Battle of the Third Reich

Colvin waited for the commander to decide whether to establish a support point on the spot or move on. At this time, the first-line officer's resilience is the most tested, but the platoon leader's combat experience is rich, and Colvin is relieved.

"The platoon leader ordered us to move on, and the third squad has already arrived." The deputy squadron carried the walkie-talkie and reported. Colvin nodded, and the platoon leader made the right decision as he expected.

If you are in a plain, or an open village or town, what you should do at this time is to withdraw the vanguard and regroup your troops, and then launch several trial attacks to verify the enemy's defense deployment and firepower. However, in such a narrow area at present, company-level platoon forces cannot be deployed at all, and the infantry squad level is the most suitable combat unit. Sometimes when there are more people, it will become cumbersome.

"Let's go get rid of that machine gun fire point." Kirwin pointed to the British fire point that was a hundred meters away and made his decision.

At this time, Max's machine gun had already destroyed an entire saddle-shaped drum, and the barrel had begun to get hot. Just when he replaced the new drum, the Bren machine gun started to shoot again. The bullet hit the surface of the brick steps continuously, raising a debris dust.

The British soldiers were obviously not prepared to give up resistance. They also knew that they had been targeted by the Germans. If there were no accidents, this would probably be their final burial place.

The Buren machine gun is a very good weapon, and it performs very well on the French battlefield. After the Battle of Dunkirk, the Germans seized tens of thousands of Bren machine guns. The Germans allocated these weapons to the second-tier troops. Finally, the feedback from these units was pretty good, except for the unanimous difficulty in replenishing ammunition. In addition, this machine gun has also gained a lot of popularity in the German army.

The British machine gunners skillfully fired several rounds of three-shot bursts at the Germans, even suppressing German activities in a short time. But everyone understands that this is just a flash in the pan. Thirty rounds of ammunition that depended on Brunn's tragedy could not last long.

Crouching in this machine gun's firepower is a British light machine gun group, a noncommissioned officer with two machine gun shooters, and two ammunition players equipped with short rifles. The former is responsible for the shooting of the machine gun, and the latter is responsible for filling the empty magazine with the loader. When the machine gun changes bullets. The ammunition player began to use Lee Enfield rifle for cover shooting.

At this time, the German machine gun was also loaded, and began a fierce counterattack. A locust-like tracer fired into the firepower point from the front. The ammunition player quickly retracted his head and squatted back behind the bunker.

Colvin threw a m39 smoke grenade in the direction of the British fire point. The red phosphorus-filled smoke bomb jumped twice on the ground and rolled back along the ramp for a period of time. Fortunately stuck on the roadside, and then began to emit pungent white smoke, this thick smoke covered the entire street surface more than ten seconds later. Colvin and the three riflemen put on the rubber gas masks that had already been prepared. Under the guidance of the squad leader, they swarmed out of the shelter and quickly crossed the street.

At this time, the British soldiers also found that the situation was not good, and they opened fire indiscriminately into the smoke. As the smoke gradually faded, the British soldiers were panic-stricken and found that the German soldiers had been divided into two routes, and the machine gun group was still in its original position. Several other soldiers crossed the street under the cover of the smoke and were walking across the street. Building towards itself.

Although the current position of these German soldiers happened to be in the shooting angle of the machine gun, the machine gunner stated that he could do nothing about it, because the German machine gun began to repeatedly shoot at them. Now he can't even get his head out, let alone aim at the shot.

The British missed the last chance to evacuate and their fronts were suppressed by German machine guns. The side was exposed to the firepower of the German infantry. They could no longer leave this bunker. The British soldiers could only quickly reach out and shoot blindly in the direction of the Germans, but with each visit, they felt closer and closer to death.

