On the evening of June 4, the weather was bad, but the big meal was coming!

There was no limited meal, and there was no limit to ice cream. At this time, even everyone knew that it was that night.

【If there was a plate of dumplings... that would be great.】

Looking at this unlimited meal, Zheng Yingqi muttered in his heart, but this wish is destined to be difficult to realize - he has been entering this plot for two years, and now he is crazy about having a bite of Chinese food, but this can only be a luxury.

After wandering among the crowd, Zheng Yingqi had a great time eating - very satisfied. Anyway, today is definitely not the D-day in Normandy. What if you eat too much?

Sure enough, as he thought, when the army was overcrowded and was about to board the plane, he received a notice: the action was postponed.

"It seems that the officials, the men think that the weather is not suitable for us to go out tonight." Gordon said with a smile, but he seemed very disappointed. He was ready to teach the Germans a lesson. Unexpectedly, at the critical moment - he couldn't take off his pants.

"Let's keep going to party tonight," Lieutenant Mihan said with a smile. "The logistics have prepared a movie for us, and we'll go see the movie."

Everyone in the E Company cheered. It was actually a good thing to watch a movie after eating and drinking well. The only pity was that it was such a wonderful thing to watch a movie without a girl, which was really a shame!

Not everyone chose to go to the movies. Morrie and Lipton, who were company combat officers, did not go. They stayed in the tent all night - discussing the situation that might arise during the battle and how to deal with it.

Although the action on June 4 was gone, the next afternoon, the wind gradually stopped - although there was no order prepared, everyone began to prepare, and some people in the E Company, even learned Indians, began to apply on their faces.

"This can hide your face! Everyone can try it?"

Faced with this recommendation, the people of E Company actively tried it. After Zheng Yingqi thought about it, he explained the skills of camouflage painting. Under Zheng Yingqi's guidance, everyone in E Company turned into camouflage faces. Even the company commander Mi Han and others chose to paint their faces - in this way, it would be easier for them to identify.

I don’t know who heard a method from British paratroopers at this time. After just accepting Zheng Yingqi’s new style of painting his face, this method began to become popular in E-company - this method is leg bags.

The so-called leg bag is to prepare a bag containing ammunition, radio, triangular brackets of machine guns, and medical equipment. Some people even disassemble the submachine guns into parts and put them into the leg bag. The leg bag is tied to the parachute with a six or seven-meter rope. Before parachute jumping, throw the leg bag out. After parachute opening the parachute, the parachute will be responsible for the weight of these leg bags - the six or seven-meter rope will land before the parachute, and it will be right in front of them!

Is it really him a golden idea that is extremely talented!

Then, everyone in the E Company used the leg bags - the logistics preparation was very complete, and the sufficient leg bags were enough for everyone to use.

Zheng Yingqi was stunned.

He remembered what the troops had said before - when the Normandy landed, the U.S. paratroopers were cheated by their legs.

"Jacob, you didn't prepare a leg bag?" Gordon excitedly handed Zheng Yingqi a huge leg bag, and said in a show-off tone: "I'll get one extra for you in the logistics, give it to you, stuff your extra equipment into it!"

Zheng Yingqi shook her head and did not accept Gordon's kindness, but decided to go to Winters to reflect on the situation.

"Godon, what's going on with Jacob?"

"God only knows." Gordon shrugged, and he didn't know what Jacob was doing.

When Zheng Yingqi found Winters, Winters had just finished preparing his leg bag and was having the final communication with the company commander Lieutenant Mihan before boarding. Zheng Yingqi ran over, interrupted the communication between the two and said, "Sir, I want to know if the leg bag method is a mandatory requirement above?"

"No, it was the idea that the British paratroopers came up with. Jacob, this idea is good and can reduce our load. We can carry more ammunition and explosives. You can try it." Winters said excitedly - the paratroopers always feel that they don't have enough ammunition, and the appearance of the leg bag is really urgent!

"But we have never used leg bags. What if there is a problem in the airborne? I suggest we don't use this thing. After all, we don't try it often. If something goes wrong, it's a big problem!"

Company Commander Mihan said humorously at this time: "No, the British paratroopers have already made a try for us. Jacob, this is a good idea and a good way. I think you should accept it - just like we accepted you taught us to draw faces."

