Chapter 1058: Can't Catch Up

Lei Daxiang led the "No. 18 Special Commando" beside him, dressed in deciduous forest camouflage and auspicious clothes, and slowly walked forward in the bushes. Beside them was a group of American soldiers who looked at them in awe.

These U.S. soldiers were dressed in the same way as them, and the deciduous camouflage on these U.S. soldiers was selected from the spare clothing of these Special Commando A18 members.

"Giles, are your people resting?!" Lei Daxiang looked at the American lieutenant colonel beside him and asked. Lieutenant Colonel Giles was now eager to crack a crack in the ground so that he could get in.

They were originally picked out by Barton, and they also swore that they would definitely be on the team. Even a few of the racist soldiers laughed and told Barton that they could stop and wait for the yellowskins who were not physically fit if they needed to.

But the ideal is plump, but the reality is skinny. Less than 20 kilometers after driving, these American soldiers realized that they were wrong.

The speed of the Wehrmacht, which did not indicate the number of their unit, could not keep up with it at all. It's just a rapid march of more than ten kilometers, and these American soldiers are almost unable to hold on.

Under these circumstances, Giles could only ask Lei Daxiang, the combat staff officer commanding the Wehrmacht's No. 18 Special Commando Team, to make temporary repairs.

To be honest, Lei Daxiang didn't want to stop like that. How old is that?! These U.S. troops can't hold on?! That's a fart fight.

In the Wehrmacht, even ordinary troops are definitely stronger than these American troops in front of them in terms of marching. Not to mention the Eighteenth of Armor as a commando.

"We must get to the designated area as soon as possible, and according to our reconnaissance, the Germans will change their guard in half an hour. That was the only chance we had to get through this position, and if we missed it, we'd have to wait here another day......"

Lei Daxiang frowned, raised his wrist and looked at the time and said, "It's really not good, the people who have fallen behind will retreat after repairing." Those who are capable of continuing the march can move with us. ”

In fact. Thunder loud sound, this is also a bit of a deliberate revenge. He is an overseas Chinese who returned from the United States, and he is naturally familiar with English anymore. He knew the virtues of those American soldiers.

He knew that there were quite a few racists in these U.S. military troops. This kind of racism is very marketable in the current US military, and even the US military once used this way of thinking to judge the combat capability of soldiers.

Obviously, Lei Daxiang has taught them a good lesson.

"Who can't support it?! Now exit immediately, and return the same way after trimming. Giles knew that Lei Daxiang was telling the truth, and they had already done tactical analysis long before they came out.

Before the assault team arrived, Soviet and American scouts were constantly shuttling through the German positions, looking for a breakthrough point to infiltrate. After the Soviet and American armies paid a certain number of casualties. They finally touched a few interface breakpoints for changing guards.

Although this break point is not long, it is not enough for the large army to break through from here. However, the infiltration of small forces is the best in the time of changing guards.

The Germans were very rigid in this regard, and they would strictly and meticulously implement the battle plan and the change of defense plan after they had drawn it up. This gave Commando 18 a lot of room to maneuver.

"Lieutenant Colonel! I can hold on......" A pale American soldier staggered to his feet, but his trembling legs were already telling him of his current state.

"That's it! Now is not the time to hold on. We need to make sure that the task can be done! Giles looked at these ugly American soldiers and sighed: "Although I don't want to admit it, we have indeed become a drag on these Wehrmacht soldiers." ”

"If it weren't for General Patton's order, we would have to follow them to test the effectiveness of these weapons. I want to order everyone to withdraw now......"

These American soldiers sat on the ground silently, and their faces were embarrassed this time, which everyone knew in their hearts. Now, they have some idea of why these Wehrmacht forces were able to strike fear into the Soviets and defeat the Japanese.

"I have to admit bitterly, at least in terms of marching, that we are not at all inferior to these Wehrmacht ......soldiers," Giles smiled wryly. "You know, their carry-on backpacks are heavier than ours. ”

"Those weapons and ammunition are all carried by them. In addition, they have to carry weapons, ammunition, first aid supplies, and field equipment that they use...... Wait a minute. I had a rough estimate. Each of them carried at least twenty kilograms! And now, we have been marching for about forty minutes. But I don't see any signs of them needing a break......"

I couldn't help but smile bitterly, if I hadn't seen him with my own eyes, I would never have believed that anyone could do this. Those rucksacks he had tentatively asked to be mentioned.

This thunderous noise did not embarrass him, and simply made Giles feel it. After feeling it. Giles knew how ridiculous his suspicions were.

"It can't be! Lieutenant Colonel! Unless they're all Frankenstein!! An American soldier said in disbelief: "Twenty kilograms, we have already marched more than 15 kilometers......

