    Haight knew very well that releasing the American prisoners of war would definitely lead to a massive counterattack by the American army. He did not immediately evacuate the area. Instead, he ordered his few subordinates to immediately set up defenses in the woods on both sides of the American station and the road not far away.  .  <-¡·

    Staff officer Major Gadluo said: "Colonel, we"

    Colonel Hayter stopped Major Gadlo and said: "Don't say anything. For the sake of the great Germany and our head of state, we can only stay here to contain the enemy and make our general attack smoother!"

    "I understand!" The Great Master

    "As long as you understand!" Colonel Hayter said to Major Gadreau, turned to the soldiers who were desperately digging trenches, and encouraged him loudly:

    "My children, I have just received news that yesterday, on the first day of the general offensive, our brother troops captured two American regiments in an organized manner, which was a force of 7,000 people. Our offensive  It's very violent. The Americans are constantly retreating, and our troops are attacking here in a big way! Now, we occupy this important position and control the only road to Bastogne! Cutting off the front and rear access of the US military, as long as  If we are firmly stuck here, our general attack will go more smoothly, and we will win faster! So you must dig our trenches deeper and longer before the enemy launches a large-scale attack on us, so that we can  Withstand the enemy's artillery fire! Only then can we hold on until our reinforcements arrive! Only then can we achieve greater victory on the European battlefield!"

    Of course, Colonel Hayter knows better than anyone whether there are reinforcements for this lonely army. These words are just to comfort and stabilize the morale of the army.  Just soldiers who have no idea of ??the future.  After hearing this sudden news.  All of a sudden, the disappointment of abandoning his comrades was completely lost!  Shout loudly: "Long live! Long live! Long live the F¨¹hrer!"

    "Okay, my children! Come on! We must let the Americans taste the power of our German paratroopers!"

    "Sir, don't worry! The trenches we dug are better than the standard! If the American devils dare to come, we will beat them until they run away!" A soldier replied loudly.

    "Well, great! What's your name?"

    "Sir, my name is Durado!"

    "I remember you. Sergeant Durado! Do your best, boy!"

    The German Army in World War II was a family-style army. Senior officers were equivalent to the parents of an army. They believed that their soldiers were actually equivalent to their own children, so no matter it was training.  Whether in combat or in life, an officer is like a nanny, carefully caring for every soldier under his command. The soldiers also respect and trust their superiors very much, and affectionately call them their fathers or brothers in their hearts, so  The cohesion of the German army during World War II was extremely strong.  Therefore, in war, as long as officers do not make command errors, the astonishing combat effectiveness of German soldiers is often more than double that of the Allied forces of the same size.  Of course, the death rate of German officers was higher than that of the Allies.

    Colonel Hayter called Major Gadlo who was standing aside.  Pointing to the deeper dense forest with his finger, he said: "With this dense forest, it is enough to cover our existence. Hum, if our numbers were not too small, our positions should be set deeper and achieve a hierarchical configuration. There is absolutely no problem in delaying for four days!"  "

    Of course Major Gadlo's staff knew that this was Colonel Hayter's last resort, and sighed: "It's just that, for the soldiers, the battle will be even more cruel!"

    As for why Colonel Haight did not choose to use the US military garrison to form a defense line, he had some considerations.  Covered areas are compared to open areas, and troops often distinguish battles in built-up areas and forests from open areas of cleared or grass-covered plains.  Modern armies usually consider the latter kind of fighting situation on open plains as normal, while urban fighting or forest fighting are classified as special situations.

    Of course, this division of terrain into sheltered areas or open areas is based on the possible distance between the opposing forces and is not static.  Combat troops tend to engage in close combat in sheltered areas rather than open plains. Therefore, in later military exercises, large-scale exercises of tanks and troops on plain exercise grounds were only an ideal state, because unless absolutely necessary, no one would  I will have a game with you at a venue like this8ddd;Li, in an offensive formation, rushed forward with alternate cover!

    Soon, their figures were swallowed up by the dense forest, but not for a long time. I could clearly hear the gunshots of the fierce exchange of fire between the two sides here. Due to the limitation of the field of vision, despite Mr. Brigadier's calm appearance, there was a faint trace of  An indescribable anxiety.  He kept talking to the radio: "How is your situation? How many enemies have you encountered?"

    The voice coming from the radio was like the same voice: "We encountered a German obstruction! We encountered a strong German obstruction! My attack was defeated by the German counterattack!"

    "Keep contact, keep keeping contact! Don't let up on the enemy! They don't have much heavy firepower!"

    Fighting makes everyone feel that time passes so slowly, except for non-stop shooting, just shooting!  Soon the troops involved in the attack were shouting: "We're out of ammunition! We're out of ammunition!"

    Mr. Brigadier General looked at his watch and saw that half an hour had passed. He nodded to the combat staff beside him. The combat staff immediately understood and ordered the troops at the front to withdraw immediately to prepare ammunition and rest.  Soon, the troops who participated in the probing attack slowly retreated from the firefight with their tired bodies and many wounded.

    With the attack of the first wave of probing troops, Mr. Brigadier General¡¯s military map quickly showed the enemy¡¯s defense arrangements and firepower density deployment on the opposite side.  The brigadier general touched his chin and stared at the map for a long time. He seemed to notice something and said to the staff officer: "Judging from the first wave of probing attacks, the enemy's strength is only about one to two companies. This is consistent with our intelligence about the enemy.  At least one battalion doesn¡¯t match up! I think the Germans haven¡¯t shown their strength yet!¡± (To be continued.)
