In the early hours of the next morning.

The soldiers were shouted at Captain Louis.

Luke yawned and stood up, nodding to the returning Logans.

Louis straightened up with a relaxed smile on his face, "GIs, I have just received news that the command has ordered us to go to Cherbourg, the largest port in northern France, where we will participate in the general assault on Cherbourg. ”

"We will return to the troops with honor and victory!"

A group of veterans also cheered in unison, the crazy Normandy landing, and then the removal of German GIs along the predetermined depth line, now can finally rest for a day or two, or go back as a hero, who can not like this?

As for the big war that followed?

Being a soldier always has to fight, and these veterans have long since learned to enjoy the moment.

As the group began to pack up to cover up their tracks, Louis walked over to the three Lukes, pulled out a couple of cigarettes and handed them to them.

Seeing this thing, even the indifferent Victor smiled, quickly took the cigarette, and began to flutter with Louis's fire.

Luke shook his head slightly, "Thanks, I don't smoke." ”

Louis smiled, took back the cigarette and said, "Then you will lose one of the great joys of life, on the battlefield, cigarettes are the life of soldiers." ”

At this time, cigarettes also had a stimulating and refreshing effect, and the U.S. military issued a pack of cigarettes a day during the war, and the effect was similar to morphine.

Louis wrapped the cigarette in his arms, looked at Logan and Victor, and said, "What are your plans when you get to Cherbourg?" ”

Victor looked at Rogan with a cloud of mist in his eyes, these two people are rough people, rarely use their brains, and most of them are determined by Logan.

"We've accumulated enough merits, but we shouldn't be leaving the battlefield for the time being, what are your plans?"

Logan followed Louis's words.

At the moment, if this return goes well, the two of them will be at least a lieutenant, and they will be at the same level as Louis, and they can each lead a team.

However, in order not to expose themselves, the two Rogan will rarely accept it, but will ask for some military medals and financial rewards.

"I want you guys to act with me, when my teammates, my brother is a colonel, and the U.S. military is going to secretly organize a special squad, I think we'll be good teammates. Of course, I won't swallow you for the credit. ”

Luis smiled wryly, "I just wanted to add some security." ”

Assemble a special squad?

Roaring Commando?

No, it's another world.

Luke shook his head silently, but unexpectedly was seen by Logan, and immediately said: "Our two brothers are used to being savage, I'm afraid they can't be qualified for more special tasks, thank you for the captain's kindness." ”

Louis looked at Luke with an embarrassed face, then nodded silently and walked away.

Seeing Louis walking away, Logan and Victor approached Luke and whispered, "What do you think?" ”

Apparently asking why he shook his head just now.

But how could Luke say that he had just lost his mind?

He immediately replied: "The more special the exposure, the greater the risk, you should have accumulated a lot of military merits, and you have always been a big soldier, but it will attract the attention of others." ”

Victor asked, "Then are we going to be non-commissioned officers?" We worked in World War I, but then we were reported by our teammates. ”

It's really embarrassing, discrimination against mutants turned out to be from the First World War?

Luke smiled slightly, feeling a little bit of victory, and said: "Don't worry, since I have spoken, there is naturally a way, let's go back together first, after I solve the identity, and then take you to make a fortune." ”

"Get rich!"

Victor was excited when he heard these two words, and Logan frowned: "I don't want others to notice us more than to get rich." ”

Luke gave Logan a blank look, "Although we are both mutants, we are different here. ”

Luke stretched out his finger and pointed at his brain, and Victor laughed at Rogan frantically on the side, and Logan shook his head helplessly.

"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"

The three of them hurriedly packed their things, put on their backpacks and marched with the team, it was very safe along the way, the Axis countries were losing and retreating, and the Normandy landings made Germany still not organize a decent counteroffensive force, but the Allies had already killed the door of Germany and the Soviet army on the east and west fronts, forming a two-fold situation.

When I returned, I was far less apprehensive than I had come, and I even met many Allied soldiers along the way, mostly British and American.

A day later, in the evening, the team arrived near Cherbourg, and not far away there was the rumbling of heavy artillery, which should have been warships or shore defense guns, and the Germans were still resisting, but they were gone.

Cherbourg is densely packed with tents, and the city is still a war zone, where the two sides will stalemate for a while.

The scout who was exploring the path in front brought back a sentry, who guided Louis's team through the minefield before entering the camp safely.

The camp was bustling with people, topless GIs and wounded men who were ready to be brought back from the front lines, and occasionally the sound of thirsty joy could be heard from the tents.

Luke took a closer look, and most of the tents that made the noise were officers' tents.

It's really going to be fun.

The team was housed in an empty tent and rested briefly for the night, before taking part in the attack on Cherbourg the next day.

In the early hours of the next morning, Luke was pulled up by Logan for a meeting.

