Chapter 919 Airborne (3)
As soon as the green light lit up, the soldiers jumped down from the shaking transport plane one after another. .
As soon as Zhang Chi jumped out of the transport plane, he felt a loud rush of heat coming from behind... The transport plane he was riding on had been hit by a shell and caught fire. Fortunately, it had not exploded yet, otherwise he would not know how many pieces of debris would shoot towards Zhang Chi.
However, this was just one of the transport planes. Soon Zhang Chi discovered that the head and feet were above his head and below... There were black fogs of anti-aircraft guns exploded everywhere, and the air was full of transport planes hit and fell downwards. Black smoke emanated from their tails, and the engine made a harsh and ugly roar, just like a dying monster making the last cry of despair, and then fell to the ground and turned into a fireball.
This is not the most terrifying thing, after all, the target of the anti-aircraft gun is still the transport plane.
What's worse is those anti-aircraft machine guns, with lines of light and water vapor, like scythes waving by the god of death. They easily took away the lives of warriors wherever they went. The soldiers hanging on the parachute had no ability to fight back and could only continue to slowly descend with the parachute... until they were down to the ground.
Of course, Zhang Chi could feel this feeling, because at this time he was hanging on the parapet rope and the bullet flew past him "swoosh".
At this time, Zhang Chi even had the urge to cut off the parachute rope and jump down, because he wanted to jump, and the pressure that these bullets and the pressure that could be shot into sieve at any time were even more scary.
Fortunately, the bullet only made a few holes in the parachute... Zhang Chi could feel the impact of the bullet breaking through the parachute from the parachute from the parachute. Then, because the parachute was uneven and damaged, the speed of the descent increased quickly.
From this point of view, Zhang Chi has achieved his wish. Moreover, the speed has also enabled him to successfully avoid more bullets.
The disadvantage is that if the ground is below, Zhang Chi will likely suffer too much force and fall or even die due to damage to the parachute.
However, Zhang Chi was very lucky. It was not the ground below but the "flood area". So with a "bang", Zhang Chi fell into the sea...
The water in the "floodplane" is several meters deep, which obviously saved Zhang Chi's life.
The first thing Zhang Chi did was to pull out the military sting on his waist and cut the parapet rope. After climbing up a few times, he would breathe fresh air in big mouthfuls... He wasn't ready just now, but suddenly it fell into the water, which really made him choke a few times.
At the same time, Zhang Chi looked around... He had to make full use of any time, because this determined the fate of the New Division and the Zoafu Corps.
The battle situation was indeed as he thought. The German army did not have much firepower in the "floodplane". Otherwise, the soldiers who fell from the sky into the water would probably continue the predicament he had just been in the air.
"General!" After a while, Zhang Qingyu and several other guards gathered next to Zhang Chi.
"Go ashore first!" Zhang Chi ordered.
"yes!"
The guards responded and protected Zhang Chi to swim towards the side shore.
It should be said that the New Division was actually in a state of losing command at this time. The main reason was that there was a parachuting and swimming ashore, and there were several levels of wind at this time, which could easily blow the officers away from their troops.
If it is a conventional parachute battle, there should be a process of gathering and building. But this parachute battle is extraordinary. They start fighting almost as soon as they land... In fact, the airborne point is the battlefield, and the battle has already begun before they land.
This prevents the soldiers of the Expeditionary Force from assembling, so a considerable number of troops were unable to find the soldiers, and the soldiers could not find the officials.
But even so, the soldiers of the Expeditionary Force spontaneously organized the battle.
It doesn’t matter if the soldier cannot find an official. The military rank shall prevail. Whoever has a higher military rank will be subject to the command of whoever has the higher military rank.
It doesn’t matter if the officer cannot find the soldiers. The soldiers around him are his own soldiers.
So the Expeditionary Force quickly organized an orderly attack, as Zhang Chi hoped, the troops swam on both sides of the "floodpan" and then launched an attack along the shore towards the German defense line.
This is the so-called "top and bottom are united". If Zhang Chi does not have such a force, no matter how good his tactics or plans are, he may not be able to implement them easily.
The first thing Zhang Chi did after he got ashore was to find a safe place to set up a radio station. At this time, command of the troops was much more important than going to the battlefield to fight.
"How is the situation?" After connecting with fellow villagers, Zhang Chi asked.
"Everything goes well!" The fellow villager replied: "The enemy's firepower is not strong, perhaps because he is not prepared, so he asks for instructions!"
"Break through quickly!" Zhang Chi ordered.
Zhang Chi would never wait until the Germans reacted and turned the gun, so this was the time to launch a "blitzkrieg".
"Yes!" The fellow villager responded.
Then there was a loud gunfire, and two expeditionary troops rushed towards the two beaches in Normandy like tigers.
The German troops on the beaches of "Utah" and "Golden Beach" never expected that the enemy would parachute to the "floodpan"... They had indeed seen enemy transport aircraft flying over long ago, and they also knew that those were airborne troops. They all thought that these airborne troops should have landed twenty kilometers behind, because there was no place to "reach" near the beach, so they were very confident in this, so they were not prepared at all.
It was not until piles of parachutes like dandelions opened in the sky that the Germans exclaimed: "God, they actually landed behind us!"
After waking up, they hurriedly dispatched personnel to defend the rear.
But at this time, he was willing but not able to do it... because at the same time, the Zoafu army launched a fierce attack in front of them.
Although the firepower of the Zoafu army was not very good, they all held scimitars. Once they were allowed to rush into the formation, they would slash and kill them, causing great casualties and chaos. Even until then, the German army was still fighting with the "barbarians"... The German army called Zoafu soldiers "barbarians".
In this case, they could only barely draw a small part of their troops back to intercept them.
"Utah" Beach was transferred two companies in time, while "Golden Beach" only had time to draw a row...
"Golden Beach" only drew so few troops because the soldiers of the Zoafu Corps even rushed into the German command center... German officers often came to the front line to command, while the Zoafu Corps lurked in front of the defense line. Major General Wagner, the commander of the "Golden Beach", was only more than fifty meters away from the Zoafu Corps.
