Chapter 054: Strategic Armageddon (2) [Asking for Votes]

Alas, the principal's "Piff's Counterattack" is over, and Ben has been chasing it for nearly a year, but the ending is not so perfect. Will there be a follow-up to Dongge?

"Paratroopers are born surrounded." —Epigraph. (From the words of a soldier of the 101st Airborne Division)

The Airborne Forces are one of the secret weapons of this strategic Armageddon, and because of their high mobility and high penetration, they are very suitable for airborne armed attacks behind enemy lines.

It is also because they are always present in the most densely populated places of the enemy, and every time they are surrounded. So, as the inscription says, they are inherently surrounded. Fighting behind enemy lines was brutal - no medicines, no weapons (because the parachutes of the Airborne Forces could not guarantee the safe landing of heavily armed paratroopers, so paratroopers usually carried small arms. No support, no medical care, no food, no bullets...... In short, there was nothing needed behind enemy lines; But what is not needed is piles and piles - enemy ambushes, enemy encirclement, enemy encirclement, enemy shelling, enemy bombardment, enemy sniping, enemy charge...... In short, any action behind enemy lines requires great care, and if you are not careful, even if a radio code is discovered by the enemy, there is only one way to die.

This is also the most helpless part of the paratroopers' combat life - unless they have air supremacy and can send heavy fighters such as aerial gunboats and aircraft to carry ground attack ammunition to support, they can only exist as a small group of troops that are better than the guerrillas.

。 Although this division has only been established for three months and even has only one regiment of troops under its command, the superpower of this division cannot be ignored. The commander of this division at and above the platoon level can mobilize three He-113 super-heavy ground attack aircraft to provide ground support.

※※※

John Army warrant officer 1st class and 11 men and platoons of light mortars and recoilless guns were aboard a He-114 super-heavy strategic transport aircraft. They were also airborne with three days of ammunition.

The entire 961st regiment was dispatched almost entirely, and the second group was the regimental headquarters. Their landing time will be after the paratroopers on the ground have consolidated their ground defenses.

The regiment landed 460 kilometers south of Moscow, where there was a large transit point for all kinds of aid from the United States. Now even Soviet soldiers at the front are eating canned luncheon meat from the United States.

But the German soldiers ate more nutritious meat and vegetarian food with large cans, and they could eat enough for every meal. A large can of 600 grams and a few pieces of black bread is fully sufficient for a day's activities. But these German soldiers were in the Soviet Union, so they had some butter in their cans. After heating up, you can eat a delicious meal, even the snowy Soviet climate can't help the strong soldiers.

Of course, all of this stuff is produced by the Shuttle. In real history, German soldiers could not even eat because of the long supply lines. (It's true, and the back office is also two.) When the 3rd Mountain Division was surrounded, the last truckload of supplies sent by the logistics department was 2 tons of dark chocolate and 500 pieces of iron. )

……

John walked to the door and watched the skydiver's gesture. When the door light turned green, the skydiver on the side of the hatch kicked John down.

John was wearing an oxygen mask during the fall from a height, after all, if he was not careful when he parachuted from a height of 5,000 meters, he might lose the battle before he landed. The oxygen cylinder is very convenient, it has 10 kilograms of oxygen in it, but because of its weightlessness, it does not put any burden on John at all. The small oxygen cylinder can be carried after landing, and it is also a good choice to use it as a yang energy for rescue.

The anti-aircraft artillery fire on the ground was very intensive, and even a few shells flew past John.

A small-caliber (40mm, well, indeed small-caliber) anti-aircraft shell hit the ammunition pack of one of John's paratroopers. So the ammunition exploded, and the shrapnel flying everywhere also injured several paratroopers nearby. The paratrooper who was hit died in the process of exploding his own ammunition. This kind of combat attrition is inevitable, and it has to be said that the competition in war is not only combat skills, but also luck.

John didn't have time to be sad because he was at the point where he had skydived and opened his bag.

Pulling the rope hard, the parachute bloomed like a small flower in the dark night sky.

There are also many beautiful umbrella flowers all around.

John looked around and noticed that there were quite a few comrades nearby.

……

"Ping-pong", John fell heavily on the ground, because his tonnage was relatively large (180 pounds) and he carried more ammunition, so the effect of the parachute was almost inevitable.

At this time, John looked around, and suddenly cold sweat flowed out - he was in a clearing in the middle of the forest, but all his nearby comrades were gone.

If it weren't for the fact that there were no "paranormal events" and "time-traveling events"[note 1], John would have been terrified.

