Chapter 1062 The battle between the old and the new
Faced with these tanks from the Orc Empire, the Wehrmacht put all its efforts into it.
The gunner did not hesitate at all and directly chose to use armor-piercing discarding sabot shells.
A steel needle flew towards an M1A1 at an extremely fast speed.
The M1A1 took the bullet head-on.
Because both sides were very cautious, the tanks on both sides adopted a head-on confrontation and did not expose too much of the flanks.
Both sides could only bombard each other's frontal armor.
The orc gunners of the M1A1 were not fools either, and they decisively chose to use armor-piercing bullets to attack.
However, ordinary armor-piercing bullets can only explode the equipment on the ground when hitting the explosive anti-armor.
It is impossible to cause effective damage to the T72.
But the Papal States had obviously taken into account that ordinary tank guns could not cause effective damage to the Wehrmacht's armor.
So they prepared a special move for each tank.
The armor-piercing bullet used by the M1A1 is a solid bullet, which is the most basic armor-piercing bullet.
The two sides were not at the same level in the development of armor-piercing shells, even though the Papal States overtook the Wehrmacht in armored units.
However, there is still a certain gap between the two sides in terms of precision technology.
But the Papal States were not stupid. They fought back with their own tanks.
It turned out that ordinary armor-piercing shells could not penetrate their own tanks at all.
After firing five or six rounds at the same part.
Testers in the Papal States discovered that their tank guns were unable to penetrate the armor of their own tanks.
They still have a fixed understanding and believe that their tank guns must destroy their own tanks.
In fact, if you let Type 99A fight Type 99A, it may not be able to knock the tank off its head...
But tests in the Papal States found the artillery to be too weak.
So we started to improve the artillery.
But they found that blindly increasing the caliber would only destroy the original layout of the tank.
So they decided to do something with the shells.
They abandoned the previous caliber and justice and began to modify the shells.
However, due to the tense war situation, the Papal States could only send a batch of tanks to the Orc Empire first, hoping to test the quality of these tanks through actual combat.
Also sent along was a small number of artillery shells.
These shells are upgraded versions of armor-piercing shells. The magician has carved a large number of magic circles on the warheads of the armor-piercing shells.
This has caused costs to rise sharply, but it has also brought great benefits to armor-piercing projectiles.
Enhanced the armor-piercing capability of armor-piercing shells.
If the steel needle has the advantage of size, then the magic armor-piercing of the Papal State is purely a matter of great force.
Due to the small number, Bachmut did not distribute it to the armored troops at first.
But later, Bachmut thought about it again, and finally equipped the last batch of tank troops that set out with these magic armor-piercing shells.
The tanks currently engaged in combat with the Wehrmacht's armored forces were not using this type of armor-piercing shells.
The tank gunners under Gudli began to use steel needles to call out the names of these orc tanks one by one.
A steel needle directly knocked out an M1A1.
The steel needle sank directly into the tank, and then the tank instantly lay motionless. The crew members inside were likely to have suffered a devastating blow...
For tanks, the steel needle can only be said to be penetrating damage.
But for the crew members inside, it was a devastating blow...
The orc tank nearby saw his comrade being killed by a single shot and immediately came to his senses. He very tactfully ran away in a smoke screen without even getting any orders from his superiors.
Bachmut received a total of 120 M1A1s.
It was impossible for Bachmut to defeat all 120 tanks in one battle.
He must leave a way out for future wars.
Watching the Orc Empire tanks fleeing frantically, Gudli rarely ordered a pursuit this time.
Because these tanks were beyond Guderian's understanding.
Because even a steel needle cannot penetrate armor 100%.
There was even an orc tank that took three steel needles and was still able to run away alive.
Even Guderian observed from a distance that the steel needle had clearly penetrated the tank, but the tank was still moving.
As it turned out, the steel needle did penetrate into the tank and caused some damage to the interior of the tank, and the tank gunner died on the spot.
But the driver was still alive. Covered in blood, he drove the tank away madly.
The tank commander also fell into a coma at this moment, but the driver still drove the tank back!
Afterwards, Guderian learned the whole story and couldn't help but admire the driver.
Because the Orc Empire pulled out its armored forces, it dealt a direct blow to the rapidly advancing First Armored Division, and the commander of the First Armored Army had to order the army to suspend its actions.
Because the commander needs to rethink how to fight this war...
The Army started to think for the first time, but the Air Force did not think so much.
Just rush in and it's over!
After learning that the army was in a stalemate, Air Force Commander Carl immediately chose to send out a group of bombers to carry out precision strikes against the Orc Empire's industry.
But what Carl didn't expect was that this round of attack by the Orc Empire did not rely on their own industry, but basically relied on military aid from the Papal States...
The only domestically produced weapon of the Orc Empire is the bullet in their gun chamber.
Because even the guns were donated by the Papal States...
So is this a fight between the Orc Empire and Dayan, or between the Papal States and Dayan?
Lyon also guessed the trick on the front line, and then directly ordered the Great Yan Embassy in the Papal States to seek an answer from Holdress.
But Holdress played dumb and asked, where did the armored forces of the Papal States come from?
My Lord Leader, I am a good citizen!
Holdris's pretending to be crazy and stupid did not reduce Lyon's suspicion. In fact, Lyon was more certain that it was Holdris who provided the weapon.
But now, almost the entire Wehrmacht is undergoing equipment replacement, and the only one that may have combat effectiveness is the First Panzer Army that is currently in combat.
The Second Armored Army and several other infantry armies are still in the process of replacing their equipment.
Most of their weapons and equipment are still at the level before the First Armored Army was re-equipped.
Some people may wonder why Lyon doesn't speed up its outfit change?
Because the next generation of weapons and equipment is about to come out, it is impossible for Lyon to change equipment twice in a short period of time.
Changing clothes costs money! Where does the money come from? Do they steal it from the people?
Therefore, the most urgent task is to swallow up the Orc Empire and pave the way for the five-year plan...
