Chapter 55 Day D
Chapter 55 D said
Parks took out the Luger, carefully withdrew the bullet, and then put it in his pocket. He didn't want to be as unlucky as Hubler later. But the capture of Luger made Parks very happy. After all, the Luger pistols are world-famous guns now and in the future, which will not change, and even the current German [***] team is relatively less equipped. Only relatively senior non-commissioned officers or some senior military officers are equipped. It is also an honor to be able to capture Luger pistols on the battlefield. .
"You are so lucky!" Luz watched with envy as Parks put away the Luger pistol. Obviously, it's not just him, almost everyone is envious and jealous that Parks was able to capture Ruger on the first day of landing.
"There's nothing to envy, Luz, I will also capture it in the future!" Gu Si crooked his mouth.
Parks smiled and said, "Yes, but Ruger is really precious! It's the most beautiful baby in the world!" He continued to look at the German [***] official for a while. In addition to some German banknotes, there was also a photo of a beautiful woman beside her. She was a seven- or eight-year-old boy with a smile on the corners of their mouths and looked very quiet.
Parks found his ID card and a pocket watch in his other coat pocket.
"Captain Jiri Raymond of the German 6th Parachute Regiment?" Parks smiled and put these away.
"It's a captain!" Gu Si approached at this time, "Hey, Parks, can you show me Luge?"
Parks smiled, then took out Luger and handed it over: "Take a good look, there will be a chance in the future!" Then he waved to Gordon.
Gordon walked over and said, "What's the matter, Parks!"
"When you shoot in the future, listen to my orders, even if you are found!" Parks said seriously. It turned out that Gordon was the first to shoot. He was illuminated by a flashlight by the Germans, but he didn't know whether he had found himself or not. It was a completely subconscious reaction.
Gordon's face was a little ugly, and he still agreed: "I'm sorry, I know!"
"Let's go!" Parks looked a little better and said to Gu Si, who was still squatting on the ground and rummaging on the German body, "If we don't go, we can't go. The Germans will come soon, and we can't go on this road anymore. We have to find another way out."
Luz found a few bills on a German soldier. He randomly stuffed them into his pocket, and then got up and followed the line. Cabo looked at him and couldn't help saying something.
"What's the use of the Germans' money?"
Luz said with a smile, "When we land in Berlin one day, I can still use it to buy bread!"
Kalber curled his lips and didn't say anything. The group left the road and walked to a path next to it. The path is next to a river. The river is not wide, but it is very long. A few people walked along the river. The path was not suitable for the Germans to drive to chase, which was a wise choice.
Along the way, I never met the German army again, not even a small group of German troops. The people in the team began to relax. They were nervous all night, and everyone's nerves were very tense. In particular, Parks and Christenson exchanged fire with the Germans three times in one night, and they were a little tired, not to mention that they carefully drove such a long road.
The sky is gradually getting brighter. Although it is only bright, the visible distance around is getting farther and farther away. The sporadic gunfire around them came faintly, far away from them.
"Sing--"
A sharp roar cut through the dawn and shook around the river. A frog jumped up from Luz's feet and fell into the pond with a "bang".
Obviously, Luz was shocked and he stamped his feet.
"Boom--" With a loud explosion, everyone subconsciously lay on the ground.
The sharp roar of shells in the sky is so dense, just like the "buzzing" of mosquitoes in the grass in summer, and even the ears can't take care of it.
The huge explosions came one after another, and the fire still reflected the dawn of the Normandy sky. The explosion point is still far away from Parks.
They got up and looked at the sky at the same time.
"It's the navy!" Carbo's voice was a little excited, "They are so punctual!"
"I hope they can blow up the Germans!" Gu Si raised his hand and said to Parks, "I'll be the striker. I'll go ahead." After a few steps, he felt the front of the team.
