Chapter 572： New enemy situation

Soldier David quickly squatted on the ground, and took the mortar he was carrying from the ground, holding the barrel in his left hand and the bottom plate with his right hand.

This posture is almost indistinguishable from that of the island country’s bullet grenades.

Yes, this kind of thing is a bit too much to call a mortar. In fact, it is just a grenadier.

This is a 2-inch gun. If converted to a metric system, it’s 51 mm. It can be found that the caliber is small and easy to carry. In the British team, this mortar has one in the command post of each platoon. Each company has three doors. It can be said that when the troops lack heavy weapons, this mortar is their main weapon.

From the point of view of range and ammunition power, it is not as good as the French 60mm mortar. Compared with the Japanese grenadier, it has a slightly larger range and higher accuracy. Especially with simple sights, it is easy to master for novices. .

Yes, this mortar also has a simple sight.

At this time, after David put the mortar down, he started to play on the turntable below. Now, the distance is 400 meters, which is almost the limit of his own range, so the highest elevation angle is used. .

Next is the adjustment of the angle. In this mortar, there are two angle rulers on the chassis and the middle for fine adjustment. Soon, he completed the preparations.

"Let it go!" he shouted loudly.

The assistant on the side stuffed a 2-inch mortar shell from the muzzle and let it go.

"Bang!" When the shell fell to the bottom, it was fired from below, the gunpowder ignited, and relying on his own power, the shell flew out of the muzzle.

David stared at the cannonball he fired. The first shot was not necessarily accurate. He needed to make corrections by observing the impact point. The second time, it was definitely more accurate than the first one.

"Boom!" Sure enough, the shell exploded a few meters away from the opponent's machine gun, three close positions to the right!

He adjusted nervously, and after that, he felt that his head was hit by something, and his neck seemed to be unable to withstand such a strong impact.

Then, his world was in darkness. Before the darkness, there was no severe pain, only numbness.

"David!" shouted the loader next to him.

A bullet accurately hit David's head, and after the loader finished shouting, he was shot in the same head.

Opposite, there is a sniper!

The people behind did not hesitate, and immediately stepped forward, took over the mortar, and continued operation.

Even if there is a sniper on the opposite side, they also need to fight. Only by defeating the opposite enemy can they have the hope of victory!

"Da da da." Here, the British machine guns also fired violently, suppressing the opposite. It was just an infantry battalion. Your infantry division, pressing up all the troops, can definitely rush past!

No matter how much firepower the opponent has, in short, the opponent's number is limited!

Before the arrival of the German reinforcements, Calais must be resolved, firmly hold here, and create opportunities for the retreat of the expeditionary force!

"Boom!" The mortar continued to fire at the opponent. This time, it accurately hit one of the opponent's machine gun firepower points!

There was a burst of cheers from here, but just two seconds after the cheers, the machine gun on the opposite side began to ring again.

Obviously, at this time, the opponent is also crazy, the machine gunner is dead, the top behind!

The machine gun firepower here is suppressed, and the machine gun on the opposite side continues to fire!

It is unwise to continue charging before suppressing the opponent's machine gun, but now, Montgomery has no other choice, the most precious thing is time!

"Five minutes later, organize the second round of charge!" Montgomery said.

Looking at the team around him, he thought of an idea: "Put our car with a quilt, pour water on it, and rush over!"

It's been ten minutes, and it seems that the opponent doesn't have any heavy firepower. Now, as long as he has a tank, he can rush to it. Unfortunately, there is no one, so he can only think of other ways.

For example, in the current car, you can still make a temporary cameo. He doesn't have steel plates to increase protection, so he has to use soil methods.

Montgomery is quite good at using his brain.

Add water to the quilt, and the bulletproof effect is still possible.

"Yes." A brigade commander next to him immediately went to give orders.

Continue to hold the binoculars, Montgomery once again found a problem, the other party's manpower is insufficient, why should he use his brain on the bridge here? On the nearby canal, you can still think of ways, such as artificial bridges!

The easiest way is to drive the car down and it is the bridge!

Anyway, these cars are probably not available to the UK. Instead of leaving them to the Germans, it is better to use them yourself now!

Can't wait any longer, immediately give orders to organize a new attack! The Germans just set up a defense on the bridge here, and the whole city of Calais is wide!

"Master, teacher, it's not good!" At this moment the adjutant rushed over.

Oh no? What's the bad news? The worst news, I'm afraid that you can't attack the city in time? Isn't he working hard now?

"Master, look at the left, look at our left wing!"

They moved all the way from the right, and now, on their left, on the horizon, a cloud of black smoke appeared.

what is that?

There was some fog in the early morning, and they couldn't see too far, but just by looking at the black smoke, they could guess what.

The black smoke is exhaust gas from the combustion of the engine. Because the opponent is driving brutally, it will continue to emit black smoke. From the scale of the black smoke, the opponent is definitely a powerful force.

Is it yours? The French Army of the South came to rescue? Stop dreaming, it is impossible.

Since it is not a corporation, the Germans must have arrived. The mountains and plains are full of people, certainly not only along the highway, but also traveling at high speed in the wild, which means that it is not just cars, but tanks!

In almost an instant, Montgomery judged that it was German armored troops who came over!

In the repeated battles, the German armored forces were mythological, and they were invincible.

Montgomery knew that any unit was flawed. No matter how powerful the German tanks were, they would blow up their tracks to prevent them from moving forward. They would be able to block the opponents with mines.

Moreover, the military scientific research personnel in the rear must be tirelessly studying solutions. German tanks are not indestructible.

But now, he lacks anti-tank mines and even less time to mine. The Germans are rushing over at high speed. What should I do?

Stay here to resist, waiting for your main force to arrive for reinforcements? still is? Mobile users please browse and read,