The German soldiers did not care about the bullets fired by the British. They carried their weapons and shot at themselves, and then quickly leaped to the next bunker. Sergeant Kelvin directed his men to shoot against the British bunker, while carefully observing the situation directly in front of the queue. When the enemy situation was unknown, he did not dare to rush into the infantry of the British machine gun fire point. Because according to his previous experience, in this kind of fire trap. The enemy will never lay out such a solitary forward firepower point, and the enemy commander will definitely arrange a shielded crossfire at the other end of the street. These British people currently appear to be weaker than he thought. Colvin firmly believed that the British army should have a large number of troops waiting in the rear.

Colvin felt that he was close enough, and he took his men and stopped in front of a small Victorian building. In theory, the smoke shielding time of the smoke grenades is two minutes. However, due to environmental reasons, it is difficult to achieve this standard in actual combat. Now that only a minute and a half have passed, the white smoke has begun to dissipate.

The German infantry had already passed through the smoke barrier they had set up. They took off their gas masks, and because they did not have time to fold them up again, they rolled up the rubber product and hung it on their belts. The rifleman squatted behind the wall of the flower bed beside the house, picked up the rifle and started shooting the side of the machine gun bunker. The British made a very low-level mistake. They did not stack sandbags high enough on the side of the fence.

Colvin turned around and looked back. He saw several infantry squads steadily moving along the ramp. Behind them, a tank No. 4 rolled one side track onto the sidewalk. The muzzle of the black hole was directly opposite. In your own direction.

Colvin almost finished the front section of this 400-meter steep slope, and now he is far above the surrounding area. He found that the view here is very good. If there is no side house blocking, he can feel it can be directly from here. See the railroad they crossed before.

A series of crisp gunshots were heard from time to time in the distance, and there were a few dull explosions. A community in the distance seemed to have a large-scale exchange of fire. I don’t know how many buildings were lit, Kerr Wen saw several dark and straight smoke columns.

Colvin can roughly tell what part of the sound is the movement of the weapon. "It seems that we are going to speed up." Colvin said to his riflemen.

At this time, the Germans had completed a series of tests they had planned, and those front-line commanders finally could not bear it, and began to launch the first all-round attack on the London City Defense. The London line of defense will collapse at the touch of a touch, which is something that all the marshals of the headquarters did not expect.

Snyder’s tank company is under the direct control of the e-cluster headquarters. If Bock was not clear-headed, he was almost used by Guderian to fill the Thames. Bock reminded Guderian that the Thames kind of was full of various A riverbed of garbage and debris, Snyder's No. 4 diving tank can't climb up if it goes down.

Bock intercepted the company and placed him on the southern front of the City of London. He believed that the British defense force in this direction was relatively strong, and this main armored force was needed as a breakthrough force. As a result, the diving tank company and the associated infantry company were thrown into this place.

"The distance is almost the same. Let me see how much we have." Kirwin crouched by the flower bed and pulled out two m24 from the grenade launcher's grenade bag. The remaining two riflemen also took out their grenades from their waists and boots and handed them to the sergeant.

Colvin put four m24 grenades in front of him, unscrewed the galvanized iron cover of the tail one by one, and pulled the fire rope with the white porcelain pendant out of the wooden handle. This was a plan that Colvin had long thought about, because he observed that there was no cover for the British shelter.

Colvin was very confident in his bombing technique, but at this time he did not dare to guarantee that it would be very accurate, so he threw four in a row towards the British bunker, preparing to use the advantage of quantity to compensate for the accuracy. defect. In the end, two grenades fell on the roadside, and the other two fell into the flower bed surrounded by the iron fence. The power of the German long-handled grenades was drawn. After four dull explosions, the street immediately reverberated There was a scream of grief.

Ask for monthly tickets, okay... a lot of brushes are on the monthly ticket list during this time, and even the blind can see which are real materials and which are to spend money to buy tickets. It is really funny and makes people a bit Little discouraged. However, I have a large group of resurrection book supporters, and those brushes are just rootless trees. In the end, depending on the true ability to speak, the scenery created by crooked doors and evil ways cannot be long. (To be continued.)
