"Before we talk about how the mission went, let's at least understand the basics, right? What kind of world is this? Where are we now? And where is the British 1st Airborne Division? Tong Qi looked at Chen Li like a fool: Figure out the basic situation and then make the layout, this is the most basic logic?

"! is also directly scolded by the senior, this person is either powerful, or his personality is more dead! ”

Chen Li was not happy with Tong Qi, and said angrily: "I was about to say it!" Interrupt what? Then he said condescendingly: "'Operation Market Garden' is an operation in World War II, probably in the 190s, well, this operation finally failed, the German artillery fire was unexpectedly fierce, I am afraid that our task will be very difficult." ”

"Are you wasting your time?" Then he heard a cold voice interrupt his introduction.

But Chu said unceremoniously: "The introduction is illogical, it doesn't involve any substantive content, the protection time is almost over, don't waste our time." ”

"Damn, you have the ability to talk about it!" Chen Li went back even more unhappily: What about the beauties? Hum. With a malicious gaze, he swept over Dan Chu.

But Chu seemed to feel his dirty thoughts, and snorted coldly in disdain, and the force field opened instantly, causing everyone to look at her with a hint of awe. But Chu looked around and saw that Chen Li's face was flushed, so he withdrew the force field and said: "Operation Market Garden is the largest airborne combat operation in World War II and in the history of human warfare. But it was proposed by the stupid Montgomery. ”

The battle plan was to use a total of 35,000 men from the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions of the US Army, the 1st Airborne Division of the British Army, and the Polish Paratrooper Brigade to parachute into Eindhoven, Nijmegen, and Arnhem at a depth of 63 miles, seize the bridges, and escort the 30th Army of the ground corps like handing over the "baton" to drive straight into the Ruhr area, a major industrial area in Germany. ”

"At 13:30 on September 17, 1944, the battle began, and the Allies used more than 5,500 transport planes, 2,596 gliders, and more than 8,000 combat and bomber planes to land in three areas at the same time. But the campaign did not go well. After brutal fighting, the 101st and 82nd Divisions suffered 3,542 casualties before joining forces on the ground. ”

"The Allies had already won the Normandy landings, and the army was overwhelmed, as if it were in a no-man's land. The Allies had drawn up 18 airborne battle plans, but the ground forces advanced too fast, and all airborne areas were swept by the army, and all airborne operations had to be cancelled. Air commanders can only face the arrogance of the army and have nothing to do, so this large-scale airborne campaign is what all airborne commanders want to see. ”

The Allies were optimistic that victory was in sight, and both Patton and Montgomery wanted to be the first to storm Berlin, but in the end, Eisenhower agreed with Montgomery's proposal. However, Moder's Waffen-SS 2nd Panzer Corps had just been repaired in the Arnhem area, and although the Dutch underground had sent information and reconnaissance planes had detected it, all signs were already in place. ”

"But Montgomery didn't want to see any information about thwarting the airborne program, so he ignored it."

"Extremely stupid bureaucracy."

To add insult to injury, only two hours after the raid, Stuartden, commander of the German 1st Parachute Corps, obtained an Allied combat order from a crashed glider and handed it over to Field Marshal Moder to plan a counteroffensive.

But Chu paused, and continued mockingly: "As luck would have gotten it, the humid climate and difficult terrain of the Netherlands hastened the damage to the radio equipment, and the dense trees made the signal very poor. In addition, due to various accidents, almost all the radio equipment was damaged on the road, causing the communications of the airborne troops to be stationary, and 80 percent of the supplies fell into the hands of the German army. ”

"The heavy firepower of the airborne troops is insufficient, and they can only sigh in the face of German tanks, armored vehicles, and artillery."

"The last to hold on to the Arnhem area was the 2nd Airborne Battalion of the 1st British Airborne Division, which held out until 20 September under the leadership of its commander, Lieutenant Colonel Frost. Lieutenant Colonel Frost, in order to avoid unnecessary casualties, led most of the wounded to surrender to the Germans. However, the remainder of the 2nd Airborne Battalion, led by Major Ralph, fought on its back, and on 21 September the rest was wiped out. In the end, the 1st Airborne Division escaped with less than 2,000 men. ”

"That's amazing, you're going to go into too much detail." Wang Hao was almost impressed by Dan Chu, looking at the beauty and admiring sincerely, but Chen Li glared at him and shrunk his neck.

"So, the key point of this operation is that, first, the 2nd Airborne Battalion is poorly equipped and powerless against tank armor. Second, supplies have been cut off, and there is a shortage of food, water, medicine, and equipment. Third, the speed of the ground advance force is too slow, we not only have to rescue the 2nd Airborne Battalion, but also find a way to increase the speed of the ground force's advance! After listening to Dan Chu's introduction, Tong Qi crossed his hands, rubbed his thumbs unconsciously, and said calmly.

"Huh?" Su Yun's eyes lit up, "This person is good!" ”

But Chu was also slightly surprised, "Finally, there is a person who is not too stupid." ”

"Tong Qi, can you fix the radio with your ability? Or send a wireless message directly? ”

"Absolutely."

