Chapter 2575 Zero Deaths

The 150-meter-long Ludendorff Bridge was built in the middle of World War I. The bridge was built with future tasks in mind. Once threatened, the German army can easily blow up the entire bridge to prevent the opponent from entering Germany.

The information Lei Zhen got was incomplete. The Ludendorff Bridge was not the only bridge within a 50-kilometer radius, but the only surviving bridge within a full 350-kilometer radius.

When the German engineers ignited the fuse, Lei Zhen had already reached the banks of the Rhine.

The armored command vehicle is not equipped with artillery and cannot shoot directly at the opposite bank.

However, at the same time as Lei Zhen, there were more than 9 Tiger tanks from the 88th Armored Division. These Tiger tanks were equipped with [-]mm tank guns, which could pose a fatal threat to the German firepower on the other side. At the time of the search, the scout troops who arrived in advance had already passed the bridge and launched an attack on the opposite bank.

"At all costs, the bridge must be taken down!" Lei Zhen was burning with anxiety. The significance of the Ludendorff Bridge now goes beyond the bridge itself.

When the Allied forces on the western front launched their offensive, the Russian army commanded by Marshal Zhukov on the northern front was less than 40 kilometers away from Berlin. Under normal circumstances, it was less than an hour's drive for the T34 tanks equipped by the Russian army.

Compared with the Allied forces on the Western Front, the Allied Forces on the Northern Front pose a greater threat to Berlin. The most elite SS troops in Germany are concentrated on the Northern and Eastern Fronts. The Western Front is relatively easy, and the resistance of the German army is not strong. .

Still the same sentence, don't be afraid of god-like opponents, but be afraid of pig-like teammates.

"Everything is normal, no casualties!" Cargill's voice was relaxed from the heart.

Before the smoke from the grenade cleared, Qi Ning rushed into the door.

After the explosion on the second floor, there was almost no sound, it was dead silent.

On the second floor are also four German soldiers, one shooter, two deputy shooters, and one officer.

The reason for the emphasis on "personally captured" is because Qi Ning's father also participated in the First World War as a member of the Southern African Expeditionary Force.

Qi Ning didn't have time to mourn, so he took off a smoke bomb and threw it forward.

In the previous bombing by the air force, the high slope became the top priority. At least [-] aerial bombs fell on this high slope with an area of ​​only a hundred square meters. Overwhelmed, no one was spared.

The German army was not without resistance. On both sides of the Ludendorff Bridge, there were two two-story towers with a height of more than ten meters. These two towers became the strongest bunkers for the German army.

Offensive grenades are gone.

When the offensive grenade was thrown into the first floor, sporadic wailing could still be heard.

"Attack, attack, send reconnaissance tanks, the Germans lack anti-tank weapons!" Tony Anderson put all his eggs in one basket. The reconnaissance tanks are all light tanks, and their defense is similar to that of armored vehicles. If there are anti-tank weapons on the opposite side, they must suffer heavy losses.

Qi Ning rushed halfway through, and when he passed by Thomas, Thomas was not dead yet, he was in a dying state.

The bombers had too many scruples to carry out a direct attack on the tower.

The purpose of this grenade is not to kill people, but to make the opponent lose the ability to resist. Since the visual cells of the human eye have a picture-holding effect, it takes at least 5 to 10 seconds to restore vision. If you don't wear earmuffs, such a loud noise is enough To stun people.

bang——

The intensive shooting of dozens of tanks really caused great trouble to the machine gunners in the tower.

The 1800 steel balls used to defend the grenade exploded in an instant, and people with intensive phobia could not look directly at the scene after the grenade exploded.

In fact, on the real battlefield, if it is a frontal battle, the role that snipers can play is extremely limited.

It is only necessary to cover the tower and shoot, even if the tower cannot be knocked down, the machine gunner in the tower must be suppressed.

When Qi Ning was a child, he heard his father tell about his experience of fighting in Europe countless times.

Without giving Thomas a chance, Qi Ning raised the assault rifle in his hand, fired a short rapid fire, and sent Thomas directly to see God.

Brakdi is very smart. He arranged the only two Maxims on the tower. If the allies rush to the bridge, then the 150 meters will become the life and death line of the allies.

Qi Ning didn't have time to take the prisoners. There were German machine gunners on the second floor. They killed the remaining two German soldiers with two quick shots, and then touched the grenade with their backhand.

Faster than a light tank is the Scout.

The tower is also part of the bridge body. In order to avoid damage to the bridge body, the tower was not attacked in the previous air force bombing.

