Chapter 70 Familiar Artillery Positions

"Malachi?!Lipu?!"
"Finally found you! Where is Winters? Is the Lieutenant okay?"
"Okay! The lieutenant is now going to the battalion headquarters for a meeting. Hey, where did you go last night? Why did you come here now! You don't know that you didn't find you last night, the lieutenant's sad look..."
Malachi's exaggerated facial expression was interrupted by the kick from behind. Winters still kept his face that was neither happy nor sad, and slowly walked to the front.
"Welcome to return to the team! Come and have a meeting, we have work to do!"
Chen Bin didn't expect that he could save time so much.
As soon as he rushed back from the 82nd Division, he immediately caught up with the action. But after a while, a scene that made Chen Bin even more stunned appeared...
"Someone saw the legendary 88mm cannon, right in the clearings that passed here. Major Sdale asked us to kill them..."
"We know that two guns are opening fire at Utah Beach, and there is also a third and fourth door here..."
Standing next to Winters, looking at the familiar right-angle deployment on the schematic diagram of the German artillery position drawn by the other party. Isn’t this the kind of artillery position I destroyed last night?!
This deployment method is birds of a feather...
"We need to build a fire support point, and then two three-man teams move quickly under cover. We also need to bring some explosives to blow up those cannons. Li Pu, you are responsible for this matter!"
“yes,sir!”
"Machine gun, Chen is back, leave it to Chen. Kill two machine guns, isn't it a problem?"
Listening to Winters's tone, Chen Bin didn't laugh out loud...
I have encountered this in the exercise whether I could knock out two machine guns alone and suppress two machine gun teams. What's more, I did this last night...
"Of course it's no problem!"
"Okay, if that happens, we will have plenty of staff left! Ligaote! Paikandy! Prisch, Handes, Buck, Compton, Malachi, Toy, Grenery...well, we'll be responsible for the main attack!"
As Winters finished assigning the mission, Chen Bin also began to pack up his equipment. However, what made Chen Bin a little confused was that the number of people seemed to be abundant, but not too small...
Not to mention a company, this is probably the same class as the last one...
"Stop looking, eE is only 13 people now, you and Lieutenant Buck."
As if seeing the doubt in Chen Bin's eyes, Winters spoke. Then, his eyes turned to a guy who was eager to try outside the crowd...
"Hull, it's time for you to go back to A Company!"
Well, there is still a guy from A Company?!
Chen Bin turned his head, nodded to the guy who seemed to be at a loss, and turned his head again...
"The situation of the 101 Division is very bad. Not only the e-company, but the a-company. D-company only found less than 20 people... Let's go, do our own things..."
OK, this is really...
Chen Bin followed Winters silently.
Unlike the vigorous momentum of the D company that fought against Captain Banks at night, Winters's e-company looked like a straw troupe made up of big cats and kittens.
However, even such a group of people, when they hear the order, still meticulously and neatly prepare their weapons and equipment. Bring necessary weapons, ammunition, and extra bullets into their backpacks to avoid becoming an extra burden during battle.
While the group was preparing, a new partner was added to the team. The driver of Colonel Sink, the leader of the 506th regiment, Luo Lian!
A group of 14 people brought their equipment and followed the sound of artillery fire toward the artillery position located in the middle of the causeway No. 2 in Utah Beach. Following the wall of the abandoned courtyard by the village, I stepped on the vegetable field that had been ruined. I heard the sound of my ears becoming more and more dull...
Everyone found their goal!
"Hey, this is not an 88mm cannon! This is a 105 howitzer!"
Through the gaps between the shrubs, Chen Bin found that the artillery position in front of him could not be said to be similar to what he encountered at night, but could only be said to be exactly the same...
The same right-angle layout, the same trenches connected, the same mg42 machine gun team cover, and even the artillery looks exactly the same as what I saw last night!
"How do you know?"
When Malaqi, who was beside Chen Bin heard this, immediately asked, even Winters and Li Pu also cast doubtful eyes on Chen Bin.
"The barrel of the 88mm gun is much longer than this, and the length and diameter ratio is different. Besides, I fought this last night... The company commander of the 82nd Division after the war told me..."
When everyone heard it was the company commander of the 82nd Division, they no longer doubted. The reason why the German 88mm anti-aircraft guns is famous is that Rommel used this thing to shoot tanks on the North African battlefield to occupy most of the credit!
The 82nd Division had previously been fighting in Italy, and the Italian army knew everything. The head commander was Rommel who played the 88mm cannon...
The officers and soldiers of the 101st Airborne Division may not recognize the 88mm cannon, but the 82nd Division will definitely not!
"No matter whether it is an 88mm cannon or a 105mm cannon, it's right to knock it out!"
Without even thinking about how Chen Bin got along with the people from the 82nd Division last night, Winters ordered directly.
"Chan, you can find your own position. Priority is given to the machine gun on the right. I asked Buck to take someone to touch him on the left. He was a well-known baseball pitcher before. The bunker on the left is closest to the machine gun position. He can share some pressure with you."
"Malaqi, follow Chen and be that observer for him? Li Pu, be prepared. When we get the first cannon, I want you to come over immediately with TNT!"
"Pakandy, bring the machine gun, Ligaote, you group, go there, firepower interfere and cover us! Do you understand?"
"clear!"
As he finished speaking, everyone quickly dispersed. Chen Bin also took Malaqi to find a suitable sniper point...
The difficulty of the artillery position in front of him was simpler in Chen Bin's eyes than the one he met last night. There was almost no open space here. With the help of the cover of the bushes, everyone could get close to almost seven meters, but it wouldn't work any closer...
The bumpy area is also very suitable for Chen Bin to find a suitable sniper angle. But Lieutenant Buck took people to the left, and Chen Bin could not go there. It was the closest place to the German machine gun position. There was an abandoned truck on the front, and the cab could serve as a natural cover, but it was Winters' territory. He needed to lead people there to create the illusion of a frontal attack to cover Lieutenant Buck's actions...
In this way, the most suitable part for you and the least noticeable thing is the right side! But in this way, you need to take a detour...
"Did you see the hill over there? Malachi!"
