Chapter 32 Negative

All the adventurers gathered around Chen Yi.

King Kong asked Chen Yi: "What's wrong again?"

Chen Yi pointed to the bloody emblem: "Look at this, how much time is left on it?"

King Kong looked down and replied: "Nine days and ten hours."

Chen Yi snapped his fingers: "It's ten o'clock in the evening now. We landed at 8 o'clock last night and completed the task at 12 o'clock in the evening. Then the optional task can be started eight hours in advance. Therefore, the official task start time is 8 o'clock this morning. I'm right?"

"So what?" Everyone didn't understand.

"That is, the process of seizing the bridge is also calculated in the task time. In other words, our optional task is not to hold the bridge for ten days, but to include two processes: snatching and sticking to the bridge. These two processes are a total of ten days. As for how to allocate it, it is not a matter of concern to the city. It only requires that the bridge be under our full control ten days later. In other words, we can choose to take down the bridge and stick to it for ten days today, or we can choose to play for a few days before taking down the bridge. Am I right that?"

The other adventurers looked at each other, and no one understood what Chen Yi meant.

This time, even King Kong was a little confused: "Is there any difference between taking the bridge today and taking the bridge a few days later?"

"Yes!" Chen Yi replied seriously: "And there are very important differences."

He looked at everyone: "The difference is that the sooner we took the bridge, the sooner we would face the reinforcements and counterattacks from the Germans! I think you all should understand that the longer the enemy is given, the more pressure we will be to guard the bridge."

As soon as he finished speaking, a shell made a sharp roar and landed at Chen Yi and his team's meeting point and exploded.

Everyone was lying on the ground collectively, Honglang shouted loudly, pointing to the crater in the distance: "Look at that, do you think our survival pressure is very small now?"

"Compared with the pouring of ten shells per second, the current situation is just a child's house game!" Chen Yi shouted and turned around, and the spirit musket shot out a shuttle and killed a German soldier.

Chen Yi's meaning is simple and clear.

Once the Arnhem Bridge is captured by adventurers, the Germans will launch a crazy counterattack and grab the bridge. Reinforcements will come one after another, and aircraft, cannons and tanks will bomb Arnhem in turn. The longer the time is, the more German soldiers will be on the counterattack on the bridge, and the more difficult it will be.

This optional mission in Bloody City seems to be quite relaxed on the surface, but there is a fatal trap hidden behind it. Once adventurers launch attacks desperately after coming to the bridge and take down the bridge with a lot of consumption, what they have to face will be the endless crazy attacks of the Germans for ten days.

In contrast, the current situation is much better.

Under the joint control of the British and Germans, the Arnhem Bridge does not have to rush to call for reinforcements as long as the Germans are not driven away from the bridge for a day. The pressure faced by adventurers will not be so heavy.

So this time period is actually the easiest time period for adventurers.

When Chen Yi talked about this situation, everyone finally understood what he meant and admired this guy's careful thinking.

Faced with the German artillery fire, King Kong asked loudly: "Then what you mean is that we are going to drag the task of taking down the bridge back and extend the safety period?"

He took the word "safety deadline" very seriously, and it was obvious that he did not think that the current situation was a security situation.

But Chen Yi nodded seriously.

"Are you sure the German reinforcements must be something we can't bear?" Hong Lang shouted, the German bullets were erupting wildly, and he couldn't even lift his head.

Chen Yi lay on the ground and spread out the map: "Look, the Germans stationed heavy troops in the Anheng area, with two SS armored divisions, which were Hitler's elite troops, large Tiger tanks, and there was an airport in that area. I don't know how many planes there are, but I can be sure that the number will not be too small. Currently, at the Arnhem Bridge, there is only a small part of the Anheng heavy troops. The other troops are either used to encircle and annihilate the main force of the First Airborne Force, or to defend other places. Among them, the nearest unit to Arnhem will only take four hours to reach the Arnhem Bridge at the fastest speed. The farthest unit, It only takes twelve hours to arrive. They did not come to fight us now because they did not need to send more troops to deal with a small force. But if the bridge was taken down by us, they would be in a hurry... In other words, from the moment we officially control the situation, the Germans will know the news, and what awaits us will be the Germans' crazy counterattack after wave. According to the principle that the attacking party's strength is stronger than the wave, we may eventually face a full attack of hundreds of tanks from the armored division! Our optional mission is not robbery but defense!"

Everyone was stunned by this passage.

Hong Lang murmured: "No wonder this mission was rewarded to the team. Damn, the relationship is so dangerous, this is a hidden trap."

"That's right." King Kong also nodded: "I just said that this mission cannot be that simple."

This mission in Bloody City is indeed a trap, and it is a very flexible trap. It completely takes into account the strength of the adventurers. If the adventurers are strong, they are likely to take the bridge on the first day and face a full ten days of counterattack power. If the adventurers are not strong enough, they may have to drag for a few days to take the bridge, and the result is that the counterattack power will be slightly weakened.

