Chapter 629: The Ancient Castle

"Bang!"

"The seventeenth." On a renovated watchtower in Greenwich, a German sniper knocked out a minor National Guard officer from afar through the scope.

The sniper's name was Georg Frick, and after participating in the wars with Poland, Belgium, France, etc., he proved himself to be an excellent sniper, and subsequently joined a special squad of German paratroopers, and came to England with Student.

In the operation of Student taking advantage of Lord Gott's transfer of British reserves and empty fighters in the rear, he sent 2 Division paratroopers to parachute behind the Greenwich Line on a large scale, Georg's squad was assigned to capture the high-rise watchtower of an ancient castle.

The mission of their airborne regiment is to take this area of the ancient castle. The task of Georg's team is to give priority to capturing the watchtower, the highest point in the area next to the ancient castle, and occupy the commanding heights to provide support for the next attack.

Georg was a very skilled squad leader, and two hours ago, he used a small hacksaw for paratroopers to sawed off the wooden handles of six grenades, and then tied the six grenade warheads to the seventh grenade with two ropes, holding the only wooden handle, and threw the super grenade into the National Guard garrison room in the lookout.

With this explosion, Georg's team was able to eliminate more than 20 National Guard soldiers stationed in the watchtower tower in one fell swoop. After clearing the remaining six soldiers, Georg's squad immediately occupied the commanding height, and covered the rest of the paratroopers to seize the castle in less than an hour of battle.

Georg, who led his team of 12 to capture the watchtower, felt very sorry for the British National Guard soldiers who were originally stationed in the tower. The other party shrewdly stationed a force here with enough force to form a fire suppression, and even brought in two artillery pieces that were rare in the British sequence.

As a result, one super grenade from Georg took out most of the National Guard soldiers in the tower. So that the commanding heights of the watchtower after the British transformation and strengthening did not play any role at all.

"The eighteenth." With a single gunshot, Georg proudly counted for himself.

The 18th does not mean that he only killed 18 enemies, it just means that he used the extended Mauser sniper rifle in his hand to kill 18 enemies by sniping.

Relying on this sniper rifle, which was tested on the battlefield in Finland and tried by Simon, the "white death" of Finland, Georg almost reproduced Simon's original momentum in the Soviet-Finnish war.

Just as Simon frantically sniped a large number of Soviet soldiers, Georg now sniped many British National Guard soldiers with ease and pleasure.

Because the National Guard is issued with obsolete weapons, it is impossible to have a sniper with a sniper rifle and a magnifier. Therefore, Georg is now relying on his distance enough to have no scruples, and he is not afraid to expose his position and shoot the National Guard with a large number of sniper rifles.

Relying on the magnifier, he could clearly see the contours of the British soldiers' bodies. But in the eyes of the other party, Georg was just a small dot, and it was impossible to aim, let alone counterattack.

"I really don't understand why these militiamen recruited by the British, since they know that they can't beat us, don't run away." After sniping 18 National Guard soldiers in a row who were hiding in a smaller annex to the north of the castle, Georg rolled over the window, scratched his head against the wall and smiled.

The occupation of the ancient castle has been completed, and there is only one annex left, which can be captured at any time. The regimental headquarters had also issued an order, and after 30 minutes of repair, the whole regiment began to attack the annex building.

Therefore, even if Georg was using his rest time and extra overtime to snipe British soldiers.

Now there are about 10 minutes left before the end of the rest time stipulated by the regiment headquarters, and Georg, who has already sniped many targets, hurriedly seized the time to take a rest.

"Presumably the commander above them won't let them retreat." A paratrooper carrying a flamethrower leaned against the window on the left side of the tower and responded to Georg's Road.

He was originally the protagonist responsible for consuming the soldiers in the enemy room when capturing the watchtower. But since Georg relied on a super grenade to deal with the British soldiers in the room, the paratrooper named Ellis, who carried a flamethrower on his back, followed him with soy sauce all the way.

When he cleared the remaining enemies in the watchtower, he also took the combat pistol that was standard for paratroopers in his hand and fired a few shots along with him.

But when he completely captured the watchtower and began to exert fire support from the vantage point, he could only watch Georg shoot with only a flamethrower and a Mauser combat pistol.

This is not the most painful, the most painful thing for Ellis is that Georg has to report every enemy he snipes. Seeing that he didn't have to worry about encountering enemy snipers at all, and wantonly beat Georg of the opposite National Guard to show off his results, Ellis almost had the heart to rush up and beat Georg.

Of course, Ellis accosted Georg at this time, naturally for a purpose.

"Georg, since you're going to rest, give me your gun." Ellis tentatively asks for a sniper rifle.

After all, he also wanted to experience the thrill of relying on a high-powered mirror to wantonly snipe at the enemy.

Anyway, the possibility of being counter-sniped is almost zero, and in the absence of a sniper on the opposite side, who would not like to shoot unilaterally by relying on the scope.

And for the Germans, ammunition was not a problem, bullets were there. Although the number of carriers at one time was limited, the battle had come to an end, and the French and Norwegian allies were about to launch a full-scale counteroffensive.

As soon as the allies rushed up, Georg and these paratroopers completed the task. At that time, if you don't run out of bullets, do you still expect bullets to give birth to children?

It was also easy to replenish the ammunition, anyway, the landing ground had completely become the rear of the Allied landing force, and a large amount of supplies could be easily transported. In terms of ammunition, the Confederate camp was much more generous than the British on home because of the frenzied expansion of the army.

However, even though Ellis felt that Georg had no reason to refuse him, the other party still refused his request.

"No, a sniper rifle is not a toy, and it can't be borrowed from you. If you really want to use it, I can help you get one when you go back to camp. Georg shook his head and refused mercilessly.
