Cannon Fire Arc

Wang Zhong arrived in an alternate world and became embroiled in this world's global war. What he gained was a cheat, akin to a real-time strategy game's overhead perspective, and he could even see through the eyes of his subordinates' units! So, he decisively started micro-managing, "Shift the machine gun position five centimeters to the left! Place the anti-tank cannon in the forest on the right!" Three years passed in this manner, and Wang Zhong looked at the marshal's baton in his hand, then at the double-headed eagle flag behind the emperor's envoy. "In my hometown, there's an old saying, 'Princes and generals, are they not sprung from the masses?' Envoy, do you know of it?"

Chapter 50 The Burning Wilderness

Wang Zhong shouted to number 67, "Hit that 170!"

Fearing the tank couldn't see where number 170 was, he also stretched his hand toward the direction of 170.

————

Tank number 170, with Commander Hoffman, suddenly changed the order, "Target that big tank! Don't be afraid, Ante people's tanks are all show, and we're loaded with armor-piercing shells! Take it down!"

To execute the order not to harm the horses, Hoffman had the loader load armor-piercing shells.

Although armor-piercing shells do contain explosive charges, their fuse wouldn't activate when hitting a person.

This design originated from the experience summarized by the Prosen Empire during the Castilian Civil War and the Carolingian campaign, where armor-piercing shells were to have the ability not to detonate when piercing some soft targets, allowing them to shoot through targets like wooden houses to strike enemy armor hidden behind.