In the camp of the U.S. military, the identity of the 101st Airborne Division is still very compelling, and Luke saw many people saluting and whistling at him.

Walking into a tent, Louis was already standing inside, led by an ordinary middle-aged man.

It's a lieutenant colonel.

Seeing Logan and Luke arrive, he nodded slightly, which made Luke see his dark circles clearly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the situation is not optimistic."

"The resistance of the Germans was stronger than we thought, they not only surrounded Cherbourg into an iron barrel, but also arranged all kinds of bombs, mines along the path."

"The tanks that we are proud of in the Pacific theater will not help either, the Germans have a new weapon, an iron fist."

Louis put down his smoking hand and asked, "What is the Iron Fist?" ”

"The latest bazooka of the German army, our Sherman tanks are a little vulnerable in front of the iron fist, plus their mortars are very accurate, and in the past few days, our losses have been great."

The lieutenant on the other side asked, "What does that mean?" ”

The lieutenant colonel shook his head with a wry smile, "Tonight, I will take you to attack once, the purpose is to clean up the German defenses on the periphery of Cherbourg and weaken the German army as much as possible." ”

Louis flicked his finished cigarette holder to the ground and said, "Sounds dangerous." ”

The lieutenant colonel shook his head slightly, "There is nothing that is not dangerous in a war, I hope everything goes well tonight, you will be assigned to my command first, we are the 4th Regiment of the 3rd Infantry Brigade of the 9th Infantry Division of the Army, and I am the regiment commander Walton Andrew." ”

"This is your battalion commander, Simmons Nut."

These last few words are addressed to Logan and Louis.

The two nodded slightly, and Captain Andrew strode out, he had other things to arrange.

As for the battalion commander Simmons Nut, he stayed, squeezed out a smile on his bearded face, looked at Logan and said: "The four of you will remain in a squad for the time being, wait for the logistics to report the military merits, and we will be liquidated after taking Cherbourg." ”

The four of them nodded in unison, and there was no exception to Luke's special status.

The battalion commander of Nat explained a few more words, and left in a hurry, as an infantry battalion, they are the most difficult existence, and they have to take the lead in the attack at night, the Sherman tank has little effect, and the tank may not be allowed to assist in the attack, and eighty percent of them have to be filled with human lives.

The group returned to the big tent, where Joseph and the others had been.

Seeing Logan and Victor returning, several people breathed a sigh of relief.

They all knew the strength of Logan and Victor, and naturally they wanted to stay by their side, which is why the lieutenant colonel came to meet them and ordered them to attack at night.

"You thought you could rest for two days in Cherbourg? Why is it useless to even have a rest time, and the military merits are temporarily stored, and what is the use of the military merits when we die? ”

The GI next to Joseph said that he was the communications soldier in the team, Chloe.

Louis also sighed, "It's hard to do it, we have to act tonight, let's clean it up quickly." ”

Everyone shouted bitterly, but they honestly packed up their things to replenish ammunition.

Logan and Victor came to Luke's side and whispered, "Follow us tonight, it's safer." ”

Of course, Luke would not refuse Logan's kindness, and replied with a smile: "Okay, then please two of you." ”

"Hehe, we might need you to evacuate urgently!"

Victor laughed weirdly.

Luke turned his head to look at Victor, "You're scared of your crazy recovery abilities?" ”

Logan shook his head, "With strong abilities and heavy artillery bombardment, it will be difficult for us to survive. ”

Is it?

How does Luke remember that Logan seems to have been nuke-bombed?

Shaking his head, he concentrated on preparing what he was holding and changing into the clothes of the infantryman, the clothes of the 101st Airborne Division were too conspicuous.

In the afternoon, the team got on the truck and went to the camp at the front.

Everyone lurked quietly in the camp, looking out from the trenches of the camp, there were traces of the city not far away, this is the front city of Cherbourg, Montburg.

Hit here and in the city of Barneville to see the real Cherbourg.

Luke put on his steel helmet and clenched the semi-automatic rifle in his hand.

Victor smiled and patted Luke on the shoulder, "Don't be nervous, follow us and promise you won't die!" ”

Victor is still thinking about the glory and wealth in the future, and the surface work must be done in place.

Logan also wore a helmet, and he was still fighting with a firearm before he had claws.

Occasionally, there is also a habit of smashing people with spears.

Everyone lowered their figures and listened quietly.

After a while, the roar of bombers was heard overhead, and the air raid began.

The anti-aircraft guns and mortars in Fort Monte began to work, and the American troops waited patiently for their time.

This is an old tradition of the US military, before the battle, the air force attacked, and then the infantry slowly advanced, if the casualties in the advance were large, then the air force had to be called back and fly again.

No way, you German army has no air supremacy!