"But……"

"Okay, Jacob, go and prepare quickly." Winters signaled Zheng Yingqi to leave. Zheng Yingqi had no choice but to find a way to influence the other people on the plane he was on.

But everyone thinks that Zheng Yingqi is making a big deal, and no one is willing to abandon such a convenient way - no one is willing to be that fool!

At 9:00, I started to board the plane.

Before Company E started boarding, Lieutenant Mihan emphasized in Company E's queue: "Young men, please remember our request after landing! Don't take prisoners! Don't take prisoners! Don't take prisoners! Only after we have established a shelter site will the captives be allowed to be taken in! Do you understand?"

This is an order that senior officials will never give in black and white, but this is obviously the meaning of the senior officials.

"I understand, sir!" Everyone in E-soft answered loudly.

"After landing, remember to use the weapon in your hand to tell Hitler - be careful! We are here!" Mihan said humorously, everyone was amused and laughed. After the laughter subsided, Mihan shouted the slogan of the 506th regiment:

"Korax!"

In Indian language, this sentence is "Do it yourself! It's not helpful!", and this is exactly the real situation of the paratroopers.

"Korax!"

Everyone in the E Company shouted, and then the entire 2nd Battalion shouted this slogan, and then the entire 506th Regiment - the sounds were heard one after another on the airport, like the heroic battle song before going out.

Finally, with Mihan's order, the entire E Company began to board the plane - every 18 people they boarded a C-47 transport plane, and the planes spread across the airport kept swallowing one paratrooper after another. Soon, all the fully armed paratroopers disappeared into the airport, and the entire airport left only a huge amount of logistics and farewell personnel.

"Hey, guess who did I see? Captain Sobel! I saw Captain Sobel! He was in the crowd!" Lieutenant Officer Velsh said loudly in the cabin: "He must have come to see us off!"

Wersh was an officer who later joined the E Company. He had not experienced too long Sober's era and had no idea of ​​Sober's image and weight in the hearts of the soldiers. When they abandoned Sober, Sober took the initiative to leave and became a thorn that many people could not get away from. So after hearing Wersh's words, the atmosphere in the plane solidified and everyone was silent.

If they had not forced Sobel away, would Sobel take them to the war at this time?

At 23:10, the plane slowly began to accelerate on the runway, and after the speed reached the critical point, it began to climb.

This airborne was just like the previous rehearsal. Three planes formed an inverted V group, and more groups formed a larger inverted V.

The plane completed the formation in the air and then set off towards the destination - 13,400 US airborne troops rushed towards Europe, which was trembling under Hitler's control. They would be the vanguards in breaking Hitler's control over Europe.

On the plane where Zheng Yingqi was located, everyone put down their grudges with Sobel and began to observe the surroundings. Zheng Yingqi observed these "comrades-in-arms" who had been training for two years and finally got on the battlefield.

Faced with battlefields and wars, there is a difference between new recruits and veterans.

Recruitment: I am so handsome, so funny, so lively, so lucky, etc., those nightmares cannot happen to me.

And veteran: Those nightmares will definitely happen to me, so I must be as prepared as possible and do my best!

Obviously, these recruits have this mentality, and they are about to land. They are still observing the air and the following with interest - this is the largest air force formation and naval ship formation ever, and they are proud to stay in such a sequence.

Of course, they could not see a light-controlled fleet, but they knew that under them, there was a huge fleet of more than 6,000 ships, operating with them, and they would take the lead in airborne and fight against the Germans first.

The plane flew to the coastline, then crossed the strait, approaching the French land.

At this time, the German counterattack also began - after the first string of tracer bullets of anti-aircraft machine guns appeared, the whole world seemed to have countless lines of fire appearing, and penetrated straight from the ground into the sky.

Only when the paratroopers step on the earth can they control a little bit by themselves. On the plane and in the air, everything depends on their faces. The C-47, which has no armored guard plate to protect the mailbox, is definitely a qualified iron coffin. Under this understanding, everyone is constantly praying to God, hoping that their plane will not be hit, explode, or be shot...

But such a huge group of aircraft will always be hit!

The red explosion continued to explode, and the planes continued to drag the black smoke out of the formation. Although the pilots kept controlling the plane, they still could not save the fate of the crash. If they were lucky enough to glide along the road, and if they were lucky enough to land on the flat ground in a dark spot, there might be a possibility of survival, but the probability of three consecutive encounters being together is too small after all!

