Chapter 269 The days of Captain Parks' absence
At 4 p.m. the day after Captain Parks was at the ambulance station, infantry of a company of Germans, under the cover of six tanks, counterattacked the village of Foy, which was defended by the third battalion. But soon they were repulsed. Then the German army used 14 tanks and a battalion of infantry to increase the offensive force against the village of Foe.
This battle was very fierce. Company E served as a guard in the south of the village. They watched the fire of Fooyi Village, and the explosions and bullets were dense. Some ears even said that they heard someone screaming. In fact, even if the sound of gunfire can be heard in their position, the screams can never be heard. When people are nervous, they will have a lot of hallucinations.
Kaber looked at Foy Town in front of him with dementia. Many people were paying attention to the battle situation in Foy Town. Obviously, if the third battalion could not stick to it, then Company E would have to get the task of attacking Fooyi Town again. But now the situation is much more complicated than the last attack on Foy Town. Last time the German army was just to delay time, but this time they wanted to stick to it. Compared with the difficulty, I don't know how many times it is. Everyone prayed for the three battalions in their hearts.
"God, I don't want to attack that damn place anymore." Kabo muttered, "God knows if there is another time, I will be hit by the Germans!"
"I agree with you, Kab!" Hubler stared at Foy Village and walked to Carbo's side. "Now the boss is still at the Baston Ambulance Station. I don't want to attack Foy when the boss is away. God, I really can't imagine what the leaderless E Company will be like, especially such a tough battle!"
People with this kind of emotion, not only Cap and Hubler, but also the soldiers of almost the entire E Company, were thinking about it when they saw that the third battalion was about to retreat. They are likely to return to the battlefield now, but who can lead the brothers of Company E to victory at a very small price?
Lieutenant Welsh, deputy company commander? This was quickly ruled out.
"I know Lieutenant Wales is a good man, but that's all!" Grenari and his brothers sat around and expressed their opinions, "I like him, but it doesn't mean that I want him to lead us to attack Foy."
"Lieutenant Speer? I like Lieutenant Sbier!" Li Pu suddenly coughed dryly, "Guys, during the last attack on Foy, everyone saw Lieutenant Spiel. I really can't imagine that he passed through the German team like that and contacted the I Company opposite, and he could come back safely!"
"Well, you can charge with Lieutenant Spiel. I hope he won't shoot you in the back of you. Do you know? He once shot and killed a sergeant who was drunk and refused to carry out the order, Li Pu, who is your current position!" Hevron suddenly interrupted, "When I was in Company D, you know?"
"That's a legend. I don't believe it!" Maraki shook his head, "But he shot more than a dozen prisoners of war, I know. So I don't want to charge with such a person!"
"I've seen his battle at Brekut Manor. God, I just don't care whether the bullet is shooting at him or not. Several people in Company D who followed him were hit. He was so lucky that he was not hit and let him capture the last cannon. Huai nodded and said, "So even if you follow him, you have to be careful. I don't want to be his victim!"
"Okay, okay, guys, we have to follow a company commander, now Lieutenant Wales, which may be the best choice. In fact, the officers in our company are quite good, at least better than the officers in the F company. They have a scattering pit for Lieutenant Dyck. It is said that the brothers of F Company often can't find this guy. He always hides in the pit of scattered soldiers. Think about this, we are lucky enough!" At this time, Sergeant Tebert came over and decided to end such a conversation. After all, it still had a huge impact on morale.
"Well, we are always used to being around Captain Parks and then winning, but guys, have you ever thought that Captain Parks will leave us one day? He can't always be just a company commander. How can a person like him, who has won many medals and created countless miracles, always be a company commander? When Li Pu saw Tibert coming, he stood up, clapped his hands, and said to his brothers, "Think about it. We will always have this day. Maybe today is the latest experience after we left Captain Parks. Good luck!" With that, he left the crowd.
But Li Pu's words made everyone begin to meditate. Yes, Captain Parks will leave Company E one day. You can't stop Captain Parks from being promoted, can you? This doesn't make sense.
"I hope we can end this damn war soon!" Hevran said anlangly, kneading the snow into a ball of snow in his hand, throwing it forward vigorously, and rolling a few times on the snow.
"No, I don't want to leave like this!" Daniel Landman smiled and said, "Maybe I can continue to work with Captain Parks. If so, I would like to take soldiers as my lifelong career!"
