Man in World War II: The Fall of an Empire!

Chapter 15 The Battle of Waves ([-])

After platoon leader Ratzel received the mission, everyone began to prepare for action.

As exempt soldiers, they are among the best in the platoon.

And the strength shown by William is considered by everyone to be the best among the best.

The mud on his body has dried. It was mud from the barn aqueduct.

There are no traces of new clothes on the limestone military uniforms.

Some are only in the form of being wasted in the flames of war.

"Machine gun cover! The first squadron assaults, the second squadron follows up."

Second Lieutenant Ratzel squatted next to the machine gunner with a pistol and glanced at the soldiers behind him and shouted.

A group of soldiers rushed out first and launched the attack.

The second class also followed closely behind.

"Spread out! Are you idiots?"

The soldiers in front were only one meter apart.

William, who was squatting behind him, cursed angrily.

Before the soldiers who heard William's curse had time to disperse, they heard the sound of the Maxim heavy machine gun.

Da da da!Da da da!
An old-fashioned Maxim heavy machine gun from World War I was firing continuously.

The bullets kept bouncing off dirt and clods on the ground.

Including the weeds on the roadside entering the city were blocked.

A German soldier who was unable to dodge was directly hit and fell to the ground.

Another soldier grabbed him by the collar and prepared to drag him back.

"Why bother with him? He would have died long ago with an 11.43 mm caliber bullet! Find cover."

As the highest-ranking officer in the front, William commanded several private soldiers in the front to avoid the attack.

If hit by an 11.43mm machine gun bullet, there is basically no way to save him.

So there is no need to stage any story of deep comradeship at this time.

11.43 mm corresponds to the .[-] caliber bullet, which is the bullet of the Thompson submachine gun.

Just one bullet from the Thompson submachine gun can kill a horse, which shows how powerful it is.

But no matter what, those were submachine gun bullets, and what we were facing now were .[-]-caliber machine gun bullets.

Its impact and destructive power are no worse than the MG34 machine gun.

One bullet can make a hole as big as a bowl.

The internal organs inside directly formed an air explosion, destroying multiple organs instantly.

Even if the top doctors came to rescue him, there would be no chance.

That's why William immediately asked the still-living privates to put down the fallen soldiers and find cover.

The soldiers rolled and crawled into the grass to hide.

One's own machine gun sounded from behind, and dense bullets were fired at the Polish army's Maxim heavy machine gun to suppress it.

"Stay here waiting to die? Get up and move on."

William shouted urgently.

The soldiers stood up and bent over again and headed towards the city.

The Polish city of Świbozin is only 90 kilometers away from the important Polish town of Poznań, with its transportation arteries extending in all directions. Armored troops have already passed by.

Now it is necessary for the follow-up infantry to quickly clear and open the supply lines.

As he approached, William discovered that the other party had actually built a trench on the edge of the city, although there was no solid defensive point.

But these foxholes are also very troublesome.

There were four or five Polish soldiers resisting in a trench more than [-] meters long.

Don't underestimate this mere foxhole. When you don't have any armor, you will find that it is not easy to attack.

There are light and heavy machine guns on the roof of the house about 30 meters behind it.

"Havertz! Mortar"

William lay down in the grass, feeling the bullets flying over his head, and then shouted to the back.

Havertz carried the mortar on his back, and another private followed him. They carried the mortar and artillery shells.

"Wait a minute William, I'll be here right away"

Havertz lay down in the grass and came towards William.

"Hey, man, I'm here."

Havertz came to William and said.William immediately untied the mortar barrel Havertz was carrying.

The 50mm gun barrel, as for the base, was temporarily abandoned.

"Go to the front and lie down, lie sideways!"

William urged Havertz.

"Is there any danger in this?"

Havertz asked worriedly.

"No, if you are injured, I will take good care of your wife from now on!"

William spoke.

"No need, I will take care of it myself!"

After Havertz lay horizontally in front, William picked up the barrel and gave a thumbs up for comparison.

This is a method used by rough people. Under normal circumstances, only the sight and angle adjustment are needed.

But now there is only a bare barrel in his hand.

The base and sight are both on the other gunner's body.

Following him was an ammunition hand.

Put the mortar directly on Havertz's waist.

Then he picked up a 50mm mortar shell and put it directly into the barrel.

But it didn't fly out with the bang as expected.

Could it be that this is about to explode?
No, because the German 50mm mortar can be triggered manually.

Only a manual trigger is required to fly out the mortar shell.

You can also turn off manual mode and use automatic mode.

After the shell enters it, it is manually triggered directly after William takes aim.

The ejection of the firing pin directly triggers the mortar detonator and then triggers the booster explosive.

boom!
There was a dull sound, and a burst of smoke came out of the barrel.

There was an explosion on the distant roof.

Two Polish soldiers tumbled straight off the roof.

Then he fell heavily to the ground, and his body was covered with shrapnel.

He died before tumbling down.

A light machine gun was deformed and slid down the roof slope and fell to the ground.

After William saw that the light machine gun had been killed, he immediately continued to press the thimble down, preparing to fire another mortar shell.

boom!
Just when William was about to continue the bombardment, a 75mm short-barreled infantry gun from the rear exploded directly at the second-floor window where the Polish machine gun was located.

The huge explosion engulfed the three people inside, and then a fire broke out inside.

Smoke and dust rose into the sky, and the sound of machine guns disappeared.

Upon seeing this, everyone immediately stood up and began to charge.

After William threw the mortar to Havertz, he immediately picked up the rifle and began to charge.

boom!boom!
While advancing, they fired, constantly suppressing the Polish soldiers in the skirmish line.

The intensive firepower prevented the Polish soldiers from raising their heads. They could only pull the bolt and shoot randomly outside.

Whichever one is hit is unlucky.

William reached directly to the edge of the trench with a sliding shovel, and then rolled into the skirmisher line.

He quickly drew his pistol and shot three Polish soldiers to death.

Bang bang bang!Bang bang bang!
Almost every Polish soldier fired two or three shots, hitting vital places.

9mm bullets are quite powerful at close range.

The three fell to the ground and died immediately.

Looking at the three dead people, William breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly an M24 grenade was thrown over.

"Who threw the grenade?"

William fluttered towards the outside of the skirmish line and went straight out, then rolled up and cursed.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I, I didn't see you in there"

One of the privates spoke nervously.
