Chapter 705 Chrome Molybdenum Steel Armor

Mannahim defense line.

When the Soviets left behind the wreckage of the KV-1 tank and retreated, the defense line fell into temporary calm in the past few days, and the large-scale attack did not continue. However, everyone knows that the Soviets must have been making temporary adjustments. With the end of the adjustment of the Soviets, a war will surely break out again.

After experiencing the last battle, the Finnish army has gradually adapted. The Soviet Union looked aggressive and extremely powerful, but in fact, the Soviets' tactics have not improved much. They are still stuck in the combat of the older generation. Moreover, their tanks are not very powerful. Their anti-tank guns can destroy the other side!

Pattifo sat next to his anti-tank gun, wrapping cigarettes as if nothing had happened. Because the logistics supply mainly transports ammunition, this kind of daily necessity could not be transported. Fortunately Pattifo brought some tobacco leaves himself. When he really smoked them, he would roll the tobacco leaves with paper, which tasted pretty good.

The sun hangs obliquely in the sky. This is a high-latitude area and there will never be a sun above the head. At the same time, as time goes by, it has begun to cool down here, especially at night, when you have to cover yourself with a thick quilt to warm up when you sleep.

After rolling it up, Pattifo took a deep breath. When the smell of cigarettes entered his lungs, the feeling made people feel like they were in the sky.

Although smoking is harmful to health in the doctor's opinion, on the battlefield, you will die at any time and die in the next moment. Who cares about the damn smoking being harmful to health?

It's great to be alive!

Only when smoking can Pattyfo have a moment of tranquility, and his heart is entangled by something.

Research from the rear shows that it was a lucky time for us to kill the Soviet tanks last time. We were just on the verge of being able to destroy the opponent. However, in the past few days, the Soviets have not launched an attack, so we must be improving their tanks. By the next attack, we may not be able to penetrate it!

what to do?

The instructions given above are also very simple. As a lightweight anti-tank gun, they can push this anti-tank gun around the side of the Soviets. They cannot be knocked off the front, and there is no problem with the side and back, right?

If our own side has self-propelled anti-tank guns, then some people say that the problem is that what the infantry behind the Soviets do now is pulling. If you push it like this, what are the infantry behind the Soviets doing?

Just as the smoke was in its last mouthful, Pattifo suddenly heard the unique whistle of the shells coming from afar and the air friction. With rich experience, he immediately shouted: "Cover the artillery fire, hurry up, enter the bunker!"

"Boom, boom!" On the opposite side, the Soviets' attack began again!

Compared with the last time, the Soviets' preparations this time were quite sufficient!

Artillery of all kinds of caliber fired together here! The Soviet Union has always been artilleryism. Last time, the firepower was just not transported, so they launched a hurry to attack. This time, they used thousands of cannons!

The entire position was full of explosions, and soon, it became mottled and broken. The ground was trembling, and the people hiding in the bunker were trembling.

The Soviets were indeed powerful enough! The artillery fire had been covered for more than ten minutes, and the entire position seemed to have been plowed, but there was still no sign of stopping!

"Wait! It will probably take more than ten minutes to cover the artillery fire." Pattifo said calmly again. At this time, the battle was about to begin, and he was calm. As a warrior, it was their glory to die on the battlefield!

"Boom!" A large-caliber shell fell around their bunker. In an instant, the roof of the bunker fell down and fell on Pattifo's body. He patted the mud and continued to smoke.

After more than ten minutes, the artillery fire finally stopped.

"The Soviets are coming!" The observation whistle left outside shouted loudly. When they heard this sound, everyone came out of the bunker where they were.

When he ran to his position, Pattifo was stunned. His 50mm anti-tank gun was already twisted and a large-caliber grenade hit the gun body!

No need to fire. In this case, the anti-tank gun was broken! Looking at the gunners behind him carrying ammunition boxes, Pattifo was in a bad mood.

The Soviets obviously came prepared for artillery fire coverage this time. One of the important reasons was that they wanted to destroy the positions of these anti-tank guns!

The offensive formation this time is the same as last time, with the kv-1 tank being the leader, but this kv-1 tank is different from the last time.

When he learned that the anti-tank guns on the opposite side could destroy their own tanks, Kojing in the rear urgently modified the tank's manufacturing process.

In the past, the armor used by the kv-1 tank was just ordinary armored steel. It was discovered that it could be destroyed by the opponent's anti-tank guns. The vibration of the Soviet high-level officials was conceivable.

At this time, we can't hide it, and we don't have to compromise on costs! Leningrad Locomotive Factory urgently produced a batch of kv-1 tanks using chromium-molybdenum steel.

Chromium is a precious metal. Using this metal to make armored steel is quite wasteful, but the Soviets can afford it. After all, the largest chromium ore in the world is in Kazakhstan.

It was precisely to wait for these emergency production tanks and to wait for more artillery that they waited impatiently for a few days. You must know that according to Stalin's opinion, it would be a week to advance to the Finnish capital, allowing the whole world to see the style of the Soviet Red Army.

Now, with the newly built kv-1 tank in place, another attack has begun.

The Sixth Heavy Tank Brigade of the Soviet Union, the commander of the brigade, Sergei, sat in the tank that still had a fresh smell of machinery, looking at the Finnish defense line in front.

Last time, our own tank was penetrated, causing the tank troops to eventually retreat. This time, their tanks have been improved to block the attack of the opponent's anti-tank gun?

They cannot retreat. The tank soldiers who retreated last time were all captured. As the vanguard of the entire army, they can only attack and attack!

The artillery fire coverage was very successful. Now, looking at it, the opponent seemed to have been completely defeated.

At the same time, with the artillery fire, the minefield buried by the opponent was also detonated, so there is no need to worry about the threat of landmines.

In the field of vision, the Finns' defense gradually became clear. Then, Sergei was excited to see some tanks drilled out from the defense line opposite.