Giles didn't speak. Instead, he pointed to a soldier who had been ordered by Lei Dabang to unload his backpack and start preparing. But I saw that the items in the warrior's backpack were taken out one by one.

It was only at this point that the American soldier completely believed Giles's words.

Field rations, personal front transport bags, field operation boxes, gas masks, ...... Wait, it's pretty much a treasure bag. The American soldier who once held the tiger roaring rocket in his own hand even counted the rocket that the soldier was carrying.

One such rocket is close to ten kilograms. After reading it, this American soldier was completely convinced that the weight on the shoulders of these Wehrmacht soldiers was definitely more than 20 kilograms!

"I thought I was a very good soldier, but I found out after meeting these Wehrmacht soldiers. The better fighters should be their ......"

Giles didn't say anything more, and he quietly watched with the American soldiers around him as the Wehrmacht soldiers quietly disappeared into the grass to explore their way. And the thunder is constantly giving combat orders.

"This position, this position, you have to keep your eyes down. This is the key point for the Germans to change their defence, and I have to know the path and the speed of their movements. Here, is our breakthrough point. There was very little space for the crossover, and we had to grasp the ......"

Lei Daxiang had long been aware of Giles's coming, but he didn't care much about Giles's behavior. The methodical issuance of combat orders continued.

Until all the orders have been given. He turned to Giles and said, "Have you discussed?!" ”

"Most of my people will go back, except for me and Dale." Giles nodded helplessly, this was the result of his discussion with those American soldiers.

Even if these U.S. troops are unwilling to admit it, the facts are in front of them. Their march was completely incomparable to that of the Wehrmacht soldiers, and it was better to withdraw now than to drag on so undead that the operation might fail.

"Are you sure you can keep up with us?!" Lei Daxiang frowned and said, "Next, we will enter the most difficult period, and the speed of the march will be accelerated......"

"We'll follow!" Giles gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "Even if we run to death, we will keep up with the team." ”

Hearing this, Lei Daxiang glanced at Giles deeply. As an old special operator, he knows better than anyone what to expect with such a rookie by his side.

They can't keep up with the speed of the march, and even if they barely catch up, they can barely help when they are fighting. To put it bluntly, these people are a burden. According to the rules of special warfare, these people are not allowed to take them.

But Lei Daxiang also knew that there was no way for him not to bring these people. They need to test the damage of the Tiger Roar with the Wehrmacht soldiers. This was the task given to them by Barton.

They have no right not to enforce it, and Lei Daxiang himself has no right not to do it.

"Well, I hope you can speed things up!" After Lei Daxiang finished speaking, he waved his hand to let the troops continue to advance: "Next, we will enter the area of frequent activity of the German army, and everyone will enter a state of silence." Don't speak, you know?! ”

"Understood!" Giles nodded in response, and then disappeared into the bushes with the soldier named Dalle with the assault team.

The American soldiers resting. With complicated eyes, he watched the commando disappear. They can't tell what they're feeling right now......

The location of the German train guns was on a newly built railway line fifty kilometers from the battlefield. Garrisoned here was a regiment of German troops.

In order to prevent harassment by small Allied forces, the regiment not only built a large number of fortifications around the train guns, but also set up observation and fire points on the high ground where the attack might be launched.

Andreas. William. Colonel Erhard was the commander of this train artillery garrison. Being able to be selected from the entire Wehrmacht as the commander of the train artillery garrison, Andreas naturally has his own merits.

"Is there anything unusual coming from our observation point and fire point?!" Every day, Andreas routinely personally inspects every observation point and firing point.

He had to make sure that there were no problems in these places, and that there had been small groups of Soviet partisans roaming around the area. But soon this partisan force of less than a hundred men was annihilated by Andreas.

"Colonel. We don't have any problems here. Lieutenant Rolf stood up and said loudly to the colonel, who had an Iron Cross on his uniform: "I guarantee with my life that there will be absolutely no problems here for us!" Captain! ”

Andreas smiled and nodded. Patting Rolf on the shoulder, he said, "Keep watching, Lieutenant." We want to make sure that the train guns are safe. Those Soviets and Americans were afraid of it, and what they feared was what we needed to keep doing! ”

"Yes! Captain! Rolf straightened up and replied loudly.

Andreas nodded, and stepped out of the observation post. On the heights of the observation post, motorized infantry could be seen patrolling the vicinity.

They need to make sure that each node is safe from anyone else. Such a defense can be described as impregnable, and if you want to break such a defensive circle, you need the strength of one division to complete it.

And if a division can sneak in front of Andreas, then the German troops in the frontline positions can commit suicide and apologize.

