Xu Jun felt that he had begun to enter the role. Now I can think about things in the way of a soldier. It feels really good to give orders, and the charm of power is really unstoppable. Now all the German soldiers looked at themselves with trust. But what can I do to save the current crisis?

Xu Jun looked at the position of the British with a telescope, thinking hard in his heart.

"Major Muller!" Xu Jun shouted, "Haven't you counted the data yet?" ”

Muller trotted all the way over. "Report to Your Excellency, the statistics are good, we now have 897 infantrymen, 37 junior officers, 28 non-combatants, and 142 artillery and assault engineers. There were 36 machine guns, 20 anti-tank guns. The artillery had 4 150-mm self-propelled guns, and they had not fired until now due to the sudden destruction of the division headquarters. The problem is that those cannons only carry grenades, and it seems that they can't be counted on against tanks.

We also have 6 75-mm light infantry guns, 7 37-mm anti-tank guns, 1 20-mm machine gun, 12 50-mm mortars. We have fourteen wagons of infantry ammunition, and the artillerymen's shells have two bases.

We still have two field kitchens, but we only have one day left for supplies. The rest of the supplies are still in the baggage camp, but we don't know exactly where they are.

I found two 221 wheeled armored vehicles, they were parked behind the hillside, so they were not destroyed, but the commander was killed on the hillside, and only two frightened drivers remained.

We also have 4 SK600 sidecar motorcycles and 2 Adler 2 ton off-road trucks. General, it looks like we can still fight. ”

"It's only more than 1,100 people, and it adds up to less than one regiment. Now we are no match for the British army on the opposite side, either in terms of numbers or firepower. I saw in the air in front of me that the opposing forces had at least two regiments, and no less than a battalion of tanks, and they also had a battalion of artillery, which indicated that we were facing a full-fledged British brigade.

The opponent's "Matilda" tank is not capable of withstanding the firepower we have now, and the first type is only equipped with 12. The 7mm machine gun is slow to crawl, so we can also use cluster grenades and zha kits against it, as long as it is separated from the infantry. But the Type 2 Matilda is a completely new type of infantry tank, which is completely different from the Type 1. Compared to it, the Model 1 is simply a light tank. Its 40 guns could penetrate the armor of most of our tanks, while we only had the 75mm guns of Tank IV to deal with it.

Fortunately, it seems that there are not many such tanks on the other side, and there should be only about ten of them, and two of them have been destroyed by mines. Now we have to figure out how to get rid of their remaining Matilda II, or we're going to end up badly. Xu Jun said with a frown.

Muller was taken aback, it turned out that the British army on the opposite side was so strong, and now it seemed that it was in big trouble. He asked, "General, what should we do?" ”

"What else can we do, we must stay here, any retreat now will bring a massacre. If the position is lost, it will directly lead to the destruction of the 7th Panzer Division. Now go and order the soldiers to conserve as much ammunition as possible, and not to fire until the enemy infantry attacks the machine guns. We're going to be ready to spend it with them, and we'll have to wait until we're in touch with the rest of the forces before we think about what to do next. Xu Jun replied.

"Understood," Mueller nodded, ready to go down and set up the defenses. Xu Jun suddenly thought of something and called out to Mueller.

"Major!"

"In, General"

"You immediately order the artillery on both flanks to immediately shift their positions. Tell them to act immediately, immediately! ”

"Yes, understood, General."

"The British Army is known for its good use of artillery, and now that those two artillery positions have been exposed, they will definitely be attacked by British artillery in the next battle. I can't lose any strength now. What a headache. Xu Jun thought.

"General, we have made contact with the remaining units of the 78th Artillery Regiment." Randolph came up and reported.

"Great! Pick it up for me right away. Xu Jun was excited, and finally he didn't have to fight with a water gun.

An anxious voice came from the earphones: "General Reinhardt, I am Lieutenant Colonel Srom, the commander of the 78th Artillery Regiment, and Major Hans has already told me about your situation. We haven't been able to get in touch with you before, and we're running in the wrong direction, and now I'm trying to get closer to you. Checkmate. ”

"So where the hell are you now, and where are you taking the 78th Artillery Regiment, Lieutenant Colonel Srom." Xu Jun felt depressed and ran in the wrong direction? Why didn't they run to the British?

"I ...... We are now 10 kilometres southeast of yours, and rest assured, Your Excellency, we are trying to arrive in 20 minutes. Ah no, we must have arrived in 20 minutes. Hearing Xu Jun's tone as if it was not good, the lieutenant colonel was a little scared.

"Then I'm waiting for you here, now your artillery is the key to our survival, do you understand, Lieutenant Colonel Srom. For 20 minutes, I'll look at my watch, and if you don't want to be called Major Srom, come over to me. Xu Jun told Randolph to cut off the conversation.

"Randolph! Continue to contact the other troops, all the troops in our vicinity, especially the 7th Battalion, must be in contact with them. ”

"Understood, General."

"Why did you run behind us? Didn't those artillery pieces originally come to our side? It's really fast, 10 kilometers away. Muller, didn't you say they were as slow as infantry? Xu Jun said to Major Muller with a wry smile.

Muller also showed a crying and laughing expression: "I don't know what is going on, they only have a few SDKFZ7 half-track tractors towing 88-mm anti-aircraft guns, and the other 105-mm heavy field guns are towed by 8-ton trucks." I don't know how they can outrun all of us. Let's wait for Commander Srom to come and listen to his explanation. ”

Xu Jun began to think in his head about how the British would resist if the 78 Artillery Regiment attacked him before the arrival of the regiment.

"It must be held out until the 78th Artillery Regiment arrives, and I really hope that the British will not attack before then." Xu Jun said to Mueller.

"Understood, General." Mueller replied;
