Chapter 556 Chapter 556
"Stop! Fire! Reload!" Through the gap in the observation window, Liu Guozhu saw a Qi army tank rotating its turret in the distance.

The iron lump on the opposite side looked extremely fat, with short legs and a small head, as if he was a clown.Compared with the No. 4 tank, the Cyric 1 tank is indeed too weird.

It also has a turret, but is very small.There is also a 75 gun installed on it, which is also a short barrel, and the purpose is to destroy the enemy's fortifications.

The difference is that this artillery is aimed directly, without an optical aiming system - its accuracy basically depends on a lottery.

This artillery was not designed to hit enemy tanks at the beginning, so it cannot be compared with similar weapons on the No. 4 tank.

Although the short-barreled 4 gun on the No. 75 tank is also a low-pressure gun and has weak armor-piercing ability, it is still equipped with an optical sight, which can support its aiming and shooting at a longer distance.

A coherent order flowed out of Liu Guozhu's mouth, the No. 4 tank stopped briefly, and a shell was fired.

The loader took advantage of this short time to reload a shell.When Liu Guozhu shouted the command "forward", the gunner was already choosing his fifth target.

Fighting this way, they are really like the ancient cavalry, strangling into the battlefield, disrupting the enemy's formation, and killing through the enemy's phalanx.

Any enemy tank they encountered, they would bombard it, turning it into an explosion of flames.

The gunner was extremely excited at this time, because he just used 9 shells to kill 5 tanks of the opponent!
For him, this is already a super level performance.After all, this is on the battlefield, and it is already very proud to be able to achieve better results than usual training.

"Ahead! An enemy tank! Aim!" Liu Guozhu ordered loudly when he saw an enemy tank not far in front of them.

Just as he gave the order, the small short gun on the enemy tank fired a shell and spewed out a burst of flames.

"It's firing! It's firing!" The gunner had just aimed his scope at the Qi army tank when he saw the flames spewing out and was taken aback.

"It's not attacking us! Don't panic! Stop! Aim at it! Fire!" Liu Guozhu reminded his crew loudly, and then followed the order.

His car stopped again, the car body shook slightly, and then returned to a standstill.

After simply adjusting the angle of the turret, the gunner aimed the front sight on the sight at the Qi army tank that had just fired a shot.

In the next second, he stepped on the pedal and fired a fatal shot. The thick and short gun barrel of the No. 4 tank also sprayed out a burst of flames, and the Qi army tank on the opposite side exploded immediately.

It felt wonderful, the 10th shell gave the gunner his 6th victory of the day!At this time, there seemed to be very few Qi tanks on the battlefield.

"Retreat! Get out of here! Quick!" On the other side, the Qi State officer commanding the battle in a Qi State tank ordered loudly.

Next to the tank he was in, a Cyric 1 tank had exploded and burned, billowing thick smoke.

The burning tank obscured his vision, and at the same time made him realize that he should retreat quickly.

Originally, they came to break through the Tang army's position, but they only advanced a few hundred meters before they met their peers, who were several times stronger than them.

Because there was no radio equipment, these tanks of the Qi army did not notice the group of living Hades who came from the side.

They are concentrating on moving forward, preparing to crush the Tang army's position and open the way for the follow-up infantry attack.

But as Qi tanks were destroyed one after another, some people still saw the danger suddenly emerging from the flanks.

But it is a pity that these tank commanders have no means at all to share what they see with their comrades.

They can only cope with what they discover, but they cannot inform others of what they have seen.That's the sad thing about tank crews without radios: by the time they know everything, it's too late.

As a result, Qi tanks were destroyed one after another, and the remaining tanks continued to move forward like fools.

"Let them retreat quickly!" Qin Xiong, who was watching what happened on the battlefield, felt that his country's tanks were a bunch of blind people.

Seeing that the flanks were almost slaughtered, the remaining tanks were still advancing blindly, acting according to the predetermined plan.

"I have sent someone to contact... I... my side, my side has also signaled..." The officer in charge of commanding these tanks turned pale, and his voice could clearly be heard trembling.

As soon as he saw the threat from the flank, he knew that his troops were almost finished today.

He who knows his troops best knows that there is no good way to control and command these Cyric steel monsters.Once they are put on the battlefield, they can only rely on instinct to fight.

But he still struggled a few times: while ordering the messengers to risk their lives to deliver the news one tank after another, he set up a semaphore on his own position.

