Lin Yue pretended to give his ankle a massage, picked up the collar badge symbolizing an officer, and walked forward with Leder Adenauer.
The German army has occupied this block. Some soldiers are cleaning the battlefield with guns and occupying favorable terrain to prevent the U.S. counterattack. Second Lieutenant Schmidt and a lieutenant from the 21st Armored Division used the east library as a headquarters and hung up buttons inside. Victoria town map.
Lin Yue did not go over, but got into the No. 4 tank and chatted with the driver and gunner in broken German, asking some driving questions.
In "My Commander, My Regiment", he played with the Japanese tanks captured by the expeditionary force, and also learned the skills of driving tanks, but he was just very good compared with professionals. After all, his official position was deputy commander. It is impossible to drive a Sherman tank supported by the United States onto the battlefield.
After all, he was a second lieutenant, and he was still an Allied dispatched officer who should be taken care of. Although the people accompanying him were very impatient, they still explained to him a lot of differences in the internal structure and usage of the Panzer IV tank and the Japanese tank.
Near noon, the men from the field cooking company brought food, freshly baked bread, stew, sausages, vegetable soup, coffee, and sugar cubes.
Lin Yue had a higher military rank and could get more food. He shared cigarettes, candy bars, sausages, etc. with the people in the No. 4 tank, taking the opportunity to get some information about the Tiger tank.
Second Lieutenant Schmidt and the lieutenant of the 21st Armored Division didn't say anything when they found out about this. After all, they were here to learn and had a higher degree of freedom than them.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, he was called into the headquarters. Lieutenant Schmidt told him that Major Ishida had brought the war reporters to the outside of Newey Town and was advancing along the armored force's offensive line, asking him to prepare for evacuation. Prepare.
After Germany and Japan formed an alliance, out of publicity needs, both countries would send war reporters to each other's battlefields to take photos and record the battle process. After being brought home, they would be artistically processed and widely publicized to arouse people's emotions and incite them to join the battlefield and serve for the emperor or the emperor. The result of the head of state's hard work.
The United States, Britain and other countries successfully landed in Normandy yesterday, which will inevitably start a propaganda war at the international level. We must know that in 1944, the Japanese invaders were struggling in Southeast Asia and were retreating steadily in the Pacific battlefield. Anti-war sentiment was rising domestically. If they sat idly by and ignored the war, they might lead to domestic chaos before the war was defeated.
They needed photos showing that the German army had the situation under control to prove that the front line was in good condition. The news released by the United States, Britain and other countries were all "rumors."
Lin Yue expressed his gratitude to Lieutenant Schmidt for taking care of him during the day and left the headquarters. He found a chair and sat in the middle of the street, waiting patiently for his "companion" to arrive.
Last night he looked through Abe Junpei's diary and learned about the Japanese's situation after he came to the European battlefield. The person who received Abe Junpei at that time was Ishida Hiroshi. The two were not only schoolmates but also fellow townsmen. They drank, chatted and sang folk songs that night, until The next day, Junpei Abe got on the troop carrier heading for Normandy, and D-DAY came three days later.
This is why Ishida Hiroshi volunteered to go to the front line to pick up people after hearing the news that Junpei Abe had survived.
Others may not know it, but Lin Yue knows better than anyone else that Newey's Junpei Abe is a fake.
Time passed by minute by minute.
At almost three o'clock, a barrel jeep drove into the neighborhood and parked not far from the Panzer IV tank.
With the sound of the car door opening and closing, three Japanese people got off.
The person walking at the front wore a military uniform with a striking red sun painted on his armband. The two people behind were wearing casual clothes, one was holding a camera, and the other was carrying a tripod and a tool box.
The Japanese in military uniform is naturally Abe Junpei's senior and fellow countryman Hiroshi Ishida, and the remaining two people are war correspondents and his assistants.
Lin Yue wiped the plaster on his face, got up from his chair, walked to Ishida Hao, saluted a military salute, and called "Major Ishida" in Japanese.
"Abe-kun..." Ishida Hiroshi was about to reach out to pat the junior on the shoulder and say a few words of encouragement, but when he saw the unfamiliar face under the helmet, a trace of surprise flashed across his face.
"you……"
Just after the word "you" was spoken, a gunshot rang out from the ruins of a half-collapsed building diagonally opposite.
Bang!
Red blood splashed on Lin Yue's military uniform. Ishida Hao fell down, and the blood dyed the bricks on the ground red.
