By the moonlight, Lyman had seen the backs of the English soldiers lying in ambush on both sides of the road, waiting for their prey to approach, as patiently as hunters. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

And with the sound of gunfire in the distance, and the incessant roar of anti-aircraft guns, Lyman was ready to take out these enemies. He picked up his weapon and aimed it at the back of his target.

The reality is that he now has only 9 soldiers in his hands, and he only has 10 people. And the other side has at least thirty-five, this is the information provided by the paratroopers who escaped back.

However, Lehmann had no intention of sparing these enemies, and at the moment when these British soldiers opened fire on the German paratroopers, the two sides were already doomed to be bitter against each other.

"Fire!" Suddenly, Lyman shouted out the order, and then at the same time as he shouted the order, the STG-44 assault in his hand rang out.

The British soldier, who was carrying the Bren light machine gun on his shoulder, heard the shouts of the Germans behind him, and before he could turn back, he was shot through the back by a bullet, and then collapsed on the spot and could not get up again.

The rest of the British soldiers struggled to see the enemy behind them, only to be killed one by one by the German paratroopers.

The huge disparity in firepower between the two sides compensated for the lack of German soldiers - the Germans had two STG-44s and an MP-40 submachine gun, which were capable of throwing large quantities of ammunition in an instant.

The British soldiers were obviously too shabby in their hands, they only had two Bren light machine guns, but they were not yet aimed at the target. The victory just now made them forget to defend their backs, and it also cost them dearly.

"Ahh The last British soldier was shot in the shoulder and struggled to get up when a German paratrooper rushed forward and stabbed him in the chest with a bayonet.

None of the 15 British soldiers were able to escape, and all of them were killed by Lyman's soldiers. And at this time, on the other side of the road, the British soldiers also realized the seriousness of the problem.

The British soldiers screamed and got up, bayonet in hand and tried to cross the road to support their comrades, but they were easily put down by two German soldiers who were ambushed on one side.

The two German soldiers who had been placed on the flank by Lehmann, but with the machine gun from the British machine gun position, saw the figure about to cross the road by the moonlight, so they did not hesitate to start firing.

Knocked down by the sudden flank fire, at least five men were knocked out, and the remaining British soldiers had to begin to retreat. However, Lyman had no intention of giving the soldiers a chance to retreat.

He shouted and led the charge with his weapon in hand, and threw a grenade at the other side of the road.

"Boom!" The huge explosion swept away everything around at once, including the hapless British soldiers, and some rubble and fence Zhuangzi.

It's a typical English farm on the edge, and if you come here during the day, you can see verdant meadows...... and horrific corpses.

"Retreat! Fall back! The British commander, realizing that he seemed to have run into the main force of the German paratroopers, hastily ordered a retreat.

But who knew that his shouting revealed his position, a grenade rolled down at his feet, and then the shouting of the British soldiers completely stopped.

Lyman rushed onto the roadbed with his STG-44 in his hand, stumbling over the corpse at his feet. It was only then that he saw the corpses of about 20 German paratroopers lying on the ground.

The German paratroopers were too disciplined and too spontaneous. The German paratroopers who discovered the road would spontaneously organize themselves and assemble to try to take control of the road.

And these German paratroopers, who spontaneously searched for other paratroopers, happened to run into this group of sophisticated British soldiers, so they paid the price of total annihilation.

It was precisely because of these German paratroopers who went forward and followed one another on the road that it directly affected the judgment of this group of British soldiers.

They believed that the German paratroopers would mainly gather along the road, so they were determined to wait in the vicinity.

Because it was too smooth, they didn't even have a guard post behind them to guard against the enemy behind them.

Just then, this gave Lyman and his paratroopers a chance to approach quietly and open fire on them.

It can be said that it was the bodies of those poor German paratroopers lying on the road that paralyzed this group of British soldiers and gave Lehmann and others the opportunity to strike a fatal blow.

"Ahh While Lyman was staring at the corpse at his feet in a daze, a British soldier who pretended to be dead jumped up and pounced on him to die with Lyman.

Before Lyman could shoot, another German paratrooper in the distance behind him shot the British soldier with a rifle.

The bullet grazed Lyman's arm and flew towards the target, knocking him to the ground. Blood even splattered on Lyman's face, and Lyman's first reaction was to lie on the ground.

