Chapter 156 The Longest Day (Part 1)
The clouds were covered with lead clouds, and the sound of engines roaring like thunder came from the clouds. It was the overwhelming air force of the Allies bombing the German coastal defense line.
However, Xu Nuo, who has read the relevant information, knew that the Allied pilots were afraid of blowing up their own people because the clouds were too thick and low, so they extended the scheduled bomb drop time backwards for thirty seconds. Then, the bombs all landed several kilometers behind the German coastal defense line. They had no effect on the front line positions at all.
The waves in the strait were surging, and the salty and fishy sea water flapped wave after wave and waves of landing craft. The waves flew past, and the white foam sea water poured down like heavy rain, so that the boat was covered in cold hearts.
The dark sky and the cold sea water were mixed together, and people kept vomiting, and the stench caused by the sea breeze instantly made people feel bad. The atmosphere inside the landing craft was depressing, and basically no one spoke.
The landing craft where Xu Nuo is located is equipped with a whole infantry squad. A sergeant stood at the bow and distributed seasickness medicine to the people on the landing craft. "Everyone listened! Our goal is the green area of Omaha Beach. After the hatch door is opened, try to disperse as much as possible. The goal is to capture the firepower points of the turrets and machine guns on the German defense line! Organize your weapons and see you on the beach!"
At this time, a shrill whistling sound came from the sky. The artillery soldiers of the defenders were firing fiercely with fierce artillery fire. New soldiers were afraid of artillery, and veterans were afraid of machine guns. But in fact, both artillery and machine guns were fatal things. Not to mention touching them, even if they were rubbed, it would be enough to kill them.
Xu Nuo, who was already soaked in the sea, leaned against the bulkhead of the landing craft, lowered his head slightly, and a look of worry flashed in his eyes.
The tonnage of the landing craft where Xu Nuo is located is very much like a toy in the waves. Although Xu Nuo will not be seasick and vomit, he is worried that if he is hit directly by a shell, even if he has a talisman, he will waste a precious opportunity. Things that can save lives at critical moments are the real artifacts.
Moreover, this is an extremely cruel battlefield, and it is no exaggeration to say that human life is like grass. The promised amulet can only be used twice, but what if he is hit three times? Can't he really die here?
Half an hour ago, Xu Nuo thought he was here for vacation and thought that the mission world was too simple and easy. But at this time he had already started cursing the ring in his heart. Not only was it not easy, but it was full of dangers everywhere. Even if he was really strong, he would not be able to fight the entire army alone!
Not to mention the modern army of machine guns, cannons, planes and tanks, even if the army in the era of cold weapons is large enough, it will make Xu Nuo kill him to death.
He raised his hand and pressed the helmet on his head, Xu Nuo's eyes swept over the narrow landing craft. He could see that most of the Allied soldiers around him were nervous, with pale faces and trembling bodies. This was war after all, and only one bullet could destroy a life. No one could be sure that he could go home alive.
"Hu" Xu Nuo took out a military kettle from behind his waist and drank a heavy mouthful of water. He slowly closed his eyes and began to calm down.
In danger, he was in danger and was in a state of panic and was in a state of panic. He was to get the lunch box in advance and leave the market. At this moment, since there was no other choice, the promise could only be to do his best.
As the distance continued to advance, the German bombardment density and firepower became increasingly dense. From 105 to 88 guns, they were firing fiercely at hundreds of landing crafts. Huge columns of water kept rising from the sea, and it was like a pot was boiling. From a distance, it looked like the landing craft was constantly passing through a forest composed of water columns.
The dense water column raised by the explosion of the shells poured a large amount of sea water on many landing crafts, and the soldiers seemed to be walking through the drizzle.
Although the sea water soars into the sky are all white, the threat it brings is no less than that of the dark forest.
"Boom!" After all, there is still a bad guy who will be accurately hit by the shell. A landing craft less than 100 meters on Xu Nuo's left hand was accurately hit by a shell with unknown caliber. With the small tonnage of the landing craft and the completely lack of protection, the result of being hit by the shell is that it will be blown up immediately.
As for the people on the boat, unless there are gods coming to rescue them, they will basically be unable to escape the fate of death.
"Thirty seconds to prepare!" The driver's roar resounded throughout the landing craft, and everyone's expressions became nervous. Some were so nervous that they vomited, some started to pray continuously, some were swallowing vigorously, and some were nervous and their bodies were trembling slightly.
I don’t know other ships, at least I didn’t see anyone on the ship where Xu Nuo was excited to start the war. The people here are all veterans, and they have all seen the cruelty and blood of the battlefield. Perhaps they were also passionate, but after they struggled on the battlefield, no one could regard war as a joke. This was a gamble at the cost of life.
