Predatory map of ominous birds

After the Battle of Odessa, Fafnir left the Eastern Front. He was transferred to the Western Front to join a temporary teaching unit and was deployed in France.Fafnir delivered Tiger King No. 223 to the battalion headquarters, and arrived at the French station on June 6 by train with the crew members.

As soon as he entered the garrison, he immediately tried to ask his superiors for leave, "I need to relax a little!" He brazenly asked the superior.For the sake of the Empire's No. [-] Tank Killer, he got a leave of absence.Fafnir plunged headlong into the local wine and dance halls, dreaming and drinking, spending all his allowance in just three days.In the wine near the garrison, he met his old friend Dornberger—now he is the gunner of a tiger hunting assault gun that was brought back from the front line and modified by the Tiger King. The two drank a few glasses of wine together. I was very lucky to see another friend-O'Brien, this guy has changed his career to drive a stalker and is a car captain.Fafnir and Dornberger laughed at O'Brien's "short and small dick cannon" while showing off how black and thick their respective tanks were.O'Brien retorted, mocking that Fafnir now has no car to drive and is already an eunuch in the Byzantine government.A few people had a fight, and temporarily put aside their own encounters and friends who had disappeared...

Returning from vacation, Fafnir had just returned to the barracks when he learned that their tanks were about to arrive at night.Everyone is very curious about what kind of tank will be allocated to them this time. Many people bet that it is either a tiger or a king tiger. Thousands of marks have already been invested for this reason.At night, the train stopped at a small station outside the barracks, and the unseen tanks on the wagon attracted everyone's attention.Many people sighed, and the allowances in their hands flew away.Fafnir looked at these new tanks, and saw that this thing was very similar to the Russian Stalin 2 tank. It did not adopt the staggered road wheels commonly used by German tanks, and the body was relatively low. The egg-shaped turret was different, but the cannon was still the one he was familiar with from King Tiger. The whole vehicle looked a bit smaller than King Tiger.Sure enough, when the tanks were allocated later, the officer in charge introduced: "This is a new type of e-series tank. The serial number of this tank is e50'Lynx'. It weighs 46 tons, has 900 horsepower, and can run at a speed of 50 kilometers per hour. The artillery used is still kwk43l71, and its defense is better than the King Tiger you used before." Then each team received their own e50, and Fafnir still painted a tiger skull pattern on the e50, and the car number It is still No. 233, because his troop assignment has not changed, and he is still a member of the second company of the 503rd Independent Heavy Tank Battalion.

It didn't take long to get the new tank, and I just became familiar with the operation. What is surprising is that there is a new type of equipment on this tank-the artillery height stabilizer, which greatly improves the hit rate.Fafnir also experienced for the first time what strategic bombing is!When I first arrived, the bombing just came to an end, and now it has started again during training.Fafnir watched from a distance that stations, transportation hubs, highways, factories, and even places where German troops might be stationed were bombed day and night, especially at night, when the flames were soaring.In the sky, the German fighter jets and the escorting British and American fighter jets and bombers strangled into a group. In terms of numbers, Britain and the United States clearly had an advantage.The bombers and fighter jets formed a three-dimensional defensive formation, and used their powerful self-defense firepower to drive the German fighter jets to the periphery.The German fighter jets took advantage of their speed to forcibly enter the "box" composed of bombers and fighter jets again and again, braving the powerful firepower of the bombers to attack, and from time to time, planes fell from the sky with flames.

On June 6th, the air strikes reached their climax. Their camp in Fafnir was bombed extremely intensely. Fortunately, the tanks left the camp in advance and covered themselves with cover, so there was no loss, but the soldiers suffered heavy losses, and many people were shocked to death.

In the early morning of June 6th, countless ships spread across the English Channel, and the sky was almost completely covered by British and American planes-the "Overlord" operation in Normandy began!Later in the day, Fafnir and the others received an order to immediately complete the overhaul and maintenance of the vehicle, and immediately boarded the vehicle to prepare for reinforcements in the Normandy area.And some infantry units had already arrived in Normandy yesterday night-this was the luck of the Germans, and some units just went up to change defenses.

Fafnir met one of the reinforcements a few days ago. The mental fluctuations of this man are obviously different from those of the other soldiers in this new unit—it turns out that he is a veteran of the Eastern Front. His name is Martin, but his surname is Fife. Neil didn't hear it.

Martin is a machine gunner. At the beginning of this landing battle, he and other soldiers hid in the air-raid shelter and endured the indiscriminate bombing of the bombers in the sky and the naval bombardment of the British and American ships on the sea, until the forward observers saw countless landing craft approaching quickly. Only come out to the shore to fight.The Germans used the remaining artillery to shoot at the landing craft on the sea. Each artillery would be destroyed by British and American aircraft or naval guns after almost firing a few shells, but they still achieved results.Several landing craft were hit by shells, and some sank directly. The soldiers on board jumped out desperately, but due to the heavy load on their bodies, many of them sank directly to the bottom of the sea.Some of the landing craft may have been detonated with ammunition or fuel, and exploded into a huge ball of fire. Human bodies and weapons on board flew around like celestial maidens, but more landing craft came to the beach unscathed.

Martin and other German soldiers opened fire immediately. Under his precise control, Martin's mg machine gun directly covered a landing craft with its baffle lowered—the 1200 rounds of bullets per minute instantly "cleaned" the boat. The bullets landed extremely accurately, almost none of them fell on the hull, and all of them were swept into the group of American soldiers on board, a terrible massacre!

The massacre did not end. Before the machine gun fire point was noticed by the attacking aircraft, Martin controlled the machine gun and wiped out the three landing craft. Almost a hundred American soldiers died under his gun within 2 minutes.After Martin shot and killed the American soldiers on three boats, he and the deputy shooter immediately evacuated the firepower point.Then they saw many American soldiers gathered under the breakwater and cliffs on the shore, so they struggled to climb over 200 meters of sandy beach from the other side, during which they had to avoid fire from both sides. On a reef that is at right angles to the breakwater and the cliff.Martin and the deputy shooter hid under the reef, aimed at a group of American soldiers in front and started shooting.The whip of flames was swept over and over the crowd, before finally being sent to hell by an A1 attack plane, Martin turned the jetty and bluff into a living hell - all in five minutes.Probably between 5 and 300 American soldiers ended up dead at Martin's machine gun...

Martin's mortal combat did not hold off the American landings for much time, and later in the day, the British and American allied forces broke through at all landing sites, consolidating the beachheads, and the German defenses in Normandy There is nothing left - although it caused great damage to the Allies, at least 25000 people died or died on the first day, more than 150 tanks sank directly into the water and more than 50 tanks were destroyed Destroyed at the beachhead, more than 100 landing craft were destroyed, and more than 70 aircraft were shot down while supporting the beachhead. However, there is no longer an organized German army in front of the Allied forces, and the nearest army is also a day away. , thanks to the complete destruction of the Normandy area by thousands of bombers, it seems that the end of German fascism is coming-no wonder!
