Another half hour later, when Colonel Carney Reeves of the 10th Bavarian Reserve Regiment arrived in the woods, only a mess was left.
Thirty-five corpses were neatly placed on the ground.
The corpse's clothes were messy, and it had obviously been searched. All equipment and valuables, including weapons, had been swept away, especially the M1917-style body armor that had just been equipped with the troops.
There were several pairs of shoes thrown on the ground nearby, but they all seemed to be German army equipment. It was probably because the person who pulled out the shoes was despised, and these pairs of shoes were not taken away.
A little further away, there was a corpse of a German soldier lying on the ground, and there was an almost broken motorcycle next to it. It looked like it had been ambushed.
Clean up the place and get ready to move on. Colonel Kanais Reeves looked gloomy. Looking at the blood-stained corpse, he took off his gloves and fanned in front of his nose. He frowned in disgust, not caring about the gun that had escaped but didn't care.
The mean ghost knew which army he belonged to and was filled with hatred.
Yes, Mr. Colonel. An officer followed the order and called dozens of soldiers to help carry the body.
The body next to the motorcycle was lifted first because that one looked the cleanest.
Even when carrying a corpse, people will habitually look for something cleaner.
despair
Just as the body was lifted up, almost everyone heard the sound of a machine spring touching.
The officer cursed angrily, and just as he was about to sound a warning, he was pushed down hard.
boom
The grenade under the corpse finally exploded, and the four soldiers carrying the corpse hugged their thighs or lower abdomens and wailed. Because the corpse was blocking their upper bodies, their upper bodies were not fatally injured, but the distance was still too close, and their lower bodies had been blown into a hornet's nest.
, a soldier's calf was blown off
God, save me. The wounded soldiers are wailing.
Military medical officer someone is calling for help.
Don't touch those corpses, there are bombs underneath. Someone reminded me.
Everyone moves back, backs off. Someone warns.
As soon as the explosion went off, the originally orderly Germans suddenly fell into chaos. Most of them were looking for bunkers for reporters, some were on guard with guns, and some panicked recruits even fired at the surrounding forest area.
Bah bah bah
Boom boom boom
The appearance of gunshots further aggravated the chaos, and coupled with the sudden explosions, the Germans were even more confused.
It took a long time before the frightened soldiers calmed down under the officer's stern scolding.
In just such a short period of time, the Germans suffered more than a dozen casualties.
These casualties were caused by booby traps triggered by soldiers seeking cover.
As if they could foresee all this, those booby traps were set behind stones on the roadside, at the bottom of bomb craters, and even in the woods. When the panicked German soldiers went to those places to find bunkers, various booby traps would be fired.
, causing more serious casualties.
Bastards, these bastards. Kanai Reeves looked at the chaotic soldiers and cursed. He didn't know whether he was scolding the group of enemy soldiers who had not seen their shadows yet, or scolding his own soldiers who had behaved too unsightly.
.
What a pity, boss, you said that if we rush over and fight for a while now, it's a pity how many scouts lurking in the dark can be killed.
Don't even think about it. There are already more than a thousand fucking people here. One of them can drown four of us just by spitting. Liu Shuangxi remained calm.
In the battle just now, Liu Shuangxi and the others wiped out all 35 German soldiers, and only two of them were injured. Now the injured have been sent to the rear on motorcycles, and only the four of them are left here to monitor.
Colonel, this way. Carney Reeves heard someone calling him, so he went over.
Be careful, Colonel, look here. A sergeant major is lying under a big tree.
There was a simple firing device in front of the sergeant. A lead that seemed to be only as thick as a human hair was connected to a grenade covered with branches and leaves. If someone passed by and accidentally tripped over the lead, the lead would pull.
A branch that has been stretched into a bow shape, and another section of the branch is connected to the ring of the grenade, and the grenade will be fired.
This man is very insidious and cunning, and has rich combat experience. I think we have met our opponent. The sergeant major carefully removed the grenade, confirmed that there were no other traps, and gently picked up the grenade.
This is an M24 wooden handle grenade equipped by the German army. Needless to say, this is the equipment of those German soldiers who died in the battle. It has been modified into a trap. The sergeant major turned his head and looked around the forest area in front of him. He did not dare to go in because he could not
It is certain how many such traps there are in the woods, maybe there are many, maybe there are none, but in any case, there is no way to prove it with life.
Maybe it wasn't this person, but a group of people. The sergeant major looked ugly.
To become a sergeant major, one must have served in the military for at least ten years. As a veteran, the sergeant major suddenly had a very bad feeling in his heart.
Continue to send scouts forward to conduct reconnaissance, and gather the group to follow. Kanai Reeves is decisive.
The reconnaissance force encountered the enemy and was completely wiped out. The opponent's losses were very few. This result was unacceptable to Kanai Reeves. The 10th Bavarian Reserve Regiment was the supplementary force of the 17th Bavarian Division; the 17th Bavarian Division was also
It is the vanguard of the Seventh Army, so the 10th Bavarian Reserve Regiment is equivalent to the vanguard of the Seventh Army. The reconnaissance mission should originally be undertaken by this unit.
The number of scouts must be increased, at least in company units. The sergeant major made suggestions.
It is the sergeant major's duty to make his own suggestions to the officers, and usually, the officers will follow the sergeant major's suggestions.
The same goes for Carney Reeves. After the sergeant major made a suggestion, the scouts dispatched by the 10th Bavarian Reserve Regiment were based on companies.
Increasing the number of reconnaissance troops was very effective. Shortly after the first reconnaissance troops set off, there was a sudden earth-shattering explosion in front of them, and dozens more German troops fell immediately in the German search front.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of a motorcycle engine was heard rumbling away. Carney Reeves took two steps and jumped onto a stone on the side of the road, picked up a telescope and looked around, only to see dust in the sky in the distance.
This time the explosion was more serious. About 20 people were killed on the spot and more than 30 people were injured.
Seeing the injured in front of him, Kanai Reeves felt heart palpitations.
The wounded were covered with small wounds the size of soybeans, as dense as a colander in the kitchen; and all exposed wounds were filled with blood, like a showerhead for watering flowers.
If there is no need for rescue this time, there is no way to save him. In a minute at most, the injured person will bleed to death. If you have this time, it would be better to call the priest to come over and pray.
After seeing the location of the explosion, Kanai Reeves was even more frightened.
This explosion point is almost a directional blasting device, with a fan-shaped launch port aimed at the entire road. If I had been careless just now and marched directly in line, then when this bomb exploded
Kanai Levis shook his head, not daring to continue thinking about it.
