Chapter 186: Guarding the Bridge
There are only five people left in the rescue team. A feeling of no hope swelled up in the hearts of several people. Including Rotai, now that the plot has changed a lot, he is also a little bottomless, will he and Captain Miller be left in the rescue team before meeting Ryan? Or has Ryan really been sacrificed?
Rothai gritted his teeth and used a burnt knife to skillfully remove the bullet that had entered his thigh, took out another bullet, removed the bullet, sprinkled gunpowder on the wound, and then ignited. During the whole process, Luo Tai didn't make a sound, but just broke out in a cold sweat.
"Let's move on." Captain Miller ordered.
At this moment, everyone is not objecting, and there is no way back now, so they can only follow the captain all the way. Whether to live or die is all up to God's arrangement.
The five of them walked in the dense forest, and after walking for another thirty minutes, they left the woods, and as soon as they came out of the woods, they saw a wide dirt road, and on one side of the dirt road was a field of yellow rapeseed. Captain Miller led the group across the dirt road and into the canola fields.
No sooner had they entered the rape field than they heard the rumbling of motors on the dirt road.
"Tank, hidden." Captain Miller hurriedly ordered. Several people then crawled into the rape field.
Sure enough, not long after, a German Tiger tank slowly drove from the distance of the dirt road. At this time, everyone held their breath, hoping to avoid the tank. The weapons they have now are no match for a heavy tank.
"Boom, boom!!"
Suddenly, there were two explosions. The tank was then hit by the tracks and the mailbox, and it grunted forward for a few meters before coming to a halt, the artillery fire raising a cloud of smoke.
"Who fired it?" Mike asked, turning his head. Several people shook their heads. However, Rotai was overjoyed, and the scene made him realize that Ryan should be there.
After a while, the top of the tank opened, and several German soldiers jumped out, and as soon as they appeared, Luo Tai and his party immediately opened fire and quickly killed a few people. Then everyone slowly moved towards the tank.
"Be careful, there may be missing Germans." Captain Miller said.
"Bump Bump!!" As soon as he finished speaking, Rotai opened fire and killed the three Germans behind the tank.
Captain Miller nodded, and shouted towards the rape field in the distance, "Captain Miller, Special Operations Group, come out." β
After he spoke, three Allied troops emerged from the rape field, one of them carrying an anti-tank hair canister. The three of them smiled and walked over to Captain Miller.
"I'm Corporal Han of the Airborne Division." Said an emaciated man on the left.
"Private James Ryan." The man in the middle said
"James Ryan? From Idaho? Miller was stunned and hurriedly asked.
Ryan (played by Matt Damon) nodded with a smile and asked puzzledly, "How do you know?" β
Captain Miller finally smiled with satisfaction, and he turned to look at the four comrades behind him who were also smiling.
"Why are you here?" Miller asked.
Corporal Han nodded and said, "Sir, we have been ordered to defend the Merderley Bridge. The three of us were commandos, and German tanks kept passing by here for the past two days, so we came out to ambush. β
Captain Miller walked up to Ryan, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Ryan, we're back to your camp at once, we're coming to you with General Marshall's orders." β
The group soon arrived at Ryan's camp, and Captain Miller first told him the news of the death of Ryan's three brothers, and then conveyed the order of General Marshall, the chief of staff of the U.S. Army, to let Ryan and Captain Miller leave the European theater immediately and take a plane back to the United States.
However, as in the movie, Ryan firmly disagrees to leave, and he asks to continue to defend the bridge with his comrades. And he could not understand why the military department would sacrifice precious resources to him and let him leave the battlefield.
What's so special about him? His comrades-in-arms are also fighting bloodily, but why is there no such special treatment? It's not fair.
Seeing Ryan's stubbornness, Leybin couldn't help it anymore, and he shouted at Ryan, "You know what? We sacrificed four comrades-in-arms to find you, four!! Are you going to let them die in vain? β
Ryan looked at Leybin in surprise, then at Captain Miller, who frowned and acknowledged this.
