The gunfire was a film in an instant, and the two German patrols of fourteen or fifteen people, without even realizing what was happening, fell under the random guns one after another - all in all, it was a very successful sneak attack, and the fourteen or fifteen German soldiers were eliminated at once.

But what does it mean to win tactically and defeat strategically?

That's it!

At least 6 kilometers from the front line of the confrontation, they exposed - no matter how many German troops were killed, they could not change a terrible fact:

It's over!

Zheng Yingqi didn't have time to blame the British soldiers who opened fire, and shouted: "Withdraw!" Evacuate to the No. 1 pick-up point! ”

But Brigadier General Max gave the order before him: "Evacuate to the No. 2 pick-up point!" ”

This position, the distance from the two contact points is not much different, speaking of which the No. 2 contact point is a little closer, the choice of the brigadier general can not be described as wrong, however, the No. 2 contact point is in front of the position of E Company, that is to say, the No. 2 contact point is in the defense area of the 1st Regiment of the German 363rd Division - the 1st Regiment was harassed by E Company a little allergic, they established more positions, observation points and minefields, compared to a little closer, the No. 2 contact point is the most dangerous!

Zheng Yingqi rushed over and tried to find the right way to tell the brigadier general what he had obtained from communicating with the patrol, but the British paratroopers had already changed lanes and rushed in the direction of the No. 2 contact point, and if they wanted to stop it, they had to waste several minutes of precious time, Zheng Yingqi could only smile bitterly when he looked at this scene.

"Jacob! Come on! Henry shouted at Zheng Yingqi, who sighed silently and followed the team that was rapidly evacuating.

The burst of gunfire just now was too loud, it was simply a dazzling fire in the night, and the Germans immediately put themselves on emergency alert after hearing the gunshots, and in the dark sky, there were flares everywhere - the first reaction of the Germans was that the Allies had suddenly crossed the river, but with the reports from the front and the follow-up investigation, they quickly knew what was going on.

An Allied force is moving from their hinterland to the front.

"Stop them!"

At the sound of the order, countless German troops moved.

……

The so-called agreement between Zheng Yingqi and the brigadier general completely turned into a joke after the gunshot, and at this critical juncture, the brigadier general trusted himself more than an American paratrooper with only the rank of sergeant - Zheng Yingqi tried to give advice to the brigadier general several times, but he was pushed away by the British paratroopers before he could even get close to the brigadier general's body.

Either the brigadier felt embarrassed to see him, or the brigadier didn't trust him, and the fragile right to speak was so easily gone, like a bubble in the sun, snapping......

Shattered.

The paratroopers soon encountered the first wave of resistance, and about a dozen Germans hurriedly built an extremely simple position on the road, blocking the group of British paratroopers on the way home.

"We don't have time!"

"We lack heavy weapons! Without mortars, without shells, we can't hit here. ”

"We have to take a detour, we can't hit the guns of the Germans!"

The British paratroopers had all sorts of reasons, and such reasons also affected the judgment of the brigadier general, who gave the order to bypass from here.

"Bastard! Grass! Zheng Yingqi almost jumped up after receiving the order to detour, and dared to detour at this time? Death!

It was night, and the terrain here was very easy for troops to deploy, and the Germans' temporary blocking positions were not heavily armed at all, and a "Ula" type charge could break through the position, even though the casualties would be higher, but it was definitely more cost-effective and safer than a detour.

But the choice of the British is a detour - a detour in the race against time?

"We're going to be killed by the British!" Zheng Yingqi groaned in despair, and he swore that he would never trust the British in the future.

Although he was unwilling and indignant in his heart, but in the face of a collective, the will of the individual was not even a small splash after all, and he had to take Henry and Bain to follow the British around, at this time Zheng Yingqi could only hope that the Germans would be more stupid and make some brain-filled actions to offset the mistakes made because of the stupidity of the brigadier general.

But......

Zheng Yingqi thought too much, the Germans did not make any unforgivable mentally retarded mistakes, they were constantly blocked or pursued by the Germans, and after several fierce battles in a row, Zheng Yingqi's worst fear happened:

They were separated from the large force of British paratroopers, and when they broke away from the entanglement with the Germans, they found in despair that the paratroopers led by Brigadier General Max had long been nowhere to be found in the dark, and only six people were left, including them.

And this is not the worst news, the most disgusting thing is that among the three Britons, there is a lieutenant of the British army.

"Oops, we and Brigadier Max are separated," the British lieutenant said in despair, especially after seeing that there were only five people around him, "Chase!" We must catch up with the brigadier or we are finished! ”

The British lieutenant's idea was simple: since he was lost, he would go straight to the No. 2 receiving point.

