"Major General!" That's when Eisenhower called: "How's it going?" ”

"All the best!" Zhang Chi replied: "The remaining 'Omaha' beachhead has not been taken down yet!" ”

"Are you having trouble?" Eisenhower asked. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"No, there is no difficulty!"

"That's good!" Eisenhower said, "I must warn you that if the time does not come to me that you have taken the beachhead in Omaha, I will have to order a fire covering." We can't wait any longer, it will soon be dark and it will mean that we have lost our best chance to attack! ”

"Understood!" Zhang Chi replied: "I can't say anything more, wait for my news!" ”

After speaking, Zhang Chi hung up the phone.

Although Zhang Chi said confidently on the phone, he actually had no idea at all.

At this time, he wished that he was still in the sky, and then led the soldiers to parachute directly to the heads of the two "tigers" and blow them up.

"What's going on over there with Xu Yun?" Zhang Chi asked.

He hoped that the 1st Division of the Zoaf Corps would put more pressure on the Germans on the front.

"They suffered heavy casualties!" The countryman replied: "Although an attack was organized to cooperate with us, it was still impossible to break through the second line of defense of the Germans!" ”

Although this answer had been expected by Zhang Chi, Zhang Chi still inevitably felt a burst of disappointment.

Standing in front of us is the Tiger Style, which can almost be said to be invincible in this era...... How can we get rid of this obstacle?!

At this time, a cannonball hit the "floodplain" and set off a huge wave, and the sea water even splashed on Zhang Chi's body.

Looking at the bursts of water vapor rising from the bombardment of artillery shells in the "floodplain", Zhang Chi couldn't help but have an idea, and hurriedly summoned his fellow villagers and picked up a branch on the ground while drawing and saying: "This is the enemy's 'tiger style', they must be facing us!" ”

"Hmm!" The fellow townsman nodded.

This is common sense, the frontal armor is the thickest, of course, in the direction of the strongest attack.

"Our bazooka can't penetrate its front, but it can penetrate its side!" Zhang Chi said.

THIS IS ALSO NO PROBLEM, THE TIGER SIDE ARMOR IS 82MM IN THE UPPER PART, 63MM IN THE LOWER PART, AND THE PENETRATION DEPTH OF THE BAZOOKA 100MM IS MORE THAN ENOUGH TO PENETRATE IT.

"The problem is that we can't get close to its side!" The fellow townsman said, "That guy guards a narrow passage with an unclimbable cliff on one side and a 'floodplain' on the other!" ”

Zhang Chi raised his head and looked at his fellow villagers.

The townsfolk soon came to their senses: "'Floodplain'! ”

"Yes!" Zhang Chi said: "The sky is not yet fully bright, the visibility is very low, and there is still light rain in the sky...... In addition, organize mortars to bombard the area where the 'tiger' is located, and fire a few more shells into the 'floodplain', and the water vapor evaporated by it will provide us with the effect of smoke grenades......"

"Got it!" "Then we attracted the attention of the enemy head-on, sending a commando from the 'floodplain' to its flank......"

Speaking of which, the townsfolk clenched their fists at the location of the "Tiger" on the map.

Zhang Chi nodded, then looked at his watch, and said, "Let's do it, you still have fifteen minutes!" ”

"Yes!" The townsfolk answered, and immediately issued a series of orders into the walkie-talkie.

The reaction of the soldiers of the expeditionary force can be described as rapid, and in less than a minute, artillery fire rang out...... These artillery fires are mortars, and the airborne troops at this time have not yet been able to airdrop large equipment, and mortars can already be regarded as heavy equipment.

But the mortars were also completely sufficient.

This is not to say that mortars can destroy the "Tiger", in fact...... Mortar shells hit the Tiger like tickling it.

The purpose of the artillery was to provide cover for the assault team, just like Zhang Chi saw in the telescope, a few shells exploded in the "floodplain" one after another, and then a cloud of fog and vapor was released nearby, blurring the already hazy opposite side even more.

Then a group of fighters attacked......

This looks a lot like a normal charge: fire cover before a charge.

Therefore, the Germans did not take this attack to heart at all, and they took it for granted that they could still easily defeat the Chinese army...... Because the Chinese army does not have any equipment in its hands that can penetrate the armor of the "Tiger" 102MM, they can rely on the cover of tanks to easily shoot bullets and shells at the enemy.

But what the Germans didn't know was that this time was no longer the same as before.

The sound of guns and cannons soon rang out, and the German bullets and shells rained down on the passage, which was only more than 100 meters wide, only to explode the passage with smoke and dust.

In the aperture of the telescope, several charging warriors were instantly beaten to a blur of flesh and blood by the dense rain of bullets...... Zhang Chi couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, perhaps because the Chinese army had not participated in the war for a while and had no casualties, and now he was a little unaccustomed to seeing the soldiers lying in a pool of blood.

"This is the battlefield, and there will be casualties on the battlefield!" Zhang Chi convinced himself in his heart over and over again.

But it's easy to say, when you are really on the battlefield, especially when you are in a foreign country and watch your subordinates, fellow countrymen, and comrades-in-arms fall, that feeling is still indescribable.

Almost at the moment when German guns rang out, a platoon of assault teams set out......

The strength of a platoon seems to be a bit small, but Zhang Chi still agrees with this arrangement of his fellow villagers.

The reason is simple, the important thing about this raid is not the number of people, but the "strange" ...... There is only one "Tiger" in front of them, and as long as one bazooka can hit, it is enough to cripple or destroy it, so this does not require a large number of people, but increases the probability of being discovered by the enemy.

The assault team cautiously went into the water with the buoys, and then slowly swam towards the flank of the "Tiger" under the cover of gunfire......

A platoon, divided into anti-tank groups in squads, each carrying a Bazooka...... Two people are in charge of the bazooka, one is responsible for shooting and the other is responsible for loading, and the rest are armed with rifles and submachine guns to provide fire cover for the bazooka.

Such a battle is not easy, especially the bazooka, if it is damp in the sea, it is difficult to launch successfully, and the fighters must not do too much waterproofing measures for the bazooka, otherwise...... When the fighters went around to the side of the "Tiger" and found the target, they had to remove the waterproof first, which was very likely to miss the fighter.

Therefore, the fighters had to raise the buoys, put on the bazookas or ammunition, cover them with a tarp, and then push the buoys to swim slowly.
