Chapter 245 Anti-tank team

Generally speaking, Colonel Smith is right... because there are only a few types of equipment that can deal with tanks, aircraft, tanks, and anti-tank guns.

Of course, in addition to this, there are anti-tank grenades, explosive packs, etc.

However, if you want to use anti-tank grenades and explosive packs to blow up the tank, you will inevitably have to suffer huge casualties under the firepower of the British army, which is exactly what the German army does not have.

So Colonel Smith thought that the battle was almost certain, and the Germans would soon raise their hands under the muzzle of British tanks.

A row of shells roared, and the only anti-tanks of the German paratroopers were immediately blown into pieces and broken down into parts.

Paratroopers equipped with anti-tank guns are actually a waste of money...

It doesn't work without equipment. It is a weapon to strike enemy tanks at a long range.

Equipment, it has problems such as heavy weight and difficulty moving, which seriously affects paratrooper logistics.

Even the German army had to make a choice between PAK36 and PAK38.

If you have no doubt about firepower and depth of penetration, you should choose PAK38, but the total weight of PAK38 is more than 800 kilograms. This weight is not something that a few soldiers can push and run around. The paratroopers do not have cars tow, so the PAK38 must be decomposed and maneuvered, and then temporarily assembled and put into battle when it is to be used.

There is almost no chance on the battlefield. Just like now, the German PAK38s were bombed into the sky before they could play a role.

This greatly increased the morale of the British soldiers surrounded by two wings... The German anti-tank gun was blown up, which almost meant that the British army with tanks was invincible, so they followed the tanks with full confidence and advanced step by step towards the German army.

"Iron Fist!" Qin Chuan ordered loudly.

Werner responded and rushed forward with several German troops.

This is an anti-tank team formed by the German army based on previous training experience... Each anti-tank team consists of three people, one team leader holds an "iron fist" in hand and two team members, each carrying an "iron fist" for the team leader to use, and at the same time holds a submachine gun and carries five grenades to provide cover for the team leader.

Of course, the anti-tank team will not rush straight towards the tank, as that is almost no different from seeking death... If you want to get close to the tank, you actually have a safer way, hide in the crater and wait for the tank to drive up.

At this time, you should pay attention to the fire cover of the anti-tank team, because the British army may have found the anti-tank team hiding in the bomb crater and suppressing them.

However, this was not a difficult task for the German army. Cooperation was also the strengths of the German army.

The 50MM mortars fired one after another and shot the British army hiding behind the tanks, and the sniper rifle in Qin Chuan also fired bullets, making the British army dare not stick their heads out and shoot.

Of course, some of this is also the British army believed that there was no need to fight with the German army for a long time... As long as we follow the tanks in this way, the collapse of the German defense line will only happen sooner or later.

But things were not as simple as the British army thought, because the German army had equipped an anti-tank weapon... "Iron Fist".

With a "bang", Qin Chuan knocked a British army to the ground.

The British army was a 2-inch mortar gunner. He was trying to shoot the shells into the crater where Werner was hiding, but before he could fire a shell, the bullets fired by Qin Chuan's rifle made him unable to complete the mission again.

Seeing that the distance was almost the same, Qin Chuan ordered: "Send a signal!"

Keller, who was lying next to Qin Chuan, immediately blew the whistle biting in his mouth... This was telling Werner that the enemy tank had entered his range of 30 meters.

Almost at the same time, machine guns and 50MM mortars attacked British tanks again... Of course, they could not pose a threat to the "Matilda" tanks, and these firepowers only provide fire cover for the anti-tank team.

Then, Werner took advantage of this time and stood up suddenly with his "iron fist" and aimed at it and pressed down on several launches.

With a "expanding" sound, the "Iron Fist" accurately hit the front armor of the tank and a blue smoke came out... This blue smoke could be described as insignificant compared to the smoke and dust around it, so that the German soldiers didn't believe how much damage it could cause to the tank.

But the tank slowly stopped after advancing for a distance, and then a wisp of black smoke emerged from the rear and caught fire soon... It was obvious that the metal jet ignited something inside after breaking through the tank armor and then ignited the tank engine.

The German soldiers couldn't help but cheer. This was the first time that the German army used an "iron fist" to destroy enemy tanks, which proved that the "iron fist" was effective.

The British soldiers were a little puzzled. They didn't see clearly what destroyed the tank. Many people even thought it was a failure of "Matilda"... The engine was overheated and caught fire is not uncommon in "Matilda" tanks.

So the British army continued to advance towards the German army under the cover of tanks, completely ignoring the "warning" just now.

One thing that is certain is that "Matilda" is a good target for "Iron Fist", because its progress is very slow, like a snail crawling slowly with a heavy shell on its back... This gives "Iron Fist" more chances to destroy it.

Otherwise, if it is the "General Grant" type with a speed of more than 40 kilometers per hour or even the "Stuart" tank with a speed of more than 50 kilometers per hour... the range of 30 meters of the "Iron Fist" has already been out of range before it can be aimed quickly.

So, a "boom" explosion sounded, and the "Matilda" tanks stopped one after another, and even one of them was detonated from the inside by a metal jet. With a loud bang, the entire tank turned into a ball of fire, and the British infantry following behind were also killed and injured.

Only then did the British army realize that the situation was not good, but they did not think that this would happen and did not know how to deal with it. So they hoped to break through quickly with the few remaining tanks...

But this attempt was quickly shattered by the "iron fist".

The German paratroopers were equipped with two hundred "iron fists", which were enough to stop the attack of dozens of "Matilda" tanks, while the total number of British tanks was only thirteen, and these tanks were divided into two parts.

"What's going on!" Colonel Smith asked angrily when he saw the British tanks stop, "Why don't they advance?"

Colonel Smith didn't know that the tanks had been blown up, after all, many of the destroyed tanks could not see any abnormalities from the outside.

"Colin!" At this time, the communications soldier reported: "Major John reported that all our tanks were destroyed!"

"What? This is impossible!" said Colonel Smith. "What did they use to destroy our tanks?!"
