Chapter 2458 Howling at low altitude

The ISU-152A self-propelled artillery owned by the Leader Division has strong mobility. These heavy self-propelled artillery, which are modified using the body chassis of the IS6 heavy tank, do have an increase in total combat weight compared to the IS6, but not too much. , it has not reached the level of qualitative change caused by the increase in armor weight, only an additional three tons of weight.

This has to be lamented by Kogin's thorough understanding of tank design. Of course, this also led to the ISU-152A. While it has extremely strong protection, its maneuverability can fully keep up with the IS6 and can be mechanized. The assault accompanies the end result of the attack.

The main reason why these self-propelled artillery, which could have accompanied the three-dimensional assault and cooperated with the main force in the frontal attack, seemed to be delayed by half a beat at this time, was the command of comrade Malashenko, the division commander. Due to orders.

Yes, it was Malashenko's order that intentionally delayed these ISU-152As for half a beat before starting to act.

As for the reason, it was only when the Germans completely exposed the important firepower points of the peripheral defense that these steel behemoths carrying 152 cannons on their shoulders entered the battle. The intensive attack formation of the assault group will also affect the entry of these ISU152A into the shooting position to a certain extent.

In short, now is the best time for ISU152A to fight.

Following Malashenko's order, these 152 giants who responded to the call are now in their respective positions and entering the shooting position, slowly shaking the muzzle of the giant cannon to take direct aim and prepare to roar.

"The target is the Germans' anti-tank firepower point, attack first! Load high-explosive bombs into each vehicle, hurry!"

The distance is so close that the German's anti-tank gun cannot accurately hit, but with its own 152 grenade, it can attack in a wide range of AOE and stop at the "just right" distance to kill the German.

A large group of ISU152As quickly loaded with high-explosive grenades were quickly prepared. The Germans' various anti-tank technical weapons, including anti-tank missile launching positions, have become targets in their eyes and will be the first wave to be prioritized. The object of concentrated fire attack.

The Germans on the opposite side, who were fighting fiercely and almost crazy, had no idea what kind of god of destruction they had been targeting. I thought that after the Russian artillery fire was ready to pass, the crazy large-caliber grenade covering strikes would come to an end, and I could take a breath and relax a little for the time being.

Reality will teach these Germans how stupid they are and how wrong they are, but it will not give them a chance to change their ways. The distance between life and death is only a blink of an eye.

"Aimed!"

"Ready!"

"Lock the target!"

"Very good! Fire!!!"

Boom boom boom——

Each ISU152A, which raised its thick barrel according to the shooting scale, roared and fired. The hot projectiles rubbed in the air, making a dull and terrifying roar like a steam locomotive starting up, carrying a powerful and heavy feeling of destruction. The force hit the faces of the Germans who had no time to react, let alone avoid.

"Russian gun"

Boom——

boom! boom! boom! ! !

The German soldier who reacted the fastest even half-opened his mouth and didn't even have time to finish his words. The 152mm high-explosive grenade pellets that came towards him had already hit him in front of him, and he was only less than two meters away. There was an explosion outside the position.

The destructive shock wave, high-temperature flames, and blazing shrapnel formed a symphony of destruction. The huge explosion instantly covered up all the sounds in this battlefield area, engulfing all surrounding German personnel and equipment who had no time to escape. , put it in the pot and start stewing.

"Confirmed hit! I saw the German gun barrel flying up into the sky, keep loading! It's still a high-explosive bomb, hurry!"

"Load the warhead, hurry, hurry, hurry!"

"This shot is a bit off! Alyosha! Adjust two secret positions to the right. There is a German anti-tank gun on the right, give it another shot!"

"receive!"

The high-speed assault group in the front has not yet rushed into the enemy's position, but the self-propelled artillery group in the rear responsible for providing fire support has already roared loudly and turned the German position into a lively barbecue party with a fresh heat wave of destruction. stalls.

One after another, the dull whistling projectiles passed by at low altitude directly above the head, and then exploded in the blink of an eye on the German position not far away, making a violent roar like thunder rolling to the ground, which was enough to cause the earth to tremble.

Alsim, who was sitting in the infantry fighting vehicle, holding the gun barrel vertically and with the butt pressed to the ground, could feel all of this. He could clearly feel that in addition to the rapid forward assault of a huge number of tracked armored vehicles, the impact caused by In addition to the earth tremors, the movement caused by the continuous explosion of large-caliber grenades at the front of the German position was another completely different kind of earth tremor.

"There's so much movement in Suka, Comrade Company Commander! There wasn't that much movement yesterday. This is even more exciting than yesterday!"

"There will be something more exciting later, which will definitely satisfy you to the end."

"Can't wait to crush these naughties, Sokka!"

Hearing the soldiers sitting closely next to each other chattering and fighting high-spirited, they couldn't wait to tear the enemies on the position to pieces.

The silent Alsim did not choose to participate. Instead, he turned around and grabbed the observation window of the infantry cabin behind him and glanced out. He vaguely saw that the German position had entered the field of vision and was almost within easy reach. , Alsim, who estimated that time was almost up, then raised the assault rifle in his hand, pulled the charging handle to load the ammunition.

Kaka——

"The nonsense time is over, you guys are ready to follow me!"

Kaka——

crackling——

Click——

There were no superfluous and high-spirited slogans in response to Alsim, which was completely different from the busy discussion just now.

The combat engineers in the same vehicle only responded to the orders of their comrade company commander with the sound of their weapons being cocked and loaded. These armored combat engineers, who carry many other weapons in addition to conventional infantry combat equipment, are fully armed and have their swords drawn.

"Walk!"

Bang——

He rushed out of the car with another standard exiting motion of opening the door with a flying kick.

Alsim, whose feet landed firmly on the ground, did not dare to delay any longer, and immediately drove his legs to run, keeping up with the infantry fighting vehicle in front of him that was still driving at a low speed and continued to move forward.

The doors of the infantry cabins on the left and right sides have been opened one after another, and the combat engineers sitting in two rows facing each other in the vehicles are filing out, not forgetting to take the "heavy equipment" placed on the floor of the cabin and throw it away. Go out and hand it over to the comrades outside the car. They are the improved RPG-1 rocket launchers issued by the latest trial assembly. They have shown a considerable degree of combat effectiveness in yesterday's battle. They are far away from the Germans. It is easier to use than the unbearable iron fist.

And like many of the technical equipment of the Leader Division, although it is not a tracked armored combat vehicle, it is also a new weapon designed with the personal participation of the division commander.
