There is a saying that "a thousand cups of wine will be too little when you meet a close friend."
For things like drinking, it is easy to drink too much when a group of people are chatting and spanking. The more you drink, the more you get in the mood. The more you get in the mood, the more you want to drink more. Moreover, many people even if they are already drunk, will insist on saying that they are not drunk. If you don't let them drink, they will drink too much. I'm still anxious with you.
Sergeant Richard and his men were in this state now.
Originally, two bottles of red wine were shared among seven people, which was about four taels per person. Moreover, the alcohol content of red wine was low, which would not only not reduce combat efficiency, but might also improve it.
However, a group of people wandered away while drinking. Lin Yue took out the vodka, poured himself a glass, put the bottle back, picked up the glass and said: "To the emperor, to the head of state, to those big-assed French girls. "
Sergeant Richard and his soldiers looked at the empty lunch boxes in their hands, picked up the red wine bottles thrown on the ground and poured them out.
Not a drop is left.
What a fart!
Ryder handed over the lunch box with a smile and watched as Lin Yue poured him a pound or so. He also said a few words in Russian according to the occasion, which were the words that German soldiers used to greet Dalin's family during the Battle of Dalingrad.
The two of them touched each other with their respective lunch boxes.
"Wait a minute, Second Lieutenant Abe, why aren't we there?" Sergeant Richard quit.
Lin Yue said: "You have a mission, you can't drink anymore, otherwise you will get drunk, and I am different from Ryder."
Sergeant Richard said: "I'm not drunk, come on, come on, come on."
The people nearby also started to boo, asking Lin Yue to pour them some more. They also said that three American soldiers came to this inhospitable place in just a few days. The whole battle ended in less than two minutes, and the rest They had been playing in the sand pit all the time and had a lot of fun.
Lin Yue said: "Then don't blame me if something goes wrong."
Sergeant Richard said, "It's not your fault."
Lin Yue took out his hand from the bag and gave it away with the bottle of vodka.
Sergeant Richard happily took the bottle, poured himself a few ounces, passed the bottle to the remaining three people to share, and then raised the lunch box.
"Long live Germany, long live victory."
Several people touched the lunch boxes and took a big sip.
After that, Lin Yue chatted with them about the deployment of German troops.
He checked some information related to the film before accepting the mission, but the things on the Internet are too general, and articles written by self-media people are inevitably biased. There may be many errors in the information he has. As a front-line veteran, Sergeant Richard , naturally knows more things than Engineer Ryder.
Because they got to know each other well and drank wine, Sergeant Richard's people were less wary of the two of them. Lin Yue told them about the Japanese army------he was very good at this. After all, in "My "My regiment, Commander," has been fighting with the Japanese for several years. They told Lin Yue about the German army. They were proud of the blitzkrieg of Poland and Belgium and swept across Europe. They were frustrated, such as the Battle of Dalingrad on the Eastern Front and the Battle of El Alamein in North Africa. , and later even talked about the butt issues of the Wehrmacht and the SS.
After drinking for more than an hour, Lin Yue suddenly showed a strong interest in the MG-42 machine gun when he saw several people were dizzy and eighty to ninety percent drunk.
Without thinking, Richard personally demonstrated and taught him step by step how to use the MG-42 machine gun.
When it was almost two o'clock, Lin Yue used the excuse of being dizzy after drinking too much and ran to the sleeping bag behind the sand pit for a lunch break.
Richard wanted to lead his men to continue to widen the trench, but after picking up the shovel a few times, he felt dizzy and weak. After holding on for a while, he found that he couldn't work, so he told the second-class soldier who had drunk the least to pay attention to the movements around him, leaning on the sand. Sit down and rest.
He didn't take a break, and the remaining three German soldiers also sneaked behind and closed their eyes to sleep.
The private wanted to be loyal to his duty and stay awake, but no matter how much he slapped his face and twisted his nose, he still couldn't control the rising dizziness. He lay behind the MG-42 machine gun and yawned again and again, falling into a state of half-asleep and half-awake.
Ryder had gone to bed long ago and slept soundly. He dreamed that he was back home, his mother cooked delicious roast chicken for him, and Lena from the bakery at the end of the street became his wife. The bulging belly meant that She was carrying her own child inside.
He was very happy, very happy, and the room was filled with happiness and warmth. However, at this moment, a gunshot broke his sweet dream, and the door was knocked open by a group of barbarians. Soviet soldiers wearing mink hats and long windbreakers The soldiers broke into the room, raised their Bobosha submachine guns, and beat his mother and wife into sieves.
"Ryder, Ryder..." A voice was ethereal but real, waking him up from his grief.
Dream!
It turned out to be a dream.
"Wake up, wake up quickly, the US military is coming."
The word "U.S. Army" startled Ryder. His sleepiness and drunkenness were mostly gone at once. He quickly opened his eyes and looked at Lin Yue, grabbed his hand and asked, "How many people are there?"
"About one class."
Ryder breathed a sigh of relief. If there were only a squad of US airborne troops, it would be difficult for them to pose a threat to them occupying a favorable terrain, not to mention that Sergeant Richard also had an MG-42 machine gun in his hand.
"What are you doing standing still? Let's go. If you don't go, you will die." Lin Yue gave him a kick.
Ryder got up from the ground and looked forward. Sergeant Richard was sleeping like a dead pig. Several other people were hiding somewhere. The only private who was at the combat post was still in a daze. Like a lost soul.
