The reason is simple.
Only by climbing to the roof can the line of sight be parallel to the bridge ramp, and only in this way can an effective attack on the bunker be launched.
After Lu Li accepted the mission and received a small amount of supplies, he began to think about how to cross the streets safely.
If he was just acting alone, he could take advantage of his bloodline and activate stealth mode.
But with two partners around him, Lu Li had to act normal.
"Back along the hedge and once you are clear of the north bank of the bridge, cross the north ramp."
After a moment of silence, Lu Li stared at Munch and warned, "Be sure to stay vigilant and protect yourself."
Marksman Henry only joined the team midway. Although we have gone through hardships together, his status in Lu Li's heart is indeed not as good as that of Monk.
Winning money like crazy in the camp - almost being rolled out of the cabin during the flight - fighting German soldiers after landing - anti-killing team - crossing the road of death - now
Unknowingly, Lu Li had taken care of this guy all the way. Subconsciously, he hoped that Private Monk could survive. Even if he was captured in the end, he would not die under the enemy's cold gunfire or artillery fire.
"Boss, how many lives do I owe you?" Munch adjusted his helmet, seemed to have thought of something, and reminded: "The first attack on the road does not count. After all, the loot belongs to you."
This guy put on a philistine look when Lu Li was inciting him, causing him to instantly act up. He couldn't help laughing and scolding: "Get out of here and lead the way."
"Understood, sir." Monk replied angrily.
Watching the interaction between the two, Henry remained silent. He thought of the correspondent Jerry who was sitting with him. The two had formed a friendship on the North African battlefield. They had made an appointment when they were airborne. After the battle, they would go to Arnhem together. Have fun at the bar.
Now there is only one person left.
"Man, let's move forward." Lu Li turned around and patted Henry on the shoulder, "Kill a few more Germans to avenge Jerry."
The sound of footsteps rustled, and everything was so peaceful. Some citizens who were far away from the bridge were still in sleep and were not awakened by the scattered gunfire.
However, some citizens were unable to sleep, such as Miss Juliana, who lived in the school building. The sudden intrusion of a group of British soldiers frightened her.
Almost everyone in this group was injured. The leader claimed to be a captain and wanted to temporarily live in this school.
The tone was strong.
It's not so much a discussion as a notification. After all, they are wearing combat uniforms and holding various types of weapons.
Of course, as a Dutchwoman, Miss Juliana was very willing to provide help to the Allied forces. When she saw someone was injured, she took the initiative to get a pot of hot water and asked Captain McKay if he needed food or asked a doctor to see him. look.
"Ma'am, please go somewhere else for a while. This place is about to become a battlefield." Captain McKay took out a pistol and handed it over, saying with some concern: "It was seized from the Germans. Use it for self-defense."
"By the way, I suggest you hide on Eusebius Country Avenue. Are there any relatives there?"
McKay was very enthusiastic towards the beautiful lady and did not want her to be affected by the war.
"Yes...but I hope to stay here and do what I can, such as taking care of wounded soldiers. I have received relevant training in the hospital."
After calming down, Juliana resolves to answer Prince Bernhard's call to help her allies.
"Are you sure?"
The medical soldier's expression was filled with joy. He could not take care of so many soldiers by himself.
Not counting the missing, there are still nine people left in this advance team, most of whom are wounded. As the war intensifies, the future can almost be foreseen——
The medical personnel accompanying the army will race against time to save the soldiers' lives from the hands of death.
"That's right." Juliana nodded and said to Captain McKay: "I insist on staying."
"Then you go to the school building at the back and come back later."
As a commander, McKay naturally knew the strategic value of this school. He made up his mind to stay here regardless of whether the main force came or not, and destroy the bunker by the way.
After watching the female school janitor leave, the captain turned to look at the big man Miller: "Sergeant, can that PIAT still be used normally?"
"Okay, but there are not many armor-piercing bullets left. There are only three left."
Miller couldn't help but worry when he thought about the tedious operation process and extremely unstable shooting trajectory of the rocket launcher.
At the same time, a man's figure appeared in everyone's minds: Staff Sergeant Lu Li.
This gentleman from the East has proved by facts that he is proficient in this art and can make every mistake without fail.
At this moment, Lu Li, who was being watched by nine men at the same time, was moving towards the school. The three of them were moving at a not too slow pace, and they had already bypassed the north ramp in just five minutes.
"Run, there are no enemies around here."
"We must arrive at the school before half past eight and enter the position."
After observing the situation around him, Lu Li whispered, then took the lead and started running.
Henry followed quickly without hesitation, because in his opinion, this officer was as accurate as a clock and never made any mistakes.
Soon, Munch began to regret that the canned food was bumping up and down in the marching bag, which made him miserable. But Lu Li once said that it would be difficult for the Second Battalion to get supplies in the next few days.
"Boss, can you help share some of the burden?" Monk huffed and began to unload the equipment before he could reply: "The machine gun bullets are too heavy, at least thirty pounds."
Lu Li, who was carrying a rocket launcher, a marching bag, a flamethrower and other supplies, always walked steadily.
Although it was a bit offensive to describe him like this, Henry felt that he was really like the livestock in the village, powerful and tireless.
Frankly speaking, Lu Li didn't know where his limit was. After taking the bullet belt with one hand, he continued to run at the front to lead the way.
In order not to arouse suspicion, he even deliberately breathed faster, but he didn't know that the shooter Henry was looking at him with the eyes of an animal.
"Sir."
"Ha...what's wrong?"
"It's okay. Do you need my help carrying something? For example, a rocket launcher."
As a sniper, Henry is the easiest among the three, with only firearms, ammunition and a marching bag.
"Need not."
Under such intense running conditions, it took the three of them only nine minutes to reach their destination.
Eight twenty-six.
Captain McKay led his men to remove the glass windows and looked out carefully.
Due to insufficient strength, no one realized that German snipers had sneaked into the vicinity. They hid carefully and waited patiently for daybreak or for the British to launch flares.
"There is light coming from over there, it seems that the backup force has arrived."
After speaking, McKay looked at his watch and felt a little conflicted. He wanted to get in touch with the main force, but he was worried that after leaving, this excellent shooting point would be captured by the enemy.
At this time, the person in charge of security downstairs shouted: "The sergeant is back!"
