This military camp built under the Tobruk Fortress is only a mountain road about 1,500 meters long from the fortress, and if you run quickly, you can enter the fortress in seven or eight minutes at most

Thousands of British troops poured out of the barracks and ran in a mess towards the fortress on the hill, which was also so obvious that the pilots of three helicopters who had not landed in the air noticed the situation.

The pilots of these three helicopters saw that the situation was not right, and if the British troops were really allowed to retreat into the fortified fortress, the fortress of Tobruk would not be so easy to take.

The pilot of one of the helicopters hurriedly contacted the pilots of the other two helicopters, and everyone agreed to land the personnel on the mountain road.

Halfway up the mountain, there is a 20-meter-long observation deck, which is just enough for an FA223 helicopter to land.

The first helicopter quickly lowered its altitude, then dropped the twenty heavily armed soldiers on board, followed by the second, then the third.

In just a few minutes, sixty elite paratroopers set up a defensive line near the observation deck halfway up the mountain.

These sixty paratroopers are six squads, each with an MG34 general-purpose machine gun with 1,500 rounds of ammunition, and two 50-mm squad mortars.

When the Germans landed, Boulder discovered the actions of the German paratroopers, if the German paratroopers had more than one company, Boulder would probably be desperate, but the Germans put sixty people halfway up the mountain, which undoubtedly gave Boulder a glimmer of life and a hint of luck.

Boulder lay on his stomach in the grass on the side of the mountain road, and hissed and shouted:

"There are no weapons, go back and get weapons,...... Quickly get our mortars out as well. Kill the Nazis. Just go. Otherwise, we'll all die. ”

The British were panicked before, but now that their escape route was blocked, the British soldiers stopped panicking, and the unarmed British immediately ran to the barracks.

"Attack immediately if you have weapons, ...... Fast. ”

Boulder commanded about 300 armed British troops to attack the German paratroopers at the observation deck.

"Rush, ......"

The answer to these British troops was the sound of machine guns with "fluttering ......" and the sound of submachine guns with "fluttering".

The bullets were slanted at the charging British soldiers, and the screams of "ahh

Those who did not die quickly lay down on the mountain road. The MG34 machine gun was so terrifying that it was called "Hitler's chainsaw" because of its terrifying rate of fire of 1,000 rounds per minute.

Charging in front of the MG34 can only be an act of seeking death, no matter how many people charge, as long as there are several machine guns cross-firing, which is convenient for replacing the barrel, pure infantry alone will never be able to break through the defense line built by the MG34.

Boulder looked at his men, who had suffered heavy casualties, and there was nothing they could do, those who were wounded. It could not be cured, so it had to be left to the Germans. It was said that Rommel never mistreated prisoners and would treat those who were wounded.

The screams of the wounded were the most demoralizing, but Boulder had no way to keep the wounded soldiers from screaming, so he could only order the paratroopers to help them bandage them briefly and then give them a morphine injection.

This was not possible, so we had to wait for the mortars to arrive and kill the German paratroopers with mortars.

In a few moments, hundreds of British soldiers who had returned to the barracks finally came out of the barracks, and these hundreds of British soldiers were now all armed, and they also brought six 81-millimeter mortars.

The 81-millimeter mortar can already be regarded as a heavy mortar, and the mortar fights in the middle mountains, and the advantages are quite obvious, such as easy to set up, no dead angles in the attack, fast rate of fire, and so on.

Rommel's paratroopers were elite, but with only two 50-millimeter mortars in their hands, they were no match for others at all.

The British troops who came out of the barracks were also more cunning, and they did not approach the foot of the hill, but began to set up mortar positions at the entrance of the barracks, which were already outside the range of fifty-millimeter mortars.

Soon, the mortar positions of the British army deployed at the entrance of the barracks bombarded the area around the observation deck indiscriminately, and the shells rained down on the observation deck.

Dozens of German paratroopers were completely enveloped in it, and the entire observation deck exploded one after another, filling the air with gunsmoke, and from time to time some stumps and broken arms were blown into the sky, as well as the deformed weapons.

The British set up heavy mortars at the entrance of the barracks, and it was extremely convenient to carry the shells, and if it were not for the time constraints, the British would have wanted to bombard for an hour before they charged.

Between life and death, the British army could not have so much time for shelling, ten, just ten minutes of shelling, and the entire landscape platform has become rubble everywhere.

In this round of shelling, fifty-seven German paratroopers, not one in ten, in the elite soldiers, exposed to the enemy's superior artillery fire, are all acts of seeking death.

Three more German paratroopers remained on top of the helicopters, as each FA223 helicopter had a 12.7 mm anti-aircraft machine gun on it, and these three German paratroopers were machine gunners.

In fact, the three helicopters had long wanted to participate in the war, and they had been hovering over the mountain road not far away, anyway, the British army did not have large-caliber anti-aircraft guns, and these helicopters were not dangerous.

These helicopters did not dare to go into battle before. Definitely not because they were afraid of death, but Rommel strictly ordered not to allow these FA223 helicopters to participate in the war.

Because Rommel only had a total of 24 helicopters in his hands, and two had to be used as broadcast machines, and Rommel had 22 helicopters in his hands, the important role of these helicopters was the main reason why Rommel did not let these helicopters participate in the war.

But the situation was different now, and if the three helicopters did not enter the battle, the British troops on the mountain road would soon have captured the shattered observation deck and retreated to the fortress of Tobruk.

The helicopter pilot who had just let everyone put paratroopers on the observation deck looked at the observation deck filled with gunsmoke, his eyes were already bloodshot at this time, and although his decision was extremely correct, dozens of brothers died in the blink of an eye.

The pilot's vengeful anger burned brightly, and Rommel's strict orders were forgotten by the helicopter pilot, who turned his head and yelled at the back:

"Brother, we're going down to kill those bitch Brits."

"Yes, we want to avenge our brothers."

The helicopter rushed down at the mortar position at the entrance of the British barracks, and the dozens of British soldiers who had just fired a good shot looked at the strange flying machine that fell from the sky in amazement, and they even forgot to escape.

Anti-aircraft machine gun bullets suddenly ejected from the side of the helicopter ......, and the British artillery positions were suddenly dusted by bullets.

A 12.7 mm machine gun bullet could break a person into two knots if it hit a person, and at least a few British soldiers suffered such retribution.

[6th more, brothers, send the whole set from heaven and earth, the fallen leaves are so tired that they can't straighten their waists, even if they die, they will die after a handful of coolness. 】
