237. We - on the offensive! (740

"We are retreating, the 1st Army is retreating, the 3rd Army is retreating, and the 7th Army is retreating. But we are attacking!"

This is a telegram from Skeleton Baron Ernst Breme to Commander-in-Chief of the 7th Army, Von Cassel.

Everyone is retreating, but - we are attacking!

When Ernst's telegram was sent to General Kassel and to all the senior officers and staff of the 7th Army, everyone was moved.

Just as Ernst said when he was just a lieutenant:

We - on the offensive!

In an instant, General Kassel's eyes turned red. What kind of soldier is this! What kind of spirit is this!

Five major offensives organized by Germany failed, but Ernst Breme did not lose:

We - on the offensive!

Germany needs such a spirit! Germany needs such soldiers:

We - on the offensive!

"They are attacking!" General Kassel said this with a trembling voice: "But we are retreating! The only German iron-blooded soldiers are left Ernst!"

"General, attack!"

"Attack, General!"

"General Kassel, we can still fight, and we can launch the sixth offensive!"

General Kassel shook his head silently and smiled sadly: "No, we do not have the ability to launch the sixth offensive, and I do not have the right to do this. The enemy's counterattack will begin soon, and I must obey the command of the commander for the future of Germany."

The headquarters is silent

Only that voice still sounded in everyone's ears:

We - on the offensive!

"Col. The 30th Infantry Division of the US Army is approaching us." Guo Yunfeng said indifferently with a piece of grass in his mouth: "We will soon see those Americans."

"Four swords, sorry," Wang Weiyi suddenly said this.

"What's wrong, Colonel?" Guo Yunfeng was a little surprised.

Wang Weiyi clicked behind: "I asked Rommel and the others to evacuate, leaving only you."

"Hey, Colonel, how could you say such things?" Guo Yunfeng interrupted the colonel: "You have to know that you saved my life, and I have to follow you no matter how dangerous we have experienced things like this. No one in the Somme River can do anything to us. What are the things that Americans have to fear?"

"Yes, what are the things Americans are afraid of?" Wang Weiyi smiled: "Si Dao, let's perform a miracle here."

With your own brother, there is nothing to be scary!

"Steck, Boncrerere, Sean!"

"arrive!"

"I'm going to divide the team into three formations again. I command the first team, Steck, you are the temporary captain of the second team, Boncrerere, you are the temporary captain of the third team."

"Yes, Colonel."

"Shawn, I will give you all the opportunity to command and form a machine gun team." Wang Weiyi called his three old subordinates to his side: "Smith didn't take us to heart, so let's give him a good look. Steck, you and Sean stay to block the enemy head-on. All firepower is on the way, don't care, I ambush the bullets on the left wing, and when the Americans arrive, I will teach them a lesson!"

"Yes, Colonel!"

"Boncrerere!" Wang Weiyi's eyes fell on Boncrererere: "You personally select a group of accurate gunshots. After I launch an attack, you will mainly kill their officers!"

"Okay, Colonel, leave it to me."

"All submachine guns are handed over to my first team for use. I must destroy the enemy during the first assault!" Wang Weiyi's voice was so calm: "When the Americans are in chaos, all the teams will attack at the same time, completely disrupting their establishment. Remember, we only have 3,000 people, we must fight harder and not let the Americans react!"

"Col. We have confidence in fighting with you!"

Wang Weiyi licked his dry lips, and a hint of sarcasm appeared coldly at the corner of his mouth.

The Americans who have just set foot on the European battlefield are just recruits who have not fought for a long time. This time, they are just giving them a lesson and telling them that this is the real battlefield:

A battlefield that will bleed and die!

Brigadier General Smith didn't think so. As an outstanding student from West Point, it was not particularly difficult to win on the European continent.

It is hard to say about the failure of the Germans, but Smith is sure that the failure of the Skeleton Baron is near.

"General, the positions deployed by the Germans were discovered in front of him."

