Adrian led his team of 5 people and jumped into the trench in front of him. Apart from the corpses of several Belgians with their faces covered in blood, it seemed that only these 5 German soldiers were still alive in the trench.
Suddenly, Adrian found a Belgian soldier covered in blood twitching. He must have been a wounded soldier who was affected by the explosion but had no life left.
"Bang! Baht! Baht!" Adrian fired a hail of bullets at the Belgian soldier without hesitation, ending his life.
After all, Adrian and the others are also airborne troops that go deep behind enemy lines. Unless they completely occupy the target position, they have no way to keep prisoners. Because there is really no extra manpower to guard the prisoners.
This is war. For those who will drag down one's side, even if they have lost their combat effectiveness, sometimes they cannot be taken as prisoners due to special reasons. To put it nicely, it is to give them a relief, to put it ugly, that is
Erase the lives of these people.
"Squad leader?" A soldier asked Adrian, who was looking at the corpse of the Belgian soldier in a daze, "What's the matter? Is there something wrong?"
After probably being stunned for a few seconds, Adrian quickly came to his senses, waved his hand and said, "Nothing, let's go."
Capturing a machine gun position does not mean that Adrian and the others have completed their mission. Only by completely capturing the Belgian position behind the target bridge can they achieve their goal. Therefore, Adrian and the others must continue to move forward.
"Squad leader! Have you done it over there?" Soon, Adrian's squad deputy Luke also joined them: "It seems that you have done it. Of course, we have done it over there. Adding both sides together, we
It must have taken away the positions of two Belgian platoons."
"It should be like this," Adrian nodded and thought, "Looking at the location distribution, the Belgians should have arranged an inverted triangle position group. They set up a blocking position behind the bridge, and then behind the blocking position
Two deep second-line positions were left."
Because they were airborne directly behind the enemy, Adrian and the others directly bypassed the Belgian army's first line of position and appeared behind the second line of position, disrupting the Belgian army's defensive deployment arrangements. Now, they are about to continue to advance towards the enemy.
The Belgian troops placed on the front line launched an attack.
"The Belgian defenders left behind the bridge are about one company." Adrian speculated based on the density of Belgian military firepower observed during the landing: "They left two platoons behind, so their company headquarters
The remaining platoon should be on the remaining position."
Adrian pointed to a machine gun abandoned by a Belgian deserter on the position he had just captured: "Send a few people to bring this machine gun with you. It should be used in the next attack. This is the last time of this airborne operation."
It is also the most important attack, and we must use our strongest strength."
After discussing for a while, Adrian and his party met up with their platoon leader. The platoon leader brought 12 more soldiers than before. This was another squad that had just arrived at the front line.
The next nine members were all equipped. They had 4 G43 semi-automatic rifles, 2 MP40 submachine guns, and 6 combat pistols. With their joining, the next battle will be more confident.
"Adrian!" the platoon leader loudly arranged: "You should take your previous group and attack secretly along the path on the left. The remaining people will join me and attack from the right wing."
After getting the mission, Adrian didn't waste any time. He took Luke and nine other people and set off along a small road. Because there were fewer people, they left the captured machine gun with the platoon leader and moved forward lightly. And the firepower
Being relatively weak, they do not have to take on the task of storming. They only need to attack secretly from the other side when the platoon leader leads a large force to attack.
"Boom!" An hour later, a grenade was fired from the 40mm grenade in the platoon leader's hand. The captured Belgian army's Maxim heavy machine gun and the German army's own mg42 general-purpose machine gun also released firepower.
The Belgian troops in the position behind the bridge panicked when faced with the sudden attack from the right wing. They had seen hundreds of parachutes being dropped behind them before, and knew that these were German paratroopers attacking.
However, because the German paratroopers chose to airdrop in the early morning, the visibility was poor, and the air point was a certain distance from the Belgian position, the Belgian garrison on the position mistakenly regarded all parachutes as having a German soldier.
, thereby exaggerating the size of the German air force.
In fact, many airdropped parachutes were attached with supply boxes and bags, not German soldiers. But I didn’t know the paratroopers, and I didn’t know that the Belgian army was accustomed to separating people’s supplies when the Germans airdropped, so they foolishly guessed that a parachute represented
A German soldier.
Because of their ignorance, they mistakenly magnified the enemy many times. And this second-rate Belgian army force, which originally belonged to the Belgian 13th Division, had no courage to compete with the German army.
When the sudden firing sound of the Maxim heavy machine gun and the harsh noise of mg42 tearing linen could be heard from the right wing of the position, the company headquarters of the Belgian defenders of the bridge quickly panicked.
In panic, the company commander of the Belgian garrison sent all his personnel to the right wing to resist without even thinking. In his opinion, if he did not do this, there would be no hope of blocking the wolf-like German offensive. After all, the German army
Appearing here means that they have completely defeated the two second-line positions in the rear.
It is certainly not easy for this German paratrooper unit to take down two positions in a row, each with a platoon stationed there. Even if they go all out, they may not be able to stop it, let alone leave any backup. Unfortunately, it is this kind of thinking that makes
The Belgian company commander ignored the safety of the left wing and used all his strength to deal with the unknown German forces on the right.
"Squad leader, is there no one there?!" Luke looked at Adrian with a puzzled look.
They sneaked along the path to the left wing of the position behind the bridge without being discovered along the way. When they arrived at their destination, only five Belgian soldiers appeared in front of them, leaning on the sandbags and chatting. And these five were lax.
The soldiers are all the Belgian troops on the left wing.
Five soldiers, what's the difference from no one?! In Adrian's opinion, these Belgians simply don't know how to fight. Even if he, a German non-commissioned officer, were to command the battle, he would definitely not just let them go.
5 men guarding such an important flank!
"It seems that the Belgians think that if our people appear on the right, they will not appear on the left." Adrian chuckled jokingly: "Their commander is simply a simple-minded idiot. Such a person can actually
Even though we were able to sneak into the position of commander, I finally understand why the Belgians were beaten so badly by us all the way."
If it weren't for the sneak attack on these five unlucky Belgians later, Adrian would have wanted to laugh loudly right now, laughing at the enemy's stupidity and congratulating himself on his good luck.
"Let's go!" Adrian raised the MP40 submachine gun in his hand and said in a low voice: "Let's go teach the Belgian soldiers a lesson and teach them that they must fight without thinking."
