Chapter 528: Landing the Two-in-One Chapter(1/2)

With a 'clang~' sound, a huge metal impact came from dozens of meters away, awakening Hu Biao from his sleepiness.

In the past, this guy wasted a lot of saliva, which was a matter of initial arrangement for the rookies.

Then for the rest of the time, I stood up like a big beast and started to fall asleep in the landing craft that kept rising and falling violently, like a large shaker.

There are many old birds in the team who have the same situation.

Faced with the battle after several hours, these guys have become accustomed to keeping their bodies as much as possible and keeping more physical energy and energy.

Therefore, whether it is an old bird in the team can be easily distinguished from such a detail.

Of course, even if the old birds fell asleep, they could not have entered deep sleep under the current circumstances; when he suddenly heard a loud impact at the beginning from a not far away in his ear.

And after the impact occurred, there were still a large number of soldiers in the subsequent time, and various accents of screams sounded.

After Hu Biao reacted, he thought the battle had begun and immediately cheered up.

However, after he squeezed away the people around him and jumped up and climbed onto the fence on one side of the landing craft, he realized that things were not what he thought.

Looking towards the bow of the boat, they still couldn't see the legendary Omaha Beach in the distance.

The sound of impact and exclamations came simply because in the bad sea environment, the two landing craft directly collided with each other due to the negligence of the pilots.

Then, with this fierce impact and not gentle at all, these two factors combined.

After the two landing craft that collided with each other, a huge hole was broken on the hull, the hull immediately capsized and water began to flow.

Dozens of unlucky soldiers fell into the cold water of the English Channel.

Because after preparing to land, they still have to fight fiercely with the German sticks, these people are carrying heavy weapons and ammunition.

Even in order to build the fortifications of the beachhead, many people did not forget to bring the 1.33 kilogram-weight engineer shovel on their backpacks behind them.

Including weapons and ammunition, basically every soldier's weight is up to the standard 33 kilograms.

So after falling into the water, a very small number of lucky people urgently grabbed the rescue items thrown from the surrounding landing craft before sinking.

For example, some lifebuoys and ropes thrown by the soldiers around him, which was the luck of escaping.

But such lucky people are a minority after all. After more soldiers fell into the water, they soon fell like a brick, and their bodies quickly sank into the deep sea.

During the entire period of sinking, they instinctively made a call for help in their mouths in amidst their huge panic.

But the only result of doing this is that their mouths are filled with sea water in a faster time, which instead accelerates their own death process.

Such a tragic scene is just like that for the old birds.

After Tingtian poked his head out and saw the situation clearly, he muttered in his mouth:

"Damn it! These soldiers have such bad luck. There are so many landing crafts, but they are the only ones who collided with each other. Brother Jesus doesn't like them very much."

After yelling in his mouth, these guys also learned from each other's lessons.

First, I put down the heavy DIY shield in my hand and took off the thick bulletproof insertion board on my body to avoid following in the footsteps of those soldiers.

Then, I continued to doze off, dazed and smoked again.

But for the rookies, such a tragic scene suddenly cast a deep shadow on their hearts.

Just kidding! How many people have seen it with their own eyes in the modern plane, such a scene where dozens of people are gone in an instant.

With a huge shock in his heart, the company commander, the village director, had a serious face; he forced himself to unbutton his shirt that had been so wet on his chest.

He solemnly reminded his eldest son, namely Vajra:

"You must be smarter later. Just follow me in action, otherwise you won't know why you die."

After hearing this, King Kong nodded extremely seriously.

Although the other novices did not communicate with each other like this, the solemn expression on their faces was so strong.

Because of Hu Biao's introductions, their ambitions that spread like wild grasses, could be said to have quickly dissipated under such stimulation.

But after a while, they knew something:

Compared with the tragic scenes in real battles, such a collision accident during a voyage and the death of twenty or thirty people, it is not even an appetizer...

When the horizon was shining, the landing ground of Ohamma Beach finally appeared in front of many hard-working infantrymen on the Allied side.

As described in the data, this is a beach with a length of about 6.4 kilometers.

The coastline is mostly more than 30 meters high and is extremely steep cliffs. Only a few passages can penetrate through these cliffs into the interior of the continent.

There is no doubt that Omaha Beach can definitely be regarded as a very easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Hu Biao and the others actually knew more about the situation than the current Allied Command. They learned about it by urgently checking the information when they came here.

