After all the machine guns on the commanding heights of the German forward positions were silenced, the Allies immediately launched a fierce attack on all fronts across the river.

"Da Da Da ......"

Machine guns began to fire again in the Allied positions.

The soldiers stepped forward one after another, carrying down the Allied machine gunners who had just been killed and wounded by the German heavy machine guns, and the dead were placed side by side to safety, bandaged and rescued alive, and then the reserve machine gunners supplemented and continued to shoot fiercely at the German positions, and formed several barrage blocking areas to cover the Allied forces to cross the river by bridge.

Major General William C. Leigh, commander of the 101st Airborne Division, ordered:

"The sappers continued to build bridges, and all the soldiers who could swim in the 3rd Airborne Brigade of the 306th Airborne Brigade in charge of the main attack went into the water first to assault and cross the river, at all costs.

All the attacking troops that were ready on the shore launched a quick attack, taking advantage of the fact that the machine guns on the commanding heights of the German positions were destroyed, and the reserve machine gunners had not yet filled their positions, and quickly took the commanding heights occupied by the Germans and turned them into their own use.

Order all firepower on both sides of the river bank to suppress the German fire hidden in the small buildings on the opposite bank, and cover the crossing of the river by the attacking troops. ”

Brigadier General Mariano Rivera La Paz, who was still angry and furious one second and wanted to send the ZG Independent Company to the International Military Tribunal, stared at the commanding heights of the German positions in the telescope the next second, and the explosion mode was set off from west to east.

Just now, the series of explosions on the German positions quickly stopped the bleeding of Brigadier General Mariano Rivera La Paz's bleeding heart. Just now, when he saw his attacking troops falling in rows, his heart was bleeding and almost broken.

In surprise, Brigadier General Mariano Rivera La Paz subconsciously looked up at the foggy sky and said in surprise: "God forbid!" Is it my Allied Air Force that has come to the rescue! ”

As soon as he said this, he immediately regretted his lack of experience.

The sky was foggy, dark and dark, and visibility was so poor, how could there be a plane coming to help.

And there was no roar of the engine in the air, and there was no whistling sound of the plane after it passed at a low altitude.

Sure enough, behind Brigadier General Mariano Rivera La Paz, several lieutenants of the 101st Airborne Division let out a low laugh.

Amid the sound of artillery, grenades, and gunfire, Brigadier General Mariano Rivera La Paz could not make out which officers were laughing, but he could hear it as mockery.

Just now, Brigadier General Mariano Rivera La Paz did not take the commander of the 101st Airborne Division, Major General William C. Leigh, in his eyes, which had already made some officers of the 101st Airborne Division dissatisfied.

The laughter was soft, but it was guaranteed to be heard by Brigadier General Mariano Rivera La Paz.

Brigadier General Mariano Rivera La Paz hurriedly changed his words and said, "No, no, no...... It wasn't the sound of planes, these damn explosions misled my hearing, it was supposed to be artillery fire from the rear of our troops that came to the aid and destroyed the German machine-gun positions. ”

But he immediately realized that he might have guessed wrong again this time, because there was no sound of shells whizzing behind him, only the roar of German Tiger and Leopard tanks on the other side of the river.

Moreover, the shells could not have been so accurate, each shot fell unmistakably in the middle of the three German machine guns.

An officer, who had risen from the rank of non-commissioned officer to major, said: "Judging by the series of explosions on the German positions opposite, it should be the explosion of their Type 24 wooden-handled grenades." But I can't understand why the grenades of the Germans exploded automatically for no reason, and from the west, sequentially, at intervals, to the east? ”

"Could it be that in the trenches of the German army, there are our soldiers? Could it be that the soldiers of the Separate Company and the E Company did a good job? ”

After the other officer finished speaking, he immediately denied his own judgment.

"However, this is not right, even if our soldiers attack the enemy trenches, it is impossible to blow up the German grenades in this way, after all, if you pull the grenade in such a small space, you will die with the other side.

Moreover, it is impossible to grasp the timing of the explosion with such precision.

The two dozen grenades exploded sequentially at very even intervals, adding up to not even half a minute, and even a well-trained soldier could not have done so accurately. ”

"There is a possibility that someone used a sniper rifle to blow up these German grenades," the major said.

But who has such marksmanship, who has such accuracy, who can explode dozens of machine guns and harvest the souls of nearly a hundred German soldiers in half a minute? ”

As soon as the major's words came out, everyone paused for three seconds.

General William C. Leigh said: "If the grenades on the German positions were really blown up by sniper rifles, then I believe that there is only one person in the world who can do it, and that is the major and company commander of the Chinese Independent Company, Yan Zhi." ”

Brigadier General Mariano Rivera La Paz twitched the corners of his mouth: "Is this person you are talking about Yan Zhi of the China Independence Company?" ”

Major General William C. Leigh nodded: "I have seen this major's marksmanship, and I guess many of those present have also seen it. I believe that if some grenades on the German positions were really hit by sniper rifles and exploded, then only Yan Zhi in this world could do such a precise strike! ”

At this time, the fog above the battlefield was thinned by the thermal energy of guns, cannons, and grenades on both sides, and the visibility gradually improved.

Suddenly, an Allied officer with a telescope exclaimed in surprise: "You see, on a small three-story building about 470 meters behind the commanding heights of the German army, there is an officer of our army, who seems to be holding an M1903 sniper rifle in his hand. ”

Everyone looked across with binoculars.

Sure enough, on top of a small three-story building, an Allied officer was standing with a gun in his hand, bombarding the German machine gunners in front of him.

The major looked at Yan Zhi from the binoculars and exclaimed in a low voice, "My God, it's really him." I once heard his soldiers say that under his sniper rifle gun, within 800 meters, no enemy could live"

"God, it's really Yan Zhi, the major company commander of the Chinese Independent Company."

The commander of the 101st Airborne Division, General William C. Leigh, exclaimed.

Sure enough, he used a sniper rifle to flatten the commanding heights on the German positions. President Roosevelt did not misread anyone, he exchanged 20 million US dollars for this major company commander in China's independence year, and he really made a lot of money! ”

Brigadier General Mariano Rivera La Paz lowered his binoculars and looked at Master William C. Lee with amazement: "What? We exchanged $20 million for this major company commander of the Chinese Independent Company? And the one that President Roosevelt personally wanted? ”

"Yes, that's him." Major General William C. Leigh looked at Yan Zhi with a sniper rifle in his hand and observed all parts of the battlefield, "Your 29th Airborne Division was able to land on Omaha Beach unscathed, and most of the credit is due to Major Yan, if it weren't for him leading the independent company to take out the artillery regiment that the Germans had placed on Omaha Beach, the Allied casualties would have increased dozens of times." ”

At this moment, the sniper rifle in Yan Zhi's hand fired out a 7.62×63mm Springfield rifle round, accurately hitting the Type 24 wooden-handled grenade on the waist of a German machine gunner.

"Boom!"

The German machine gunner, along with his deputy, flew into the sky along with the machine gun.

"Oh my God! Sure enough, it was him. ”。

At this moment, the Allied officers with binoculars said almost in unison.

Brigadier General Mariano Rivera La Paz's eyes widened even more, and his mouth opened in an O-shape.