"No, we can't go to pick-up point 2 right now!" Zheng Yingqi hurriedly said: "There are only six of us, and the Germans will definitely be able to guess our approximate crossing point according to our route, at this time the road is full of Germans, if we bump into it, there is no way to live!" We should go in a different direction - let's go to the first answering point! ”

"What a joke!" The British lieutenant hurriedly said: "You said that this place is full of German troops, the six of us are running around here, and we will not be saved if we are bitten by the Germans, and the only way out is to find Brigadier Max and try to find them!" ”

"Nope! I won't forget to go to the No. 2 pick-up point," Zheng Yingqi said firmly: "I always think it's safer to go to the No. 1 pick-up point than to the No. 2 pick-up point - Bane, Henry, let's go!" ”

Henry and Bain's trust in Zheng Yingqi is unimaginable to these Britons, and they chose to follow Zheng Yingqi without hesitation, Bane was kind after all, and he said to the three Britons: "We followed Jacob to come back from the front of the German army to save you." ”

The British lieutenant's face was pale, although his rank was completely destroyed by Zheng Yingqi, but the two sides were the armies of two countries, and they had no ability to restrain at all, seeing Zheng Yingqi and the three of them walking in opposite directions, the lieutenant cursed angrily, and at this time a paratrooper hurriedly urged: "Sir, you have to make a choice." ”

"Keep up with them!" The lieutenant gritted his teeth and ordered, his heart was extremely aggrieved, he thought that only following Brigadier Max and them was the most correct choice, but he was not confident that he could find the brigadier general with two people everywhere, so he could only make the most aggrieved choice.

"They're following." Bane kept an eye on the back, and when he saw the Englishman coming up, he breathed a sigh of relief, and Henry snorted coldly and said, "That's the right choice for them." ”

Zheng Yingqi was in no mood to talk to Bane and Henry, because for him, this mission was already a failure.

There may be British paratroopers arriving safely, but there will definitely not be too many, compared to the nearly 130 at the time of departure, if half of them can make it back, then thank God - for Zheng Yingqi, this is a failure.

Of course, the most unsuccessful thing is that he has lost contact with the British, and I wonder what kind of mentally retarded mistakes these Britons will make in the next three most dangerous kilometers......

[Forget it, the most important thing for me now is to take Bane and Henry...... And the three bastards withdrew safely. 】

Zheng Yingqi took his thoughts out of the defeat and led the five people to constantly shuttle in the dark - the boat was small and easy to turn around, and the small team of only six people shuttled in the dark, plus Zheng Yingqi himself served as the top soldier, it was easy to avoid the search and position of the German army.

The three Britons gradually discovered the fact that they were unusually smooth, and even the stubborn British lieutenant secretly admitted that he was fortunately forced to choose to follow them, if he was stubborn, he was probably still in a fierce battle with the Germans at this time - the gunfire behind continued to ring, and it was obvious that Brigadier Max's evacuation route was not as calm as theirs, and even judging from the location of the gunfire, they might have been dragged somewhere by the Germans.

Zheng Yingqi can already see the flares in the air in the distance - there is the No. 1 contact point, the US military is afraid that these British paratroopers will get lost in the night, so they deliberately fire flares to guide the way, this action has lasted for several days, the Germans did not realize the intentions of the US military before, but tonight, they finally understood what the US military was doing.

Although they had confirmed that the fleeing Allied forces would cross the river from the positions of the 1st Regiment, after noticing the landing of American troops at Junction 2, the Germans gave the order to drive them back - a company of Germans pounced on Junction 1 in an attempt to drive the American paratroopers back from Junction 1.

The sound of gunfire made the six people who were rushing to the No. 1 connection point look solemn, seeing that there was less than a kilometer to arrive, but they did not expect that a battle broke out there.

"What should I do?" Henry looked at Zheng Yingqi.

The eyes of the other four were all focused on Zheng Yingqi - the same was true for the British lieutenant, and he didn't want to compete with Zheng Yingqi for this right to speak now.

"We must join them, otherwise we will have to break through the forward positions of the German army and cross the river, but without cover, we will be easily killed by the Germans when we cross the river!" Zheng Yingqi said the two choices they could face, and at the same time, according to the gunshots, he discovered a cruel truth:

The American paratroopers at the No. 1 receiving point did not mean to die with the Germans, listening to the sound of gunfire, they were already retreating.

