Chapter 539: 539 stuck

 Chapter 539539 is stuck

 On the back of a horse, the vigorous knight carries a Thompson submachine gun behind him. He held the horse's belly between his legs and galloped forward along the road. There were three triangular eyes on the dark green armband.

 When he saw the advancing tank troops, he tightened the reins in his hands and raised his arms.

"Ahead of Luo Town! A large number of enemy tanks were found, with infantry garrisoned! The number is unknown!" His horse spun around on the road, and the knight who turned around shouted loudly to the commander who poked his head out of the tank turret. road.

The hatches on both sides of the No. 4 tank's turret are open at this time, allowing the gunner and loader to breathe, making the hot interior of the vehicle less hot and also increasing their field of vision.

"There is still one kilometer away from Luo Town! Get ready for battle!" The commander of the leading tank loudly reminded the commanders behind him after reporting the intelligence sent by the scouts.

The scout tucked his legs under the horse's belly and repeated the information he got from the reconnaissance loudly as he walked backwards along the convoy: "Luo Town ahead! A large number of enemy tanks were found! Infantry is stationed! The number is unknown!"

“Disperse! Arrange firepower in the hidden areas on both wings!” The infantry commanders shook their arms and ordered their troops to enter combat status.

 Following the truck behind the tank, groups of soldiers began to jump out of the cars they were in. Some soldiers took out more ammunition from the ammunition truck.

The execution artillery following the rear of the convoy began to move forward. The huge fixed open turret of the 105 mm caliber howitzer modified from the chassis of the No. 2 tank drove tremblingly off the roadbed along with the vehicle body, raising a stubby cannon in an open area. barrel.

 In order to reduce the recoil and ensure that the No. 2 tank can withstand it, the vehicle-mounted 105mm caliber howitzer reduced the bore compression and shortened the barrel, and the range was also reduced. This is all a necessary price to ensure that the artillery is installed on the vehicle body and increases the artillery's mobility.

 After a simple team formation, the infantrymen had distributed ammunition, left their luggage in the car, and with the squad and platoon as a combat unit, quickly moved forward past the tank troops who were still discussing the battle plan.

"The enemy's tanks are all gathered in Luo Town. These targets are the biggest threat to us! Their turret is equipped with a large-caliber artillery and must be eliminated first!" The platoon leader glanced at Liu Guozhu and gave a brief introduction. Check out the situation.

Then he continued to order: "Liu Guozhu and I are responsible for breaking into the village as soon as possible! Remember, don't be too eager to fight! Destroy all enemy tanks in sight! Don't give them a chance to counterattack!"

“What to do with the invisible tanks in the village?” Liu Guozhu pointed at Luo Town, which had only one town mark on the map, and asked.

 They did not have detailed maps, and although the nearby maps were fairly accurate, the accuracy was a bit too impressive.

This is already a good thing that the map-making intelligence personnel worked hard to produce. If they used the old version of the map, they might not even be able to find Luo Town.

"Then it depends on the situation! We can't judge where the enemy's tanks are deployed." The platoon leader glanced at Liu Guozhu again and replied: "Prepare to attack! Disband!"

Liu Guozhu jogged all the way back to his tank. By this time, the tanks closer to the meeting place had already been activated.

"Start the engine! Check the fuel gauge! Test the radio! Place the armor-piercing bomb in a convenient position!" He got into the turret of his tank, put on his earphones and pressed the switch of the intercom before ordering.

"Everything is normal!" The driver loudly reported the status of the tank's power system.

 “There is no problem on my side!” The electromechanical engineer also confirmed.

Since then, the No. 4 tank was launched. According to the previous tactical arrangement, Liu Guozhu ordered his tank to keep up with the platoon leader's tank, and fought along the road towards Luo Town ahead.

"Luo Town ahead! They seem to have discovered us too!" When Liu Guozhu passed his own soldiers and saw the town ahead, the Qi army on the opposite side seemed to be panicking and preparing to fight.

"Have you seen the tanks on the outskirts of the town? Choose a target! Fire!" The platoon leader's command came from the earphones, and Liu Guozhu immediately ordered: "Stop! Load the shells! Gunner, are you aiming at the target?"

“I saw the target! No need to look for it!” The gunner had already looked through the sight and saw a Cyric 1 tank in the distance.

That thing is tall and big, and is dressed in steel black, with no consideration for concealment. It just sits there, afraid that others won't know what it looks like there.

 “Loading completed!” the loader shouted loudly. The breech closed, and the gunner pressed the firing pedal.

"Boom!" The short-barreled 75mm caliber artillery spit out a stream of white smoke. At a distance of about 500 meters, the shell went straight to the target and easily penetrated the armor of the Cyric tank.

