

There is no need to continue to rush forward, the real moment to take action is now.

As the commander of the team, Bolt certainly knew that a King Tiger under his command had been overturned on the spot. Although it was not clear whether this was an accident or a coincidence, or whether it was due to some new power-enhancing improvements used by the Russians, in short it could What is confirmed is that the Russians can indeed destroy the King Tiger head-on at the current distance.

These seven movable vehicles plus the two that could not move, Bolt soon realized that he was about to face fierce fire from nine enemy vehicles that could penetrate his own armor, and that chilling tremor suddenly came over him. In his mind, the black hole visible to the naked eye in the periscope, the muzzle of the huge cannon, seemed to be about to swallow up lives in the next second.

"Damn it, it's over now!"

"Aimed!"

"Fire!"

boom--

The seven IS6 heavy tanks that parked one after another opened fire almost at once, taking the first step before the four capable King Tigers on the opposite side opened fire again.

The seven armor-piercing bullets that roared towards his face were all discarding sabots, without exception. Bolt, who knew nothing about this, had no time to think or react in such a short period of time. He only knew what was coming next. Things must be bad.

Ding-ding——

Boom——

boom--

It was positioned further forward than the two crippled IS6s, which resulted in better accuracy and higher penetration. The salvo attack under Kirill's order was finally The effect was reaped.

The armor on the right side of the front face of the turret was instantly penetrated, creating a hole the size of a fist. The gunner and commander, who were sitting in parallel on the trajectory of the ballistic trajectory, died instantly. Even though it is a sub-caliber discarding sabot armor-piercing projectile, it is also a discarding sabot armor-piercing projectile shot by a 122-gun cannon. The cross-sectional size of the armor-piercing body of the bullet core is still a full circle larger than that of ordinary small-caliber artillery shells.

Two German armored soldiers, who did not react to the pain until they died, and did not even know how they died, were shot in the head one after another by the armor-piercing body of the bullet core. This kind of headshot is not the effect caused by a bullet fired from a small weapon, but a headshot that literally cuts off the root of your neck and even the flesh on your shoulders.

All the soft and hard tissue parts of the human body above the collarbone completely disappeared, leaving only a large mass of bloody and blurred tissue splattered on the cold turret bulkhead beside it.

However, the real destruction and death have just begun, and it is undoubtedly too early to say it is over.

The core armor-piercing body that killed two German armored soldiers continued to advance, and almost instantly hit the first ready-to-fire ammunition rack at the back of the King Tiger turret.

Failure of ammunition to explode is the vast majority of situations that occur after sabot-piercing sabots penetrate armor, but this does not mean that tanks penetrated by this thing have no chance of ammunition explosion.

The high temperature and heat caused by the instantaneous violent impact and friction that penetrated the upper armor still remained on the front end of the armor-piercing body of the bullet core that had become deformed.

The moment the metal jacket of the propellant barrel was torn off, the propellant contained inside the barrel was instantly ignited, emitting a dazzling flash of light.

The entire ammunition rack exploded in a chain reaction in just a moment, and the violent explosion, which was so fast that humans had no time to react, swept the entire vehicle in an instant.

The King Tiger, which was in a closed combat state, could not withstand the instantaneous and violent pressure increase in the vehicle caused by the explosion of ammunition. The huge turret, which was only buckled on the vehicle body instead of being rigidly connected, took off on the spot, vertically ascending to the sky like a rocket, and was launched from the turret seat ring.

When the huge and hot turret, whose interior had been completely blackened, fell to the ground with a loud bang, no one knew or cared about the current situation of the five armored soldiers who were fighting in this steel body.

A King Tiger had its ammunition exploded, but this did not mean that it was the only King Tiger destroyed.

Two King Tigers were penetrated by armor and one King Tiger's ammunition exploded. Bolt, who originally had four remaining King Tigers that could fight King Tigers, was shocked to find out.

In just two or three seconds, he who was commanding and giving orders just now became the last hope, the only remaining lonely man.

What on earth did those Russians do? Didn't past combat experience and intelligence say that the Russian heavy tanks could only penetrate the weak area of ​​the turret armor from the front at extremely close range? If that was true, then what the hell was this shitty situation! ?