Lin Yue was "scared out of his wits" and sat down on the ground, then subconsciously crawled to the left corner of the street.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
The German soldiers stationed nearby fired at the place where the gunfire rang out. The MG-42 machine gun behind the cement bag kept spitting flames, and the bullets crackled the wall and sent debris flying.
The turret of the No. 4 tank parked not far away slowly rotated, its muzzle pointed at the ruins of the building where the US snipers were hidden.
There was a bang.
A burst of flames burst out, and the decaying outer wall of the target building looked like a broken watermelon. The already precarious building collapsed inward, completely turning into a ruin composed of rubble.
Schmidt and the lieutenant of the 21st Armored Division heard the sound and ran out from the headquarters. After confirming safety, they walked to the body of Ishida Hiroshi. They looked at Second Lieutenant Abe who was hugging his "fellow" and crying with snot and tears. He didn't know what to do. What to say.
"It was me who killed him, it was me... it was my fault... Major Ishida was as kind as my brother, but now... now..."
Schmidt couldn't understand Japanese, but he could understand his mood. He reached out and patted his shoulder: "Second Lieutenant Abe, I'm sorry about this."
"Damn Americans." Lin Yue wiped away his tears with the back of his hand, looked at Ishida Hao's body and said in German: "Major Ishida, I will definitely avenge you."
When the two Japanese reporters learned that the US sniper was dead, they ran out of the bunker and looked at the dead Hiroshi Ishida with a blank look on their faces.
In order to prevent a similar situation from happening again, Schmidt strengthened the deployment of troops in the neighborhood.
Originally, Lin Yue was going to go to Caen with Ishida Hiroshi, but after this incident, he resolutely stated to the authorities that he hoped to stay on the front line to fight against the US military and help Ishida Hiroshi avenge his hatred, and finally got the support of his superiors. .
Including Private First Class Leder Adenauer and Schmidt, they all deeply regretted what happened to him. However, they did not know that Lin Zhujie was suppressing his laughter and felt very uncomfortable. The distortion of his face came more from endurance. bitter.
He had long discovered that the American sniper was not dead. However, due to the shelling of the No. 4 tank, the American sniper was hit by a falling beam and injured his legs. He lost the possibility of moving. The German soldiers did not find the American soldier when they were cleaning the battlefield. Due to the presence of snipers, that man has been hiding in the ruins.
After confirming this situation, he has been thinking about the possibility of killing Ishida Hiroshi and putting the blame on the US sniper. If Ishida Hiroshi's identity as a senior officer can be exposed, the US sniper will probably be murderous.
Of course, whether the US sniper is willing to die will be affected by the strength of his own injuries, but it doesn't matter. Even if the US sniper chooses to be a coward, he can still achieve the results he wants.
Happily, before he could use his trump card, the American sniper, who knew he was going to die, killed Major Ishida with one shot. As a result, Lin's evil plan succeeded. There was no one else on the French battlefield who could reveal his identity, and he had to be good. The death of his fellow countryman also gave him an excuse to stay on the front line and fight with the US military.
After this incident, he had a new understanding of the seemingly useless [I am an Actor LV3]. Good guy, tears and sniffles came at every turn, and Schmidt, Ryder and others did not find any flaws at all.
…
The next day, it rained.
Lin Yue followed Schmidt's troops and continued to advance.
What the Germans didn't expect was that the American soldiers, who were known to be afraid of death, fought tenaciously this time and did not give up on Newey just because the front line was cut and scattered. The two sides launched fierce battles around several areas, and the 21st The Armored Division didn't know what happened. After investing half a battalion of troops in advance, no reinforcements were given. There were rumors that they were scared back to their hometown by US military planes.
In order to complete the mission as quickly as possible, the 711th Division not only deployed combatants but also sent several political and warfare officers to roam various neighborhoods to perform propaganda missions to undermine the confidence of US soldiers.
Lin Yue was not interested in the tug-of-war between the US Army and the German Army in Newey. His attention was now focused on the corner in front of the residential house that was half destroyed by the shelling of the Weasel III destroyer yesterday.
A group of U.S. soldiers are advancing in the rain.
ps: I can’t add more updates when I write this copy, not to mention that my chapters have more words than others. I'm not a fan of World War II history. I have a lot of background information to look up, and I have to add settings myself. It's very difficult to write, and I keep losing subscriptions every day.
