Assault Team Strikes Again (3)
A week later, the coalition engineering unit finally built the model, although the captured people already knew the horror of the German fortifications, but after looking at the model, Sun Qian and others still felt the horror of the whole fortification, the intricate lanes, like a maze of underground communication trenches. Living quarters, combat areas, ammunition storage areas, and even entertainment areas. When the well-functioning defense system was displayed in front of everyone, it was really eye-opening, and even the Maginot Line after it had learned bad experience from the middle.
The ammunition supply of the entire defense system alone was enough for the Germans to squander for several years, and you say that this battle can be fought well?
With the arrival of various troops, Sun Qian began to get busy. The first step was the reorganization of the troops, and the troops without experience in assault operations could not adapt to this mode of operation at all, so Sun Gan had no choice but to disperse the personnel of the entire assault battalion into various units, but now there was an entire regiment of troops in Sun Gan's hands, and there was no room for carelessness.
When the reorganization of the troops was finally completed, Sun Gan was stumped by the language barrier, and it was easy to speak English, but it was impossible to communicate with French at all, and it was impossible to return the French army, so in the end, he had no choice but to let the coalition army supplement a certain number of translators to temporarily solve the communication problem. But this undoubtedly adds a shadow to the success of the operation.
Moreover, although Sun Gan was promoted to major by the fire line assault, Sun Qian is still too young in the eyes of some people, after all, Sun Qian is not yet 20 years old. For the coalition officers who were much older than him, Sun Gan could not command at all, which made it impossible to carry out the orders and prohibitions of the troops, and in the end, if the coalition headquarters had not transferred a few officers who were provoking trouble, it was estimated that Sun Gan would have been able to command and mobilize the original assault battalion.
Finally, there is the issue of equipment, although the Allied forces have equipped everyone with the best weapons, but these are not suitable for assault operations, you must know that the lack of repeating weapons is not only the lack of the Allied forces, but also the German army is only a part of the commando team. In the end, at the request of the Allied Command, the captured German weapons were transferred from the entire Allied forces to solve the problem.
In the end, almost all of Sun Gan's commandos were replaced by German weapons, except for clothes and a small number of self-defense weapons. From pistols to machine guns, from grenades to flames@shooters, all switched to German-style equipment. As for the ammunition supply of these weapons, it is not so complicated, if the mission is successfully completed, the entire ammunition depot of the German army will be theirs, if it is not successful, the current ammunition reserve will be enough for Sun Qian and them to escape.
When everything was ready, Sun Qian began to conduct tactical training day and night. The entire training was filled with the roars of the assault battalion soldiers who acted as instructors.
"Are you a pig, can't you see such an obvious machine-gun position in front, do you want to be beaten into a sieve?";
"What do you want to do, you stupid pig, do you want to give all your teammates' lives to the Germans?";
"Stupid, how do you make tactical moves, look at it, I'll show you.";
"Bastard, you roll me down, stand so high, do you think the enemy is short-sighted?";
"Remove your muzzle from me, are you going to hit your comrade's black gun from behind?";
"Hey, man, fire@jet@ isn't available in this kind of place, do you want us all to make dirt planes, can't you see that this is a gun emplacement, it's full of shells, we'd better switch to a bow and crossbow in this kind of place, what do you think?";
"Pay attention to your opposite corner and remember, you must be careful when entering a room, especially where there are corners."
During the entire training period, almost all the soldiers of the US assault battalion shouted hoarsely, which shows how difficult it is to change the habits of these soldiers.
When half a month had passed, the entire assault regiment had finally taken shape, and Sun Qian watched as the maturing troops began to conduct real assault training. He divided the entire fortification into many small pieces, detailed the combat objectives of the entire unit, and demanded that all the team members could find their assault targets at the first time, even with their eyes closed.
At this time, a batch of submachine @ guns urgently produced by the coalition forces according to the German ammunition standard was also delivered, and the firepower of these commandos has been significantly improved.
In the run-in day after day, some players were eliminated and new players were added.
When the time came to a month, Sun Gan's assault team finally completed the entire assault training. The entire German fortifications were finally figured out by the soldiers. Eventually, they will go to war again.
Marshal Petain and General Pershing did not come to see each other, not even a single senior officer, not because they didn't want to, but because they really wanted to guard against the German spies, and the previous frequent personnel and material transfers were still discovered by the German spies, which was one of the reasons why Sun Qian had to take action immediately.
When a whole regiment of troops climbed the cliff, even the commander of the defending unit was taken aback.
So they do a good job of secrecy.
When the time came to two o'clock in the evening, the artillery of the coalition army finally sounded on time on the entire German defense line, obviously the German army did not expect the coalition army to launch an attack at this time, and it took half an hour to start an organized counterattack, and this is Sun Gan has led his troops to quietly touch the flank of the German army on the opposite side. They will be here this time to hide and wait, the coalition forces will transfer another regiment of troops up the next day, they will launch a counter-charge against the German troops in front, Sun Qian will launch an attack at the right time, after breaking through the German defense line as quickly as possible, they will go straight to the fortifications of the German Fourth Army closest to them, there is a very hidden entrance, even some Germans do not know, it was added by the German logistics at that time for convenience, they will rush in from there. As for whether the frontal German army would send out the news of their attack as soon as possible, Sun Qian could only ignore it, and no one could completely avoid the risks in the war.
The painful wait continued until the next morning, and after thinking that the artillery fire had ceased for a while, the allied decoting troops launched an attack on the Germans in front of them, because they had not been on high alert before, even after a night of shelling.
Sun Qian's opportunity was good, and the time was just right. He took advantage of the time when the Germans left their positions to launch a surprise attack on the remaining German troops, and after a short surprise attack, he smoothly rushed along the edge of the German defensive line, leaving enough troops to intercept the pursuers, Sun Qian led the main force of the assault regiment straight to the hidden exit of the German Fourth Army's fortifications.