"Huh!" Liu Guozhu smelled the smell of burning gunpowder filling the cabin of his tank. The exhaust fan of the No. 4 tank could not remove the residual combustion gases inside the tank, so the crew inside the tank did not feel good during the battle. .

“Armor-piercing bullets! Reload!” Liu Guozhu saw through the gap that a Cyric tank was hit by a bullet and burst into flames. He also saw that another Cyric tank not far away was also hit. The explosion of this behemoth was spectacular, with flames spurting out from the six machine gun perforations around the Cyric tank, like a large alchemy furnace.

"Ding!" The Qi army had already begun to counterattack at this time. These Qi troops who came to Luo Town to set up defenses were also elite, so their combat effectiveness was not weak. A bullet hit Liu Guozhu's tank body and made a crisp sound.

But unfortunately, using a rifle to shoot a tank is obviously a meaningless thing. This shot has no effect except to make a sound.

Liu Guozhu's tank stopped on the spot and continued to fire, and easily destroyed another Cyric tank parked on the edge of the town.

Next to the fourth Qi army's Cyric tank, the Qi army's crew members were getting into their own tank. As a result, they were hit by the platoon leader's shell and turned into a ball of fireworks.

The smoke from the four exploding fireballs also began to obscure the view on the battlefield. At this time, the Tang Army's infantry was already close to a corner of the town under the cover of tanks.

The town of this era did not have those three-story or even higher buildings. It was still a flat surface as a whole, so the battle was not so three-dimensional.

No one has to be careful about the machine gun position on the commanding heights, nor does one have to worry about the enemy dropping a grenade from overhead.

Just by simply climbing over the courtyard wall, you can see groups of Qi soldiers running around like headless flies.

Then the soldiers of the Tang Army began to raise their guns and shoot, knocking all the soldiers of the Qi Army to the ground. Dense gunshots began to ring out, and the Qi soldiers who realized that someone was approaching also began to fight back blindly.

At this moment, Liu Guozhu's tank broke through the fireworks outside the town and found a new target in front of him.

 The tank swayed slightly and stopped on the road. The gunner easily took aim and opened fire. Another Cyric 1 tank that was not ready for combat disintegrated and exploded, sending out billowing smoke on the side of the road.

"My line of sight is blocked! I can't see anything!" Liu Guozhu reported loudly to his platoon leader while holding down the intercom on his throat.

If he chooses to continue moving forward now, he will have to knock away the Cyric 1 tank that he just destroyed.

 But such reckless behavior may cause a series of problems. Doing so may cause the No. 4 tank to stall or damage the No. 4 tank.

"I can't see either, I might be stuck!" the platoon leader shouted depressedly: "I want to cross the wall, **** it!"

"I'm reversing! I'll cover you to get out of there!" Liu Guozhu immediately ordered his tank to reverse: "Are there any enemy troops over there?"

"There are enemy troops outside my hatch! They are everywhere! They are firing at me! Damn it! Damn it!" the platoon leader yelled nervously on the channel with a desperate voice.

 “I’m here!” Liu Guozhu’s tank reversed for more than ten meters and saw the No. 1 car where the platoon leader was trapped deep in the enemy’s formation.

"Coaxial machine gun! Fire! 9 o'clock direction! Straf! Straf!" While loudly ordering his gunner to fire quickly, Liu Guozhu opened his hatch cover.

 He must carefully see the situation over there before he can make further judgments. The moment he poked his head out, the coaxial machine gun on the turret of the No. 4 tank he was on started roaring.

“Bang!” A bullet struck the steel plate of the No. 1 car where the platoon leader was sitting, causing a cloud of sparks to fly.

The Qi soldiers who were climbing onto Car No. 1 were suddenly beaten to pieces. The bullets flying everywhere tore their bodies apart, and in an instant, most of the No. 1 car was separated from the sea of ​​people.

"Platoon Commander! Can you hear me? Platoon Commander!" Liu Guozhu retracted his head, pressed his throat and asked loudly, but no matter how loud he shouted, he couldn't hear the answer.

"What the hell... Gunner, cover me! Shoot! Keep shooting! I want to get closer to see the situation of the platoon leader and the others!" Liu Guozhu swore, and then pulled off his earphones. He climbed out of his turret and jumped from the side of his tank.

 Fortunately, there was a burning Cyric 1 tank on the street on the other side, and the thick smoke emitted blocked the sight of the Qi army on the other side. Otherwise, Liu Guozhu's doing this would be no different from seeking death.

 He ​​took out the M1911 pistol for self-defense from his waist, bent down with the pistol and rushed towards the tank where the platoon leader was.

On the turret of the No. 4 tank behind him, the coaxial machine gun was firing continuously, hitting the armor of the tank with raindrops of bullets, knocking away the broken corpses on it.
