Chapter 172

Three tanks were moving forward in the slightly diluted fog, followed by several armored vehicles and dozens of SS infantry who had jumped out of the armored vehicles. Even if he was half naked, Ryan could feel the roar of the engine inside the tank.

In the distance, the houses in the small village could be seen faintly. The SS soldiers put their machine guns on a low wall by the side of the road, followed by the sound of pulling the bolt. Knowing that they were very close to the Polish defense, Ryan had to get into the turret of his tank and close the hatch.

"Clark! Search for the target straight ahead! If you find anything, fire immediately. " He ordered as he closed the hatch.

"Boom!" As soon as Ryan's order was given, he felt a slight flash of his chariot. He knew that a tank had opened fire, but it was not his car that opened fire: "Andre! hold still! Did anyone find the target? Car two! Marcus! What is going on? Are you firing? Answer quickly

"Hiss... Hiss... Car 3... You... What?" I can't hear clearly... "Marcus answered intermittently in the earphone:" 1... On... Damn it! "

"Fire Fire Another voice was shouting at the same time. It seemed that Carter, the commander of car 1, was giving them orders.

"Damn it! Car one is firing! Bauman! Back up Ryan got up from his seat and tried to open the door on his head in a hurry: "car 2! Fire smoke bombs! Cover our retreat

"Smoke... Play! I launched Car 2's answer was a little more coherent: "fire!"

"Boom!" Because the hatch cover happened to be opened, Ryan heard the loud noise of the cannon outside. Fortunately, he was still wearing headphones, otherwise he would not be able to hear anything now, but the dust raised by the air still forced him to retreat back to the tank turret, closed the hatch and yelled: "damn it."

"Stop! Bauman! parking! I'll say it again! parking! Asshole Ryan kept yelling, and finally he felt his tank stop, so he pushed the hatch open again and got out.

Holding up the telescope on his chest, he took a close look at the village in front of him and found that there were more than a dozen Polish defenders retreating, while a French Renault ft-17 tank was slowly reversing beside the poles.

"Andre, 11 o'clock! See those infantry? Don't aim, hit the grenade When he saw the enemy tank, he didn't dare to be careless. He pressed the voice of his throat and said: "Bruce! Armor piercing! Load! Come on! Come on! Come on

He felt the turret of his tank rotate slowly with his command, and the cannon in front of the turret pointed in the direction he needed. At this time, Ryan found that the smoke from No. 2 car was coming, which seriously affected his vision.

Not far in front of his tank, car No. 1 was reversing, because he pushed down the fence by the side of the road in a hurry, and then turned into the ditch by the side of the road.

"Boom!" Ryan felt his tank vibrate a lot. He didn't hold the handle tightly, so he was shaken around. The back of his head hit the hatch behind him. The pain came and stimulated his brain. Anyway, his tank opened fire and the shells didn't know where they were going.

"Damn it He covered his head, got into the turret, tightened the handrail, and said to Andre: "aim and fight! The target is Polish tanks! In the same direction

"Boom!" No.2 car fired again, a house in the village collapsed and raised more intense black smoke. Obviously, No.2 car didn't find its target at all, and it didn't know whether it was to embolden itself or to vent its anger, and it hit a building.

"Boom!" No. 1 tank also opened fire, but the cannonball really didn't know where to fly, because of the angle problem, No. 1 car towered gun barrel, according to common sense judgment, that angle couldn't hit anything at all.

At this time, Ryan felt that the turret of his tank had been slightly adjusted, so he subconsciously let himself grasp the armrest of the car more tightly.

"Boom!" There was a loud noise. This time, Ryan saw the tank in the turret. The gun's tail sat back deeply. The brake was also pressed to the shortest position, and the whole tank trembled. He quickly put his eyes in front of the commander's periscope and saw the French Renault tank in the distance, about two or three meters to the left. Mud rolled up with sewage.

Obviously, the gun didn't hit the target, but Ryan saw a Polish tank man jump out of his tank and run back in panic. Within two seconds, another member of the tank came out and ran away with a Polish infantry in the rear.