Qining only glanced at the stairs before going downstairs. When he rounded the corner of the stairs, he subconsciously suppressed vomiting.

Since its invention in the last century, Maxim has almost single-handedly changed the mode of warfare, and its suppression effect is second to none. Parker only fired one shot, but was shot continuously by Maxim, and there was no chance to fight back. .

This sentence is also the only German sentence that Qi Ning can speak.

There were a total of four German soldiers scattered across the city. Two were behind the sofa, one was in the corner, and the last was on the stairs.

Don't even think about it.

Scouts carry limited supplies, and smoke grenades are essential. In addition to offensive grenades, they also carry defensive grenades. Now there is only one defensive grenade left on Qining.

The German troops in the tower were unprepared for the offensive grenade. The blinding light and the deafening shock caused the German soldiers in the tower to cry out in pain.

The three German soldiers were still howling, and they couldn't hear other sounds at all. The narrow room doubled the power of the offensive grenade. The remaining three German soldiers, all holding their heads in their hands, rolled and wailed on the ground.

"Bazooka, tank guns, direct-firing guns—don't worry about the guns, cover at full speed—" Lei Zhen was also irritable, with only two Maxims, the threat was actually not that great.

Now Qi Ning is also qualified to tell the children about his experience in the future.

Tank players have no scruples. At a distance of more than 100 meters, it is no problem to hit towers regardless of where to point.

Qi Ning was not relentless, and knocked down the only German soldier who could raise his gun with three bursts, and at the same time shouted: "Drop your weapon!"

"No, the current is too fast, we can't swim through—" Qining was sober.

The effect of the smoke bombs is still very good. When five smoke bombs are thrown together, the entire bridge deck is shrouded in smoke. It is really invisible.

Before the smoke from the explosive explosion cleared, the scouts led by Qi Ning had rushed onto the bridge. They were more urgent than Lei Zhen and Tony Anderson.

The scouts have practiced this kind of door breaking operation countless times, and they will definitely not make mistakes.

Maxim's rate of fire is only 1 rounds per minute.

The power of the python military pistol is huge. At a distance of less than five meters, the huge kinetic energy of the 9mm bullet directly knocked a German soldier's helmet into the air. The second bullet hit the head accurately, and the visual effect was like smashing it with a hammer. Watermelon is almost the same, the scene is bright and bloody.

The moment Qining found Thomas, Thomas also raised the pistol in his hand.

"I'll cover—" The sniper Parker of the unit raised his precision rifle, trying to suppress the machine gunner in the opposite tower.

At a distance of more than 100 meters, the precision rifle has almost no advantage against Maxim.

Qi Ning is not in a hurry to clean up the battlefield, he already has a Luger pistol that he personally captured.

Parker was even more embarrassed. As a sniper, he rarely faced hand-to-hand combat scenes and carried fewer grenades.

Thanks to the Allied Forces for the temporary training of the officers and soldiers of the expeditionary force in the past winter.

After the violent explosion, Qi Ning hid at the stairs, and could feel the strong impact, as well as the steel balls scattered on the wall, and the intensive strafing sound.

Offensive grenades rely on soft kills to disable the enemy's ability to resist.

When attacking, the effect of smoke grenades is much greater than that of offensive grenades.

Qi Ning did not speak, took a deep breath, calmed down, signaled Cargill and the other two scouts to attack the opposite tower, and led Parker to the left and right to control the only tower entrance.

On the beach on the other side of the river, the German army also built more than a dozen defensive positions. About 100 meters away from the opposite bank, there is a high slope as high as 80 meters. The threat of this hillside has been lifted for the time being.

Don't watch the movies where snipers appear and disappear, killing all directions.

boom boom boom boom-

There is a mature process for dealing with snipers in the Southern African Army.

"Sir, we can swim through the water—" Kargil, who was from the Ottoman Republic, was knocked out of his head by the bullet, and his cheek was cut by a stray bullet, and blood flowed horizontally.

The 9th Armored Division can only dispatch light tanks. The "Lion" type and "Tiger" type with a total combat weight of more than 50 tons need not be thought about. No one can be sure. After the bridge structure is destroyed, once " Will the whole bridge collapse in an instant if you go up the bridge in the lion" and "tiger" styles?

This scene is too easy to cause psychological discomfort.

"Kajill, Kajill——" Qi Ning asked about the situation in the opposite tower. After hearing Kajill's voice, Qi Ning did not take it lightly: "—how is the situation on your side?"