"Stop moving forward." Smith waved his hand: "Send a reconnaissance team to carefully figure out the situation of the Germans. The troops stop moving forward and be ready for battle!"

"Stop moving forward and prepare for battle!"

The 30th Division stopped moving forward. Smith felt a little excited. The first battle of the US military in the European battlefield would start with him.

The first victory will also start with yourself! This will be a victory that can be recorded in history!

Unfortunately, the reconnaissance team did not bring any good news to Smith. The Germans were very strict in defense and had not yet approached them, and the machine gun had already shot them back.

"Bluff." Smith twitched his nose with disdain: "The troops disperse, the artillery is ready, and the attack will be launched in 20 minutes!"

Several howitzers and some mortars brought the prelude to the first battle in Europe

The shells fell to the German positions and fought a little loosely. The artillery soldiers, like the other soldiers of the 30th Division, were on the battlefield for the first time. In their opinion, this battle was not much different from the exercises that had been conducted before.

On the other side, Wang Weiyi was always observing the movements of the Americans.

He couldn't understand it too much. At this time, the US military had no combat power at all. The supplies they brought to the European battlefield even included toilet mats.

Any powerful combat force matures on the battlefield. Now, it is the most favorable time to severely attack Americans.

The scattered shelling took place for 20 minutes, and the American offensive began.

The formation is well maintained, and the usual training is still very effective, but some things are never taught on the training ground, such as:

die!

As they gradually approached the enemy's position, the Americans suddenly felt like they had never been before

Quiet, the German position opposite is too quiet and a terrible tranquility

Then, the gunshot pierced the silence

All the machine guns rang out together, like a huge lawn mower crushing the grass, and the Americans fell down like rows of grass under the crushing of the lawn mower.

A storm-like blow!

Machine guns taught Americans one thing on the battlefield: the quieter the battlefield, the more terrible crisis it is!

Americans are in chaos

"Mobie, save me, save me!"

"Stevenson, are you there? I can't see you!"

"Machine gun, machine gun, I need the cover of machine gun!"

No one knows who is calling whom, and no one knows what it is calling.

They only knew that the machine guns on the opposite side were shooting at them as if they were crazy. The degree of bullet density made them have no way to fight back.

Some Americans ran back in a panic, while others crawled away from this terrible battlefield little by little.

In short, the Americans were completely defeated after less than ten minutes of the first attack.

Then, the battlefield fell into terrible silence again

Now, no one thinks such quietness is interesting. In this silence, life-threatening bullets will be shot out anytime and anywhere.

Those Germans are hiding behind this terrible quiet

Smith did not expect that his first battle in Europe would end in this way. Before his soldiers could fire a few shots, they were shot back by the damn Germans.

However, the 30th Infantry Division threw down dozens of corpses.

God, those children followed them to fight, but now they can never go back.

Brigadier General Smith, with a pale complexion, was never willing to fail like this. He was a somewhat superstitious person and firmly believed that everything must be a good start, and the same was true for war.

No matter what, I have to bring something back today, otherwise it will be unlucky in the future.

Under Smith's inspiration, the Americans who were regaining their spirits began to launch a second attack! This attack seemed to be a little improved, and the American soldiers began to be extra careful.

As usual, one round of artillery fire was first prepared, but this time it took more than an hour. The American artillery did not care about how many shells they used, and the endless supply would arrive soon.

However, the Americans soon discovered that no matter how many shells they fired, the opposite position was still so quiet.

A kind of terrible quiet amid the sound of cannons.

The German soldiers were silently patient, they had to endure it, and now they had no support from artillery fire, and they had to wait until the Americans started attacking and teach them a hard lesson.

The machine gun has been properly hidden. Now every machine gun and every bullet is the treasure of the German soldiers.

No matter how fierce the cannon sounded, the German soldiers were filled with hope of victory, but this hope was brought to them by one person:

Colonel Ernst Bryme!

The Colonel is nearby, and he is waiting for the most appropriate time to give the Americans the most deadly blow!