"Do you mean the special action team that the leader is going to form?" Hefran suddenly turned his head and looked at Daniu Randorman. "Why don't you tell your brothers everything you know? What's going on? I'm a little confused! Aren't we a complete company?
"The time hasn't come yet, Babe!" Grenari smiled at him, "When the boss announces this in person, we should have a choice!"
"I hope so! To be honest, if I really leave my brothers, I will still be very reluctant!" Hevran nodded and muttered to himself.
At this time, Kabo, who had been staring at Ford Village, shouted, and then stood up and pointed to Fooy Village in front of him and shouted, "God, the bastards of the third battalion retreated. They were kicked out by the Germans!" Damn, what should we do?"
Everyone followed the call of Carbo. Obviously, the situation was unfavorable to the three battalions. Their people kept retreating, and then they had withdrawn from Fuyi Village and entered the outskirts of the village. On the attacking side, German tanks were constantly advancing and bombarding the fixed positions and bunkers of the three battalions in the village.
"God, the three camps are over!" Malaki looked at the thick smoke rolling in front of him and couldn't help sighing.
Lieutenant Welsh appeared at the front line at this time, looked at his brothers, and then said to Tebert, "There is bad news, guys. Sergeant, gather the non-commissioned officers and platoon commanders to the company. We have something to do. The third battalion has already retreated. The battalion commander of Winters received an order from Colonel Sink to prepare the second battalion. We are going to attack Foy Village again.
"Lieutenant, don't they know that we have just experienced a hard battle?" Gernelly muttered with some dissatisfaction, "We beat Foy down. Why can't we go to the third battalion? Don't they know that we just retreated?
The Welsh lieutenant looked at Gernelly and said blankly, "Sergeant, I also want to hand over this problem to Captain Winters, but we have to carry out the order. All right, get ready!"
Watching the Lieutenant Welsh leave, everyone couldn't help sighing. Sergeant Tebert went to summon the platoon leader, while Lipp was responsible for summoning the sergeant. But more is the mood of the soldiers, which suddenly fell to the lowest point. I thought that the brothers would have a break after a big war, but they were disappointed.
"Lieutenant Welsh is such a good man!" Malachi said sarcastically to Glenery.
"Hey hey, it's not his fault. It's Colonel Sink, you know? What can the Welsh lieutenant do? He just carried out orders, just like we must obey Lieutenant Hai Lige's orders, and Hai Lige obeys the company commander. Don't talk about this!" Granary was very uncomfortable with Malaqi's words and argued angrily.
Lieutenant Wales was in the company and briefly explained the task. The sergeants of each platoon have assigned tasks according to their own arrangements. Wales took a long sigh. But he saw Lieutenant Hai Lige, who had gone and returned.
"What's the matter? Lieutenant Heiliger!" Lieutenant Wales nodded to him.
"Well, there's something wrong with the brothers!" Lieutenant Hellig hesitated for a moment and said, "They seem to have no confidence. Maybe it's because they want to go to the battlefield again. They are not ready, especially because they have just experienced a difficult offensive battle."
Lieutenant Wales nodded, and he had no choice but to say to Lieutenant Hairig, "I know!" Seeing Lieutenant Hailige turn around and leave, Wales added to him, "Have a good talk with your brothers. Tell them that Captain Parks will be back soon. Don't worry about this attack. We are not the main offensive force!"
Hailige turned his head to look at the Welsh lieutenant, and then nodded. He knew that Lieutenant Wales could do nothing, and even he could not mobilize the positive surnames of his brothers. What he has to do now is to do his job well.
Some of the soldiers who retreated from the third battalion retreated to the place where Company E was located. Looking at the dusty and depressed faces of these people, the brothers felt that they were getting closer and closer to the battlefield.
In the evening, there was no movement between the German army and the U.S. military. Except for the occasional crossfire between the patrols on both sides, nothing happened. But a bigger attack is brewing.
The brothers of E Company slowly waited for the light of the next day in an anxious mood. They were ready to go, and everyone's faces looked a little numb. Da Niu Landman stirred the corners of his clothes with his fingers tightly, and then held the rifle to his chest. Sergeant Tebert and Lieutenant Spiel were at the forefront of the team. They squatted on the ground, waiting for the last order.