But if someone can discover this trap, he can cleverly control the time of snatching the bridge, thereby reducing the difficulty. The city obviously accepts this kind of opportunistic behavior. Perhaps in the eyes of the bloody city, wisdom is also part of its strength.

"When is it better to start grabbing the bridge?" asked an adventurer.

"Of course, the later the better, but the problem is..." Chen Yi looked at the honest and confident battalion commander Frost, and then said helplessly: "Will he accept it?"

Yes, will Frost accept it?

In the order he received, the Arnhem Bridge was not only to be taken, but the sooner it was taken, the better. Because Montgomery was full of confidence and firmly believed that his troops would be able to quickly come to this area through the area guarded by the German army in a short period of time, thereby completing the feat of crossing the Rhine.

Whether Frost himself believed in Montgomery or not, as an excellent officer, he could only abide and execute the orders of his superiors unconditionally.

So no matter what Chen Yi said, he would not accept the temporary stop of attacking the bridge.

What's more, there are bloody cities that are secretly affecting everything.

This is exactly what makes Chen Yi feel helpless. He can see the problem, but he cannot solve the problem. Because the bloody city allows him to take advantage of things, but he cannot allow him to rely on tricks to pass the test.

Everyone was a little panicked now. Once the bridge was taken tonight, they would definitely face a crazy counterattack from the German armored division in the next nine days. Can their ammunition supply be supported for such a long time?

Even if their weapons are advanced, none of them have infinite ammunition except Chen Yi. Even if they have ballistics props, how many waves of enemy bullets can they block? Even if they have the ability to strengthen, what role can they play in the years of bombs being like rain and artillery fire?

Honglang swallowed with difficulty: "You have to try it, right?"

Xiji looked at Chen Yi with a look of eyes, and Chen Yi sighed.

He walked towards Frost.

Soon, Chen Yi and Frost had a fierce argument. Not long after, Chen Yi came back with a gloomy face.

"He refused to suspend the robbery of the bridge, nor did he believe that the Allies would not be able to come within ten days. Damn it, I can't tell him how many German troops An Heng has. He still thinks that the strength of this area is no more than one infantry regiment."

"I just knew it was like this." King Kong was not surprised at all.

"What should we do now?" Wenrou asked Chen Yi.

Chen Yi stared at the German fortifications on the south bank of the Rhine River for a long time before finally saying: "Drag... delay time as much as possible. From now on, don't use your weapons to attack the German army anymore. Take off all the ballistic props, change into the bulletproof vest, and I will treat him if I am injured, and try to save some resources."

"How long can it be delayed?"

"Drag as long as you can!" Chen Yi said firmly.

In the following time, the Adventurers team fell into a collective "down" period. They did not show the courage of the first day. However, perhaps because everyone performed too well on the first day, the German soldiers were already scared and paralyzed, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced, so that the 2nd Airborne Battalion was still in the upper hand in the battle.

Every time the adventurers saw the British paratroopers pushing forward a little, they felt a little uncomfortable, and they wanted to pull their ears and shout, "Don't rush so fast, I have to stay with you for ten days."

But in the end, I could only keep this in my heart, while the British paratroopers' offensive steps were moving forward steadily, advancing every hour.

In fact, if the bridge is not taken down immediately, the Germans' attack will not be too fierce, but when they are really on the battlefield, watching the shells flying all over the sky and the fires running around, the whole world is like hell, and you will feel that nothing is worse than now.

It is good for adventurers to be able to control themselves in this environment. And when it comes to controlling the rhythm of the entire battle, they can only try their best not to work hard and slow down the pace of victory in the battle.

Fortunately, the Germans' final desperate resistance was indeed difficult to deal with. After a night of fierce battle, they finally blocked the attack of the 2nd Airborne Battalion.

Frost was naturally dissatisfied with this, but the adventurers were all using the excuse of fighting fatigue and being unable to activate special abilities and needed time to rest, which made Frost helpless.

Successfully delayed for a night, and the adventurers continued to passively slacken the next day.

This time, their slacking off level was even more outrageous, so they just played the trick of getting sick one by one, with more excuses than the authors who had a break from the starting point. There were many intestinal pain, stomach pain, and head pain, while Chen Yi spread his hands together, claiming that this was the result of excessive activation of special abilities, and his special abilities only cure injuries but not diseases.

Frost could only stare at the adventurers' behavior but couldn't speak. When he returned to the phone, he called again: "Air support is needed! Air support is needed!" He was reluctant to mention the special operations team.

However, no matter how the adventurers delayed, the balance of victory had begun to tilt towards the British paratroopers and would no longer shift with people's will. Moreover, adventurers could not do anything, and Chen Yi could not help but work. He could not watch the soldiers of the 2nd Airborne Battalion die, and those who should be saved were saved. Emotionally, they were comrades-in-arms, and in terms of interests, they were both bloody points and combat power. It would be good to be able to save one more.

