"What a familiar voice..." Levsky was startled for a moment. Hearing the sound of some kind of engine coming from the village behind him, he slowly put down the engineer shovel in his hand and straightened up, looking at the dust coming from behind the wooden building.
He couldn't help but open his mouth: "That...that's..."
Some kind of high-power engine roared heavily, and the violent sound instantly spread throughout the small village. As a certain cylinder slowly emerged from the corner, Levsky suddenly had a certain look on his face.
A kind of horror, but then a burst of ecstasy broke out: "That's...T72 main battle tank?!"
As a member of the Russian Armored Group, especially as a professional tank gunner, I am as familiar with this most classic and most produced tank in the former Soviet Union as my own relatives.
Especially the roar that was unique to the Soviet engine made him slowly take a few steps forward, watching the huge car body gradually approaching. The heavy car body made the hard tracks crush the ground, and the small town was merged.
The not-so-solid soil was lifted up entirely, revealing two long traces behind it.
T72 main battle tank, origin of the former Soviet Union/Russian Federation.
It was officially developed in the Soviet Union in 1967 and was fully popularized by the Soviet Red Army in 1977. It is simple to manufacture, cost-effective and stable, and has extremely high reliability in low-intensity conflict operations.
It has 3 members, adopts composite armor, has a length of 6.95 meters (including the barrel of 9.53 meters), a width of 3.36 meters, a height of 2.9 meters, and a weight of 46.5 tons.
The main weapon is a "2A46" 125mm smoothbore cannon, and the auxiliary weapons are a "PKT" 7.62mm tank machine gun and an HCB "Rock" 12.7mm heavy machine gun.
The engine is a 12-cylinder V-46 engine with a power of 780 horsepower, a horsepower-to-weight ratio of 18.6 horsepower/ton, a torsion bar suspension system, a maximum speed of 80 kilometers/hour, and a maximum stroke of 450 kilometers.
Levsky quickly reported a series of data about the T72 main battle tank with a certain excitement on his face. Looking at Edward who slowly appeared behind the tank, he couldn't help but said in surprise: "Sir, I really
I didn’t expect that this big guy would come to support me!”
"Of course, we also need the necessary armor strength!"
Looking at Levski's extremely excited facial expression, Edward smiled and patted the hard armor of the T72 main battle tank beside him. The cold and hard feeling even made his hands numb slightly, but he
Don't care.
With just a few hundred millimeters of composite armor, even the DX heavy machine gun suspended armor may not be able to penetrate it. Even if the four heavy machine guns have powerful firepower, that depends on who the enemy is.
Even though the T72 main battle tank is an early representative of the third generation of tanks and has been outdated for decades due to various reasons, in some low-intensity conflict wars, the results achieved are still extremely powerful!
"With those disgusting DX expeditionary forces, I don't think they have the ability to fight against the T72 main battle tank."
Edward licked the corner of his mouth confidently. Those guys didn't seem to have any anti-armor weapons. Instead, they mostly had infantry suppressive weapons such as heavy machine guns. Although they had strong deterrent and combat effectiveness against infantry, for armored targets,
But it looked so pale and weak.
Especially the 125mm smoothbore cannon. If those DX suspended armors appear within the effective range of the T72 main battle tank of up to 2000m, they will be bombarded by the tank gun almost instantly.
"Of course, with just one tank, our defense can be said to have tripled!"
Levsky had a smile on his face, and the soldiers around him gradually gathered to look at the T72 main battle tank. This type of tank was no stranger to them. They had even been ordered to do so during the war in the game.
This type of tank has destroyed the enemy.
"But General, I still advise you to save fuel and artillery shells." Jessica came up from behind, followed by twenty similarly armed marines. She couldn't help but remind you: "The T72 main battle tank is
The supplies needed are a lot of points."
"Oh, of course!"
Edward nodded, but saving a full 30,000 points to buy a T72 main battle tank was still an extremely cost-effective thing for him, especially since he still had at least 50,000 points left, which made him even more worried.
There is a bottom.
"However, I really need to save some..." Thinking about the artillery shells I saw in the arms bar before, just an armor-piercing shell cost 200 points per shot. If you waste a few rounds, then it will be
Even if you hit the enemy, you can't go back to the original state!
Of course, this T72 main battle tank is more of a deterrent. For the DX expeditionary force that lacks effective anti-tank means, whether it is DX heavy machine gun suspended armor or DX infantry, it is the most direct
of shock.
