The decisive battle against the Third Reich

"Bang!" Qin Chuan pulled the trigger.

The bullet passed through a few weeds in front of the muzzle, causing a little ripple, and then flew into the chest of an American soldier who had just jumped out of the crater.

A bloody arrow shot out, and due to the inertia, he fell to the ground with a "pop" and could not get up again.

There was no reason why he chose this target, just because he was holding a rifle in his hand, an M1 Garand rifle with a sniper scope... The enemy sniper was always the top priority target.

This shot brought the suspended battle back to its climax. The German soldiers hiding in the position on the top of the mountain immediately fired their weapons, and bullets and artillery shells rained down on the American troops like raindrops:

The machine gun bullets brought up a bunch of mud flowers on the ground and went straight to several American machine gunners. With a scream, the three American machine gunners who were surrounded by a pile screamed and fell to the ground... These American machine gunners screamed... The machine gunners made a mistake. They should not mount the machine gun on a raised mound. Although this would give the machine gun a better shooting range (mounting the machine gun high can avoid the comrades charging ahead), but at the same time It will also make oneself "stand out from the crowd" an obvious goal.

Several 50MM mortar shells hit the back of a rock, and instantly a bunch of American soldiers were blown up into the sky.

These American soldiers made a mistake. They should not think that they are safe behind rocks. Although bullets cannot penetrate rocks, they are the favorite targets of mortars. Sometimes mortars have even tried it before the war. The shooting marks the various elements behind the stone.

The correct approach should be... to find a place to dig a hole with a sapper and hide yourself like everyone else.

A row of grenades were thrown down, and several American soldiers who were in front were immediately blown to pieces.

The courage of these US soldiers is commendable. There are not many people in the US military who dare to charge, but it does not mean that they can do so... The first 50 meters of the defense line is the enemy's grenade red line area. Without the cooperation of comrades or Launching a group charge, a few people rushing into this area is basically looking for death, because they will withstand blows from almost all enemy equipment such as rifles, machine guns, submachine guns, grenades and even pistols.

Qin Chuan shot bullets to kill his opponents while observing the reactions of these American soldiers on the battlefield... At this time, he was already a little numb to the enemies who fell under his hands, although they were also alive, although they were also They had no grudges against him. Although they still had painful despair in their eyes at the moment they fell, in Qin Chuan's eyes, they just lost a threat, and at the same time, his sniper count increased.

Judging from this battle, Qin Chuan can roughly estimate the combat effectiveness of the unit in front of him.

Then Qin Chuan came to the conclusion that they were better at fighting than the British... This was not only because the British army had more veterans, but also because the British army's rifles had a longer range.

As for the US military in front of them, without artillery, tanks or even sufficient ammunition, they had no advantage at all.

Sure enough, after a while, there were only screams in front of the position, and a few U.S. soldiers could be faintly heard calling for reinforcements on the walkie-talkies... The surviving U.S. troops were hiding in the individual bunkers they had built and could not move. I can't go up or down.

The right choice is to stay where they are and wait patiently. After dark, they can crawl back along the same path, and no one can do anything to them by then.

But these new recruits obviously did not have this patience. Fear made them eager to leave this place, so they tried to crawl back from the recess... But the German army was at a high place, and the firepower was carefully arranged, and there were basically no blind spots. So with several "bang bang" gunshots, American soldiers were shot to death on the ground one after another.

Then, the surviving American soldiers couldn't bear it anymore. They shouted and jumped out of the hiding place and ran away, but it was still to no avail. After a burst of gunfire, the American soldiers were shot down one by one like targets. fall.

"God!" Major General Allen realized how stupid he was at this time. He actually wanted to use a company to occupy this high ground. However, this company was completely annihilated by the enemy in front of the high ground in just a few minutes.

"General!" the staff shouted: "What should we do? There are many wounded on the high ground!"

"What else can we do?!" Allen said angrily: "Should we send another company up to die?"

Major General Allen really couldn't do anything about this. In fact, no one could do anything about this situation, because more troops going up meant more casualties.

However, at this moment, a loudspeaker was heard shouting from the German high ground: "Come up and move your wounded back, Americans, as long as you don't bring weapons, we won't shoot!"

Major General Allen was stunned when he heard this. The first thing that came to his mind was whether this could be a German trap.

"General!" Otto looked at Major General Allen.

After thinking about it, Major General Allen nodded and said: "Send the rescue team up without weapons!"

The Americans still had a spirit of adventure. Although their feet were shaking with nervousness, they still carried stretchers up one by one. They carried the wounded back and forth, and when they were done, they simply carried down the bodies as well.

"Why are they allowed to carry the wounded and corpses?" Kuhn couldn't help but ask.

There is no such mercy on the North African battlefield. They often use wounded enemies to attract enemies who come for rescue, and then kill them one after another in front of their positions.

"They are new recruits!" Qin Chuan replied: "The tragic situation of those new soldiers and their corpses will serve as a warning to them!"

Sure enough, the US military did not dare to attack again after that.

Major General Allen's report to Patton was: "The enemy has at least one regiment standing in front of us. They occupy difficult terrain. We need reinforcements from tanks, artillery and aircraft. If we just charge up like this... it will be the same. To commit suicide!”

Allen's words made Patton very angry: "Did you know? The 3rd Infantry Division was also blocked by the enemy, but they were still advancing. So far, they have taken down two lines of enemy defense, and the British have also been blocked. in this way!"

"We are facing a different enemy!" Major General Allen said.

"Oh, really?" Patton replied, "And you attack with just one company and then decide you can't take the high ground?"

Major General Allen was speechless.

After thinking about it, Major General Allen replied: "I will organize another attack in the evening, General!"

In fact, Major General Allen was right. The Germans planned a planned retreat on the two flanks of defense, but the US 1st Infantry Division in the middle was not allowed to take a step back.