John remembered what his instructor had said, "You must not run around after you land, so that your chances of survival will be higher." ”

After packing what little he had, John shook the front handguard of the MP-41 assault rifle (the legendary MP-44), pulled the bolt, and adjusted the automatic mode to "single burst", which is almost semi-automatic, which can actually save a lot of ammunition. [Note 2]

※※※

John rushed to the assembly point out of breath and found that the rest of his platoon was all here. His own airborne platoon originally had 47 people, but now there are only 19 people left, and even the platoon commander is not here. Generally speaking, if you do not arrive at the assembly site after 10 minutes of landing, you can only be judged as "killed" or "missing".

So now John is the platoon commander of this small airborne platoon.

In addition to the 19 MP-41s, John was able to mobilize three 50mm light airborne platoon guns. It would be very difficult to capture the fourth storage site with these only firepower equipment, as the garrison force was three battalions in strength, and there were large quantities of new weaponry in them.

In the training after being recruited, the paratrooper unit regards the spirit of "bright sword" as the most important spirit, so these people will not have any fear of any impossible task, but want to do their best to complete the task.

, a small team of 20 people carried out a fan-shaped search in a very orderly manner.

※※※

Suddenly, John froze - there was a lieutenant paratrooper in a large tree in front of him.

John looked closely and saw that this was the platoon commander who had never been able to come. The platoon commander was on another transport plane, and the crew of the transport plane had just released half of it when a large-caliber anti-aircraft shell (85mm, which can be said to be the largest caliber among the Soviet mobile anti-aircraft guns, and even the T-34\85 was a modified version of this style. hit, the whole plane disintegrated in the air, and it was at this time that the platoon commander jumped out of the plane.

……

The paratroopers who were descending at high altitude and high speed failed to put on their oxygen masks, and as a result, the oxygen masks were blown away by a strong gust of wind.

The speed was so high that the paratroopers could not breathe at all, and the carbon dioxide in their bodies could not be exchanged with the oxygen in the atmosphere.

Before the paratrooper was about to lose consciousness, he pulled open his parachute. Because even if you faint, as long as you can open the umbrella bag, you may still have hope of survival, but once you move to the ground in free fall, gravitational acceleration and gravitational potential energy will make you a real meat sauce.

The paratroopers gradually regained consciousness, but because of the previous fainting, the parachute drifted with the wind to a place close to the enemy anti-aircraft guns.

The paratroopers tried their best to change their course, but the drastic maneuvers attracted the attention of the enemy's anti-aircraft guns.

Several rounds of small-caliber (20mm) anti-aircraft shells concentrated the paratroopers.

The paratrooper felt that he was getting colder and colder, the world in front of him began to blur, and the strength of his limbs seemed to be taken away in an instant.

……

"John! You're going to die on the battlefield like this! You may not seem like such a terrible thing, but on the battlefield you are extremely disrespectful to your own life and the lives of your comrades! The second lieutenant with camouflage cream on his face yelled at John.

In the training just now, because it was his first skydive, and he was kicked off before he was fully prepared, John failed to land perfectly and rolled a few times after landing. (Well, I think of our homeroom teacher, sin sin.) )

Behind John was a group of young people with the same expressions, although they were all faces with camouflage cream, but the expressions on their faces still reflected their true thoughts.

……

"John, when you're tired, just lean on top of me for a while." Behind John, an army lieutenant sweated and said, despite his face still wearing camouflage cream, the features of his face revealed his true identity.

John was already a warrant officer of the first class of the army, and this time their task was to hold their ground for thirteen hours under the siege of three reserve infantry battalions. It was also a very difficult tipping point to cross, most of the paratroopers were only able to hold out for twelve hours, but John and his platoon were able to hold out for more than thirteen hours, and now they were going to challenge for fourteen hours. The rules for the end of the challenge are that the defender is wiped out, and the attacker's soldiers can be resurrected, but the number of deaths will be counted and the K\D ratio will be calculated.

This was already the last wave of the attack, and now all that remained in the entire position was John and his platoon commander. The remaining ammunition was completely unable to support the enemy's attack this time, and the physical strength of the two had been overdrawn to a critical point. After all, thirteen hours of highly concentrated mental state is not something that ordinary people can bear.

In charge of the offensive were three battalions of the 811 Regiment, which were also very famous among the reserve troops, and received training close to the level of the regular army special forces, so to speak, in addition to experience, they were not inferior to these paratrooper units.

"Ulla...... On-board ...... Rush, ......" and all kinds of shouts made people think that they had come to the United Nations, but in reality, they were attacking troops. Although they both speak German, their mother tongue is more courageous at this time.

The grenades had long since run out, there were only a dozen bullets left, and a large colored dot suddenly appeared on the platoon commander's hat.

The platoon commander fell limply, this was due to severe physical overdraft.

Before falling asleep, the platoon commander pulled a bullet out of his pocket and handed it to John.

John didn't use this bullet, because this bullet was a live bullet, and John probably killed the platoon commander.

