Vikinko hid behind the big tree behind him, not daring to move. He clutched his rifle tightly in his hand, and Jerry Vickers lay at his feet, his eyes gray and white as if staring at him, as if staring ahead. Vikinko slowly stretched out his hand and gently covered his eyes, before this, this man had shown a look of disdain at him, but now he was lying quietly on the snow, just a corpse, and before that, everything this man said and did seemed very ridiculous and meaningless.

He squatted in the tree, quietly like a rabbit with nowhere to escape, and his spirit was highly nervous. The Germans were constantly passing by around him, but now they were not attacking, but retreating, and people were constantly falling to his side, and from his point of view, the fallen Germans were like reeds that had been blown by the wind.

"Hurry up, hurry up, we're backing off!" A sergeant shouted at Vikinko, and as he stepped back, he turned around from time to time and shot a shuttle in the direction of the American troops behind him. But God knows what he can hit? When the sergeant saw that Vikingko was still not moving and his body was shaking, he knew that he was frightened and wanted to rush over and pull him, but before he could run a few steps, he was hit by a shot. The sergeant staggered for a moment, but before he could fall down, it was this buffer, and a few more bullets hit him, knocking him backwards and "kicking" a few steps back, and then he sat down on the ground, and his upper body leaned back, and the whole person fell on the snow.

"I said, this is just the beginning!" Vikingko muttered, watching the sergeant fall to the ground and trying to pull him, but his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and he couldn't move the cloth. The death of the sergeant made him completely lose confidence in the whole battle, and despair rose from his heart, "They are all killing machines, we can't beat them." He muttered again. The snowflakes on the top of the tree, because of the vibration of the explosion, fell from time to time, covering his head and body, quietly, he was like a snow sculpture.

"The Germans retreated!" In the Welsh telescope, I watched the Germans retreat in a hurry, they came quickly, but they also fled quickly, but they still maintained their proper formation, and did not flee in a hurry, "Parkes, we defeated them!" The Welsh voice was excited, and he gripped his rifle tightly in his hand.

Parks shook his head and said, "The Germans are retreating, but we haven't defeated them yet!" With that, Parks crawled out of his bunker and shouted "Lutz, tell the mortar crews to use all the shells in their hands." Harry, let's go out and have a good fight with the Germans, and immediately inform the platoons to pursue the Germans, this is our chance! ”

This is indeed an opportunity. If the Germans retreat to their own positions in defeat, then they will definitely bomb the positions again, and when retreating, E Company can seize this opportunity to annihilate the German army, completely disrupt the intentions of the German army, and annihilate a large number of German living forces, so that the German army can be afraid and dare not attack again easily. And the brothers of Company E also need time to rest and recuperate in the scattered positions and bunkers that have been bombed.

"It's our turn!" Grnelly grabbed his rifle, he crawled out of cover and yelled, "Brothers, go on, the Germans are fleeing, let's go kill them, bunnies!" At this time, Landowman's voice was also pierced not far away, and his loud voice was urging the brothers in his class to keep attacking forward.

"To hell with the Germans!" Landowan yelled, "Pick up your rifle and shoot, now the Germans are the target, all we have to do is shoot the target, hurry up, don't be like a mother-in-law!" ”

The brothers of Company E were constantly crawling out of the bunkers, and they were in squads, machine gunners and mortars constantly fighting the German troops. The Germans, who could have retreated calmly, were hit by the sudden mortars, machine guns, and rifles that kept chasing them, and the formation began to disperse, and one after another the Germans fell. And there was a part of the German army that chose a more direct way, kneeling on the ground and raising their hands high.

Parks caught up from behind, and he kept outpacing his running brothers along the way, running, shooting, and running, as if they were in the obstacle course of training, and everything was in order. All the brothers watched as Company Commander Parks kept running, his speed was fast, he kept overtaking himself, and from time to time he shouted: "Hurry up, don't let the Germans go!" Here's our chance! ”

Parks' words encouraged those on the left and right to charge on the battlefield, and Parks seemed to always be at the front. Agile and commanding, his charge in front of him is always the pillar that unites his brothers and follows him forward.

"Boom!" There was an explosion, and a German soldier threw a grenade, but the explosion only caused Parks to pause slightly, he took a few steps back, slowed down, and when he raised his hand, the rifle made a crisp sound, and the bullet passed through the German who threw the bomb, and the red blood scattered in the air. Parks didn't stop at all, he thought about the teams on both sides gesturing, signaling for an all-out attack.

At the same time, another figure was also running on the snow, he was as agile and fast, although not as good as Parks, but he was also a good hand, he held a submachine gun, constantly strafing and shooting. The brim of his hat was low, but it didn't hinder the speed of his charge and the accuracy of his shots.

