Chapter 589 How Long Can They Hold On (1) [For Iron Egg 1/8]
Xu was two consecutive conditions, and Hu Biao's ones were relatively reasonable and far lower than their psychological expectations, so that Major John felt good for a while.
In passing, he asked again: "Are there any more? Are there any other conditions?"
Of course there is. How can a guy like Hu Biao ever be so polite?
Immediately, he continued to say: "I don't care what you do or what methods you use?
But tell the Allied Forces Command that the big shots in Uncle Sam’s family must return to us the things that belonged to us in the last blocking battle.”
It should be that in the past half day, the British military intelligence department urgently investigated Hu Biao and the Zhongzhou team, which were not worth mentioning at first, but are now very critical.
Therefore, Major John actually knew what had happened to Hu Biao and others, those seemingly normal and dirty things they did.
So after hearing this, Major John smiled bitterly and said:
"Lieutenant Hu, you know, after all, this is an internal matter involving your soldiers. We can only say that we will try our best, but we cannot guarantee a result that you will be satisfied with."
Regarding this same statement, Hu Biao definitely said:
"Believe me, you will do it; it's like as long as our D Company is there, the position and the bridge will always be in our hands."
This is indeed the case. As long as Hu Biao and others show sufficient value, the British military bosses and even members of the royal family will personally come forward to resolve such a matter.
The premise is how long Zhongzhou and the others can hold on to their position and whether they can hold on long enough.
After saying this, Hu Biao yelled at the hundred or so people in D Company who had actually been ready to set off:
"All members of D Company are here. The target position at the south end of the Arnhem Bridge is to change defenses. Now run forward..."
After saying that, he took the lead and started trotting towards the bridge about a kilometer away.
After about ten minutes, all the personnel entered the position at the south end of the bridge guarded by only a hundred or so British paratroopers, and dispersed into various positions in the position.
He just stopped and didn't even catch his breath from running over.
Suddenly hearing some unusual whistling sounds in the air, Hu Biao shouted at the top of his lungs: "Bombardment, large-caliber bombardment, everyone hurry up and get into the bombholes."
While shouting, he also kicked a few D Company recruits around him who didn't react.
I hope that with such a back end, our side will be able to kill fewer people under the bombardment of German 150 mm caliber heavy artillery.
Okay! Such a task that has been urgently adjusted by the system is indeed difficult enough.
Hu Biao and others just arrived at the position, and the German stick on the opposite side used his own way to give a big gift to the Zhongzhou team that had just changed defense.
A saturated artillery attack raged on this position, which was only more than 200 meters long.
Compared with the intensity of subsequent attacks, such violent bombardment was just a small scene...
In the explosion of "Boom, Boom, Boom~", on the small position at the south end of the Arnhem Bridge, it seemed that the whole world was shaking in the violent explosion.
So much so that Major John and others were on the other side of the bridge.
After looking at it from a distance, they all had strong doubts about whether anyone could survive amid such fierce artillery fire.
Of course there are still living people.
Not to mention anything else, Hu Biao and Xu Feng, plus a few soldiers, hid in an anti-cannon hole on the position, silently waiting for such a fierce bombardment.
Not to mention the expressions on the faces of several soldiers, their little faces were as white as paper with fear, and there was a faint smell of urine coming from their crotches.
Xu Feng and Hu Biao were both very calm; the new recruits were afraid of artillery and the veterans were afraid of machine guns. This was clearly revealed at this moment.
In an environment where the ground is shaking strongly and the dust above the head is constantly falling down.
In a short time, Hu Biao, Xu Feng and others who were squeezed in were covered with mud.
At first, Xu Feng still had a freshly lit Camel cigarette in his mouth and was reluctant to throw it away; but in the end, he only took a few puffs in the bomb-proof cave and was filled with a mouthful of mud.
Immediately, Xu Feng spat out "Bah, bah~" in his mouth.
By the way! After being bombarded more than once, veterans like Hu Biao now have rich experience.
Like now, he can deduce a lot of things based on the sound of the cannonball as it flies by, the time gap between the fall, and the movement.
For example, there are now at least 6 150mm howitzers, about 4 75mm field guns, and 5 to 6 80mm mortars facing the position.
Damn it! There are so many artillery guns pointing at the small position here. It can only be said that they think highly of them.
Finally, after almost 10 minutes of indiscriminate bombardment, the artillery fire falling on the position gradually became sparse until it completely stopped.
Before the artillery fire completely stopped, Hu Biao was the first to rush out of the artillery hole.
In less than 10 minutes, the extremely familiar position that had been built by hand was transformed beyond recognition under the ravages of artillery fire.
There are big craters everywhere, and even the soil on the ground has become hot. I don’t know how many people died in this shelling. Are there any members of the Central Continent Team?
The problem is that at this moment, Hu Biao can't care so much.
The first time he did it, he raised the telescope hanging around his neck and looked outside the position amid the smoke and dust that had not yet dissipated.
This is to make sure. Is the German gun going to take the opportunity to launch an attack?
If it is, then let the remaining people prepare to fight immediately; if it is not, then don't say anything and everyone will continue to hide in the bombhole.
In order to avoid being deceived by the German sticks, after attracting the personnel of D Company from the bomb hole, another round of bombing was carried out.
However, just by seeing the faint outlines of the moving tanks in the smoke, Hu Biao knew that the German gunman was not cheating this time, but was actually attacking.
For this reason, his voice began to echo in the position that had just calmed down: "Everyone is ready to fight, and dig up those who are buried."
Under such an order, everyone who had been hiding in the bomb-proof cave rushed out one after another.
Soon after, when most of the smoke and dust on the position dissipated, the current size of the German attack force also appeared in front of Hu Biao's eyes.
After seeing it clearly, Hu Biao took a deep breath.
Good guy! Compared to the current scale, the previous attacks by German sticks were just like appetizers.
Because in his line of sight, he could clearly see three Panthers and five Panzer IV tanks lined up in a line, slowly moving towards the position.
Behind them were infantry of no less than 200 people.
Most of these infantrymen followed the tanks, while a small number were looking for suitable positions everywhere and setting up MG42 general machine guns, preparing to provide fire cover.
Among the above, just 8 tanks can make everyone in the current position numb with little anti-armor firepower.

And at this moment, another piece of bad news came.
"Lao Hu, Fei Falcon and the others are in trouble." After the orthopedic surgeon's words reached his ears, Hu Biao's head started to buzz.
You know, no matter how many of his soldiers or British paratroopers died, Hu Biao had the confidence to persevere.
The greatest confidence is that there are many team members. As long as these people are the backbone, even a group of sheep can defeat a lion.
But the fight hadn't even started yet. The core team member "Flying Falcon" had to be added with "them". Such a statement made Hu Biao's heart freeze.
Looking back, I saw the gray-faced Feifan and Bazi, plus a few British soldiers, lying outside a large pit that had just been dug out. There were no obvious injuries on their bodies.
But a large amount of blood continued to flow from the mouth and nose, and it couldn't be stopped.
Obviously, the shell-proof hole where they had just been sheltered was hit by a 150mm artillery shell and then collapsed. The two of them were directly shocked and seriously injured their internal organs.
