Chapter 0405: In fact, there are no heroes in war

What is a battlefield?

The battlefield is a hell where even death has no dignity!

Around Norville, traces of hell can be seen - it was left over from the battle on the 20th of last month. Several destroyed Shermans were lying on the pale ground, with frost all over their bodies covered in silver. Inside and outside these Shermans, there were still many frozen and terrifying corpses lying.

On the 20th, the Sobury team and the 2nd Battalion evacuated the defense line with Fova as the core. Although they had won 48 hours of precious time at the critical moment when the 101st Division arrived in Bastogne, their retreat was still defeated. The bodies were put here, waiting for a first time... it was a month smaller.

Maybe everyone felt the heavy storm coming. Looking at the corpses, Hubler couldn't help but whisper: "If we die, there will always be someone to deal with the corpses, right?"

The others were stunned. It was obvious that the incident of their comrades' corpses leaving behind nearly a month of death, which made them extremely mentally impacted.

Feeling the low atmosphere of Hubler's group, Zheng Yingqi said: "Last time, the Germans had the advantage, they were the offensive side, we could only defend passively, and now..."

He pointed behind him and said, "We are the attacking party! We kicked the Germans into the abyss!"

The morale of the paratroopers is always so easy to boost. When they think that they will end the war with their own hands as soon as possible, several paratroopers of Huble's group smiled again. Before leaving, Zheng Yingqi patted Huble's shoulder. When Huble's laughed, he glared at this guy - the warning is obvious. You are a non-commissioned officer and the backbone of this group. Will you lead the team?

...

With Zheng Yingqi's intervention, the 2nd Battalion easily arrived at the village of Lekonie. Just as the 2nd Battalion with Company D as the attacker easily occupied Lekonie, he rushed towards Kaublu. After occupying Kaublu, the 2nd Battalion would hit the throat of Norwier like a bayonet. The German troops in the town cleaned their necks and waited for the butcher's knife to arrive.

But how could the German army surrender? How could it be that this bayonet could occupy the village of Kaublu and then hit its throat?

"The Germans are out! Get ready!"

Hubler's roar could be heard by Zheng Yingqi dozens of meters away. He turned his head and looked towards Norville, then took a breath.

Just come out, why do you have so many people?

I really look down on me!

Looking at the old German array pulled out, Zheng Yingqi cursed in his heart.

Although the flat terrain here is not a nightmare for defense, it is definitely not a good place. When there is a small number of attacks on the masses, there is no psychological comfort at all. The only thing that can comfort people is that now Company D has set off the village of Leikonie, which is only used as a warning post. He doesn't need to stick here for long, just let the 2nd Battalion break through from here.

"We can stay here for 20 minutes at most. 20 minutes is enough for all our 2nd battalion members to break through here!" Zheng Yingqi loudly cheered the paratroopers, but then he reported the German updates to Spears through his elder brother (traveling through?).

"I will build a temporary position behind your front, and your troops will only need to fight for a quarter of an hour!" Spears's answer made Zheng Yingqi feel a lot relieved, but the battle broke out soon after - the Germans first opened the way with artillery fire, and the infantry almost stepped on the explosion point and launched a charge.

[When the Germans lived their most tight life, they were more powerful than several countries on the Asian battlefield...]

Zheng Yingqi was silently sighing that the German infantrymen began to approach under the cover of the tanks. The machine guns of four guard teams began to roar at the same time. The crossed firepower caused the German infantry hiding behind the tank to fall to the ground one after another, but the German tanks then began to roar, and the exposed machine gun positions began to welcome a bombardment.

After only three minutes of the exchange of fire, two of the four groups of machine guns were directly silenced. Fortunately, judging from the sound of the rifle, there was no incident of being in charge.

The paratroopers fought to block the attacking enemy, but the enemy also fought desperately this time, following the tank's infantry, regardless of casualties.

When the tank entered more than 40 meters away from the blocking line, Zheng Yingqi's backhand, who had been pressing tightly, finally got angry. The five-door Bazuka rocket launcher destroyed two tanks, but the German officer forced the infantry who wanted to retreat and asked them to continue attacking under the cover of the last tank.

"The Germans are coming!" Hubler yelled.

Zheng Yingqi understood that this was to make him order his retreat.

But...how to retreat?

The entire 2nd Battalion was marching wildly on this vast land. The 2nd Battalion arranged a blocking position of more than 100 meters more than 300 meters behind their positions. Now if you retreat, the 2nd Battalion will face the Germans' troops. Without the cover of the position, they will be destined to be defeated by the Germans. At that time, the 2nd Battalion will be cut off by the Germans from the beginning and end!

"Can't retreat! We must hold on for another ten minutes!"

Zheng Yingqi roared, Hublee cursed, and said to the two recruits in the group with red eyes: "Follow me!"

This was the most tragic battle that the 1st platoon had experienced since Day D - fighting the enemy with the least force, and on a broad ground without cover. Although the battle lasted only for more than ten minutes, it fought a fierce hand-to-hand battle. When the Germans rushed into the position, the paratroopers did not choose to retreat, nor did they raise their hands, but instead fought with their platoon leader!

