Under the escort of the division's guard company and the escort of elite guard soldiers, Otto Baum walked forward in the heavy rain and arrived at a position where the battle had just happened.

It adds up, but it’s only a kilometer away.

But he walked for a total of 20 minutes, and his body, which was originally straight and handsome, SS uniform was completely wet by the rainwater.

Even in this process, the responsible guard company commander under his command was still supporting an umbrella above his head.

Even so, his body was still wet, and his beautiful boots were all muddy.

But after arriving at the latest battlefield, he saw the tragic situation of a small but extremely fierce post-war situation. The acting commander didn't care about the little things that the clothes were soaked.

This is at a crossroads, and the only commanding height is a hill about 10 meters high.

While Otto Baum was walking silently, at this intersection, he saw some shocking situations in his heart.

A leopard tank weighing 44.8 tons was directly overturned in the center of the intersection, next to a huge bomb crater.

A group of five people in the tank team was dragged out from the escape door at the bottom of the tank, and three people were directly shocked to death...

Now he is placed on the side of the road by the rescuers, and he is covered with a ragged raincoat, so he looks indescribable and shocking at this moment.

(I wrote that a Leopard tank weighs only more than 20 tons, so I will correct it here.)

With Otto Baum's rich combat experience, you can see a lot of things by just taking a look at the details on the battlefield.

For example, from the depth and range of the crater, we basically know that the other party should have converted the 150mm caliber shell into a landmine.

They have done a lot of such things before on the Eastern Front battlefield, which has used such tactics to harm a considerable number of Russian T-34 tanks.

Even the KV-2, this heavy tank of the Russian family.

Unexpectedly, they used such a tactic very well at that time, but now they fell on their heads, but they were so depressed.

The reason is simple. As the Allies continue to intensify their strategic bombing of the local area, many arsenals were blown up during the bombing.

Tiger and Leopard tanks, such well-made equipment, are becoming increasingly difficult to supplement.

It can be said that the No. 4 tank is better, but the losses of each Tiger and Leopard tank will make such German stick officers at the level of division feel distressed.

And next to the leopard tank with tracks facing the sky, not far from the distance, the No. 4 tank was left with only a charred wreckage.

Around these two tanks, at least 20 infantrymen fell down.

So much so that under the erosion of rain, the numerous waters on the ground at this intersection were now filled with obvious blood red.

The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and even the heavy rain could not be washed away.

Based on the above reasons, the German soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield seemed very emotionally depressed.

Overall, the expressions on their faces.

In addition to the tired look caused by the long-term marching under heavy rain, there is also a fear that cannot be hidden; under Otto Baum's keen observation, we can also see these people constantly looking at the night on the roadside from time to time.

I seemed worried that at some point, there would be a deadly bullet that would greet them.

As for the culprits that caused all this, most of them are now missing.

The only person who stayed behind was a knife that was still tightly clutching a broken blade in his hand after he died in battle, which was specifically the kind used by a chef to pick bones with a stick.

Because this guy who is already dead has a great possibility, he should still be a chef.

The reason why this guy who was suspected of a chef would stay among the attackers is that he would stay.

The biggest reason was that when the Metropolitan Armored Division was ambushing, his left leg was directly shot into two pieces by machine gun bullets at his knee.

After losing the ability to move, his Chinese comrades were unable to take him to evacuate quickly because of the arrival of a large number of people on his side.

In the end, he could only stay here helplessly.

However, if we follow Western traditions, in such a desperate situation, the bravest warriors would choose to surrender decisively.

In exchange for a chance to be treated with decent and to survive after treatment.

But God knows! What are the thoughts in their minds and structures? It seems that surrendering and being captured for granted is the greatest humiliation in their lives.

Judging from the bullet shells scattered on the ground, the chef who never surrendered should have exhausted the bullets of the M3 submachine gun in his hand first.

Then, facing the approaching German stick soldiers, they wiped out all the M911 pistol magazines as auxiliary weapons.

Finally, he even used this sharp knife to engage in a short and fierce hand-to-hand fight.

During this period, the outrageously powerful chef was shot at least seven or eight times, and there were more bayonets and butt stocks, and the damage of engineer shovels.

The above, the dense wounds on his body are the best proof...

Silently, he saw the traces of the battle after the battle, and after a complete circle, Otto Baum sighed.

He knew that the small number of blocking troops caused them far more trouble than they thought.

In case the troubles of these people caused the 17th Armored Division of the SS Guard to arrive outside Cherbourg Port in time before more reinforcements arrived and launched an attack.

Then the performance of the entire 17th Armored Division of the SAR in the Normandy region will become a big joke.

