It was getting dark, and the Luli people accelerated their speed, hoping to get to the next target in time——
The pontoon ferry is located about 1 mile west of Arnhem bridge.
For Lu Li, it is extremely important. Once he can't win it successfully, it means that he will be coerced by the torrent of history: in the original time and space, the first airborne division was forced to get involved in urban street warfare when surrounded by groups and short of food and medicine.
Munk sat in the co pilot's position, holding a machine gun and wanted to sleep for a while, but he was afraid of being suddenly attacked by the enemy and never had a chance to wake up.
Therefore, he can only talk to dispel this negative emotion: "why is there no street lamp in this damn place?"
Arnhem, the capital of heldland Province, has beautiful scenery, railway stations, schools, vacation estates and other buildings. Because of this, many people regarded action as a vacation before airborne.
Now, they had entered the outer city, but monk found that all the street lights in this place were off.
"It's all right. I can see it."
Lu Li's car always led the way in the front, and the direction never deviated, as if he could see at night.
In fact, werewolf lineage can indeed strengthen night vision, and over time, even if the host does not open the two forms, the physical quality will be significantly improved.
For example, when landing last night, Lu Li almost hit the church spire due to visual problems. Now, he can see things beyond the sight of ordinary people.
"There's a high ground ahead. Watch out."
There is no need to remind everyone that the jeep is going uphill, and the highland is a good place for ambush. The enemy only needs to send more than a dozen soldiers, mount machine guns and put a few mortars. It is another fierce battle.
Therefore, as a machine gunner, monk stood up and replaced the Bren light machine gun with a 30 round magazine for ammunition supply, and several other vehicles also acted.
Captain Mackay's engineers left the vehicle and walked along the roadside hedges, while staff sergeant Miller picked up anti tank rockets and waited for flames to jump forward.
In this way, the motorcade moved forward for about 50 meters, and Lu Li suddenly stepped on the brake.
Under the shade of trees, several gun barrels glowed, and even an armored vehicle could be seen faintly.
"Fire flares."
After giving the order, Henry, sitting in the back row, did not hesitate. He directly loaded the rifle with a grenade launcher, took out a flare and fired it into the air.
At this moment, the German commander was still hesitating whether to put the enemy closer and fight again. He heard a gunshot, and then the sky lit up.
"Fire!"
Two commands sounded at the same time.
The sound of tearing the cloth echoed in the ears of the members of the investigation team again.
Lu Li quickly turned around and drove the car to the jungle on the left side of the road. He didn't want the jeep to be beaten into scrap iron by the enemy and then march on foot.
The drivers of several other vehicles followed suit, and only machine gunners and Miller with rocket launchers were fighting back.
The sd.kfz.13 armored reconnaissance vehicle is only protected by armor on the side and top. The armor thickness is 8mm and the protection ability is not strong. It is equipped with mg42 general machine gun with small protective shield. It is an old vehicle and auxiliary tool.
In theory, as long as the piat shooter aims accurately, a shell can blow it over, and it can completely turn the mg42 off.
Unfortunately, on a high-speed jeep, it is too difficult to hit the target with a rocket launcher.
The armor piercing bomb loaded with TNT deviated and exploded in the trees on one side, killing two unlucky German infantry.
In the process of leaving the road, the tire is inevitably penetrated by bullets. Not only that, the casualties of the investigation team are greater.
Jerry, the correspondent sitting directly behind Lu Li, was hit by several bullets. His blood stained the seat and splashed the sniper Henry.
He should die without pain.
Because Lu Li didn't hear anyone wailing except the sound of shooting and engine.
Soon, there was no one over the road, the vehicles drove to the trees, and the German positions stopped fire.
Captain Mackay looked at the soldiers around him and counted them silently. There were 19 people in total. All the other five members were swept by mg42 machine guns.
"There are not many enemies in the front, but they master firearms." Mackay is the highest ranking man. He took over the command responsibly and said in a deep voice: "now there are two plans. First, wait for the company a behind to join them and attack together."
Lu Li nodded and didn't express any opinions. Frankly speaking, he didn't like the scheme. If it was late, it would change. The floating bridge is the key to turning the situation around. There can be no loss!
"Scheme 2: launch a strong attack, kill the armored vehicle with anti tank weapons, and then send infantry to detour to fight the team."
With that, Captain Mackay turned his attention to Lu Li, because he had commanded a battle and won a complete victory.
"Sir, I think speed means victory in this operation."
"After losing the railway bridge, there are only two targets left. If we lose the floating bridge again, we have no choice but to attack the Arnhem bridge."
Lu Li said in an orderly way and added in his heart: in that case, in the next nine days, the second battalion will lack support and supplies, and the living space will be continuously compressed by the armored forces until they die or are captured.
"In that case, get ready to fight."
Captain Mackay was very decisive because he had some clear judgment on the situation and said to Lu Li, "next, you can solve the armored vehicle, just like in the afternoon."
There is a lack of shooters who can use plat in the team, and the performance of killing the enemy's machine gun position a few hours ago shows that he seems to be proficient in this.
Hearing the speech, Lu Li nodded.
Mackay continued to give instructions: "Sergeant Miller, I'll give you two battle teams to find a way to get close to that position and solve them quickly."
"The rest take cover."
With that, he made an offensive gesture to everyone, and the soldiers dispersed orderly.
At this time, Lu Li came to an open land, lowered his head and looked at his watch: 7:11 p.m.
Captain Mackay with a machine gun came over, patted him on the shoulder and told him, "after the flare takes off, you should quickly find the position of the armored vehicle. The life of the attack team depends on the efficiency of your mission."
Lu Li picked up the rocket launcher and said in a deep voice, "don't worry!"
In fact, he had locked the approximate position of the armored vehicle, but he didn't pull the trigger in order not to be too shocking.
"OK."
"Fire flares!"
Then a soldier immediately fired a shot into the air, exposing all the enemy's and our positions.
