Alfred, 21 years old, is a non-commissioned officer who has just returned from the Russian battlefield. He is quite experienced in street fighting. He is currently sitting on the freight train heading to Arnhem and waiting——

Not long ago, Alfred was told that he and his squad would be re-equipped.

Around ten o'clock, when the train slowed down and pulled into the station, and the doors opened, the group of soldiers were surprised to find that Arnhem Station was in chaos, and teams from all kinds of organizations had lined up and left in an orderly manner.

"Sir, where are we going to fight and where is the target? I have never been to Arnhem, and I have never even heard of it." A soldier asked in a low voice.

However, Alfred had never been to the Western Front either, so he could only shake his head and continue to smoke a dull cigarette.

After half a cigarette, a major came over and told them that they did not need to report to the command post in the city. After receiving ammunition supplies, they went directly to attack the target.

Soon, this experienced squad went from being unarmed to almost armed to the teeth: combat uniforms, helmets, machine guns, carbines, grenades, and several anti-tank missile launchers.

"Sir." Alfred adjusted his equipment and said hesitantly: "Why is the red-roofed house on this map so big?"

"That's a school. It's been occupied by British soldiers. I want you to take it back."

Upon hearing this, Alfred saluted, immediately turned around, and led his squad to march towards the goal.

At the same time, fierce street fighting broke out in the center of the city. The Germans broke their troops into pieces and continued to penetrate into the buildings on both sides of the bridge ramp. The snipers who occupied the church tower in advance were also locking in through the flames of their barrels.

prey.

For the 2nd Battalion that stood on the north bank of the bridge, they were surrounded by enemies from both sides. The German troops guarding the south side of the bridge began to fire mortars for frontal interference, while the enemy's small forces attacked from the rear and compressed their own positions.

Lu Li and others who were guarding the top floor of the school heard gunshots coming from all directions.

Facts have proved that between nine o'clock and ten o'clock, there was only a temporary calm. The fighting broke out again, and it was fierce. It seemed that every soldier was involved, either fighting alone or forming a temporary combat group to fight the enemy to the death.

.

Because he was standing at a high place, Lu Li could overlook the whole situation. He saw a soldier whose whole body was on fire and rolling crazily on the ground. He was hit by a phosphorus-containing bomb. In such a situation, he could only wait to die.

Seeing this, Munch, who was squatting next to him, shivered, and his cigarette butt slipped into the hedge downstairs.

Suddenly, the hum of the car engine sounded, and four jeeps rushed into the school. They were Major Gough's escort. He had to get ahead of the Germans and join Lu Li as soon as possible.

"Don't be nervous, that's one of our own!"

At this time, Lu Li saw that Munch had put his hand on the machine gun trigger, and quickly turned around and held it down.

Major Gough, who was sitting in the passenger seat, did not know that the noncommissioned officer he wanted to see had saved his life before they met.

A few minutes later, a group of people met at the entrance of the school corridor. Looking at the unexpected nine extra people, Gaofu felt that God had treated him well.

"Who are you?" The major was eager to know which army the team in front of him came from, because Frost claimed that there were only three people guarding the school.

A thought came to mind: after he left, the first and third battalions broke through the enemy's defense lines and began to arrive in Arnhem city one after another.

"Royal Engineers."

After saying that, Captain McKay asked in a deep voice: "Sir, there are only so many soldiers left around me, what are the plans next?"

The previous sentence disillusioned Major Gough, but he quickly adjusted his mentality and began to arrange tasks.

"You continue to stand here, while my escort team will disperse to the back of the school and lurk in those three houses."

Looking at the sixteen soldiers behind him, Lu Li couldn't help but frown. Although the three buildings were not as large as the school, it was a bit reluctant to use so many troops to hold the position. Frankly speaking, it was a bit reluctant.

Perhaps sensing Lu Li's doubts, Major Goff added: "The jeep is equipped with two 75mm howitzers and three flamethrowers."

"When necessary, we can provide you with fire support."

Obviously, this kind of weapon configuration is undoubtedly luxurious, and Lu Li's worries are somewhat unnecessary.

"Does anyone have any questions?" Goff pulled out his pistol from the holster, "please ask it now while you still have the chance. You'll be busy next time."

"Major, I have a question!" Monk raised his hand, "How can we keep in touch without communication tools?"

"Sir, you don't even have the strength to shout?"

After saying that, Gaofu glanced at this guy and walked outside first.

A qualified commander will make reasonable judgments based on the battle situation, and there is no need to contact him at all, because when he senses that something is wrong through the telescope and the sound of explosions, he will naturally provide support.

If it weren't for this guy's amazing performance when using the machine gun in the afternoon, Lu Li would have suspected that there was a spy among the Red Devils who came here specifically to hold him back.

After all, even more magical things happen from time to time, such as Hughis sneaking into a pack of wolves and becoming the king.

"Guys, it's time to work, cheer up!" Miller put on his helmet and walked over grabbing a rifle.

That's what war is like.

Wounded soldiers also need to fight before surrendering or losing the ability to fight.

However, Captain McKay assigned different tasks according to the severity of the injury.

Miller and three other paratroopers with limited mobility went to the top floor to monitor the enemy's situation. The flamethrower brought by Lu Li was also handed over to them. Lu Li continued to form a combat team with Henry and Monk to defend the teaching building and

Protect the safety of wounded soldiers.

As for Captain McKay, he will lead five brothers who can normally participate in the battle to fight the enemy in the hedges, school buildings, and other outbuildings outside the building.

Soon, the reconnaissance team dispersed again. Lu Li picked up a cup of freshly brewed hot tea and sipped it while looking around through the broken glass window.

Behind him is Munch. This guy is setting up a machine gun in the corridor and constantly adjusting the direction so that the barrel of the gun is facing the entrance of the corridor.

"Boss, aren't you worried?"

Henry walked to the portable stove, put the teapot on it, and prepared some hot stuff to warm himself up. After all, to become a sniper, a big heart is essential.

"What are you worried about? As long as you don't encounter enemy armor, your position will not be lost."

Lu Li's tone was firm, even if he didn't give an explanation, he could still convince the two people behind him.

However, he knew in his heart that the reason why he dared to say this was—