Parks was in the middle behind, he glanced at the figure that was rushing ahead, as brave as a tiger, and suddenly raised his rifle, and with a "bang", a German soldier behind the figure fell headlong. The figure stopped, smiled at Parks, and gave a thumbs up. Parks smiled and gave him a thumbs up.

Lieutenant Spierre was bent on showing something in battle, he wanted to prove that he was a brave fighter, or he wanted to prove that he was a reliable officer. The moment the Germans retreated, he knew that this was a good opportunity for him to pursue. He waited for Parks' order to attack, and then began a counterattack with the first of the third platoon.

He charged very fast, the Germans retreated, they didn't have a lot of people turning around and shooting, most of the Germans just wanted to quickly retreat to the line of defense and let the artillery deal with those Americans. Therefore, Spiel was like no one along the way, even if he encountered one or two German troops who turned around to resist, he was either kicked by Spiel, and with a shuttle, he was knocked down by him from afar.

"Oh my God, is this guy crazy?" Mook, who was running behind him, couldn't help but complain, but he was soon ridiculed by Hubler, who was catching up behind him.

"Hey, be careful, he's Lieutenant Spierre, don't you know his story?" Hubler winked at him, and then rushed forward with Lieutenant Spierre, to be honest, Hubler still admired Lieutenant Spierre.

"Hey, Hubler, wait for me!" Mook yelled from behind, and then rushed forward as well.

Spiel knew that Captain Parks was next to him, and he wanted to compete with Captain Parks, and both of them rushed fast. It's just that I didn't expect that in the end, it was Parks who saved Lieutenant Spiel once. Spiel was not unconvinced, but admired that Parks' reaction and speed were still a little stronger than his own after all. And this battle is precisely the result of Parks' arrangement.

Along the way, there were German soldiers kneeling on the ground, hands raised in surrender, some wounded soldiers lying on the ground groaning, and more corpses lying on the ground, they lay there permanently, no longer caring who won and who lost.

"I almost can't keep up with you!" At this time, there was a panting voice behind him, and Wales hurried over, he propped himself on the trunk of the tree with one hand, and gasped for breath, "Are we going to continue the attack?" Now that we are on the edge of the woods, we are in pursuit, and the Germans are likely to use the open space to kill us! ”

Parks nodded, then said to Spiel: "Let's retreat, let the brothers retreat, Harry, inform the factions, retreat immediately, and then stay in the bunker, we have to prevent the Germans from shelling, once they withdraw to the defensive line, it is possible to shell us again." ”

"Okay!" Wales nodded, and after talking, he began to exclude the soldiers and convey orders, and at this time Lieutenant Halig also ran over, and when he saw Parks who had stopped, he couldn't help asking, "Shall we withdraw?" Captain! ”

"Haliger, escort the prisoners back to the battalion headquarters, and report our situation to the battalion headquarters, and we will withdraw to prevent the second round of German attacks!" Parks methodically issued the order, then gestured to Spiel, and the two nodded, and began to beckon the brothers to retreat back to the line.

When the brothers returned to their bunkers, the German shells arrived as promised. They were hit hard, so the shelling became more ferocious and intensive, and the sound of 88mm guns, 105mm guns, and MG42 heavy machine guns, rained down on the positions of E Company, making a loud noise from the bunkers, and from time to time sawdust and large chunks of snow shook and fell, falling on the necks of the brothers, and the earth was so uplifted that it was almost impossible to open people's eyes.

"Lacey, have they already returned to bunker? Buck! Winters held up his binoculars in the bunker in the back, and he asked Lieutenant Compton beside him.

"Yes, Dick!" Lieutenant Compton nodded, "This is what I personally observed. Don't worry, Dick, Parks will handle it well, he's a good commander. ”

"This is the second time you've asked this question!" Nickerson looked at Winters and shook his head and smiled, the sound of the explosion made it very difficult for them to talk to each other, although only the occasional shell could land on their position, but the dense explosion and the machine gun sound of MG42 made Winters unstoppable.

"I know, I know!" Winters put down his binoculars, looked at Nexon and said, "You're always right, Parks will take care of E-Company, he will even take care of E-Company's brothers more than I do." Winters took two steps and sat down on a wooden box. He's a clean-loving guy who always doesn't bother to sit on dirt.

"After such a strong shelling, will the Germans continue to attack?" Winters muttered to himself, then pulled a map from his bosom and threw it on another wooden chest in the bunker, frowning.

"Maybe!" Nickerson didn't look at the map, he just looked at Winters and said, "If the Germans find a way to break the Parks bunker, they will attack again, and it will be more violent." But before that, I think they'll think about it carefully. Do you know how many of them we repulsed? The strength of a regiment. Counting the strength of their other companies holding us back, that's better than a regiment, think about it, what did Parks do? ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Winters' lips and he nodded, "Very good, Parks Bunker, I like it!" ”