"Fat tree oil——" Cargill kicked Thomas' body into the river, and without hesitation, several people rushed across the bridge with the help of smoke and came directly to the tower.

At this time, don't even think about killing all the machine gunners in the tower.

The rainstorm pear blossom needle in Tangmen in the novel may be a fantasy, but the steel balls to defend against grenades are real.

Parker put the precision rifle on his back, took out a python military pistol, and took out an offensive grenade, and raised his head to signal to Qining.

A string of bullets hit the steel beam next to Qi Ning. Qi Ning lay down in time and was not hit. A scout next to him was hit by more than ten bullets, and his whole body was shattered. The scene was horrible.

Qining replaced the assault rifle in his hand with a new magazine, nodded to Parker, raised the assault rifle and fired at the door bolt, and kicked the door open with his kick.

When crossing at this time, it doesn't matter whether the water is fast or not. The icy river water and the rampaging ice in the river can pose a fatal threat to the scouts.

The 300-gram offensive grenade has a killing range of 15 to 30 meters, can produce a strong flash equivalent to about 800 million candles, and a huge noise of about 170 decibels.

Qi Ning still waited for a few seconds before slowly going upstairs.

boom--

The smoke bombs of the scouts also played a huge role, and finally rushed across the bridge and approached the tower.

Parker didn't go up at all. Watching Qining come down, he stuffed the pistol into the holster on his chest, rushed to the wall in three steps and two steps, and picked up a Luger pistol that was standard in the German army.

Bah—— bah——

Aim?

As a sniper, his shooting skills are better than that of Qi Ning. The first shot seeks to hit the target, making the target lose the ability to resist, and the last two shots strive to kill, without giving the opponent any chance.

Parker, who followed Qi Ning into the room, also shot.

Defensive grenade is pure hard damage, with a weight of 500 grams, it can release 1800 steel balls after explosion.

As a railway bridge, the Ludendorff Bridge has a bridge deck width of less than ten meters. After tanks rush onto the bridge deck, there is almost no room to hide. Only an 88mm anti-tank gun on the opposite side can completely block the entire bridge deck.

The weather in March is warm and cold, and the Rhine River has just been unsealed. A large number of ice blocks that have not completely melted in the river channel, mixed with the melted snow from the Alps, flow down the river.

If the Southern African Expeditionary Force finds a local sniper on the battlefield, the first reaction is not to send a sniper to counter it, but to use artillery to cover it with firepower. Even if the sniper cannot be killed directly, the smoke and dust aroused by the shell will hinder The sight of the sniper will not be light infantry, but tanks and armored vehicles will be encircled and suppressed.

As soon as Qi Ning and the six scouts under his command rushed onto the bridge, they were frantically fired upon by two Maxim machine guns on the opposite bank.

All the corpses were a mass of blood and flesh. A German soldier who was facing Jining had no visible shape on his face, almost like a honeycomb.

Although it has gone through two world wars, for the soldiers of the Southern African Expeditionary Force, the Ruger pistol is still the most meaningful souvenir.

The moment Qi Ning kicked the door, Parker pulled out the latch of the offensive grenade, and before throwing it out, he shook his hand, shouted "Baozi, it's hot!", and then threw the grenade in.

ding ding ding-

There must be no time to deal with the wound at this time, let's rush over first.

"I'll call one, two, three, and throw smoke bombs together." Qi Ning took no chances, and the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road. Now is the time to compete for courage.

Qi Ning was not picky, walked up the stairs two steps, and let the grenade be thrown out.

The Southern African Expeditionary Force and the Anglo-American Allied Forces launched an attack almost at the same time. When the paratroopers of the British and American Allied Forces were completely surrounded, the Southern African Expeditionary Force became the only bright spot of the Allied Forces on the Western Front. If the Ludendorff Bridge could not be captured in time, then the Allied Forces on the Western Front The offense will be in trouble, which neither Lei Zhen nor Tony Anderson can accept.

Qi Ning still doesn't know that during the process of capturing the Ludendorff Bridge by the Southern African Expeditionary Force, none of the officers and soldiers of the Expeditionary Force were killed. This is definitely a miracle in World War II.

Whether it is a miracle depends entirely on the background of the peers.

In the case of thousands of casualties of the British and American coalition forces, the successful breakthrough of the Southern African Expeditionary Force to the Rhine River is indeed worthy of special mention.

Of course, the battle is not over yet, and it's not time to celebrate.
