The Third Reich

The M1910/34 type 152mm howitzer is a type of howitzer that the Soviet Union began to use during World War I. Soviet military personnel, on the basis of this howitzer, improved the M1937 howitzer, this heavy howitzer looks like Very mighty and spectacular.

The first thing you can see is its huge wide and wide off-road tires. Each tire looks like a monster with a deep off-road pattern. On top of it, the thick and long howitzer is just It makes people feel awe.

God of war!

Now, the Soviet howitzer unit is ready. They have calibrated all the shooting elements, only waiting for the arrival of the final order.

This order did not come slowly.

After dawn, two hours, less than nine o'clock, the order had come down.

"High-explosive grenade, reload!" At each gun position, the squad leader of the artillery squad shouted loudly and waved the small banner in his hand: "Target No. 3, calibrated according to predetermined data."

Two loaders, carrying dozens of kilograms of shells, stuffed them into the barrel: "Loading is complete!"

"Shooting all yuans for calibration."

"Fire!"

The squad leader violently waved the small banner in his hand, and at the same time, the gunner violently pulled the gun rope.

"Boom!" The loud sound of the gun shook everyone's ears rumblingly. When shooting, except for the gunner pulling the gun rope, almost all the other gunners squatted, covering their ears with their hands. , Even the monitor is no exception.

This has nothing to do with courage, this kind of large-caliber howitzer is so fierce when shooting!

A huge flame emerged from the muzzle. In the smoke, the shells flew out at a speed of 655 meters per second.

The huge recoil force caused the seven-ton gun body to retreat abruptly by half a meter. The entire gun body flew up in vibration, the tires left the ground, and the shovel behind it pierced deeply into the soil.

The whole position was shrouded in gunpowder smoke. In the gunpowder, 152mm grenades flew past and flew to the fortifications of the Brest Fortress!

The Soviets fired first, they fired the first shot!

This type of shell has a maximum range of 17 kilometers. They are at the rear of the entire position. They thought it was the safest. Until now, no heavy artillery has been found in the Brest Fortress. They just don’t know that they will Sacrifice in the most heroic way.

Behind the Brest Fortress, Gustav Cannon.

"High explosive warhead, loading! Range of 33 kilometers!" More than a thousand officers and soldiers cooperated closely.

Bolt stood on the open space outside, looking at his own cannon, which was on its first mission before launching, while Wolfgang directed it meticulously.

The 4.8-ton warhead was stuffed into the barrel by the automatic loading mechanism, followed by a propellant weighing eight tons.

Yes, this is the order of magnitude!

The Soviet 152mm howitzer, in front of this behemoth, is pediatrics!

Its shells are several meters long! This is still a high-explosive projectile. If it is an armor-piercing projectile, the weight of the warhead is astonishing 7.1 tons!

Its propellant package is determined according to the range. When using the maximum charge, the grenade can be hit 48 kilometers away!

Everything is proceeding tensely and orderly, and time is passing by little by little. This cannon, just to reload, it takes at least ten minutes!

During this time, the Brest Fortress was experiencing a storm-like blow.

"Do not!"

At the top of the church, Major Zavrilov looked at the boiling smoke in the distance, it was his howitzer position firing! It takes more than twenty seconds for the cannonball to fly here. He just felt a panic of fear.

He is not afraid of death, he is just worried that as soon as his shells start shooting, the conflict has already escalated, and the Germans who are properly prepared must have various methods to deal with them!

At this time, at the top of the church, apart from Major Zavrilov, and Akim Chikin, who was beaten up, there were only two Germans. At this time, they were earnestly using instruments to observe. On the other side, while using the microphone, he reported something to the rear.

When they came here, Akimchikin and others also understood Major Zavrilov's call, not to fight, the Germans were ready!

Look at them, they are leisurely giving directions for their artillery! Your howitzer position will soon be covered by the opponent's artillery fire!

The artillery fired artillery, looking very cool, in fact, they are more dangerous, because their opponent is the other's artillery!

In this era, towing artillery is the main thing. They withdraw from the battle, but they are not so fast. In front of a prepared opponent, it is easy to be covered by the opponent!

It's too late, it's too late!

In the sky, there was the scream of the unique Doppler that the cannonball pierced the sky, opened their eyes, they looked at the cannonball, and it had flown over!

"Boom!" The cannonball hit the bottom of the church. On the third floor, the entire church was shaking. However, the Germans continued to observe casually. To them, the cannonball was not terrible.

Moreover, the church shook a few times, and there was no other reaction. This shows that the entire church has been reinforced. Your own 152mm grenade may not cause much damage here!

As the first cannonball passed, the second, third, and one after another cannonballs flew to the entire fortress, exploding everywhere, and smoke rising everywhere.

Everything here can be seen clearly in the city of New Brest, which is three kilometers away. After putting down the telescope, Khrushchev was extremely excited: "This is the fate of fooling our Soviets, the Germans, trembling. Right!"

At this time, the people present didn't know, and only five minutes were left before they were shaking.

The preparations for the Gustav Cannon were still in progress. After the shells were loaded, the barrel began to erect slowly.

The power of this cannon is against the sky, but its operation is extremely cumbersome.

"Wind speed, 3, temperature, 6, temperature of the propellant package ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ an officer in charge of the scene is constantly preparing data.

It is not easy to hit a target of tens of kilometers. Its shooting table contains a lot of data. For example, it needs to accurately measure the temperature of the surrounding environment and measure the wind direction and wind speed on high ground. It also needs to launch each packet. Take medicine for temperature measurement!

This is a series of cumbersome processes. Generally speaking, the rate of fire of a large-caliber howitzer is every few minutes, while its rate of fire is 14 rounds a day!

This speed is good for an 800mm caliber cannon. Its fastest rate of fire can reach 1 shot in 15 minutes, but the interval between two shots is usually much longer.

Now, after 14 minutes of preparation, finally, the elevation angle of the cannon has been raised to a suitable height, and the position has been fixed in advance.

"Shoot Zhuyuan calibration, verify that it is correct, and request to fire." Wolfgang shouted loudly.

"Fire!" Bolt gave the order.

"Boom!" The whole earth trembled violently!