The information shows that the troops guarding Omaha are.

It is not a miscellaneous army in terms of German sticks at all, nor is it the elderly, weak, sick and disabled who have no combat effectiveness.

Instead, in the German National Defense Forces, they were considered an elite unit of the 352nd Division, one of which was a regiment; not long ago, they had secretly taken over the defense line of this beach under the mobilization of the desert fox.

With the combat qualities of these people, the advantages of the terrain of Omaha Beach, and the Atlantic fortifications built in the early stage.

Even though the so-called Atlantic fortifications have not been completely completed, with some of the completed fortifications, the 352nd Division of Depu still has amazing combat power.

And at the moment when the Allied maritime army arrived at the target sea area, a fierce battle immediately took place.

First of all, with the escort fleet set out with a large number of landing craft, the number of large caliber naval guns on their ships was the first to be put into battle.

They all faced the location of Omaha Beach, thrusting their huge hulls one by one, and raised their thick cannon tubes one by one.

He started to use the shells of the large caliber naval guns to fire wildly at the coastline.

Often, every volley, due to the huge recoil, will cause these heavy steel bumps to instantly move out of a long distance toward the side.

So for the first time in his life, the Zhongzhou team, who saw the large fleet's artillery fire, looked a little stunned.

Unfortunately, because the Allied fleet was afraid of the large number of mines arranged in advance by the Germans in the waters in front of Omaha Beach.

More importantly, in the observations after the air force reconnaissance plane flew over, a large number of 155mm caliber shore defense guns were found on the position.

I am a little worried that when I get too close, I will be hit by the power of the shore defense cannon and cause serious damage.

For a moment, I didn't dare to get too close to the beach and open fire.

This led to such artillery fire support. It seemed like a scene of collapse and cracking in the sky, but it was not very effective in reality.

The artillery fire of the fleet is an order to start a war for the Allied landing forces.

In the roaring artillery fire, in the headsets of walkie-talks, or under the commands delivered by flags and iron whistles; in the fire support of the escort fleet, many landing craft rushed towards the beach like ants.

As these landing craft are getting closer and closer to the beach.

In the initial bombardment of the Allied naval guns, it could be said that there was no reaction at all, and it seemed that there was not even a defender on the Omaha Beach defense line.

Without warning, countless light and heavy fire points were resurrected.

The amazing amount of machine gun firepower enveloped the landing craft, and artillery of large and small caliber set off huge water columns in the sea.

All the situations represent that a hellish battle officially begins.

It was also at this moment that Hu Biao yelled out:

"Fight preparation! All the front row personnel quickly put on bulletproof inserts and raised their shields to block the bullets. While we, the noble Chief Derby of D.C., knew that these turtle shells were easy to use.

For a company leader without such a turtle shell, it is best not to hang up so easily.

The people in the back row picked up their weapons and prepared to get off the boat in order. Remember to move faster when you are all old, don’t be too slow to force me to kick your ass.”

Under such a sentence, after the old birds thought of something, they immediately burst into laughter.

Such a relaxed mentality as if it were an outing, it actually successfully relieved the tension in the rookies.

Under Hu Biao's order, they took off the Garland semi-automatic rifles from behind and prepared to follow the previous arrangements to follow the old birds who were said to be more kind.

It can even be said that the rookies still have a little longing for the next battle.

I plan to show off my team debut.

For example: King Kong looked at the position in front of him with a concealed look. After picking up the rifle, he was a little eager to try, and there was no nervous look on his face.

Silently in my heart, I said to myself as if I cheered up:

"Come on Yang Tian, ​​you can't be embarrassed in front of the old man, otherwise after you go back, you will be scolded by him.

By the way! I have to watch him a little later, and I have to pull him up at the critical moment; really, I am all old, why are they still so competitive?"

At the same time, the company commander was thinking:

"What a great opportunity! When I was a child, whenever I talked about beating monkeys, that kid was cute. I don't know when it started, but this kid changed and always thought I was bragging?

Now that I have to let him know that awesomeness is not a bragging, trains are not a push, and he is still a little tender when it comes to war.

By the way! This kid is very irritable when he is young, so he has to watch him a little later."

In this way, under the various thoughts of the rookies,

The landing craft they were on suddenly stopped.

****

When the landing craft suddenly stopped, when Hu Biao and others looked back, they could see a driver poking his head out and shouting at them at the top of their voice:
To be continued...
