Chapter 58: Automobiles
"Colonel!" When Qin Chuan found Colonel Slane, he was surprised to see that he was fiddling with an MP40.
"You've come just in time, Sergeant!" Colonel Slane said, "Stay with me, I've always wanted to see your marksmanship but couldn't, and today I don't think you'll let me down!" ”
"Colonel!" Qin Chuan said: "I hope you can stop attacking, we may have a better way!" ”
"No, Sergeant!" Colonel Slane replied: "We have run out of time, because I have just received the news that enemy planes will appear above us in a few minutes!" ”
The Germans had their intelligence channels, especially in Tobruk...... This was once the place where the Italian army was stationed, and of course the Italian army would leave some internal lines among the people before they withdrew, so the internal lines would pass on the information to the Italian army, and the Italian army would then transfer it to the German army.
"That's what I'm here for......" Qin Chuan said, "Maybe we can take advantage of the enemy's plane!" ”
"Utilization? How to use it? Colonel Slane couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this: "Sergeant, do you think that the enemy's fighters and bombers will listen to us?" ”
"No, Colonel!" Qin Chuan replied: "But...... If you were a British pilot, what would you rely on to identify friend or foe for bombing? ”
"The direction of the enemy's confrontation, the guidance of the reconnaissance aircraft, and our helmets!" Colonel Slane replied.
Colonel Slain was a little impatient, for he thought that the arrogant sergeant in front of him was wasting his precious time.
"What if we go into hiding?" Qin Chuan said: "Just like the reconnaissance plane that we used to hide from the British, cover ourselves with a poncho!" ”
"Sergeant!" Colonel Slain laughed, "You don't think you'll be able to escape the British bombardment, we have a lot of cars parked next to it!" ”
"That's what I'm going to say......" Qin Chuan continued, "What if we park our cars next to enemy lines?" ”
"So what?" Colonel Slane replied, "The British planes could easily blow up these cars...... Wait a minute! ”
At this time, Colonel Slane suddenly realized something, and then looked at Qin Chuan with his mouth open, and said for a long time: "Yes, they will drop all the bombs on the British line, you are really a genius, sergeant!" God, we are saved! ”
Then Colonel Slein did not hesitate for a moment, and gave a series of orders:
"Heavy get rid of that nasty 'mosquito'!"
As long as this thing is still in the air, it is possible to guide British fighters and bombers to carry out accurate bombing of the correct area, which the Germans cannot tolerate.
It was not difficult to get rid of the "mosquitoes", and the Germans immediately took the MG34 machine gun as an anti-aircraft machine gun, and the "whooshing" fired rows of bullets into the air...... Before, the Germans did not do this because they did not want to waste the already small number of bullets on the "mosquito", but now it is different, and Colonel Slein's order is to "use all the bullets to drive these 'mosquitoes' away!" So for a while, the two "Mosquito" fighters could only fly far and high, and one of them was even beaten to the point of black smoke.
"The offensive is canceled, and the whole army is covered by air defense!"
The purpose of this order was to make it impossible for British fighters and bombers to detect the target...... Without the guidance and instructions of a reconnaissance plane, it is not easy to find ground targets when they look down from the air and from a high-speed aircraft, especially since the ground targets are still camouflaged, so they can only look for other things, such as cars, as a reference to guess the enemy's location.
And then there is another command:
"Auto soldiers, find a way to get the car into the enemy's defense......"
"Colonel!" A motorist asked: "How can I get a car into the enemy's line!" They have machine guns and anti-tank guns ......"
Colonel Slane yelled angrily: "Think with your ass, or you can choose to rush in in a car!" ”
The method is actually very simple, that is, fix the steering wheel, start the car and press the accelerator with a heavy object...... The car would rush all the way to the enemy's lines, and the flatness of the desert area made it impossible for the car to think about whether it would roll over.
As for whether the car will be blown up or entangled in barbed wire, it does not matter, what matters is that the British pilots see it.
So with a "rumbling" sound, the cars sped towards the British defense line one by one.
As expected, the British bunkers immediately fired rows of bullets, and occasionally a few shells...... But very few of those shells hit the cars, perhaps because it was the British engineers who operated the anti-tank guns.
As a result, many cars managed to break into the British lines, but they were soon barbed by barbed wire...... The motor was still roaring when the car was stopped, and the wheels were still spinning, so they quickly dug a deep pit in the same place and sank themselves into it.
Qin Chuan didn't care about this, he went back to his company the same way, then found a place to lie down, and then took out a poncho from his backpack and covered it on his body like someone else.
"Sergeant!" Bazel was lying two positions away from Qin Chuan, and as a company commander at this time, he was not suitable to ask questions, but he still couldn't help asking, "What solution have you come up with?" Could it be that these cars rushed into the enemy's lines? ”
Werner interjected: "Should we put explosives and petrol in these cars!" ”
"Like in Tengeten?" "This is not going to work," said the baker, "because the enemy is hiding in the bunker, it is difficult for us to hit it, and we can only put explosives and gasoline in the rear compartment...... Even if you hit it, you won't be able to destroy it! ”
Then everyone stopped talking, and their eyes all looked at Qin Chuan, just waiting for him to uncover the mystery.
"Wait and see!" Qin Chuan said, then looked at the eastern sky and said, "They're here!" ”
The soldiers followed Qin Chuan's gaze, only to see the black shadows of several planes faintly appearing in the dazzling sunlight, and then more and more, more and more......
"God!" Someone couldn't help but exclaim: "There are so many of them this time!" ”
"yes!" Bazel replied worriedly: "They want to finish us all at once!" ”
"The British really think of us!" Werner said.
"Sergeant!" The big bear lying in front of Qin Chuan couldn't help but turn around and say to Qin Chuan: "Compared to being killed by the enemy's plane, I think it's better to try to rush up and break through the enemy's defense line......"
"No!" Qin Chuan replied: "Why aren't these planes here to help us?" ”
