Chapter 49 Street Fight
Boom, boom, boom! ! ! ! !
A dozen heavy mortars of over 80 mm roared, plowing all the ground at the entrance of the manor. The once solid stone wall was blown into seven or eight sections, and the originally beautiful roses were blown to pieces. A military boot stepped on his feet.
As the first-class German Army in Europe, once it uses fire coverage in an upright manner, its power is definitely not a joke.
Including He Chi, everyone in the manor held their heads tightly to prevent being accidentally injured by stray bullets.
The glass everywhere was shattered, and shrapnel kept flying over the heads of several people.
The shelling stopped, and He Chi was pulled out from under a broken table. Before he could dust off the dirt on his body, he shouted to the big black man, "Groot, go to the second one in the south." Window, carry the heavy machine gun over there and guard it!”
After hearing this, the black man picked up the 50-kilogram heavy machine gun and ran to the designated position in a few steps, using the heavy machine gun as a light machine gun! He is the only one here who has this ability.
"Jason takes people up to the second floor, at 9 o'clock, at least 30 people!"
"Pete and me go! Bring the mortar!"
"Camille, take the medicine box!"
"Margaret and Christine, I leave the ammunition transportation to you!"
At least 200 people formed an attack formation around the manor. He Chi's right eye was densely covered with small red dots representing enemies. At this time, he had no intention of pretending to be "Oriental divination" and directly gave orders to several people in the room.
Thud, tug, tug, tug! ! !
Boom! boom!
After a while, continuous gunfire came from all directions in the manor, with the sound of grenade mortars at intervals.
The French squad was always able to discover their position before the German troops arrived and get the first shot at firing. The German troops, who had put aside their worries and no longer cared about casualties, launched a saturation attack with brute force.
The battle was intense from the beginning.
At least twenty people fell in the first wave of the Germans, and some people on the French side also began to be injured - a bullet pierced Jason's right arm.
Unlike the German army who had a large number of reserves behind them, every combat capability on He Chi's side was very valuable. Just the injury of one person instantly increased the defensive pressure on one side.
The first problem that occurred was on Black Groot's side - the heavy machine gun fired for too long, and the barrel overheated and was scrapped.
The German army, which had been suppressed, took advantage of this opportunity to swarm forward, but the black man who had been acting like a giant before saw this scene without even thinking, turned around and ran away - He Chi had previously told him to do it as soon as possible if he could not hold on. ran back.
The German colonel in the distance put down the telescope in his hand, turned to face Metzer and said
"It seems you are right, second lieutenant, the people on the other side are well prepared, but the number is insufficient. Although we have fallen dozens of outstanding young men, that’s it. As long as the rear breaks through, we can separate..."
Boom! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
There was a loud and earth-shaking sound, and a quarter of the entire manor collapsed in the violent explosion. Also disappearing were nearly a platoon of German soldiers who had already rushed in.
"Oh my God! Are they crazy? Planting explosives in their own house?!" Someone murmured from the side.
This is based on He Chi’s reference to the Soviet army’s fighting method in the historical Battle of Stalingrad. Explosives were planted in advance in the building responsible for defense. Once faced with the risk of being lost, they would be detonated immediately to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the original location. Attack yourself and, if you're lucky, bring a wave of enemies with you. Not only the rear, but also the front was involved in close-range street fighting.
A few leading German soldiers crawled forward, using the broken rocks as a shield to get under the wall of the building and prepare to launch a surprise attack.
Seeing that their own soldiers had reached a favorable position, the German support weapons fired frantically at the windows of the manor, trying to attract the defenders' attention and create opportunities for their companions.
The German soldiers under the wall made gestures to each other, and each took out a grenade. They should be invisible from their position. A grenade that suddenly flew into the building would have an unexpected effect.
1, 2, and 3, two people pulled the lead at the same time, but just a second before they were about to throw, a round object was thrown into the room.
A British Mills "Melon" hand grenade.
Boom!
boom! boom!
There were three explosions in a row. The first one was the sound of a grenade thrown by the defender, and the second one was the explosion of two German-made grenades that failed to be thrown out.
Metzel frowned when he saw this scene in the distance, "How did he see someone there? And how did he master the timing so accurately?"
But it's not over yet. , three German soldiers on the other side rolled in from the kitchen window on the first floor. As soon as they showed up, a loaded MAP18 submachine gun was already waiting there. In the narrow passage, the powerful automatic firepower caused several bullets to appear in the chests of the two men in front in an instant. Kong fell down.
The third soldier was not shot because he was blocked by his companions. Just when he thought his opponent had emptied his magazine, the Asian in front of him raised his hand and picked up the meat cleaver on the chopping board. Stabbed into his neck.
The whole process took no more than 3 seconds, and this group of Germans didn't even fire a single bullet.
Dang!
The meat cleaver was thrown aside. He Chi collapsed on the ground and gasped for air. Fighting at close range took a lot of physical strength, and his right eye began to hurt after being used again and again.
An enemy appeared again in his vision. He Chi wanted to get up and grab the weapon, but he was unable to pick it up because the gun was slippery with blood.
A German soldier came in through the window again. He was stunned when he saw He Chi lying on the ground, and then raised his weapon.
"Damn it! It's over now." He Chi cursed secretly, planning to fight to the death to get another backstop.
Bang!
The gunfire rang out, but He Chi was unharmed. A flower of blood appeared on the chest of the German soldier and he fell straight down.
On the other side of the room, Christine was holding a Browning pistol and her legs were shaking.
The same battles are taking place in various parts of the manor.
As the sky gradually darkened, the German commander's face became increasingly ugly. More than 50 soldiers were carried down, not counting the platoon buried in the house and the people who fell inside. The enemy on the opposite side has only lost one person so far - a machine gunner who was slow in moving and was knocked to the ground by a submachine gun.
"Who did the French send here? Pétain's direct guard?!" the commander cursed secretly in his heart. The most important thing was that he found that as the sun went down, the situation of the battle was changing. It was becoming increasingly disadvantageous for them. His soldiers were unable to accurately find their targets due to the dim light, while the other side seemed completely unaffected.
After much thought, the colonel finally gave an order bitterly, "Let our people withdraw first!"
