Steel Soviet Union

As an excellent tank that overwhelmed the German armored forces in terms of equipment quality in the early days of the Soviet-German War, the 1941 T3476 medium tank in Lin Jie's hands at the moment is equipped with the F34 2x caliber 2mm tank gun. , undoubtedly far superior to the German tanks rumbling across the way in terms of firepower and armor penetration.

The center point of the gun scope's field of view was roughly adjusted according to the distance between the gun scope and the shooting target. With one person taking care of the three responsibilities of the gunner, commander and loader, he was so busy that he barely touched his feet. Lin Jie, who was on the ground, had no idea how he had learned and mastered these professional armor skills.

Lin Jie, who only wanted to survive this battle, was convinced that he had pointed the muzzle of the gun at the target, and then, driven by instinct, he instantly raised his foot and stepped on the firing pedal of the main gun.

The BR-350B 76mm hood armor-piercing grenade, which had already been pushed into the chamber, was immediately ignited by the sudden impact of the firing pin in the breech block. The muzzle velocity of the BR-350B hood was as high as 655 meters per second. The armor-piercing grenade rushed straight towards the German Type IV C tank, which was pointed directly at the muzzle, like an arrow from a string.

It was expected but also a bit surprising.

The German Type IV C tank, which was stationary at a distance of just over 500 meters because it stopped and opened fire to attack Lin Jie's car, had no time to dodge the sudden incoming shells. As expected, it was killed by Lin Jie's hands. The fired shell accurately hit the frontal armor on the front of the car body.

The 30 mm thick rolled steel armor on the front of the early Type IV C tank body could not withstand the attack from the T3476 medium tank at all. It was still able to penetrate the 85 mm vertical steel armor at a distance of 500 meters. The BR-350B hooded armor-piercing grenade is naturally capable of dealing with the mere 30mm armor defense of the Type IV tank C.

The Germans have been adhering to the vertical armor design since the beginning of the war, which has given the T3476 tank a more perfect space to display its firepower.

It was as easy as piercing a red-hot razor into a cream cake.

This 76 mm full-caliber armor-piercing projectile from Lin Jie left a fist-sized hole in the upper armor of the front of the No. 4 tank body and then moved forward. The equivalent of 108 grams of TNT contained in the warhead of the tank exploded. The equivalent warhead charge then detonated instantly in the internal space of the No. 4 tank body under the action of the armor-piercing delay fuse.

boom--

Like champagne that was opened directly with a corkscrew after being violently shaken, the German Panzer IV tank, which was detonated by the BR-350B hood armor-piercing grenade inside the vehicle body space, could not withstand such power at all, and was instantly destroyed by this An explosion with the equivalent of one hundred grams of TNT detonated dozens of 75mm artillery shells located on the chassis of the vehicle body, resulting in a violent tank explosion.

There was an explosion and flames shot into the sky.

A total of five German tank crew members who were in combat mode inside the Panzer IV tank had no time to react or escape due to the rush of time. In the end, they could only struggle, howl, and be roasted to death amidst the flames of exploding shells and burning gasoline in the tank. of coke.

Looking at the German Panzer IV tank that exploded due to a shell fired by himself and then burst into flames, the German tank commander struggled in the flames and finally had no time to escape and was half-hanging outside the turret covered in flames. The shrouded corpse was so dazzling and eye-catching to Lin Jie.

Everything he did in just ten seconds took the lives of five people at once, but if he didn't do this, the person who died would definitely be himself.

War is never about who is right or wrong, it is only about who can stand to the end with a smile and usher in the final victory.

Through the observation windows in their respective positions, they witnessed Lin Jie's "combat achievements" after working alone. The driver and electromechanical personnel who were in disbelief at the scene immediately let out a burst of noise in the chassis of the car. Exclaimed with excitement.

"Oh my God, Comrade Lieutenant, you hit him! Look at those German bastards, they are burning! Haha!"

"The great Red Army is invincible! Go home and eat shit, you crispy invaders!"

Listening to the cheers ringing in the narrow and airtight space of the T3476 medium tank, Lin Jie, who was already sweating profusely under the stimulation of a series of busy movements and tense environment, did not dare to make any move. He was negligent and immediately issued orders to his two subordinates.

"Seryozha, start taking us away from here, keep moving forward at a high speed! Nikolai, come up and help me load the shells! We have to continue attacking these Germans, hurry!"

"Yes, Comrade Lieutenant, I'm coming right away!"

After receiving Lin Jie's order, he immediately left the electromechanical position at the front of the chassis with difficulty, and finally crawled to the loader's position in the turret, then stretched out his hand to load the vehicle. The body of Captain Brasovsky, the former commander and gunner, was transferred to the chassis of the vehicle for temporary placement.

This series of actions sounds light and simple, but it is extremely difficult for the already tall Slavs. The T34 tank uses a large area of ​​​​inclined armor to enhance the defense of the entire vehicle, at the expense of a considerable amount of body. The internal space was too difficult for Nikolai, the electromechanical engineer who had to complete Lin Jie's orders.

Sweating profusely, he climbed up to the loader's position where Lin Jie was supposed to be. Nikolai took out an armor-piercing bomb from the chassis and held it in his arms. Then he started under Lin Jie's order. Loading cannonballs with that slightly unfamiliar action.

"Two o'clock direction, about 350 meters away, armor-piercing rounds are ready!"

"One armor-piercing bullet, loading completed!"

With the help of the turret's electric steering gear, the adjustment wheel was cranked by hand, and the gunner's wide-angle periscope provided a fairly good observation field of view to rotate the turret at the fastest speed and aim the muzzle at the next target.

Lin Jie, who had unknowingly fully integrated into the battle, then moved his perspective back to the sight of the gun scope next to the gun breech, and began to make the final barrel pitch and direction adjustments before firing.

After a simple visual range measurement, he locked the target through rough empirical judgment. Without any time to hesitate, Lin Jie immediately raised his foot and stepped on the main gun's firing pedal. Another armor-piercing grenade was ready to be fired in the barrel. Then it was shot towards the target with a burst of fire from the muzzle.

When another German Panzer III tank traveling with him was shot through the turret armor by Lin Jie, and the three surviving crew members immediately abandoned the vehicle to escape, a loud shout came from the rear of Lin Jie's car. Immediately afterwards, it reached the ears of everyone in the crew.

"For Mother Soviet, destroy these German devils! Davarich, Ulla!"
