After crossing the bridge, China soldiers lay down on the roadbed behind the tracks, and high rubble and tracks became their shelters.
Before the bridge, the mortar squad soldiers lay down in the grass on the shore, unloading the 6 mm mortar from the horse’s back, quickly adjusting the shooting angle, and fusing the shells for launch.
Generally, the infantry platoon is assigned a six-person mortar squad equipped with a 6 mm mortar. When I met the cavalry just now, because of the sudden conflict, they didn’t come to set up the mortar battle.
At present, the British patrol gunboats are rushing from the distant estuary. Although mortars are not the most suitable weapons, it is difficult to hit the gunboats in high-speed movement, but this time is also desperate.
In addition to mortar squad, infantry platoon is equipped with a three-person rocket team, equipped with a rocket launcher and several rockets, which are the main weapons against gunboats.
The gunboat "chug chug" rushed towards the railway bridge. Behind the gunboat, the M-shaped flag was ringing. There was a piece of smoke floating on the calm river, and the water was shaking slightly.
Behind the bridge tracks, rifles and light machine guns are aimed at the gunboats. Although the people and rifles are a little small in front of the gunboats, they will not affect the fighting spirit of China people at all. They are confident that they have enough means to send this behemoth to the bottom of the river.
The gunboat was far away, and a shell came, and the projectile roared to the bridge deck like a black spot. A shell exploded violently on the side of the bridge, and the reinforced concrete bridge was blown up, and a large piece of gravel was flying all over the sky.
Mortars on the bank of the river made a dull sound, and shells roared across the river. There was an explosion at the bottom of the river next to the gunboat. A water column was lasered up, and then two shells landed around the gunboat, and the fried water flooded the gunboat.
The gunboat machine gun fired blindly and quickly, sweeping the river bank like a chain of fire, cutting off trees and weeds and splashing snowflakes and soil around the river.
Daniel Cheng took the opportunity to shoot a rifle, and the gunman died. At this moment, the rocket launcher on the shore jumped up and the grass on the bank of the river ran. He was looking for the best angle to launch rockets.
Another shell hit the bridge next to the railroad track. It’s good that the large-caliber artillery has limited destructive ability, but the powerful energy also blew up a section of the railroad track and twisted it into a twist and fell into the water.
Sleepers and gravel fell into the river like a dumpling.
At last, a mortar shot was fired into the gunboat, but the firepower of the gunboat stopped less than twenty dollars.
At this time, the rocket launcher finally found the right time, and the rocket flew to the gunboat with a long tail flame. There was a fierce explosion in the steel plate cabin of the cabin, and a flame suddenly ravaged the whole small gunboat. The British soldiers jumped into the cold river.
The gunboat, which was burning and out of control, rushed to the shore and gave a violent explosion, then collapsed into the river.
By 11 o’clock in the afternoon, the division had cleaned up the British people in the southwest suburb of Caen, exposing the bottom of their guns near Caen.
The acting teacher of the 11th Division, Hu Congfu, turned over with a tired face and came to the front headquarters of the 33rd Regiment with several guards. This is a wooden house outside the suburb of Caen. He strode into the room and pushed the glass window. A man handed me a kettle, grabbed it and took a sip. A strong smell of alcohol rushed into his nose.
"This wine tastes strong. What kind of wine is it?" Fan Tian Hu asked
"brandy!" Cheng also firmly replied
"oh!" Fantian Hu picked up the kettle and put it to his mouth to take another sip, but after thinking about it, he put it back and said, "It’s best to wait until you punch in!"
"The teacher is right!"
Wei Kai ran in with a cold wind and cried in a string, "When will the teachers attack? Why don’t you take Caen all at once? The British roots in front of the river can’t stop us. "
"I’m more urgent than you. I wish I could carry a gun and crush Caen city! Didn’t her grandmother practice marksmanship to deal with the British? Now it’s rare for the commander-in-chief to nod his head and take it out on the British. What’s there to dawdle about? “
"This is all QuWeiQing this guy spoil the broth" Hu Congfu rang rang "to commander in chief has decided to take Caen in one breath, but after listening to QuWeiQing this guy a few words delayed again! This guy’s a pain in the ass … "
Qu Weiqing tried his best to say that he was excited, and Zhang Yiping told him to calm down from the hot and wild.
Qu Weiqing has a lot of complaints about Zhang Yiping’s impromptu change of war plan, but he also knows that Zhang Yiping is a very stubborn person. He may listen to Qu Weiqing’s opinions on many things, but it is an exception only to the British war. If he decides to find trouble with the British, it will not be easy to be said.
Qu Weiqing knew that Zhang Yiping had made up his mind that he would not change his decision easily, so he suggested that Zhang Yiping should pay tribute first and then use his troops. That is to say, he warned the British to withdraw from Caen first or panic in.
Zhang Yiping then agreed that it would be the highest realm of art of war to come without fighting. Although the British would not buy it, it would be harmful to try, and it was also very gentlemanly to say so.
Qu Weiqing sent a euphemistic message to his negotiator, Laurent, the British Deputy Ambassador to France, saying that the regiment attempted to occupy Rouen in the attack of the Million German Corps, and was forced to transfer troops to the south. The officers and men passing by Caen, especially the wounded, were hungry, thirsty and cold, hoping to enter Caen for a rest, so as to better contribute to the Allies’ final defeat of the Germans.
Laurent, who was in Caen City, was furious after receiving this newspaper. He slapped the table and roared, "Shame! I have never seen such a shameful China person. "
Laurent means that Zhang Yiping is the most shameful person in China, but compared with the British, Zhang Yiping is still far away. He at least informed before the attack that if the British wanted to attack China, they would not do so.
Zhang Yiping is a gentleman, but he is definitely not stupid or kind. Now he is like a child who is full of brute force. Of course, he will not wait for the British to reply.
Similarly, Hu Congfu will not sit still and wait for a large-scale military attack to wait for Zhang Yiping’s order, but he can launch a small-scale battle
The front of the 33rd regiment is separated by a small river, and not far from the other side is the river of Caen City. You can see a magnificent castle standing in the center of Caen City.
Scouts with thatched grass by the river lie prone in the grass by the river like a curled hedgehog rifle. The muzzle of the rifle sticks out quietly through the weeds. The dark barrel is covered with frost and dew, and the cold hurts the scout’s face. They hold their breath and carefully search for the suspicious target opposite, ready to shoot each other like a keen hunter.
Chapter 1 Reconnaissance platoon
-I’ve been busy with trifles these two days, and I’ve written a little less, asking for recommendation and support-
The siege of Caen was sparsely and violently fought before the battle outside Caen, but in this case, it is very normal for the * * regiment and the British Expeditionary Force, and both sides do not recognize this as a war.
Even though the two sides negotiated and signed an agreement and exchanged hostages some time ago, the reconnaissance troops and snipers of both sides never stopped fighting like this.
This is a strange phenomenon.