The reduction in combat effectiveness and casualties made the soldiers of the 2nd Airborne Battalion more brave to fight. They were originally elites and their combat effectiveness was stronger.

The adventurers never hated their allies as strong as they are now.

The battle lasted for a day, and the German soldiers retreated in a tide. When the war broke out to noon on the third day, the 2nd Airborne Battalion had completely controlled the entire bridge deck. However, when it was about to reach the bridge head, they were waiting for a bunker made of steel and concrete, and there was an armored vehicle next to it.

There was originally one such bunker in the northern section of the bridge, and Frost took it with his life, but this time he faced another bunker, he didn't want to do this anymore.

He hugged his waist and ran to Chen Yi and shouted: "My friend, have you seen that bunker? I need your weapon that can fight tanks, help me blow it off!"

Chen Yi replied: "I'm sorry I can't agree to your request."

"Why?"

"Because there is not much ammunition, I have to save some money." Chen Yi replied.

"What does that matter? As long as you take down the bunker, the bridge will belong to us! Then, as long as you clear the remnants on the opposite side, you only need to wait until the main force arrives." Frost shouted. He couldn't understand why Chen Yi was so opposed to taking down the bridge, so he did not hesitate to make those small moves in secret.

Did he think he couldn't see it?

"I'm sorry I don't think so." Chen Yi replied. Frost would never believe that Montgomery's ground main force had never reached Arnhem from beginning to end. In other words, the 2nd Airborne Battalion could never wait for their main force.

Frost said to Chen Yi very seriously: "I know you still want me to delay taking the bridge, but my friend, as a soldier, is our duty to execute orders, and it is our glory to die on the battlefield. We are not afraid of the strength of the enemy, nor are we afraid of possible deaths. No matter what obstacles are blocking our way forward, we will muster up the courage to smash it!"

"Do you know how many soldiers have died in the past two days? More than forty. They wouldn't have had to die so many, if you and your partners were willing to take action. But they had no complaints, because it was our duty to kill the enemy, or be killed by the enemy."

As he said that, Frost pointed to the bunker in the distance: "Now, I can let my people go to force the bunker. I can be sure that I can take it down, but many people will definitely die. You can't stop my attack, but you can make my warriors die less. I look forward to your decision."

Frost's words are sincere, serious and persistent.

Chen Yi stared at Frost in a daze. At that moment, he could see the firm determination in the eyes of the lieutenant colonel battalion commander.

This is a real warrior!

A soldier who loves soldiers and is loyal to his duties.

He would never have been able to continue to delay like this.

After thinking about it, Chen Yi said, "My partner and I are already very tired. We have almost never had a rest until now. We need sleep."

"Get that bunker and you can get what you want. Then you can sleep whatever you want."

"I'm afraid that we won't have time to sleep by then. Frost, give me another day, and tomorrow I promise to take down the bunker for you. This is the final condition!" Chen Yi said firmly: "Just one day!"

Frost looked at Chen Yi deeply, and he finally nodded: "Okay, I agree with your conditions. But tomorrow you must and your partners help us take down the bunker."

After a successful day, Chen Yi let out a long breath and ordered in a deep voice: "Everyone will stop fire and sleep on the spot!"

Although the soldiers of the 2nd Airborne Battalion were unknown why they gave up the attack when victory was about to come, everyone still followed this order.

Chen Yi let out a long sigh. He did not expect that after he had command of the 2nd Airborne Battalion, the first order would be to let everyone sleep.

The fourth day, early morning.

Chen Yi called the adventurer with flashing boots, whispered to him, called a few more airborne soldiers, and then pointed to the bunker in front of him. The soldiers and adventurers immediately understood.

A moment later, several airborne battalions soldiers hugged from the front of the bridge to attract the attention of the German army. Flames spewed out of the bunker, and the only remaining armored vehicle in the German army also roared ruthlessly. The rain of bullets sprinkled at the uncovered soldiers. Several soldiers reacted quickly, lying down at the same time, rolling their bodies back to the fortifications. At the same time, the adventurer's leap boot skill was activated, and it teleported to the top of the bunker. The hand-wire flamethrower in his hand rolled out a fire dragon and rolled over to the bunker. The terrified screams of German soldiers came from the bunker.

At the same time, he pulled out a grenade and stuffed it into the armored vehicle next to him. With a bombing explosion, the armored vehicle and the bunker were silenced at the same time.

Several German soldiers with hands behind their heads came out of the bunker, and the soldiers from the 2nd Airborne Battalion rushed forward and shot them to death.

The last fortress, which should have consumed at least dozens of lives, was easily conquered by them.

Chen Yi said to Frost: "Congratulations, Lieutenant Colonel, the bridge has been fully captured."

But there was no smugness on his face.
