Lei Rui knew that he remembered the sad things, or, as Captain Miller said, remembered the happy things of the past, but the happy things in these memories were now a source of pain for him.

He couldn't comfort him, and he didn't know how to comfort Melly, who was choking and crying with his head in his arms, so he could only try to stammer, "Melly, I'...... Know...... Are you reminded of the happy things you used to have, you ...... Maybe you can, I mean, you can talk to me if you want. ”

Melly looked up, tears and snot running together, messing up the neat moustache on his upper lip, and tried to speak, but choked and couldn't speak.

Lei Rui walked over and wanted to give him a warm hug, but he didn't expect this move to make Melly cry even more uncontrollably, crying and saying intermittently: "They ...... They're all dead, and I'm the only one left...... One person ......"

A sense of empathetic grief surged into Lei Rui's heart, and when Meli said they, of course, meant his family, all died, and naturally they all died at the hands of the Nazis.

Lei Rui patted Merry on the back to calm him down, and after Lei Rui returned to the MG42 machine gun, Merry took a deep breath and slowly spoke in a deep voice.

Melly's family is a big family, he is the eldest in the family, there is a younger brother and a younger sister below, the whole family, as well as grandparents, two uncles, and an aunt, before the Nazis began to persecute the Jews, he and his cousin of the same age went to New York to study, and in less than a year, the Nazi persecution of the Jews escalated rapidly, and the whole big family, on a cold winter night, was set on fire by members of the Hitler Youth, organized and premeditated to be burned alive.

With grief and hatred, he and his cousin joined the army and crossed the ocean, and finally set foot in Europe again, one step closer to home, but his cousin was not as lucky as him, and slept in the desert of North Africa.

In the entire Nuoda family, only Merry is left alone. Before they were persecuted to death by the Nazis, they left a large sum of money for Melly's study abroad in New York, enough for Melly to complete his finance studies and start his career on Wall Street as a start-up capital.

Lei Rui then understood why on the day of the beach landing battle, Merry was so grief-stricken when he got the saber of the Hitler Youth handed to him by Capazzo, and later, when facing a group of German prisoners of war, he took the trouble to hold up his identity card and tell them over and over again: "Hey, I'm a Jew!" Come and get me, you son of a bitch! ”

After recounting the painful experience, Merry calmed down a lot, he took out the cigarette, sniffed it, and said to Lei Rui very seriously: "Lei, thank you for listening to me so much, I feel much better now." ”

Lei Rui smiled and replied: "It's okay, Merry, by the way, remember what you said, when you go to Wall Street to make a fortune after the war, don't forget to count me in!" ”

"I will, Ray, I will!" "I've already agreed with Capazzo that he'll come over and be my full-time driver!" That guy, he loves cars so much, I have no doubt that if the world allowed men to marry cars, he would be the first bastard to have a big wedding with cars. ”

Lei Rui and Melly looked at each other and laughed, Capazzo, an Italian who is passionate about life, should now be on the hospital ship, facing the harassment and control of those beautiful female nurses every day.

The first machine-gun position where the two of them were, on the first floor of the abandoned house, with the hole facing the passage on the right, whispered about some of Capazo's troubles, and before he knew it, Merry had recovered from the grief just now.

A roar came from far and near, and Merry saw that Lei Rui's expression was tight, and he listened carefully, and asked, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? ”

"Leybin and Jason are back!" Lei Rui replied.

But Merry listened carefully, but heard nothing, and after a while he heard the roar of the half-track from a distance.

He also thought that Lei Rui was listening attentively, but he didn't expect that Lei Rui's current perception ability was nearly 1.5 times that of him, and he could hear sounds farther away, and he could also hear more subtle sounds.

The two came out of the machine-gun position, together with the others, converged to Captain Miller, the roar of the half-track motorcycle, all the way forward from outside the town, and then bypassed the left passage, Leybin braked the car, Jason jumped out of the car and said to Captain Miller: "Captain, the Germans are coming, 2 Tiger tanks, at least 3 Weasel self-propelled anti-tank guns, 2 SdKfz 251 universal half-tracks, infantry regiments of more than 50 people!" ”

When everyone heard this, they didn't even feel in the mood to gasp, but were completely shocked and confused, the German mixed infantry formation, which was over-equipped, did not look like it was at all to seize the bridge, but to launch an attack on the landing site!

With such a disparity in strength, how can this offensive and defensive battle be fought?

Can't fight at all!

All of them were on the same page, looking at Captain Miller, waiting for his decision!

Captain Miller had a resolute face and determination to fight, and was not affected by the strength of the enemy at all, and said loudly: "OK, Corporal Hansen has reported to the command that reinforcements are on their way to rush over, and our task is to hinder the enemy's attack and wait for reinforcements to arrive." Now, everyone in their reserved positions, get ready for battle! ”

Before he could finish speaking, Lei Rui heard the roar of tanks in the distance, rumbling, and every moment later, the sound became a little louder, indicating that the enemy army was hurrying towards the town.

They may have wanted to end the battle before nightfall and take the Langlem Bridge to clear the way for a larger attack.

Lei Rui and Merry quickly returned to the machine gun position, quietly preparing for battle, the roar of the tank was already outside the town, the ground was trembling slightly, the bricks, sand and gravel were trembling, and they couldn't stop rolling down.

"Damn," Melly suddenly whispered at this time, "two Tiger tanks!" The Germans are really willing to spend their money! ”

Lei Rui crouched behind the MG42 machine gun, smiled sideways, and said to Merry: "Merry, the enemy outside, leave it to this big guy to solve, your bullets are spared, in the later stage of the battle, maybe we have to fight with the enemy soldiers hand-to-hand!" No bullets! ”

As soon as the words fell, the tank snorted, and the roar took a turn and stopped.

"! The Germans are going to prepare for artillery fire first! Lei Rui looked up left and right, as if to check for any danger around him.

As soon as the words fell, bah! Bang! There were two loud noises in succession, and the ground was shaken, and the 88mm main gun of the German Tiger tank was fired!