This is the most reliable means of communication, and it is the most rustic way to command the most advanced land weapons: all Cyric tanks have observation windows at the back, and the purpose of these rear observation windows is to observe the semaphore command on your own position .

Just now, the attacking tank troops of Qi State saw the flag bearers frantically giving orders to retreat on their own positions.

After losing most of the tank troops of the Qi State, many people found the tanks of the Tang army attacking their flanks after seeing the semaphore of retreat, and were about to slaughter them all.

Seeing his own tanks retreating slowly on the battlefield full of gunpowder and wreckage, Qin Xiong's face was extremely gloomy.

Looking at the situation on the battlefield, he found that the so-called trump card and secret weapon on his side seemed to be a joke.

At this moment, he felt like a baby waving his fist in front of adults, so ridiculous that it was even a little cute.

Finally, he decided to do something, even if it was to add a little trouble to Tang Jun on the opposite side, and it would be good to disgust the opponent.

Thinking of this, he suddenly looked at the herald beside him, and ordered: "Let the artillery start shelling! Cover the battle area!"

"General!" Hearing this order, the commander of the Qi army's tank unit, whose troops were fighting hard in the battle area, subconsciously shouted with a pale face.

"My lord, the fighting area, as well as our army..." Another general glanced at the desperate tank commander, and came out to help and said, "Fire rashly...I'm afraid it will damage morale..."

"I know what you want to say, but in this situation, can those tanks...can be withdrawn?" Qin Xiong gritted his teeth and asked angrily.

"This..." The general who came out to persuasion froze, showing embarrassment, bowed his head resentfully and stopped talking.

"Being hunted down by Tang army's tanks, our tanks probably won't come back a few! Why don't we take advantage of the opportunity of the enemy's melee with our army and replace the enemy's tank troops..." Qin Xiong made up his mind and said viciously The order said: "Fire! Cover the war zone!"

The tank troops of Qi State, who were fighting hard on the battlefield, did not know that they had been abandoned by their commanders.The armored troops of the Tang army who had already entered the battlefield did not know that their enemy had prepared a big gift for them.

Just when Liu Guozhu was about to stop and fire another shot, sending a reversed Cyric 1 tank into the sky, a shell from a 130mm howitzer fell on the open space in front of him and exploded. , set off a cloud of dust.

"Damn! Shelling!" Liu Guozhu was taken aback by the sudden explosion, and then he quickly realized that someone was shelling the area where he was.

"Bombardment! Watch out for bombardment!" He grabbed the communicator and shouted at the top of his voice when the second shell landed on the ground.

At this moment, a No. 4 tank that was advancing was hit by a shell, and the huge explosion lifted the turret of the No. 4 tank, leaving only the burning car body paralyzed in the position.

This is not the first time that the No. 4 tank has been destroyed, but it is the first time that Liu Guozhu has seen the No. 4 tank destroyed.

"Turn right! Turn right! Drive towards our own position! Get out of here! Get out of here as soon as possible!" In the chaos, the command of the battalion headquarters reached the ears of all the commanders in time.

"Turn right! Speed ​​up! Rush towards our own defensive position! Hurry up!" Liu Guozhu also knew that this was the fastest and shortest way out of the shelling area.

Almost all the No. 4 tanks started to turn in the first time, and then accelerated recklessly, leaving the battlefield full of tank wreckage like hell, and fled the shelling area.

On the Qi army's position in the distance, looking at the tank commander of the Qi army whose reaction speed was a hundred times faster than his own troops, he was about to cry.

He didn't know how the other party managed to make these steel giants move like their arms, so he could only watch helplessly as the shells fell on the battlefield where only Qi army tanks remained.

A few seconds later, he suddenly remembered something, and immediately jumped up and grabbed Qin Xiong's arm: "General! Stop the bombardment! Stop!"

Seeing that Tang Jun left several No. 4 tanks that were destroyed by artillery shells and fled, Qin Xiong also felt that it was pointless to continue firing.So he sighed, and ordered with some regret: "Go and order to stop the bombardment..."

In his opinion, the death of his own tank unit is not a pity, and it is a pity that he did not die with the extremely powerful armored unit of the Tang Army.

If he could make a choice, he would rather let the armored forces on both sides sacrifice to the sky together.At least, this will save him from having to worry about his headquarters being taken away...
