Chapter 263 The Battle of Foy on

On January 5, 1945, this son was four days earlier than the son who attacked Foy in his previous life, and the U.S. military in other places was progressing smoothly. Foy Village is U-shaped surrounded by woods, and the village is surrounded in the middle. In the battle on January 3, the U.S. military has controlled the right half of the U. Now it's time to hit the left half.

This is a simple but cruel operation, that is, to rush through 200 meters of snow-covered open land into the village. But every window in the village may be covered with machine guns, and every German soldier may have brick walls to cover. The situation is so simple. There is no need to maneuver, just rush up and get close to the enemy and use grenades to solve them in the house. The key is to speed up through the open space. If the troops move fast and the cover fire is fierce, then this battle is very simple. If it slows up, it may cause heavy losses.

"Reese!" Captain Winters walked towards Captain Parks, who was preparing by the woods.

"Dick!" Parks was holding a telescope to observe the situation of the German army opposite, and they were all hiding. The Germans could not be seen outside the village, but Parks was sure that the German artillery was hidden in the village and they were ready to fight against the U.S. military. When he heard someone calling him, he put down his telescope and turned around. It was Captain Winters.

"Tay your preparation!" Captain Winters rarely asked about the tactical layout of Company E, because Parks would not let him down in every action. What the second battalion has to do is to provide them with cover, and machine guns and cannons can hit the German army at any time. And E company only needs to pass through the open space quickly. This is an established policy, but the specific tactics are flexibly changed on the battlefield according to the situation of the commander. So this time he couldn't help asking.

"Nothing, just let the brothers not stop!" Parks said to Winters.

Winters nodded and said, "Yes, this battle requires speed. The I Company of the 3rd Battalion advanced eastward, which should distract the attention of the German army. While they are ready to deal with mortars and heavy artillery against you, you must rush over. That's the point!"

In this case, there is no better way to attack the village. There is an auxiliary attack of Company I to attract the attention of the German army, as well as fire cover. This is a tough battle without any fancy. Because any fancy can only bring a heavy loss to the attacking side. Parks understands this truth. The German army has arranged firepower in the whole village of Foy. There is no focus, but it can also quickly gather as a focus. As long as they are attacked, they can move quickly, thus forming a key point of attack.

"Prepare well!" Winters looked at his watch. It was eight o'clock sharp, and there was still an hour before the attack. Captain Parks summoned all the officers and sergeants in the company, and he was about to start assigning the final attack mission.

"We attack in three ways. I led a platoon in the middle, Lieutenant Foley led the second platoon on my left, and Lieutenant Spiel led the platoon on the right. Our distance could not be too widened, but between the soldiers and the soldiers, the attack was formed in a scattered formation, not too dense. The Germans may counterattack with cannons. Their 88mm gun has a short preparation time and a fast attack time, so our speed is faster, let alone behind their heavy artillery when they start to counterattack. Parks looked at the three lieutenant officers and said, "Keep the speed of the team at any time. This is the first and cannot be changed!" Do you understand?"

"I understand!" The three lieutenants answered.

"Okay!" Parks nodded and then said to the platoon of sergeants, "You should keep the integrity of the team and urge every soldier to advance and attack. Once the team enters the Foi Village, it is a battle between the classes. You should enable every soldier in the class to cooperate with each other to reduce mistakes and casualties. Especially to prevent German snipers.

"Yes, sir!" The sergeants nodded in response.

"Okay, guys, wait for the order to attack! Now there is still half an hour to talk to your brothers, tell them what to do, protect your life, and teach the German army a hard lesson. Parks clapped his hands and stood up. The officers and sergeants dispersed, found their own platoons and classes one after another, and began to prepare the brothers for the attack.

"Harry!" Parks said to the Welsh lieutenant beside him, "I tell you, if I'm injured, you have to take over my command. Don't let the brothers stop!"

Wales couldn't help laughing and said, "Lace, will you get hurt too? No, no, no, in my impression, you can always have some shit luck. Even if you rush to the front, the Germans don't seem to see you. Now I'm wondering if it's safer for me to be with you when I charge later.

"Remember my words!" Parks shook his head with a smile. He knew his position in the hearts of his brothers and his position in the hearts of the Welsh lieutenant. He no longer defended, but just smiled.

"Luz, why do I always feel that I'm trembling all over, just like dancing! Damn, I've never felt like this before!" Cabo leaned over to Luz, then shivered and took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to Luz. He took one in his mouth. With a click, the lighter lit the cigarette of the two people.

"Wow--" Luz highlighted a cigarette, then looked at Capor and said, "Are you nervous?"