At this time, Giles and Dale, who were marching with thunder, felt that they were about to die. Dahler kept complaining in his heart that these damn Wehrmacht soldiers were like ghosts.

They can easily snake through the bushes and jump down like elk. Are they still human?! Could it be a Frankenstein variant developed by the Chinese?!

Complaining is complaining, Dale still has to follow Lei Daxiang and the others to move forward. At the same time as the march. He also needs to watch his feet.

If there is a noise that should not be heard, it will be greeted by the vicious gaze of those Wehrmacht soldiers. Daller himself knew that in this and that battle situation deep behind enemy lines, any slight noise was likely to bring about an enemy attack.

This squad is only more than 30 people, and if it is discovered by the Germans, the consequences will be self-evident. No matter how elite they are, they can only be slaughtered when facing hundreds of thousands of German troops.

The Germans could even have to surround the area and conduct a carpet search to drive them to death.

"Stop! Alert, ten minutes of temporary repair! Lei Da Xiang did not issue any orders with his voice, everything was directed with gestures.

Simple tactical gestures, Thunder Loud has been taught to Giles. So now the pale-faced lieutenant colonel of the US Army can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

After receiving the order, some of the Wehrmacht soldiers quickly dispersed to guard the surroundings. Some sat down quietly and took food out of their marching backpacks and ate them bit by bit.

These are compressed dry foods that don't taste good. But it's the best food you can replenish in the wild. Thunder quietly walked over to Giles and Dale, and handed each of them a compressed biscuit.

Ate some cookies. Drank some water. Ten minutes later, Giles and Dale, who had recovered their strength, continued to grit their teeth and follow the group.

When they arrived at the point where the Germans changed their defenses, it was exactly the time for the Germans to change their defenses. Groups of German troops began to change shifts and withdrew to the rear.

With the cover of gilly suits and camouflage, Commando A18 and Giles and others were able to take advantage of this opportunity to quietly cross the road through the bushes and quickly avoid the defensive line.

At this time, Giles also had to admire Lei Daxiang's tactical planning ability, and the gap of about a minute in the German army's change of defense time was the handover of the receiving force and the change of defense force.

The troops on both sides were withdrawn, and although the Germans were careful, such a change of guard would still result in a gap in the road for a minute or so.

In a minute, a large force could have passed through here without a word. But a commando team of just over thirty people can. They easily lurked on the side of the road under the cover of gilly suits and camouflage.

When it came time to change the guard. Swiftly passed through the line and continued to lurk. It was not until the gap between the patrols that the Germans changed their guards that they would get up and move on.

Giles felt that the scene just now was too exciting, and the German soldiers were dangling less than three meters in front of him. Even the expressions on the faces of these German soldiers, the color of their pupils, Giles could see clearly.

At that moment, Giles's heart almost jumped from his chest to his throat. But the German soldiers seemed unaware. They hurried across the highway and began to change guards.

Without alarming anyone, Lei Daxiang and his comrades-in-arms took Giles to sneak through the German defense line and approach the position of the train gun step by step......

"What?! You can't keep up with their march?! Is the training you usually given to you in vain?! Barton roared angrily in his headquarters.

The stragglers had returned to the headquarters in despair, and what awaited them was Patton's stormy rage.

"What the hell are you eating?! Girls are better than you! How long has it been on the march?! was left behind and had to withdraw?! You have lost all the dignity of the American soldiers......"

Barton began to scold more elegantly. But as his anger increased, he began to curse more and more. Son of a bitch, bastard son of a bitch, stupid donkey-like waste...... and so on began to alternate words.

Eisenhower rushed to hear the news, smiled wryly and told the soldiers to disband, and then began to comfort Patton.

"We've all been in the Wehrmacht. So we know the intensity of training of these Wehrmacht. Our soldiers still need to be trained, and it's normal for them to be outmatched in terms of marching for the time being......"

"Ike, I know. I know all of this, but I just can't accept it......" Barton said hatefully: "I've always wanted to increase the intensity of training, but those damn War Department old men just don't agree!" Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to keep up with others now. ”

Eisenhower could only smile wryly when he heard this, he knew that Patton was telling the truth. Although Marshall supported them, Marshall was not omnipotent. For example, in the matter of increasing the intensity of training, Marshall can only say that he is unable to do anything because of too much opposition.

"Ike, I personally sent a telegram to General Marshall. It's time for our training to step up! Patton took a deep breath and said, "The next war will only get more and more brutal, if our soldiers can't keep up in training." Then going to the battlefield can only be sent to death. ”

"I support your approach, and we will sign and send it together when the telegram is ready." Eisenhower nodded and said meaningfully, "Otherwise...... We can't catch up with ......."