"Suddenly! Sudden! Suddenly! Suddenly, suddenly The German machine gun finally rang. Ryan got out of the tank and looked back. He saw some infantry cats rush past his own tanks and into the small village with fire and smoke. Soon, an armored car also drove by, and the machine gun on the armored car kept on shooting fire.

"Forward!" Raine pressed the mouthpiece and gave the order to his driver: "drive over! Load armor piercing! Alert 11 o'clock! clarke! Cover the infantry About a second later, the 113 tank he commanded started, made a roaring sound, and ran over the village. However, the 112 tank, which kept spraying smoke, also stopped panicking, and followed the 113 tank all the way into the village“ Car two! Car two! Do you hear me Ryan kept asking questions to the phone. Finally, the response he wanted came: "I'm... Car 2... Car 1... May need help! I saw them turn into the ditch I don't know what happened, but Ryan found that his communication equipment suddenly became easier to use, so he held down the phone and said, "there is an abandoned Polish tank in the farmland about 900 meters away from 11 o'clock! Renault ft-17 made in France, I want to go and have a look! Go back to number one and see if you can help! "“ Number two... Got it! Be careful yourself Marcus' answer came from the headphones, and then the tank following 113 stopped, and began to slowly reverse“ Suddenly! Suddenly! Suddenly, suddenly The guided machine gun in front of the tank suddenly opened fire, followed by the excited exclamation of electrical technician Clark in the earphone: "poles! I hit him! Ha ha“ Front left The pilot's voice then rang out: "they're firing at us! Front left! They're shooting at us! Cover me! I'm going to back up! Damn it As he spoke, he stopped the tank“ Do you see ten o'clock? Andre! Point the coaxial machine gun there! Try to be up! There's a machine gun position on the second floor! " Ryan used the commander's periscope to look for the left front for about 20 seconds before he found the Polish Army machine gun position that was pouring ammunition to them. It was a two-story chapel opposite the village square. The roof of the chapel had partially collapsed, which had just been knocked down by Marcus' shell that hit the house. Next door to this church is the hapless building that has been completely destroyed. And his tank began to reverse, adjusting its position and angle. At this time, a SS soldier, relying on his tank as a shelter, was exposed by their reversing, hit by a Polish bullet and fell on the side of the road“ Bang The German infantry began to fight back. One shot hit a Polish soldier who was leaning out of the building. The Polish soldier fell down in pain and hung on the window on the second floor. His rifle was hanging around his neck and dangling back and forth in mid air“ Suddenly, suddenly Raine had been staring at the machine gun position with the commander's periscope. He knew that the coaxial machine gun of his tank had opened fire, and the target position was covered by the splashing gravel and dust in an instant. However, the tracer bullets with linear light kept drilling into the smoke. The machine gun position of the Polish army was suppressed by the fire of the tank, and there was no sound for a moment“ cease-fire! Andre! Cease fire Ryan kicked Andre in the back with his toes and then ordered out loud. About two seconds later, the tanks and machine guns quieted down, and the German infantry passed the tanks, rushed through the small square in front of them, climbed up the second floor of the church, where they found the bodies of five Polish defenders. With the roar of the engine, Ryan's tank 113 stopped in the field behind the church. Next to the leopard tank was the abandoned French Renault ft-17 tank, surrounded by seven or eight SS infantry. Ryan pushed open the tank's canopy, took off his headphones, hung them on the hook, and jumped out of his tank. He saw the crater on the ground that was hit by his tank, and went to carefully observe the ft-17 tank. The track on one side of the French tank was broken, and the broken track was covered with rust. I don't know whether it was because of disrepair or because something splashed by Raine's shells actually hit it. A German soldier sitting on the engine of Renault's tank was full of ridicule: "it's our first time to fight, and it's your first time. But do you mean you can only shoot at the sky? " Ryan pointed to the tank behind him, the bullet hole in the fender and the bullet wound on the front armor plate. He narrowed his eyes and didn't speak. He knew that he had suppressed the machine gun position, forced his opponent to give up a tank, and killed about six or seven Polish soldiers. Compared with the number one car and the number two car in the back, this was a very proud record.
