A Weird Theater That Started In London

Vol 2 Chapter 19: Lion Route

   "Sir, right here."

   Talking, Lu Li came to the front of the map and drew a circle with his fingers: "Between Wolfheze Village and Osterbeck, there are enemy armored forces."

In order to make the statement more credible, the superior Munch took the initiative to stand up and reminded: "In order to capture us, that unit had sent a Cheetah tank destroyer, four military motorcycles, and twenty-five soldiers. ."

   And this means that the enemy has more heavy firepower weapons. With only a dozen jeeps and some artillery, it is difficult to make a difference.

   I don’t know when, Munch has become a pessimist. To be precise, he should have become a steady person. He hoped that Major Gough would be more cautious.

   Lu Li thought the same way, after all, there was no need to make meaningless sacrifices.

   After a moment of silence, Major Gough turned to the map and said in a deep voice: "Sergeant, I think I'll go over and take a look in person."

   Hearing this, Lu Li tried to stop him, but what the Supreme Commander said next was irrefutable.

   "Don't forget, we are an investigation company."

   The division’s expectation for this team is: arrive at the bridge, launch a raid to seize the bridge, and then stick there like a nail, standing by for help.

   But his job has never changed, investigating the enemy's situation, solving them as much as possible, and clearing obstacles for the entire brigade.

   "Well, let me divide it into nine more paratroopers for you, and form a reconnaissance team, starting from the south and advancing along the lion route."

   The heavy burden fell on Lu Li's shoulders again.

   Major Gough believes that since there are enemy obstructions between the Jaguar Route and the Tiger Route, the Lion Route will be relatively calmer.

   Thinking of this, the commander jumped off the car cover and slapped his hands, his tone of voice could not be rejected: "If there is no objection, then go to the logistics office to pick up the vehicle and ammunition and start the action."

   "As you wish, sir."

   Lu Li raised his hand to salute, and Major Gough nodded in return, and assigned nine paratroopers to cooperate with the three advance members of the second battalion.

   Due to the excellent performance of the transport plane driver, none of the jeep used for the assault was lost. Most soldiers have a place to sit, so safety is guaranteed to a certain extent.

   and the major’s adjutant, Captain David, gave the temporary unit a list: three jeeps, three Bren-style light machine guns, and twenty-four individual medical supplies.

   As for food, fuel, and ammunition, at Lu Li's request, they also got a double share, which could last for at least five days.

   Two o'clock in the afternoon.

   A large number of transport planes hover in the sky, they are waiting for the advance troops parked on the wasteland to leave.

At the same time, many soldiers got on the jeep and drove towards the Jaguar route one after another, but Lu Li was still making the final fight: "If you can, you'd better give us some anti-tank equipment, such as that thing. Two will do."

  PIAT, an infantry anti-tank launcher, is about one meter long and has an effective range of 91 meters for attacking tanks. It can also be used as a light mortar against houses and buildings. The effective range will be increased to 300 meters.

   The most important thing is that it will not produce a tail jet when launching, can shoot in a narrow space, and will not expose the location of the shooter due to smoke.

   Very practical individual equipment, it is worth asking for it by Lu Li.

   In fact, Major Gough didn't plan to bring these things. He had a lot of artillery, so he decided to leave a few jeeps and heavy firearms in the landing area for later use.

   But Lu Li thought it was completely unnecessary, because the question of whether the reconnaissance troops had a chance to come back needed a big question mark.

   At this time, a hurried horn sounded, urging Captain David, who is in charge of logistics, to board the car quickly, so he shrugged and said helplessly: "Well, I wish you all the best."

   Frankly speaking, he had never seen such a cautious non-commissioned officer.

   As soon as the voice fell, the hunk Miller rushed forward, picked up the two transmitters, and then stuffed them into the back of the jeep and tied them up.

   A series of actions are like flowing water. Obviously, this guy had planned to take them away.

After getting his wish, Lu Li walked quickly to the front of the convoy, opened the door of the cab, and started the ignition. The first officer was sitting with the machine gunner Munch, and in the back were two paratroopers who had just met: Henry the sniper and the correspondent Jie. Rui.

   As for the other eight people, they were seated in the other two jeeps and kept a distance of 20 meters to avoid being caught fire by the enemy.

   Now, the situation is extremely clear.

   The car where Lu Li was in the lead, was exposed to the forefront, and, if not unexpected, would be the first to be sniped by the Germans.

   "Let's go, fighting alone again."

   "Boss, for the first time, I feel that sometimes too high a rank is not a good thing. You must stand up at a critical moment."

   Munch is making notes in his personal diary while talking to Lu Li who is driving. He has such a personality that he always can't take time off.

   Correspondent Jerry with the walkie-talkie on his back also had some words. He smiled and replied: "No, it has nothing to do with military rank, high-ranking soldier."

After    finished speaking, he looked at Munch's arm because of the embroidered ranks there.

   Of the four people in the car, there are three non-commissioned officers. The sniper Henry is a sergeant, and the correspondent is a corporal.

   In this combination, it is really strange that Munch is an extra soldier.

   "Well, three sirs, Monk, the honorable soldier, asked to speak."

   "Ask for permission!" Lu Li replied ~www.novelmt.com~Sir. There were also many non-commissioned officers in the two cars behind. "

   "That's right!"

   "In that case, why would I, a soldier, sit in the officers' car?"

   Lu Li was taken aback for a moment, and he glanced at the goods from the side of the eye, Munch smiled, obviously joking.

   So he asked back: "What do you think is the reason? First-class soldier Francis Munch."

   Munch said triumphantly: "You think I am an excellent soldier, worthy of trust, sir!"

   Hearing this, Henry, the sniper who has always been very indifferent, finally got an expression. He twitched the corners of his mouth, and looked like he wanted to talk, probably because he felt that the guy in front of him was overconfident.

  Actually, a machine gunner sits in each jeep, which is standard equipment. The remark just now was purely for Munch to add to himself.

  Or, he is deliberately enlivening the atmosphere.

   Lu Li hates nervousness very much. If appropriate jokes can ease the dullness and draw the distance, then he is so happy-the car still has a break-in period, let alone people.

Therefore, after driving the jeep onto the highway, Lu Li slowed down a little, and said with a serious analysis: "In the eyes of German snipers, soldiers with machine guns are worth more than us, so it doesn’t matter who brings them. As long as both hands are still alive, you can. Just hold the machine gun to your chest."

   As he said, Lu Li tilted his head to look at Munch, and said every word: "In other words, you are just a tool person."

   "Just have a hand."

   There was laughter suddenly in the back row.

   Through the walkie-talkie, all the scouts still in the communication range heard this episode.

   "Toolman Munch, remember to hang bulletproof steel plates on your chest."

   Major Gough’s voice sounded.
