Chapter five hundred and seventy-two new enemy situation 7)

Soldier David quickly squatted on the ground, took off the mortar he carried, holding the cannon barrel in his left hand and holding the bottom plate below with his right hand.

This posture is almost no different from the grenade launcher of the island country.

Yes, this kind of thing is called a mortar, but in fact, it is just a grenade launcher.

This is a 2-inch gun. If converted into metric system, it is 51 mm. It can be found that the caliber is very small and easy to carry. In the organization of the British army, this kind of mortar has one in the command center of each platoon, and three in each of the lower ones. It can be said that when the troops lack heavy weapons, this kind of mortar is their main weapon to attack.

In terms of range and ammunition power, it is not as good as the French 60mm mortar. Compared with the Japanese grenade launcher, the range is slightly larger and the accuracy is slightly higher. Especially with simple sights, it is easy for novices to master.

Yes, this kind of mortar and simple sights.

At this time, after David set off the mortar, he began to tinker on the turntable below. Now, the distance is four hundred meters, which is almost the limit of his own range, so the highest elevation angle must be used.

Then, the angle adjustment was adjusted. This mortar had two angle rulers in the chassis and the middle, which were used for fine adjustments. Soon, he completed the preparation.

"Let me!" he shouted loudly.

The assistant next to him stuffed the 2-inch mortar shells into the muzzle and let go.

"Bang!" When the shell fell to the end, it was fired below, and the gunpowder ignited. With its own power, the shell flew out of the muzzle.

David looked at the shells he shot out in a flash. The first shot was not necessarily accurate. He needed to correct it by observing the landing point. The second time was definitely more accurate than the first time.

"Boom!" Sure enough, the shell exploded a few meters away from the opponent's machine gun, and turned three secret positions to the right!

He adjusted nervously, and then he felt his head as if he had been hit by something, and his neck could not bear such a powerful impact.

Then, his world was dark, before darkness, there was no severe pain, only numbness.

"David!" shouted the loader next to him.

A bullet hit David's head accurately. After the loading hand finished shouting, he was also shot in the head.

Opposite, there is a sniper!

The people behind him did not hesitate and immediately stepped forward, took over the mortar, and continued to operate.

Even if there are snipers on the opposite side, they need to fight. Only by defeating the enemy on the opposite side can they have hope of victory!

"Dadada." On this side, the British machine guns also opened fire violently, suppressing the opposite side. It was just an infantry battalion. The infantry division of our side pushed all the troops up and would definitely rush over!

No matter how much firepower the other party has, in short, the number of people on the other party is limited!

Before the German reinforcements arrived, we must deal with Calais and firmly defend it to create opportunities for the retreat of the expeditionary forces!

"Boom!" The mortar continued to fire at the opponent. This time, it accurately hit an opponent's machine gun fire point!

A burst of cheers suddenly broke out here, but just two seconds after the cheers, the machine gun on the opposite side began to sound again.

Obviously, at this time, the other party was also crazy, the machine gunner was dead, and the one behind him was on the top!

The machine gun here suppresses the firepower, and the machine guns on the opposite side continue to fire!

It is unwise to continue charging before suppressing the opponent's machine gun, but now Montgomery has no other choice, the most precious thing is time!

"Five minutes later, organize the second round of charge!" Montgomery said.

Looking at the convoy beside him, he remembered an idea: "Cover our car with a quilt, pour water, and rush over!"

After fighting for more than ten minutes, it seemed that the other party had no heavy firepower. Now, as long as he had a tank, he could rush up. Unfortunately, there was no such thing as this, so he could only think of other ways.

For example, cars nowadays can still make a guest appearance. He has no steel plates to increase protection, so he has to use local methods.

Montgomery is quite good at thinking.

With water added to the quilt, the bulletproof effect is still OK.

"Yes." A brigade commander next to him immediately issued an order.

Continuing to hold the telescope, Montgomery discovered a problem again. The other party was short of staff, so why did he have to think about the bridge here? On the canal next to him, you can still find a way, such as building a bridge manually!

The easiest thing is to drive the car down and it will be a bridge!

Anyway, these cars are probably not going back to the UK. Instead of leaving them to the Germans, it is better to use them yourself now!

I can't wait any longer, I immediately issued an order to organize a new attack! The Germans just set up defenses on the bridge here, and the entire city of Calais is wide!

"Teacher Commander, Commander, it's not good!" At this moment, the adjutant hurriedly ran over.

Not good? What bad news? The worst news is probably that our side cannot attack the city in time? Are you working hard now?

"Teacher, look at the left, look at our left wing!"

They were moving all the way from the right, and now, to their left, on the horizon, there were clouds of black smoke.

What is that?

There was some fog in the morning and they couldn't see too far, but just looking at the black smoke, they could guess what.

The black smoke is the exhaust gas burned by the engine. Because the other party is driving wildly, black smoke will continue to emit. Judging from the scale of the black smoke, the other party is definitely a powerful force.

Are you on your own? The French Southern Legion came to rescue him? Stop dreaming, that is impossible.

Since it is not a French army, the ones who arrived must be Germans. There are all over the mountains and fields, and they must not only be along the highway, but also on the wilderness at high speed. This means that it is not just cars, but tanks!

Almost in an instant, Montgomery judged that the German armored troops came!

During repeated battles, the German armored troops were mythical and they were invincible.

Montgomery knew that any force was flawed. No matter how powerful the German tanks were, they would have to blow up the tracks and unable to move forward when they pressed against anti-tank mines. They could block the opponent with mines.

Moreover, the military scientific researchers in the rear must be working tirelessly to study solutions, and the German tanks are not invincible.

But now, he lacks anti-tank mines and even more time to build mines. The Germans are rushing over at high speed. What should we do?

Stay here to resist and wait for our main force to arrive for reinforcements? Or?
Chapter completed!
