Chapter 38: The Road of Blood (2)
Released "Breakout? Stanhall turned his face to look at Kaoririch.
"That's a problem, but I don't think it's likely. ”
"They don't have a chance to break through at all, our troops on the island are concentrating here, and reinforcements are coming. If half an hour ago, they might have had half a chance, but now, they don't have any chance to get out of our hands. Second Lieutenant Bill said, pointing to the road.
A huge convoy of thirty trucks had just arrived, and the assault infantry with MP38 submachine guns on their backs jumped out of the trucks at a rapid pace to the roar of the sergeant majors, and the fast squad platoon had begun to line up on the side of the road for roll call.
"That's the four assault infantry platoons left on the west side of the island, I didn't expect it to come so quickly, I just spoke to them half an hour ago. ”
Kaoririch turned his head and said with a smile.
Publish "This island is not big, Captain. ”
Stanhall also smiled and turned his face.
"Wolf, you go over and get in touch and bring Ensign Hansen and Rudolph here." Kaoririch ordered.
Issued "Yes, sir. ”
Wolf saluted and turned to run towards the convoy.
Release" is my two company commanders. ”
Kaoririch explained to a dazed Steinhall.
"Now let's move on to the previous discussion, I think we just have to find a way to force our way in, and we have to settle this battle before the British break through." ”
After giving a brief introduction to the current battlefield situation to the two newly arrived subordinates, Kaoririch said solemnly while holding the map in his hand.
Post "Do you still think that the British will break through in the afternoon?" If they break through, the night is not more suitable for them to act. The darkness of the night is also an obstacle to our operations, and their hope of escape will be greater, sir. ”
Second Lieutenant Nimitz, encouraged by Kaoririch, finally let go, and for the first time he spoke frankly in front of his superiors, and it was clear from the sparkling eyes of his sparkling eyes how excited the otherwise shy young officer was.
Publish "Nimitz, your words are quite reasonable, but have you ever thought about it, the problem of ammunition for the British. Kaoririch said, holding his shoulder.
Publish "Ammunition? ”
Released "Yes, ammunition, they can't have unlimited logistical supplies, they are now using the ammunition they brought last night. After a night of fighting, they have already consumed a lot, and with this hour and a half of fighting, how long do you think their supplies will be able to hold out? Kaoririch took off his military hat and threw it on the front of the car.
"I see, sir, they're going to launch an attack before they run out of ammo and wait for a breakout." ”
Posted "Great judgment, Second Lieutenant Nimitz. ”
Kaoririch nodded approvingly and continued: "Another concern for me is how long my third row will last. ”
He then turned his gaze apprehensively to the woods, where there was the intermittent sound of machine gun and rifle fire.
"They had only carried half a base of ammunition for more than an hour, and as reported in the last call before they cut off contact, the intensity of the fighting was high. Second Lieutenant Hansen, the commander of the second company, said with a frown.
"Even if they collect ammunition from the brothers who died in battle, I think they can only hold on to two hours of continuous combat. Wolf chimed in.
"So the intensity of their firefights there has weakened, and now only sporadic gunfire can be heard. Kaoririch said in a deep voice.
Publish "I know my men very well, and they won't give up even if they fight until the last minute." My fear is that, as things stand, if the British break through, they will stop it at all costs. ”
Publish "They don't think about whether they will be able to stop those enemies at all, if it were me, I would do the same, but ......" Nimitz heard the seriousness of the problem.
Posted "They will be annihilated, before our rescue team arrives." Second Lieutenant Rudolph gritted his teeth.
Publish "It's a shame for officers to see a platoon of troops wiped out right under our noses." Bill looked nervously at Stanhall.
"It's not the point yet, Second Lieutenant Bill, it's the point if one of the Britons runs away at the end......," Wolf said.
"Our entire ambush operation this time is considered a failure, gentlemen, no matter how many of their troops we have eliminated. Stanhall took Wolf's words and said solemnly.
Post "Is it that serious, sir?" Bill looked at the commander in surprise.
Issued "You don't imagine the severity of the consequences, this is an order sent directly to the regiment by the high command." Stanhall replied coldly.
Post "Got it, sir......"
Sensing the danger, Bill said eagerly to Kaoririch, "So what do we do now?" I'll see if I can launch another assault at any cost. ”
Post "It's not okay, you should know it's suicide." Stanhall scolded in a deep voice.
"But we now have enough troops, if we pull the skirmish line a little more, extend the attack line by another fifty meters, and add smoke grenades to cover it." ”
"How many people are you going to send up to die, is one company enough?" There were five or six machine guns there, and a company of assaults was not enough for them to strafe at once, not forgetting that they also had snipers. ”
Second Lieutenant Hansen's face changed suddenly, and he was now very disgusted with this second lieutenant who proposed the kind of plan to take the lives of his subordinates.
Release: "Smoke will block the view of their machine guns and snipers. ”
Posting "will likewise block our view, where did you go to military school?" Rudolph was a cheer for his colleagues.
"I'm just making a preliminary suggestion, sir. Bill turned to his boss for help.
"We now add the captain to bring the total strength of the commando team is less than two battalions, last night's casualty figures have made the above very dissatisfied, if there are any unexpected losses here, you and I will be ready to go to Norway to guard the bunker in the second half of our lives." ”
Stanhall was very disappointed in this subordinate, who was usually quite likable, but now behaved like a panicked idiot.
Post "Can't you just come up with a constructive suggestion?" Second Lieutenant Bill. Hafogen said coldly.
