Chapter 69 Return to the assembly area

Chen Bin, later generations, had hardly participated in actual combat, and the only time he was in the city of Fallujah. His understanding of field trenches almost all came from the training of the 101st Airborne Division...

The well-connected trenches do create very convenient conditions for the defensive forces. But in the same way, trenches also have a big disadvantage, that is, it is almost difficult to organize decent resistance after the enemy attacks the trenches.

The German troops scattered in the trenches met in local areas of the trenches, which were definitely far higher than those of the Germans. In addition, the narrow space in the trenches, it was difficult to even dodge and find cover.

Under such circumstances, the trench attack almost became a group of US troops with the advantage of numbers. They shouted and carried guns, and rushed all the way... Facing more muzzles and more bullets, the German troops in the trench were scattered...

The No. 2 artillery could no longer be defended, and the German army was not some extremist who put life and death aside. The best choice was to move through the trenches and go to the next position and find ways to organize defense.

But it's all in vain...

Faced with the full combat troops armed to the teeth, the number of people is no less than that of your German army, and the superior forces are more concentrated, this group of German army is in trouble.

"It's a bit boring, I don't know how Winters and the others are..."

After firing again and knocking out a guy who looked like a commander, Chen Bin muttered, and got up to move his position to keep up with the guys who were already rushing to the top.

It should be time to sleep at night, and except for the necessary on-duty personnel, the rest of the 4th Company were resting. Although the artillery fire throughout the night would definitely not make them sleep like a dead pig, it would take time to wake up from the stuttering of the attack and organize a counterattack.

With intentional calculations but no intentions, and with the artillery calculator and other technical troops in the artillery company, it can be said that the time, place and people are on Chen Bin's side, so the battle is not difficult at all...

Following the charge of the D Company soldiers, he pulled cold nike out several soldiers who tried to touch the machine gun, as well as some guys who looked like commanders. In less than an hour, the battle outside the city ended.

"Captain, the mission here has been completed, and it's time for me to return to the team!"

Found Captain Banks who was organizing troops to collect prisoners, Chen Bin offered to say goodbye. It was five o'clock soon, and it was almost dawn...

I'll catch up with breakfast after another hour or two?

"You are right, Chen. Just now, Lieutenant Colonel called, and the Stars and Stripes have been raised in the town. Our 505th Regiment is lucky. We met many comrades during the attack. Now almost half of the regiment has completed the assembly. Compared to us, the 506th Regiment really needs you more! Come, take this!"

After pulling out a cigarette and handing it to Chen Bin, Captain Banks smiled particularly brightly on his face, and even took out a Ruger pistol from the spoils and stuffed it into Chen Bin's pocket...

"There are not many bullets, so I'll give you two magazines. In addition, I'll secretly tell you that our division headquarters operates with the 505th Regiment, so General Li Qiwei can see your performance last night. Wait, man! It won't be long before your military rank will be restored!"

The 82nd Division's division headquarters is here?!

When Chen Bin was slightly surprised, he understood where this guy came from after lighting a cigarette...

A town was occupied on the first night of the airborne. If nothing unexpected happens, the town of St. Merle Agris would definitely be the first liberated city in the Battle of Normandy.

It would be fine if it was simply this, but it was even more coincidental that the division headquarters was also in their corps, which was like earning great achievements under the eyes of the leader...

"Well, it seems that you may need to call you Major Banks next time you meet! But I really need to leave now, please say goodbye to Lieutenant Colonel Clauze on my behalf!"

"I will, thank you again for your help! If it weren't for you tonight, our D-Second offense wouldn't be so smooth!"

Finally said something human...

If Chen Bin hadn't knocked off the machine gunner at the first time, even if D's company took down this artillery position, there would definitely be a lot of casualties. Is it really a joke to think that "Hitler's chainsaw"?

With this gratitude from D Company with peace of mind, that is, the Ruger pistol, Chen Bin walked east along the N13 Highway...

It was dawn and the scenery gradually improved.

With the vast land of Europe and sparsely populated, Chen Bin was still safe on the road, looking at the green fields and the grass rippling in the golden sunshine, which was a feast for the eyes.

But under this pastoral leisurely scenery, there are always some unscenic things. For example, a bad paratrooper who was hung on a tree and then shot directly by the German patrol, such as some parachutes left in the wilderness, some leg bags with weapons, etc.

Just as Chen Bin was walking calmly, a whistling suddenly came from above his head, followed by a series of explosions in the distance. The huge explosion made the earth seem to be shaking, and the original beauty and tranquility disappeared.

Look at the time on the watch, it happened to be just after five o'clock.

After the bombs were dropped, the bombs were re-formed and left above Chen Bin's head, and then the next team of bombers continued to drop bombs...

Chen Bin's second half of Guiying Road was almost back to the vicinity of Carangtang with the roar on the beach. When passing by a small village, Chen Bin finally saw the familiar eagle emblem!

"Hey, another lost person comes!"

Seeing Chen Bin appear, several soldiers at the entrance of the village laughed and greeted each other. In the overwhelming airborne last night, every soldier who could find the assembly area alive was precious.

Even if the soldiers don’t know each other, they still feel a sense of lingering in the aftermath of the disaster.

"I'm not lost! Do you know where the e-connection is?"

Mixed with cannons on the beach, Chen Bin asked directly.

"Inside, there is an old tree at the end of the village, and everyone in E Company is there! However, your company commander seems to be missing, and now they are all lieutenants in command..."

There are so many lieutenants in the e Company. When they heard the soldiers' words, it seems that there is only one lieutenant left in the e Company?! That Winters...

"Thank you, brother!"

Thinking of that terrible result, Chen Bin didn't care about being nonsense with the soldiers at the door. After waving his hand, he walked towards the end of the village...

Along the way, American soldiers gathered in groups of three or five, not at all like an army gathering, but instead came here like a group of armed tour groups carrying guns and sticks.

But Chen Bin's focus was not here. Looking at the assembly area where there might not be two hundred people in total, Chen Bin's heart became heavier and heavier. At this time, it had been almost four hours since the airdrop...

Even the airdrop area of ​​the 82nd Division, on the Metler River, is only more than 13 kilometers away from Carlandon. They are all soldiers, and there is only a distance of four hours...

Don’t say you’re leaving, you should climb over even if you crawl!
