With the command of karyus, the rear of the tank, a small cylinder, immediately emitted black smoke, which was quite intense, and soon completely surrounded the tank. The tank began to move forward in the thick smoke.
On the battlefield, gunpowder smoke rises everywhere, and pilots will have some obstacles when they observe the situation on the ground from the gunpowder smoke. According to this idea, there are special devices on German tanks. It is this kind of smoke generator, which is simply called smoke cans.
In later generations, tanks also have this kind of equipment, that is, small cylinders erected on both sides of the tank turret, which are generated by electric shock. After they are used up, they must be replenished.
Now, this kind of thing equipped on German tanks is more primitive. In short, it is realized by burning diesel.
German tanks use diesel, and when diesel is not completely burned, it will emit a lot of black smoke. In this smoke tank, there is an oil nozzle to spray fuel, and then ignite intermittently to prevent the diesel from completely burning. In this way, the rolling black smoke comes out.
The advantage is that it is quite continuous. Unlike later generations, one can produce smoke once. It can be produced continuously until the diesel runs out. At the same time, the coverage area is relatively large, which can completely cover the tank.
If an aircraft flying in the air wants to attack the ground, it must know the target location accurately. As long as it is hidden in the smoke, it is absolutely safe.
At this time, karyus's fleet had slipped away in the smoke, and the 88mm high explosive grenade was flying towards the sky.
Pokhav's plane had just turned. When he completed the heavy overload maneuver and was ready to dive, he only saw a cloud of black smoke on the ground. Among the black smoke, an 88 mm shell flew towards his plane.
"Boom!"
The 88mm shell hit the front of the IL-2 aircraft and below the engine.
If it is later generations, with various advanced electronic technologies, we can control the explosion of shells, detonate them nearby, and kill each other by fragments. But now, this technology is absolutely high-tech.
Germany is overcoming technical difficulties. It plans to first implement the radio proximity fuze on large caliber anti-aircraft guns. Now great progress has been made. However, tank shells will not do this. Even grenades will explode only when they hit.
Therefore, pokhav was unlucky enough to be directly hit by this shell.
If you want to make complaints about it, go to the book review area.
The lethality of the 88 mm grenade is quite amazing. Even if the large caliber shell explodes nearby, it can kill directly by shrapnel and even air waves, let alone hit directly now.
In the explosion, the front engine was instantly hit by shrapnel, and the engine began to catch fire. A large number of shrapnel banged on the pilot's bathtub armor. Fortunately, none of them penetrated.
Just because the pilot is not injured doesn't mean he can be safe.
Pokhav saw the flames coming out in front of him and knew that the plane could not be saved. He pushed the hatch cover off his head and then pushed the operating lever.
The wing was also hit with a lot of shrapnel, and the rudder was almost out of control. Bokaff almost tried his best to turn the plane upside down. Then he pushed hard under it and let himself fall from the cockpit. This is a standard parachute jump.
The flames in front of him had already jumped over. Pocahov felt that his eyebrows had been scorched. His body fell out of the cabin and looked down. His face suddenly changed.
The height is too low!
He quickly pulled the parachute rope and hoped that the parachute would open. However, at the moment when his parachute opened, the burning plane overhead fell and hit his parachute, and the parachute also burned.
In the sky, bokav turned into a big stone and fell to the ground.
"217, well done!" The voice of the battalion commander came from the headset. Carlus ordered the tank to stop smoking. He opened the hatch on the top and looked at the plane falling in the distance.
At this time, there was a rumble overhead. The fw190 fleet, which was responsible for seizing air control, had quickly arrived after learning the news, but there was nothing to do with them.
"Karius, you are promoted to the commander of this tank, and I will send you a new artillery commander soon." The battalion commander's tank moved next to him and said to karyus.
At this time, carlus was cleaning up the blood on the turret, and half of the body of the captain was carried out.
And Carlos, who accepted the order and sat in the position of the conductor, finally waited for the opportunity.
This is just a small episode on the road of attack. The whole tank force continues to move forward. Their goal is Minsk.
Minsk rear, 13th group army headquarters.
Pavlov did not look very well.
When Pavlov first came here, the command of the western special military region was extremely chaotic, but now everyone knows that Pavlov is here, so a lot of news came directly here.
Pavlov got new news, which made him very upset. These news were negative.
He has ordered all the troops to fight back in their persistence, but the effect is quite bad.
In the Grodno area, the Soviet army made a hasty counterattack, but it was surrounded by the counter attack. The Soviet army in Grodno suffered heavy casualties and was forced to retreat in the direction of new gludok, which led to a huge gap between them and the Soviet army in the north.
At Pavlov's command, his legion launched a second counterattack against the German army.
Unfortunately, the organization of this counterattack is still very hasty and lacks the necessary material supply to support the counterattack. As last time, their counterattack group was unable to fight effectively. Not only did it not succeed, it also led to the division of the troops into several pieces by the German second armor cluster, which forced them to fight and retreat. A large amount of equipment was lost and captured by the German army.
Now, the interpenetrating corps of the central group army has penetrated 200 kilometers into the territory of the Soviet Union. The 3rd, 4th and 10th group armies of the western front of the Soviet Red Army in biavistock were completely surrounded.
Pavlov's mind was a little misty. All day long, he was looking at the map and thinking. He knew that he had to do something. He was taken to Ural Mountain when he failed in the last battle. If he failed again this time, he was afraid that his life would be in danger.
He wants to keep his position. He wants to make up for his mistakes and turn the situation around.