John screamed, picked up the spear next to him and rushed out, the tip of the training gun was unsharpened, but it could still hurt people. , in a group of people, it is like entering a no-man's land.

Lieutenant General Kuturt, the supreme commander of the paratrooper units, awarded John and his platoon the honorary title of "ace paratrooper platoon".

……

I think back to the bits and pieces of myself and the platoon commander.

Reaching out and stroking the bullet in his chest pocket, John gritted his teeth and moved on. Before leaving, John solemnly saluted the platoon commander's body with a standard military salute.

※※※

John and the others came to the front of the storage site.

John knew that his mission was the most important of the airborne attack, and that the attacks in other areas were the cover for this mission.

John and the others, who were injected with the booster potions, were all powerful people, which is why they were able to carry more weapons and equipment.

After looking at it with a telescope.

John pulled the bolt, turned on the safe, and began to work on the battle plan.

……

John put on an infrared night vision device overhead, installed a thermal imaging sight on his weapon,.

, but still because for the sake of camouflage, a tall wall was not built, which is also one of the jokes in the history of world wars.

The crisp and very rhythmic sound of gunfire symbolizes the end of life, and the loud and whistling cannonballs are the end of a pile of life. Despite being only half a platoon, John played a regimental assault fire in a short period of time, playing with the Olympic spirit!

※※※

The Soviet soldiers picked up their guns like crazy and rushed towards John and the others, moving the shooting would have reduced the accuracy, and the Soviet soldiers did not receive much training, so a very tragic thing happened - they were completely reimbursing the bullets.

Soon, all the Soviet soldiers were wiped out.

But another force has emerged, and their purpose seems to be to hold the warehouse in the middle of the target of John and the others.

John felt like he had been hammered behind him, but as long as he wasn't dead, he couldn't check his injuries. So John continued to shoot with precision.

Soon, John and others eliminated the remaining force after a battle, it turned out that this force was composed of the Soviet Internal Affairs Forces and the American Army, and John even saw the logo of the 82nd Airborne Division.

John and the others came to the warehouse gate.

Of the original 20 people, there are now only 9 left, and the ammunition is also very depleted. It stands to reason that this unit has completely lost its combat effectiveness, but this unit is a miracle.

※※※

John thought for a moment, and pulled out a not-so-large box marked Y from his broken paratrooper backpack.

This box is very ordinary, but underneath the usual exterior it is unusually hard.

After entering his fingerprints, John was able to open the box.

It stands to reason that in addition to having one of these boxes, there should be one for his platoon commander. But the hapless platoon commander was killed when he landed, so now only he has this important box for himself.

John took out the contents of the box, which was a portable high-pressure acetylene welding torch, although it was only a dozen kilograms, it was capable of using at least seventy-two hours of high-intensity welding work, because the entire weight was acetylene, and the bottle containing oxygen was not on it.

John thought about it and pulled out his oxygen cylinder from behind his back, only to find that his oxygen cylinder had been broken. So he took the oxygen cylinder from behind one of the paratroopers beside him, and divided it by two to put the cylinder on the back of the torch.

John gave it a try and found that the torch was ready to use. Cutting was made against the heavy gates, and the sparks scattered symbolized the demise of the steel cables.

John pushed the door open, creaking open. The sight inside froze him.

[Note 1] I don't know if this kind of incident has happened, but I would rather believe that it is not credible. Legend has it that there were two paranormal events in the Moscow Metro, one was when a subway suddenly disappeared and then appeared ten kilometers away, and only the remaining traces of life on it could be found, and the two tracks did not even have any connected parts; Another incident was a water leak in the Moscow Metro, where a subway train happened to reach the leak, although the car heard a remote maintenance fork in the road, even the watertight door smashed the last car, and the abandoned platform found traces of people's lives. Despite the fact that every year there are people in the Moscow metro looking for these disappeared people, the search for them for many years has still been fruitless. Let's talk a little further, during World War II, there was a VIIC or IXB in Germany, which dived on the south coast of Africa for a night. By the time the crew woke up the next day, they had already appeared on the east coast of North America, and the young crew had become gray-haired old men. Of course, Ben Tea's own opinion is that he may have entered the wormhole, but this is Ben Tea's opinion after all, and it cannot represent the real situation. There are a lot of supernatural events.,Ben Funny won't explain them one by one here.,After all, it's also very scary.,Ben Funny doesn't want to have nightmares at night.。

[Note 2] After entering the battlefield, a normal person will have a feeling of nervousness, which is unavoidable, even for veterans of the battlefield. Then when you suddenly see the enemy, it is easy to pull the trigger to the end, so that you will greatly waste valuable ammunition, especially the airborne troops, which have not much ammunition, so there is a "single burst fire" or "" firing method, which can greatly save ammunition. br
