Chapter 1743 1 vs. 17
Karatel showed no panic; on the contrary, he was the calmest of the three.
They used high-explosive shells to destroy the enemy's fixed anti-tank guns.
At the same time, observe the movements of other tanks.
A Tiger and a Panther attempted to penetrate the frontal armor of the Type 99A tank from the front.
Three shells were fired in succession, but all attempts failed.
It only made the driver in front feel dizzy.
After confirming that they could not penetrate the frontal armor of the 99a, the orc rebels immediately ordered their armored units to flank from both sides and launch a deadly sneak attack on the 99a from the rear.
Although they were unaware that the 99a's ammunition rack was located at the rear of the turret.
However, based on the layout of their Panther and Tiger models, it can be determined that if armor-piercing rounds are used to attack the tail of the Type 99A, there is a chance that the Type 99A can be penetrated.
The Orc rebels left a large number of short-barreled Panzer IV tanks in front to draw fire, while the remaining long-barreled Panzer IV tanks, Panther tanks, and Tiger tanks immediately made a rapid flanking maneuver to surround the rear.
Because they could feel the terrifying pressure emanating from the Type 99A—one shot, one tank!
While Karatl was searching for an anti-tank gun, he accidentally blew up a Panzer IV tank.
The armor of the Panzer IV was simply no match for the high-explosive shells fired by the Type 99A.
Logically speaking, high-explosive shells should be used against infantry.
However, it can still easily penetrate the Panzer IV, an outdated product.
The orc rebels' armored soldiers realized that time was money, so they dared not slack off and sped up to quickly flank the enemy.
However, that Tiger tank encountered a major problem.
The Tiger tank's engine malfunctioned due to operating at full load.
In various films and television shows, the Tiger tank is depicted as not moving very fast.
This wasn't because the Tiger tank couldn't go faster, but because it was prone to accidents if it went too fast...
The engine's power and tonnage are what they are, so the thrust is simply not enough.
It's like a small horse pulling a large cart.
The train conductor, seeing the driver in a state of panic, was also affected, even though he hadn't been flustered before.
The commander then looked at Karatl, because in his mind, Karatl should be the most timid one, but Karatl's current behavior exceeded his expectations.
The Karat was like a relentless machine, repeatedly aiming and firing.
As ruthless as an automatic loader.
Karatl's only language was reporting battle results.
"Destroy a tank!"
The tank commander roughly counted that the Karatl had destroyed at least three tanks and seven anti-tank guns.
The tank commander was so angry he laughed when he heard about this achievement.
Although we don't know how many tanks the enemy has, seven anti-tank guns alone are enough to give them a hard time. Seriously, is it necessary to target us like this?
The tank commander has already requested immediate support from the rear via radio.
The reconnaissance battalion was directly under the command of the 1st Armored Division.
Therefore, the division headquarters quickly devised a support plan.
The order was given directly to an artillery regiment at the front.
The artillery immediately began operating the towed howitzers.
Some people might think that these towed artillery pieces are incredibly clumsy in modern warfare.
They believed that a few drones would be enough to destroy these artillery pieces.
It's true that the price-performance ratio is not high.
However, it has been proven that artillery is the most cost-effective weapon compared to drones.
You might bring it up again and boast that drones can destroy a tank worth tens of millions and some expensive military units.
But in reality, artillery is the real all-rounder.
It can launch precision artillery fire or fire artillery-launched missiles to destroy armored units.
If things go smoothly, artillery support can be provided to the front lines within 3 minutes.
Covering teammates' retreat is also an excellent option.
One artillery piece has little impact on the front lines.
However, once the number of artillery pieces exceeds six, they can suppress a company-level unit, or even a battalion-level unit, on the position, preventing them from moving an inch.
The artillery regiment received a set of coordinates along with the order.
Since the enemy is an armored unit, it is impossible for artillery to accurately hit the tank from a distance of more than ten kilometers.
But their mission is to provide support quickly.
So their mission was to bomb the entire area surrounding 99a.
This artillery battery is equipped with six 2A65 towed howitzers.
The 2A65 is a rare find for the armed forces.
Because most of the towed howitzers used by the National Defense Forces are D20.
They're still fighting in the previous version.
The tension in the air force is just too great.
The artillery company immediately opened fire, beginning to cover the area surrounding position 99.
They didn't even bother with any calibration before firing.
Nonsense! If we wait any longer, our teammates will be turned into canned food!
At the same time, a Su-25 was scrambled from the Qingchi State Air Force Base.
It is expected to join the battlefield within 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, other armored units of the reconnaissance battalion also began to rapidly approach the main Karat group.
The closest unit to Karatl and his men was a 08 infantry fighting vehicle squad.
Upon receiving the mobilization order, the squad leader of the infantry fighting vehicle team did not hesitate and immediately ordered the driver to start the vehicle.
Panther tanks, Tiger tanks? My sword has proven effective against them as well!
My 30mm cannon will still beat you all to a pulp. Besides, do you think my anti-tank missiles are just for show?
The infantry squad received the order. After exchanging glances, they all looked at the man standing to the side.
As a qualified Great Flame Superman, the Superman with the tube is equipped with a 120mm anti-tank rocket launcher.
Strictly speaking, this thing requires two people to operate.
However, the Great Flame Superman is extremely terrifying.
One person can operate the PF98 anti-tank rocket launcher, and carry one tandem armor-piercing round and two armor-piercing rounds on their back.
The total weight is nearly 30 kilograms.
This is just the ammunition; a single anti-tank rocket launcher weighs 16 kilograms.
The most outrageous thing is that, as an anti-tank soldier, Da Yan Superman not only wears a bulletproof vest, but also carries a Type 191 assault rifle.
However, he only carried two magazines.
On Karatl's side.
A large number of tanks surrounded them from both sides, and only then did the tank commander confirm the number of enemy tanks.
A total of 17 vehicles!
Including the destroyed anti-tank guns, there are still 12 anti-tank guns left.
Dude, 12 anti-tank guns and 17 tanks, in this remote mountain valley?
At that moment, the train conductor was cursing under his breath.
Is it really that grand?
The commander didn't know that the reason the orc resistance forces had gathered so many people here was because they had received a tip that officers from the National Defense Forces would be taking this route.
That's why they deployed a large number of troops here.
The purpose was to carry out a decapitation strike.
And that was it. Then Karatl and his team got cornered...
Karatl pulled out 12 anti-tank guns and destroyed 4 short-barreled Panzer IV tanks at the same time.
Meanwhile, the remaining 13 tanks had circled around to the left, right, and rear, preparing to launch a surprise attack on Karatl.
The train commander was now in despair.
But Karatl did not give up.
It frantically rotated the turret, intending to use the turret's frontal armor to protect its rear.
At this point, the driver also started from scratch and tried to start the tank and get it moving.
However, Lady Luck smiled upon us.
99a actually moved!
The driver then realized that he hadn't broken the tracks; they seemed to be stuck.
At that moment, both the driver and the commander breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but marvel at the power of the 99A.
It can still move even after being hit by a barrel from the side!
Is this the Wailing Wall?
