    "What? The Americans have already opened a hole in our body? Are they extending to our two wings?" Colonel Hayter was surprised by the speed of the US military's attack, and then nodded to the staff officer, Major Gadreau.  Then he said: "Yes, but ours is difficult to stick to! By the way, are we ready for our second plan?"

    Major Gadluo said: "It's done. The officers have already arranged the retreat route during the battle! Should we implement the second plan immediately?"

    Colonel Haite nodded and said: "The enemy has burst in, execute it immediately!"

    "yes!"

    The German army's defensive thinking is very clear. It is to resolutely defend every inch of tactical points and fight the US military with the belief that every inch of territory must be fought. Therefore, in the two days of fighting on the 18th and 19th, the entire route to Bastogne was inevitable.  The areas on both sides of the road had changed hands several times, and were littered with the bodies of dead officers and soldiers from both sides. Colonel Haight had fewer than 200 men around him, and all ammunition and rations were about to be exhausted.  <-¡·

    In order to deal with the continuous attacks by the US military, Colonel Haight ordered the troops to move deeper into the woods in order to avoid the disadvantage in firepower. He used the small space in the woods to create a local combat advantage for the US military and disrupt the US military's attack.  In the final analysis, Colonel Haight wanted to make full use of hand-to-hand tactics to kill the enemy in hand-to-hand combat, so that the enemy would be frightened and forced to retreat. In addition, Colonel Haight had a last resort to kill the enemy.  This was Colonel Hayter's second last resort.

    "How far are the forward troops of the Sixth Armored Group from us now?" Colonel Hayter asked Major Gadreau.

    Major Gadluo replied cautiously: "Less than ten kilometers! However, the Sixth Army must insist on us holding on until tomorrow!"

    Colonel Haite sighed secretly: "Don't mention tomorrow, it's already good if we can persist in today's counterattack! Alas, is there still tomorrow?"

    After the U.S. attack force occupied the outer positions of the German woods, the U.S. artillery fire began to extend covering fire in depth. The impact point of some artillery shells was less than ten meters away from Colonel Haight.

    "Boom~" A violent explosion startled Major Gadluo who was in the artillery pit. Then a large amount of soil and gravel mixed with snowflakes fell on the simple cover made of wood on his head.  On the guard board.  There was a crackling sound.  Major Gadluo said urgently: "Colonel. Let's retreat immediately!"

    Knowing that he couldn¡¯t stay in this simple command room, Colonel Haite nodded, grabbed the MP40 submachine gun placed next to him and strode out. Several guards nearby followed him immediately.

    Major Gadluo called a soldier and said: "Make a booby trap here and leave it to the Americans!"

    The German soldier chuckled.  Said: "Yes, Major Gadluo! I will leave some souvenirs for the Americans!"

    Boom, another violent bombardment from an artillery shell!  Among the gunfire came Limberner's excited voice: "Captain, the Germans are retreating! They are retreating! We are pursuing them!"

    I was a little surprised that this attack went relatively smoothly, so I hurriedly warned: "Pay attention to the connection distance between the various units of the army. Don't let the Germans be caught off guard!"

    "clear!"

    Lin Bernard originally thought that there would be a fierce battle as a sharp knife force, and he was still a little worried. However, since the attack began, except for the strong blockage encountered at the edge of the woods, it seemed to be so smooth.  Judging from the situation on the battlefield, the enemy had to retreat step by step due to severe shortage of personnel and lack of ammunition. Lin Bernard could not help but be overjoyed.

    "Quick, quick. Quick! Use the enemy's bunker to attack!" Lin Bernard reminded the soldiers loudly.

    Lin Bernard¡¯s order.  There's nothing wrong with that, actually, in combat.  If you break into the opponent's position, the best move is to use the enemy's tunnels and fire bunkers to fight.  This point does not need to be reminded by Bernard Lin, experienced soldiers will also take the initiative to do so, but this time it caused a big disaster!

    Led by the sergeant, several attack teams carrying rifles bent down and ran along a section of trench left by the Germans. The leading sergeant only paid attention to the direction of the German army's movement on the opposite side, and did not pay attention to his feet.  Suddenly, he felt like there was some string or something tied down under his feet. He immediately knew something was wrong and shouted: "Watch your steps!"

    "Boom~" A huge explosion drowned the sergeant's figure. The sergeant only felt that his leg was smashed by a huge hammer, and then the huge force followed his bones and tore his abdominal cavity into pieces.  It was shattered, and then everything went dark, and I didn¡¯t know what was going on.

    Because the incident happened so suddenly, several other soldiers had no time to dodge and were also seriously injured and fell to the ground.x78b0;When the soldiers arrived, they kept crossing themselves on their chests, saying random things about thanking God and thanking the Virgin Mary.

    However, the enemy still laid mines in unprepared places to affect the attack formation of my troops and the distance between soldiers.

    "This looks like the enemy's headquarters!" At this moment, I was standing in front of a small anti-gun bunker, looking at some documents scattered inside and saying to myself.

    The signal corpsman stood behind me. When he saw that I wouldn't go in, he said, "I'll go in and tidy up. This can be used as the commander's temporary headquarters!" With that, he started to go in!

    "Don't go in! Be careful of the Germans' tricks! We don't need it, blow it up!"

    "Yes! Sir!" said the signal soldier.

    As the signal soldier threw a grenade into the explosion, there was another series of explosions!  The signal soldier immediately thought of his colleagues who were killed by booby traps before, and said with some fear on his face: "This, sir?"

    This matter was just an episode. Facing the battlefield situation, I judged: "Sure enough, the enemy does not have much ammunition to lay out minefields."

    And just when I was gradually letting go of my thoughts, another sudden news disrupted my offensive plan.

    "The Germans counterattacked!" I was surprised to see some German soldiers turn around and rush towards the US troops who were cautiously attacking with their shining bayonets!  No!  It was a group of German soldiers rushing towards me with bayonets in hand!  It turns out that all the enemy's retreats were to gather troops together, and the booby traps they laid were nothing more than disrupting the coordination distance and attack formation between our soldiers, and creating a short-term favorable space for their counterattacks.  At this moment, I had to admire the commanding ability of Colonel Haight in front of me.  Creating favorable opportunities in an unfavorable environment is indeed an excellent German officer!

    The attacking front of our army was caught off guard and was forced to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy. Some soldiers did not have bayonets installed on their rifles. They thought the rifles were in the way, so they took out their pistols and fired continuously. The German troops on the opposite side fell in response.  Seeing that this move was effective, other soldiers also used pistols to resist the German hand-to-hand combat. Although the resistance was advantageous, they were quickly overwhelmed when facing the German sea of ????people, and the German bayonets turned red!

    Seeing that the situation was not good, I immediately said decisively: "All units immediately used machine guns and rapid-fire weapons to cover the shooting. Everyone immediately moved towards me! The artillery platoon immediately carried out blocking bombing behind the enemy!"

    Seeing that the situation was critical, Lin Bonner and others immediately gathered the machine guns of each squad and placed them in front of them to intercept and fire. Then according to my order, the troops began to fight and retreat, retreating to the starting line, and then attempted to counterattack.  As for using the German positions, since many mines and booby traps had not yet been cleared, we had to give up the idea of ??resisting in the German positions.

    At this moment, the German mortars, which had not fired a single shot for a thousand years, actually started bombarding!

    "Oops! Damn cunning German devils! They actually left the shells at the last moment!" I only had this idea at this time!  (To be continued.)0; In hand-to-hand combat, some soldiers did not have bayonets installed on their rifles.