"If something happens, get up, get up quickly."
Ryder ran over and shook Sergeant Richard, but it was of no use.
He found three other people in the sand pit at the back. They were also sleeping soundly. Only the private lying next to the MG-42 machine gun responded to his reminder in a daze, but it looked like he could only have 50% of his usual combat effectiveness. Not bad.
"Let's go." Lin Yue threw him the MP40 submachine gun that fell on the ground, picked up his Mauser 98K, and dragged him outside.
"them……"
"What are they? You can't even stand still and why do you care about them? If you want to wait here to die, it's up to you. I have to go anyway."
When Ryder heard this, he lost his temper and followed Lin Yue stumbling towards the forest area behind the radar station.
…
When the two of them escaped with only their backs visible, Captain Miller's team was holding a pre-war meeting behind the woods on the edge of the radar station.
When dealing with weapons such as the MG-42 machine gun on flat terrain, a common method for lightly armed infantry is to attack on multiple fronts, putting pressure on the machine gunner while maximizing the consumption of machine gun bullets, forcing the enemy to change the ammunition chain, and capture Seize the opportunity to launch a fatal blow.
When Captain Miller asked who was running to the left, no one said anything, because everyone knew that running to the left was the most dangerous.
Finally, sniper Jackson expressed his willingness to take over the mission.
Miller didn't object, not because he wanted someone to die, but because among them, only Sniper Jackson was left-handed.
People who are accustomed to using their right hands to charge forward with a gun can suppress fire very naturally if the target is on the left or in the middle. If the target is on the right, it will be difficult to hold the gun and shoot while moving. But if you switch to a left-handed person, it will not be possible. Same.
The plan was finalized, with Jew Melly running on the right, sniper Jackson running on the left, and Captain Miller in the centre. Behind them are the four people responsible for covering--Love Capazzo, machine gunner Lebin, Sergeant Horvat, medic Wade, and technical corporal Urban who are responsible for taking care of the equipment.
"let's go."
Following Captain Miller's order, seven men carrying only weapons rushed out of the woods and ran towards the forward radar station.
There was an MG-42 machine gun behind the bunker made of cement bags, and the dark muzzle was clearly visible. However, Miller and others felt something was wrong as they ran, because they were less than 200 meters away from the enemy's defense line, but they did not see the enemy firing. .
It wasn't until we entered the 100-meter range that we saw groups of flames emerging. The bullets hit the ground with a popping sound and sand flying around... It was just a popping sound and sand flying around, because there was no accuracy at all.
When did the German army become so good?
Thoughts returned, doubts returned. Without stopping, they quickly bypassed the barbed wire fence, jumped into the trench in front of the machine gun position, and threw several grenades towards the opposite side.
Boom, boom, boom~
Da da da da da…
A few grenades and sporadic gunfire.
It's over, the battle is over like this?
Technical Corporal Urban, who was holding the scope of the Springfield sniper rifle as a telescope, was confused. The pre-war meeting gave him the feeling of being solemn, depressing, and dangerous, but Captain Miller and his men rushed out and it was done with three strikes, five strikes, and two divides. The German soldiers stationed at the radar station, is this too simple?
"It's okay, come on, Urban."
Hearing Captain Miller's shout, Urban ran over carrying the package.
A total of three people died on the German side. Capazzo and Jackson were pointing guns at the two prisoners in the trench who looked confused.
"Didn't the Germans eat?" Laibin held the Browning BAR with a look of disdain. This battle was so easy that he felt an indescribable sense of separation when he remembered what happened at Omaha Beach a few days ago. .
Military doctor Wade jumped into the sand pit and sniffed at the two prisoners with his nose raised.
"Drinking, they drank."
"Are these Germans here for vacation?" Capazzo patted Urban on the shoulder: "Ask them where they hid the wine and if they still have it. Give us a bottle too."
At this time, Horvat looked at Captain Miller, who was returning from a patrol: "What to do with these two people? Have they been killed?"
You must know that their mission this time is to rescue Private Ryan, and it is impossible to take the prisoners on the road.
Captain Miller did not answer the question: "Ask them both to help dig the graves of the fallen paratroopers over there in the woods."
Urban walked over and repeated the above words in German. Melly didn't wait for them to answer, and walked out of the position with a gun on a private.
…
At the same time, Lin Yue handed the binoculars to Ryder and said with a mixture of sadness and anger: "The Yankees came at the right time. I shouldn't have let Sergeant Richard drink. It's my fault. It's all my fault."
Ryder comforted him: "Lieutenant, don't be sad. It's not your fault. Those people drank too much. It was alcohol addiction that killed them."
Lin Yue shook his head and walked to a big tree: "Thank you for your comfort. Now, please let me be quiet."
Ryder sighed, thinking that he was really a responsible person. Unfortunately, he had a bad fate. Within two days of arriving in Normandy, he caught up with the Allied invasion. He finally escaped to the town of Newey. As a result, his good friend was killed by the U.S. Army. The snipers killed them. I just met some friends I met today, and three of them died with their faces turned upside down. The remaining two were captured by the US military. God is really unfair.
Lin Yue didn't know what Ryder was thinking. Over there, the two surviving privates were digging a hole, while here he was squatting under a big tree, counting wildly on his fingers.
"One, two, three, four, five..."
