A Weird Theater That Started In London

Vol 2 Chapter 3: Action begins

   "Strive to fight and occupy the target, fight to protect the vehicle, as long as there is a breath, fight to protect yourself."

   chanted the slogan that I did not know many times, and at this moment, it became very imposing.

Hearing that, Urquhart read Shakespeare’s long poem in the tone he thought was the most colorful and most touching: "Anyone who has passed today’s level and is safe and sound/home, whenever he mentions On this day, you will stand in awe!"

   "The time has come, children, take up arms, carry them on your shoulders, and prepare to assemble."

   Until this moment, everyone standing in the duty room still felt unbelievable, because the airborne operation they had been looking forward to had finally arrived.

   Of course, Lu Li is not included.

   In fact, that strange memory left him in a daze.

  According to the exercise plan, no, it has been confirmed now, that is not an expectation, but an action!

   The first paratrooper brigade will take the lead in the airborne as the advance force. The three battalions under it will rendezvous in Arnhem, and the three teams will advance from different directions—

The second battalion of Lieutenant Colonel John Frost got the primary goal of this operation: marching along a road branch near the north bank of the Rhine, and capturing the giant road bridge. Not only that, but on the way, they will also occupy The railway bridge to the west of the ferry;

  The third battalion will be led by Lieutenant Colonel Fitch and will move along another road that also leads to Arnhem, approaching the bridge from the north to support the second battalion.

   Once the two battalions successfully airborne, the first battalion of Lieutenant Colonel D. Dobby will march along the northernmost route and occupy the northern highlands.

   In order to facilitate the distinction, these three routes are named as lion, tiger, and jaguar respectively.

   Among them, Lu Li will take the lion route as a non-commissioned officer of the second battalion.

   He knew that this was a failed operation, with heavy casualties. Besides, the blood-colored lettering on the blackboard still shuddered when thinking about it now.

   "Notify others immediately."

   At this time, Major General Urquhart issued the last order, then turned and left.

   Immediately afterwards, cheers and whistles sounded, and the big guy Miller slammed into Lu Li's shoulder and said with a smile: "Man, what are you trying to do? Pack your bags and prepare to go to Holland for vacation."

   "Did the counterattack really begin?"

   Lu Li muttered to himself, until now, he still feels that he is in a state of confusion.

   "Of course, the teacher personally announced this order, can it still be an April Fool's Day joke?"

   The tall speaker always shrugs his shoulders and seems to be an optimist.

   "Cheer up, Lu Li!"

   "It is said that the enemy stationed near Arnhem is a group of gangsters composed of milk powder teenagers and bicycle elders. They are almost crushed. There is nothing to worry about. Let's go!"

   Surrounded by everyone, Lu Li walked out of the duty room. At this moment, he was forced to choose his fate, thinking about how to survive.

   At the same time, soldiers crowded in tents and Nissan-style mobile homes are gathering together to play cards.

  Since yesterday, they have been told that there may be a large-scale exercise in the early hours of the 17th, and all the staff are prohibited from sleeping and drinking.

   Therefore, there is no other way except to kill the boring waiting time in this way.

   "Francis, you won so much money, how do you plan to enjoy it?"

   Twenty-year-old Francis Munch had good luck. From the beginning, he continued to win money, and the Dutch guilders piled up in front of him increased.

Hearing someone ridiculing himself, Munch pinched out his cigarette, spit out a thick smoke, and smiled: "If, I said, if our division is indeed selected, then I will ask everyone to have a good time in Arnhem after the battle. !"

   Frankly speaking, almost everyone thinks that once a fight occurs, it will only last for 48 hours. Therefore, the tent is filled with laughter.

   Suddenly, the curtain was lifted.

   Several eyes converged on the person.

   "Quiet! Pack your bags! We will set off in an hour and a half."

   Lu Li glanced at the colorful banknotes on the table, feeling increasingly uneasy.

   So, he said in a deep voice, "Attention, this is not an exercise. Everyone should bring equipment, food, and sufficient ammunition."

"Very good…"

  The soldiers cheered in unison, until they saw that Lu Li's face was very bad, they suppressed their expressions and raised their hands in salute.

   "After half an hour, go to the designated area to gather according to the pre-determined plan, and remember to take the airsickness medicine in advance."

  The words fell, Lu Li turned and walked towards the personal tent.

   As a grassroots non-commissioned officer of the second battalion, he manages a squad, that is, two combat teams.

  If the parachuting goes smoothly and no one is missing, then the eight people in the tent will accompany them on missions until they die or are captured.

   cumbersome or helpful?

   Lu Li is also not clear.

   Now, he has to pack up his personal equipment and prepare for the upcoming fierce battle.

   A few minutes later, a loud voice came from the non-commissioned officer's tent.

   "Am I crazy?"

Miller, the big guy in charge of the second class, was stunned. After UU read www.uukānshu.com for a while, he yelled like chanting poetry: "Combat camouflage nets, anti-collision helmets, compasses, ammunition, geotechnical equipment, carrying bags Add prepared ammunition...Hawking mines, grenades, smoke bombs, gamma bombs, explosives, water bottles...parachutes, parachutes, life jackets."

   "There is also a swollen leg pocket!"

  In my memory, he had a good relationship with him, so Lu Li had a temper and asked, "Miller, what are you going to say?"

   "These things add up almost heavier than me, man, are you going to overturn the enemy platoon by yourself?"

   Miller looked puzzled.

   He even thought he had to take Lu Li to see a doctor, so as not to have problems when parachuting—this guy was so nervous that he brought such heavy equipment to board the plane.

   "Bring more supplies, better than..."

   Lu Li stopped talking, feeling that he shouldn’t say dejected things at important junctures, so he had to change his words: “You can bring more food. It’s good to take a walk and eat snacks.”

   After finishing speaking, he carried the leg bag to the wooden box behind him, opened a gap, and glanced at it secretly.

   It turned out to be antibiotics that I bought in advance, but I didn't expect to be placed here by the school.

  ...

   At two o'clock in the morning, the rumbling sound of the flight formation when it took off caused the cows and horses around the base to panic and scurry around.

   A few dozen minutes later, the fleet flew over London. It happened that a young drummer was sitting in his courtyard, performing for his family and neighbors.

   The sound of the high-speed rotation of the propeller interrupted the performance. He raised his head and struck out a symbolic drumbeat:

   Three dots and one line. In Morse code, that is the V word, which represents victory.
