931 Small Town Kills

The Leopard tank, painted with iron crosses on the sides of the turret, slowly began to reverse under enemy fire, like a giant beast.

In the midst of the bumps, Karyus's Leopard tank retreated to the edge of the rubble behind him and completed its turn.

Although the chassis is simplified, the Leopard tank cannot do the same steering action on the spot as the Tiger tank, but its turning radius is also very small, and it is only a little bit different from turning on the spot.

"Now!" After turning, Karjus said to the crew: "At 10 o'clock!" There are Soviet tanks! ”

"The turret is turning!" Tyr pressed the switch on the steering motor, and the entire turret began to turn.

As the turret rotated, the 88 mm guns of the Leopard tank were aimed in the direction of 10 o'clock.

"Erich! I hope your driving skills are as good as you usually do! Karyus pressed the intercom on his throat and said to his driver, Erich.

"As you wish, Mr. Commander...... I'll probably be even better than I usually do! Pushing the lever forward, the driver, Erich, narrowed his eyes and replied.

As if given an order, the Leopard immediately rushed forward. The engine roared, and the mufflers on the exhaust pipes trembled.

Crashing through the ruins wall behind them, the Leopard Tank broke through the dust and entered the village streets of Red Tekach.

It came to a halt behind a collapsed house, and Caljuus lifted his captain's hatch and poked out his upper body.

In close combat, what restricts the combat capability of tanks is the narrow field of view. Experienced in combat, Karjus had suffered a poor lookout in previous street battles, and this time he decided to take a risk.

He gambled that Soviet tank commanders would not dare to open their hatches and command the battle at the risk of being killed by German soldiers.

This is one of the few advantages that Karjus has now: Red Tekach is still in control, surrounded by German infantry, who will not fire at the Leopards.

In this way, the danger factor for him to poke his head out to direct the battle will also be reduced, and it will be reduced to the extent that he can tolerate.

"Three, two, one! Speed up to the middle of the street! We're going to teach those Soviets a lesson! When Karjus was ready, he gave the order to move on.

The Leopard paused for a few seconds, then accelerated forward again, its tracks tumbling faster and faster, and the Leopard broke out of its hiding bunker.

Then, showing his head, Karjus saw a KV-1 tank across the street that was crashing through the wall.

"Ten o'clock! Tyr! Karyus saw the Soviet tanks in that direction through the small aiming gap in the commander's machine gun shield, and shouted loudly.

"I saw it!" Commander Tyr, who was aiming, replied loudly, and then fired a cannonball.

The Soviet KV-1 tank, which had just knocked down a wall and had not had time to adjust its position, was easily penetrated by German shells.

"One! We took out a KV-1 tank! I don't know how many are left! Caljuus shouted the number.

"The number of enemies is unknown! We can't afford to act rashly! On the radio, Joseph, an electromechanical officer, suggested.

He may be promoted to the commander of a new tank in the future, so his advice is sometimes taken by Karjuus.

But this time, Karjus didn't plan to fight according to the rules, he pressed the button of the throat intercom and gave his choice: "Keep going!" Erich! Speed up! Let's rush over! ”

The exploding KV-1 tank burned across the intersection, and the smoke obscured everyone's view. Bullets were swaying through the smoke, and German infantry were firing at the Soviet tanks they could see.

A Leopard tank slammed into the smoke, its tracks running over a shallow crater, and its wheels stumbling with the undulations of the terrain.

Leaning against the trembling hatch of the tank, Karyus stared at the wider and wider street ahead, where he saw the tail of a T-34 tank.

"See? Tyr! After discovering the target, Karyus instinctively reminded his gun commander: "At 10 o'clock, a T-34 tank is behind the wreckage of the exploding tank!" ”

"I'm already aiming for it!" Tyre replied loudly that he could aim at the T-34 tank through the scope without turning the turret at all.

"Boom!" A shell flew out of the muzzle of the Leopard tank and hit the T-34 tank that was trying to get past the wreckage of the exploding tank.

This distance is less than 100 meters at most, and at this distance, the 88 mm gun has no problem penetrating the armor of the T-34, although there are some angles.

So, before William could load the new shells, the T-34 over there exploded, and even the turret was blown out.

"Two! Keep looking for your goal! Karyus said aloud, and continued to search for his prey in the smoky environment.

As if he were a cheetah, he was patrolling his hunting grounds, looking for targets to be killed.

The difference is that cheetahs hunt herbivores such as antelopes, while the cheetahs of Caljuus hunt jackals and rhinos.

"Bypass these burning wreckage from the right!" Karyus's tank circled the two burning Soviet tanks and began to go in a big circle.

They walked around the burning wreckage, and then they saw a KV-1 tank making a clumsy turn.

Because it was also circling counterclockwise around the burning wreckage, Karjus saw the rear of the KV-1 tank.

"Boom!" Seeing the rear of this KV-1 tank, Tyr, who had been aiming for a long time, did not hesitate at all, and directly opened fire to destroy the Soviet tank, which had not yet found that there was someone behind him.

"Well done! Tyr! The third one! Karyus squinted, because of the proximity, the explosion just now even made him feel the hot waves blowing on his face.

"I saw that there was a T-1 behind this wrecked KV-34 tank! Hasten! Hasten! "Tyre, who saw the fourth target before opening fire, shouted directly at the driver, Erich.

And William, who had not spoken, quietly stuffed an armor-piercing bullet into the barrel of the cannon, and the bolt closed automatically, making a slight noise: "Click." ”

Erich, the driver, also did not speak, and pressed the accelerator pedal heavily, and the Leopard tank rushed past the burning wreckage like a wild horse.
