Chapter 688 Slaughtering the Cow

With its open roof and little protection, it could only withstand small arms fire. It could not withstand any anti-tank weapons. However, the German army brought such a thin-skinned and big-filled thing close to Malashenko before he died. Distance rode on the face and blasted the building, completely ignoring the Soviet tanks that still had strength.

The feeling of being looked down upon is uncomfortable in most situations, and sometimes it can even make people angry. This is basically the case with Malashenko right now.

"High-explosive bombs! Take out those crappy hoods of the Krauts!"

After receiving Malashenko's order, Iushkin quickly shook the turret steering gear and the main gun elevation machine in his hands. The 85mm full-caliber high-explosive grenade taken from the first ammunition rack at the rear of the turret was then pushed in. Bore.

Several German tanks two hundred meters away from Malashenko's position at a 45-degree angle noticed the danger in time, but the tanks, which seemed to have no intention of escaping, turned directly and began to try to clear the black hole. The muzzle of the gun was aimed at Malashenko. If the 150mm caliber could really hit, it would be enough to knock over Malashenko's IS1 prototype on the spot.

At the same time, these vehicles were not the only ones targeting Malashenko's car. Several Sanbald vehicles maintaining pressure in the frontal attack direction were also putting pressure on Malashenko.

Ding-ding——

The 75mm full-caliber hooded armor-piercing projectile hit the side armor of the vehicle and bounced off on the spot, sparking a burst of dazzling sparks. Malashenko, who didn't care about those three bald men who were useless, had a very clear priority target. These vehicles were extremely threatening. Large German troops must be dealt with as quickly as possible.

"The first one, he's aiming at us! Shoot and kill it!"

He aimed at the target almost in the last two seconds before the muzzle of the black and thick 150mm main gun of the Niu was completely adjusted. Iushkin, who had already been prepared, fired before the gun scope had completely stabilized. Point blank fire.

Iushkin, who believed that he would not miss, got his wish. The 85mm full-caliber high-explosive bomb hit the side armor of the car without any bias, triggering the detonation and instantly expanding into a blazing fireball.

The open-top design of the Niu can barely withstand the fire of small arms. Large-caliber heavy machine guns can penetrate the front bulletproof plate of this thing.

Now it is directly hit by an 85mm high-explosive projectile with a 660-gram TNT charge in the warhead. It is natural to imagine the terrible consequences.

boom--

The spreading flame explosion first detonated the exposed ammunition box located at the upper end of the rear of the vehicle body, and the remaining seven rounds of 150mm projectiles contained in it exploded catastrophically.

In less than half a second, the chain reaction caused by the explosion of the external ammunition rack affected the remaining 9 rounds of 150mm projectiles stored in the vehicle. The devastating disaster suddenly struck before everyone could react. .

The power of the 16 rounds of 150mm projectiles that exploded at once was so shocking that even Malashenko, who was in the tank a hundred meters away, felt his car shaking together with the earth.

The smoke and dust from the explosion of the ammunition, which was at least thirty meters high, rose straight from the ground into the sky.

The horrific explosion made Malashenko, who was holding on to the turret bulkhead and feeling the crazy shock wave, immediately realize an obvious thing while his body was shaking.

"Damn it, I'm afraid this movement may have blown up the cattle cars next to it."

Malashenko guessed correctly.

The power of the initial 16 rounds of 150mm projectiles that exploded at once was too astonishing. The Monkey King, which was not equipped with armor-piercing projectiles, was filled with high-explosive grenades and propellants used to attack fortresses. Once the ammunition exploded, The scene of destruction is far beyond imagination.

The remaining two Ma Niu vehicles, which were less than thirty meters apart, were immediately affected by the shockingly powerful explosion. The three vehicles added up to exactly 50 rounds of 150mm high-explosive grenades, and they all exploded on the spot like a fire ammunition depot. .

The terrifying shock wave instantly swept through the entire battle area in front of the train station, and the scene of flying sand and rocks, shaking the ground and mountains, seemed like the end of the world.

The other German armored vehicles accompanying the Bullock became the first to be unlucky.

The luckier No. 3 tank, which was far away from the center of explosion, was knocked over by the strong shock wave and even its tracks were broken into several pieces. The most unlucky No. 4 tank, which was only 12 meters away from the center of explosion, was directly knocked out of the tank. The entire vehicle was reduced to parts scattered everywhere.

Political Commissar Petrov, who was sitting in the waiting hall directing the battle, was shocked by the shock wave that swept across instantly. He fell to the ground. A large metal object that he didn't clearly see what it was was a bit "lucky" and went directly along the path that had just been struck. The 150mm high-explosive grenade flew through the three-meter-wide hole in the wall.

Political Commissar Petrov, who mistakenly thought it was the Germans who fired artillery shells through the hole, was startled. The dust that filled the room made him unable to see for a moment. He flew in and hit the ground and jumped several times. What exactly is the object.

When the smoke and dust rising in the room gradually settled, Petrov, who had just stood up and was a little shaken, discovered that what flew into the room turned out to be a Panzer IV tank road wheel that was almost twisted into a twist.

"Damn it, what did Malashenko blow up?"

The explosive explosion of ammunition has reached such a shocking level that even Malashenko himself was shocked.

Originally, he only wanted to kill the German thugs one by one. Malashenko never thought that his one shot would cause such a big noise. The formation just now was even compared to the explosion of an aerial bomb. Nothing less.

After such a toss-up, the German formation, which was originally attacking with a fierce momentum, immediately felt like a large piece of cream cake had been eaten away by a mouse. Just after the loud noise just now, the German soldiers who were killed, injured and incompetent to fight were at least a few. Two to three hundred people.

The German army, who only wanted to capture the train station in the shortest possible time, paid an unimaginable heavy price and took the risk of sending the mobile ammunition depot to the front line for direct aim shooting. The First Heavy Tank Breakthrough Regiment of the Guards, a powerful anti-tank force, did this even though it still had strength.

Taking risks may not result in 100% success, and you must pay the price if you fail.

The German army, which was swept away by the ammunition explosion and the shock wave like falling leaves in autumn, suffered heavy losses, was unable to continue to maintain this wave of offensive, and withdrew as quickly as the ebbing sea water.

It only took one shot to disintegrate a German attack wave. This result made Malashenko a little stunned. Malashenko, who never believed in luck on the battlefield, was completely unlucky this time. Hit the top of the head.
