After the French realized that the Germans were not capable of knocking out their own anti-tank guns, they thought that they could use those four anti-tank guns to defeat the Germans, so they did not think about a night attack.

The Germans, on the other hand, were much more relieved because they were connected with support, and they did not think about wasting the lives of their soldiers and raided the French anti-tank positions at night.

So this night, except for the gunshots and screams that rang out from time to time, it was generally harmonious.

Early the next morning, German positions.

"Hey, newcomer." Hoffman shook Anek.

"Hmm......" Anek rubbed his eyes in confusion and looked at Hoffman suspiciously.

Hoffman looked at Anek, shook his head helplessly, and said, "Newcomer, you were on your last shift last night, right?" ”

Anek froze, then nodded.

"You're asleep." Hoffman said speechlessly.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Anek said in a panic, "I, I'm too sleepy, just ......"

"I was on duty for you last night, don't do it again next time." Hoffman stooped back to his position and said lightly, "You have to know that the life of the whole class hangs on the sentry. ”

"Thank you...... Thank you. Hoffman scratched his head wryly, "And, the ......"

"Don't worry, I won't tell the squad leader." Hoffman curled up with the gun in his arms, closed his eyes and said, "It's about to dawn, you pretend to be a sentry, I'll sleep for a while." ”

Anek glanced at Hoffman gratefully, then grabbed his gun and sat in the trench, looking at the small mirror in the trench, pretending to be on duty.

After another half hour or so, the sky changed from misty to faintly bright, and the positions of the two armies, which had been as silent as death, were reactivated.

Gro opened his eyes, looked at his watch, and then stood up to wake his comrades up one by one.

"Hey, guys, wake up, it's half past five." The squad leader kicked Hans in the ass, "I guess you don't want to be stabbed in the stomach with a bayonet by the French, do you?" If you don't want to, get up! ”

"Oh hi, good morning squad leader!" Anek greeted Gro with an unnatural expression.

"Hi buddy, hello." The squad leader replied with a smile, he didn't notice Anek's unnatural look, "You're very serious, man, you're great!" It's been a long time since I've seen a newcomer so serious about sentry! Everyone should learn from our Anek! ”

Hearing this, Anek's face became even more embarrassed.

"Hoffman, why are you tired?" Gro walked over to Hoffman and asked, confused.

Hoffman didn't answer, just shook a bag around his waist towards the squad leader, and there was a "jingle" sound similar to a bell inside.

Inside were a dozen or so shells.

"Oh, man." The squad leader patted Hoffman on the shoulder with a smile on his face, "You're going 'hunting' again?" How many are you going to kill this time? ”

"The French are so stupid, if it weren't for the snipers in the company who robbed me, this bag wouldn't have fit."

"Alright, I'll allow you and Anek to sleep a little longer." The squad leader said as he left the trench to make it convenient, "Anek is a good fellow! ”

The German side was "happy", and the French side was uncomfortable.

No sooner had Bruno gotten up from his camp bed and left his field tent to wash than he heard bad news from his adjutant.

"Battalion commander, last night we suffered heavy losses, 53 soldiers and 4 officers were killed."

"What?!" Bruno took the toothbrush and shouted at his lieutenant in shock, spraying foam on his face by the way, "So many dead? The Germans attacked us at night? ”

"Uh, no, the Germans didn't sneak up on us." The adjutant wiped the foam from his face in embarrassment and replied, "It must have been their snipers, and almost all of the dead were killed by one shot." ”

"Sniper?" Another look of foam, "Can a sniper see a ghost in this dark night?!" ”

"I don't know." The adjutant wiped the foam from his face again.

Bruno angrily shoved the toothbrush back into his mouth, and said vaguely as he brushed his teeth: "I'll make them pay!" ”

Returning to the side of the German position, after the company commander got up, he immediately began to contact the "vulture" troops.

"Vulture vulture, this is the jaguar, please reply when you hear it, over."

Instead of making two calls with the "Gray Wolf", contacting the vultures who were farther away only called once and were answered.

"Jaguar, this is a vulture, over."

"Vultures, jaguars have suffered heavy losses, attrition has reached a third, request for reinforcements, over."

"The vultures understand that a support group is being arranged for you, and it is expected to arrive at you in half an hour, done."

He put down the microphone of the walkie-talkie, looked at the French position, and laughed happily: "Haha, without the anti-tank gun, I'll see what you do to hit my infantry fighting vehicle!" ”

"Haha, without the infantry fighting vehicle, I'll see what you can do to block my attack!" On the French position on the other side, Bruno, who had finished washing, looked at the German position and laughed as well.

"Battalion commander, the first and third companies are ready, and they can attack at any time!" The adjutant came to Bruno's side and said respectfully.

"The offensive begins! This time I'm going to see what else can save the Germans! Bruno ordered with a sinister smile.

With Bruno's attack, the order was given, and a green flare and a red flare were fired into the sky at the same time, which represented artillery preparation.

The French mortar groups again began firing, and one shell after another flew towards the German positions with a sharp whistle.

After the artillery fire was prepared, more than 200 French soldiers jumped out of their positions and rushed across the road to the German positions on the opposite side.

"Guys, hold on! Our support is already on the way! The German company commander shouted cheers at the soldiers beside him as he tilted his MP40 submachine gun at the French.

Although the Germans had fierce firepower, without artillery support, they were outnumbered by the French.

Soon, the French once again rushed into the German positions and fought with the Germans.

Seeing that the position was about to be lost, German support units finally arrived on the battlefield.

That's a "swarm of vultures" consisting of four HS-129 attack aircraft and two ME109s!

"The vulture calls the jaguar, the vultures have entered, please indicate the target of the attack, over!"

The voices of German pilots were heard on the tactical radio in the company headquarters.

"Their artillery positions! Their artillery positions! Left...... Damn, guard squad! Get on with me! After a few hurried words, the company commander found a hole in the left position, and hurriedly rushed there with the guard squad.

"Vultures understand!" The German attack aircraft pilot agreed, and then maneuvered the plane, together with three other attack aircraft, to pounce on the French artillery position.
