It was so big that the if it landed on the light Panzer, it would certainly crush it injuring if not killing most if not all of the crew. Knowing full well that their Panzer was going too fast and had gained too much momentum to stop, "Kaz! Full speed foward!" Ulrica yelled in to her mic. Instead of the response she had hoped for, her order was met with "But we will ram the-" before her jackboot met with Kaz's back, pushing her foward in to the levers giving the tank more throttle and jerking the small Panzer in to the rear of the T-28, saving them from the falling tree.
The top of the hill was just roughly 200 meters away, if they could just get there before the Panzer III can catch up, they could use the weight to do some damage in addition to just firing their main gun at point-blank. That was what Iona was thinking, before she heard the thump of the pursuing tank hitting the rear of their tank. "What the?"
Sticking her out of the turret, she saw that two tanks were practically conjoined, to which her voice cracked with fear of being knocked out so early in the fight. "Nagisa! Step on throttle when I say so! Get us to the top of the hill, because if we don't, we're going to catch a 50 millimeter shell to the butt! Maiko, aim for the turret ring and then when we speed up, aim for the tracks with an HE shell!"
"Understood." Replied Nagisa and Maiko simultaneously, to which the gunner signaled for Fumiko to load an AP round into the chamber. Meanwhile, Nagisa prepared to the bring the tank's speed up, her hands gripping the levers tightly.
"Ute!" Shouted Iona, to which the gunner obliged by and pulled the trigger of the main gun, which would hopefully turn the Panzer III into a turretless tank destroyer. Even if it didn't jam it, it should have a decent chance of making their turret harder to to turn. After the tank fired it's first shot, the tank sped up considerably, while the main gun depressed down at it's maximum. It was when the T-28 was about 40 meters ahead that the gun fell in line with the tracks, so Maiko fired.
