Chapter 410

When Baru took people to the suspected British garrison barracks, he found that the owner had changed there. Company 3 has occupied almost empty barracks with hundreds of tents, trenches and dug bathrooms. Unfortunately, according to information provided by a British prisoner, the British battalion commander left half an hour ago with about 30 British soldiers. It is said that he went to bit town.

The good news is that we have found the positions of two companies and three companies, and we have also found the battalion commander - the whole parachute barracks did not suffer as much as they did during the exercise. About 100 people were killed or missing, so we have controlled the whole parachute landing area.

By the time borol arrived at the battalion, his company had almost recovered. 95 soldiers have found their own troops. According to the proportion of paratroopers lost, this is a very successful airborne operation.

"Borol, your target should be 2 kilometers away. It's roughly estimated that there should be at least 60 British soldiers stationed in this small town, and you know, the British battalion commander is in the small town." The battalion commander pointed to the map and said, "it's 3:25. You still have less than 2 hours to occupy there. Is there any problem?"

"If I say there is a problem, you will not give me more troops. There seems to be no difference between having a problem and having no problem." "So I don't think it's a problem," he replied with a smile

"You see, it's a pleasure to talk to people like you. Get the hell out of here! Or I'll kick your ass! " With a smile, the battalion commander threw a packet of British cigarettes to borol: "at 5:30, the landing troops are going to move. Hurry up!"

"No problem." Borol nodded with a smile, then pocketed his cigarette and left the battalion commander's headquarters with his weapon on his back. He gathered his soldiers and took the 95 paratroopers along a path to his goal.

Soon they found that the road had been blown off, and there was a large pit with a diameter of more than 15 meters on the ground, which was obviously a masterpiece left by earlier German bombers. They also found the bodies of more than a dozen British soldiers and a large caliber anti-aircraft gun beside the crater.

"These guys from the air force are really good at bombing." A paratrooper with a G43 rifle stood beside the body and sighed. The hapless British soldiers were so close to the crater that the shrapnel screened them and twisted some parts of the cannon.

"If they could be more accurate, we would not have been abused by so much gunfire when we jumped down just now." Baru snorted and said with a curl of his mouth. People are like this, always like to complain, but after complaining, the days will continue, the war will continue, and the breathing will continue.

Soon, the outline of a small town appeared in front of everyone's eyes. Borol signaled the troops to hide, and then assigned the attack task with several officers such as Baru.

"Baru! You take a platoon of troops to attack directly. If the other side has machine gun fire, knock it out with iron fist. The second platoon is advancing in parallel here. We don't need to annihilate each other completely. It's easier to drive them out of the town and then kill them in the open space in the back. The third row follows me, coming in from here. Everyone is leaning against the wall! Try not to cross the street Borol pointed to the map and said.

Then he took a look at several snipers: "you choose your own sniper location, but I want you to be able to provide cover for the infantry in front of you in the first time." In fact, night snipers don't have much range advantage. They can only aim and shoot according to the muzzle fire of the opponent's fire. It's good to have half the accuracy of the day.

Then, he looked at several Gunners: "I need you to organize fire here, here and here to suppress all visible enemy forces! Do you understand? "

When all the tasks were finished, he checked his ammunition, then bowed to his own position, waved to Balu not far away, and signaled them to move forward together. For fear that the dark would affect his sight, he also called out in a voice: "attack!"

German soldiers with the order over the town around the fence and bushes, bending over the grass, slowly toward the nearby buildings.

"Suddenly! Suddenly, suddenly It seems that the garrison of the town found these German soldiers. A British machine gun position opened fire. A German soldier was hit in the chest and fell to the ground with a scream.

Soon the cover machine guns behind the German troops began to roar, and the unique sound of tearing linen began to spread. The bullets rained on the machine gun positions arranged in high places in Britain, where there was no sound immediately.

German Paratroopers got up and went on. With sporadic gunfire, it was obvious that airborne troops were everywhere, which made the British a little confused in defense. They did not know in which direction the attack would take place, so they had to spread their forces around and set up a circular line of defense, which obviously wasted their small forces.

In the attack direction of German Paratroopers, there are only a dozen poor British people, because most of them are still using bolt rifles, so the firepower density is even more poor. With a few shots of German snipers, the British soldiers' counterattack became more sparse, and the German Paratroopers rushed into the town after two people were killed.

"Remove all obstacles! Fire first, then confirm the target Borol ordered loudly. Before he set out, he was told a note: Britain distributed grenades to every family as a weapon to die together, so don't be soft hearted when facing civilians. He rushed into a yard with two men, kicked open the door and pulled the trigger on the British civilians who were huddled together inside. Soon the room became a river of blood. A British soldier and a family of six were killed, and the room became a safe place. At the same time, the British fought in the government office building of the town. The Germans were not polite. They killed the British machine gun positions with iron fist bazookas, and then rushed in with guns to kill all the remaining British troops and civilians who were shocked to the ground. In fact, the German intelligence department is making a fuss. Although in London, Brighton, Dover and other areas, the British distributed grenades and other weapons to civilian families, because of the limited number, they have not been able to spread to Norwich. And even if it was distributed to Norwich, it would not immediately spread to such small towns as bit. Obviously, the German Paratroopers started a massacre without knowing it. Because of this, a third of the town with a population of about 3000 people died overnight. If the remaining representatives of the citizens had not braved the courage to negotiate with borol for a long time, the loss figure would have been higher. Knowing that the town didn't distribute grenades, borol gave an order to stop shooting civilians. At 5 o'clock sharp, the sky was already gray and bright. Except for two British soldiers who surrendered, the rest have been killed by German Paratroopers. After about 40 minutes of resistance, the 67 British soldiers in bit town completed their mission of loyalty to the British Empire“ Take this and spread all the flags you can find on the roof Borol looked at the dial on his wrist and ordered in a loud voice, "use that special fireworks stick. If you can't, find something to burn a big ten thousand characters! Hurry up At 5:15, it was the second time for the German air force to air raid Norwich. Just after a hard battle, the German Paratroopers had to be busy again before they could catch their breath. If they were killed by their own bombs, they would be wronged. Balu took people to the roof and hurriedly spread a huge German flag on the roof of the tallest building in the town. Other people started to spread the flag nearby, but the flag carried by individual soldiers was much smaller. When we put together the car we found into a huge ten thousand words, the German bombers in the sky also arrived. This time, the bombers included hundreds of Stuka with bombs and hundreds of do-217 medium-sized bombers. These planes generally flew low in order to distinguish the jagged occupied area of German Paratroopers. Soon the German planes dropped their bombs and destroyed some of the targets they could find. British artillery positions near the beach became the main target of the bombing. And the railroads and towns near Norwich were blown up. Originally, there were not as many British air defense forces near Norwich as there were near London. After two large-scale bombing and the destruction of paratroopers, there were not many left. Although the poor British troops knew the news of the large-scale German Paratroopers in Norwich, they have not been able to gather strength up to now, Counterattack against German airborne troops in this area. Next to Norwich, 50 Crusader helicopters took off from the Navy aircraft carrier. These planes carried rockets and machine guns, and were temporarily equipped with bulletproof steel plates. They were used as armed helicopters. They crossed the British coastline and appeared on top of German Paratroopers. The appearance was a bit bloody. Two helicopters were shot down by British air defense fire, resulting in the tragic end of aircraft destruction and human death. This kind of weapons and equipment obviously not suitable for appearing in the frontal battlefield was just a temporary "guest appearance", and they paid the price for their crossing the border. At 5:21, the motionless Montgomery finally received the phone call he had been waiting for. In Norwich, he found the huge landing fleet that had disappeared from Germany.
