Chapter 924: Feelings

"General!" Cook Yi held Zhang Chi's hand tightly and said, "I knew it, I knew that you would definitely come to save us!" ”

It turned out that Cook saw that the "Omaha" beachhead could not be attacked for a long time, and knew that the 1st Division of the Zoaf Corps had suffered heavy casualties on the beachhead, so he personally boarded the "Omaha" beachhead to take command in an emergency. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

However, the situation on the "Omaha" beachhead was very serious, and this was not something that could be solved by Cook coming up, and the 1st Division of the Zoaf Corps almost collapsed several times...... This is not to blame for the 1st Division, more than 3,000 people were sacrificed in more than 10,000 troops, and countless were wounded.

What's more, the Germans were firing on them from three sides, which left them with little hope of victory on the beach, and it looked like they were wasting the lives of their soldiers.

If it had been before, that is, the Zoaf Corps under the leadership of French officers, it would have retreated long ago in this case...... The French officers themselves were afraid of death.

Now, it can be regarded as a miracle that the 1st Division of the Zoaf Corps has been able to hold out until this time.

What kept the Zoaf Corps going was Kukyi's emphasis over and over again: "Hold on, the Chinese army will definitely come to our rescue!" ”

Later, Zhang Chi asked Xu Yun, who was also fighting on the "Omaha" beach, and Xu Yun said with a little embarrassment: "Actually, even I didn't believe that the new 1st Division would come up at that time, because there was nowhere to go!" So...... At that time, I felt sorry for these Algerians, because they always thought that the Chinese would come to save them and rescue them from this predicament! I didn't expect them to be right......"

This is a trust, a trust that can cost lives.

This also proves the correctness of Zhang Chi's desperate airborne "floodplain", otherwise, the expeditionary force will have to live up to this trust of the Zoaf Corps, and this trust will soon turn into hatred, because they will have a feeling of being deceived.

Zhang Chi patted Kukyi on the shoulder and said, "This is what we should do, isn't it?" We are comrades-in-arms! ”

"Yes!" Cook nodded heavily: "It's a comrade-in-arms, and it's also a brother!" ”

Zhang Chi didn't say anything more, he understood Cook Yi's true feelings at this time...... You know, it was a narrow escape, how many times in life will this happen?

At this time, Zhang Chi should probably tell Ku Keyi more details, such as the Allied army's plan to carry out indiscriminate shelling of "Omaha", and it was Zhang Chi who led the new 1st Division to solve the problem of Zoaf's corps from the fire pit.

But Zhang Chi didn't say anything.

This is not a high-spirited and bright festival to do good deeds without leaving a name...... It would be a fool to do good deeds between countries without leaving a name.

The reason why Zhang Chi didn't say it was because he knew that Kukyi and these people were talking about feelings, and in this case, if they did a good deed, they shouldn't come out of their own mouths, and the effect would be much better if they were passed on from others to the ears of Kukyi or the Zoaf Corps.

As for whether the news can get out......

Zhang Chi did not have to worry about this at all, because every soldier in the new 1st Division, from top to bottom, knew that they were carrying out a time-limited mission, and as long as the mission was not completed after this time, then the Allies would carry out indiscriminate bombing of "Omaha".

That's enough information to guess why the Chinese military is risking their lives like this, as long as you're not a fool.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Kukyi to find him again.

"General!" Cooky's jaw trembled with excitement: "I heard that if you don't succeed in capturing the beach of 'Omaha', the Americans will carry out indiscriminate bombing?" ”

"Hmm!" Zhang Chi pretended to be careless and nodded: "The important thing is that we have already taken it, isn't it?" ”

"I wonder what's going on?" Cook asked.

"You know!" Zhang Chi replied: "If there is a problem with the 'Omaha' beachhead, it will affect the entire plan, which is related to the fact that the Allies will be divided into two and cannot communicate with each other, and after the arrival of German reinforcements, they will be attacked from several sides or even rushed back to the sea!" So ......"

Zhang Chi spread his hands.

"I understand that!" "I'm sure they're going to do this to us, and the French have done it before," Kukyi said. What I don't understand is...... Why are you here when you know they're going to bomb the beach indiscriminately? ”

"It's easy!" Zhang Chi replied: "We will not give up any allies, and you are our real allies, aren't you?" ”

Cook nodded with tears in his eyes: "I know, I know...... You are not the same as them! ”

If before this, the Zoaf Corps still had any scruples about the Chinese army, then after this battle, the Zoaf Corps completely regarded the Chinese troops as its own.

Sometimes Zhang Chi feels a little shameless, and he seems to be taking advantage of the feelings of Kukyi and even the Zoaf Corps, that is, playing the emotional card.

But when I think about it, I feel that this is understandable, because the Chinese army is indeed helping the Zoaf Corps to do things that are beneficial to Algeria, so this feeling cannot be said to be fake, but it should be said...... It is a win-win cooperation.

Immediately after the Allied landing, they began to build defensive lines and unload supplies.

This is the most important task of the Allied forces at present, and as I said before, the two most important points of the landing operation: one is to be able to land successfully, and the other is to be able to stand on the ground after the landing.

The latter was even more important than the former, and to stand on its ground, it was necessary to build a defensive line and store enough supplies, especially since the Allies knew they only had two days...... Two days later, the storm would come again, cutting off the British supply line to Normandy.

Zhang Chi's eyes turned to Saint-Sauveur TV.

"Take this TV station!" Zhang Chi pointed to the map and ordered his fellow villagers: "And protect the staff and equipment of the TV station as much as possible!" ”

"Yes!"

Saint-Sauvo TV was only three miles from Normandy, and the Germans built it for battlefield propaganda...... This was a psychological offensive of the Germans, such as the use of the Allied bombing of French transport facilities, and the Allies inevitably killed many French civilians in the bombing...... In fact, the Allied bombings killed even more French civilians than the Allied forces killed in the liberation of France.

This was mainly due to the fact that there were too many American GIs who had never participated in a war, and on one occasion, the French underground organization provided extremely detailed information to the American artillery because they were worried that the American artillery would accidentally injure civilians.

However, as a result, American artillery still hit a large area of shells into a residential area four kilometers away.
