116 Opportunities for the French
"Schultz, you take your men to set up a cordon 50 meters ahead, Adler, you take a few people to occupy the tower in front of you as an observation post, and the others rest in place. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"I can finally stop and rest."
"Do you have any cigarettes over there, give me one."
"Whoever still has water over there, my kettle is rotten."
"What are you doing sitting, hurry up and make a fire, I'm soaking wet, I'm sick to death."
......
"Let the people of the third battalion prepare to cross the river, the rest of the troops will rest in place, and after the rest is completed, move closer to my direction, don't all disperse, now our people are all mixed with the people of the other troops."
Getting out of the armored command car, Li Ling stretched a big lazy waist, looked up at the sky, this ghost weather, a storm a second ago, and a sunny day at this moment, if it wasn't for the muddy ground, who would believe that there had been a torrential rain here?
"Can I please?"
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, make way for the chief."
Seeing that a major officer had stepped down from the tank that had been accompanying them in the battle, and he was about to sit down here, a second-class corporal gathered around the fire quickly stood up and instructed a soldier next to him to give Li Ling a place.
Although they had never seen the tank in front of them fire all along, the infantrymen were still grateful.
Street fighting like this is actually a kind of torment for these infantry, but if a tank follows them, their hearts will be much more stable, after all, with such a mobile bunker and heavy fortress by their side, this kind of instant security is unimaginable.
However, these people obviously didn't know, in fact, the tank that Li Ling stayed in was just an armored command vehicle, although it seemed to look exactly the same as other tanks, but in fact, in order to install more communication equipment and provide enough space in the cabin, the gun of this tank was actually just an ornament, a fake, and only one barrel.
"Don't be so polite, just sit down."
Li Ling was about to sit down cross-legged when he suddenly snorted, and then he felt a warm liquid on his face.
"Hidden, hidden!"
"Sniper!"
"Find cover!"
......
The corporal remained in his previous position, his body still standing, and he did not die immediately.
Blood kept spurting out of his neck, bullets piercing his neck, he was terrified and wanted to raise his hand to cover the wound on his neck, but his hand never lifted again, the rapid loss of blood made the muscles lose strength, and the darkness was devouring him step by step.
The German soldiers who were originally sitting together quickly scattered to find cover, while Li Ling quickly ran back to the rear of his tank, he did not dare to enter the tank through the hatch at the top of the turret, the snipers would choose, they would definitely give priority to high-value targets, only his own rank was the highest in this vicinity.
Although I don't know why the sniper didn't kill himself just now, but instead hit the corporal who was almost a few tens of centimeters from him, but then, the sniper hiding in the shadows is afraid that he will not choose other targets.
Bang bang bang!
Li Ling's fist slammed the hatch on the left side of the tank's turret, and soon, the hatch was opened, and he quickly got in, but the hatch he entered was not immediately closed, but left a small gap.
"Hey, soldier, look for the enemy! Tell me where he is when you find out. ”
Through the gaps left, Li Ling shouted to several German infantrymen hiding next to the tank, but his order obviously had no chance to be carried out.
At the moment when Li Ling had just finished speaking, the German infantrymen were immediately killed on the spot by the machine-gun bullets fired from the front of the tank.
"!"
Li Ling hated itchy, why did the enemy suddenly appear at this time, he had obviously searched the neighborhood before, and he also saw a group of infantry moving forward a lot, they must have set up a cordon, but why did the enemy appear for no reason?
"Order the first battalion to move closer to me, and the second battalion to move closer to the third battalion, there is an enemy ambush near here!"
"Parker, start slowly, move forward at low speed! As soon as the machine gun finds something suspicious, immediately open fire! But be careful to save ammo! ”
"Inform Guderian that I am going to concentrate on my first battalion, but the second and third battalions may be delayed, ask him to help take care of it, especially the third battalion. In addition, the defensive vacancies left by the withdrawal of my troops were filled by his men as soon as possible. ”
After a series of things were arranged, Li Ling looked at the unfolded combat map, and he couldn't understand why he was ambushed at this time.
Didn't the French have long been frightened? They withdrew from the area almost without much defense, because they were afraid that the scene on the other side of the river would reappear, but how could the French, who had already fled, suddenly appear in the city and be so elusive?
In fact, Li Ling ignored an extremely important factor when thinking about the problem, that is, people!
Li Ling had the impression that the French army was simply a bunch of waste, the French army, which was known as the world's first, was bulldozed in just a month, and everywhere the German army went, there were surrendered French troops, so Li Ling subconsciously thought that the French army had no combat effectiveness at all.
It is precisely because of his preconceived notions that he completely forgets that even in the animal world, even when all the bison see that the lion should choose to run away, there will always be individual bison that should have become food to fight back, and even cause the death of the lion.
It is true that the French army was afraid of the Germans, but this does not mean that the commander of the French Meuse line was an idiot.
When the Germans officially launched the river crossing operation, the French commander immediately demanded that the bridge be blown up, but he found that none of the explosives that had been arranged had gone off, and the Germans had obviously removed all the explosives!
At such times, the French commander did not have any decent heavy weapons in his hands to strike at the German troops, and the Germans on the opposite side had more artillery fire than his own, and in such a situation it was clearly not suitable to block the Germans on the riverbank.
His troops can't stop the German army at all, but he can make the German army take off a layer of skin even if it doesn't die!
He decisively ordered his troops to fight and retreat, but at the same time set up an ambush in what appeared to be an abandoned building, waiting for the Germans to slack off before dealing a fatal blow to the Germans.
Since by that time the forces of both sides were already staggered, and the Germans simply had no way to use their superior firepower to strike, the opportunity for the French would really arise......