The Germans were also confused!

They rushed over with great losses. They thought the Americans would retreat with the flow, but they did not expect that the other party would not retreat. Instead, they fought with them. The cruel hand-to-hand combat made the German army lose a bit in momentum.

Compton, who is building a second line of defense, couldn't help swallowing. Damn, it's so fierce!

After seeing the German being dragged into hand-to-hand combat by the first platoon, Spears seized the opportunity and shouted at the second platoon who was still building a position quickly: "Crash with me!"

The soldiers' favorite officer was the kind of officer who shouted to rush with me. When Spears rushed with the engineer shovel, the paratroopers rushed out without hesitation. The others in the 2nd Battalion, who were marching in a hurry, witnessed this crazy scene and their scalp was numb.

Of course, the second platoon did not directly join the hand-to-hand combat, but after arriving at the periphery of the battlefield, it spread out and peeled the chaotic German army with a point shot.

The German army originally thought that the US military would run away after they rushed into the position, but they never thought that they would be dragged into the most tragic hand-to-hand combat, and even the team could not be launched. During the melee, their officers briefly lost their control of the troops and could easily recover their control, but they did not expect that at the critical moment, another US military would stab the weak point.

Before their commanders could make a decision, the German soldiers made a decision for their commanders - run!

Defeated like a mountain!

When the first soldier who fled desperately appeared, the battle situation was already doomed. The German commander could only defeat the soldiers with disbelief, anger, despair and other emotions.

The Germans were unscientifically defeated, and everyone in the 2nd Battalion who witnessed this scene was thinking:

Is this too unscientific to win?

The most outrageous thing is that it was a blocking battle to fight for time. Unexpectedly, the battle ended, and even captured more than a dozen Germans who were terrified and surrendered directly - this is even more outrageous!

"Win?" Hubler looked at the battlefield with empty eyes. Is he winning?

"Win." Zheng Yingqi, who was standing beside him, gasping and sitting on the battlefield full of corpses and howling. Even not far from him, a German soldier was covering the wound stabbed by a bayonet, shouting with difficulty: "Seagulls pounce on the rice!"

Hubler sat next to the begging German soldier, and took out the pistol that killed him in the original time and space with difficulty. He slowly aimed at him as the German soldier begged. Just as Hubler pulled the trigger, Spears held down his hand and shook his head gently.

Sergeant Hubler, who was known for his broken mouth after Gordon, suddenly started to cry: "They are all dead...all dead..."

Spears sat beside Hubler, took him into his arms, patted Hubler who was collapsed, and kept saying: "You did a good job, their sacrifice is worth it. They saved the entire 2nd Battalion and avoided the major losses that the 2nd Battalion might suffer... You are all good! They are all good!"

...

The 2nd Battalion launched an attack on Kaublu Village, and most of the three companies participated in the attack. Only the temporary medical center and a group of soldiers who could not participate in the battle were squatting behind and watching the battle.

Private Garcia, who was walking, walked to the resting place of the first row of E Company, took out a pack of dripping cigarettes, threw them aside in anger, rummaged over his pocket for a long time, found a pack of cigarettes that had not been opened, and handed them to everyone in a row one by one. Even Zheng Yingqi, who was not smoking, took one, lit it, took a long time to take a long breath, but he spitted all the cigarettes out of his mouth without passing through his lungs.

"What's wrong with you?" Zheng Yingqi asked.

"I didn't jump over when I crossed the river, so I fell asleep..."

"You didn't jump over more than one meter wide?"

"I carried six mortar shells and overestimated myself." Garcia trembled with self-deprecating, "Our platoon leader said that my clothes are frozen now, and I can hear the crackling sounds when I walk, so I didn't let me participate in the attack."

"Persevere, after you set it down, you can change the clothes inside."

Garcia nodded fiercely and said, "Plane leader Jacob, your row is good!"

"Thanks."

"I mean, we all think you are real heroes!"

"Hero?" Zheng Yingqi suddenly laughed and said, "There are no heroes in the war."

He has never counted the current situation in the first row, and everyone seemed to have to forget the statistics report, hero?

In this case, hero?

Oh……

Garcia did not understand what Zheng Yingqi meant, but said stubbornly: "You are heroes!"

"You can go there to help, I think the medical soldiers welcome a perfect labor force, your clothes are frozen and walking the sound of Kaka, the wounded may prefer it."

Garcia scratched her head: "Plane leader Jacob, I want to have a good chat with you when I have time in the future. I want to write your story into a book!"

"Okay, I have time to say it." Zheng Yingqi perfunctorily, and Garcia left after she kicked most of the cigarette in her arms and left here, and went to the medical center to help.

...

The battle in Kaublu was as fierce as the wounded, and the wounded were transported from the front line one by one, but the Germans here were struggling dyingly. When it was dark, the last house that was still stubbornly collapsed in the explosion, and the evacuation of Kaublulu came to an end.

Zheng Yingqi's eyes were fixed on Norville, 800 meters away - tomorrow, it will be attacking there.