"Silly X! You almost hit me! Lyman lay on the ground, and insults ensued as he thanked the other man for his help.

Lyman's men did not reply, smiled, put down their rifles with bayonets, and began to examine the bodies of the British soldiers at their feet.

"Steel!" In the distance, a dark figure shouted loudly to the place where Lyman's ten men were. The voice made Lyman relax and replied loudly, "Ambition! ”

As soon as Lehmann put down his gun, he saw dozens of German paratroopers standing up one after another in the distance, and the retreating British soldiers should have been killed by these German soldiers who had already touched here.

"Captain!" Seeing his superior, Lyman hurriedly saluted. Having already met the battalion headquarters, Lyman knew that he had finally established himself here.

Several men hurriedly began to set up a tent, because the battalion commander carried a map with him, as well as the targets of their battalion.

In addition, the appearance of a man who made Lyman cry and laugh eased everyone's tension at once—Gunther began to whisper again, but everyone was not as disgusted as before.

Because of the very rapid expansion of the paratroopers, there were some slight changes between the ranks and actual positions.

For example, the position of battalion commander that was supposed to be held by a major is now limited to officers of the rank of captain due to lack of manpower.

Lyman couldn't stand Gunther's nagging, so he scattered him and a few of his soldiers and placed them around as a guard post.

Then he got into the tent and told his battalion commander about the previous battle: "Sir, we killed about 15 British soldiers on the other side of the road, and about 150 meters to the west, there was a machine-gun position, which we destroyed, and the machine guns were with us. ”

The battalion commander nodded, then pointed to the conspicuous road marked on the map and said, "This time it is very rare, we were airdropped to a fairly correct position, and the right one made us not know what to do." ”

He scratched the road on the map with his finger, clicked on the small farm marked at one end, and said, "The mission has changed, we will take this farm and hold this road!" ”

"What about the British barracks on the other side of the road?" Lyman asked, pointing to the unidentified area on the other side of the road on the map.

"Okay, we're going to go over and destroy it, and then connect here and the farms to stop any British soldiers from passing through here." The battalion commander gave the order for tonight.

Looking at their pocket watches, the two of them checked the time. The battalion commander continued to order: "You take your troops, start from here, detour back to the flank of the unknown fortifications, attack and break in. ”

Lyman nodded, and the two men turned off the lights and got out of the tent. began their respective actions.

The Germans did not wait long, and soon the German paratroopers gathered their scattered soldiers all the way to the predetermined attack site.

Unlike the darkness in the German paratrooper theater, the basement in London, England, was brightly lit. Churchill anxiously awaited the final report, and he had to know from which direction the Germans were attacking.

"German paratroopers near Dover, Ashford, Canterbury...... The Germans chose the most fortified area of our fortifications, and it seems that we have won the battle. When the results came out, the British Army Chief of Staff Deere breathed a sigh of relief.

Dover was one of the most fortified areas in Britain because of the port of Dover, which was a very important war zone.

Here, the British defenders built a large number of fortifications, and most of the terrain here was indeed easier for the British defenders to lay out their own fortifications.

The chalk cliffs are one of the famous tourist attractions here, and the high coastal cliffs make much of the area unsuitable for use as a landing ground.

However, there is also a direct benefit of landing here, which is that it is too close. On a clear day, you can even see each other here......

Another advantage was that if they landed here, the Germans could quickly capture the adjacent Dover, and use the port facilities there to quickly replenish supplies to support the movement of large forces.

As for the British coastline defenses, the Germans put their treasures on the Stuka bombers and some other secret weapons.

"We are contacting the troops near Canterbury, and now there are German troops everywhere, and the losses of our troops cannot be counted in a short time." Deere was trying to find a way to regain control of his forces in the Dover area, and the German paratroopers disrupted his command, much to his disruptation.

"What about the armored forces? Move ahead of schedule tonight, and since you know that the Germans are aiming at Dover, drive over early! "Churchill had no intention of sitting still, he was going to do everything possible to drive the Germans out into the sea.

"Mr. Prime Minister, it is now dark, and letting the tank troops move in advance is easy to encounter German paratroopers on the one hand, causing confusion and losses in the dark......," Sir Dill replied helplessly.
