Chapter 331 The Battle of the Bridge (Part 1)

The artillery sergeant stared blankly at the things in his hand.

It was a map, but it wasn't a military map in the usual sense. It was a map of the town's buildings. It even marked where it was bombed, and that area could accommodate tanks.

"Where did you get this map?"

Lin Yue said, "I drew it myself."

Artillery sergeant said: "The drawing skills are really good."

Lin Yue said, "Thank you."

"Then how do you know the layout of the town?"

"Because I passed by here when I was evacuating from Omaha Beach, and I slept in the building under the tower. If there were no fierce firefights in the town in the past two days, the terrain should not change much."

The artillery sergeant was lost in thought.

"With the power of the 80mm mortar, if it is placed on the edge of the town, it is enough to bomb the US troops in the central block in a curve, and it will have a very good support effect on our army." Lin Yue pointed to the edge of the map and said.

The artillery sergeant said, "Did you make a mistake? The location you chose is in the center of the building, and the US firepower point is not marked at all. What should I do if blind fire causes accidental injury?"

Lin Yue clicked on the building next to it: "This is a small three-story building, only a little shorter than the tower in the center of the town, and it is in the blind spot of the enemy's snipers. You can send a person up to guide the bombing."

What a joke, a thing like a mortar may miss shooting even in a place with a wide field of vision, let alone a guided bombing with a person in the middle.

Lin Yue said, "Do you still remember our game?"

The artillery sergeant thought of how he tried to humiliate Lin Yue before, but was slapped in the face by him instead.

"I can be the one who directs the mortars to hit the target, I think you should understand sign language."

The artillery sergeant hesitated when he heard the words. Judging from Lin Yue's previous performance, he did have the qualifications.

"Hurry up and make a decision. Major Frederick's task for you is to adapt to the situation. I know this is for my safety. I don't want to send the mortar team to the front line when the situation is unclear, and there are destroyers in the team. There are also tanks, it is basically impossible for you to gain military exploits, and you must seize this opportunity if you want to get rewards." Lin Yue urged: "The major's order is to adapt to the situation, and adapting to the situation also includes taking the initiative to attack. Who said that the mortar team must stay Behind the ranks? So this is not considered a disobedience to military orders, and if the major asks whose idea it was afterward, you can say that I forced you to do this, because I want to avenge Major Ishida."

Hearing what he said, the artillery sergeant no longer hesitated, nodded and said, "Okay."

Just like what Lin Yue said, the effectiveness of mortars is greatly weakened in units with tanks and destroyers. Under normal circumstances, it is absolutely impossible for them to obtain enviable military exploits in this battle. Now Lin Yue Yue pointed out a clear path for him. If he managed to get the Iron Cross, he might not lose much. After all, they were outside the battlefield and there was no great danger.

...

When Lin Yue led the mortar team past the flanking cats, the battle in the central block fell into a frenzy.

The lieutenant’s Tiger tank had been blown off the tracks by Captain Miller’s sticky TNT, turning it into a crippled mass of steel. The Weasel III destroyer behind it didn’t notice the invisible American soldiers on the roof of the side building, acting as a Molotov cocktail When they landed in the cockpit, the three of them were surrounded by flames and kept screaming.

Tiger tanks can't move, but they can still fire.

There was only a bang.

The houses on the opposite side were devastated by the explosion.

Captain Miller took the opportunity to run to the front of the Tiger tank, put the gun into the observation port, and fired at the people inside.

The Tiger tank was silent, and several soldiers climbed onto the tank, shot the lieutenant who opened the top cover and was about to escape, and threw a grenade into the cockpit.

However, just as they were about to come down, several German soldiers with 20MM cannons appeared on the flanks.

chug chug...

With a burst of low-pitched gunshots, the 20MM caliber bullets dismembered them into countless pieces of flesh.

The sniper Jackson hiding on the tower wanted to aim at the shooter of the 20MM machine gun, but found that the target was in a dead angle.

The strafing from the 20MM machine gun overwhelmed the U.S. military.

Jackson was anxious, and Captain Miller was anxious.

At this moment, a whistling sound descended from the sky, and a certain black shadow hit the root of the machine gun with blue smoke.

There was a bang.

The three shooters behind the 20MM machine gun were blown away by the explosion, and the machine gun was also overturned to the ground, making it unusable.

Mortar?

Sniper Jackson was a little dazed. He remembered hearing from his own personnel before building the defense line that the mortar was broken, and they only had a few mortar shells left in their hands.

There is no way to throw a few mortar shells so far.

What the hell is going on here?

Just when he was puzzled, the second whistle sounded from far to near. He looked at the sky and saw a group of black shadows crossing the tower and falling on the left wing of the central block.

boom!

The shell exploded and black smoke billowed.

Jackson looked over there and saw that the Weasel III destroyer that had just left was turning around from the left flank, forming a pinch on the US position, and there were several corpses lying down where the mortar shells fell, and the crater was still smoking.

It took him a while to react, and he quickly sniped the German soldiers who tried to enter the central block for reinforcements.

one shot.

two shots.

Three shots.

...

He killed several German soldiers, but when looking for the next target, he suddenly found that the Weasel III destroyer raised its gun barrel.

This thing has a tank chassis but no turret, so it can't turn, but it's no problem to blow up a tower.

It's over, he's going to die.

Just as this thought flashed through my mind, a black shadow fell from the sky and hit a little behind the gun of the Weasel III destroyer. Black smoke and flames suddenly appeared, and the Weasel III destroyer stopped moving.

It was that mortar again.

Three shells killed a 20MM cannon, a Weasel III destroyer, and three German soldiers.

While changing the magazine, he looked at the building opposite the central block, and suddenly found a face flashing behind the outer wall of the three-story building that had collapsed halfway. From his military uniform, he could see that it was a German soldier. He quickly aimed at the target and pulled the trigger. .

Boom.

The gun went off.

Unfortunately, the bullet missed anyone.

Lin Yue, who was hiding in the folk house, was taken aback. Fortunately, he could dodge fast, otherwise his life would be in danger.

I will help you and beat me back.

He was very upset, took the Mauser 98K to change positions, poked a hole in the wall facing the tower, stretched out the gun and pulled the trigger on the sniper on the tower.

Boom.

Jackson found the situation on the other side. He tried his best to hide, but he couldn't dodge. He was shot firmly in the left shoulder. Fortunately, his life was not in danger. However, because his left arm was injured, he might not be able to wait for Captain Miller. People provided fire support.

"There are snipers in the houses opposite."

The machine gunner who was shooting the German soldiers on the left quickly shifted his heavy machine gun to the right, and swept across the houses.

Of course, Lin Yue would not put himself in danger. While scolding the grenade thrown by the German soldiers for affecting his aim, he jumped from the hole in the floor to the second floor. After that, he jumped over the wall and ran to the position of the artillery sergeant.

The sergeant couldn't help asking: "Why are you back?"

"I was targeted by American snipers. I believe they will send people to attack us in a short time. Hurry up and change positions."

The artillery sergeant ordered the two privates to pack up and leave, but just as he turned around and was about to move to the second pre-selected position, a hand stretched from behind suddenly covered his mouth , and then a flash of brilliance.

The bright red suddenly blurred the vision.

The sergeant fell to the ground unwillingly and incomprehensibly. Wasn't he a learning officer sent by the Japanese army? Not an ally? Why did he do such a thing?

Just before he closed his eyes, the sergeant saw that one of the two second-class soldiers following him had his neck twisted and fell to the ground. It kept stretching and kicking, but it couldn't break free at all, and it was impossible to warn its companions.

What the hell is going on here? Who is he!