"What's their name?" Ryan asked.
Leybin sighed and said slowly, "Capazzo, Weide, Urban, Mylis. β
Ryan shook his head sadly and shouted, "Way?" Why? I feel sorry for my fallen comrades. But I don't understand what the command is doing. We are all trying to fight, why don't others have the right to leave? What kind of bullshit command is this? β
Rotai had remained silent, knowing that Ryan would not leave.
"I'm sorry, Captain Miller. I refused to carry out this order, and now I just want to hold this bridge with my comrades. With that, he turned and came to the back of cover, crouching down sadly. Several of his comrades-in-arms also came over and patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort.
Captain Miller was worried, and he looked at the fortifications that had been erected, and walked slowly to the river. Leybin and the others could only sit on the bunker and wait for Captain Miller's decision.
Rotai followed Captain Miller, sat down beside him, and said, "Captain, maybe I know what you're thinking?" β
Captain Miller smiled and asked Rothey, "Then tell me about it." β
"You want to stay here and help them guard the bridge." Luo Tai said calmly.
"It's been more than I expected." Miller said slowly, "I don't know if I'm going to leave or stay now. β
"Captain, I want to say that when we get old, when we think back to this shitty war, it is full of cruelty and bloodlust. If there's ever been a hint of goodness, I'm sure it's this one. Luo Tai said slowly, he thought in his heart that the task of the watch was to let him guard the bridge with Miller and Ryan, and ensure that the two of them did not die, so the five of them must stay first.
And the plot of the movie is the same, this watch does not let the watch change, if he tries to dissuade Miller from leaving, then at least the mission will not be completed.
Captain Miller turned to look at Rothey, slowly smiled, and then said, "You're right, we'll help them guard the bridge, and then take Ryan home." β
Rotai nodded and said, "Captain, do you think Ryan is worth saving now?" β
Captain Miller stood up and said as he went, "It's worth it!" β
The addition of Captain Miller made him the supreme commander of the bridge garrison, and he began to deploy his combat forces, considering that the Germans had strong tanks, he knew that this battle would be very brutal.
"Tanks are deadly things, and our light equipment is like tickling them." The guests sorted out their equipment and gave Captain Miller a way.
Captain Miller turned to Corporal Han and said, "How many explosives do we have?" β
"There's a lot of explosives, enough to blow up two bridges." Corporal Han said.
"Divide the part, we make zuΓ² sticky bombs." Miller said
"Stickybomb?"
"Yes." Miller nodded: "Stuff the explosives into the military socks, then fill them with lubricating oil, and then connect the fuse, this explosive sticks to the tracks of the tank, and after the explosion, the tracks will blow up, this is the only way we can deal with the tank at the moment." β
Under the guidance of Captain Miller, the crowd began to take off their socks and make sticky bombs. When Rotai saw this, he knew that he should now find a place to release the Apache when the Germans attacked.
He didn't want to sue Captain SΓΉ Miller now, he just wanted to end this battle as quickly as possible and complete the watch mission and go home.
"Knife, you stay in the front of the broken building, and the guests cooperate with you." Captain Miller said to Roth.
"No, I can do it myself. The guests still follow you. Luo Tai said firmly.
Captain Miller hesitated. Luo Tai said again: "Don't worry, Captain, I will be able to defend it." β
"Alright then, be careful." Captain Miller nodded.
Rotai grabbed his weapon and ran straight to the front building. When he came to the building, he didn't go in, but bypassed everyone's eyes
A field of rape at the far end of the bridge ran over. Once at the rape field, Rotai raised his wrist and unleashed the mighty Apache helicopter.
The helicopter quietly appeared in the rape field, and Luo Tai stepped into the helicopter, took the equipment on it, and waited for the arrival of the German army!! (To be continued.) )