But Chu nodded, "Then, first, we will now go to the rescue of the 2nd Airborne Battalion and complete the main mission one, Tong Qi repairs their radio, and asks for ...... Airdrop radio troops! ”

Su Yun couldn't help but glance at Dan Chu more: looking at her confident appearance, I'm afraid she already had a plan, right?

"Second, the veteran will seize the tank and armor, and try to hand it over to the four newcomers to pilot."

"Third, Su Yun probe the information and inform him immediately if there is a situation!"

"Hmph, if you let newcomers who have no ability to protect themselves enter the tank armor, they will definitely be blown up first, do you think they don't die fast enough?" Chen Li asked.

"When you get into a tank, at least you can not be afraid of machine-gun bullets, and if you are lucky, a small number of shells can be ignored." But Chu said calmly, "If it's outside, I'm afraid a bullet can kill them." ”

"Hmph, then why should a veteran be a nanny for newcomers?" Chen Li didn't seem to have recovered his momentum, and continued to scare unhappily.

But Chu looked at him deeply and said slowly, "Because ...... When a new person dies, we will all be deducted information points. ”

"You !!" Chen Li didn't expect that this hidden rule would be easily said by this annoying woman, and said angrily: "We seniors will naturally try our best to protect the safety of newcomers. But newcomers should also take on their own obligations! Now hurry up and tell the information you know, complete the task quickly, and return! ”

But Chu shook his head and said calmly: "Chen Li is right, your 'key information' is of great help to us to advance the task smoothly, please be cautious and say your information accurately, any misunderstanding may bring very serious consequences!" ”

"Heh, do you want to change the concept?" Su Yun looked at the two of them with a slight mockery, "I'm afraid 'use the message carefully' doesn't mean 'cautious and accurate', right?" These two people, one with a black face and the other with a white face, tricked us into telling the information, I'm afraid there are ghosts. Moreover...... If a newcomer dies, will the information points of the veteran be deducted......"

Su Yun shook his head, a little more wary in his heart.

"Did you hear it?" Chen Li said viciously, and then patted Wang Hao hard: "What do you know?" Seriously! See it clearly! ”

"Me, my message is 'Twenty kilometers south of the Arnhem Bridge, several bombers are docked'." Wang Hao wanted to cry without tears, and read out word by word for the information "cautiously".

"Impossible!" But Chu frowned, "The German army's air firepower was extremely suppressed in this operation, if there is air power at such a close distance......"

"It's the space that adjusts the difficulty." Han was not easy to judge calmly.

"That's right! The message is meant to remind us...... The Germans are likely to bomb the Arnhem area! It's a side quest! But Chu said with a serious expression.

"Space, will it interfere with the mission world......" Su Yun secretly noted down, and found that Tong Qi also looked thoughtful.

"Then I think time should be of the essence." Tong Qi said: "My message is 'It's September 19 and it's 3 kilometres north of the Arnhem Bridge'. ”

"Tomorrow! The 2nd Airborne Battalion is almost completely wiped out, and now their situation is probably not optimistic! We must hurry up as soon as possible! But Chu looked at Yang Nan and Su Yun, "What is your information?" We were in a hurry. ”

Yang Nan was obviously a little hesitant, but he also understood that the situation was indeed urgent now, and said: "My information is that 'some Allied airdropped materials have been hoarded nearby'. ”

"Oh?" Everyone's eyes lit up.

"My message was '25 km south of the Arnhem Bridge.'" Su Yun shrugged, "That's it." ”

"So, '25 kilometers south of Arnhem', could it also be a side quest?" Tong Qi muttered to himself in a low voice.

But Chu Yi shook his long burgundy hair and said to Su Yun: "Then, Su Yun, you explore the surroundings, where are the airdropped materials?" ”

"In this direction, a few hundred meters away, it's very close, but there are two tanks, a few artillery pieces and about a dozen soldiers." In fact, Su Yun had already probed the surroundings, and immediately pointed out at this moment.

"Very well, then...... Let's go! But Chu got up, Zhongli immediately got up and followed, and the others followed one after another.

"Humph!" Chen Li looked at Dan Chu's good-looking back with an unkind face. Originally, I was grasping the situation, but after this little lady introduced the situation, she slowly became listening to her.

"Brother Chen, I have to rely on your help below." Wang Hao followed next to Chen Li, bowing his head and currying favor.

"Humph! Finally, it will not be for nothing. Chen Li thought secretly and followed.

Su Yun found that Han Buyi, Chen Li, Dan Chu, and Zhongli were all wearing the same military uniforms, which were the airborne uniforms of the British red berets, while Wang Hao wore a colorful T-shirt, Yang Nan wore a shirt, and Su Yun himself was also a T-shirt.

Wang Hao obviously noticed this, so he asked Chen Li with a flattering face: "Brother Chen, how do you know that you have to wear a military uniform?" ”

"Hahahaha......" Chen Li seemed to be in a flattering mood by Wang Hao, laughed a few times, patted Wang Hao on the shoulder, and kindly explained: "We are veterans, we have all joined the team, and the captain's authority can know the adventure world in advance, and we know the mission in advance, so we prepared the British airborne uniform." You're newcomers, so naturally you don't know, haha. ”

"So that's the case, then Brother Chen also introduced me to join your team!" Wang Hao climbed along the pole.

"Haha, no problem, I'll pull you when the mission is over!" Chen Li said approvingly.
