Chapter 553 Reinforcements Are Coming (Plus 14)
When people are cornered, they are not afraid of anything. Now, these French soldiers sandwiched in the middle are like this. They are shot by machine guns on both sides, especially the Germans in front. The firepower at hand is stronger.
In addition to machine guns, the Germans are submachine guns, all of which are bursting firepower. Of course, they are powerful. In contrast, the firepower of the supervisor team behind them is weak.
So, if you want to survive, it seems easier to go backwards and kill the supervising team.
Of course, this means disobeying the order, and it is a battlefield resistance order, and it is possible to be shot directly, but at least, now they have made a way out.
When the machine gunners of the supervising team were killed, the French soldiers who were attacking slowly in front immediately shrank back like a tide. And the soldier who did it was hidden among the others, and he couldn't find it at all.
Should all these soldiers be shot?
Of course not.
Pierre looked at the soldiers in front of him. There was panic in their eyes, and many of them had blood on their bodies. They were not wrong. The fault was this damn order, which made them commit suicide. Order!
Soon, such an idea appeared in Pierre's mind, and now, what to do with these soldiers?
"All are put down and await disposal," said Pierre.
Pierre's entire reserve division was almost crippled, and they would be incapable of attacking until new troops arrived. Take advantage of this opportunity now, take a break!
In Pierre's heart, he was actually scolding his mother. That Darlan, who wanted all the gold, even sacrificed the entire infantry division. This guy is really black.
Now, his troops are no longer capable of attacking. Now, even if Darlan gives another order, he will refuse to accept it.
He did this, of course, to protect his troops and send them to a dead end, but Pierre still couldn't bear it.
Later, Darlan's order came too late, ordering all the troops to stand by!
This guy should have figured it out too, right? Brutal attack in this way is simply not enough.
France's third large-scale attack was thus repelled.
In the rear, standing on the manor, Skorzeny was calm.
"Our bullets are depleted very quickly." Beside him, assistant Vulksam returned from the front position and reported to him.
When all the weapons with bursts are used, the consumption of bullets will increase astronomically.
Just put the French soldiers to the nearest fight, in fact, to save bullets, even so, the consumption of bullets still makes them frown.
"According to our current consumption, we can't last for three days." Volksam continued: "Also, we estimate that the French will attack at night. If we want to control the front at night, we need more Lots of bullets."
Now, in front of them is a supply problem, they don't have enough bullets!
"It seems that we have to receive a second shipment of gliders at night," Skorzeny said.
Since the number of bullets is not enough, it must be replenished in time. It is inconvenient during the day and no problem at night!
If it really doesn't work, let the transport plane parachute at high altitude, even if some of it will fall into the hands of the French outside, don't be afraid, anyway, the bullet calibers of the two countries are not common, and the French will pick it up for nothing.
On the contrary, as long as it can fall into one's own control area, even if only one tenth of it falls, it will rain in time.
He was thinking about it when he saw the radio operator walking towards him excitedly with a telegram: "Colonel, good news, we will hold on for another six hours. The reinforcements are expected to arrive in six hours."
Hearing this, everyone was stunned, six hours? Why so fast?
"Is it the northern army?" Skorzeny said while receiving the telegram, and he was overjoyed immediately.
This time, for the French fish plan, Germany has carefully designed a huge plan, which is closely linked, but, as a specific actor, it only knows part of the plan.
For example, Skorzeny received an order to occupy the manor and hold on until the reinforcements arrived, but he did not directly explain when the reinforcements would arrive.
Of course, this is also for confidentiality. After all, the more people who know it, the harder it is to keep it a secret.
At the same time, the landing troops at sea, who do not know that there is already a small force, have already landed in Brest, France. The order they received is to open up the second battlefield to fight France.
The order to quickly aid the special forces in the manor will not be issued until they come ashore.
Now, Skorzeny's troops have been holding on for half a day, and at sea, their own landing troops will also land in a few hours. In this case, the expected arrival time of the additional troops was notified. Skorzeny.
This made Skorzeny extremely happy. It was easier for the latter to hold on for three days than for six hours.
Now, Skorzeny's troops have only sporadic casualties. These are achieved by intensive firepower. If there are not enough bullets, the casualties will increase.
"Tell Berlin that we will hold our ground until reinforcements arrive, and we will never let the French touch our gold," Skorzeny said.
For six hours, we can definitely defend ourselves, and defend beautifully!
Skorzeny is quite confident.
At the same time, he is also very strange, six hours! How could the army in the north run so fast? Definitely not the northern legion, then, there is only one possibility.
Although there is no specific information, as a senior commander, he needs to have the ability to judge. He knows that in recent months, his own side has also increased troops to Spain, and after his special forces stationed in Spain, they also I heard that they are collecting ships.
It seems that it is coming from Spain!
This is the rhythm of landing directly in Brest. If you count the time, after your own special forces set off, these ships will also set off.
It's a pity that it is dozens of kilometers away from the port. Otherwise, you should be able to see the scene on the port, right?
Skorzeny thought of this, and immediately became quite excited.
He guessed right.
At this time, the German fleet was moving towards Brest, and the Bismarck, which was running at full power, was about to enter the range of the cannon!
After the carrier-based aircraft of the two aircraft carriers completely seized the air supremacy over Brest, all the warships above the 10,000-ton level in the German fleet moved towards the port, and they used their own guns to destroy Brest. Lay the foundation for the next landing!
At this time, the AR196 water reconnaissance aircraft had already flown over Brest.