Post "Then you see what you can do, Sergeant Major. ”
Post "You are the chief, it is your job to control the situation, I am just the executor." ”
Post "Watch your words, Sergeant Major, you're talking to an officer. ”
Post "I'm telling the truth, my comrades are still bleeding there, they are waiting for our rescue, and you only know how to come up with some stupid ideas to send more people to their deaths." ”
Post "Bastard, you dare to insult me. ”
Post "I'm telling the truth. ”
The sergeant major and the second lieutenant glared at each other viciously like two enraged fighting cocks, their hands clasped on their pistol holsters at their waists, as if they were ready to draw their guns and fire in the next second.
Post "Shut up, Havogan, and you, Bill. Shut up, God, you two bastards have something in their heads. ”
Kaoririch angrily slapped the hood of the car, startling everyone, especially the two fighting cocks, who were now shaking and bowing their heads as if they had been poured a basin of cold water on their heads.
"Needless quarrels won't solve anything, and we have to come up with a workable plan as soon as possible." Stanhall hurriedly stepped up and started a round.
Posting "yes, what's the use of arguing, every minute we delay, our people are in more danger." Ensign Hansen patted Hardroot on the shoulder.
But we really don't have a better idea now, we only have mortars and infantry small arms, and of course we will be helpless in this situation. Rudolph said, scratching his head.
"It would be nice if we had tanks, but now we only have trucks, not even armored vehicles." Nimitz said, shaking his head.
Post "Wait a ......"
Kaoririch turned his face sharply to look at Nimitz.
Post "Ensign, what did you say earlier?" ”
Post "I said it would be nice if we had tanks now, but ......"
Post "I thought of ...... Ladies and gentlemen, I think I have a plan, and you will see ......."
A smile finally appeared on Kaoririch's face, and he jerked his pencil and traced it on the map, and a group of officers hurriedly gathered around.
"It's all secured, and I think it's supposed to be a release, and Havogen pulled the string that tied the sack, and then patted the sack full of dirt and gravel.
The idea seems to be feasible, I really don't know how the captain came up with it. ”
With a cartridge belt around his neck and two cartridge boxes in his hands, Wolf handed the cartridge boxes to the soldiers in the truck, and then climbed neatly onto the truck.
Release "Time is running out, we have to go as soon as possible. Hansen shouted loudly from the cab.
Post "I know, I know, just wait a little longer, and I'll be right away." ”
Bill dragged the barrel of an MG34F gun into the back window of the cab in the truck compartment and desperately stuffed it, maybe it got stuck somewhere, and he couldn't get it in.
Post "You idiot, you're not even as good as a private, you can't stuff it out of the cab, you come down and let the soldier do it." Stanhall stood under the car and cursed loudly.
Ready to post? Get ready, let's go. ”
Kaoririch climbed out of the command vehicle next to him, he was now in a combat suit, wearing a steel helmet, a full infantry belt, his artillery type Luger hanging from his waist, and a 98k rifle in his hand.
Post "I think you'd better reconsider my suggestion, Captain. ”
Stan Hall expressed reservations about Kaorich's decision from the start, he did not object to this kind of bravery in battle, which was a natural authority given by a German officer, but he still felt that Kaorich's personal command of this high-risk assault was a bit rash and unnecessary.
It was announced that the captain was the supreme commander present, and that it was only right that he was in the rear to fully organize and direct the operation, and besides, no one would doubt the captain's courage because of this.
Release "I said it, I'm not good at commanding regular combat, I'm only good at fighting my own way, and my soldiers are like that. ”
Kaoririch took off his steel helmet and brushed his hair, then put it back on and fastened it.
"Remember, Lieutenant, wait until my signal is given and act as soon as we have planned, and be quick. ”
Post "Remember, Captain, a white flare means fire suppression, a green flare will charge, and a red flare will ......"
Release" means that the operation has failed, and you must muster all your firepower to blow up that church and the British inside. ”
"I'm sure I won't see this, Captain. Still, I think you should stay and command the battle here, and your men can command the operation in your place. ”
Post "I said it, my decision will not be changed, my people are waiting for my rescue, I don't want to continue to dwell with you over this issue, Lieutenant. ”
Kaoririch took the binoculars from Wolf's hand and hung them around his neck, and Wolf helped him hang the grenade bag on his belt.
"Ready, Wolfe." ”
The release is ready to go, sir. ”
Post "Good. ”
Kaoririch turned to Steinhall and smiled, "I'll leave the command here to you, Lieutenant, remember my signals." ”
Post "Don't worry, Captain, I hope you can be successful. ”
Stanhall nodded vigorously with a serious expression, although he did not understand Kaoririch's decision, he still admired the ability and courage shown by the captain from the bottom of his heart.
"I hope you'll have a drink after this battle, Captain." ”
Stanhall gave a solemn military salute.
Post "Thanks, Lieutenant. ”
Kaoririch straightened his face, returned the same solemn salute, and then turned and walked towards the truck.
Post "Is everyone clear about their tasks?" ”
Kaoririch stood on the pedal next to the cab and asked the officers and men in the compartment.
"Clear, sir. ”
Post "Very well, let's go. ”
Kaoririch slipped into the cab and suddenly realized that the young Army Cadet Staff Officer was already crowded into the passenger seat.
Post "Don't you think it's a bit crowded here?" ”
Released Kaoririch frowned.
Post "Sir, I want to be able to participate in this operation"
Second Lieutenant Nimitz had a pitiful expression on his face, but his tone was firm without hesitation.
Post "Hmm. Kaoririch tilted his head and stared at the midshipman's face for a moment, then patted the car's dashboard gently.
Post "Drive, Wolfe. Kaoririch ordered loudly with a smile.