After lowering his head and pondering for a minute or two, based on his admiration for these brave Chinese opponents, although he had no effect on the guard company commander behind him, he had been trying hard to hold up an umbrella for him.

With a somewhat sighing expression, I explained this:

"Okay! We have to admit that this Chinese warrior is another warrior, a warrior worthy of our admiration, just like the two colleagues he died in battle before.

Send a bucket cart to load his body and bury his body with his two previous comrades. He deserves such treatment."

The guard company commander with blonde hair and handsome facial features nodded quickly after hearing this.

It is not enough to say it! These officers of the SS Guard who were devoted to the head of state have indeed done many infamous things because of their wrong values.

But at least one thing is that they can still give the most basic decency to admirable opponents.

In the following time, people would naturally transport this powerful chef, Qingtian's body, to the rear for more than 10 kilometers, buried next to Zhuifeng and the python.

Of course, there is also the one that is easy to put on the armed belt, just a half-piece of ordinary items.

Seeing that his acting teacher, Lord Otto Baum, finally spoke, don’t worry about the questions he raised, which would interrupt the other party’s thinking.

生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生�

A major in charge of commanding the vanguard finally plucked up his courage to speak to Otto Baum, and asked for instructions in a weak tone:

“General Otto Baum, please allow me to make some suggestions.

In such a bad weather, the warriors were originally a huge physical and mental test, not to mention that they had to fight with these harassers continuously.

The day has passed since we set out in the morning, and now the soldiers under us are all exhausted.

How about we stop tonight and have a good rest for the night, and wait until early tomorrow morning to rush forward? Maybe the rain will stop tomorrow morning, and we can make up for the delayed time."

"No, Hankson! The more these Chinese soldiers try harder to block us, the more they mean there is something wrong with this.

It even shows that the Allied leaders became nervous after discovering our whereabouts, and while desperately mobilizing their troops to march towards Cherbourg.

On the one hand, we issued a death order, allowing these Chinese soldiers to fight to the death at all costs to slow down our advance; then whoever arrives faster may be destined to be the victory of the offensive and defensive battle in the Port of Cherbourg, or even the Normandy war.

So, not only can we not rest tonight, but we must also speed up our pace as much as possible.

As for hard work, this kind of thing is actually relative; since these Orientals can tolerate such high-intensity combat, I believe that the outstanding young people of the Japanese-Armanian nation will be able to persevere as well."

After hearing this, the major, known as Hankson, nodded extremely solemnly, but he still asked a key question:

"Okay General, the SS Guards, will not disappoint the great head of state.

But the soldiers may not be afraid of death, but what should they do when facing the elusive Chinese soldiers attackers like rats in the sewer, and the various mines they buried?

In the previous 4 hours, we only advanced about 5 kilometers.

According to information, there are 25 kilometers of bad roads that are almost the same. Only by crossing the hill of one of our artillery positions in the past can the road conditions be better.

In order to advance this 5 kilometers, even if the equipment that can be repaired quickly after the track is blown up is not counted.

So far, we have lost 2 Tiger tanks, 4 No. 4 tanks, and 3 armored vehicles.

In addition, compared with the losses in equipment, the personnel damage is more terrifying; according to statistics, we died in battle and 162 casualties.

Most of these injured people were penetrated by a kind of damaged bullet thunder; although such injuries were not fatal, they would have a great blow to morale.

Now, if the soldiers in the vanguard don’t see the footprints on the ground, they are a little afraid to walk; similarly, sitting on the tank and advancing is also very unsafe."

After hearing the above data, Otto Baum couldn't help but take a breath in his mouth.

In fact, this was the first time that Otto Baum had clearly understood that under the blocking tactics of the Central China Team, they had caused such great casualties.

In the past, he always thought that his opponent's harassment tactics of burying simple landmines and shooting a shuttle bullets were just a disgusting person.

However, the overall casualties caused to them were about a hundred people.

The result? Not to mention the losses of the 9 armored equipment, the infantry troops alone have already lost 260 people.

Although the number of infantry in their troops is far more than the estimated 1,200 people by AT, the total number actually reaches 1,893 people.

But such a consumption speed still sounds very scary.

Damn it! If this situation really develops, it is no longer the 17th Armored Division of the SS Guard. Can it arrive at Cherbourg Port on time and then launch an attack on the flanks of the soldiers.

Instead, after arriving at Cherbourg Port, they still had the problem of whether they had enough strength to launch an attack due to huge losses.

A powerful SSU armored division, even if it is just a remnant of an armored division.
To be continued...