Kaber was stunned and was about to shake his head to deny it, but he stopped. In front of him, he looked like Sdenson and Heck were blown up, as if they were in front of him. Then he nodded and sighed at Luz, "Maybe, maybe I'm scared." God, I just can't get rid of the scene of Sdensen's broken leg yesterday. I don't know why. Luz, I'm a veteran from Tacosia. Why am I still afraid of these? This doesn't make sense!"

"Are you guilty?" Luz took another puff of cigarette. He didn't look at Carper's expression at all. He just focused on the village of Foy in front of him, but his casual words stunned Carper.

"Guilt guilt?" When Carbo was about to refute, he was stuck and couldn't say it. Is it guilt? Why can't I get rid of Sdenson's appearance after injury in my mind? Just because you didn't rush out of the bunker like Sdensen and risk being smashed to save Heck? This is impossible. He immediately rejected the idea! But what he didn't expect at all was that the idea couldn't help churning in the bottom of his heart.

"Ruz, do you think I feel guilty? What do I have to feel guilty about? Cap was stunned for a while, and then said to Luz, "I have nothing to feel guilty about." He seems to be sure.

Ruz glanced at him, then took a cigarette hard, and spewed out a long and comfortable smoke: "Even if you don't feel guilty, there's nothing bad. Well, Carbo, if you're still struggling with these problems before the attack, you will definitely be affected. Don't let De The national guy hit you. All right, let's end this problem! Forget it!"

"Okay, okay!" Karbo nodded, and then took a deep breath. His fingers flicked gently. The cigarette butt drew an arc in the air and landed on the snow. A wisp of smoke was quickly soaked by the snow, making a gentle "sizzling" and extinguished.

"Hi, Westfordi, Ligt, Webb, Pakante, Hefran and Ellie, God, you are all here, which saves me a lot of trouble. Listen, guys, Captain Parks will call you over and you will win the jackpot!" Sergeant Tebert came over and said to E Company, a group of people hiding in the woods. Then he saw the person he was looking for and smiled proudly.

Captain Parks has an arrangement in the attack. Obviously, in order to eliminate the threat posed by the German snipers to the brothers of Company E, Parks decided to let some of the best shooting in the company serve as cover tasks and be responsible for clearing the German snipers at the sniper point.

"Remember, your primary purpose is not to charge, but to eliminate German snipers!" With that, Parks pointed to the empty snow in front of him and said, "There are many hay on the snow, and some wooden agricultural frames, which can provide cover for you. What you have to do is to suppress or remove the sniper under the cover. Remember that you can't stay at one point. You have to keep changing the cover point with the charge of your brothers, which is beneficial to you. If you change positions at any time, it will not be easy for the German army to find your point. Do you understand?"

"I see, sir!" Everyone nodded. All right, you will be scattered in three rows, two groups." Parks finally nodded and said, "Go and get ready!"

Xi Fudi suddenly raised his hand and said, "S sir, I ask to speak!"

Parks was stunned, and then looked at him and said, "Say it, sergeant!"

Xifudi thought for a while, and then said cautiously, "If possible, why don't you put all the brothers who are good at shooting into a class and use them centrally? It may be beneficial!"

Parks looked at Xifudi in surprise. He didn't expect that Xifudi, who usually didn't talk much and was a little shy, would have such an idea. Obviously, he had experienced the sweetness of the special combat method and began to think about problems.

"Do you mean this attack?" Parks was not sure of Sifudi's idea, so he added.

"No, no, I mean, in the future, when I was listening to you just now, I... I suddenly had such an idea in my mind!" Xifudi seemed a little nervous, "I'm just saying it. Forget it, I think I'd better forget it, which makes me embarrassed!"

Parks shook his head and smiled, "No, no, Xifudi, it's a very good idea. I think it would be a good thing if I could do it like this. In fact, I also have this idea. It seems that we have thought of something!"

"Really!" Xifudi suddenly smiled. He nodded and said, "Thank you, Captain. It really makes sense for me that you can say this. This makes me... let me, how to say? Thank you, Captain!" Sifudi seemed to be a little incoherent. In fact, he was very proud that his opinion could be endorsed by Parks.

Parks suddenly began to feel whether he despised the ideas of his brothers too much. In the past, he designed some tactics by himself and then conveyed them to his brothers according to his own ideas. He never thought that they would have any suggestions or ideas. Now it seems that he still ignores them, and the wisdom of the group is really worth paying attention to!

Time is walking minute by minute.

"Start the attack!" Captain Winters looked at his watch and then assigned the task of attack. Machine gun bullets and cannon shells suddenly flew over the sky over the village of Foy, and Foy was immediately caught in a continuous explosion.

Parks rushed to the forefront of the woods and said to the brothers of Company E, "Brothers, remember their respective tasks. Let's rush over quickly and pay attention to the German snipers. All right, let's go, let's go!" With that, he picked up the M1 rifle and rushed out with a step, with a vast expanse of snow in front of him.