"We are running out of time," Zheng Yingqi said: "You take off your German military uniforms first, and I will go over to investigate the situation first, and we must find a weak point to break through." ”

Henry said, "Let's go together." ”

"No, I can do it alone," Zheng Yingqi shook his head, and then said to the three Britons uneasily: "It's a matter of life and death for us now—I don't want any differences between the two of us at this time, no problem, Lieutenant?" ”

The British lieutenant said that he obeyed Zheng Yingqi's command, and the remaining two were naturally even more fine.

"Bane, contact the regimental headquarters, tell the friendly forces at the No. 1 contact point to stop talking for the time being, and tell them that we are going to join them."

"Yes."

Immediately Zheng Yingqi pounced towards the battlefield, although there were constantly flares rising into the air on the battlefield, but the range of flares that could be illuminated was limited, and the German troops who were fighting in the illumination were not easy to find Zheng Yingqi who came out from behind, but Zheng Yingqi, it was easy to see clearly the reality of the German army within the range illuminated by the flares, and he quickly discovered a weak point of the German army - it was an MG42 machine gun, responsible for flank cover, and it was also the weakest position of the German army.

As long as you take it, you can rush through the most dangerous distance of more than 100 meters to join your allies.

"Hope...... Don't be beaten into a hornet's nest by your own people. Zheng Yingqi muttered, and then turned his head back to Bane's position, at this time, the five people had already taken off the German uniforms, revealing the underwear inside, and when they saw Zheng Yingqi coming, they were waiting for Zheng Yingqi to say the good news.

"I've found a good position to break through, and once we've got that machine gun, I'll take cover there, and you guys will charge to the other side with your heads down - remember to keep identifying yourself and don't get killed by your own people."

"You're covering again?" Henry was dissatisfied, he looked at the three British paratroopers, but the other party's eyes were evasive, and he didn't dare to contact him at all, Henry couldn't help but mock: "I don't ask you to cover, what are you hiding?" ”

"Henry!" Zheng Yingqi glared at the guy who was talking strangely, and Henry snorted twice and stopped talking.

In the dark, five people stretched the formation and followed Zheng Yingqi towards the roaring machine gun, when they rushed over, they happened to meet the machine gunner to change the barrel, the machine gunner inadvertently saw the figure, did not realize that this was the enemy, and thought it was his own people, and shouted to himself: "Ammunition, go and get the ammunition!" ”

In response to him was a bullet from a submachine gun, one of which hit him in the head.

Zheng Yingqi pounced on the machine gun position after firing, and by the way, he helped the German machine gunner complete the unfinished action, and after replacing the barrel, he changed the direction of the machine gun and shouted to the five people behind him: "Come over!" ”

Henry pounced on the position, showed his head five or six meters away from Zheng Yingqi, and said to Zheng Yingqi: "You need a professional sniper to cover!" ”

The three Englishmen rushed ahead of the crowd, and Bane hesitated to stay, but Henry shouted at him, "Don't stay as a burden, operator!" ”

Bane then extinguished his intention to stay behind and followed the Briton in front.

Maybe it was because they were so excited that they didn't identify themselves, they were greeted by a shuttle bullet, and the British lieutenant was directly shot in the leg and fell on the battlefield, and Bane in the back hurriedly shouted: "Don't shoot your own people!" We are E-Link! Don't shoot! ”

After several more shots from the other side before he reacted, Bane hurriedly shouted the password: "Dawn! Dawn! Dawn! ”

"Sunshine!" The other side finally replied, then set up fire and took cover, and the two Englishmen dragged their lieutenant and Bane to pounce.

At first, the Germans thought that they were attacking madly, but after MG42 began to rain bullets on them, they finally realized what was going on, and immediately switched their fire to deal with the previous machine gun position, Henry took Kar98k to snipe two German soldiers in succession, and was about to find a third, Zheng Yingqi had already put down the machine gun and shouted at him:

"Withdraw!"

Henry didn't like to fight either, so he picked up his rifle and rushed out with Zheng Yingqi.

The Germans were furious, the bullets followed the two people who were running wildly, and the friendly troops on the opposite side also increased their cover, and the bullets rained down continuously, covering the two people who were going to come, but when they were less than 50 meters away from the receiving position, Zheng Yingqi heard the sound of the ground behind him, and he subconsciously looked back and saw that Henry had fallen to the ground.

At this time, he was already nearly ten meters away from Henry, for him, as long as he worked harder, he could pounce on the position of the friendly army in four or five seconds, but after seeing Henry hit the ground, Zheng Yingqi did not hesitate to turn around and counterattack, dragging the wide-eyed Henry to the back of a small hill.

"You're an idiot!" Henry scolded in shock, anger and emotion.