The parachuting captains of each plane had already opened the cabin and shouted: "Listen, once the plane is hit, parachuting immediately!"

However, Zheng Yingqi gave up the position of the warehouse gate and signaled others to step forward - he was dragged down without a leg bag, and he was faster than others when he was parachuting.

Compared with the paratroopers in the cabin, the pilots at this time were actually more stressed - they often saw planes crashing, their eyes full of fire lines that were leaked from tracer bombs, and the eyes full of firelights of anti-aircraft gun explosions. Most pilots have no experience in combat in the war zone. This scene that seems like hell has caused serious obstacles to their thinking.

Before parachuting, the aircraft should slow down and the altitude should be at a safe altitude. This time the airborne was supposed to be 300 meters high, but due to various avoidance actions, the altitude of the aircraft did not meet this requirement. Just like the aircraft where Zheng Yingqi was located, the altitude was only 200 meters at this time!

Moreover, the pilots were thinking at this time that they would throw all their burdens away as soon as possible so that they could leave this damn place as soon as possible. So, before they were sure to arrive over the destination, the pilot pressed the button, indicating that the green light for the parachuting was on!

By the way, the pilot still forgot to adjust the altitude at this time!

"Jump!"

Seeing the green light on, the parachuting leader immediately started to shout. The paratroopers dragged their leg bags forward one after another, then threw the leg bags off the plane and jumped out. One by one, the paratroopers picked out the plane. Zheng Yingqi moved with the team. At this time, the sound of stones shaking in the iron can sounded in the cabin. A hole of more than 20 mm appeared where he was standing.

[Thanks to the system god for blessing!]

Zheng Yingqi thanked the system for the first time, and then closed this feeling. At this time, it was a soldier named Ali in front of Zheng Yingqi who jumped. He threw the leg bag out as required and planned to jump. As a result, because of a sudden evasion movement of the plane, his body fell out, half of his body hung outside the cabin, and half of his body remained inside. The leg bag was pulled as if he wanted to tear him in half.

Zheng Yingqi quickly stepped forward and pushed Ali, the unlucky guy, out of the plane. He also jumped out of the plane.

In just a few seconds, the vibration of Zhang umbrella was much worse than before, and it did not delay enough, causing them to fall heavily to the ground - Zheng Yingqi's situation. After landing, he felt like he fell from seventy or eighty or ninety meters, which almost broke his breath.

Zheng Yingqi and the others were at least lucky because they landed safely - there were many paratroopers, and their lives had come to an end before they even had time to jump.

Just like Lieutenant Mihan, the company commander of Company E.

The plane where Mihan is located is the leading aircraft of the 66th marshal. In addition to the company of E Company, there are two platoon leaders on the plane - but the plane was hit and lost power before parachute-landing, and the paratroopers did not give the time to parachute. The pilot was controlling the plane for a lateral flight and forced landing. Just when the pilot turned on the landing light and planned to land hard, the plane encountered a bush, and a fireball instantly swallowed everything.

Including the company commander of E Company Lieutenant Mihan, Lieutenant Schmitz, and the sergeant commander Evans who cooperated with Sober to make the entire E Company complain...

There were also many paratroopers who jumped off the plane but did not land safely and fought.

Some people did not open the parachute in just a few seconds due to various problems, and fell rapidly and died. Some people hit the tree when they landed. They were lucky and hung on it. However, some were unlucky and were directly penetrated by the branches. They were unwilling to die. Some were unlucky and landed in the German group. Before they could escape the constraints of the parachute, they were shot to death by the Germans. They were shot to death by the Germans. They were lucky and were captured and rescued by their own people...

But no matter what, more paratroopers finally landed on the ground in a fierce impact, but most paratroopers with leg bags regretted it later - because in a few seconds in the air, their leg bags fell off their bodies, which meant that they had lost most of the ammunition and explosives they carried, and some even lost their guns.

However, Zheng Yingqi did not lose anything except falling heavily to the ground. He quickly untied his parachute backpack and immediately escaped into the bushes. Then he whispered to the world where artillery fire was lit up:

"I am coming!"
Chapter completed!
