1 a.m. on October 19, 1916.

Somme.

"Rambler, the plane support countdown is 10, 9, 83, 2, 1 planes will be dispatched, and they will reach the designated combat sky in 30 seconds."

As soon as Xiao Ling's voice sounded, General von Rautch's order was also issued at the same moment:

Fire!

Huge artillery fire suddenly tore through the silent night sky as the British were defenseless.

On October 19, the German counteroffensive began!

And the origin of this counteroffensive also comes from one person:

Ernst Aleksen von Brahm!

The overwhelming shells streaked through countless lines of fire in the night, and terribly landed on the opposite position, and a huge explosion exploded.

The sleeping British soldiers were suddenly awakened by the sound of artillery, and their sleepiness disappeared without a trace in an instant, and they panicked to find a place to hide, for fear that the shells would fall on their side.

Lieutenant Colonel Rosen, commander of the 43rd Battalion, soon appeared in the position, and the cannon roared and shook the earth, completely drowning out his shouts.

What do the Germans want to do? Do you want to attack at night? It's entirely possible.

However, under the sudden bombardment of the Germans, Lieutenant Colonel Rosen's orders could hardly be conveyed to the ears of his subordinates

"Rambler, the plane has reached the skies above the engagement, asking for permission to bomb!"

"Let's go!"

When Wang Weiyi's cold order was given, two planes that had been carefully disguised as "Albatross II" but were far ahead of their era began their performances!

The cannonball fell from the belly of the fuselage, and under the control of Xiao Ling, it swooped towards the set target with a terrifying death roar!

"Boom-boom-boom"

After a few huge explosions, a dozen Britons who had just run to the heavy machine guns were rushed into the air with a huge wave of air

This is the most terrible destruction!

The German artillery overshadowed the bombardment of the planes, and the nightmare of the British began. The machine-gun positions of Company A of the 42nd Machine Gun Battalion of the British Army were almost devastated.

After another round of bombardment, there was not a single intact machine gun or living person left on the position

"Detection bombing completed machine gun position destruction no survivors found again repeated, no survivors were found aircraft support completed, remaining support in return, four sorties"

When Xiao Ling's voice stopped, Wang Weiyi showed a satisfied smile on his face, and he stood up suddenly: "For Germany, attack!" ”

"For Germany, attack!"

Counteroffensive, starting with the replenishment battalion! Target - D9 position!

All the German soldiers rose from their hideouts, whistling and shouting, and rushed towards the D9 position. At a glance, in the night, in the firelight, in the bombardment of shells, everywhere are the German soldiers who bravely charged!

For the glory of Germany! For the glory of Ernst - attack!

The British lost their machine guns, of course, not thanks to the planes, but to the accurate bombing of the German artillery! At least that's what most people think.

Long live the great German artillerymen!

The unluckiest man in this battle was undoubtedly Lieutenant Colonel Rosen.

A German shell exploded near him, killing his lieutenant and seriously wounding Lieutenant Colonel Rosen.

When he woke up from his coma, he found that one of his arms was missing.

Intense pain struck Lieutenant Colonel Rosen, who forcibly endured the pain and continued to direct the battle on the battlefield with unimaginable perseverance.

On this point alone, Lieutenant Colonel Rosen is undoubtedly admirable.

However, his orders could no longer be effectively conveyed. The whole position is in chaos and collapsed!

Huge groups of Germans rushed up and began a one-sided massacre in the midst of the chaos of the British.

Lieutenant Colonel Rosen could not figure out how the German artillery was so accurate that it was able to bombard his machine-gun position and destroy it completely.

German planes have also appeared, and it is difficult to tell what kind of plane it is in the dark night, and it seems that bombs have also fallen on the planes, but they are only mental intimidation, and do not have any bombing capabilities.

Now is not the time to think about these issues, the big question is even if the position falls.

Lieutenant Colonel Rosen did everything he could to salvage the defeat, but it was clear that the situation was no longer in control. Huge numbers of British people died, and large numbers of British people became prisoners.

The German soldiers were full of energy, and when you learned of the road, Captain Ernst fought with them.

Where Captain Ernst appeared, something magical would happen, and the artillery actually destroyed the enemy's machine-gun position, making the German surprise attack one less of the biggest threat.

Medals are flashing in front of the eyes of the German soldiers, and countless meritorious glory is calling to them!

Wang Weiyi, Hitler, Guo Yunfeng, Boncree, Steck, and Guderian each rushed to the front, using their bayonets that flashed in the night to solve the enemy one by one.

The dead bodies on the ground had been piled up, the positions had been broken through, and everywhere the eye could be seen were Germans chasing the British.

It was a hearty battle, one could even say an easy one.

Wang Weiyi stopped his assassination maneuvers, he had already killed seven or eight enemies, and the battle exploits had accumulated enough, let the others continue their glory on the battlefield.

The boys were full of energy, and their mouths were roaring loudly, and the peaked hats were so proud of this.

Hitler came to him with a wheez, he received some minor wounds on his hands, but it didn't matter: "Captain, we, we're going to win"

"Yes, Adolf." Wang Weiyi smiled and said, "We are about to win, now I order you to go and bring this news to Colonel Jinklock." Tell him that the D9 position is already in our hands! ”

"Yes, Captain!" Hitler was in high spirits.

On the other side, Guderian, who had just killed an enemy, looked at Captain Ernst with almost adoring eyes, he had also experienced battles, but never experienced such quick and easy battles.

It's like lightning to solve the enemy with superior forces and weapons.

The artillery and infantry worked together to complete the attack, but Guderian always felt that something was missing in the attack.

But what exactly Guderian could not say.

Or maybe you're thinking too much about it.
