Chapter 13: Roar, Gneisenau

(PS: The typhoon in Wenzhou city is roaring, and the power outage has been out from yesterday to now, and the lack will be made up today.) )

"Woo~~ Boom!" With loud screeches passing through the sky from time to time, Casablanca, which had just ushered in the dawn of dawn, fell into a nightmarish hell.

The Gneisenau is armed with three triple 283mm guns with a rate of fire of 2.5 rounds per minute. The cannonball crossed several kilometers of the harbor at twice the speed of sound, falling inland from above the city, and each salvo of its main guns reduced a small half of the block to rubble.

Not to mention the indigenous people of Casablanca and the Allied forces, even superhumans like Skorzny can't help but lift their hearts upwards when they hear that terrible scream, as if they are standing on the edge of a cliff.

"Boom!" A shell landed not far in front of the Einsatzgruppen hideout, probably less than 50 meters away.

Qin Lun and the others only felt that the ground under their feet shook violently, as if they were in the midst of endless stormy waves. Before everyone's eyes, a 330-kilogram shell smashed into the Casablanca garrison like a giant hammer. As if the huge military building had been bitten by a giant beast, the main building collapsed in part, revealing many half-sized rooms in the building.

In fact, aside from the Gneisenau's impressive main guns, it was its 12 150mm secondary guns that did the most damage to Casablanca. The secondary guns carried special incendiary bombs that almost reduced the center of Casablanca to a sea of fire.

……

"Elaine, Elaine, where are you? Ahem! Liv Gelman ran out of the room unkempt, her face black and her whole body looking like a little beggar.

She hadn't recovered from the fierce battle of last night, and the red-haired girl was already lethargic, and she was still asleep at dawn. When she woke up to the sound of the explosion, she thought she was having a nightmare. A 283-millimeter shell hit the lobby of the hotel where they were staying, and the ensuing explosion nearly toppled the roof of the hotel.

"Liv, I'm here, are you alright!" The white-haired girl held a sheathed Western stabbing sword in her hand, covered her mouth and nose with one hand, and walked out of the gray dust and smoke.

"You...... Hahaha, you're so cool! Liv looked at it, and suddenly pointed to her companion, and smiled backwards.

"I'm not like you little lazy cat, I didn't even take off my clothes last night and got into the bed!" Elaine looked down at the three-point pose on her body, and lifted her rounded chin without changing her face.

"I ...... That's because I'm so tired! Liv raised her fist in annoyance, "Besides, the teacher has long said that during the fight, it is best to leave your clothes untied. The same group of Grimm hunters, even when they are resting, at least one of them must be vigilant, I am here to take care of you! ”

"Don't make excuses, little lazy cat!" The white-haired girl squinted her eyes and glanced at her companion with disdain, "Even if the men in Philip's group are like you, they won't lie on the bed without even taking a shower after the battle!" ”

"Hehe, at least now I don't have to rummage through the garbage to get dressed!" The red-haired girl said with a grin.

"I hate those Germans!" The white-haired girl looked at the hotel room, which was almost in ruins, and pouted in shame.

More than ten minutes later, the two walked out of the ruins of the hotel.

"Hee-hee, Elaine, don't be angry, in fact, you are quite handsome in this set of men's clothes!" Liv winked her eyes meaningfully at her companion.

"Shut up!" Elaine shook her tied white ponytail and threw a sanitary eye at her companion, "What now, do you want to go to that Allied 'venue'?" ”

"I think...... We should find the professor first! Liv tilted her head and thought about it, not immediately agreeing with Elaine's opinion.

"Mom~~" When the two girls were hesitating, a childish cry came from the street.

The two turned their heads to look, and saw a little boy of two or three years old kneeling in front of the ruins of a house not far from the hotel. The little boy wiped tears from his eyes with one hand, and the other chubby little hand struggled to reach into a small hole under the rubble.

"Little friend, it's dangerous here, get out of this ......" Elaine tightened her face and quickly ran to the front of the house and picked up the little boy.

"No, I want Mom!" The little boy didn't appreciate it, and struggled to break free from the white-haired girl.

"Elaine, look!"

Beneath the hole in the ruins of the dwelling, a jet-black arm stretched out from the hole, and the palm of the hand twisted and clucked into the dirt. This is a woman's hand, which is supposed to be the little boy's mother.

"She only had time to push the kid away......" Elaine was silent for a moment before she said, "Are we going to meet the professor?" ”

"No, let's stay, the shelling of the German battleships is not over yet, the Allies will not care about the lives and deaths of civilians in Casablanca, we can save more people if we stay!" The mischievous smile on Liv's face was gone, replaced by a stern look on her face.

