Chapter 748 The Battle in the City (Plus 2)

"Damn, these British soldiers seem to have disappeared." Leaning on his infantry fighting vehicle, squad leader Goethe said.

The follow-up troops are still coming. The troops who arrived here in advance are only the size of an armored regiment and an armored grenadier regiment. They began to sweep the city, but they did not see British soldiers.

Goethe spoke with concern.

"In short, I feel that the British soldiers are still here, but they are mixed with the civilians, and we cannot distinguish them from the civilians," said a soldier.

Yes, when they ran into a house, there was a woman who was cooking, and two children were playing with their father. When they saw such a scene, they couldn't see the man Taken by soldiers.

How to identify?

If it is a veteran, just look at the opponent's shoulder to see if there are calluses. Those with calluses are veterans. Similarly, if there is a callus on the index finger, it is also the result of constantly touching the gun.

However, these experiences are not useful here.

Because most of the recruits recruited by the British are recruits. These recruits have never fired a few shots and have not been trained at all. They are mixed with civilians, and it is difficult to see.

Just like that, they are now lost.

"Bang." At this moment, suddenly, not far away, a gunshot, a bullet, rubbed Goethe's scalp, and flew out.

Attack! These damn raids! Picking up his submachine gun and hiding behind the infantry fighting vehicle, Goethe fired angrily, and the 6.8mm rifle bullets poured towards the opposite side!

"Machine gunner, cover, let's rush over!" Goethe was already swept away by anger at this time, and let his subordinates, in the dark, rush towards the place where the fire was fired on the opposite side!

Goethe rushed to the front, just when they just reached the open street, from their side, the sound of the Wex machine gun sounded, 7.7mm bullets poured over, and in an instant, several soldiers fell.

Shot in the thigh, Goethe fell under the pillar. He turned his head back and heard an explosion behind him. The wheeled infantry fighting vehicle had been blown up by the opponent's sticky bomb!

The firelight illuminated the dark city, leaving only the swearing sounds of German soldiers.

This is just so maddening!

Where is the enemy? Can't find it!

"Boom!" A Panther 3 tank angrily crashed into a house in front. Just now, several British soldiers shot on the roof of this house.

The house collapsed in an instant, followed by the cries of children.

Armed British soldiers disappeared, only a British woman used her body to block the falling roof and protect the children below. The woman was no longer breathing.

"Too much, too much!" The tanker stood on the turret, looking at the dark night sky, cursing the British in German.

"We killed five more Germans!" At this moment, in a room not far behind, Mills excitedly reported to Bernard.

If they had set up defenses outside the city during the day, there would have been no doubt that they would have fallen on icy positions by now, and their bodies would not even be intact, and would have been crushed by the tracks of the tanks.

But now, in the city, especially now, at night, they are like a duck to water!

The mighty German devils are being wiped out by them! Even if the Germans came in a division and scattered across the streets, they would be like water droplets in the sea.

The Germans were bold enough to use chariots as a unit to search everywhere, so that they could be broken into pieces, set up traps, and constantly attack each other!

"Yes, we are going to keep bleeding the Germans like this!" Bernard said happily: "Now, we have got in touch with London, they value our tactics very much, and, as long as it arrives tomorrow, We'll be backed up by armored forces, and we'll be able to drive the Germans out of town completely!"

How can we defeat the German army? This is probably the issue that has recently come before commanders at all levels.

The equipment of the German army was several years ahead of the surrounding countries. After the First World War, when all countries were tired of war, Germany continued to study and develop, and produced various advanced weapons, forming an absolute generational difference. Advantage.

In addition to equipment, the concept of combat is even more advanced. The Germans first concentrated on the use of tanks and created the blitzkrieg. This terrifying combat style is invincible.

France has surrendered. This is the most powerful army country on the European continent. How should Britain fight back?

Exeter, set an example.

That is, urban warfare!

German tanks, armored vehicles, planes, and artillery are useless in cities. If Germany strictly abides by the Geneva Convention, it cannot fire on civilians, but its own side can take advantage of the familiar terrain to continuously attack the enemy!

"The results are gratifying." Churchill said with a sigh: "I didn't expect that the defenders of Exeter had created a miracle for us, and also provided us with ideas, Germany's nemesis, the battle in the city!"

Think about how stupid the French are to declare Paris an undefended city. If the French government can stick to Paris, maybe the turning point of this war will come!

"We want to turn every city along the way into a cemetery for the German army! A large amount of the Germans' living strength is consumed to create opportunities for our counter-offensive!" Churchill was excited.

For more than 30 hours in a row, Churchill didn't close his eyes, and now, he finally heard the good news.

However, not everyone agrees.

"Mr. Prime Minister, I think we've all forgotten, what about the civilians there?" Paresi Hobert looked at the crowd: "Everyone, war has nothing to do with civilians, and we are doing this now, but we are putting civilians, lead to a dead end."

These words were like pouring cold water on everyone. Seeing that they could suppress the Germans, is this plan now also abolished?

Churchill couldn't help but feel an inexplicable urge in his heart. Sure enough, this old guy was disliked by everyone, and he reactivated him himself. I don't know if it was a mistake?

In fact, many people have thought of his idea, including Churchill. As Prime Minister, his thinking is more open. Of course, he also knows how this will affect the civilians. However, he doesn't care, and the civilians are implicated. OK.
