Chapter 351

Sd Kfz 232 heavy armored vehicle, this is the official title, and in private, for convenience, this cheap armored vehicle with a large number of equipment is called a wheeled infantry fighting vehicle, which is to distinguish it from the tracked 251 series armored vehicle of.

Why cheap? Because the parts of this car are widely used with Ford's 10-ton trucks, this commonality has brought about a reduction in costs. After Ford set up a factory in Germany, the price of the truck dropped abruptly. Half, that's the charm of generalization.

On the other hand, because of the wheeled type, the resistance of the wheeled type is much smaller than that of the crawler chassis, and the speed on the road is faster and the fuel consumption rate is lower.

If there is a disadvantage, it is its off-road capability, which is always incomparable with the track. Later, on the muddy Soviet land, the passability of this wheeled infantry fighting vehicle is far less than that of the track.

However, at least for now, it is still suitable for warfare on the Continent.

At the same time, this infantry fighting vehicle has a lot of reference to the design of the truck. The engine is arranged in the front, the driver is on the left side, and the engine is on the right side. In this way, the rear space, equivalent to the part of the body, is quite spacious. .

Here, a ten-person battle group is arranged, which is exactly the space for an infantry squad.

Since there are tires on both sides, like the infantry fighting vehicles of later generations, the door is opened from the back. When needed, you can even jump down from the back while traveling. In this way, the front is blocked by the vehicle body, and the infantry is still relatively safe.

On the upper part of the hull is the turret.

The design of this infantry fighting vehicle is much more advanced than the open-mouthed 251 series armored personnel carrier, and it can fight directly on the battlefield!

There are small holes on both sides of the hull, allowing the infantry to shoot directly from the inside of the hull.

Thus, there is a new problem.

The Mauser rifle is too long, and even if it is used as a cavalry gun, it is further shortened, and it is not suitable for use in a small infantry fighting vehicle. Therefore, the armored infantry battalion must choose new weapons for combat needs.

If possible, they certainly hope that the 6.8mm MP38 submachine gun can be equipped with them. Now, the entire army is fighting for this submachine gun everywhere.

As an ordinary motorized infantry division, they can't grab anyone else's, so they can only settle for the second best, equipped with MP36 submachine guns, although they are second-hand goods replaced from the SS, they still make them excited. In particular, this batch is a model with 75 rounds of drums!

Small submachine gun, very suitable for use inside infantry fighting vehicles, and now, the collision with cavalry, just come in handy!

If the infantry went down and hurriedly arranged the interception line, they could only be crushed to death by these cavalrymen, sitting in the infantry fighting vehicle, which was extremely safe, and then, through the shooting hole, opened fire to the outside.

As soon as cavalry appears, fire!

In the turret of an infantry fighting vehicle, it is enough for the commander to only pay attention to the front. If there is a fish that slips through the net, the defense on both sides is handed over to the vehicle infantry, which is very suitable.

So, after the cavalry appeared in the field of vision, a German soldier immediately pulled the trigger of his submachine gun, and a shuttle of bullets swept towards the cavalry outside, and immediately gave this guy to the cavalry. done.

"Boom!" Two seconds later, the grenade exploded, and the infantry fighting vehicle had already left.

The 230-horsepower diesel engine is roaring, and black smoke is constantly coming out of the exhaust pipe on the side. During this hedging process, it must not be turned off. That is to discredit the German armored vehicle!

If you don't want to turn off the flame, you have to step on the gas pedal! The driver stepped on the accelerator and kept moving forward, and then he shouted: "Attention, hit!"

Bump!

The 20mm machine gun has 180 rounds of ammunition, half of which are grenades and half of which are armor-piercing shells. Now, the grenades have been exhausted. Just when the commander was about to change his weapon and operate the machine gun on the side, the Polish cavalry , collided like this!

The turret is small and can only be operated by one person. In fact, this infantry fighting vehicle is operated by three people, a driver, an electromechanical operator, and a commander, gunner and machine gunner.

The tall warhorse slammed into the infantry chariot, and on the horse's back, the rider wanted to jump up from the horse's back at the last moment of the collision!

If these armored vehicles are not destroyed, then the Polish cavalry charge will fail. When they find that the sides of the armored vehicles can actually fire, then they will only have one way to destroy these armored vehicles.

Jump on, pull off the grenade and blow them up!

He was very brave, but his behavior, in the eyes of the driver, was pure suicide.

When he was operating the warhorse and galloping over, the driver here also discovered his intention, and then the accelerator was stepped on to the end.

The roar of the engine could be clearly heard on the battlefield where the gunfire was loud, and the infantry fighting vehicle suddenly accelerated.

So, the cavalry here was standing on horseback, and before he jumped over, his horse had a close contact with the infantry chariot.

On a ten-ton chassis, the transformed infantry fighting vehicle was also about ten tons, and the front armor slammed into the warhorse.

In a collision, the one with the greatest quality will always win. This is the case when a chariot collides with a chariot, and even more so when a chariot collides with a horse.

The warhorse was neighing, and the violent collision knocked it down immediately. The severe pain of the broken leg bone made it wailing, and the cavalry on the horse was also thrown down at this moment.

For the infantry fighting vehicle, this collision only made it vibrate a little. At the moment of the collision, the driver stepped on the clutch, for fear that the engine would stall, then he lifted the clutch and continued to apply the accelerator. All stepped down, and at the same time, two arms swung the steering wheel.

The opponent's warhorse fell to the left, and now, he turned to the left!

The wide off-road tires rolled onto the warhorse, one after another, when the four tires rolled over, the warhorse lost its life.

At the same time, on the other side of the war horse, a cavalryman who was crushed in half, stroked the head of the warhorse with his last strength. Just now, the off-road tires also pressed on the cavalry.

One person and one horse, almost closed their eyes at the same time, this tragic battle has nothing to do with them.

Fighting is so bloody and cruel, and at this time, tolerance towards the enemy is cruelty towards oneself! If there is no armored infantry battalion to participate in the battle, then all the remaining infantry soldiers will be trampled to death by these cavalry!

These Polish cavalry are all ruthless characters. They were the same in the battle with the Soviet Union a few years ago. Even, they like to step on the enemy with horses and listen to the sound of broken bones.

This is the battle, the battle of blood and fire.

The setting sun is like blood.
