Chapter 321: Airborne Assault (II)
Countless parachutes bloomed in the air, fluttering in the air one after another, the ground was still relatively flat, Milu landed safely after a few minutes, and there were no bullets on the ground to shoot in the air, it seems that there is indeed no ambush of the British ** team here, Milu needs about fifteen minutes, you can gather at least fifty fully equipped No. 3 tanks, just these fifty tanks, can provide enough protection for the subsequent parachute, even if there is a large British army to encircle and suppress Milu, Namilu also had the confidence to defeat them.
"Puff ......"
Milu's feet touched the ground, inertia made Milu run forward a few steps before stabilizing his body, at this time there was no time to pack up the parachute, Milu hurriedly unbuttoned the parachute iron button on his body, and then quickly ran towards his S007 No. 3 tank, the number of this 15th Panzer Army paratrooper tank is different from the number of other armored divisions of the 15th Panzer Army, the paratrooper tank has an S in front of it, and it is a three-digit number, while the tank number of other armored divisions of the 15th Panzer Army is four numbers, There are no letters.
The No. 3 tank is a very mature German tank, and now after Li Mo's strong request, all the No. 3 tanks have been replaced with long 50 mm tank guns, after many experiments, the No. 3 tank can fully withstand the recoil of the long 50 guns, such as a truck with a load of 12 tons, after being fully loaded, the recoil of a 50 gun is impossible to displace the truck, as for the space in the No. 3 tank, don't worry, Tank No. 3 is 5.56 meters long, 2.95 meters wide and 2.5 meters high, and has no problem carrying 60 shells and several thousand rounds.
Milu quickly ran to the side of the tank, and then with a vertical step, he stepped on the tank, and then skillfully got into the tank, put his hand on the handle of the machine gun, this machine gun bullet was not airdropped separately from the tank, but airdropped with the tank, and soon the other soldiers carried, or ran to the side of the No. 3 tank with various supplies, several tank crews also climbed into the tank in turn, and the paratroopers of the 15th Panzer Army of the squad who parachuted with Milu and them quickly handed shells to the tank outside the tank, There are also tanks to refuel, and everything is being prepared at a rapid pace.
In fact, as long as Li Mo did not parachute his paratrooper armored division into Freiberg's trap, Freiberg had already failed the first step, at least Freiberg lost the strategic initiative, you must know that the British army on Malta Island will not have more than one battalion of tanks, about forty. The model Li Mo did not figure it out for the time being, but now all the tanks in Britain can't carry the long 50 mm tank gun, the long 50 mm gun can penetrate 115 mm of vertical armor, and now Britain has absolutely no tanks with front armor of 95 mm, and the British did not make any good heavy tanks during World War II.
"Quick, hand me the shell, be careful not to touch it, okay, that's all."
"Come on, hurry up."
About thirteen minutes later, Milou's S007 tank was refilled, at which point Milou began to call over the radio:
"I am Colonel Milu, commander of the 1st Armored Parachute Division of the 15th Panzer Army, and I order all the tanks that have been replenished to go five kilometers to the west, repeating ......"
After Milu gave the order, he asked his driver to start driving the tank to the west, and after Milu gave the order, more than a dozen tanks started and followed the rear of S007 to assemble five kilometers to the west.
"Boom...... Boom ......"
Milou stopped five kilometers to the west, and the dozen or so tanks that followed him stopped around Milou very consciously without Milou's orders, forming a straight line, and the muzzles of the guns were all pointing to the west, which happened to be in the direction of the airport on the island of Malta and Valletta.
"S058, report for duty."
"S079, report in."
……
Soon more than one hundred and twenty No. 3 tanks gathered around Milu, and there were about five hundred infantry, and about twenty minutes had passed, and he could not wait, so Milu hurriedly got out of the tank and shouted loudly to the paratroopers outside:
"All paratroopers were carried outside the tank, immediately attacked, and the command was passed back ......"
"All paratroopers were carried outside the tank, immediately attacked, and the command was passed back ......"
"Knock knock...... "Knock knock...... "It's all the sound of those paratroopers pedaling."
After giving the order, Milu immediately ordered his tank driver to drive, and in an instant Milu's mount roared out, and hundreds of tanks behind Milu also roared to follow, and there were always three or five paratroopers sitting on the tank, and their responsibility was to protect the tank from the enemy's infantry.
"The soldiers and tanks that have not yet been assembled are defending at the airborne landing point, waiting for the arrival of the follow-up troops, and then coming to support the attacking tank assault group."
After Milou set off with his tank assault group, he gave an order to the paratroopers and tanks who had not yet assembled to defend on the spot, so that they were not afraid of the British troops on the island coming to attack the parachute landing site, as long as the two subsequent paratrooper divisions arrived, the hope of victory in this battle was great.
"Boom...... Boom ......"
"Report to the regimental commander, a large number of British convoys have been found ahead, and they are coming towards us."
"All the paratroopers got out of the car, and all of them formed a conical shock formation, with me as the cone...... Offensive. ”
Freiberg saw that the German paratroopers did not choose their own trap airborne, and hurriedly sent their own ambushes outside the airport to encircle and suppress those German paratroopers who had not gained a firm foothold, and the ambushes outside Valletta immediately withdrew to Valletta City for defense, it seems that Freiberg planned to fight street battles with the Germans, and thought of defeat before fighting, and it cannot be said that Freiberg's tactics were wrong, but it can only be said that Freiberg's tactical thinking was conservative and he was cautious in his use of troops.
Now there are not a few people in the world who dare to gamble on all the belongings like Li Mo's life, even this airborne landing on Malta Island, Li Mo only has three paratrooper divisions, which is a full pressure, winning is the strategic point of occupying Malta Island, and losing is the annihilation of the paratrooper division, because Li Mo does not have any fleet to retreat these paratroopers, so Li Mo didn't even think about the retreating Valletta, whether he died or lived, he would win or lose, there was no three-to-two war at all, only the champion could survive in the war, and the runner-up could only be buried.
"Woooooooooo......oo Woowoo woo ......"
Milou's driver put the tank in third gear and increased the throttle, so that the tank has much more power, but the speed is not very fast, which is conducive to maintaining the attack formation, even if the third tank hits those trucks, it can also knock those trucks apart.
"All but aiming...... Get ready...... Put...... Boom ......"