Coloe Haight also felt St. Mary de Montt at this time. He deployed a battalion here, and the battalion headquarters was located in a church. Although he was ambushed by Parks, he was keenly judged that there were not many Americans ambushing them, so he still followed the same route after bringing a platoon of German troops. This time he walked smoothly.
However, on the way to the ambush, Colonel Haight met Captain Raymond, who was dead. He asked the two soldiers to stay to deal with the bodies of the fallen soldiers, so he stopped.
"Major Huffman, accompany me to the tower!" When Colonel Haite arrived at St. Mary de Monte's Church, he directly ordered Major Huffman, who came to greet him.
"Yes, Colonel!" Huffman is a very rigid man. There is no smile on his thin face, but he will resolutely carry out every order of the colonel. From his eagle-like cold eyes, it can be seen that his will is very firm.
The tower of the church is fifty or sixty meters above the ground. After Haite climbed up, he raised his telescope and looked at Utah Beach, and then he was speechless for a long time. Yes, he saw a fleet of this size for the first time.
Looking at the beach, there are hundreds of landing boats, and the beach is densely packed with fully armed soldiers who have set foot on the beach. Behind them are countless huge warships. The cannons on the warship were shooting fiercely. He could even see the fire when the shell flew out, as if the stars were shining all over the sky, but more bright than the stars.
Haite controlled the shock in his heart, slowly put down the telescope, and didn't say anything for a long time. Then he looked at Major Huffman beside him, and his eyes gradually became solemn.
"S sir, do you have any orders?" Major Huffman felt that he should ask directly.
"Listen!" Haite said something, and then frowned.
"It's the sound of the enemy's cannon, sir!" Huffman answered honestly.
Colonel Haite shook his head: "It's already dawn, but the enemy paratroopers came here last night, but now there is no conflict. Isn't it strange? Also, the enemy's cannons are roaring, but what about our cannons? Where is it?"
Huffman couldn't answer, but he already felt that there were not many cannons on his side participating in the counterattack. At least compared with the enemy, it was too far away.
Coloe Haite pointed to a place about a mile to the north and said, "That's Brekut Manor. We have deployed four cannons there, but why haven't there been any movement so far? An artillery company was deployed there. But now there is no cannon firing even one shell. Why is that? Major?"?
"I know! Colonel!" Huffman replied without hesitation, "Obviously, those artillerymen have abandoned their positions."
Colonel Haite was a little angry and almost roared: "Yes, send someone to Karantan immediately, let a battalion attack the manor, and gather the scattered artillery. Give full play to the power of those 105mm cannons and show a little color to those arrogant enemies. Hurry up!"
Huffman did not dare to neglect. He immediately called the messenger and gave the order. At this time, Haite breathed a sigh of relief and walked down from the tower. He knew in his heart that the Allies were now powerful, and the German troops deployed in Normandy were too weak. It was only a matter of time before they were broken through. He was just doing his duty as a soldier now.
Huffman accompanied Colonel Haight, but he was obviously a little puzzled: "Coloner, why don't you let us camp to attack Brekut Manor? Our action will be faster.
"Your duty is to protect St. Mary's Monte." The colonel only said one sentence and stopped explaining. Let Huffman swallow the next words.
"Wrap!" The water wave gently rippled, and a pair of leather boots trekked forward in a very shallow ditch. Parks and others are almost in St. Mary's Monte, and they see a village from afar.
Parks took out the pocket watch in his arms and looked at it. It was already 7:15. He took out the map, made a comparison on the map, and determined the location of the village. It was only two miles away from St. Mary's Monte.
"Grangemon?" Parks said to himself.
Luz came up and glanced at the map: "Is it the name of this village? It's pretty good!"
"You are very optimistic, Luz. If there were German troops in the village in front of you, I don't think you would have said that!" Gordon joked, "Or you can shout to the Germans, 'Hey, the name of this village is good. Don't shoot at me, okay?"
Everyone couldn't help laughing. Parks added, "This is the name given by the French, not the German!"