With the powerful tank main gun, 7.62mm and 12.7mm tank heavy machine guns, and relying on the completed village defenses, even an entire mechanized infantry regiment cannot easily capture this place without paying a bloody price.
"But we still need to dig a separate air raid shelter for this T72 main battle tank."
Levsky frowned, looking at the huge body and the thick and long barrel, he couldn't help but lick the corners of his mouth slightly, and put down the excitement in his heart: "If the enemy has an air force, then our tanks cannot be like this
Appear in the clearing."
"A separate air raid shelter?" Edward nodded, looked at the two squads of twenty marines behind him, and said with great confidence: "Two squads of twenty marines, we are not short of manpower now."
The addition of these twenty marines can directly increase the efficiency of Xiaocun's military transformation by about half. After all, the more manpower there is for fortress transformation, the faster the construction of surface positions will be.
Especially with the unique system rules, the pile of concrete walls and fortresses that originally took half a year to be fully formed can be completed in about a month or even less, almost reducing the construction time by more than two-thirds!
"Then let everyone work hard!"
Edward touched the stubble on his chin and looked at the road a few miles away from the small village. Although there were many rolling hills blocking his view, Edward still did not dare to be careless.
All Alpha snipers are on guard around the small village, especially in the direction of the road. Every time there is any unusual movement, they will report it to Edward. The small village has not been completely renovated, and now there are only a few rough trenches. If there is a real fight, I'm afraid.
It's not easy.
"Deploy the machine gun position first!"
Kerry quickly patrolled the small village with an AKS-74u submachine gun, commanding the excavator to dig two-meter-deep trenches into the ground. In particular, machine gun firing positions every few meters were temporarily built with stones.
Several Marines were already standing guard in the trench with G3-A4 assault rifles, watching the scene in front of them vigilantly, not daring to let go of any suspicious targets, because Edward's order to them was that if the target was found to be hostile,
Action, shooting to kill is allowed!
The first goal of everything is to transform the small village into a fortress. Any enemy who attempts to attack the small village will encounter resolute resistance and counterattack by Edward. Especially after having the T72 main battle tank, Edward is really not afraid of many enemies.
.
Sitting quietly on a chair somewhere in the trench, Edward touched his chin with regret. If in that town full of virus-infected bodies, there was a big killer like the T72 main battle tank, it would really be a bonus.
Reaper.
Not to mention the 125mm smoothbore cannon, even the 7.62mm and 12.7mm heavy machine guns as auxiliary weapons on the tank can easily smash any virus-infected body that tries to get close to pieces!
But Edward only regretted it for a moment. The mission of the town had been completed. Although it was still a little hazy, as if it was caught in some kind of political struggle, Edward still missed that place. If he was asked to choose a mission location,
He will still choose that.
Clearing an entire town of virus-infected bodies, whether primary, intermediate or advanced, will give Edward at least two million points, and these points are enough for Edward to exchange for a sophisticated armored unit, and there is still some leftover!
You must know that even an armored force composed entirely of T72 main battle tanks and ordinary infantry fighting vehicles is still powerful to some enemies.
Although it may not have much power against mechanical beings like Transformers, it is still possible for the NS robot forces in the Alaskan Mountains to fight against each other and even win a local war!
"But now we still need to strengthen the defense of the small village to avoid enemy attacks on the road."
Edward touched his chin and looked at a homemade military map spread out on the wall in front of him. Highways, small villages, and the city of Los Angeles were all connected in a line, and the colors that symbolized the control of his power only varied within a few miles of the small village.
Especially the DX Expeditionary Force that often appeared on the highway made Edward feel a lot more dangerous, because according to Liukov's report, most of these DX Expeditionary Force troops were heading directly to Los Angeles, as if they were going to Los Angeles.
For general support.
However, during this period, there was also the intention to spread to both sides of the highway.
Looking at the strategic map on the wall, although it can be roughly distinguished, it is only the terrain around the small village. As for the city of Los Angeles, it has already been a mess. I don't know what is going on.
However, the decrease in the frequency of artillery still reminded Edward that the war in Los Angeles was gradually entering a low stage. In some respects, his war had just begun.
"I hope I can persist for half a month, so that all my basic fortifications can be completed!"
Sighing slightly, watching the excavators outside digging additional trenches and prototypes of bunkers, Edward couldn't help but stand up and looked at the blue sky with some inexplicable worries: "What exactly is the DX Expeditionary Force?" (Unfinished)