"I'll put him to sleep, let's go, hand him over to the escaped civilians first, and then we'll start searching for the other survivors under the rubble." The white-haired eldest daughter looked at the little boy in her arms and sighed, "Now I know why the professor changed the guild's original intention and let us join the war. ”

"Those Germans are too much, even wars shouldn't involve civilians!" The red-haired girl gritted her teeth and said, "I should have held on a little more last night, and when you came to help, they wouldn't be able to escape." ”

"Forget it, didn't you say it, those two guys are very explosive, and I didn't force them to stay. Moreover, the Allies had already learned from last night's battle intelligence that the commander of the Germans was the SS leader Skorzny, who was known as the 'ghost of Europe', and I am afraid that he was the only one who would give such an order for shelling without regard for civilian casualties. Elaine said hatefully.

……

"Are there any living people?" In the tattered fortifications, an Allied corporal pressed a steel helmet on his head and shouted to his comrades with a disgraced face.

"Corporal!"

"Corporal, I'm glad you're still alive!" In the smoke of gunpowder, a sparse response sounded. Several Allied soldiers pushed away sandbags and crawled out of the collapsed fortifications.

"One, two, three...... Hey, what about Carl? Is he dead? The corporal counted the men and found that the youngest soldier in the squad was missing.

"I'm here!" In the white smoke, a muffled voice came faintly, and then a figure threw out the smoke in a strange posture, and fell towards them with teeth and claws.

"Bang!" The corporal reached out to hug the figure that rushed at him, but was carried to the ground by the heavy body of the other party.

"Carl, why are you getting heavy, hey, get up from me...... Hey, you're ......."

The corporal struggled to push his companion's body away, and stood up only to realize that Karl was not right. His complexion was pale and bloodless, and he had two small holes in his neck, as if he had been bitten by some animal. With wide eyes and an unbelievable look of horror, he had been dead for a long time.

Karl is already dead, so whose voice is it just now! The Allied corporal jerked his head to look up at the confused smoke ahead.

"Ahh Just as the corporal opened his mouth to remind his soldiers, a continuous scream sounded beside him. A black figure swooped down from the sky like a large bird and landed behind a soldier, bowing his head and biting his neck.

With the attack of this unknown creature, the smoke behind them seemed to come to life, swarming towards everyone. A lion-headed monster threw out the smoke, and its thick arms stretched out left and right, holding down the heads of each of the two soldiers.

"Poof!" The heads of the two soldiers burst in front of the corporal's eyes, and blood and brains splattered his head and face.

"What's that?" The corporal was shocked and angry, and subconsciously raised his M4 submachine gun, about to shoot at the two monsters in front of him.

"I don't think you should do that!" A German with a thick Munich accent rang in the corporal's ears, and at the same time, a large hand bypassed the corporal's side and gently rested on the lower part of the submachine gun, raising the muzzle of the gun.

"Da Da Da!" With the sound of gunfire, the corporal felt a cold dagger attached to his neck.

"Wow!" The corporal clutched his bloody throat and fell backwards with a stunned expression, and the last thing he saw was a British lieutenant with a light gray indifferent look behind him.

"Lieutenant Colonel, why don't you use the Americans' uniforms?" Qin Lun quickly pushed away the corporal's corpse to avoid being splashed with blood on his body to disguise his identity.

"Hehe, this is the construction of the local intelligence officer. You can avoid a lot of trouble with the British uniform, at least you won't be temporarily dispatched by the American army on the road! Skorzny smiled and said, "Even in the event of cross-examination, we can pretend not to know the Americans' passwords." ”

"It's a pity that you can't get into the museum in the military uniform of the British!" Qin Lun shrugged his shoulders.

"You can't get in with the uniforms of the Americans, and it's guarded by special forces of the Allies. Look at the uniforms of these soldiers, they are not ordinary troops, they are the most elite 101 Airborne Division of the Americans! Captain Bock walked from behind the two of them, a glint in his eyes, "Looks like we've been able to see what these fellow men are capable of this time." ”

"Baron, since the shelling, has the museum allowed those big people to move elsewhere?" Skorzny asked, turning around.

"No, no, my doppelganger has been watching those three targets, but no one has come out of them!" Weidenbeeller frowned tightly and said cautiously.

"Lieutenant Colonel, I think these three buildings should have underground shelters, and they shouldn't blindly move around, and it's very likely that they will shrink underground." Grant said calmly, "Now it's time for us to make a decision, which target to attack?" ”

The three suspicious targets they had identified were the Casablanca Museum, the largest bank building in the city, and the Allied Security Station. Now all three buildings are under the watchful care of the Gneisenau, and they are three piles of dilapidated ruins, almost razed to the ground, and the outer fortifications and the surrounding neighborhoods are completely destroyed and turned into a sea of fire.

"It's already morning, and the Gneisenau is about to engage the British fleet and can no longer give us artillery support. We were well manned and couldn't attack three targets at the same time, and the two Shermans in front of the museum hadn't been transferred so far, so we chose it! ”

Skorzny looked firmly ahead, "The reorganized commando fighters are scattered around, and they will be responsible for holding off enemy reinforcements for us until the whole army is destroyed!" We'll probably have less than twenty minutes. ”

"Attack, German gentlemen!"