On the battlefield, all beings are equal.
The non-commissioned officer standing at the hatch door began to quickly turn the valve and prepare to put it down, but Xu Nuo suddenly opened his eyes!
Although he is not old, Xu Nuo has experienced terrifying crises between life and death many times before. After repeated hardships, Xu Nuo now has a keen intuition that only veterans who survived on the battlefield can have. When the cabin door gradually opened, Xu Nuo keenly smelled the smell of danger!
Without hesitation, while slowly lowering the hatch door, Xu Nuo, who was in the back row, took a deep breath and suddenly stretched out his left hand and placed it on the edge of the bulkhead of the landing craft. He turned his legs and rolled over from the edge of the bulkhead into the sea water outside the landing craft.
While Xu Nuoshi turned over and left like lightning, the front cabin door of the landing craft was finally opened. However, before the soldiers could react, the deadly rain of bullets flew into the landing craft along the open cabin door with a harsh whistling sound.
The unlucky landing craft directly aimed its hatch door at the muzzle of a bunker fire point on the coast.
Crowded in the narrow landing craft, more than a dozen soldiers had no chance of hiding. In a short time, they were knocked down in a pool of blood by a series of bullets.
Military uniforms, guns, backpacks, and helmets are all useless. In front of bullets fired by military guns, human bodies are so fragile. Not to mention not, even if there is a bulletproof vest, it cannot resist the bullets fired by military machine guns.
The cabin door of the landing craft was facing the strong fortresses of the defenders, and among those fortresses were Hitler's chainsaws. These terrifying killing machines attacked all the enemies that appeared in front of them without hesitation. Judging from the super high firing rate of the Hitler's chainsaw, as long as they were targeted and covered, there was almost no possibility of escaping.
Xu Nuo, who fell into the sea, held his breath and began to paddle hard to swim towards the coast. The benefits of enjoying swimming in the swimming pool on weekdays are reflected, at least Xu Nuo can swim.
However, after all, this place is a turbulent sea, not a swimming pool with a constant water temperature and no odor. And Xu Nuo was not wearing swimming trunks at this time. He was full of all kinds of military equipment and thick military uniforms. In this case, it was simply deadly in the sea water.
Fortunately, Xu Nuo's mind was very calm. After finding something was wrong, he hurriedly took out a military dagger in the water to cut off all the straps of the equipment. After the burden was abandoned, Xu Nuo, who was much more relaxed, was finally able to leave this place where it had begun to turn red and had a bloody smell.
Xu Nuo, who had his head exposed from the sea, had nothing at this time. Everything except the military uniform was thrown into the sea, even his gun and helmet. Fortunately, Xu Nuo was in the cruel battlefield at this moment, with casualties and guns left by them everywhere.
Xu Nuo struggled to climb out of the sea water and came to the back of an anti-tank triangular cone. He took a steel helmet from the dead soldier beside him and put it on. Then he began to observe the battlefield calmly through the steel triangular cone.
At this time, at least hundreds or thousands of Allied troops had already rushed to the beach on this beachfront. But it was just the time for the tide to fall, and the defenders had arranged many anti-tank triangular cones on the coast. The Allied landing craft could not directly send the officers and soldiers to the bottom of the sea breakwater, so they had to put people down in front of the anti-tank triangular cone.
From the place where the landing craft was released to the defenders was a large area of soft and empty sand. There was no cover except some steel triangular cones. Many soldiers were directly exposed to the fierce firepower of their mobile phones, with heavy casualties.
Xu Nuo is powerless to do anything about the current battle situation. Even if he sees that the defenders' bunkers can be teleported directly, he is unable to change the entire battle situation. The defenders are not just a bunker, but also have a series of dense defensive positions. In this case, Xu Nuo goes in alone and knows whether he can come out alive.
Xu Nuo can only use two teleports in a short period of time, and then he will have to rest and recover for a long time. In this case, he naturally needs to use his abilities at the most critical moment.
Compared to combat, Xu Nuo was more concerned about his mission. Although he knew the background of the world, he also knew that Ryan was roughly near a small town. However, this was France and Normandy. Xu Nuo didn't know where that small town was. There was no navigation for him in this world.
Moreover, Xu Nuo was also worried that if he ran to find Ryan alone, he would not talk about the things on the road. Even if he had found Ryan, he could come back with him? And if something unexpected changed, he might not be able to find anyone at all.
Therefore, Xu Nuo is determined to follow Captain Miller to complete the task. In this way, you can go to find someone legitimately and not be treated as a deserter. At the same time, the risk of doing this is far less than acting alone. After all, if you are not familiar with the place, Xu Nuo can't even figure out the direction. To be continued.
